Chapter 912: Chapter 235: Zhao Ya: Give Me Back My Chen 94
“When you issued these orders, have you ever regretted it? Did you ever feel a tinge of compassion?”
Chu Tian angrily shouted at Chen Jie, “For the great cause, a little sacrifice is worth it.”
“A little? By ‘a little’, do you mean the lives of 800,000 citizens of Huangzhou Prefecture?”
“If it can overthrow Baomian, why not!”
Chu Tian roared at Chen Jie, and it was clear that he knew just how cold-blooded his orders were.
And unluckily for him, there was still a shred of humanity left in him, making him feel ashamed of his actions.
Chen Jie looked at Chu Tian and said, “You seem angry. What are you angry about, and why? Is it because I’ve torn away your façade of hypocrisy and now you’re humiliated and outraged?”
“None of your business!”
Chu Tian shouted, and Chen Jie said, “Alright, I won’t interfere. I don’t want to. I’ve already answered your questions. Now, who will answer mine?”
“Where did you hide Wulu Tai?”
Chen Jie looked at Chu Tian, and Chu Tian said, “Killed!”
“Where’s the body?” Newest update provıded by NoveI~Fire.net
“Thrown into the dry well at the East City Wang Family Tofu Workshop.”
Jie Wenyan said, “Very well, thank you for your honesty.”
Chen Jie knew they would answer this question because it wasn’t crucial; they had been caught, and Wulu Tai’s life or death wasn’t important since no one needed to take the blame anymore.
So they answered frankly.
Chen Jie thought for a moment and said, “Thank you for your honesty. Now, the second question.”
“The 500,000 stones of grain in the Big Warehouse of Huangzhou Prefecture, where did you transport them to?”
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged glances and said, “No comment.”
Chen Jie knew they wouldn’t confess so easily, looking at the two he said, “Gentlemen, we had an understanding. I’ve answered all your questions, yet you are being evasive on this one, which isn’t honorable.”
Hearing this, Chu Tian said, “It’s about the Holy Sect, no comment.”
Chen Jie responded, “Gentlemen, if you break your word, I won’t abide by the Jianghu code!”
Chu Tian, seeing this, said, “What do you intend to do?”
Chen Jie smiled, “If you’re willing to speak, we make a gentleman’s agreement. If not, I’ll have my brother educate you on the essence of torture.”
Hearing this, Zhou Junchen stepped forward and said, “Gang Leader, rest assured, within two hours, I’ll have them talking.”
Chen Jie said, “Please, go ahead.”
Zhou Junchen then looked at the two and said, “Gentlemen, since my gang leader’s reasoning didn’t work, let me enlighten you on the wonders of criminal law.”
Zhou Junchen said as he took out a series of torture tools from his pocket.
“Let me tell you, I’ve classified punishments into levels, this saltwater whip is trivial. Look at this.”
Zhou Junchen picked up a weight and said, “This is called Gut-Dropping. The two of you will be suspended from a high place, the back part opened, weight attached, and the dropping weight will pull on the intestines. You won’t die immediately and can clearly feel the sensation of your belly being hollowed out, should be quite marvelous.”
Hearing this, even Chu Tian and Zhong Guang, who were men of iron will, broke into a cold sweat, thinking, damn, this is too perverse.
“This is called Bone Stripping, this is called Sitting in a Jar…”
Zhou Junchen, like a diligent salesperson, explained all his perverse torture tools and methods.
It can only be said that the more imaginative humans are, the more cruel they become to their kind.
Zhou Junchen explained all the methods he could think of, finally smiling at the two and saying, “Which punishment shall we start with? How about Sitting in a Jar?”
“The snakes this time of year are fat, perfect for Sitting in a Jar. Should be quite thrilling.”
Hearing this, Chu Tian and Zhong Guang both turned pale and said, “Chen Jiusi, you actually dare to treat us this way, worse than a beast!”
Chen Jie looked perplexed and said, “Gentlemen, why say such things?”
“We uphold credibility. You tell me where this batch of grain is, I’ll leave and not involve you. Isn’t that enough?”
Chu Tian and Zhong Guang gritted their teeth and said, “Chen Jiusi, I won’t tell you. If you let this pervert handle us, I’ll kill you!”
Hearing this, Chen Jie laughed, “It was you who broke the trust first, not me, so…”
Chen Jie continued, “Gentlemen, why not just confess?”
Hearing this, the two turned pale, yet at that moment, a voice rang out: “Ha ha, yes, he’s right, how can the Zoroastrian Sect not honor its word!”
“If you say you’ll tell him, then tell him, no point in letting people look down on us!”
Everyone present was stunned and all looked towards the source of the voice, only to suddenly realize a person dressed in a prison guard uniform had walked in.
Holding a bunch of keys, she twirled the key ring with her hand.
Everyone was shocked; this was the Darugachi Mansion’s dungeon, how could someone possibly sneak in!
Everyone looked at the intruder and found that the person wasn’t very tall, wore a prison guard cap, and her features were unclear, but from the voice, she seemed to be a woman, or a girl.
Indeed, while everyone was surprised, the person quickly approached.
Reaching the prison door, she tried to unlock it with the keys in her hand.
After two failed attempts, she angrily shouted, “This is so troublesome.”
Then she grabbed the heavy prison door with both hands, exerted force, and with a crunching sound, the door weighing hundreds of pounds was lifted and tossed aside.
