How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 7

[7.Chapter 7 Interrogation]

“Name.”

Lu Gan moved a matzha, sat in front of Dongfang Hong, and asked coldly.

“Dong…Dongfanghong.”

Dongfanghong, who was tied into a ‘big’ character, swallowed hard and replied in a trembling voice.

He had also heard about Lu Qian, and knew that although this new great hunter was young, he was ruthless and killed without blinking an eye. Very few people who fell into his hands would survive long enough to be executed.

Therefore, he is completely scared now.

“Place of origin. Who else is in the family?”

Lu Qian asked again.

“People from Luosang County, Qingyang County, no relatives or friends.”

Dongfang Hong had a well-behaved look on his face, answering whatever he asked.

“Tell me all the major thefts you committed, no matter how big or small, and where your skills came from. If there is one thing that doesn’t match up, I’ll ask you to stay in the water prison for one night. Come on over. If you continue to suffer in prison and you can’t survive it, I will burn more silver candles for you next year.” After

Lu Gan finished speaking, he nodded to Mr. Xing next to him.

Xing Laodao chuckled, took out a pen and paper from his oil-stained sleeves, dipped it in saliva, and waited to take notes.

In such a cold weather, a seriously injured person should live in a water prison?

That is simply going to die!

Dongfang Hong still wanted to live, so he no longer hesitated and began to recall quickly: “Sir, no! Let me tell you this! I learned from a small sect, the Star Stealing Sect, and started stealing at the age of nine…”

This is what he said. Half an hour.

From petty theft when he was a child, to climbing over walls after becoming a teacher, specializing in stealing valuable antiques and elixirs, Yang SaSa has committed a total of 324 crimes.

He kept talking until Dongfang Hong’s mouth was dry.

At this time, Sun Hei held a lantern and led Shen Zishuang, Zhou Eleven, Twelve, and Thirteen in.

“Sir, my subordinates have already taken them to familiarize themselves with the Zhenfu Division.” Sun Hei stepped forward and bowed his hands.

“Yes.”

Lu Gan nodded and said casually: “Old man Xing, show them your transcript.”

“Okay!” Old man Xing smiled and handed the transcript to Shen Zishuang, “My surname is Xing, and I am from Shashui County. The deputy director of the Zhenfu Department, the prison chief, and the master of prison interrogation.

“Thank you very much.” Shen Zishuang nodded lightly, took the transcript, and browsed it quickly.

Then, he handed it to Zhou Eleven beside him.

After a while, the four of them read the transcript and returned it to Xing Laodao.

“Did you find any problems with the transcript?” Lu Gan asked expressionlessly.

“Sir, I’ve discovered it!”

Zhou Eleven and the others bowed in unison.

Shen Zishuang on the side was stunned for a moment, her eyebrows furrowed. This record is very detailed. Are there any questions?

“Zhou Shiyi, tell me.”

Lu Gan pointed at Zhou Shiyi, who was tall and dark.

“Sir, this record seems to be very detailed, but after looking at it, there is not a single murder case. It is indeed inappropriate! According to the Daxuan Law, a thief will be imprisoned for ten years at most, and if there is a murder case, it will be at least thirty years. Years in prison, or execution in the later years. My subordinates feel that this Dongfang Hong is deliberately concealing his crimes and exaggerating!”

Zhou Shiyi replied forcefully.

“Very good! Lao Hei, I will bring it to you on Monday November.” Lu Gan nodded with satisfaction.

“Yes!”

Sun Hei was also quite satisfied with Zhou Shiyi, probably because he had the same dark face.

“Unjustly accused! Sir!”

At this time, a shrill cry of injustice came, and Dongfang Hong looked aggrieved: “The little one is timid by nature, and he always only steals but never kills. As the sky testifies, the little one definitely did not kill anyone. There is no trace of it. Conceal it.”

“Are you timid by nature? You should have learned some interrogation techniques in Qianlong Camp on Wednesday. Now, it’s time for you to show off. Don’t worry, I will take care of you. Take it.”

Lu Qian turned his head and smiled coldly.

“Yes, sir!” Upon hearing this, Zhou Twelve’s eyes lit up.

“Sir, Twelve and I have developed some new gadgets that are not available in Qianlong Camp. I wonder if you can give it a try?” Zhou Shisan asked.

“What new method?”

Lu Gan raised his eyebrows and asked with interest.

“Just cut the hair into pieces, mix it with mud and water and pour it into the prisoner’s stomach. Within half an hour, the prisoner will definitely suffer from diarrhea and his life will be worse than death.”

Zhou Shisan’s eyes flashed with an impatient light.

“Wow! These two boys are creative! I like them! Lao Lu, why don’t you give them to me?” When Old Xing heard this, he was inexplicably happy.

Lu Gan raised his head when he heard the sound, and happened to see Xing Laodao winking at him.

This old guy was disrespectful and deliberately left the beauty Shen Zishuang to him.

