Chapter Seventy-Five: Interrogation
Kugi Thirty-three and her subordinates were envious of Koha and Kotori. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Everyone was obviously born as an evil witch, and they were captured by the same person, but they became prisoners. Leaf and Bird explain to the witches that if they were the only ones captive, he would let them go. It's a pity that Mel still has Yishan and Euris by her side, as long as they are there, Mel can't make decisions freely.
Of course, this is only one side of the story of Xiaoye and Xiaoyu. In fact, if it weren't for Yishan and Euris, as well as their troops, Kugi Thirty-three would not have given up resistance immediately. Even if Maier can fight again, he will only have one person, and there will only be four people if he counts the three maids, so it will still be too difficult to deal with dozens of evil witches at once.
Even if Mel had the power to capture all the witches, he wouldn't necessarily do that. Because he only has three people in his hands, it is still too difficult to control dozens of people with the power of four people. Therefore, he will still choose to kill most of the evil witches and control the number of captives to less than ten, so that he can be sure to control these captives.
Therefore, the existence of Euris and Yishan saved the lives of the witches.
On July 14th, a day later, Xiao Ye and Xiao Bird came to the City Lord's Mansion to visit the prison again. But it wasn't just the two of them who came this time, but also Maier, Kiki, and Euris, who also brought two escorts. Maier and Euris came this time to interrogate Kugi Thirty-Three again to see if they could find more valuable information.
This matter was decided yesterday and has been approved by Yishan. Maier and Euris thought that Yishan would also come, but they did not see Yishan. The two waited for her outside the dungeon for a while before entering the dungeon.
The weapons and masks of the witches were confiscated, but the black and white witch costumes were still worn on them. So the moment he saw them, Maier mistakenly thought that a group of apprentice shrine maidens were being held in the dungeon, and he was shocked.
While frightened, a flash of inspiration flashed through Meier's mind.
Until now, it was unclear to Maier why the Great Shrine Maiden of Rimi Shrine had taken him to see the Xi Shrine. But now he has a guess that Rimi Shrine may have something to do with it.
If Rimi Shrine has something to do with this, shouldn't the Great Witch take me to see the Xi Shrine Maiden? Because as long as I see the costume of the apprentice shrine maiden, it is easy to associate the evil shrine maiden with the apprentice shrine maiden, and thus suspect the shrine.
In order to test the relationship between the shrine and the witch, Maier postponed the interrogation. He left the girls in the dungeon, told them to wait for him to come back, and then ran out of the dungeon without looking back.
After leaving the dungeon, Maier went directly to the station of the shrine maiden of Rimi Shrine, and asked the war witch on duty to inform Lan Ning that he had something to look for her. As soon as Lanning heard that it was Maier looking for him, he immediately came out.
"Mr. Meyer, are you looking for me?"
"Your Excellency, I would like to ask you to help me interrogate a few people."
The shrine maiden's station at the Rimi Shrine is far away from the gate of the Castle Lord's Mansion and the dungeon, and the shrine maidens in the station can't go out casually, so Lan Ning doesn't know that the evil witch is locked up in the dungeon.
"Judge? Is it a prisoner? ”
"Pretty much."
"But I'm not very good at it......"
"We're trying Irato this time, and I want to borrow your identity."
Shrine maidens have a high social status among the Ira, and ordinary shrine maidens are already in awe of them, not to mention the long shrine maidens in light purple petticoats. Lanning thought that Maier was trying to use her identity as a witch to scare the prisoners, so she happily followed Maier to the dungeon to see what kind of prisoners Maier was interrogating.
When he arrived in the dungeon, Lan Ning was stunned by the people in the prison.
Why are there so many apprentice shrine maidens locked up here?!
What the hell is going on?
The Xiaohu family captured a shrine?!
No. Even if the shrine is captured, there is a secret escape path near the apprenticeship camp. The location of the secret passage is known only to the Great Shrine Maiden, and once the shrine is breached, the Great Shrine Maiden will flee with the rest of the people and then burn the shrine down with a fire.
In that case, why did these apprentice shrine maidens appear in the dungeon of the Xiaohu family?!
Maier noticed Lanning's shocked look, but remained silent. He ordered a few witches in the dungeon and asked the dungeon guards to take them out and take them to the dungeon's interrogation room. Seeing this, Lan Ning couldn't stop it, it wasn't okay if he didn't stop it, it wasn't okay to ask Maier, and it wasn't okay if he didn't ask Meier, so he could only follow Meier closely, expecting him to take the initiative to tell him about it.
Lanning's appearance was not in the original plan, but Euris didn't say anything, just silently followed behind Meier, walked side by side with Lanning, and the three of them came to the interrogation room together.
The guards placed three chairs in the interrogation room, with Maier in the middle, Lanning and Euris on either side, and three maids, guards, and guards on either side. Compared to the slightly dimly lit dungeons, the interrogation room is much better. Lan Ning could see the witch's outfit more clearly, and then she panicked even more.
The shrine maiden costumes at each shrine are made by themselves, and although the styles are similar, there will be some differences in the details when making the shrine maiden costumes at different shrines, for example, the petticoat of the shrine maiden costume at Kamijin Shrine is a pleated long skirt with gold trim embroidered on the skirt and cuffs. And because the size of Rimi Shrine is too large, there are too many shrine maidens, and there are many shrine maiden costumes needed. In order to save costs, the shrine maiden costumes of Riya Shrine are not decorated without any decorations.
