Chapter 193 Torture
Shen Zhichu's collarbone was very beautiful, and the man obviously liked to destroy anything beautiful. He used a sharp weapon to pierce her collarbone, and Shen Zhichu lay on the wooden board in pain.
She kept begging the other party to kill her, but the more she begged, the more vicious he became.
The anesthesia injected into her mouth made her tremble so much that she couldn't even make a sound, let alone bite off her tongue.
He tortured her to the point where her sanity was almost on the edge. The lie detector on his head didn't work at all. The man seemed to have been lost in the game until his men behind him reminded him.
He collected his expression and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Chen Zhichu, answer my questions carefully next time. If I am satisfied, I will let you go."
Chen Zhichu half closed his eyes, tears hung on his eyelashes and his eyes were without a trace of light.
The man took the map handed to him by his subordinate and asked: "Which direction did Li Jingshen move the underground mines of Nanshui Island?"
Shen Zhichu's body was exhausted to the extreme. She wanted to close her eyes and sleep, but as soon as she closed her eyes, her body ached terribly. She knew that the liquid that had just been injected into her body was evaporating.
Now, when she heard the man mention "Nanshui Island", her stiff face showed a slight reaction.
There are mines on Nanshui Island? Why didn't she know about this? So Li Jingshen bought Nanshui Island because of the valuable ore underneath, and the initial promise of transferring it to her name to build an amusement park was just a diversion?
Shen Zhichu looked up at the places that appeared on the map in the man's hand. She shook her head, but before she could say anything, the lie detector above her head suddenly made a sound.
The man half-closed his eyes, staring at her with hawk-like eyes. "You're still lying to me at this critical moment?"
Shen Zhichu's face was already pale, and after the sudden torture, it turned pale and blue. Her lips were as green as lotus roots. She bit her lips and wanted to say that she was not lying, but the medicine on her tongue had not yet worn off, and she could not make any sound.
She could only shake her head again and again, trying to tell the man in front of her wearing the Ghost King mask that she was not lying and she really didn't know.
But the more she showed this reaction, the louder the lie detector sounded, and the other party didn't believe her at all.
"I've heard that you're deeply in love with Li Jingshen, but I didn't expect it to be true. Even though you were sent here to be tortured like a ghost, you're still willing to keep it a secret for him."
The man slowly took out another syringe from the operating table. The strange red liquid made people shudder at the sight.
"I kidnapped you for two reasons: one is Nanshui Island, and the other is you."
"You said Li Jingshen cared more about Xia Mingyue, but I don't think so. To be honest, I've known him for so long and I've never seen him so devoted to someone. But those who follow him really don't have a good ending."
At first, everyone thought that the relationship between Li Jingshen and Shen Zhichu was more like that between a pet and its owner than a husband and wife.
After spending a long time together, the owner couldn't help but fall in love with the pet. However, the owner was usually arrogant and felt that the pet was not worthy of his love, so he always looked down on her. It was not until the pet got angry and bit him and was almost dying that he finally came to his senses, but it was too late.
Li Jingshen has his own ideas about doing things and never considers the feelings of others. To put it bluntly, he is used to being selfish, but he is also afraid.
Li Jingshen's parents both died in the turmoil fifteen years ago. Since then, only Grandpa Li and Li Jingshen are left in the Li family.
Li Jingshen didn't dare to get too close to anyone. To put it bluntly, in his living environment, any unnecessary emotions would become a threat to him.
Chen Zhichu thought Li Jingshen loved Xia Mingyue, but in fact he didn't love her at all. His heart had turned into a stone fifteen years ago and no one could warm it.
His extra feelings for Xia Mingyue were simply because the scene of him being rescued from the water six years ago was deeply imprinted in his memory and could not be erased.
But Shen Zhichu is an exception, perhaps even he himself does not know that he is an exception.
The man paused and said quietly, "Chen Zhichu, have you ever thought that Li Jingshen used you to exchange for Xia Mingyue as a disguised way of protecting you?" In order to give people the illusion that he cared about Xia Mingyue.
Of course, this was just his assumption. Li Jingshen was very thoughtful and no one could guess what he was really thinking. Once a relationship with such a person ended, he would be a very formidable opponent.
Shen Zhichu was unconscious, his ears were ringing like thunder and he couldn't hear anything.
However, she could sense the man touching her neck, and then there was a tingling sensation like a needle piercing her skin.
Compared with the previous cold brand and bone-piercing pain, this pain seemed nothing.
