As Tetodav subconsciously pursed his lips, he discovered with some uneasiness that the water that Shiiki Ruri splashed on him seemed to be not ordinary water, but had a strong strange smell.
Moreover, this strange smell… was very similar to the stench he “tasted” when he just woke up.
Suddenly, an ominous premonition emerged in Tetodav's mind. He did not expect that Shiiki Ruri would use such despicable means to deal with him.
But what if I guessed it?
Tetodaf told himself not to react at all. As the head of the Teruya Ryukaku sect, he knew better than anyone that the purpose of Shiiki Ruri doing all this was to break his heart, and then calmly obtain the information she really wanted.
"Master Liutang...if you have anything you want to ask, you can ask directly." Tetodaf insisted, and he continued to repeat his words in a voice without any emotion.
Shiiki Ruri widened her eyes slightly and then smiled.
"As expected of you, meow, the Grand Master... Even when piss and feces were splashed all over you, you remained unmoved. I really admire you, meow."
As Shiiki Ruri spoke, she clapped her hands. Seeing this girl's proud and arrogant look, a fire ignited in Tetodaf's heart, but he still suppressed his emotions calmly.
Tetodav knew very well that Shiiki Ruri was just "performing". The reason why this girl was reluctant to ask questions was that Tetodav was still remaining calm and composed, and it was extremely difficult to interrogate information from a calm and composed prisoner.
All members of the Teruya Ryuque organization who have received interrogation training know that the basic premise of interrogation is to "destroy the relationship of equality." Only when the person being interrogated has a mental breakdown and regards the interrogator as a god who controls his life and death, can the real interrogation begin.
Tetodav now wants to let Shiiki Ruri know that Teruya Ryuque's interrogation method will not work on him as the head hall master.
·
Tetodaf first spat on the ground, then began to fight back against Shiiki Ruri.
"Thank you for your hard work, Liutang Hall Master. Even with both legs broken, you still have to collect such a large bucket of urine. Did you fall into the cesspool yourself?"
Shiiki Ruri just smiled slightly after hearing this, and then told Tetodaf that what she had just seen was not her own urine, but a mixture of feces and urine directly fished out from the pit.
Then Shiiki Ruri said that she was very curious about the limit of the head master's tolerance. There were more than ten buckets of filth in this room, which allowed the head master to taste as much as he wanted.
Hearing this, Tetodav's heart trembled a little. He remembered again that the Shiiki Ruri in front of him was no longer the ignorant little girl. This cat-man girl was a ruthless character who almost killed him instantly just now!
When he thought about the more inhumane methods waiting for him, Tetodav's originally unwavering heart was greatly shaken.
He immediately began to reflect on himself, thinking that the paralyzing potion must be too strong, causing his brain to become numb and not work properly.
Facing such a top interrogation expert, pretending to be rock solid is definitely not a good idea. The real way out to avoid abusing yourself is to symbolically persist for a while and then quickly "admit defeat".
So, Tetodav continued to be stubborn and said that he didn't care what means Shiiki Ruri used. The only thing he wanted to warn Shiiki Ruri was to think carefully and not be used by the enemy.
"Xiao Liuli, believe me. I've never done anything that would make you want to kill me. If you think I'm wrong, then tell me your motive for killing me. And if you were coerced by the enemy, doesn't our organization have a method of encrypted communication? In short, it's not too late to regret now. Don't do anything irreparable. Do you understand?"
Now, the only thing Tetodav has to hold on to is his "basic personality card". Only if his "upright personality" is not overturned, he will have a chance to turn defeat into victory from the current desperate situation.
After Tetodav finished speaking, a hint of hesitation flashed across Shiiki Ruri's face. Tetodav was secretly delighted to see this, as he felt that he had not really been forced into a desperate situation.
However, Tetoduff soon realized that his joy was premature.
Although Shiiki Ruri was hesitant, the "service" she provided to Totodaf was strictly in accordance with the tutorial organized by Teruya Ryujaku. Not only did she keep everything in mind, she also added her own twists.
·
"It seems that you still don't intend to talk properly, Tetodaf..."
As Shiiki Ruri said this, she picked up another bucket of filth at hand and poured it all over Tetodaf with precision.
The stench this time was even worse than the last time.
Tetodav was unable to move his whole body and was forced to feel these filth, suffering both physically and mentally.
Then, without waiting for Tetodav to speak again, Shiiki Ruri gave Tetodav a grand slam one after another, almost causing his spirit to collapse.
"What do you want to ask me? Just ask it!!!"
Under extremely high-pressure mental state, Tetodav finally could not keep calm and shouted at Shiiki Ruri.