As the saying goes, when all people have their own characteristics, the absence of characteristics becomes a characteristics. Among the shrines in the Shinsekai, the only shrine that does not decorate the shrine costume is the Riya Shrine, so this has become the characteristic of the shrine maiden costume at the Satomi Shrine.
Isn't this our apprentice shrine maiden?!
If all these evil witches put on their masks, Lan Ning would probably never notice this. Because the mask of the evil shrine maiden is so dazzling, it is easy to draw people's attention to it, and then ignore the details of the shrine maiden costume.
Just when Lanning couldn't help but want to question Maier what he wanted to do, Maier opened up unhurriedly.
"Your Excellency the Witch Chief, these are the evil witches we captured in the territory of Liangyue City. We've interrogated them once, and in the last one they confessed that they belonged to a place called the Black Shrine. ”
"Black Shrine?!"
Lanning had never heard of such a shrine - or rather, no one would name it with the word "black." Because black represents the unknown and death in Ira's culture, and the shrine is a place where people are guided by thought, how is it possible to name oneself after black?
Lan Ning didn't even notice that the evil witch shouldn't be regarded as a witch because she was so flustered.
"According to their confessions, this Black Shrine is the lair of the evil witch. But they said they didn't know the location of the Black Shrine, and I was afraid that they would lie, so I wanted you to ask them. ”
At this time, Lan Ning realized that the person kneeling in front of her was an outlaw called an evil witch, not a trainee witch, but this made her even more flustered.
The clothes of the evil shrine maiden are exactly the same as the shrine maiden costumes...... Could it be that the shrine has something to do with it?!
Mr. Meyer came to me to see my attitude on the matter?
No! No way!
Mr. Maier hadn't seen the Shrine Maiden again, so he couldn't have found out about it!
Mr. Meyer must not be allowed to know about this!
But before that......
Lanning wanted to believe that the Shrine had nothing to do with the Evil Shrine, but the Witch Shrine's outfit was exactly the same as the Shrine's Trainee Shrine's Witch Costume, which shook her faith.
She really wanted to get to the bottom of the facts, but she was outside the power center of the Rima Shrine, and even if she sent a letter back to ask, she wouldn't get a real answer.
Lan Ning moved his dry lips, and then realized that his fists were clenched, and the sweat had soaked the clothes on his back. She glanced at Maier quietly, and was slightly relieved to see that Maier did not look at herself.
In fact, Maier had noticed Lan Ning's strangeness a long time ago, but he didn't show it. Her surprised look made Maier think that Rimi Shrine should have something to do with the evil witch, but he wasn't sure yet, because Lanning was just a long witch who was sent to Twenty-Nine Village to manage the shrine maidens stationed outside. If Rimi Shrine really had anything to do with the Evil Witch, Lan Ning, who was outside the center of power, wouldn't necessarily know about it.
Seeing that Lanning didn't speak, Maier felt that she should have been too shocked and didn't know what to say. Maier didn't want Lanning to interrogate him, so he turned his gaze to Kugi Thirty-three.
"Is there anything else you'd like to explain besides what you said before?"
Kugi Thirty-three looked at Koba and Kotori, bit his lip lightly, and nodded as if he had made up his mind.
"My lord! I can swear allegiance to you to the great god of the apocalypse! ”
Leaves and Birds have told the witches about their stories, and everyone knows that they became Mair's maids after swearing an oath to the god of the world. After this, although they are still not considered free, Mel treats them like family, no different from having a free body.
In fact, even if Maier doesn't treat them like this, the identity of a maid is far stronger than that of a slave girl and **. Although the maid gave up her freedom, she was not discriminated against. Female slaves are different from **, if the former is sold to the power of the ancient people, they will live like animals, even if they are not sold to the power of the ancient people, they will not be regarded as complete people. As for the latter, they are discriminated against in any ethnic culture, and may live a better life than a female slave, but they are still not welcomed.
Kugi Thirty-three had already told them everything he knew, but Mai and the others did not release her and her men, which made Kugi Thirty-three very anxious. In order to prevent herself and her subordinates from living a miserable life, she can only beg Maier in this way.
"I will make my men loyal to you, and as long as you are willing to take us in, we will give you everything!"
Kugi's words caught everyone in the interrogation room off guard, and the most surprising were Koba and Kotori, who they didn't expect Kugi Thirty-three to say such a thing without Maier extending an olive branch to her.
Jiumu Thirty-Three really wants to surrender, but Maier and they can't read minds, and from their perspective, they will only feel that Jiumu Thirty-three has done nothing to save his life. Lanning and Euris already showed disgusted expressions, and Mel's brow furrowed slightly.
"If that's all you want to say, I'll have to have someone send you back."
"Your Excellency!"
Seeing that the guard had moved, Kugi Thirty-three slammed his head on the ground, and when he raised his head, his forehead had been broken, and bright red blood dripped down his cheeks.
"I can swear to the god of apocalypse! I have never hurt an innocent person! None of my men have harmed innocent people! We are forced to do bad things! If there is half a lie, may the great god of enlightenment kill me now! ”
The mere act of kowtowing to blood has already calmed everyone in the interrogation room. After she said her vow, the witch who had been brought in with her slammed her head to the ground, causing a few more blood marks to appear on the ground.
"Trust us!"
