☆, Chapter 90 Torture to extract confessions

Watching your body slowly decay is devastating.

The skin and flesh melt away, and the bones are revealed bit by bit…

This process is like putting death in slow motion. Every second and every detail is clearly recorded and magnified into torture and suffering.

But Qin Zhu was fine.

He is far from broken, just regretful.

Maybe it’s because the process is so magical that it feels unreal.

Maybe it’s because he is really overconfident.

He sat in the same place in the ruins from beginning to end, taking off his coat on one side, and his white silk shirt was stained with a large amount of blood.

He bent one leg and looked at his hand bones, waiting patiently.

When there was no more blood on his body, he took off the gauze 922 had put on him.

He was not interested in admiring the broken skin and flesh, so he did not take off his shirt and directly wrapped the gauze outside his shirt.

When 021 entered the monitoring room, he saw this scene.

She frowned and asked, “Why are you wrapped like this? Don’t tell me that Invigilator No. 001 doesn’t know how to treat wounds. Are you kidding me?”

922 said: “How could it not be?”

“Then what is he doing?”

“Block the blood.”

021 was stunned: “Huh?”

“Blocking blood is not stopping bleeding.” 154 said.

Sure enough, on the surveillance screen, Qin Jiu had another layer of gauze wrapped around his shirt, and his fingers…not even the bones of his hand.

The blood was stained on a new layer of gauze, but the penetration was no longer so strong. In other words, the blood was no longer so alive.

He rested his elbows for a while, looking into the distance without knowing what he was thinking.

After the blood was dry, he put on his dress coat again, took out his gloves from his pocket and put them on again.

When the confinement time limit was approaching, he stood up. His dress was slender and straight. Except for the sluggishness of the first few movements, there was almost no problem.It’s as if his injury still only stays on the palm of his hand.

Only people with extremely strong willpower can achieve this…

But why is it necessary?

Are you really just being tough and not wanting to show any weakness?

021 looked at the screen and muttered in his heart.

On the screen, Qin Zhu held his hands together and pushed his gloves inward, then raised his head and scanned around.

He seems to be looking for something.

Soon, he stopped looking and actually met 021 across the screen.

“… He’s not looking at us, is he? Is it a coincidence?” 021 pointed at the screen and asked.

154 said “Huh”: “That should be it.”

“Real or fake? Can he still feel where the surveillance is?” 021 said, “How is that possible?”

922 nodded and said: “Really, he used to be at the invigilation office and could always point out where the system’s focus was…”

154 thought for a while and said: “He particularly, particularly hates being restrained, more than the average person, so he has always been a bit keen in this aspect…”

While speaking, Qin Zhuzhen made a gesture to the screen to signal the invigilator to come, and then said “shhh” against his lips.

021: “…”

She thought for a while and quietly went to the solitary room.

Youhuo was still sleeping, and she remembered Qin Zhu’s gesture. She walked around him silently and walked to the confinement room and opened the door.

Qin Jiu stood by the door and said in a low voice: “I came in a few minutes before the others. To be fair, can I go out first?”

021 frowned: “You——”

Qin Jiu touched his lips again.

021 glanced at Youhuo not far away and whispered, “What are you doing?”

Qin Jiu raised his eyebrows and said nothing, and just asked her: “Do you agree?”

021 stared at he, stunned for a moment and suddenly understood.

he wants to take a step forward, wants to go back and do something early, maybe a little crazy and a little risky, so he wants to avoid other he people…

No, most people simply can’t keep up with he’s rhythm, and they can’t be with him.

There is only one person he wants to avoid.

021 looked at Qin Zhu.

This man obviously looked sick and pale, but he still had a strong and vigorous spirit.

She was suddenly confused.

Because of those past events and rumors, she really didn’t like the first-ranked proctor in the past, but after these two encounters, Qin Jiu always surprised her…

She suddenly began to suspect that her perception was wrong.

Two minutes later, for the first time in his life, invigilator 021 obeyed Qin Jiu’s wishes and released he from the invigilation office at the earliest possible time.

***

In the castle, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

There were the dead candidates, the Duke himself, and the dark shadows on the wall.

After several times, Zhao Jiatong finally discovered that those black shadows did not appear randomly.The Duke only shows his teeth and claws when he is at his weakest.

She killed the Duke five times, and those sticky black shadows also appeared five times, like undead souls that would never rest in peace.

It wasn’t until the first batch of candidates came back with the news that “You Confused Qin was cursed” that Zhao Jiatong finally returned to his senses.

She was stopped in the corner by others, breathing heavily and with red eyes, watching the Duke come back from the dead again, dragging his long cloak and walking downstairs.

“It can’t be killed, it can’t be burned, it can be opened and closed…” Zhao Jiatong said, “How can we kill him?”

Most importantly, kill him without being cursed.