After hearing this, Shiiki Ruri smiled, then walked to the wall with two simple crutches, picked up a wooden spear leaning against the wall, and put the sharp tip of the spear against Tetodaf's chest.
"Don't worry, meow. Before I ask you, I have a few more things to tell you, meow..."
Plain words,
A half-smile expression,
There was also a gun tip that had cut through the skin and was dripping blood...
It was at this moment that Tetodav understood for the first time what a chilling smile meant.
Even though Shiiki Ruri hadn't done anything substantial to cause harm, Tetodaf was already scared to death.
This cat-person girl accurately grasped the essence of the concept of "fear":
What people fear most is often not the disasters that have already happened, but the disasters that are about to happen but have not yet happened.
9.278 - The Loser of Will
Looking at the tip of the gun against his chest, Tetodav wanted to retreat, but he couldn't move even a finger.
He didn't know what Shiiki Ruri was going to do next, but he knew that what was waiting for him would be a cruel torture.
Uncontrollably, Tetodav's heartbeat began to accelerate, and his brain seemed to be out of control, constantly imagining how Shiiki Ruri would torture him.
All the means he had used against his enemies in the past were now only the stuff of his imagination;
All the pain he inflicted on his enemies now boomeranged back at him.
The more Tetodav thought about it, the more frightened he became. Even though Shiiki Ruri hadn't done anything yet, the head hall master of Teruya Ryujaku was already sweating profusely.
At this point, Tetodav actually began to hope that Shiiki Ruri could give him a quick death... However, this cowardly thought was quickly rejected by the other self in his heart.
——(Forget this cowardly idea, Tetodaf! Have you forgotten all the suffering you’ve endured over the past few decades?!)
——(It’s just some physical pain. As long as you’re still alive, what’s there to be afraid of?!)
——(Cheer up! You useless thing! Just get through the pain, and then you can torture this little bitch however you want, right?!)
——(And if there was a chance, wouldn't it be possible to turn defeat into victory if we just carried out "that plan" earlier?!)
The words from his heart were like a shot of cardiac stimulant, constantly hitting Tetodav's heart, making him gradually forget his fear and calm down again.
He told himself firmly that Shiiki Ruri would not kill him for the time being, and during the torture that followed, he must use the weapon of "language" to turn defeat into victory!
"It seems... you're ready, meow."
Shiiki Ruri seemed to notice the change in Tetodaf's expression, and began to move the spear with a smile, then hovered it on Tetodaf's wrist.
"Master, you just cut my hamstrings. I'm learning from you and cutting yours too. Meow, did you notice?"
After hearing what Shiiki Ruri said, Tetodaf swallowed back the sophistry that was about to come out of his mouth.
Due to the effect of the paralyzing potion, he was unable to accurately judge the condition of his body. As for the situation where his limbs could not move, Tetodav was hoping for a lucky break.
He hoped that there was nothing wrong with his hand itself and that he would be able to regain his mobility as soon as the effect of the paralyzing potion wore off. However, Shiiki Ruri's words completely extinguished his hope and dealt a heavy blow to him.
Without waiting for Tetodaf to answer, Shiiki Ruri suddenly pierced Tetodaf's wrist with a spear.
This sudden bloody scene made Tetodav scream subconsciously, but after a few seconds of screaming, his screams stopped amid Shiiki Ruri's giggling laughter.
It doesn't hurt, not at all. Tetodav looked at the bloody wound on his wrist in disbelief. The bones were clearly exposed, but he didn't feel anything.
Is this due to the effect of the paralysis potion? Or is it that after the tendons were cut, there was no feeling?
Tetodav had never considered these issues when he had executed others before, but now it was his turn to experience it himself.
Without feeling any pain, Tetodav watched helplessly as Shiiki Ruri pierced his left and right wrists, and then his left and right ankles.
The girl explained her stabbing technique to Tetodaf in a vivid and moving manner, telling Tetodaf how to cut so as to avoid bones and prevent the spear tip from breaking.
Such a meticulous introduction is undoubtedly deliberate mental torture.
Faced with Shiiki Ruri's insane behavior, Tetodaf's momentum, which he had just finally mustered up, was extinguished unknowingly.
He had originally planned to use the same rhetoric he had just used to shake Shiiki Ruri, causing her to fall into self-doubt and reveal her flaws. But now, watching Shiiki Ruri cut her body open bit by bit, watching her blood gather more and more on the ground, Tetodav had already done his best to stay calm.
"How's it going, meow? Are you surprised? I didn't know the human body could be so interesting, meow."
