Chapter 1754 These two girls are so fierce
"Really?" someone asked, with a mixture of expectation and uncertainty.
Shu Yu nodded, "His Majesty is wise and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. So, just answer my questions honestly."
"Yes, yes, yes, please ask, young lady, we will answer to the best of our knowledge."
Constable Hong and his men exchanged glances, seemingly plotting something.
A moment later, a constable stood up and said, “Miss, please ask me first. I am innocent. My family is waiting for me to go out and reunite with them. I have no knowledge of what they have done.”
Shu Yu looked at the person and asked, "What's your name?"
"Fang Qi".
Shu Yu immediately laughed. "Fang Qi? The neighbor of the brother of Magistrate Cheng's new concubine, Liu? Five days ago, when I was patrolling the magistrate's private residence, I stayed inside for more than two hours. As far as I know, not many people are allowed to enter Magistrate Cheng's private residence. You stayed there for so long. What were you doing in there? Were you transporting meat to the black market?"
Fang Qi's expression changed drastically.
Shu Yu laughed, "Do you think I'm easy to fool? Do you think I'm some kind of young lady who would soften up after hearing your complaints? Someone like you, who still wants to cause trouble even when facing death, deserves even greater punishment. Guards, take him out and interrogate him properly."
Soon, a temporary prison guard came forward, opened the cell door, and pulled the man out.
Fang Qi gasped, his mind went blank, and without saying a word, he shoved the officer to the ground, dragging his heavy handcuffs and shackles as he turned and ran towards the prison gate.
Upon seeing this, Constable Hong, who shared a cell with him, immediately wanted to follow suit.
Shu Yu sneered, "Ying Xi."
Ying Xi turned around and kicked Constable Hong back, kicking him directly in the groin as he fell to the ground with a thud.
"Ouch..." Constable Hong screamed in agony, and the others who had originally wanted to escape with him suddenly shuddered at the sight.
At the same time, Shu Yu raised her wrist, and the hidden arrow flew out with a 'whoosh', hitting Fang Qi directly in the shoulder.
Fang Qi staggered and fell to the ground. The officers rushed over and pinned him down.
Shu Yu withdrew her hand, her gaze sweeping over the other cells one by one, finally landing on Constable Hong, who was lying on the ground screaming in pain, sweat pouring down his forehead. "Anyone else want to try?"
Everyone unconsciously swallowed hard. Were these two girls really that fierce?
Shu Yu brandished the hidden dart in his hand. "I don't know what you're thinking. Trying to escape with handcuffs and shackles on your feet? Do you think you can outrun this hidden dart? I'm not afraid to tell you, since I'm here to interrogate you, I also have the right to shoot you on the spot. If you really anger me, I might as well not ask any more questions. Anyway, you were the ones who tried to escape first, so I have a legitimate reason to kill you."
The people who were originally standing by the railing couldn't help but take two steps back, looking at her with some nervousness.
Shu Yu sneered, "So, you either obediently cooperate and confess everything you need to, and then you might be able to get leniency. You all have families, right? Parents, wives, and children, right? Even if you don't think about yourselves, don't you think about them too?"
Many people lowered their heads, because not everyone is cold-blooded and disregards their families. Most of them will go astray, either because they have something on them that others can use against them, or because they are ambitious and want to make a career for themselves, or because they become someone else's tool without even realizing it.
