When Luke and Karina arrive in the dungeon, Snow and Pisco have already set up an interrogation room. The seven suspects were tied to chairs with their heads covered, and Pisco snapped with a leather whip in his hand.

Snow came with a gun and was about to interrogate the first person, and immediately stood up and saluted when he saw Luke come in.

"Lord Governor!"

Pisco turned around and saw Luke also standing up straight in a standard military stance: "Lord Governor!" ”

Karina brought a chair, and Luke sat down and asked Snow, "What are you doing?" ”

"Interrogation suspect......" Xue Lai replied: "Your Excellency, you are now in a noble position, let me and Pisco do this kind of interrogation, and I promise to make them confess within an hour." ”

Luke sighed in his heart, if it weren't for Karina's timely report, it is estimated that several suspects would have died.

"This eucalyptus is a matter of Princess Daile's safety, and no one can interrogate her privately without my permission in the future. You and Pisco are on your side...... Karina, give me the information from headquarters. ”

Xuelai and Pisco stood aside obediently, and Karina pulled out several papers from the briefcase she was carrying. When it was handed over to Luke, he said: "The Imperial Intelligence Agency headquarters has done a lot of preliminary work on this eucalyptus, and it is very likely that these seven people are related to the attack on Princess Dale. Here are the information of the seven of them, as well as the files compiled by the headquarters. ”

Luke took the file and looked at it carefully.

After Princess Daile was attacked, the Imperial Intelligence Bureau kept arresting people in the imperial capital. In addition to casting a wide net, the purpose was to scare the attackers and make them expose themselves under pressure.

With Agatha's supervision, the Imperial Secret Agents were very attentive to this eucalyptus, and all the people who were captured were cross-screened, and after careful screening over and over again, these seven people who might have a major relationship with this eucalyptus were screened out.

It's just that they can't find it again, no matter coercion, inducement, or torture, they all deny that it has anything to do with the attack on Princess Daile.

Time passed slowly, and no one dared to make a sound in the interrogation room.

The dossier describes these people in great detail, including what punishment was used, when it was used, and when it ended. How many lashes were drawn, and how many minutes of waterboarding were spent. How many times have you fainted, what injuries have you suffered, how many mental attacks have you suffered......

Just looking at it, Luke couldn't help but feel that the headquarters of the CIA was professional. If nothing can be asked in the midst of such brutal torture, these people are either innocent or professionally trained.

After about an hour, Luke went through all the files.

To sum up, they were either near the site of the attack on the night Princess Dale was attacked; Either appeared near the path of the attacker's retreat; Either try to leave the imperial capital when the whole city is under martial law.

Of course, there are other suspicious points, let the CIA headquarters screen them out.

"Take off their hoods."

Luke gave the order, and Pisco stepped forward to remove all of the suspect's hood.

The headquarters used a lot of torture on them, but they did not slap them in the face. Therefore, even if there are some bruises and bruises, it is still easy to identify their appearance.

While observing the seven suspects, Luke tried his best to recall the NPCs he had seen in the game, and also called up the information in his phone to see if he could reduce the difficulty of eucalyptus a little.

Outcome...... Sure enough, there was an unexpected surprise.

Philemon Sam is a salesman for a cosmetics company who frequents the Imperial City because he sells high-end cosmetics. At the time of the attack on Princess Dale, Sam was captured by Imperial agents in the grass two blocks away.

His explanation was that he had just explained the use of new cosmetics to a lady, so he was delayed and stranded in the Imperial City. And because he didn't know what was happening, he hid in the grass in fear.

The lady and the servant confirmed Sam's words.

But the Imperial Agent did not dispel suspicions about Sam.

The attack on Princess Dale was a very deliberate operation, and in addition to the assassin who carried out the assassination, there must have been people around to guard the assassin. When the Assassins fled, someone must have put the finishing touches on it.

Therefore, the Imperial agent thinks that Sam may have something to do with this eucalyptus, but there is no evidence, and nothing comes out of his mouth.

And Luke knows Sam.

