I traveled through time and space as a villain and became her heart-stealer.

The next moment, the huge blood coffin made a bang and turned into a sky full of fluorescent light and disappeared.

The mysterious man in black adjusted his mask and walked towards Richard again.

"I have a few questions to ask you, and I hope Mr. Richard can tell me the truth."

Like a death knell, the familiar voice rang in my ears again.

Richard stared at all this in a daze, as motionless as a sculpture, and no longer had the will to resist.

With his shoulders sank, the mysterious man in black placed his right hand on Richard's right shoulder. However, what he didn't expect was that Richard's body collapsed to the ground like an earthworm.

"Have you had a mental breakdown so soon..."

The mysterious man in black could not help but stand there in a daze, and after a long silence, he muttered to himself.

"Did I go too far?"

"Well, since it has come to this, I might as well ask all the questions I want to ask."

Thinking of this, the mysterious man in black coughed lightly, pretended to be deep and stood beside the half-crazy Richard, and slowly said:

"You have five seconds to answer my first question, or you will suffer the consequences."

The drizzle was falling, hitting their faces. A ray of sunlight penetrated the dark clouds and fell on the rain-soaked street, reflecting the sparkling water.

The battle ended unexpectedly quickly, and even the men in black didn't have time to prepare.

However, all this is still within his plan.

Chapter 70 Three Questions

"The first question is, is the Pleasure Empire's sabotage operation only targeting Beloved City?"

The man in black looked down at Richard's numb expression with a cold tone.

At this time, Richard lay on his back on the ground, letting the rain wet his body.

He looked aimlessly at the sky, at the thickest dark clouds, indifferent.

The dark clouds came and went, gathered and dispersed.

Suddenly, Richard's eyes were empty and his face expressionless as he slowly spoke:

"I don't know much, but... Beloved City seems to be just one of the targets of this attack."

Richard's tone was full of fatigue. After a long silence, he finally uttered a few words.

The mysterious man in black's tone became gloomy.

"Are there any other targets for attack?"

"Yes."

The mysterious man in black nodded slightly and made a judgment in his mind.

It seems that this operation is huge in scale and has a high level of confidentiality.

Even a master like Richard only has a partial understanding of the action.

"The second question is the relevant information of all the people involved in the operation, including you." The mysterious man in black still had a cold tone.

Richard glanced at it tiredly, then looked up at the vast sky, his eyes blank.

This time, he refused to speak anything.

The mysterious man in black was a little surprised. He was clearly mentally broken, but he still kept his mouth shut.

It seems that the Empire of Joy also has its own set of rules and regulations.

"If you don't speak, I can only use some inferior means to force you to speak."

The man in black said this lightly, and then took out a black pill from his pocket.

Richard's gaze gradually froze.

"what are you planning to do?"

He had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

The man in black smiled coldly and said in an evil tone:

"The Honesty Pill. After you take this pill, you will never be able to lie again in your life."

"Of course, you will tell us everything you know during this interrogation. Besides that, you will not be able to hide certain things about yourself."

At this point, a snorting sound came from under the mask of the man in black.

"For example, your XP."

Richard's expression gradually became dull and frozen.

"You will tell all this in person, and it will be widely spread in the Pleasure Empire, and you will enjoy it endlessly."

"For example, you embezzled gold bars and melted the money you stole from the Pure Love Kingdom to make little golden figurines."

"And you last night—"

"Okay, stop talking."

Before the man in black could finish his words, Richard took the lead and spoke expressionlessly:

"Okay, I'll confess everything."

He spoke word by word, gritting his teeth, his expression ashen.

"Very good." The mysterious man in black nodded slightly, then took out a pen and notebook from his pocket and began to take notes.

"There are nine people involved in this operation, all of them are high-ranking women from the Joy Empire. I really don't know their identities."

"But there is one thing I guess is probably true."

The man in black seemed interested.

"what's up?"

After hesitating for a few seconds, the man in black spoke with an extremely serious expression and a solemn tone:

"They came to the Pure Kingdom to find someone."

