Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

It was clear that Gandhi also believed he was certain he would not die.

This kind of person just needs to be taught a lesson.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Ce heard Gandhi repeating the same things over and over again.

He didn't say anything on his own initiative.

Xiao Ce waited for the interrogators to take turns interrogating Gandhi.

Gandhi didn't say anything useful either.

At this moment, Xiao Ce stood up and left immediately.

After seeing this, the others naturally followed without saying a word.

They caught up with Xiao Ce.

Thomson was the first to speak to Xiao Ce: "Mr. Ce, aren't you going to continue?"

Xiao Ce said to Thomson, "Clearly, this guy is a rock in a latrine—stubborn and unyielding. There's no point in following him... Let's call it a day. Take him back for treatment, and he can come back tomorrow..."

Thomson nodded upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, then said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, hasn't he already admitted to poisoning me? Shouldn't we just conduct a guided questioning..."

Seeing Thomson's reaction, Xiao Ce gave a wry smile and said, "Mr. Thomson, you actually believe him? He's clearly trying to fool us. His defenses haven't been broken yet; his answers are all carefully crafted to deceive you..."

"At that time, we'll still need to figure out whether the stories he told were true or false..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Thomson nodded and said:

"So, Mr. Ce, you mean that after breaking down his mental defenses, you can ask him questions and save yourself the trouble..."

Xiao Ce nodded, then said to Thomson, "Not bad..."

Thomson now understood perfectly.

Thomson said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, how do we determine if his psychological defenses have collapsed?"

"That's what it was like to look into his eyes—they were filled with fear, and then, upon seeing you, he repeated a series of things in terror..."

Thomson followed Xiao Ce's words and then said nothing more.

He nodded directly and replied, "Mr. Ce, I will do as you say..."

After Xiao Ce finished speaking, he had no intention of continuing.

Just left.

When Xiao Ce left, Luna quickly followed.

Little Luna followed Xiao Ce and asked, "Mr. Ce, may I ask you something?"

Xiao Ce saw Luna's expression, smiled, and then said, "Of course, no problem... Please feel free to ask me anything..."

Little Luna grinned at Xiao Ce and said, "Mr. Ce, he's already admitted to poisoning us. Why don't we follow the trail and ask him more questions? Besides, judging from your expression, you don't believe him at all."

Xiao Ce smiled when he saw Luna's question, and then said, "You're right, I really don't believe it... Think about it, these things can't be simply poisoned. If they were poisoned, someone would surely be able to detect it. Even if no one notices, your bodies would detect it. You've all been eating them for a while now, haven't you? Aren't you all in good health...?"

Little Luna nodded.

Xiao Ce said, "Then this bread isn't that simple. The reason I didn't believe them is even simpler: it's because of the way they're acting. It's obvious they're using this as their trump card. Once we believe them and engage in conversation, the initiative will shift from us to them."

"Besides, whatever he says then will put us at a disadvantage... So, I'm simply ignoring him... As for whether it's true or false, I can't judge that right now. However, I do know that I'll be defeated, and then I'll have the results when I ask him again..."

Little Luna said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, is there another reason? Don't you think he has no more use? Also, aren't you afraid he won't be able to handle it and will die?"

After hearing Luna's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "I'm really not worried about that. First of all, I don't think he's a very important pawn. The only valuable information he possesses, I suspect, is the secret of those breads..."

"As for his suicide attempt? Look at him, enduring such torture, and he didn't die... that means he definitely won't die..."

"Furthermore, the reason I think he's worthless is that we've kept him locked up, but there's been no news from the outside, and no one has come to rescue him... Isn't he just a useless pawn? The fact that no one seems worried about him is enough to show that he's useless..."

Hearing what Xiao Ce said, Luna nodded, and then said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, then shouldn't we stop wasting our time on him?"

Xiao Ce shook his head: "Not really. He does have value; it's just to give the people here in charge of interrogation some practice... practice makes perfect..."

Little Luna nodded repeatedly at this point.

As the two were talking, Xiao Ce asked Luna, "Is there any other problem?"

Little Luna shook her head.

Meanwhile, Gandhi, who had been tortured half to death by those in charge of the interrogation, was taken back to his cell.

He began to scream in agony: "What are you going to do... what are you going to do..."

However, after he was taken to the cell like a dead dog, no one paid any attention to him.

No matter how he shouted, no one answered him...

Gandhi was covered in wounds and could not move an inch.

He lay prone in the cell, screaming, "Help! If you kill me... everyone in Lingas will die..."

"Help! If you kill me... everyone in the entire city of Lingas will die..."

"Help! If you kill me... everyone in the entire city of Lingas will die..."

...

At this moment, Thomson and his men had not gone far from the cell door.

Instead, they heard Gandhi repeating the same phrase from the cell doorway.

The interrogator standing nearby asked Thomson, "Mr. Thomson, what do we do next?"

Thomson said to the interrogator, "That's enough for today. Get a doctor to treat him later; the others want him dead..."

After hearing Thomson's words, the interrogator nodded: "Yes, sir. Should we give them some guidance?"

Thomson shook his head at the interrogator and said, "No need. Mr. Ce means you should take turns using your own methods. He also said he taught you many techniques, right?"

Upon hearing Thomson's words, the interrogator smiled broadly and said, "That's right, Mr. Ce has indeed taught us many methods and techniques... This is Mr. Ce's intention, isn't it? We understand..."

Thomson didn't waste any words and nodded.

"From now on, you just need to continue as before and ignore him..."

Thomson repeated what Xiao Ce had told him.

After listening to Thomson's words, the interrogators nodded: "We understand, Mr. Thomson. So, do you think the bread he mentioned was poisoned?"

After hearing the interrogator's question, Thomson shook his head: "I didn't think it was poisonous... Actually, we tried eating these breads before we ate them... We also had a professional examine them, and I didn't think there was anything wrong with them..."

After hearing Thomson's words, the interrogator nodded: "We discussed it, and actually, we're more inclined to think they're trying to bluff me..."

Thomson nodded: "Alright, Mr. Ce told me before he left that this person isn't that important, so just do whatever you want... don't put too much pressure on yourselves..."

After hearing Thomson's words, the interrogators nodded repeatedly.

Thomson then added, "Of course, we can't take Mr. Ce's words too seriously... We still need to give it our all..."

After hearing Thomson's words, the interrogator nodded repeatedly, then said awkwardly, "Of course, we will do our best... however, Mr. Ce's method still carries risks..."

After hearing the interrogator's words, Thomson continued, "I understand what you're saying... As long as you give it your all, it doesn't matter if you fail..."

The interrogator nodded as he listened to Thomson's words...
