Chapter 451 A Heartbreaking Scene
"Jiang Xiaomei is in a mental hospital!" Qian Rong had no choice but to confess. She would rather die than watch her legs become boneless and still alive.
Thinking about this, she felt that it might be worse than death. During these two hours, she was subjected to three kinds of torture. However, they were all standard punishments, such as whipping, clamping, and water torture.
The most terrifying thing was the water torture. Every time I felt like I was going to die, I would be pulled out of the water and then pressed into the water again.
"When did you switch identities with her?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"She went crazy half a year ago. That guy called Zhao Shuo didn't continue with Jiang Xiaomei, so Jiang Xiaomei started to act weird. I thought it was a good opportunity, so I brought her to me, took photos and videos of her, and used the information to find a plastic surgeon to perform plastic surgery on me. I met you just after I recovered!" Qian Rong told me everything like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
"Lock her up and wait until I find Xiaomei to deal with her!" Zhao Xiaofei said viciously.
"Zhao Xiaofei, where are the bodies of my father and brother?" Qian Rong asked Zhao Xiaofei.
"They died in my heart. Do you think I would leave their bodies behind? Ridiculous!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"Then give me a quick death, I miss them!" Qian Rong said with a sneer.
Zhao Xiaofei waved to Xiao Si, and Xiao Si signaled two strong women to drag Qian Rong away.
Seeing the person being dragged away, Zhao Xiaofei said, "Continue to interrogate her, at least 20 times in a row. If she says a wrong word during this period, use pliers to pull out one of her nails. When all the nails on her hands and feet are pulled out, pull out her teeth for me. I don't want to be deceived by her again!"
Xiao Si shuddered all over after hearing this, but he had to listen to the prince's words.
Zhao Xiaofei was actually afraid that Qian Rong would lie to him. What if the mental hospital she mentioned was a fake address? Or was it a trap? That's why he had to torture her!
In the interrogation room in the prison, five of Qian Rong's nails had been pulled out and his left hand was covered in blood.
Qian Rong's face was twisted in pain, and her whole body was shaking. Several experts in internal security interrogation were constantly interrogating her.
"I, I, confessed everything. I'm telling the truth." Qian Rong fainted after saying this.
A guard picked up a nearby bucket and poured it over her head. The cold water was indeed effective, and Qian Rong slowly regained consciousness after being stimulated by it.
Several internal guards began questioning him again, and Qian Rong cursed, "Zhao Xiaofei! Damn you!"
When the internal security heard this, he slapped Qian Rong in the face, causing blood to ooze from the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that you are not honest! This time I will let you see our methods! Come on, bring up the nail board!" said an internal guard.
As the inner guard finished speaking, two jailers came up carrying a large wooden board with countless nails nailed on it. The nails were pointed upwards, emitting a sinister cold light.
Zhao Xiaofei knew that the internal security would torture Qian Rong in various ways. He was furious, determined to see Qian Rong tortured to death to appease his hatred. Princess Zhaoren's death had been the greatest blow to Zhao Xiaofei, and now, knowing that Jiang Xiaomei had gone mad and was being used by this woman, his rage was uncontrollable. He considered it a kindness not to let Qian Rong suffer the same treatment as Yuan Chonghuan.
The eardrum-piercing screams were heard again in the interrogation room, and then there was no movement.
Zhao Xiaofei returned to the palace, and Li Sihong sat beside him and massaged his head.
Li Sihong asked, "Husband, what happened?"
"After asking, we found out that she pretended to be someone else to sneak in, and then spread rumors to create rebellion!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"It's a pity for Sister Zhaoren, husband, why don't we move to Jiangnan? To Nanjing!" said Li Sihong.
"Why?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"As the saying goes, it's easy to dodge a spear but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. My sisters and children don't want to be frightened like this again. Now that she is the empress, we might get in her way," said Li Sihong.
Zhao Xiaofei turned around and looked at Li Sihong, only to see an inexplicable fear in Li Sihong's eyes.
"Let's wait a little longer!" Zhao Xiaofei said. This time, he didn't refute Li Sihong's statement. They said women's intuition was the most accurate, so he wouldn't dare to be careless again.
"What are you waiting for?" Li Sihong asked.
"After I have dealt with some things, I will take you to Jiangnan." Zhao Xiaofei said and gently patted Li Sihong's hand.
Zhao Xiaofei plans to return to modern society and find the real Jiang Xiaomei. He will spend his entire life atoning for his guilt towards her! He also has to protect his mother, son, and his eldest brother's family.
Qian Rong must have contacted someone there; they wouldn't remain indifferent to such wealth. They'd definitely be taking action in secret. My mother's place was relatively safe with the police watching. But over time, those people would definitely threaten me by kidnapping my mother and son, as well as my eldest brother's family.
So the next focus is how to kill those mercenaries, or bring my mother and others to the Ming Dynasty.
After a few days of rest, Zhao Xiaofei returned to modern society. He wanted to find Jiang Xiaomei according to the address Qian Rong told him.
Jiang Xiaomei was imprisoned in a mental hospital in the suburbs of Nanjing.
The surroundings seem rather desolate, and it feels like there’s no need to set up a background for a horror movie, plus the sound effects are absolutely perfect.
Zhao Xiaofei arrived at the hospital's reception room. A middle-aged man poked his head out and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm here to visit a patient, her name is Jiang Xiaomei," said Zhao Xiaofei.
The middle-aged man glanced at Zhao Xiaofei and said, "Register!"
Zhao Xiaofei picked up a pen and wrote down Zhao Xiaokun's name and ID number, and then the middle-aged man opened the big iron gate.
After entering, they came to the hospital reception room. A young and strong man came over, stopped Zhao Xiaofei and said, "Are you here to visit Jiang Xiaomei?"
"Yes!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"Her hospital bill is about to expire. Do you still need to renew it?"
Zhao Xiaofei was surprised to hear that Qian Rong hadn't come in a long time. The hospital bill he paid was about to expire.
"No need to continue. Can I take her away today?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"Okay, go see her first! Room 205 on the third floor!"
Zhao Xiaofei followed the man's instructions and went to the third floor. He felt like a black market hospital with no formal procedures. There were few nurses, but there were plenty of burly men. It felt more like a prison, with the occasional patient crying, yelling, or laughing like a lunatic.
He slowly approached Room 205 and came to the door. He looked inside through the observation hole on the door. Just one look and Zhao Xiaofei's heart was broken.
Jiang Xiaomei squatted on the bed, her hair disheveled, her face filthy, as if she hadn't washed in days. Her clothes were worn, with yellow spots on some of them. The room also reeked of feces and urine!
She looked around blankly, and when she saw the eyes in the observation hole, she suddenly jumped out of bed and shouted towards the door: "Xiao Fei! Are you here to pick me up?"
