Abstinence Pei, don't be too sweet when chasing your wife

Pei Luonan's private interrogation room was like a steel cage. In the enclosed space three floors underground, the cold white shadowless lights illuminated every corner clearly.

The walls were covered with special sound-absorbing material, and the ticking sound of the old-fashioned clock was infinitely amplified, striking at everyone's nerves in the silence.

The three members of the Night Owl Team - Scorpion, Spider, and Old Cat - were imprisoned in three bulletproof glass compartments. The compartments were filled with a damp and moldy smell, which mixed with the undried blood on their bodies, forming a disgusting odor.

The first person to be brought into the main interrogation room was Scorpion.

He was roughly pressed into a specially designed interrogation chair, and the high-strength carbon fiber restraints instantly tightened, firmly securing his wrists and ankles. These restraints had built-in pressure sensors that automatically applied a counterforce at the slightest struggle, while also releasing a mild electric current to stimulate his nerves.

Duxie glanced at the sophisticated instruments around him, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "Boss Pei, don't you find these old tricks boring?"

Pei Luonan slowly turned the pen, his eyes like a poisoned blade: "You should know that I have no patience. How much money did Wang Xinyi give you? How many people did she let you kill?"

Before he could finish his words, the interrogation chair suddenly vibrated, sending an electric current through the restraints and throughout Scorpion's body. This specially regulated current was specifically designed to stimulate the body's pain-sensing nerve endings without causing any substantial damage, a modern-day version of "lingchi."

The scorpion's body instantly straightened, its muscles twitched uncontrollably, and veins popped out on its forehead.

But he gritted his teeth, swallowed the scream back into his throat, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Is this all... you can do?" Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his cheeks and dripped onto the clothes on his chest, quickly leaving dark marks.

Pei Luonan watched coldly, adjusting the current intensity from time to time. The curve of the lie detector fluctuated violently with the spider's physiological reaction, but he was still unable to confirm the truth of his words.

"Venomous Scorpion, you're very patient." Pei Luonan turned off the power, picked up the tablet on the table, and called up a surveillance video. "This is the transaction footage of you at the West City Wharf three days ago. In the video, the woman who met with you should be Wang Xinyi's subordinate, right?" Venomous Scorpion glanced at the screen and suddenly burst into laughter. "Boss Pei, you don't think this fake video can fool me, do you? It doesn't even match the water level of the wharf. The editing is too crude!" His eyes were full of contempt. "If you want evidence, you have to work harder."

Pei Luonan's face darkened, and he signaled his assistant to start the second plan.

In an instant, a fine metal mesh rose around the interrogation chair, releasing a weak electromagnetic pulse.

This pulse specifically interferes with the human nervous system, causing severe dizziness and nausea.

The scorpion's smile froze on his face, his body began to tremble uncontrollably, his stomach churning, but he still forced himself to speak: "Pei... Pei Luonan, if you have the guts... kill me!"

Seeing that Scorpion was still resisting, Pei Luonan temporarily took him out of the interrogation room and brought Spider in instead.

When Spider was pushed into the interrogation room, he was still whistling leisurely, as if he was not there for interrogation but to attend a party.

"Spider, you should know that the few lives you have taken are enough for you to die ten times." Pei Luonan said coldly.

Spider leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs. "Boss Pei, my memory isn't very good. You need to be more specific. Besides, even if I did something, do you have any evidence?"

His eyes were full of provocation, as if saying "What can you do to me?"

Pei Luonan didn't say anything, just pressed a button.

The temperature in the interrogation room began to drop rapidly. In just a few minutes, it dropped to minus twenty degrees Celsius.

The biting cold seeped into his bones. Spider's lips quickly turned dark purple, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably. But he still gritted his teeth and refused to beg for mercy: "Pei... Pei Luonan, is this all you have...?"

"Don't worry, the best is yet to come."

Pei Luonan operated the console again, and a pungent gas slowly injected into the interrogation room.

This gas is not fatal, but it can cause a strong feeling of suffocation and hallucinations.

Spider's breathing became rapid, and all kinds of horrific visions began to appear before his eyes: countless distorted human faces pounced on him, poisonous snakes coiled around his limbs, and blades cut his skin into bloody wounds. But he bit his lips tightly until blood oozed out, and refused to utter a word.

The old cat was the last one brought in. Seeing his two companions being tortured beyond recognition, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

Pei Luonan used the same trick again and took out a fake video of "daughter in distress" in an attempt to break through Lao Mao's psychological defenses.

However, this time, Old Cat saw through the flaw: "Mr. Pei, do you think you can trick me by changing the scene to a kindergarten? The windows in my daughter's school are square, and the ones in your video are round!"

Pei Luonan's expression became increasingly ugly, and he decided to resort to the ultimate measure.

The staff implanted nanoprobes under the skin of three people. These probes can penetrate deep into the cerebral cortex and read deep memories.

The moment the instrument was turned on, the scorpion, spider, and old cat all let out shrill screams at the same time. The pain of having their brains turned over by someone far exceeded any physical torture.

The scorpion's eyes were bloodshot and it shook its head desperately, trying to get rid of the invasion of the probe.

The spider's muscles spasmed and twisted into strange shapes under the restraints.

The old cat burst into tears, not because of pain, but because of anger at Pei Luonan's methods.

"Pei...Luonan...don't even think about...success..."

The scorpion's voice was intermittent, blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were still stubborn.

The spider and the old cat were also holding on in severe pain, using their remaining willpower to resist having their memories read.

Their screams echoed in the interrogation room, and the wildly jumping curve of the polygraph witnessed this ultimate battle between will and flesh.

At this moment, a slight vibration sound suddenly came from the ventilation duct in the interrogation room.

Spider's pupils suddenly shrank, and he endured the severe pain and let out a strange laugh: "Pei Luonan, do you think you can rest assured by locking us up here? Sister Wang has already made a backup plan!"

Before he could finish his words, the fire sprinkler system on the ceiling suddenly started up, but what sprayed out was not water, but a special solution that could corrode the nanoprobes.

Pei Luonan's face changed drastically, and he immediately ordered the security personnel to check the system, but found that the electronic equipment on the entire third underground floor had begun to malfunction - at some point, the spider had implanted the virus into the control system of the interrogation room through the circuit interface of the interrogation chair.

The scorpion took the opportunity to break free from the restraints and dug out a microcapsule from the inside of its teeth.

This is the neurotoxin that Wang Xinyi prepared in advance. It can cause instant death with just a bite.

He put the capsule in his mouth with a smirk on his face: "Want me to speak? Maybe in my next life!"

The old cat also took out the capsule, and a determined light flashed in his eyes.

At the critical moment, Pei Luonan's personal bodyguard Ken broke in through the window and threw out a special anesthetic net to cover the poisonous scorpion.

At the same time, Pei Luonan pounced on the old cat himself, and the two wrestled fiercely on the ground.

The old cat used all his strength to bite the capsule, but Pei Luonan pressed his thumb hard against his jaw, preventing him from biting.

“You can’t escape!”

Pei Luonan's voice trembled with anger.

"Wang Xinyi won't come to save you. She's already prepared to let you be her scapegoat!"

This sentence made Lao Mao's movements pause slightly, and Pei Luonan took the opportunity to knock the capsule out of his hand.

Finally, with the assistance of security personnel, the three were subdued again.

But this sudden change made Pei Luonan realize that Wang Xinyi's plan was far more meticulous than he had imagined, and he would have to work harder if he wanted to completely conquer them.
