Playing the Eighth Route Army, the system is forcing this on me?

In the interrogation room.

The lights were a bit too bright.

"Name?"

Yi Zheng was taken aback.

What do you think?

Zhang Xiaoxue looked up, her pen pausing briefly on the paper.

"Just cooperate."

"Yi Zheng." Yi Zheng sighed.

"The righteousness of justice."

"gender?"

"ha?"

Zhang Xiaoxue put down her pen, looked up and stared directly at him.

"Huh? I'm asking you a question: gender!"

"No." Yi Zheng shrugged.

"We've been sleeping together for four years, and you're asking about the gender?"

Zhang Xiaoxue took a deep breath, her chest heaving slightly.

"height?"

"height!"

Zhang Xiaoxue stood up abruptly and slammed her hand on the table.

"Yi Zheng! I'm asking you a question!"

"No, don't you know how long I am!"

"I was asking about height!"

"Oh yeah, I was talking about height too, what did you think?"

"you!"

Zhang Xiaoxue pressed the pen against the paper, the tip almost piercing through it.

The clerk standing to the side was so frustrated that he could barely hold his pen.

Zhang Xiaoxue glanced at him.

"Wang Jianguo, get out."

Wang Jianguo quickly straightened his collar and sat up straight.

Zhang Xiaoxue pushed the form to the side.

"Alright, stop pretending."

"Now you know why I brought you here."

"Oh, I really didn't know that." Yi Zheng shrugged.

"I'm just an actor. I just finished filming and got back to the hotel, and then you guys showed up."

"Actor? Ha, an extra is an extra, why call yourself an actor?"

Zhang Xiaoxue slammed her phone down on the table.

On the phone screen, there was that trending topic.

"At a distance of over 100 meters, with iron sights, three shots were fired in quick succession, all hitting vital organs. Is this something a normal actor would do?"

Yi Zheng finally realized that the reason he was summoned was probably because his scene with Wu Jing that afternoon had been over-interpreted.

He shrugged, revealing a deadpan expression.

"What? Is it a crime to ejaculate quickly?"

Zhang Xiaoxue was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening.

She gritted her teeth, wishing she could utter every word through clenched teeth.

"Then let me ask you, when did you develop the habit of being shot twice in the chest and once in the head?"

"Back when we were living together."

Zhang Xiaoxue was stunned again.

"you!"

Her ears suddenly felt hot.

He then instinctively turned around and glared at the clerk.

Startled, the other person quickly lowered their head and scribbled something on the paper.

Zhang Xiaoxue finally understood.

Yi Zheng did this on purpose today.

Taking advantage of their past messy affairs, they're making a scene.

Conventional interrogation methods simply couldn't get him to talk.

Don't even think about asking me a single serious question.

If this continues, my authority as the newly appointed deputy captain will be completely ruined.

Just look at the clerk next to him, who's practically bursting with suppressed urges.

Zhang Xiaoxue took several deep breaths.

I forcibly suppressed my anger.

"Alright, Yizheng."

"Let me be frank. The number of people reporting you for murder has already exceeded ten thousand!"

"I asked you to cooperate with the interrogation, and you still dare to spout nonsense to me!"

Zhang Xiaoxue turned to look at the clerk next to her.

His tone was cold.

"go."

"Bring over that new piece of equipment from room number three."

The young policeman was stunned for a moment, forgetting all about gossip.

"Captain Zhang, which machine do we need? That's..."

"Stop talking nonsense! Just go when I tell you to!" Zhang Xiaoxue glared at him.

The young policeman quickly stood up and ran out the door.

It only takes three to five minutes.

A silver, semi-transparent instrument flashing various complex indicator lights was pushed in.

The machine is covered with a dense network of wires.

It's enough to make your scalp tingle just looking at it.

Yi Zheng squinted and scrutinized the metal lump. He was numb.

"No, Zhang Xiaoxue! Aren't you just using this to settle a personal score?"

"You only asked a few questions, and you went straight to using torture devices?"

Zhang Xiaoxue walked to the machine and looked coldly at Yi Zheng.

"Yi Zheng, shut up! Who told you to spout nonsense like that!"

"This machine is the latest AI lie detector that was just issued by the General Administration."

As Zhang Xiaoxue spoke, she picked up several patches with gel attached.

He walked up to Yi Zheng.

Without any hesitation, she applied the patch to Yi Zheng's wrist and carotid artery.

"As long as you lie."

"No matter how strong your mental fortitude is, or how well you act it out."

"Your physiological data doesn't lie."

Yi Zheng subconsciously swallowed.

broken!

This is really bad!

I don't know if this guy follows the rules, but...!

What if they actually uncover something wrong with the system during the audit?

Not only would it cause a national sensation, but I'd also be taken to 749 for dissection!

"What? Scared?"

"It's too late."

Zhang Xiaoxue returned to her seat and decisively turned on the machine's power switch.

"drop."

The machine emitted an electronic sound.

A faint blue light appeared on the screen, and various wavy lines began to dance.

Yi Zheng felt his palms start to sweat.

No, no, I'm too good at bluffing, but I can't out-bluff this cold, high-tech stuff!

We need to think of a solution!

He frantically called upon the system in his mind.

"System, please help me!"

"Is there any skill that can bypass this lie detector?"

"I need it urgently!"

The system's cold, mechanical voice immediately echoed in my mind.

[Ding! Host detected facing a high-risk interrogation environment.]

[Recommended skill: Emergency cover-up technique.]

[Exchange Price: 10 popularity points.]

what?

No, I'm a member of the Eighth Route Army!

Are you trying to make me buy Japanese skills again?

I had painstakingly accumulated popularity points, which I originally intended to save for buying Eighth Route Army skills.

The way you're doing this puts me in a difficult position!

drop.

As the lie detector was connected, the blood pressure monitor, already strapped to the upper arm, began to inflate.

Grass!

There's no time to think about it!

"Change it! Change it right now!"

[Ding! 10 popularity points deducted.]

[Emergency Lie Cover-up Techniques - Activated!]

Just one second before the lie detector was officially activated.

Yi felt an incredibly cool current of air instantly surge from his brain throughout his entire body.

My heart, which had been racing, miraculously calmed down.

Like an ancient well, calm and undisturbed.

The cold sweat in my palms disappeared instantly.

He entered a state of absolute calm, even somewhat coldness.

Even the frequency of their breathing became perfectly even, like a metronome.

Zhang Xiaoxue sat across the table.

His eyes were fixed on the real-time data on the machine screen.

Heart rate: 72.

Blood pressure: 110/70.

Skin conductance response: Absolutely normal.

All physiological indicators are normal.

She gave a mocking smirk.

This Yi Zheng is putting on quite a convincing act.

Let's see how long you can hold out.

Even the most mentally strong repeat offenders.

Even against this machine, it wouldn't last more than three seconds.

Zhang Xiaoxue reached out and pressed the record button on the desktop.

The red recording indicator light is on.

at the same time.

A bright green light lit up on the lie detector screen.

This means the lie detection program is ready and can begin identifying lies at any time.

The air in the interrogation room seemed to freeze completely at that moment.

The young policeman next to him didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

This team is too ruthless. They really treat people like they're going to kill them after a breakup.

They only reviewed it briefly before jumping straight to science and technology?

At this moment...

Zhang Xiaoxue leaned forward slightly and placed her hands crossed on the table.

It carried a powerful sense of oppression.

His gaze was like a knife, fixed intently on Yi Zheng's eyes.

The first fatal question was asked:

"Yi Zheng, I have a question for you."

She paused, then spoke slowly and deliberately:

"Have you...killed anyone?"
