Xiao Lingyue said: "Don't worry, I will definitely live longer than you."
The chain of the cell door opened with a clang, and the warden said solemnly: "Shen Wan, come out with me!"
Xiao Lingyue walked over.
The warden looked at her deeply, said nothing, and asked the jailer to take her with him and walk out.
After walking out of the Tianzihao cell, there was a large interrogation room next to it.
There was a brazier in the corner, the temperature was very high, and the entire wall was covered with various torture instruments, including shackles, pipa thorns, crochet hooks, soldering irons... Some of them were stained with blood, giving off an eerie chill.
"Come and sit down!" the jailer pointed at an interrogation chair and shouted at Xiao Lingyue.
Xiao Lingyue said calmly: "I haven't been convicted yet. According to the rules, you are not qualified to torture me, right?"
The jailer's eyes widened and he was about to curse.
The warden said, "It's just a routine interrogation. Please cooperate with the county magistrate." He motioned for a chair, and his attitude was obviously not to be refused.
The interrogation chair is actually an iron chair fixed to the ground.
There are special shackles on the armrests and chair legs on both sides.
As long as a person sits on it and locks his hands and feet, the whole person will be unable to move. It is a tool specially used for torture.
Xiao Lingyue narrowed her eyes slightly: "Who is the interrogator today? This can always be revealed, right?"
The warden said: "Your Majesty has handed over the case to His Highness King Yi. Since the county master has a different identity, it is natural that His Highness King Yi will bring the case to trial in person."
Zhan Beihan comes to interrogate?
Xiao Lingyue raised her eyebrows: "Okay."
She calmly walked to the interrogation chair, sat down, and watched as the yamen guards locked the shackles, making it difficult for her hands and feet to move.
"The County Lord will wait here for a moment, His Highness will be here soon." The warden said with a fake smile, and then led the Yamen servant out.
Xiao Lingyue was the only one left in the interrogation room.
She waited for a long time, but there was no movement at all outside.
Xiao Lingyue had just finished eating and was feeling a little sleepy. She sat quietly and couldn't move. She simply leaned back in the chair, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
I don't know how much time passed, but Xiao Lingyue suddenly heard footsteps while half asleep and half awake.
She didn't bother to open her eyes and just stayed there without moving.
The door of the interrogation room was pushed open, footsteps approached slowly, and a shadow enveloped her eyelids, blocking out the light of the brazier.
"You are very leisurely. You can sleep even sitting here?" The man's slightly mocking voice sounded.
Xiao Lingyue opened her eyes and said angrily: "You deliberately left me alone, what else can I do except sleep?"
She raised her head.
Zhan Beihan stood tall and tall in front of her, with his back to the light of the brazier, half of his face in shadow, and his narrow eyes glowing with light.
Xiao Lingyue glanced at him and her eyes fell on the booklet he was holding: "Any clues?"
"I asked this question. Those who didn't know would have thought you were interrogating me."
Zhan Beihan mocked and shook the folder in his hand: "This is the folder about the case that is going to be sent to the palace. Do you want to read it?"
Xiao Lingyue said suspiciously: "Will you show it to me?"
"Why not?"
Zhan Beihan threw the folder to her and said meaningfully: "Take a good look at it, in case you don't know how to explain it."
"..." Xiao Lingyue had a bad feeling.
Her hands were shackled to the armrests of the iron chair, and her movements were very restricted. Fortunately, she didn't need to turn the pages of the folding book, she could just open it directly.
Xiao Lingyue lowered her head and looked at what was written in the folder, and the expression on her face froze instantly. This chapter has been completed!