Shiiki Ruri smiled and pierced Tetodav's fingers into his chest one by one, forming a heart shape with all ten fingers.
By this time, the only part of Tetodav's body that was still intact was his head.
And his body no longer looked like a human body.
"...You win, Shiiki Ruri, I surrender."
Tetodav felt that it was truly a miracle that he survived being tortured like this.
This guy Shiiki Ruri was consciously controlling his injuries so that he could continue to be tortured without dying too soon.
If he continued to torture himself in this way, Tetodav had no confidence that he would not be driven crazy, so before he went crazy, he chose to "accept his fate" and bet all his hopes on the final "plan".
And this was his last moment of sanity.
·
"Oh? You gave up, meow? We're not competing, why would you give up, meow?"
Shiiki Ruri looked at Tetodaf with a smile. The bloody dagger in her hand formed a sharp contrast with her innocent face.
"Of course we are competing. The competition is about whether I can withstand your torture and not reveal the 'truth'."
As Tetodav spoke, he stared at the movements of Shiiki Ruri's hands. If he had not admitted defeat just now, the dagger would probably be skinning him now.
Then, taking advantage of the moment when Shiiki Ruri stopped moving, Tetodav quickly continued speaking, fearing that Shiiki Ruri would not be able to stop and continue to abuse her.
"Shiiki Ruri, I know what you want to ask. Since you deliberately don't ask, then I will say it myself..." Having said this, Tetodaf paused. He knew that once the next words were spoken, there would be no turning back.
Then, Tetodav took a deep breath and finally said those words.
"Your master, the previous Liutang master, Magai, was murdered by me. You came to kill me today to avenge her. Am I right...?"
·
After Tetodav said this, time in the entire warehouse seemed to stand still.
Shiiki Ruri stared at Tetodav intently, as if she had never seen this person before, and wanted to engrave this person in her eyes at a glance.
After an unknown amount of time, she mechanically stood up straight like a wooden figure, then tilted her head and said to Tetodaf, "It turned out to be you who killed her, Tetodaf... Why did you do this to Master, who is such a good person?"
9.279 - Crocodile Tears
--(really?)
When Tetodav heard Shiiki Ruri say these two words, he immediately realized that his previous speculation was correct.
Shiiki Ruri went to such great lengths to organize this interrogation because she wasn't sure if Tetoduff was responsible for the murder of Magpie-Winged Man Magae.
...Otherwise, with the cruelty with which this girl tortured Tetodaf just now, Tetodaf would have died eight hundred times already.
From this point of view alone, it is actually quite a pity for Tetodav.
As long as he can hold on and keep arguing that he is innocent, maybe he can really make Shiiki Ruri's heart waver and change her mind.
However, this is all hindsight. Until he confessed to Shiiki Ruri, all of Tetodave's thoughts were just guesses. Moreover, Shiiki Ruri's outrageous interrogation intensity was not something Tetodave's will to resist could withstand.
As the head hall master who holds a high position and has been away from the front line for too long, his willpower may not be as strong as that of an ordinary Zhaoye Liuque member.
Back to the topic, Tetodav did not regret his decision just now. He knew better than anyone what the consequences would be after confessing.
The reason why he deliberately pushed himself to death was to risk his life and try to see if he could win the last chance of turning defeat into victory.
·
"Mag'ai is indeed a good person, but we in Teruya Ryuque don't need someone with such a strong sense of justice as her."
After revealing the truth, Tetodav's tense nerves relaxed a little.
Now, at least Shiiki Ruri will not continue to torture him.
"I planned to eliminate Magai in order to clear the obstacles to the organization's progress. Little Liuli, you haven't noticed, but since Magai's death, our Zhaoye Liuque's ranking in the area of activity has skyrocketed. In just a few years, we've firmly held the top spot."
While Shiiki Ruri was shocked by the facts, Tetodav continued to state the truth about the past. However, what he said was selective. These so-called "truths" were actually the prelude to Tetodav's execution of the "final plan".
"Just for this reason... you killed Master?! Do you think you can be worthy of Master Magee, who risked his life for the organization?!"
After coming to his senses, Shiiki Ruri swung his spear and stabbed it into Tetodaf's body without mercy!
She had originally aimed at the center of Tetodaf's chest, but after making the move, she forcibly changed the trajectory and stabbed Tetodaf in the shoulder.
Tetodav noticed Shiiki Ruri's tiny movements and he knew what Shiiki Ruri meant. It was not that this girl didn't want to kill him, but that she didn't want to kill him so soon.
This is exactly what Tetodav wants.
