Ning Zhiheng knew that truly trained spies were relatively difficult to deal with, and some professional spies had even received training in dealing with severe torture.
Moreover, agents who have always been on the front lines of intelligence work are undoubtedly among the best in terms of mental fortitude, making breakthroughs much more difficult.
So he chose that self-taught agent, who didn't know much about real espionage methods and should be easier to break through.
Kazunari Yamauchi was quickly taken into the interrogation room and tied to a thick wooden stake. His heart was filled with despair; he had never imagined that his trip to Nanjing would end so quickly, and he would be captured by Chinese agents.
He had underestimated the danger of the situation. He should have listened to Kosuke Ikeda and abandoned the investigation of that dangerous target, and evacuated in time. Now he regrets it deeply!
Ning Zhiheng glanced at the prisoner in front of him and didn't ask any questions according to procedure. He knew that these Japanese wouldn't admit their mistakes until they were faced with a death sentence, so he didn't bother to ask any more questions.
He directly ordered the interrogators: "Same old rules, use heavy torture. I have no patience to talk to him anymore. Don't stop until he talks!"
The interrogators were already used to Ning Zhiheng's extremely brutal interrogation methods. They immediately found the tools, and without saying a word, they held down Yamauchi Kazushige and began to operate them.
Immediately, the interrogation room was filled with piercing screams as long iron rods, red-hot branding irons, and icy water soaked in coarse salt were applied to Yamauchi Kazunari in turn.
Finally, no part of Kazunari Yamauchi's skin was intact, and his whole body reeked of the acrid smell of burnt flesh. Rough iron brushes scraped away strips of flesh, which were then poured over him with cold salt water.
The interrogators faithfully carried out Ning Zhiheng's orders, never stopping until the prisoner spoke. Several of them used all their skills, and even put Yamauchi Kazunari in an electric chair.
Finally, Yamauchi Kazunari, who had been tortured and ravaged beyond recognition, spoke.
The Bushido spirit he had always upheld as his belief, and His Majesty the Emperor, whom he regarded as the embodiment of God, were all forgotten at this moment!
He simply couldn't imagine that there was such suffering in the world. Faced with such endless torment, he bowed his head!
Ning Zhiheng walked up to Yamauchi Kazunari and said coldly, "You Japanese are a bunch of spineless cowards. You won't behave unless you're beaten. My time is limited. Now I'll ask you questions and you answer them. If you dare to play tricks on me, don't forget that you have an accomplice. If his testimony is different from yours, you can forget about living!"
Kazunari Yamauchi didn't even have the strength to nod. His eyes were empty, and he endured the tearing pain all over his body, only able to say in a low, hoarse voice, "Ask away!"
"What are your real names?" Ning Zhiheng asked.
"My name is Kazunari Yamauchi, and his name is Kosuke Ikeda."
"The Japanese spy organization you belong to?"
"Japan's Special Higher Police!"
"What is your mission in Nanjing this time?"
"Conduct a detailed investigation into Chinese intelligence organizations, especially the Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau, our main adversary, and gather comprehensive information on its key personnel for the Special Higher Police Headquarters to use as a correct reference!"
Why do this?
"During this period, our intelligence organization in Nanjing has suffered unprecedented blows and heavy losses, but we have been unable to find the real reason. The head of the intelligence group, Yuji Imai, has ordered us to enter Nanjing to investigate the specific reasons and to conduct a comprehensive investigation of you."
"How many people came this time? When did they enter Nanjing?"
"Ten people, a total of ten, entered Nanjing twenty days ago!"
Where are you hiding?
“There is a factory called Daming Cotton Mill in the north of the city. The cotton mill has been abandoned. There is an old warehouse inside. There is no one there anymore. We hid there.”
"Who is your leader? What weapons are you carrying? How many? How are you usually responsible for guard duty?"
"We are just a temporary team, led by Kenji Takeshita! Our weapons are just his own sidearm and twenty grenades, nothing else. We usually work in pairs, taking turns on guard duty."
"What are Takeshita Kenji's resume and abilities like?"
"He is a senior agent of the organization, experienced and with strong organizational skills. His main strengths are marksmanship and average hand-to-hand combat ability!"
Do you usually spend time together?
"Yes, every night when I get home, I summarize the information I have on hand, categorize it, and record it into documents."
"You've been in Nanjing for so long, have you made contact with the intelligence group there?"
"No, oh! Really, no! According to the rules, we can't have any horizontal connections!"
Ning Zhiheng released his foot from Shan Neiyi's hand, which was covered in iron spikes, and said coldly, "I hope you're not lying to me, or you'll be in ten or a hundred times more pain than you are now!"
After saying that, he waved his hand and ordered the interrogators, "Take him away and replace him with that Kosuke Ikeda."
The interrogators quickly dragged away the barely recognizable Yamauchi Kazunari. They had expected this outcome; under this King of Hell, almost no one could walk out of the interrogation room standing up.
Just then, the interrogation room door opened, and entered were Gu Zhengqi, the head of the intelligence section, and his capable subordinate, Yu Cheng.
When Ning Zhiheng saw that it was Gu Zhengqi who came in, he was very surprised and quickly stood up to ask, "Section Chief Gu? What brings you here?"
Gu Zhengqi always had a big smile on his face when they met, and he was known as a smiling tiger. Ning Zhiheng was always wary of him and never dared to offend him easily.
