Chapter 1578 - 1576: Interrogation

The fat man's name is Zhou Laifu, and according to him, he runs a factory in Monkey Country. He's made quite a bit of money and wants to dabble in antiques.

Yang Chen expressed skepticism about this.

If it weren't for discovering his real name, Yang Chen wouldn't even believe the punctuation he uses.

In the interrogation room.

Zhou Laifu's face was lit by a glaring desk lamp, causing the fat man's face to glisten with oil, and sweat poured down like rain.

"Will you talk?" Yang Chen leaned back in his chair, asking casually.

Sweat trickled into Zhou Laifu's eyes, causing him to blink repeatedly from the irritation.

"I... I already told the truth! Even if I've done something wrong, you shouldn't be interrogating me, right? I demand to see my lawyer!" Zhou Laifu remained defiant.

Yang Chen sighed and said to Zhou Laifu, "It seems you haven't grasped the situation. You're crying only when you see the coffin, huh?"

After speaking, Yang Chen gestured with his hand.

Two men immediately stepped behind Zhou Laifu.

Zhou Laifu watched them fearfully, his eyes shining red under the light and filled with terror. "You, what are you going to do?"

The two men ignored Zhou Laifu, quietly wrapping bandages and staring coldly at him.

Once the bandages were secured, the men raised their fists and mercilessly punched Zhou Laifu.

Zhou Laifu, being quite fat, excretes more oil, making punches slide and lose power, causing him minimal pain.

But bandages change things. They prevent slipping, absorb water and oil, and each punch lands solidly on the body.

Thump thump thump thump!

Punches landed directly on flesh, each hitting the most painful spots on the human body.

These men were professional.

They beat Zhou Laifu, making him howl in agony without leaving visible injuries.

After a while, Zhou Laifu's cries weakened, and he began to swell.

After taking so many hits, even if no marks were visible, he was already swollen.

Yang Chen gestured to the two men to stop.

The two men immediately ceased and stepped back, standing at a short distance.

Yang Chen looked at the weakened, pained Zhou Laifu and smiled, "Have you remembered anything now?"

"You, you are using extralegal measures! Don't, don't let me get out, once I get out, I'll sue you!" Zhou Laifu still remained defiant.

Yang Chen snapped his fingers, smiled at the men, and said, "Still not cooperative? It's in your hands!"

The two men stepped forward immediately.

This time, they didn't punch Zhou Laifu again but replaced the bandages with knuckle dusters.

Seeing this, Zhou Laifu shivered in fear, "No! Please don't! Don't, those things can kill!"

No one listened to him; the fists were already aimed at him.

They didn't use much force, just the right amount to land on the previously beaten swollen areas.

Even though the punches weren't hard, they made Zhou Laifu howl in pain.

This is the art of beating someone.

Though not much force was used, hitting the already swollen area with the right force made him howl in pain, far more effective than haphazardly hitting him.

Their goal was to make Zhou Laifu feel sufficient pain.

After a while, when Zhou Laifu seemed to be about to faint, Yang Chen stopped them.

Zhou Laifu gasped for breath as if he had regained his life.

"Will you talk?" Yang Chen asked.

"I will! I'll talk!" Zhou Laifu's eyes were full of terror, no longer daring to challenge, and he agreed quickly.

Yang Chen smiled, "If you had done this earlier, there wouldn't have been so much suffering."

Zhou Laifu looked resentful, "I was just about to talk earlier, didn't I tell you to wait for a minute? Why didn't you stop!"

Yang Chen grinned, "Sorry, the process was already underway, my men have to get their satisfaction first! Don't worry, as long as you confess sincerely, nothing will happen."

Hearing this, Zhou Laifu gritted his teeth in hatred; he would never forget such pain!

After calming down for a while, Zhou Laifu took a deep breath and said to Yang Chen, "I'll confess everything!"

He truly felt he couldn't handle it anymore.

If things continued like this, he felt he might be beaten to death, so he could only confess.

"The reason for buying antiques is actually a cover; surely Liu Erdan has already told you. What I want are the parasites he brings over; someone offered a big price for me to get these, so I took the risk!"

Yang Chen coldly chuckled at these words.

Would he believe such childish deception?

Immediately, Yang Chen gestured to the two men.

The two men approached immediately.

Seeing them, Zhou Laifu looked terrified, "What do you want to do?"

He saw the two men holding needles.

Zhou Laifu panicked and hurriedly shouted, "Stop! Quickly stop, I've already confessed, right? Stop! Quickly stop!"

No one paid him any attention.

The two men held the needles, repeatedly stabbing Zhou Laifu's body.

The intense stabbing pain nearly drove Zhou Laifu mad.

Because they didn't quickly jab but slowly, gently pierced him. They were very careful and skillful, always stabbing the most painful places and avoiding blood vessels and such.

After the ordeal, Zhou Laifu's voice was gone.

Weakly, he said to Yang Chen, "Why, didn't I already confess?"

Due to his pain, Zhou Laifu's body trembled.

Yang Chen smiled, "Because I don't like listening to lies! If it's all such blatant deceits, I'd rather have nothing and directly kill you."

"Then kill me! Give me a quick death!" Zhou Laifu now began seeking death.

Better to die than endure such torture.

Yang Chen laughed, "Dying isn't easy; they've prepared eighteen layered torture methods for you. If you want to try them first, go ahead and see if you can endure the seventh layer!"

Hearing this, Zhou Laifu shivered with fright, immediately stating, "I'll talk! I'll confess everything!"

"Though I run a factory here, I'm actually a worker; there's a boss who invested in me, saying I should work, and whenever they need me, they'll assign me!" Zhou Laifu shouted, "This time they asked me to get these parasites, and I can't go domestic so I could only find Liu Erdan, getting these things through him."

Yang Chen listened and slowly nodded, "Now that's more like human speech! So who's behind it all?"

Zhou Laifu shook his head, "I haven't been to their headquarters, let alone met the masterminds; I'm just simply following orders."

Yang Chen silently contemplated.
