Chapter 1029 -410: Really Don’t Know_2

Wang Tao nodded and said no more.

When he saw Qiu Rong again, she was squatting disheveled in a corner of the cell.

Li Xin was in another cell, her condition not much different from Qiu Rong’s.

“Did you get anything out of them?”

Wang Tao asked Jiang Hui.

“No… They’re too tight-lipped! I can clearly feel that they are hiding something from me, but they just won’t talk, even – even when I threaten them, they still won’t say anything.”

Jiang Hui felt somewhat helpless.

During his interrogation of the two women, he had made many threatening statements, even saying that he would strip them naked and throw them into the slums to prostitute until they were broken and then toss them into the snow to freeze to death.

Jiang Hui himself thought these words were too extreme. He definitely wouldn’t do that; it was just to scare them.

But the two women still mentioned nothing of importance, completely avoiding the key points.

If it hadn’t been for the identity of the former mayor’s wife and Wang Tao paying attention to them, he might have really been unable to restrain himself from beating Qiu Rong first…

“So you didn’t get anything either… Alright, you guys go on out, I’ll talk to her alone.”

Wang Tao spoke.

“Yes!”

Jiang Hui didn’t waste any words. After handing over the keys to Wang Tao, he immediately left with the policewoman.

The cell was very dark, with no lights on and no windows. Wang Tao had just used Mental Detection to see Qiu Rong.

Szzz—

The sound of the iron door opening immediately caught Qiu Rong’s attention. Light from the corridor shone in, making it difficult for her to see who was entering, revealing only an imposing figure. She moved back in panic, but she was already in the corner of the room, kicking her legs in vain.

“Don’t, don’t come closer…”

Hum—

At that moment, the cell’s light turned on, the dazzling brightness making Qiu Rong instinctively shield her eyes. Once she slowly adjusted to the light, she saw the bulky figure already beside her.

“Mr., Mr. Wang?”

Qiu Rong still somewhat couldn’t believe it until Wang Tao squatted down, and she saw his face clearly, confirming it was indeed Wang Tao.

Suddenly, it was like grabbing a lifeline for Qiu Rong as she clung to Wang Tao’s legs, looking up at him with both terror and excitement. This time, it shouldn’t be an act. If it was another act, the only thing Wang Tao could say was that she was terrific.

“Mr. Wang, save me! I really didn’t kill anyone, I’m not the murderer…”

Obviously, she didn’t know it was Wang Tao who had allowed Jiang Hui to take her into custody.

Wang Tao moved her hair behind her ear, exposing her pale little face.

Wang Tao examined her closely, her face and neck indeed showing no signs of being beaten, her clothes were intact, still the same ones Wang Tao had seen the day before, without any signs of being torn.

“Have they beaten you?”

Wang Tao asked softly.

“…No.”

Qiu Rong instinctively wanted to say yes, but recalling how she was almost scared to death by Wang Tao’s glance the day before, she hastily shook her head.

“Then, did they molest you? Bully you?”

“…No… They just locked me up and asked me questions…”

Though Qiu Rong thought that acting pitiful might gain Wang Tao’s sympathy, she really didn’t dare, only able to tell the truth.

“Are you hungry?”

Wang Tao’s hand gently stroked her face as he asked.

“Hungry!”

Qiu Rong nodded hurriedly.

In fact, from Yao Guodong’s death until now, during these two days, except for drinking some water, she hadn’t eaten anything. Before, she didn’t want to eat; now, she wanted to but couldn’t, having been extremely hungry.

“If you tell me what you’re hiding, I’ll give you something to eat. How about that?”

A bottle of Nutrient Solution appeared in Wang Tao’s hand. He opened the bottle, and the rich scent of rice immediately made Qiu Rong swallow her saliva.

She stared intently at the nutrient solution in Wang Tao’s hand before speaking:

“I, I haven’t hidden anything… I’ve told you everything…”

Seeing that Qiu Rong was still stubborn, Wang Tao moved the nutrient solution closer to her and whispered quietly,

“I’m giving you one last chance, truly the last one.”