The man in black was thoughtful.

"You should know who they are looking for, right?"

"I am not sure."

The man in black nodded and fell into deep silence.

This kind of chase drama seems to sound more like a personal vendetta than a conflict between two countries of pure love and pleasure.

However, the person who could get nine high-ranking officials of the Joyful Empire to take action at the same time was truly extraordinary.

I really don’t know which unlucky guy would be targeted by nine beautiful women in the upper echelons of the Joy Empire at the same time.

If it were him, he would definitely pack up and run away immediately.

The man in black thought to himself.

"Okay, last question."

The man in black put away the black pill, and then his tone suddenly became low:

"As for the other questions, I don't mind if you lie to me a little. After all, I'm not the inspector of the Pure Love Kingdom."

"But this is the only issue. If you dare to lie, you'd better consider the consequences."

The man in black paused briefly and spoke in a cold tone, word by word:

"Why did you betray Lianna?"

The drizzle seemed to have stopped suddenly.

Richard stood there in a daze, his brain was a little frozen for a moment, and he didn't understand the meaning of the words of the man in black.

Why did Lianna's name appear at this time?

Richard blinked and stared at the mask on the man in black, feeling that the laughing scene before him was increasingly weird.

The inexplicable sense of disharmony made Richard feel a little uncomfortable.

Who is he? Richard's doubts became more and more obvious.

"The term betrayal is actually somewhat problematic."

Taking a deep breath, Richard tried to calm himself down, then slowly spoke:

"There has never been any betrayal between Lianna and me."

"Because from the very beginning, she was betrayed unilaterally - by her parents."

Hearing this, the man in black couldn't help but pause.

"What do you mean?" he asked coldly.

"An honest transaction, worth three gold coins."

Richard sneered and continued:

"Her parents personally handed the money to the people of Joy Empire, and finally handed it to me."

"Compared to me, don't you think her parents are the traitors?"

A smile appeared on Richard's face, which was full of sadness, and his tone was slightly bitter.

The mysterious man in black was stunned at first, then he came to his senses and understood the meaning of Richard's words.

It was Lianna's parents who sold her to Richard!

"The Kingdom of Pure Love sounds like it holds high the banner of justice, but what is the truth?"

At this time, Richard smiled bitterly, then slowly raised his head, looked at the man in black with difficulty and said:

“Although it may look bright and beautiful, the filth hidden in the shadows will only make it more rotten.”

"If the teachings of the Empire of Joy are promoted in this land, there will be fewer silly girls like her..."

"Don't you think that I am doing this for Lianna's own good?"

The drizzle fell, dripping on Richard's numb face, splashing small water droplets.

The cold rain was getting heavier and heavier. The two people looked at each other, one taller and one shorter, and no one spoke.

At this time, Richard, who was lying on the ground, laughed non-stop.

The shrill laughter was like a sharp blade piercing through the dark clouds, and it seemed out of place in the drizzle.

The man in black looked at Richard lying on the ground and did not speak for a long time.

After a long time, Richard's laughter gradually subsided and his expression became a little depressed.

"Mr. Mysterious Man, you have asked all the questions you wanted to ask. I also have three questions that I hope you can answer for me."

Richard opened his mouth slowly and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"It depends on my mood. I may not answer." The man in black stood next to Richard with a cold tone.

Richard nodded, not expecting the man in black to make a promise, and then asked word by word:

"Which path do you think is right, pure love or pleasure?"

The mysterious man in black was startled at first, then he posed lazily, yawned and said:

"I'm not very interested in justice and evil. Let's change the subject."

Richard had a dull expression on his face. He obviously had not expected the answer from the man in black, and he didn't know how to start talking for a moment.

"In that case, why are you asking about Lianna?"

"Is this your second question?" the man in black asked in a leisurely tone.

"...So be it."

"I am not too interested in justice and evil, but she is an important person to me, and I need to give her an explanation."

After a pause, the man in black let out a long sigh, then slowly lowered his head to look at Richard.

"People shouldn't be homeless, at least not because of my fault."