She no longer dared to think about what would happen to You Huo and Qin Ju now, and she felt extremely uncomfortable just thinking about it.She didn’t want to see those two living people turn into undead souls who couldn’t see the light, trapped in the dark and dank old church forever.

“Even if I think of a way, I don’t dare to try it now.” Someone said pointedly.

“Yes, there’s no way to try. Those two will get hurt faster if you try.”

“More than that, it stands to reason that we have drunk and eaten, which is equivalent to contributing our bodies. This curse will definitely spread gradually.”

“Yes!” Someone asked in confusion: “We have all eaten, why is everything okay?”

“How much did you eat, and how much did others eat? I think the Duke may have been resurrected too many times in one night, and the curse was transferred quickly, so I picked two first. Firstly, they eat a lot, secondly, they are the most powerful, and thirdly, they are the first to kill the Duke.”

“Speaking of this… I see that they didn’t deliberately eat less for dinner. Isn’t it just to attract firepower?”

Everyone looked heavy and had mixed feelings.

“I don’t know if I remember correctly. How long is the deadline for this exam? Did the question say anything about it? Why do I have no memory?” someone suddenly asked.

Zhao Jiatong whispered: “No, the question didn’t give an exact time, I can be sure.”

Everyone was silent for a long time and asked: “Doesn’t that mean we can’t even stay up? How should we get out?”

“Since…” someone spoke in silence, “since we can’t kill the Duke, we can only kill the patient.”

There are two kinds of liberation –

Kill the Duke and all witchcraft goes back to the beginning.

Kill all the patients and die a happy death.

The second way he has always tried to avoid, but now it seems that it is unavoidable.

Several candidates gritted their teeth and wanted to go to town on the spot.

As a result, after running a few steps, I heard Zhao Jiatong say: “Are all patients…including those who have just been cursed?”

The candidates stopped instantly.

“…How did the previous candidates pass?”

“Maybe someone is ruthless, maybe no one passes in several consecutive games. Those NPCs are still not the original NPCs, and what they said are lines or true, who knows…”

“I can’t do it anyway.”

At least not yet.

Everyone was completely trapped by this problem, struggling and entangled, and could not find a way to have both.

The Duke would always rest for a while after killing someone and never came upstairs again.

I don’t know how long it took, but the gate of the castle was pushed open, and Qin Jiu came back.

Zhao Jiatong rushed down almost immediately. Only when he reached the first floor did he realize that Yang Shu was running faster than she.

This lady who had no nice words had a soft heart. When she heard about the curse, she kept holding the medicine bag in her hand. When she saw Qin Jiu, she took out the needle on the spot.

Unexpectedly, Mr. 001 avoided the needle, smiled and said, “Just save it, I don’t need it.”

Yang Shu’s eyes stood up: “Fart, you are a doctor and I am a doctor? I said you can use it if you need it. If you don’t need it, you don’t need it. I still have it here, and the other one will still need it when he comes back.”

Ms. Yang has always been tough, and I’m afraid she has a lot to talk to 021.

Qin Zhu estimated that he might not be able to leave if she didn’t get her wish, so he reluctantly agreed.

Yang Shu said: “Expose your arms!”

Qin Jiu did not do as he was told: “Forget it about the arm, I’m afraid I’ll stick the needle out of you. If you must get the injection, give it here, at least there will be some good skin left.”

He said, pulling the collar down a little, like a stingy iron rooster.

Yang Shu was stunned for a moment while holding the syringe, and suddenly understood what he meant.

It’s strange that such a stubborn girl’s eyes are a little red.

She blinked, suddenly withdrew the syringe, pushed Zhao Jiatong forward, turned around and hurried away: “I’d better go check on Zhou Qi, in case he wakes up.”

Zhao Jiatong is not much better than she.

She never expected that she would have a day when she was worried about 001, and she suddenly realized that the No. 1 invigilator was really very strong, so strong that she could hardly stand it anymore.

“You…”

“It’s okay, still within the tolerance range.” Qin Jiu interrupted: “But you may have to rest for a while first, and let’s talk about other things after everyone comes back.”

Zhao Jiatong originally wanted to say a few words, but when he heard that he wanted to rest, he immediately said: “Then you go and get some sleep. I won’t hold you back. We’ll talk about it when everyone is here.”

Qin Jiu said hello and hurried upstairs.

After walking a few steps, he turned around and said to her: “I don’t like people knocking on the door when I sleep, so…”

“When Gao Qi comes back, I will ask him to stay in our room first.” Zhao Jiatong said.

“Thanks.”

Five minutes later, there was a soft sound from the grass at the foot of the castle.

Qin Zhu stood up, glanced at the dotted balcony behind him, and walked in a certain direction.

There is a carriage road there. Follow the road around the foot of Calton Mountain, and you can see the town sitting in the night.

