What kind of person can withstand torture to extract a confession
Specially trained? No pain? Or have some kind of unswerving faith
In any case, the young thief did not fit into any of the above categories.
So, Harry simply begged for mercy:
"Lord Capone, don't, don't! I say, I say!"
Capone stopped the executioner expressionlessly, and then said to Harry, "Tell me, my patience is limited."
Harry couldn't take care of anything at this time, in order to avoid being punished, he could only make the most sensible choice - dumping the blame.
"My lord, Bruce was the one who acted with me last night! I didn't see any bonds at all, this kid must have stolen it, it must be him!"
"Bru?" Capone frowned, then turned to Orlando beside him.
Orlando endured the anger in his heart, and told his younger brother: "Go and find Bruce."
"yes!"
Seeing his younger brother leaving in a hurry, Capone did not intend to let Harry go, and immediately ordered the executioner:
"continue."
Harry breathed a sigh of relief just now, but was dumbfounded again:
"Lord Capone, I've already said it! Why do you still..." "How do I know if you're lying?" Capone smiled dismissively, and then ignored Harry's begging.
"ah-"
Suddenly there was a creepy scream in the room.
…
Bruce tried his best to open his sleepy eyes, but found that there was only a blurry shadow in front of him.
After a carnival and getting drunk last night, now he is light and light, and his consciousness is completely unconscious.
But soon, he was forced to wake up.
Crash!
Bruce felt a basin of cold water being poured over his head, and he shivered instantly, and the phantom in front of him finally took shape.
Then, he recognized Orlando.
"Father!" Bruce immediately shouted as if he had found some kind of support.
Orlando is not actually Blue's father, to be precise, not his biological father.
There are many orphans without father and mother in Clover City, and their best destiny is to be adopted by a big boss.
Of course, this so-called adopted son is completely incomparable with the adopted son of the nobles who has the right to inherit.
Orlando has nothing for his adopted son to inherit. Of course, he adopted orphans not out of kindness, but just wanted some younger brothers who would work hard for him.
Therefore, Orlando has more than 300 adopted sons like Bruce...
Therefore, Bruce's cry did not stir up any waves in Orlando's heart. He looked at his adopted son expressionlessly, and said coldly:
"Brue, were you and Harry on the move last night?"
"Yes, Father. Last night I was out helping Harry out, and he went in and stole something, and then gave me a gold coin."
"Let the wind go?" Orlando frowned, "Didn't you go in to get something yourself?"
Bruce quickly shook his head like a rattle: "No."
Capone sat on the side, and when he heard this, he hummed impatiently as a sign of urging.
Orlando squatted in front of Bruce, took out a bond, and asked in a gentle and friendly tone, "Bruce, tell father, did you take this kind of thing?"
"Father, I never entered that caravan's residence." Bruce shook his head again and again, then glanced at the bond in Orlando's hand, and denied it even more firmly, "Really, Father, I have never entered the thing in your hand." seen."
Orlando's eyes finally turned cold, his patience was gradually exhausted, and he asked for the last time: "My child, you don't know the true value of this kind of thing at all, it's not something you can covet at all, not even me Dare to touch it!
Hand it over, Lord Capone and I can guarantee your safety, and even give you enough money to spend your whole life.
However, if you continue to be stubborn, don't blame me for not being a father and son! "
"Father, I'm really telling the truth! You must believe me!" Blue hugged Orlando's thigh, crying, "Harry must have stolen it, and he put the blame on me! It must be so! You You can interrogate Harry!"
Orlando's face gradually became stiff, and a wave of anger ignited from his chest. He kicked Bruce to the ground and growled:
"Harry, we've already interrogated, now it's your turn!"
After finishing speaking, he nodded to the executioner who was already eager to try, and then turned his head away, as if he couldn't bear to look any longer.
"Father! Father! You must believe me... Ah! Save me! Ah! Ah..."
The shrill screams echoed in the room, and the smell of blood mixed with excrement and urine gradually permeated.
…
Clover City City Lord's Mansion.
"Father, I found out that the caravan entering the city belongs to the North Wind Chamber of Commerce."
"Northern Wind Chamber of Commerce?" Of course Ron had heard the name of this Chamber of Commerce, after all, the North Wind Chamber of Commerce was the largest Chamber of Commerce in the North.
Moreover, he also heard that Arnold, the chairman of the Northwind Chamber of Commerce, had some trouble with Earl Angelet because of the establishment of the Northern Foreign Trade Company.
"What was stolen from the caravan, have you found out?" Ron asked again.
"Check it out, it is said that it is a bond of great value!"
"The kind of bonds that the St. Hilde family recently issued?"
"That's right."
"Hehe." Ron smiled faintly, "It seems that when they came to report the crime, they really didn't tell the truth."
When the people from the caravan came to the public security station to report the crime this morning, they only said that they had lost some gold coins and important documents.
"The caravan probably didn't dare to tell the truth. After all, the value of the bonds was so huge that even Capone was already alarmed, and they are reviewing them personally." Jason said affirmatively.
There was no secrecy at all in a loose organization like the Clover Brotherhood, and the moment Capone told Orlando about it, the news leaked out immediately.
Ron stopped talking and paced back and forth in the room.
He suddenly felt that this matter might not be as simple as it appeared on the surface.
How did the Northwind Chamber of Commerce come to Clover City with bonds of huge value
Who are they trading with
The reason why Capone is so nervous is because the huge value of the bond has moved him? Or was it the big man in the Eastern Realm behind him who spoke
Of course, the most important thing is, what kind of impact will this incident have on Clover City
Seeing that Ron remained silent, Jason felt a little anxious, so he took the initiative to ask, "Father, what should we do?"
Ron pondered for a while, before saying, "Go to Red Maple Manor immediately and tell Count Angelet about this."
Jason rubbed the back of his head, hesitantly said: "Father, didn't you say before that you should allow these northern businessmen to smuggle in Clover City? Why are you taking the initiative to alarm Earl Angelet now?"
"Because...the North Wind Chamber of Commerce has a problem!" Ron said in a deep voice, "Don't ask any more questions, you leave immediately!"
"Yes!" Jason had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart, turned and walked out.