He's a small character, and the little ones don't know who they're working for, just cannon fodder who does what they are told. Even if he is asked to confess, there is no way to find the mastermind of the attack. His upline, knowing that he was caught, should have run away a long time ago, or been dealt with.

In the story quest of a prince in Anno Games, the player will have several encounters with Philemon Sam. He is a high-end cosmetics salesman, knows the ladies of the Imperial City very well, and can provide useful information in some tasks.

It's just that this can't be used as evidence to prove that the prince is the mastermind of the attack on Princess Dale, can he take out his mobile phone and show it to Augustine?

And...... It doesn't seem to prove that the prince has anything to do with eucalyptus, and there is a possibility that Sam happened to be passing there.

As for the others...... Their information was not found on the phone, but it cannot be said that they have nothing to do with eucalyptus.

It's tricky!

Luke said to everyone in the interrogation room, "I am Meteor, Your Majesty's newly appointed Acting Governor of Angry Waves City, and the Director of the Sixth Division of the Imperial Intelligence Agency. I am now fully responsible for the attack on Princess Dale, and I will give you a chance to tell you what I want to know, which can reduce the crime......"

"Your Excellency the Doge." One of the suspects immediately cried: "I am innocent! I had a factory outside the city, and I was in a hurry to get out of town when a worker came back that night to tell me that the factory's warehouse was on fire.

My workers can attest to what I say. Please let me go, my family is still waiting for me. ”

"Your Excellency, you are innocent......"

……

The interrogation room was filled with pleas for mercy, and even Philemon Sam burst into tears, as if he had really been wronged.

Seeing that it didn't work, Luke said, "Okay, since no one says anything, let's start the interrogation!" ”

Seeing that these people were still crying unrelentingly, Pisco shook the whip crisply and yelled, "Shut up! Didn't you hear the words of my governor! Whoever is making a noise, I'll twist his head off! ”

Pisco's image was indeed better than Luke's, and the interrogation room suddenly fell silent.

Luke gave Pisco an appreciative look and then said to the suspects, "Now I'll ask the question, and whoever will answer it will answer again." Snow comes ......"

Xuelai replied respectfully, "What does the governor command?" ”

"Who spoke without my permission...... Killed directly! ”

Xue Lai replied in a loud voice, "Yes, Governor! ”

"Philemon Sam," Luke asked, looking at the second young man on his left, "Tell me in detail what you did that night, who you met, and what you said." ”

Being named first made Sam look fleeting in surprise, but he quickly adjusted his mindset and repeated what he had already said to the Imperial Spy countless times.

When it was over, Luke didn't say anything, but asked the next person the same question.

After all seven people asked.

"Philemon Sam" Luke called Sam's name again: "Where do you live, how many people are in the family, what is your name, and what is your relationship?" ”

Sam continued to answer. He is confident in his disguised identity, an orphan from a remote area who is admitted to a school in the imperial capital with his own efforts. Since graduation, I have been doing cosmetics sales, and my performance is not top-notch, but I also have a good income. I just got married last year, and my wife's family background is very ordinary.

Everything can be verified, and he is a very ordinary citizen of St. Lun City.

After Sam finished speaking, Luke continued to ask the next person.

Wait for all seven people to ask again.

"Philemon Sam" Luke called Sam again, "You were carrying some cosmetics with you when you were captured. Tell me about the type, name, and function of the cosmetics. ”

This time Sam was a little unsettled.

It wasn't that he was nervous because of Meteorite's question, but he didn't know why Meteorite had started asking questions from him three times in a row. If he asked in order, it would be nothing, but the next six people he asked questions out of order.

Only I was the first three times in a row.

Is this a coincidence?

Luke's question was not difficult for Sam, and after he answered it easily, he turned his attention to the others.

Again, these are very simple questions, but there is no pattern in the order of the roll call.

After a round of questions......

"Philemon Sam" Luke stared at Sam and asked, "You often go in and out of the Imperial City, you should have seen a lot of distinguished people, do you know any members of the royal family?" ”

"I, I don't know the royals." Sam's voice trembled.

It is true that he does not know the royals, he is only sure that his identity has been revealed. If the question is asked by random roll call, you will be ranked first four times in a row among seven people, and the chances of a coincidence are slim.