But after the stabbing pain in the neck, a dull pain suddenly burst out in the brain, as if a sponge was expanding in the brain and finally became harder and harder, squeezing the brain inside and cracking it.
This kind of pain that destroyed people's consciousness rushed from the outside to the inside, and within a few seconds, it reached the limit that Shen Zhichu could bear.
She opened her mouth, her voice hoarse and cracked, her eyes bulging with bloodshot, her ten fingers bound by the chains were taut like claws, her knuckles white, she clutched the chains in her dying moments, even her toes curled up in pain, she didn't care about the sharp weapon that pierced her collarbone and screamed desperately with her neck stretched.
"No..." She finally made a sound, but it was in pain.
The man patted the map in his hand. "Tell me where he moved the minerals."
"I... don't know..." The lie detector on the head screamed.
"Very good!" The man took the second syringe and pierced her neck. Shen Zhichu's long hair was messy and wet. As the medicine was injected, the blood vessels in her neck bulged out as if they were about to burst.
It hurts, it hurts to the extreme...it turns out this is what it means to be worse than death.
At that moment, Shen Zhichu felt that his soul had left his body and was floating in the air, watching himself struggling in pain below.
His whole body was covered in either cold sweat or shocking amounts of blood.
The man pinched her jaw and said in a hoarse voice, "Tell me, is it in J City or S City?"
Shen Zhichu's pupils trembled, and tears mixed with blood fell. Although it was so painful, she was still conscious.
"Just kill me... I really don't... I don't know. I'm not lying..."
As soon as she opened her mouth to answer the man's questions, the lie detector on her head would react. He simply believed that the device had left her speechless.
The expression hidden behind the Ghost King's mask changed again and again. He didn't expect that this woman would be so stubborn and still not speak.
The corners of his mouth curled up into a wicked grin: It's interesting, too interesting, more interesting than any life he had played with before. He hadn't seen someone so arrogant in a long time.
"Three injections."
The men behind him became stiff when they heard that they needed more injections. This kind of drug that destroyed people's sanity was not enough for a woman as delicate as a boneless person. Even they might not be able to endure two injections.
Now you have to inject five times. If you are not careful, your memory will be destroyed and your brain will become mentally retarded.
The needle tip pierced into the back of her neck again, causing Shen Zhichu's body to twitch in pain. It was not the pain of torn flesh, but as if a force was pinching her brain tightly, prying open the top of her head.
Her mind was now like a piece of driftwood floating in the ocean. The crazy pain caused the blood in her body to surge. She opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, which flowed down the iron chain around her neck and all over her body.
So cold... So painful... Li Jingshen, didn't you say you would protect me? Didn't you say you would come to save me? Why haven't you come yet? Why?
I hate you, I hate you...why did you use me!
If Li Jingshen had not put Nanshui Island under her name and she had not taken responsibility, things might not have turned out like this today.
Shen Zhichu moved his lips, but the voice was too soft to be heard clearly. Fortunately, the man understood lip reading and could faintly see the words "J City". Shen Zhichu was not fully aware that what he said at this moment could not be fully believed.
He didn't have much time. Li Jingshen might have found Xia Mingyue by now, and it wouldn't be long before they traced the blame back to him.
I thought I could get something out of her by just threatening her a little, but she was so stubborn that nothing could be done to pry her open.
He originally wanted to kill her, but now he felt reluctant. After all, this was the first time someone could hold out against him for so long. How tough!
Unfortunately, having a proud character is of no use, it will only make you suffer more.
He often tortures people, and with the violent factor in his body, he has many methods and extensive research. He knows which parts of the human body are painful but not fatal, and he also knows how to wake up a person who is about to die.
The man patted the lie detector on Shen Zhichu's head: "Does this thing work? Could it be broken? It shouldn't be..." How could it suddenly break down when he was interrogating Xia Mingyue? It must be that Shen Zhichu didn't tell the truth.
Ten minutes later, Shen Zhichu, who had just fainted, was woken up by the man again. She had never felt that time had passed so slowly as it did now, as if she was trapped in a nightmare that she could not get out of.
Shen Zhichu lowered his head, his throat was torn and burning with pain.
"You just said it was in J City."
J City… Chen Zhichu pulled the corner of his mouth and said silently in a hoarse voice: "If you think it is J City, then it is J City."
This time the polygraph's reaction was not that big. The man narrowed his eyes slightly. This woman was still not honest. Since he couldn't get anything out of her, he would try something else. It would be a good opportunity to deal with the fool he caught two days ago at the same time.
