Chapter 371 See how hard your bones are!
Huo Jianguo couldn't find out any information about Su Mei.
He only knew from Lou Shanchuan that Su Mei was taken away.
In order to find out about Su Mei's situation, Huo Jianguo even called Chen Yilon.
However, after asking around, Chen Yilon still couldn't find out where Su Mei was.
The professors in the research institute were also anxious, and Qin Zhengting was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
But they used all their connections, but could not find out what happened to Su Mei afterwards.
Suddenly, Su Mei seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.
The imprisoned Su Mei soon completely lost control of time.
The room where she was imprisoned had no windows and the lights inside were always on dimly.
Every time she wanted to fall asleep, she would be forcibly woken up.
The only food she was given was dry and hard steamed bread and half a cup of water that could not quench her thirst.
The food could only ensure that she would not starve to death, but those people clearly did not want her to live.
At first, Su Mei could still hold on.
As time went by, she began to feel anxious, distressed and desperate.
And those who interrogated her always just gave her one sentence: once you have thought it through, just speak up yourself.
Even Su Mei didn't know what they wanted her to say.
The cold and tough attitude almost brought Su Mei to the brink of collapse.
No normal person could endure this kind of method. When she was interrogated again, she said in a hoarse voice with an unclear mind, "Whatever you want me to say, whatever crime you want me to confess, just write it down and I will sign it."
"I admit everything!"
"Let me out, or kill me, please."
Her lips were dry and covered with blisters, and the high spirits she had when she first arrived were long gone.
Even though she had been a coward and begged for mercy humbly, those people still had no intention of letting her go.
If this continues, Su Mei feels that she will go completely crazy here.
No one could save her, and she couldn't save herself.
The confidence I once had suddenly became worthless.
As a time traveler, she thought she was sure of everything about herself.
Only now did she realize that she was still an ant.
Later, a middle-aged man came to the place where she was being interrogated and interrogated her.
The man was older, and when he arrived, the young men and women who had interrogated Su Mei some time ago stood behind him.
It was obvious that this middle-aged man had a higher status. He crossed his arms and said to Su Mei:
"Don't feel bad! Just say it if you feel bad, and get rid of it as soon as possible. What's the point of carrying it like this? I have to say it in the end."
"What do you want me to say? I am a person under special protection of the state. Is there any point in locking me up like this without any evidence?
In other words, if you really want to wrongly accuse me, then bring the blame you want to put on me. I at least want to know what you want me to do." Su Mei lowered her head while speaking, looking listless and not angry at all.
Now she is sometimes lucid and sometimes confused.
She wanted to kill someone.
The middle-aged man was silent for a while. Just when Su Mei thought he was going to leave impatiently, the middle-aged man suddenly said:
"Since you can't remember, let me remind you."
When Su Mei heard this, her heart suddenly shuddered.
She felt that the main course was finally about to be served. These people had tortured her for so long, and finally they had found a blame for her.
"I've already said it, I'll admit whatever you want me to." She wasn't a tough guy, and she would be the only one to suffer if she admitted it.
It's not a big deal that will harm the country. She can't bear it anymore. Just admit it! Death is better than suffering like this.
The middle-aged man organized his words and said, "In the research results you submitted a few months ago, you completed the synthesis of an organic compound called organoborane.
According to our intelligence, two scientists in Country M have been researching this for nine years.
As for your other five studies, we also found that two of them had been conducted by overseas researchers for many years.
Moreover, the research results you produced are the same as theirs, except that you produced them one step earlier than them.
How do you, a mountain girl who has not even graduated from junior high school, know all this? We have every reason to suspect that you have illegal connections abroad.
It was the overseas companies that took advantage of their operations to make you Dean Qin's apprentice, and used their resources to make you the dean of the research institute, right?
Leniency will be shown to those who confess; severity will be shown to those who resist. Please, President Su, explain these issues in detail.
What is the purpose of letting you hide abroad? Is it to cultivate infectious bacteria as the director of the Academy of Sciences and endanger this land? "
The words finally came to an end, and Su Mei was completely shocked.
She thought it was dirty water, but she didn't expect that she would become a person of suspicion.
It turns out that the things planted in her lab were not the highlight.
The knowledge that she was going to learn in the future was brought out in advance, which made her an object of suspicion.
So even though she was a person under special protection, she was still imprisoned like this.
When your position is in doubt, no protection order will work.
Su Mei felt a little sad. She would rather be maliciously splashed with dirty water and spread rumors than be truly regarded as a suspect.
"It's easy to find excuses to accuse someone of a crime. How can I prove that I didn't do it?" Su Mei asked.
If it was dirty water, if it was a frame-up, Su Mei could not fight against the darkness, she was willing to admit defeat.
But now someone told her that she was really treated as a criminal, and she was unwilling to admit it.
The middle-aged man became impatient after hearing what Su Mei said: "You are still making excuses. A junior high school graduate became Qin Zhengting's teacher, married a military officer, and became the top scorer in the college entrance examination.
After arriving at Yanjing, you have been promoted rapidly, but the achievements you have presented are not in line with your qualifications. Who would believe you if you say there are no foreign forces operating behind you?
You are so impatient and have developed so quickly. This is not the first time we have noticed you."
"Team leader, why are you telling her so much?" The woman behind the middle-aged man looked at Su Mei with disdain and said contemptuously, "No one can hold out for more than a week. Just lock her up for another three days at most and she will confess everything."
Su Mei caught the woman's words.
No one could hold out for a week, so they could lock her up for three more days at most? In other words, only four days had passed.
It turned out that the time was so short that Su Mei thought at least half a month had passed.
This kind of isolation from the world and sleep deprivation can really make people lose their cognition completely.
Su Mei was so sleepy that she wanted to bite her tongue and commit suicide.
But she didn't really bite it too much, because common sense told her that one cannot kill oneself by biting one's tongue.
TV dramas are all lies.
After waiting for a while, the middle-aged man finally lost his patience. He stood up and looked at Su Mei coldly:
"Then hang in there! Let me see how tough your bones are."