If a normal person would really accept this flattery, Shen Zishuang doesn’t have any advantages other than being pretty and having slender legs.

My brain is not very good either.

Finally, Lu Qian touched the Tongqiao Sword Pill in his arms, frowned, and nodded: “Okay, twelve, thirteen, you can follow Xing Lao Dao from now on.”

“Yes!”

Tuesday 12th, Sunday 13th Nodding solemnly, he turned around and walked towards Dongfang Hong.

“Sir! I did it, I did it! I have committed a murder!” Dongfang Hong looked at it, shouted quickly, and told the two murders he had committed.

“No more?”

Lu Qian’s expression turned cold, and he was filled with evil aura.

“No more!”

Dongfang Hong shook his head, as scared as a quail.

“There is no fraud in this case?”

Lu Gan asked coldly.

“No…no.”

Dongfang Hong’s tone was a little weak.

“Hmph! You still dare to quibble? Three years ago, on July 23rd and July 26th, you committed consecutive crimes in Lingxiang County and Shilu County. However, Lingxiang County is in the upper left corner of Qingyang County. Shilu County is in the lower right corner. How could you go across the entire Qingyang County to commit a crime in three days? How could you still find Mo Linma? Your mother is not even a good editor! Did he throw away the placenta when he gave birth to you?”

Lu Gan grabbed the transcript and threw it on Dongfang Hong’s face.

Suddenly, Dongfang Hong’s face turned green and red, then white, as if he had opened a dyeing workshop.

On the side, Lao Xing and Lao Hei were not surprised.

Only Shen Zishuang was shocked on Zhou Eleven, Zhou Twelve, and Zhou Thirteen. It was the first time she heard such a fresh and refined way of cursing.

At the same time, I was filled with admiration in my heart.

Mr. Lu was able to discover this small flaw. He was so meticulous and admirable.

“Also! You are so ugly that even the fireworks woman will feel sick when she sees you. You must have no wives or concubines. Warriors are full of blood and are burned by the sun every day. How can you still hold back the animal nature in your heart and not steal incense and jade? Really? You are a saint who has come to this world! Twelve and thirteen, throw him into the water prison to see if he is still dishonest!”

Lu Gan said coldly.

Warriors use force to violate the prohibition, and they always rape, kill and commit adultery.

Dongfang Hong had so many crimes that Lu Gancai didn’t believe that he had never insulted an innocent woman.

As soon as these words came out, Shen Zishuang and others felt even more respectful.

“Yes!”

Zhou Twelve and Zhou Thirteen accepted the order and were about to step forward.

Dongfang Hong looked at it and shouted quickly: “Sir! Sir! This is really an injustice to me! I really did not commit the shameless thing of stealing love, stealing jade, and insulting women! I have evidence! I really didn’t lie this time!”

“Huh! He’s full of sophistry! Throw it away!”

Lu Gan waved his hand, completely unconvinced.

“Sir, I am a eunuch! When I entered the Star Stealing Sect, I castrated myself in order to practice the internal skills of a boy! Otherwise, my qualifications would not have been able to reach the peak of the physical realm! My lord, this is true! It is absolutely true. That’s right! If you don’t believe it, take off my pants!”

Dongfang Hong screamed like a slaughtering pig, and the silver needles on his head shook violently.

“…”

Everyone’s pupils shrank and they were shocked.

“Shen Zishuang, come here, take off his pants.” Then, Lu Gan said coldly.

“Yes!”

When Shen Zishuang heard this, her face turned slightly red with anger, and she bit her lip, but she did not dare to disobey her order, so she had to take a few steps forward, and the sword in her hand suddenly came out of her body, and a cold light flashed across it.

Then the sword was sheathed, and Shen Zishuang turned around, not wanting to stain her eyes.

“It turns out that he is really a dead eunuch. He is so cruel!” At this time, Lao Dao Xing’s voice sounded in surprise.

The world is so big that there are many warriors who come from the palace to practice magical arts.

I didn’t expect to see one in person today.

“Ahem… Sir, can you help me put on my pants? It’s a bit cold.” Dongfang Hong looked at Zhou Eleven with a pitiful look.

Zhou Eleven turned to look at Lu Qian.

Lu Qian nodded, then fell into deep thought and remained silent.

After a while, he waved his hand: “The time has come! Let’s eat first!”

“Okay!”

Lao Hei responded, turned around and walked out of the dungeon with the lantern in hand.

After a while, he led two detectives and walked in carrying several food boxes and several tables and chairs.

In front of Dongfang Hong and all the prisoners, a few people set up tables and chairs and prepared to eat.

Mr. Xing had already burned red charcoal in the execution platform next to him and warmed a pot of wine.

Suddenly, the aroma of wine and rice overflowed, making the eyes of the prisoners in the iron cage shine and their stomachs rumble.

Dongfang Hong even stretched his neck, looking as eager as a duck.

“Eat.”

Lu Gan ignored them and gave the order, and they picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
