Apocalypse big shot Xu Jinhuan transmigrated, and to top it off, she became the true daughter unloved by her parents.
She thought she was in for a satisfying domestic struggle and revenge sto...
"Bah! You guys can't get anything useful out of me. I killed so many of my brothers, but I still have my integrity!"
Xu Jinhuan pushed the door open and walked in, mocking, "Oh, you still have some backbone. I remember your brothers didn't seem to listen to you very much, and they even burned paper money for you during Qingming Festival."
When the bandit leader saw Xu Jinhuan, his arrogance instantly dissipated. He said stubbornly, "They have no choice. They are forced by you guys."
Xu Jinhuan laughed out loud when he heard this. "Look at what you said, as if we are the bad guys and you are the good guys who are being forced. Doesn't your face hurt after saying this?"
The bandit leader snorted coldly and said in a strong but weak tone: "We have different positions, so no one should say bad things about the other!"
Xu Jinhuan shook his head speechlessly, "I won't argue with you any more. I'll give you something real."
After saying that, he rummaged in his sleeves and actually took out a piece of mulberry paper the size of a human face from the space.
When the bandit leader saw the piece of paper, he curled his lips in disdain and said, "You look down on me too much. I have seen everything. How can I be afraid of a small piece of paper?"
Xu Jinhuan didn't argue with him anymore, but just smiled and said, "I hope you can still speak later."
After saying that, Xu Jinhuan put the piece of mulberry paper into the basin of water, and after it was soaked, he took it out of the basin.
Then, she handed it to a nearby officer and instructed, "Put this paper on the bandit's face. The tighter the better."
The officer respectfully took the mulberry paper and applied it carefully to the bandit's face according to Xu Jinhuan's instructions. He seemed afraid that it might not adhere to the surface, so he smoothed it carefully with his hand.
At first, the bandit leader did not take the paper on his face seriously, but as time went on, the paper seemed to have stuck to his face, and it became increasingly difficult for him to breathe.
“Ugh, help…help me!”
The bandit leader involuntarily stretched out his hand and wanted to ask for help from the people around him.
Xie Datou and the officers looked at this scene in surprise. They never expected that such a thin piece of paper could have such great power.
Xu Jinhuan walked slowly to the side of the bandit leader and asked softly, "Do you want to confess?"
The bandit leader nodded hurriedly, "Come on, take this..."
After just a few words, he was a little out of breath again, but his frantic hands and kicking legs showed his anxiety.
"Just reveal it to him." Xu Jinhuan said with great mercy.
The officer obediently peeled off the piece of mulberry paper. As soon as the paper left the bandit leader's face, he heard him breathing heavily.
“Hoo, hoo…”
The bandit leader panted for a long time before he looked deeply at Xu Jinhuan with his bloodshot eyes.
"As expected of a woman I like, how cruel!"
After the bandit leader finished speaking, he saw Xu Jinhuan's hand reaching for the mulberry paper again, and immediately waved his hand and said in panic.
"No more, I won't say it again, stop sticking this piece of paper on my face!"
Xu Jinhuan glanced at him and walked over to the chair next to Xie Datou and sat down.
"Don't talk about other things. Tell me now, or else..."
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, her gaze lingered on the piece of mulberry paper for a while.
This action of hers instantly startled the bandit leader, who sat upright on the stool and began to confess.
"My name is Ma Wencai, I am..."
"cough"
Before the bandit leader could finish his words, Xu Jinhuan, who was drinking water, choked. She said sorry. When she was a child, she was amazed by Ma Wencai, played by Chen Guanlin, throughout her childhood.
Now hearing the bandit leader calling out this name, I felt a little stressed.
Xu Jinhuan waved his hand, "Well, it's okay, you continue talking."
The bandit leader's heart finally settled down. He was really afraid that Xu Jinhuan would be dissatisfied and make him feel the punishment of mulberry paper again.
"My name is Ma Wencai. I have been a bandit in the capital, Jizhou and other places. This time, I received an order from Tianji Pavilion. The order asked us to rob the young girls in the exile team and kill some people in the exile team."
Xie Datou asked in confusion: "What do they want to do by snatching young girls?"
Ma Wencai sneered upon hearing this, "It seems that the officer is still a fool. What else can he do with this girl? Of course he will send her to a brothel in Jiangnan."
Seeing that Xie Datou hadn't reacted yet, Ma Wencai kindly explained.
“Most of the families exiled this time hold official positions, and their daughters are all real ladies from wealthy families.
The talented men in Jiangnan love this kind of confidante who is both knowledgeable and good-looking the most. "
After saying that, Ma Wencai sighed again, "This owner knows how to do business. Apart from hiring people and spending money, everything else is a zero-cost business."
Xu Jinhuan waited until Ma Wencai finished speaking, then he looked at him with a smile, and then asked, "I'm afraid you didn't say everything, right?"
Ma Wencai was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I've told you everything. Your paper punishment is so terrible, how could I dare to hide it?"
Xu Jinhuan slowly blew on the hot tea in the cup in his hand, looked at the curling hot steam, and did not respond to Ma Wencai's words.
For a moment, the room was as quiet as a grave, gloomy and depressing.
Ma Wencai swallowed subconsciously, moved his fingers, and grabbed his outer shirt.
Xu Jinhuan noticed his little action and still said nothing, but just waved his hand gently.
The officer standing next to Ma Wencai quickly understood what she meant, picked up the mulberry paper next to him, and put it back into the basin.
Ma Wencai looked at the officer's actions, and the hope in his heart disappeared in an instant. He asked with a sad face.
"If I tell you, can you guarantee my safety?"
Xu Jinhuan smiled and said, "You seem to have misunderstood. You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me."
There are now two paths before Ma Wencai, one is to die early, the other is to die later.
Ma Wencai gritted his teeth and chose to die later.
"I'm telling you everything this time!"
After that, Marvin took a deep breath before continuing.
"Before I became a bandit, I was a soldier in the army. One day, the army suddenly issued an order for us to leave the barracks and go to various places to become bandits.
I was unwilling to go at first, but that man had absolute power in the army, and those who were unwilling to go died gradually. I became afraid, and left with a group of people.
Later, I found that being a bandit was pretty good. There were no restrictions at all. Apart from the occasional tasks I had to complete, I could do whatever I wanted. "
After listening to Ma Wencai's words, Xie Datou seemed to remember something. He suddenly slammed the table hard and said, "It turns out that there have been many exiles killed in recent years. It's all you who did it!"
