Chapter 237 Interrogation of "Thousand Faces"

"Now that we've confirmed their identities, let's begin the interrogation."

After listening to their conversation, Mu Yaoguang said calmly, "To prevent any unforeseen complications, it's best to get a result as soon as possible."

Upon hearing Mu Yaoguang's order, Zhu Ze'an, the branch president of Canghai City, hesitated and said, "This... should we do another DNA test? Also, shouldn't we wait for the people from Yujing Martial Arts University to arrive?"

This old man was best at protecting himself; his intuition told him that there was a murky pool in front of him, and he should not step into it lightly.

Do you have genetic data with thousands of facets?

Mu Yaoguang glanced at him indifferently and said, "As for Yujing Martial Arts University, I have already notified them, and they will observe via video communication."

"Moreover, if we don't interrogate now, I'm afraid we'll only be able to interrogate a corpse later."

A clear voice rang out, and a young man entered the room, saying with a mocking tone, "My friend was murdered under the protection of the branch. I also witnessed the suspect die suddenly and inexplicably at the police station. The waters in Canghai City are truly deep."

"Is that so?" Zhang Jingting frowned upon hearing this, looking incredulous.

He trusted the boy's words quite a bit, after all, he had personally verified not long ago that the boy had the demeanor of an ancient gentleman.

That's right, the young man who entered was Bai Ze.

Zhu Ze'an immediately looked embarrassed and didn't know how to refute.

Although the person in front of him was just an executive member of the martial arts association, Zhu Ze'an could no longer look down on him from a superior's perspective.

Moreover, Mu Yaoguang, the General Association's Inspector, was also present.

Moreover, Bai Ze's words were reasonable and well-founded, and if Zhu Ze'an wanted to refute them, he could only lie through his teeth.

As they were talking, nanounits suddenly appeared beside Mu Yaoguang, forming a screen.

Then the screen lit up, showing the figures of two women.

The cold and assertive Ye Weiyang and the gentle and peaceful Lu Qiudi appeared on the screen at the same time. Lu Qiudi looked at the "Bai Ze" in the room with great interest and said, "This is the Thousand Faces? It's a pity I couldn't observe it in person. I'm quite interested in the 'Eight Sacred Branches of Taoism.' By the way, is this imitating Bai Ze?"

Ye Weiyang glanced around and said calmly, "I need corresponding data to prove that this is a thousand faces."

Only by providing data will Ye Weiyang... or rather, Yujing Martial Arts University, endorse this trial.

This has nothing to do with how close the relationship is; it's meant to be used as evidence to silence others.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yaoguang casually waved her hand, and a wisp of true energy passed directly through the one-way glass, entered the interrogation room, and struck "Bai Ze".

Bai Ze was struck, his body trembled, and a stream of true energy was ejected from his body, which was then drawn back outdoors.

At the same time, the face that looked exactly like Bai Ze's, but with a sinister air, shifted and changed, and in the blink of an eye, it became a different face.

She still looks quite good-looking, with fair skin, and her gender is indistinguishable, somewhere between androgynous, with a touch of femininity.

"The changes in facial muscles are consistent with the pattern; it certainly seems to be the legendary ability to create a thousand faces for a thousand people," Lu Qiudi said casually.

The wisp of true energy was sent into the instrument, and then the nano-units transformed into data lines, transmitting the data to Ye Weiyang.

“The data matches; it is indeed the true energy of the Eight Sacred Branches of Taoism,” Ye Weiyang said.

In this way, Qianmian's identity is confirmed.

"Begin the interrogation."

At Mu Yaoguang's command, a metal helmet rose from behind the seat and was placed on "Thousand Faces'" head.

The technicians outside were operating a platform and said, "Brainwave scan has been activated."

This is also a normal interrogation procedure of the Wushu Association, which can detect brain waves in real time and determine the truth.

As for soul searching or even forcibly extracting memories, that's a last resort.

Once used, it will cause devastating damage to the subject's brain, leaving them either dead or with dementia, and success is not guaranteed.

Generally, such destructive methods are only resorted to when absolutely necessary or as a last resort. "Is the interrogation finally beginning?"

Noticing the added weight on his head, "Thousand Faces," who was strapped to the chair, gently moved his head and said, "Just a heads up, drugs like truth serum are ineffective against me. If you want anything from me, you'll have to trade."

"You speak Dongxia so fluently, you must be from India, right?" Lu Qiudi's interest deepened.

She had been observing "Thousand Faces" all along, as if she could see a flower in "Thousand Faces".

"Namoska, a thousand faces greet you."

"Thousand Faces" casually uttered a phrase in Sanskrit, saying, "Would you like me to perform a Sanskrit-style song and dance for you right now? But that will require you to remove my restraints first."

"As an internationally renowned assassin, being fluent in various languages ​​is a basic requirement; you can't get by if you only speak Sanskrit and Hindi."

"You killed Luo Tao, and you still want to live?" Bai Ze said coldly.

"That's not how it works. I'm just a knife. If you want revenge, go find the person who wields it," "Thousand Faces" replied calmly.

It's perfectly normal for a person who can imply a thousand different faces to have some negotiation skills, right?
Anyway, no one doubted the "Thousand Faces" response.

"Then tell me the identity of the person wielding the knife!"

Bai Ze took a step forward, his anger barely contained.

Sensing the underlying restless energy, Zhang Jingting thought to himself, 'He seems calm, but he's actually a very sentimental person.'

Recalling how Bai Ze had restrained his strength and protected his friend's tombstone even when dealing with him, the attacker, Zhang Jingting felt that he had gained a deeper understanding of Bai Ze's character.

"Tell me, who hired you!" Bai Ze could not hide his anger.

“Tell me your employer, and you’ll have a chance to live. Don’t make me search your soul,” Mu Yaoguang added calmly.

As he spoke, an invisible spiritual force surged into the interrogation room like a tidal wave, relentlessly crushing everything in its path.

With his true energy imprisoned and unable to resist, "Thousand Faces" showed a look of pain as a chilling sensation pierced his skull like a blade.

"Ram Desai".

He forced back his pain and cried out, “Although he hired me through the Wanyi Collection, this isn’t the first time I’ve worked for him. As a fellow Indian, I know his identity; he is Ram Desai.”

"Anything else?" Mu Yaoguang's voice was flat, but her mental power pierced into "Thousand Faces'" mind. "How did you infiltrate the Martial Arts Association? And who has been protecting you these past few days?"

The pain on "Thousand Faces" deepened.

"I don't know who helped me, I only know that it was in Wuying District of the city... As for infiltrating the Martial Arts Association, someone gave me an electronic pass. I've never met him, but I disguised myself as an executive member of the Martial Arts Association to investigate and found him."

"He is Han Lin, a specialist from the Martial Arts Association."

"Hiss—" Zhu Ze'an gasped, then immediately looked at the brainwave detection screen.

Han Lin, a specialist in the Wushu Association, holds a position that is neither high nor low within the association's branch, but he has an older brother named "Han Xian".

Han Xian, on the other hand, is a specialist at the General Association and has a close relationship with the deceased second son of the Yun family.

The results of the brainwave test were—

The truth.

This is going to be a big problem.

By capturing Han Lin, we can investigate Han Xian and even those connected to the Yun family.

Perhaps with the testimony of "a thousand faces," it may not be possible to apprehend all the relevant personnel, but who knows what deadly things might be uncovered during the investigation.

The members of the Martial Arts Association and the Yun family have interactions; surely it can't all be just a superficial, gentlemanly relationship.

"It seems we have a plan," Mu Yaoguang said calmly.