“I didn’t kill my husband, and I don’t know how he died…”

Seeing that Qiu Rong still didn’t admit it, Wang Tao shook his head.

“Sorry then…”

Qiu Rong’s strength was simply too weak, and Wang Tao wasn’t sure if there would be any accidents or side-effects after she was controlled by Jiang Shixue. Unfortunately, she kept silent, so there was nothing Wang Tao could do.

“It’s over to you.”

Jiang Shixue walked out from behind Wang Tao.

“What?”

Qiu Rong didn’t quite catch what Wang Tao said, and even until now, she hadn’t noticed that there was another person behind him.

While Qiu Rong was still confused, her gaze suddenly became dull, and then she stiffly turned her head to look at Wang Tao.

Being stared at by those lifeless eyes, Wang Tao felt somewhat uneasy.

Wang Tao looked at Jiang Shixue beside him.

Jiang Shixue immediately said,

“I sensed that the control duration is related to my Awakening Energy, it should be able to control her for a long time. I can manipulate her to do anything, or give her orders to carry them out on her own…”

“If it’s about fighting, I can enhance her combat to a higher limit. But I don’t know what she’s thinking in her mind. However, if I command her, I can make her say whatever she knows…”

Wang Tao nodded.

“Then have her answer about Yao Guodong’s death…”

The person controlled by Jiang Shixue only listened to Jiang Shixue’s commands, Wang Tao couldn’t control her. So, Wang Tao told Jiang Shixue what he wanted to know, and Jiang Shixue would then ask Qiu Rong.

After a while, Wang Tao was somewhat taken aback.

“Really, she genuinely doesn’t know?”

In this state, Qiu Rong couldn’t possibly lie, but regarding the matter of Yao Guodong’s murder, her answers were almost the same as before. This included her coaxing Yao Guodong to drink, saying she got Li Xin drunk, and then the three of them sleeping together; it was indeed true, she really planned that event…

Only in some respects, her statements differed from before, or she hadn’t mentioned them previously.

One was that Yao Guodong was incompetent in certain aspects; after all, he was older, so she felt very empty. But she hadn’t messed around, just occasionally played games with Li Xin…

Another was that she genuinely didn’t like Yao Guodong, including Li Xin. They agreed to become Yao Guodong’s wives purely for climbing the social ladder…

Also, she did indeed intentionally seduce Wang Tao. Her purpose in seducing Wang Tao was to find another influential figure to attach herself to.

After Yao Guodong died, they were left without support. Having seen many things while by Yao Guodong’s side, she was clear that if she didn’t quickly find someone influential to rely on, with their appearances and ordinary status, they couldn’t only lose their money but might end up devoured to the bone.

While Yao Guodong was alive, he spoke highly of Wang Tao, and Wang Tao’s strength was indeed formidable, so she wanted to give it a try. She thought Wang Tao was very young and with her charm, along with deliberate seduction, she should be able to draw Wang Tao’s attention.

However, she was also realistic and didn’t expect to become Wang Tao’s wife or anything; she just hoped to form a relationship with Wang Tao and gain his protection…

Besides these, there were some trivial matters that were a bit different from what she had previously said.

But the issue was, Wang Tao could discern or infer all of these things. Whether she spoke or not made no difference.

And regarding the murder of Yao Guodong, she truly did not know!

She said that if she had known Yao Guodong would die after drinking, she definitely would not have let him drink…

“Weird indeed… No, there’s another thing— the poison in her body!”

So, Wang Tao asked her how the poison got into her body.

It turned out she was completely unaware that she had been poisoned.

“Could it be an accidental contamination? Or perhaps, she didn’t realize she was poisoned?”

Wang Tao frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then asked another question.

“Why do you always want to leave City Hall?”

“Because… I need to take the Holy Medicine…”