***

When Youhuo was woken up by 021, the second batch of solitary candidates had disappeared.

He looked at the open narrow door of the confinement room and asked 021: “Did you increase the dose for me again?”

021 pointed at 922 and said: “Ask him, I don’t care.”

She left these words and left, her face calm, but it looked like she was running away.She went upstairs and got into the monitoring room.

922 patted his shoulder and said: “You also have a big piece of damage here. The blood was dripping on the ground just now, so we…just gave you a pain-relieving injection.”

He swallowed his explanation, thinking that You Huo wanted to argue with him.

Unexpectedly, the other party just lost his mind for a while and asked him: “How long have you been gone?”

“Twenty minutes, maybe.”

Youhuo nodded, stood up and entered the solitary room.

922 muttered “What a ghost” and slipped upstairs.

If in normal times, the system maliciously separated people, Youhuo would definitely do something to make it sick.

But today is an exception——

he wants to do something alone.

I don’t know whether the result is good or bad, so I don’t want to involve Qin Jiu this time.

The three hours in the dark were extremely long, but they passed in the end.

021 sent You Huo to the foot of the mountain, pointed at the iron fence with a serious face and said, “You can see the castle after passing through.”

Unexpectedly, You Huo asked: “Which way is the town?”

021: “Ah? This way.”

She pointed to a piece of wild grassland in the opposite direction. After saying this, she was shocked to realize something was wrong: “What are you doing in the town now?”

“Torture to extract confessions.”

Youhuo dropped these words, turned around and disappeared into the night.

He passed through the mist on the grass, and the town was indeed right in front of him.

Next to the central pool, the chapel stood eerily, with a few wall lights shining through the colored windows, like will-o’-the-wisps floating out of thin air.

Youhuo forced himself to ignore all the discomfort, climbed from the side of the church into the backyard, and entered the dungeon alone.

The witch doctor was gagged and tied tightly, huddled in the corner of the dungeon.

He’s two hands have been replaced with pig trotters, so I know that You Huo and Qin Zhu really dare to do anything, and they are not just trying to scare him.

Youhuo grabbed he by the collar, punched him awake and asked: “How to kill the Duke?”

The witch doctor subconsciously wanted to touch the place where he was beaten, but he could only move his ugly and weird hoof.He looked gloomy for a moment, then suddenly smiled: “Oh, have you found a problem?”

“How to kill the Duke?” You Huo asked coldly.

The witch doctor rolled his eyes. He didn’t know what he was thinking. Maybe he wanted to sell it off or negotiate a deal.

Youhuo let go of his hand like he was throwing away garbage, turned around and dragged a sheep over, and raised the knife expressionlessly.

The witch doctor has seen how scary he and Qin Jiu are, and they once left a psychological shadow.

At this time, when he saw that he was going to chop off the leg of lamb, he curled up his legs on the spot and shouted: “He must die voluntarily!”

Youhuo stopped, the blade of the knife was only a few inches away from the leg of lamb.

The witch doctor breathed a sigh of relief.

“Be specific.” Youhuo stared at him.

To avoid making the same mistake again, he would have to finish what the witch doctor had to say.

“The moment he was killed, he must be willing.”

“How is that possible?” You Huo frowned.

The witch doctor stared at the tip of his knife, and when he saw that he had dropped another inch, he quickly said: “It’s not impossible!”

“What do you mean?”

“You forgot, he is using someone else’s body.” the witch doctor said softly, “he is beating someone else’s heart. It is not impossible to make him willing. Can you think of a way to awaken the remaining conscience?”

“Let me tell you a secret.” The witch doctor said to he: “Some bodies have amazing willpower. When the duke is dying, those remaining things may be forced out, and maybe he can help. After killing the duke, remember to walk as far as possible, and don’t let he come into contact with the breath of living people.”

You were confused and doubtful: “The Duke is dead, what will happen to you?”

The witch doctor sighed and said, “It’s a bit troublesome, but it’s not hopeless.”

Nothing new could be dug out from he, so Youhuo threw he back.

Turn around and leave.

When I returned to the hut, I suddenly heard the soft sound of thin ropes.

Someone moaned and called “he”.

Youhuo Xunsheng searched for it and saw the bloody priest under the bed. He grabbed his boots and said in a dumb voice, “Didn’t you just leave? Why are you back again?”

Obviously, the poor man can no longer distinguish between today and tomorrow when he is huddled here, and he remembers what happened in the afternoon until midnight.

The priest said softly: “Burn the castle, remember… you must burn the castle after killing the Duke. Don’t listen to the witch doctor, burn it. Fire can redeem the souls of the dead.”

And underground, where they couldn’t see, the witch doctor snickered again: “The body has been dead for more than three days, and even the gods can’t wake it up.”
