Lin Jue turned around and looked over in shock, seeing Zheng Xi smiling at him through the fence gate with a hint of ferocity on his face.
"Mr. Lin, please don't blame me. I also did it under orders. You contradicted me in the hall and refused to confess your crime. The higher-ups came down with the explanation and wanted to give you some clues. I had no choice but to give it to you."
You are locked up in the No. 5 prison cell here. If you are wise, you should quickly confess your crime. Well, when you decide to confess your crime, shout loudly and we will come to rescue you. I advise you.
You'd better not lose your temper. After entering here, no matter how bad-tempered a person is, he will lose his temper. Again, I can't help myself. If I want to blame you, blame others. Just take care of yourself, Mr. Lin." Zheng Xi said in a deep voice.
.
Lin Jueshang was still in shock, Zheng Xi slightly cupped his hands, turned around and left quickly.
"Hehehe, hahaha, hehehe." The faces hidden in the darkness slowly emerged between the fences on both sides again, curiously looking towards the prison where Lin Jue was, as if expecting something fun.
things happen.
Lin Jue was thinking about what Zheng Xi had just said, and seemed to understand. Zheng Xi seemed to have obeyed orders from above and deliberately put himself in prison No. 5 to receive punishment. Because he was in the hall.
They were uncooperative, so they had to use this method to force themselves to cooperate. In other words, this room No. 5 was by no means a clean, ventilated and spacious place, but a place of torture.
Lin Jue's heart ached, not because he was afraid of what he was about to face, but because he felt extremely sad about what Fang Dunru had done. It was obvious that this was done under Fang Dunru's instructions. The dignified Fang Daru, the gentleman he once respected the most,
A person who talks about morality and justice, but in the end is lawless and uses such means to achieve his goal. It is nothing more than illegal detention. This is to secretly torture to extract confessions and force himself to submit. These methods have completely subverted himself. Fang Dunru
I don’t know when, but Fang Dunru seemed to have completely changed. He was no longer the person he respected in his heart.
From this, Lin Jue also deeply felt the pressure in Fang Dunru's heart. He and Yan Zhengshen had put all their wealth, life, political future and retribution, all their energy and goals on the new law. This was not only
It is a political gamble, and it is also a gamble about human nature. In order to win, they have abandoned many things they originally cherished. And this desperate approach is precisely reflected in the crazy implementation of the new law today.
.
In fact, all this has been foreshadowed for a long time, but I just realized it now.
Prison No. 5 was indeed very spacious. After adapting to the dim light, Lin Jue could clearly see the layout inside. There were no tables, chairs, or beds. There was only a large piece of tangled grass near the corner.
There were several figures sitting around. At this moment, they were all looking at Lin Jue with wide eyes. The malicious intent in their eyes was undisguised.
"Hello everyone, I'm Lin Jue. I'm new to Guibao. Sorry to bother you. Sorry to bother you." Lin Jue greeted awkwardly and held his hands in front of several people.
Several people stared at Lin Jue without saying a word. Lin Jue laughed twice, walked to the corner by the fence and sat down against the fence. He didn't want to offend those people.
Fortunately, those few people didn't seem to think too much about talking to him. They turned their heads and slurped something, their mouths squeaking very loudly.
Lin Jue naturally wouldn't provoke them. He just leaned against the fence quietly and thought about the matter. When he came today, he didn't expect that he would be detained in prison, so he didn't make too many preparations. Lian Yang Xiu said
I wanted to inform the young prince but he was rejected. I thought I could leave after asking, but unexpectedly I am now in jail. I underestimated Fang Dunru's madness.
It stands to reason that Yang Xiu should pay attention to this matter. If he doesn't go out for a long time, Yang Xiu should at least inform his family. But now the little princess is pregnant with Liujia, what will other people do if they find out? Lin Jue pinched her
After counting with his fingers, he suddenly found that he had no one to rely on. At this critical moment, he found that no one could save him. Lin Jue felt a burst of sadness.
This may be related to my own position. When I choose to act according to my own intentions and not be attached to any force in the DPRK, this is the result I am destined to have. Since I became an official, I have actually done nothing politically.
, but it is also true. However, Lin Jue knew that he could not cling to the forces in the DPRK without conscience. To a certain extent, he was also stubborn and stubborn.
However, Lin Jue did not feel that the current situation was too pessimistic. Fang Dunru wanted to force him to cooperate, and he did not dare to detain himself for too long, otherwise it would be difficult for him to explain himself. The detention and interrogation was already out of bounds, and he wanted to imprison himself.
He must be convicted. And his so-called suspicion of being an accomplice needs to be supported by evidence.
What's more, Concubine Rong in the palace should have begun to lobby the Queen Mother. As long as this matter is completed and Prince Liang's crime is relieved, Fang Dunru will not be able to make any fuss about this matter. At that time, he can only
Just let go and don't force yourself to say anything.
What we have to do now is how to survive the time in this prison. Maybe things will turn around in the afternoon.
Lin Jue squinted his eyes and rested against the fence, feeling ups and downs in his heart. The light from the small window high on the west wall gradually became brighter, and a ray of sunlight slanted in and fell on the wall at the top of the fence on the north side.
It has also become brighter inside. Judging from the angle of the sun, it should be past afternoon.
After the light in the cell came on, Lin Jue could clearly see the appearance of a few people sitting on the grass in the corner. They were six extremely vicious-looking men. They were shirtless, and their arms were tangled with muscles.
