Interrogation Room 3.

The chief judge here can be said to have encountered the most difficult opponent since taking office.

I saw Lugo lying on his chair like a salted fish, shaking his legs and yawning boredly.

If it weren't for the shackles on his hands and feet, the presiding judge would have no doubt that Lugo would have put on a more lazy appearance, as if he didn't realize that he was now a prisoner awaiting trial, and his life was hanging by a thread.

Judge: "You don't seem to have figured out your situation. ”

Lugo: "Oh? Where did I not figure it out? ”

Presiding Judge: "Now it's my interrogation, and you don't have the right to ask questions." ”

Lugo: "Then you continue to ask, didn't I answer all the questions you asked just now?" ”

Judge: "I want a real answer." ”

Lugo: "What I gave you is the true answer. ”

Presiding Judge: "You lied. ”

Lugo: "I lied? ”

Presiding Judge: "Let me ask you again, why did you kill the local smuggler Varta after the explosion of the Evening City banquet last year?" ”

Lugo: "I said, at that time, the Administrator was planning to rectify the atmosphere of Twilight City, and Varta was a local snake, and his subordinates often bullied men and women, and did all kinds of evil, so the executive government decided to kill him first. ”

Presiding Judge: "The rectification of the atmosphere can be carried out in a formal way - the inspection of black accounts, the seizure of black property, the arrest and criminal trial of relevant members, the detention of those who should be imprisoned, the execution of those who should be executed... Is it necessary to entrust you, a mercenary, with murder? ”

Lugo: "When did I say that he sent me to kill?" ”

Presiding Judge: "What do you mean?" ”

Lugo: "As I said before, the Administrator wants to put things in order, so he told me to deal with the forces of Varta - just told me to 'deal with it', and nothing else. And I think that directly cutting people is the easiest way to deal with it, so I will click Varta ~ No way, layman, without such a good brain as you, the methods of our mercenaries have always been simple and rude. ”

Presiding judge: "Are you taking responsibility for yourself?" I must remind you that you cooperate with our investigation and have a good chance of obtaining a commutation or pardon. If you resist interrogation, make up false things, and try to take responsibility for Administrator Chino, not only is it not loyalty, but it will even harm him, but you will also harm yourself. ”

Lugo: "I said, what you ask, what I answer, if you don't believe me, there's no way." ”

The chief judge was silent for a long time, obviously there was no way to take this kind of mercenary old fritter for a while, and he said in a deep voice: "Let's change the topic." What do you know about the truth about the Twilight Banquet bombing? Are the prisoners really those extraterrestrial visitors? ”

Lugo: "Didn't an investigation team come to this before?" Lord Batty Dogulander, the "Inquisitor" of the capital of Fengyun Pass, has also come to a conclusion, so you can just ask him. ”

Presiding Judge: "I'm asking you right now. ”

Lugo: "I see the same thing as Barty. ”

Presiding Judge: "Lie." ”

Lugo: "You call me lying? ”

Presiding Judge: "I said you lied. ”

Lugo: "I said that I have the same opinion as Lord Barty, and that if you say that I am lying, it means that you do not agree with Lord Barty's ruling, that is, you imply that he was shielding the Administrator at the time, and you are also implying that the entire investigation team is suspected of harboring.

"In that case, you should arrest the following people at once - Provincial Inquisitor Barty Dogulland, Provincial Archon Resahar Delin Regnom, and Provincial Alchemy Guild President Jashan Hitch."

"There's also a deceased provincial "military assistant" Erin Troy... Of course, there is no need to arrest the dead, and if you think something is strange, why don't you arrest the "governor" of her clan, Lord Edward Troy? ”

The presiding judge coldly scolded: "Stop your sophistry! We have a great deal of evidence to prove that the Chino administrator was implicated in the banquet bombing, and that he was identified as a visitor. No matter how much you deny it, we can convict him, it's just a matter of time. ”

Lugo: "You say he's a visitor?" ”

Presiding Judge: "Yes." ”

Lugo: "I said I was also a visitor. ”

Rao is the chief judge with extremely hard psychological quality, and at this time, he was inevitably shocked into a cold sweat, and asked in a loud voice: "What's the matter?" Make it clear! ”

Lugo shook his legs, scratched his OO, and lazily asked, "Do you believe me?" ”

Seeing Lugo's dog appearance, the chief judge quickly realized that this guy was pulling skin again, and he said coldly: "I don't believe it." ”

Lugo laughed angrily, spat to the side, and scolded: "Grandma's! I said he wasn't a visitor, you said he was a visitor! I said I was a visitor, you said I wasn't a visitor! So what's going on??? You're going to do the opposite with me, aren't you??? That's okay, he's a visitor from outside the world, okay? You write it upside down! ”

The inquisitors are all people with high psychological qualities, but when they encounter an old fritter like Lugo, the presiding judge can't help but breathe heavily, and his expression is gloomy and angry, and he wants to beat people like this for the first time in his life.

Just then, the door opened, and a soldier walked in, whispering something in the presiding judge's ear.

Presiding Judge: "Be louder, you can't hear it!" ”

The soldier raised his voice a little and whispered in his ear again.

Presiding Judge: "I can't hear you!" ”

The soldier straightened his back, and his voice was like a bell: "Baixa Hujer, the "military commander" of Twilight, and Paladin Jones, the "caravan steward" of the government residence of Twilight, have all confessed!" The mastermind of last year's Grace Day banquet bombing was identified as the administrator Chino van Helsing, whose real identity was a visitor from the sky. All evidence has been recorded by the judge and turned in. ”

The candle flame flickered, and the orange-red light fell on Lugo's expressionless face, fluttering.

The presiding judge lit the rest of the candles, completely illuminating the gloomy interrogation room and heralding the end of the interrogation, and he looked at Lugo's expression as if he were looking at a clown: "The Big Three in Shirin, huh?" Look at you, Lugo, what do you get in exchange for your righteousness? You desperately take responsibility for your superiors, thinking that the two good brothers will do the same, but in fact, some people confess, and your insistence is meaningless from the beginning. ”

Lugo was silent, and the only sound in the room was the flickering of candles.

The chief judge sorted out his interrogation papers and turned to leave.

Before closing the door to the interrogation room, the presiding judge glanced back at Lugo one last time and said casually, "If you know now that you regret it, I can still give you a chance, and if you have the right attitude, you may be saved from death and only live - I mean maybe." ”

Lugo sat in a chair like a statue, the light of the candle swaying on its face, its shadows twisting and spreading, flickering and flickering like a living thing.

"No comment." Lugo said.

The presiding judge ignored him, as if facing the garbage that was about to rot, and closed the door directly, only a sneer came through the crack in the door: "Pathetic." ”
