Miguel Martinez, the former spokesperson of the Mage Tower Capital Department and now an outcast, sat in a small room in the Elena Anti-Investigation Bureau, silent. His hands were cuffed by heavy iron handcuffs, and the short thick iron chain in the middle of the handcuffs connected to the rim of an iron square table in the middle of the room. His feet were also shackled, and the other end of the shackles was connected to an iron ball the size of a human head, which was very heavy. And beneath him, a stool also made of iron, hard and cold, even in summer, without a trace of heat.

There was no one else in the room, but Martinez, who had been stripped of his clothes and had been checked inside and out, lest he kill himself. The only shelter he had now was a pair of yellow shorts and a short-sleeved shirt with the number 019 written on it, which was not clean, and there was blood stains in some places, exuding a faint fishy smell.

Martínez looked around and saw that there were many torture instruments hanging on the surrounding walls, and behind him, there were several large instruments that could not be seen clearly, which were also presumably used for execution. In the corner of the house there is a boiler, a tank of cold water, want to know what they are used for. In every sense of the word, it was a room for execution.

There were no clocks and no windows in the room, which was to blur the prisoners' concept of time and increase their sense of fear. Although Martinez is a capitalist and has been prosperous for many years, his experience in the Mage Tower and the power in his hands make him no stranger to this kind of place. If he doesn't explain, or doesn't cooperate, what kind of fate will he have, he can think of it with his ass.

After all, he killed the lover of the supreme leader of this power. And that supreme leader is likely to be a very hidden archmage.

"Squeak-"

The door to the cell was pushed open, and the head of the anti-investigation bureau, Sink Warren, pushed the door open, followed by two people with muscular bodies and fierce expressions. Martinez's gaze glanced over the faces of the three men, and he smiled meaninglessly.

Zinke glanced at Martinez, and there was no obvious emotion in his eyes. He pulled out his stool and sat down across from Martinez, and the two, one sitting next to Zinke, opened a notebook, and the other stood behind Martinez and fell silent.

"Tell me, what did you do the day the Chairman released the forbidden spell?"

Zink looked at Martinez in front of him and saw that his gaze did not have much emotion. It made his heart sink. Such a reaction shows that the person in front of him has a firm ideological consciousness. To deal with such a person, words alone will definitely not make him submissive. However, Zink did not intend to abandon the verbal interrogation because of this. The boss always said that there is a process for doing everything, and there is also a process for interrogation, salute first and then soldier, it is his Zink Warren's process, if it is not necessary, there is no need to adjust.

"I killed Daisy Richardson."

Martinez raised his head and looked at Zink in front of him, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face. But what made Zink a little faintly uncomfortable was that the smile was full of resentment.

"You killed Daisy Richardson? When, how, and were there any accomplices? Why kill her? ”

Although surprised by Martinez's cooperation and well-behaved, Zink still started to ask questions step by step. This is very different from his prediction, it stands to reason that since the man in front of him already has that kind of expression and consciousness, he should resist and not admit it. Is there any other purpose for being so refreshing now?

"I want to see Gastens", Martinez didn't think much about it. Ever since Luna had taken Rob Hedland in front of him, pushing him to the point of mortality, he had the idea now. And other than this idea, other people's reactions and opinions, mean nothing to him.

"This is not the place for you to bargain!"

Zink's voice was a little harsh. Want to meet Gastens? Why do you, a mortal man who killed Daisy, dare to have such extravagant hopes?

"Let me see Gastens", Martinez's voice still didn't rise and fall, "What I did, how I killed Daisy, who I killed Daisy with, why did I kill her, just let me see Gastens, I'll say it!" If you don't let me, kill me, and don't say anything! ”

Zink looked at Martinez in front of him, feeling a little depressed. It was not the interrogation he had planned, and the prisoner in front of him was not nervous or afraid, but began to make demands. And the answer he wanted was thrown directly by the person in front of him from the beginning, as if the answer was a worthless garbage.

"Naberti, go to punishment."

Zink did not answer Martinez's words, but spoke at Bertie Warren, who was standing behind Martinez. Naboti nodded, and pulled Martinez out of his chair. Martinez's body was in his hands, like a chicken that had no ability to resist, and he was left to do what he wanted.

"Sink Warren, I'm going to see Gastens, I'm going to see Gastens, I'm going to say everything. If you don't let me, kill me, and don't say anything! ”

Martinez's eyes were still fixed on Zink as he hung up by Naberti, and Zink looked at him with a blank face, watching the sturdy and professional executioner begin to execute.

Either way, he wouldn't let Martinez meet Gastens with just a few words. If you really want to see it, use your willpower to prove yourself.

In the dimly lit room, suppressed screams and muffled snorts gradually penetrated. The sound traveled through the walls of the room, in all directions, and eventually into another room not far away.

Luna, who was sitting in the other room, frowned, feeling a bad feeling when she heard the screams. Ever since she had made that decision a few days ago, she knew she was going to have to go through it. If it goes well, she will have no scruples after that, if it doesn't go well......

If it doesn't go well, she can't help it.

"That's your accomplice Martinez, they're on the line."

Sitting in front of Luna is Demont Weiz, the agent who has been in contact with Mellen. He looked at Luna in front of him, with a hint of banter in his eyes.

"If you don't explain it properly, you'll do the same. You are so beautiful, you shouldn't want to leave scars on your face and body, right? ”

"I said, I said."

Luna shuddered, opening her mouth to beg for mercy. DeMonte sat up straight and looked at her. The man sitting next to DeMonte opened his notebook, ready to take notes.

"That day, Martinez came to me......"