He looked powerful and strong. Six people sat around a large wooden basin. Inside, a pig that looked like a roast pig had eaten most of its meat. They tore the meat with their big, oily hands and still ate it with gusto.
Lin Jue only glanced at them a few times and then didn't dare to look again because he didn't want to get into trouble. When they were looking at them, those few people were eating and looking at Lin Jue. Lin Jue felt hairy all over his body.
Finally, a big man stood up with a belch, reached for the wooden basin, walked to the fence, and roared.
"Eat, eat!"
This voice caused the prisoners in other cells around them who were originally calm to immediately become commotion. They rushed to the fence and started crowding and shouting.
"Master Xiong, this way, this way."
"Master Xiong, please show me some favors."
The man laughed, reached out his hand in the wooden basin, grabbed a handful of bones, meat and skin, and threw it towards the crowd on the fence. The crowd started to rush for food like a nest exploded. Those were actually the leftover bones and skins, and they had already been eaten.
There wasn't much meat left, but it was still enough to beat them to a bloody head.
"Hahaha, a bunch of dog-like things." Several big men on the grass laughed and laughed.
Mr. Xiong grabbed a lot of miscellaneous things and still threw them towards the surrounding fence. The prisoners who grabbed the bones ignored the mud and grass clippings and gnawed the bones like crazy. They wanted to chew the bones and swallow them.
Down.
Mr. Xiong threw away everything in the tub, wiped his greasy hands on his body, and laughed.
"Thank you Mr. Xiong for the reward. Mr. Xiong will bake them more cooked next time so that the bones can be chewed."
"Master Xiong is full and ready to do things. Everyone is waiting to see how many masters are cooking up things. We finally have some fun."
The prisoners shouted.
Mr. Xiong waved his hand and turned to look at Lin Jue. Suddenly he waved his hand and made a clicking sound, and something fell next to Lin Jue. Lin Jue took a closer look and saw that it was a half-gnawed pig's trotter.
"You...eat. You'll have the strength to bear it for a while. It's not good to be hungry." Master Xiong pointed to the pig's trotters and said to Lin Jue.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Thank you very much, I don't like pig's trotters."
"Hahaha. You don't like pig's trotters? You'll eat the poop in a few days." The prisoners in other prisons laughed.
Mr. Xiong also laughed and said in a low voice: "I didn't ask you whether you like it or not. I asked you to eat these pig's trotters and you will have the strength to serve us six brothers in a while."
Lin Jue frowned and reached out to grab half of the pig's trotter and threw it far away to the prison opposite. The people inside stretched out more than a dozen hands and waited to catch it. Unexpectedly, the pig's trotter hit the fence and fell a few feet outside. Seven or eight hands
They stretched out to reach it, but couldn't reach it, so they cursed in a hurry.
Mr. Xiong's face changed color and he said coldly: "How dare you disobey me? How dare you not eat if I ask you to eat?"
Lin Jue said: "I told you I don't like to eat."
"Hahaha, brother, this guy is really interesting. He doesn't know his situation yet. Brother, you might as well tell him. It's interesting, it's interesting." The other five people stood up on the grass and gathered around with smiles.
Mr. Xiong chuckled and said: "This boy is indeed quite interesting. Boy, what did you do to get here? Looking at your polite appearance, I'm afraid you have only been an official for a few years. You civil servants are all so bad that they bleed.
The more polite you are, the more evil-minded you are. Come on, tell me what you have committed? It will relieve my boredom."
Lin Jue said calmly: "I didn't commit any crime, I was unjustly accused."
"Hahaha." Dozens of prisoners in several cells laughed loudly.
"We said the same thing when we came in. I've been saying this for eight years, but I still don't know how to be locked up and raised like pigs? It's ridiculous. Everyone who comes in says they are unjust." Someone laughed.
Lin Jue frowned and didn't answer. But Mr. Xiong said loudly: "That's not entirely true. When my brothers came in, they didn't say that they were wronged. It's a fact that I... killed an army officer in the border town. I never said that.
I was wronged."
"Yes, yes, Master Xiong is naturally different. You generals are bleeding desperately in the border town, but someone stabs you in the back. No wonder Master Xiong and others are angry and kill people. In fact, this is also unjust. Those guys deserve to be killed.
." Several prisoners said in succession.
Mr. Xiong chuckled and said: "It's a pity that you are not the officials of Yushitai, otherwise I might not need to be locked up here. I won't mention it, I won't mention it. If you can live happily every day, why do you care so much? "
"Yes, yes, it's okay not to mention it. Let's concoct this kid first. This kid must have committed something. Looking at him, he must have deceived someone with a woman and ruined his reputation and was caught. This kind of person is the most abominable. It's more abominable than corruption and bribery." Someone shouted loudly.
"Boy, is that true? Are you ruining a woman's reputation by relying on her handsome face?" Mr. Xiong glared at Lin Jue and shouted.
Lin Jue was too lazy to answer him and frowned: "I can't tell you clearly, why bother asking again."
"That's it. What I hate the most is people like you. I sent you here just right. Boy, do you know what we will do to you in a while? Do you want to know?" Mr. Xiong shouted.
Lin Jue frowned and didn't answer.
Mr. Xiong chuckled and said in a low voice: "You will take turns serving the six of us brothers in a while. Do you know how to serve us? Use your mouth first, then your buttocks. Do you understand? I told you to eat pig's trotters but you won't eat them. After you have served us, you I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it even if you want to. It will make your upper part swollen and your lower part painful. It's definitely delicious. Hahahaha."
