Chapter 466: Did I say I wanted to go out?

~7 min read 1,328 words

"Many thanks, Doctor Zhang!" Tang Laoyezi was so moved that old tears flowed: "This is truly Heaven helping our Tang family, letting Bingyan escape a disaster!"

"Bingyan, tell Grandpa, is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable now?"

Tang Bingyan shook her head, her tone softening a bit: "Grandpa, I've made you worry. I'm fine."

"It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine..." Tang Laoyezi choked up: "If something had happened to you, how would I face the old woman and your parents after I pass on!"

Tang Bingyan is actually really fine...

Tang Jihuai, standing to the side, felt increasingly guilty.

Originally, he still held a glimmer of hope that Tang Bingyan's recovery was just a flash in the pan.

But now, seeing Tang Bingyan awake for so long without any discomfort, he had to completely believe the doctors' diagnosis.

What to do?

He had already locked Xu Tian in the interrogation room. How should this be resolved?

Previously, he had only said a few words about Xu Tian in front of everyone, and Tang Bingyan had dealt with him according to family law, breaking his son's leg.

Now, if this female demon knew that he had locked her precious man in the interrogation room, the consequences...

Tang Jihuai felt panicked and uneasy. Subconsciously, he turned to look at Tang Zhipeng, constantly comforting himself.

As long as he insisted that he did it for the sake of the Family Head, Tang Bingyan might not necessarily be able to do anything to him.

However, just as he pinned his hopes on the upright Tang Zhipeng, he suddenly realized that Xu Tian was not only Tang Bingyan's man but also her savior.

He had arrested the Tang family's savior; both publicly and privately, Tang Zhipeng could not possibly stand on his side.

Tang Jihuai became more and more afraid. Taking advantage of the fact that Tang Laoyezi, Tang Zhipeng, and the others had their attention on Tang Bingyan, he quietly walked outside the ward, took out his phone, and dialed his subordinate's number.

"Where is that pretty boy Xu Tian now?"

"Sir, we have already locked him in the interrogation room according to your request. Should we start the interrogation now?"

"Interrogate your grandfather, release him immediately!"

"What? Release him?" The subordinate was bewildered.

"Can't you understand my words? Release him at once!" Tang Jihuai roared into the phone with a ferocious face, his heart filled with panic.

"Okay, I'll release him right away..." The subordinate didn't know what had happened and could only comply.

Tang family interrogation room.

After receiving his instructions, Tang Jihuai's bodyguard subordinates rushed over immediately.

At this moment, Xu Tian was sitting on the floor, bored, watching the interrogation in the opposite room with great interest.

"Smack! Smack!"

"Ah..."

The sound of whipping and screams from across the way were incessant. Xu Tian felt it was a bit noisy and simply sat further away.

Just now, he had gathered some information from the interrogator's questions: this prisoner had sneaked into the Tang family and leaked some of the Tang family's project data. Later, when the matter was exposed, he was sent to the interrogation room.

This person had been locked up for several months and still refused to name the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Even if you beat me to death, I won't say it!" The prisoner was beaten until his skin was torn and flesh was mangled, with healing wounds being torn open again, yet he remained stubborn.

"Dream on!" The interrogator was also infuriated by this prisoner and lashed out two more heavy whips: "Death would be too easy for you. If you don't confess the mastermind, you don't even have the qualification to die!"

"Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!"

Successive sounds of the whip rang out, and the screams were incessant.

"Big brother, if you interrogate like this, you won't pry his mouth open even if you interrogate until next year." Xu Tian was truly annoyed by the pig-like squealing and couldn't help but speak up: "Have none of you interrogators undergone systematic training?"

"Only laymen would blindly use torture. If you accidentally beat him to death, how will you report to your superiors?"

"I already told you whipping is useless, why don't you believe me?"

"And your technique for swinging the whip is also poor. This level of pain can usually be endured by anyone who has been trained."

"If you trust me, I can teach you a method that gets twice the result with half the effort. You find a lion or some other fierce beast, lock it in the same room as this prisoner, and tie a chain, mastering the distance so that it can get close to the prisoner but just barely can't bite him."

"However, the chain shouldn't be the particularly sturdy kind; it's best if it can be broken by the lion, but you don't know when it will break. In this way..."

"Shut up!" The interrogator couldn't bear it any longer, turned his head, and glared at Xu Tian: "Are you the prisoner or the interrogator? How about I let you take this position?"

"That's fine too?" Xu Tian stood up carelessly and walked to the door, pointing at the lock on the iron gate: "You open the lock, and I guarantee that within half a day, I can make him say all the information you want to know."

Just at this moment, the prisoner, who had been keeping his eyes tightly shut, suddenly opened them and even used all his strength to reach out to the interrogator.

"Don't... you keep whipping... don't let that kid come over..."

Before the interrogator could take any action, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the corridor outside the interrogation room.

Two bodyguards dressed in black suits rushed over and spoke directly to the interrogator.

"Big brother, release that kid."

These two bodyguards were both Tang Jihuai's confidants. After receiving Tang Jihuai's instructions, they arrived at the interrogation room at the first opportunity.

Seeing these two running over in such a hurry, a flash of brilliance crossed Xu Tian's eyes.

These two actually want to let him out?

The interrogator holding the whip saw these two bodyguards as if he had seen the dawn: "Hurry up and take this ancestor away. If he doesn't leave, I might as well resign and quit!"

The two bodyguards didn't understand why, but seeing the interrogator's miserable expression and looking at the calm Xu Tian beside him, they suddenly felt particularly fortunate that they were only responsible for escorting, not guarding.

"Alright, hurry up and release him, and then it's none of your business."

Although they didn't know why Tang Jihuai wanted to release the person again, it wasn't within their scope of concern. They just needed to release the person according to the instructions.

The interrogator didn't want to stay with Xu Tian for even a second longer. This person looked gentle and handsome, but he didn't expect his methods to be so ruthless. The interrogation plan he proposed made even him, an experienced interrogator, feel creepy.

He couldn't wait to open the dark room where Xu Tian was: "You are free now, hurry up and get out."

Xu Tian crossed his arms and looked at the interrogator and bodyguards in front of him, curling his lips slightly: "Did I say I wanted to go out?"

"What?"

The interrogator and the bodyguards were all stunned.

Usually, prisoners who were locked in were desperate to escape. This was the first time they had seen someone who didn't want their freedom and insisted on lingering in the interrogation room.

"Mr. Xu, we are not playing with you; we really want to release you." The two bodyguards looked at each other, thinking that Xu Tian might be worried about being secretly executed after going out, so they explained patiently: "No one will ambush you; you don't need to worry at all." ===== CHAPTER 467 =====
