Shen Mu Ning wiped Xin Chi's neck, behind his ears, hairline, and other areas with alcohol.
Seeing that the mask wouldn't come off, she increased the amount of alcohol she used.
After some fuss, a little curled edge finally appeared on his neck.
Sun Wu, Yan Bin, Ji Heng, and others standing nearby finally confirmed their guesses.
They are all waiting anxiously, wanting to know if this person is really the one Shen Mu Ning was talking about.
However, the anxiety of these people did not affect her steady movements.
She applied alcohol to the curl of her neck and slowly removed the mask.
Sure enough, when she removed her mask, a completely different face was revealed to everyone.
The person who had previously targeted Shen Mu Ning disregarded Sun Wu and the others, and walked up to Xin Chi in a few steps.
He saw the face, his eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost.
"This...this is what the deputy secretary-general of the provincial party committee looks like."
He finished speaking in a trembling voice before turning to ask Shen Mu Ning.
"Comrade Shen, how did you discover that he was wearing a mask?"
It's worth noting that after they captured him, they did observe him closely.
But no one noticed anything wrong with his face.
Looking at that mask, as thin as a cicada's wing, I was momentarily questioning the meaning of life.
When they do missions, they usually just disguise themselves. Who has ever seen such a sophisticated thing as disguise?
"Ever since you said that if he were in a high position, he would never do such a thing with his own face on his hands."
In fact, she noticed something was wrong when her mental power invaded Xin Chi's mind.
But she couldn't possibly say that she discovered it because of her keen observation with her spiritual power, could she?
So I had no choice but to use him as a shield!
Seeing the man staring at her speechlessly, Shen Mu Ning kindly offered another explanation.
"Actually, I've never seen what Xin Chi looks like. I just think my hypnosis technique won't go wrong."
"Furthermore, some members of their organization use masks and disguises, which is why I made this guess."
Didn't Qian Zhuang, whom she met before, also use disguise techniques to disguise himself as an old man?
However, his technique might not be perfect yet; at least she could tell without using her mental powers.
Of course, if an ordinary person observes carefully, they can also see the flaws in Qian Zhuang's actions.
However, this person's disguise skills were much more advanced, and ordinary people could hardly distinguish him with the naked eye.
"Yes, Comrade Shen is impressive. I apologize for questioning you before."
After hearing Shen Mu Ning's explanation, the person was still quite heartbroken.
But we also know that she is a capable person, not just because she knows hypnosis.
So he apologized readily and decisively, without making any excuses for himself.
“You have the right to question my interrogation results, so I accept them.”
They are unfamiliar with hypnosis, and since it differs from what they have witnessed, they naturally have doubts.
Although he was indeed a bit too aggressive, since the person who apologized was so quick to apologize, she naturally wouldn't dwell on that.
Seeing that the two had started talking, Yan Bin finally voiced his doubts.
"Little Shen, is this mask easy to make?"
Looking at this mask that's almost indistinguishable from a real person's face, he's really something else.
Well, they don't seem to use this much in their daily lives, but they just really like it.
Moreover, if everyone in this organization wore a mask, what would they need to investigate?
You never know when someone might walk right past you without even recognizing them.
This question really stumped Shen Mu Ning, even though she had seen the origin of Xin Chi's mask from his memories.
He also knew that such a perfectly fitting mask, without a single flaw, was very precious to him.
However, since she didn't know the material or manufacturing method of the mask, she couldn't really determine how difficult it was to make.
However, given his almost top-tier position in the antiques acquisition industry, he was a true leader.
The fact that they treasure this mask so much suggests it must have been quite difficult to make!
However, she couldn't just say it out loud; she had to wait until the interrogation to have Xin Chi say it.
"Uncle Yan, I don't know the specific process, so I really don't know how difficult it is to make."
Yan Bin was disappointed for a second upon hearing her answer.
Seeing how skillfully she removed the mask, he assumed she knew a lot about it.
Actually, Yan Bin doesn't think so, since her technique is really skilled.
However, the knowledge that masks can be removed with alcohol comes from Xin Chi's memories.
As for this skillful technique, it came from watching many videos of special effects makeup removal in modern times.
That's how professional makeup artists remove their makeup.
"Alright, since that's the case, Xiao Shen, you can continue the interrogation and see if there's anything else we don't know."
Their focus remains on solving the case and finding the mastermind behind the trafficking of cultural relics.
So Shen Mu Ning put the alcohol and mask aside and continued to push explosive news to everyone.
"You're already in a high position, why are you getting involved in this?"
Her question directly voiced what everyone was thinking: how many people could never reach his level in their entire lives?
As a result, he held such a position at such a young age, only in his forties, and yet...
"Because I was originally trained by him to do things for him."
It turned out that what Shen Mu Ning saw in his mind was that it was his superior who had discovered him, who came from a poor family since childhood.
Not only did he help him when he was poor and destitute, but he also saved his critically ill mother.
They also found a job for his mother and arranged for him and his younger brother to go to school.
From that moment on, he vowed to repay his benefactor.
When he was a child, he knew he didn't have much ability.
All he could do was study hard and strive for the best results.
After he went to university, he gradually came into contact with some of the things his benefactor had done.
At that time, he was well aware that what his benefactor had done was actually unacceptable under the law.
But now that he's made contact, how could that person let him get away?
After all, his mother and younger brother were also under that person's control.
Later, perhaps having seen more of the world, he himself entered officialdom.
It was his temperament and methods that allowed him to quickly stand out from a group of newcomers.
He himself gradually lost himself, wandering in complete darkness.
Who is your superior?
"Shi Zhixin, Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee."
Another bombshell dropped, leaving everyone bewildered and unsure how to react.
I thought he was the biggest fish caught in the antique resale business.
Who would have thought that the person above him would be this?
To put it mildly, Xin Chi could be considered to have climbed into the second tier of power in the province.
Then Shi Zhixin is definitely the fifth in command, no doubt about it.