But it can't be!

For so many days at the headquarters of the Secret Intelligence Agency, and so many punishments were used, I didn't show my handle. He's a guy from Angry Waves City, and he's just met, so how can he see through my identity.

Luke got an answer from Sam and asked the next person without pause.

Six people asked questions in random order, and after one round......

"Philemon Sam. Did you know that Princess Delle went to Miss Sunny Sky's museum that night? ”

Sam, who was already determined to die, replied very firmly this time: "I don't know." ”

The question continues.

Luke asked a total of ten rounds of questions, each of which was the first to name Philippon Sam. In the end, even the other six suspects who were questioned noticed something strange and looked at Sam with different eyes.

And although Sam is still denying and disguising, his expression is no longer disguised. When he knew that it was Princess Dale who attacked that night, he knew that he was an outcast, and he had no chance to make meritorious contributions.

At the end, Luke handed Karina all the papers in his hand and stood up to move his sedentary and stiff waist.

said: "My questions are all done, and you are indeed innocent. On behalf of the Imperial Intelligence Agency, I would like to express my deep apologies for what has happened to you these days, and I am prepared to pay you a sum of money at my own expense, hoping to make up for some of your losses and the damage caused to you.

Let's go, your family is waiting for you to return safely.

Pisco, untie them. ”

"Yes, Governor!"

Although Pisco didn't understand why his own governor let everyone go so casually, he still carried out the order to release the suspect.

The seven suspects were dumbfounded...... Answering such a few simple questions is all right?

No beatings, no mental torture.

It's hard to accept this treatment!

But the chains that bind the hands and feet are really opened, and the doors that are closed are also opened, and it is really possible to get out?

Karina said, "Thank you, Lord Doge, for your grace. Come with me, and after completing the formalities, you can leave. ”

The suspects hurriedly followed Karina out of the interrogation room.

After the silence had calmed down, Xuelai asked Luke, "Governor, is there something wrong with that Philemon Sam?" ”

Pisco asked, "Big sister, what's wrong with Philemon Sam?" ”

"Stupid...... The Governor asked ten rounds of questions, and Philemon Sam was the first to answer, and it must have been the adults who saw that he had a problem. ”

Luke asks Xuelai, "You see that?" Very smart! You can see it when I ask the first few questions. ”

"The sixth, seventh, or eighth round......" Xuelai couldn't remember clearly: "Anyway, in the end, that kid's face was white." Governor, why did you let Philemon Sam go, if you knew he had a problem? ”

"You see it, and it seems that everyone else sees it too. Philemon Sam is just a small shrimp, and if you want to catch a big fish, you have to let the small shrimp go out to swim.

You two are going to Silver Avenue in the Imperial City, there is a restaurant where pizza is made very delicious, buy me some. ”

"Yes, Detective!"

Xuelai and Pisco left the interrogation room, and when they went out, Pisco couldn't help but ask, "Big sister, what's wrong with that kid?" ”

……

Philemon Sam walked out of the Sixth Secret Service of the Imperial Intelligence Agency with the personal belongings he had retrieved, and there was no shortage of cosmetics in his satchel, but all of them were examined.

The harsh sunlight shone down, making Sam, who had been imprisoned in the dark for a long time, squint his eyes. The pain that was everywhere in his body told him that he wasn't dreaming......

I came out on my own, and I came out of the Imperial Secret Intelligence Bureau alive.

But where to go next?

Sam couldn't figure out the purpose of the meteor letting him go, since he saw through his identity and hinted at himself during the interrogation that he knew about it, why did he finally let him go.

Is it trying to stalk me and catch the people behind me?

But since I know that you have seen through my identity, how can you take a spy who is tracking me to arrest my upline? And among the six suspects, I don't know if there are any accomplices. If there is, he must know that I have been exposed.

All those I have contacted will disappear, and the Assassins will soon arrive.

Where can I go?

"Hey, don't stay at the door!" The Imperial agent standing guard outside shouted to Sam, "Let you go home quickly, and if you don't leave, I'll arrest you!" ”

Go home?

Hehe......
