Xia Chujian closed his eyes, as if trying hard to control himself, and whispered, "...It was...I got it from the Black Tower in the center of the Kingdom of Destiny..."
Emperor Tan Tai Hongyuan suddenly turned around and looked at her, his mental attacks becoming more intense and colder, as if he didn't care at all about the irreversible damage this mental attack would cause to an ordinary person's brain!
"The Black Tower?! There's actually a Black Tower in the Kingdom of Devotion?! How did you find the Maze of the Underworld from the Black Tower?!"
Xia Chujian also found that the electric shock on his wrist was getting more painful, without any pause, as if the program had gone awry to the point of disorder.
Her face turned from sallow to waxy red, her fingers twitched, and she uttered a few words intermittently from between her teeth: "I... I... I... didn't enter the Black Tower of Babel. I found it at the bottom of the tower after it collapsed..."
This is the truth.
No matter what the emperor asked, Xia Chujian always said this.
In the end, Xia Chujian found that the electric shock on her wrist had reached a level that she could no longer bear, so she simply rolled her eyes and pretended to faint.
When His Majesty the Emperor saw the tall and thin girl fall to the ground with a thud, his expression gradually became gloomy.
He knew about his mental attacks, and in fact, he only used the lowest intensity of mental power.
Because he knew that this was an ordinary person without mental power.
If I use my ultimate move and kill her in one go, how can I still ask her questions?
But I didn't expect that the girl fainted before I could even ask her a few questions.
Ordinary people who can't evolve genetically are always useless...
Emperor Tan Tai Hong Yuan sighed and said loudly, "Take her down for a lie detector test. Remember, don't use mental power, use the instrument directly."
A eunuch appeared quietly from somewhere.
With a wooden face, he dragged the unconscious Xia Chujian from the imperial study to a small room.
That was a small room attached to the imperial study, so Huo Yushen and Kang Shanxing, who were waiting outside, didn't know about it.
Xia Chujian was pretending to be unconscious and didn't dare to move at all.
When she was dragged into the small room, the back of her head hit the door threshold hard!
Xia Chujian was in so much pain that even with her eyes closed, she could still see stars.
She only cursed in her heart the eunuch who dragged her legs and dragged her away.
The eunuch dragged her into the small room attached to the imperial study, and with just one hand, he lifted her up and placed her on the sofa.
Then he lifted a light gray tablecloth with silver edges, revealing a half-person-high lie detector underneath.
He pulled out a bunch of probes and pressed them tightly against her head.
Xia Chujian thought that Huo Yushen had used enough probes when he gave her a "lie detector rehearsal".
I didn't expect that compared with the lie detector test in the palace, it was really nothing.
The densely packed probes formed a metal cap that covered the entire upper half of her head.
But this also makes the rice-sized metal smart hairpins on her head work better.
Because of the program left by Qi Lu, one must touch the polygraph probe before one can follow the connecting line into the polygraph and control it.
Then, the eunuch took out something like a snuff bottle and shook it in front of Xia Chujian's nose.
A disgusting smell that could bring the dead back to life suddenly made Xia Chujian's whole body tremble uncontrollably and he "woke up".
The eunuch seemed to be accustomed to this situation.
There was no expression on his face, and his tone was even without any fluctuation as he said, "Just sit still when you wake up. Now I'll ask you a question, and you answer it. Be honest."
"If you lie, even the Bodhisattva of the Holy Temple can't save you."
Xia Chujian: “…”
This person's meaning is really concise and to the point!
Xia Chujian looked terrified. He slowly opened his eyes, covered his mouth with his hands, and pretended to vomit.
The eunuch didn't care at all. He grabbed her by the scruff of the neck and turned her to the side, saying, "There's a trash can here. If you want to vomit, vomit here."
Xia Chujian took a deep breath and said weakly, "I won't vomit."
The eunuch nodded: "As you wish."
He released Xia Chujian's neck, turned on the lie detector and began questioning her.
But at this time, Qi Lu's program had already taken over the lie detector.
No matter what the eunuch said or how Xia Chujian answered, the lie detector would determine that Xia Chujian was telling the truth.
Of course, Xia Chujian didn't make up stories at will.
She just repeated what she had said to Huo Yushen and His Majesty the Emperor before.
There are slight differences in the details, but they are not contradictory differences. Rather, they seem to supplement the previous statements from different angles.
This degree of difference is completely allowed and more realistic.
Because this can reflect the particularity of human memory.
Huo Yushen and his team are researching this kind of thing, so in the Special Security Bureau, polygraphs are completely ineffective for field personnel.
All field personnel must undergo training and become immune to polygraphs before they can be sent out on missions.
They use lie detectors on non-field personnel and ordinary people.
Xia Chujian is currently at the stage where a lie detector can be used.
Because although she is a staff member of the Special Security Bureau and has done field work, she has not undergone systematic field training, and she is still not immune to the polygraph test.
Xia Chujian thought that if she let Qilu's program take over the lie detector, she could just let it judge that every word she said was true.
As a result, she found that she had underestimated the physical damage caused to her by this half-human-height lie detector.
