Torture refers to the punishment of pinching the prisoner's fingers.

One of the government officials left the interrogation hall and brought a pair of cannons.

Looking at this dark and shiny thing, Li Miao couldn't help but feel his scalp numb. As the saying goes, ten fingers are connected to the heart. If this thing is put on the fingers and the ropes on both sides are pulled hard, wouldn't it be excruciating pain?

Zhou Tan directly ordered: "Put on the belt."

So, four government officials came to Li Miao's side. Two of them came behind Li Miao and put their hands on Li Miao's shoulders. The other two stood in front of Li Miao and tried to put a belt on Li Miao.

sub.

Li Miao was about to struggle, but there were so many people on the other side that he was eventually forced into a trap.

"Master Shangshu, if the student refuses to accept it, you are going to beat him up!" Li Miao protested loudly towards Zhou Tan.

Zhou Tan was unmoved, waved his hand and ordered: "Execution!"

Two people stood on both sides of the rope, holding the rope in their hands and trying to push it out. When Li Miao gritted her teeth and endured the severe pain, a voice rang in the interrogation hall in time.

"Stop!"

Li Miao couldn't help but startled, and looked towards the direction of the voice. Who else could it be if it wasn't Zhe Xinyi?

"Huh..."

Li Miao breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know why this person suddenly appeared here, since she appeared here, she should be fine this time, right? At least, she wouldn't have to suffer inhuman torture...

I saw Zhe Xinyi, wearing a battle robe, striding into the interrogation hall. She looked quite majestic and like a woman!

"Master Zhou, Master Jiao, Master Sima."

Zhe Xinyi did not look at Li Miao immediately, but first saluted Zhou Tan and the others.

"General Zhe."

The three of them did not dare to make excuses. Even Zhou Tan, who was the Minister of Punishment, quickly returned the gift.

Zhe Xinyi took the lead and said: "Master Zhou, I wonder what kind of crime the accountant in my house did to deserve this kind of punishment?"

Since everything has been ordered, as the Minister of Punishment, there is no reason to back down.

I saw Detective Zhou take a breath and said: "Li Sanshui committed three murders, so this officer will torture him."

"Oh? Is this really happening?"

Zhe Xinyi showed a slightly surprised look and asked: "Master Zhou, I wonder if there is any evidence?"

Hearing this, Zhou Tan remained silent and became silent.

The corners of Zhe Xinyi's mouth curved slightly and she said: "There is no evidence? Do you mean that you have to beat him into submission? After all, Li Sanshui has the reputation of our Dahua Juren. If this is exposed outside, in front of His Majesty...

."

Sima Zhong on the side couldn't help but interjected: "General Zhe, although there is no evidence directly pointing out that Li Sanshui is the murderer, there are many clues that show that the murderer is Li Sanshui!"

Zhe Xinyi said: "Without evidence, there is no absolute statement."

Sima Zhong was about to say something, but Zhou Tan reached out to stop him and said: "General Zhe, although there is indeed no evidence to prove it, Li Sanshui has enough motives and there are many suspicious behaviors in his behavior.

The coincidence and coincidence means that he is a suspect. As a suspect, our Criminal Department has the right to keep Li Sanshui in the Criminal Department until the situation is found out."

He understood that Zhe Xinyi was here, and it was obvious that he could not use severe punishment today, but he could completely keep Li Sanshui in the punishment department, and then try to get rid of him.

Zhe Xinyi naturally understood his plan and said: "Actually... I have been outside for some time. It's just not convenient to come in. I heard something outside. I probably know Zhou.

What is the motive you are talking about, sir? But this motive is obviously untenable, for the reason Li Sanshui himself said before."

"He lost his memory. I don't know why he lost his memory. He can't remember past events, or even his own name. This general can testify to this, because it was this general who brought him back to Zhefu from the suburbs that day.

of..."

......

After watching Zhe Xinyi take away Li Miao, Zhou Tan called the government servants who were guarding outside with a sullen face. He couldn't suppress his anger and asked: "Why didn't you come in and inform General Zhe when he was outside?"

The officials lowered their heads, but finally one of them stood up through gritted teeth and said weakly to Zhou Tan: "Master Shangshu, I originally wanted to come in and inform you, but General Zhe said that you, Master Shangshu,

The case inside is at a critical moment, don’t go in and disturb..."

"Humph!"

Zhou Tan snorted, knowing that these government officials could not be entirely blamed, so he ordered: "Whenever you encounter a similar situation in the future, you must send someone in first to report it."

"Yes! Sir!"

The government officials quickly handed over their hands.

……

At the same time, on the other side, after leaving the Criminal Department, Li Miao thanked Zhe Xinyi heavily: "Thank you, Miss Zhe!"

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Zhe Xinyi waved her hand and said: "You are also a member of our Zhe family, so I have the responsibility to protect you. But..."

Speaking of this, those beautiful eyes looked at Li Miao steadily: "Did you kill Sima An?"

Li Miao said calmly: "Miss Zhe, you are joking. How could I have killed Sima An?"

"You didn't kill Sima An, but what about Zhao Ran and Han Wu?"

Zhe Xinyi's eyes seem to reach straight into the depths of people's hearts.

Li Miao's heart skipped a beat. She didn't know if she was testing or if she knew something.

Just when she was about to say something, Zhe Xinyi waved her hand again and said: "That's all, Sima An usually relies on his father's power to do evil and bully men and women, and has done many unethical things.

Then Zhao Ran and Han Wu are also working for the tiger. If these three people die, they will die, which is a good thing for the people."

After saying that, Zhe Xinyi withdrew her gaze and started walking again.

Li Miao was stunned for a moment and then followed.

At this moment, his thoughts were more or less different from before he came.

Before coming, he thought that with his reputation as a candidate, his rhetoric, and the lack of evidence, he could walk out of the Ministry of Justice unharmed. However, the reality slapped him hard in the face.

If Zhe Xinyi had not appeared in time today, he would definitely not have been able to leave the Criminal Department.

Same words, different results, the biggest difference between myself and Zhe Xinyi is nothing more than the word "power".

If he had Zhe Xinyi's power in this empire today, no, just half of it would be enough. The Ministry of Punishment would not dare to torture him. What's more, they would not dare to bring him to the Ministry of Punishment rashly without sufficient evidence.

If the main reason why Li Miao wanted to participate in this year's examination was because of the promise he made to his predecessor Li Sanshui, now besides that, he also has a little more 'utilitarian' heart.