As for how to explain, Luna and Rob Hedland have already discussed it, truthfully describing her meeting with Martinez, but hiding the plot of her helping to do it. It is only said that Martinez saw him and asked her to help with the key but she refused, and the rest is unknown. Martinez, on the other hand, will also tell Gastens that it was him, intercept Daisy, and wrap Luna's sheets in the body and send it away for burial. It's not a very rigorous plan, but it's the most likely way to get out of suspicion right now. Luna didn't want to leave Gastens, her last hope of approaching the Archmage, and the Mage Tower didn't mind using her for an attempt. So, even if it's a plan that's not rigorous, she has to give it a try.

Luna's voice is soft, like a spring spring, and it is very nice. DeMonte listened attentively to what she had to say, asking a few questions from time to time. The staff beside him had memorized everything Luna said.

Time is passing little by little.

————————————

Two hours later, Gastens stood in front of Martinez. He looked at the man in front of him, who was covered in injuries and no longer looked like a human form, and was a little surprised by his willpower, and also a little curious about what he wanted to say to himself.

"Martinez, I'm here, what do you want to say?"

Martinez, who was slumped on the ground, looked up at Gastens. He raised his hand again, trying to wipe the blood from his eyes, but was unable to move. Zink grabbed a rag from the side and wiped it for him, and heard him laugh.

"Gastens, you're finally here......"

"I'm here, as you wish, what you want to say, you can say it now."

Gastens was also cold in his words, he had read Luna's confession, and combined with the previous evidence, it was almost possible to prove that the person in front of him was Daisy's murderer. And now, he was going to listen to what the man who killed Daisy was trying to say.

"Daisy Richardson, I killed you, but I didn't kill you alone. Without Luna Brewster's help, I couldn't have killed her. ”

As soon as Martinez spoke, he said something he should never have said. According to Rob Hedland's agreement, he will use his life to save Luna, and then exchange his family for a lifetime of happiness. However, Hedland still misjudged him Miguel Martinez after all. How could a person like him sacrifice himself for the sake of others?

Hearing this, Gastens and Zinke's expressions became serious. This is not the same as Luna's confession, there must have been one of the two of them who lied. And whoever lied, Gastens and Zinke were getting closer to the truth of the matter.

Martinez had already made up his mind that he would not waste time. He looked at Gastens and knew that he had made the right bet, so he began to tell without hesitation.

"We've coveted the technology for the production of Elena's weapons for a long time......"

Martinez was detailed and honest. He makes no secret of the fact that he asks Luna to kill Daisy, and he doesn't try to hide the fact that he is the one who did it. He just recounted the whole process of things in a very objective and calm manner. As he spoke, Gastens' brow remained tightly knit, and his expression changed several times, but finally fell silent.

“…… So, in the end, I had the bodies disposed of and took the people I had bought to storm the factory. I originally thought that Elena was dead, and I didn't want her things, so naturally others would take them away, so it was better to take them myself, and sell them at a price, but how could we have thought that you were actually a great magister. This mistake in judgment has completely forced our Mage Tower to a dead end......"

Martinez's words were finally finished, and the room fell into a deathly silence. Blood slowly fell from Martinez's bent elbow with a muffled sound. Zink held back for a while, but finally didn't hold back his emotions and scolded.

"Fuck Luna, you bitch! When she was desperate, we took her in! But Daisy gave her a way to live! How could she be so gracious and vengeful! How can you be incorruptible and shameless! Boss, we're going to kill her! Ling Chi her! ”

At Zink's anger, Gastens waved his hand and did not speak. He knew that Luna didn't have a revolutionary consciousness, and that he had just wanted to find a less noticeable way to keep the robe. However, who would have thought that one of his own errors in judgment would eventually lead to such a bitter fruit?

Gastens knows it's not the time to relax, though. He looked at Martinez, who had a disgruntled face in front of him, and asked.

"Since you are so cooperative, there must be something you want, say it, I will seriously consider it."

Hearing Gastens words, Martinez showed a slightly surprised expression, he took a closer look at Gastens with some admiration in his eyes.

"You are the one who can unleash forbidden spells. I have a request, a small, trivial request."

Although the words in his mouth were insignificant, Martinez was able to endure Zink's punishment just to see Gastens, and how much he valued this small request, both Zink and Gastens knew. They looked at Martinez and waited for him to reply.

"I killed Daisy, I deserve to die, I admit it. You're going to kill me, and I have nothing to say. However, everyone wants to live, even if they live like a dog, and I am no exception. I am the spokesperson of the capital department of the Mage Tower, I have been running for the Mage Tower for many years, what are the assets of the Mage Tower, where are they, and how can I get them, although I dare not say that I know everything, but I definitely know a lot. Including pyroxene veins in Enspan and refined iron ore in Siloam, I know all about them. If, I mean, if, sir, you think that my dog is still a little useful, and can do Elena a little favor, bring something good, just go around my dog's life, give me ten years, I don't want much, let me live ten more years, let me see how far your Elena can go, my lord, I will be satisfied. ”

Martinez spoke with sincerity and in a sincere tone. The quid pro quo he proposed also helped Elena a somewhat. Gastens is a person who has been a great mage, so he naturally knows how much wealth a mage tower has. With that wealth, Elena would have a great deal of financial freedom. However, he clearly did not intend to let Martinez go so easily. After just a moment's silence, he asked a question.

"What if I still want to kill you?"

Martinez, who seemed to have prepared for Gastens' words, shrugged his shoulders and gasped at the wound. However, this did not prevent him from giving his answer in an extremely resentful tone.

"If you're going to kill me, you're going to kill Luna too, because that woman can't make a price for me. I only hope that before I die, you will give Luna to me, and give it to me alive! ”
