Chapter 1104: Chapter 1075: Torture Interrogation
Xiao Lin sat on the chair as if watching a movie. Troy had brought a few bottles of red wine and some snacks, and was comfortably seated on the side. This was an inconspicuous room, but the tools hanging on the wall were quite astonishing.
"You can start!" Xiao Lin elegantly raised his glass, swirling the red liquid inside, the wine sliding slowly down the edges of the glass. "Where did you get this good wine, it’s very pure!"
"My private collection!" Troy was quite excited to bring out his own stash, not for anything else but to witness another of Black Doctor’s talents which he hadn’t seen in a long time, and he had to thank Xiao Lin for this opportunity.
"You seem more excited than I am!" There was only coldness within his dark eyes.
"Hahaha!"
The lights dimmed, and this peculiar trick added a dramatic touch to the day’s interrogation. Xiao Lin hummed twice; he was very curious about this Black Doctor.
The suspect captured from the venue was tightly tied to a chair, with a spotlight shining on his head. Black Doctor, as grim as a corpse in Hell, slightly bowed to the few people in front, performing a gentlemanly gesture of a performer, adding more comedic effect to this dramatic performance.
"Torture Method One: Skinning! The steps are simple, first cut a circle on his arm. Be careful, not too deep or too shallow, just at the junction of skin and flesh." As he spoke, he took a small scalpel from a leather pouch he carried and began to lightly slice an inch above the suspect’s wrist.
A gentle circle, Black Doctor manipulated his strength perfectly, only cutting to the subcutaneous tissue, not a trace of blood surfaced.
"Then, immerse the hand below this circle in boiling water for a tenth of a second and quickly remove it, then submerge it in ice water for the same duration. Once taken out, with the fastest speed, peel it all off, and the entire piece of skin below the circle will fall off perfectly. Watching your own skin falling off, that feeling is... marvellous."
Gulp...
Xiao Lin and the others subconsciously looked at their right hands, skin falling off? Although medically feasible, and in terms of skinning technique, Flame Swallow’s skill surpassed Black Doctor’s, but as someone who adheres to the principle of saving lives, this kind of skill is something he only understands theoretically. Doing it himself would be challenging. He could kill mercilessly, but felt torturing was unnecessary unless absolutely required. Everyone couldn’t help but shudder, their glances towards Black Doctor changed instantly.
The oblivious Black Doctor seemed to savor the imagination. "However, since this kind of pain is almost unbearable for anyone, they might faint immediately. So, before that, we need to take some measures to ensure he can continuously enjoy this indescribable delightful agony. Someone, wrap those two wires to the dagger and connect them to the 36-volt battery I prepared earlier."
Once ready, Black Doctor grasped two daggers and plunged them into the suspect’s inner thighs.
Ah~~~ The person who was previously unconscious immediately woke up from the pain, furiously staring at Xiao Lin and the others, screaming, "Who are you? What do you want? Huh? Let me go."
Black Doctor ignored the furious suspect, explaining as if an old professor, "Notice the spot I just pierced, the inner thighs. It’s one of the most pain-sensitive locations in the human body and will perpetuate the pain. Power on. This voltage causes convulsion and pain, whilst also keeping him highly conscious."
"Truly perverse!" Xiao Lin bluntly remarked, watching as Troy’s men lightly connected the circuit.
Ah... the suspect let out a dull roar, his body beginning to convulse violently, teeth gritting, his plump face twisted in extreme agony, clearly experiencing unbearable pain.
Black Doctor chuckled at Xiao Lin with glee, snapping his fingers as if appreciating Xiao Lin’s earlier comment. "Begin."
He abruptly grasped the suspect’s right hand, quickly immersed it in the boiling water and ice water, then swiftly peeled off the skin with his left hand.
Plop... after a peculiar sound, a translucent human skin appeared before everyone.
The suspect stared at his blood-red right hand, stunned! After a brief silence, he suddenly let out a blood-curdling scream, unlike any human sound.
Ah... the chilling wail of a wounded beast made everyone feel a deep chill from the bottom of their hearts. Xiao Lin couldn’t help frowning; he didn’t like this performance. But just now, he learned from Consort Ling that after a brief consciousness, Xia Xue sank into a deep coma again. He wasn’t so sure if ’Wu Yue’ could be saved, but based on various physical characteristics, his blood seemed to have a suppressive effect on this toxic drug, but a complete cure might need more time.
"No, don’t! Who are you people? Why did you capture me!!" The suspect, with bloodshot eyes, his face twisted in extreme pain and convulsing violently, had tears, snot, and saliva all flowing out. At this moment, he must be feeling regret, but what he regrets, no one knows yet.
Black Doctor grabbed a piece of rag and forcefully stuffed it into his mouth. "The rest will be discussed later."
Picking up the bloody right hand continued, "Once the skin is completely removed, not only does the flesh get exposed, but all the subcutaneous nerves are unveiled. In this situation, heh, if you sprinkle some pepper, salt, chili powder, etc., it will stimulate the nerve system to the extreme, which is another indescribable pain!"
Upon hearing this, the suspect’s eyes widened immediately, desperately wanting to shout but only muffled groans came from his blocked mouth, his terror-stricken eyes gazing at the pepper in Black Doctor’s hand.
"That’s enough!" Xiao Lin timely halted Black Doctor’s heightened enthusiasm, this person was undoubtedly a madman. His hands were not for saving people, or rather, not for saving lives, but for out of his interest reviving people on the brink of death or turning healthy people into near-dead creatures. Thinking of this, Xiao Lin couldn’t help sighing, yet such a madman matched his taste completely. "If you keep on, there’s no need for questions, he’ll just die."
Troy laughed heartily, which was possible, though he believed Black Doctor would give Xiao Lin an opportunity to question the man before he breathed his last.
"Who ordered you to do this?"
"I don’t understand what you’re saying!"
"Ah! Seems you really like pepper!" Xiao Lin curiously pinched some powder and sprinkled it on the skinned texture, immediately the man squirmed like a twisting snake, only able to scream ah ah ah and nothing else!
"Who made you do this!" Repeating the same question for the second time, Xiao Lin, with patience, picked up another pinch of powder, rubbed it between his fingers. "You understand what I am saying! How was ’Wu Yue’ spread to those people?" (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
