“Ugh……”

The hoarse voice resounded in the empty room, and then, with some effort, Bisnar Orfield finally managed to open his eyelids. His gray eyes, the same color as a mouse, observed the surrounding environment very cautiously, but the panic that masked the appearance of caution could not be hidden in any way.

The first time he regained consciousness, Bisnar Orfield was still a little confused. The last image in his mind was that he was pulled closer to the water by that damn mermaid Kiro, and then his throat was pressed by the other party’s transformed legs to the point where he was almost suffocated. He had no idea what happened afterwards, as he had already fainted before that.

After recalling the scene before he fainted, Bisnar Orfield quickly realized that his current situation was not good.

He was definitely not rescued from the basement by Lichma or anyone else. After all, if it were his own men, he should be lying on soft bedding soaked in the smell of sunlight instead of being stung by the iron behind him until his whole body ached.

So, where is he now?

Bisnar Orfield’s eyes moved up and down, looking carefully at the room he was in.

The silver-white wall, door, and floor tiles were spotless, and a corner of the table in the same color tone could be seen in the remaining light parallel to his position by the wall. Apart from this, there is nothing else or anyone else that can be seen from his point of view…

“You’re awake.”

In his mind, he was thinking about how there was no one around him, whether they were guarding him or otherwise, when a clear voice suddenly came from behind him.

Bisnar’s eyes were in a trance for a moment. The sound was so pleasant that it reminded him of the salty sea breeze blowing from the sea in the afternoon and the seagulls hovering in the blue sky. One can’t help but be mesmerized.

After a brief moment of disorientation, Bisnar Orfield quickly gathered his composure and put on his high and mighty noble mask again. However, compared with the previous him or other nobles, the mask more or less has some cracks now.

After all, Ji Mingjiang has not completely repaired his spiritual sea.

In the silver-white space, after that brief sound fell just now, other clanking sounds rang out, like the rattling of some potion bottles and syringes colliding with an iron plate.

“Who are you! Why am I here? Do you know my identity?! If you don’t want to live in endless pursuit all the time in the future, hurry up and let me go!”

Bisnar Orfield felt a little uneasy. While he deliberately used scolding words to provoke the person behind him in order to get the conversation going, he was secretly frightened when he recalled the tone of this person just now.

He just realized that the tone of the sentence “You’re awake” didn’t rise at the end, and the person seemed very calm and confident.

However, he was clearly observing the surrounding environment calmly just now, without making any movement at all!

“Mr. Orfield, you don’t need to use such words to provoke me. If you want to ask something, as long as you cooperate with me honestly, I will not fail to tell you.”

Ji Mingjiang couldn’t help but sneer after hearing his harsh words. With a tap of his toe, he accurately moved the mobile table with various torture instruments in front of him to Bisnar, who was tied to the iron frame.

The syringe that had sucked in the light green medicine emitted a luster similar to emerald under the illumination of incandescent lamps, and the various torture instruments that Bisnar was familiar with placed in categories next to it made his face even paler and twitched consciously.

Looking at the iron chain that was rattled by his movements, Ji Mingjiang twitched the corners of his mouth, his eyes full of disgust.

It turns out that this old guy is also afraid when he sees these things.

“Okay, I don’t have time to talk nonsense to you anymore.” Ji Mingjiang, who was feeling a little irritable, lost interest in creating a scary atmosphere and took a few steps quickly from behind Bisnar Orfield.

Casually taking the whip that was neatly coiled on the table, he shook it off and flung it through the air under the gaze of Bisnar Orfield, who was either shocked or terrified, the force of it seeming to shatter the air with a gust of wind.

“Give your own account from the beginning to the end, or I’ll ask myself.”

The ghastly white light struck down from above his head, and the mermaid’s expression was no longer the gentle one Bisnar had seen on the live broadcast. The drooping lashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and malice crawled out of that shadow, tightly entwined around Bisnar Orfield’s plump neck.

“Ha…”

When Bisnar Orfield wanted to struggle due to the familiar feeling of suffocation, he realized later that the entanglement he felt on his neck was not something he had imagined due to excessive fear but was caused by Ji Mingjiang. He didn’t know when the shiny black whip was wrapped around his neck!

The whip wound up closer and closer, and Bisnar Orfield’s gray eyes widened until they almost popped out of their sockets. His fingers were twitching violently, trying to break free from the shackles of the chains so that he could rip the whip away from his soon-to-be strangling self, but in the end, it was futile.

Fortunately, Ji Mingjiang had no real intention to kill him now. After a few short seconds, the whip that he had just obtained was flexibly and obediently taken back into his hand.

The fear of being on the verge of death due to suffocation two times so short apart made Bisnar Orfield a little frightened. His body trembled violently, and then, under Ji Mingjiang’s gaze full of shock and disgust, a stream of urine came out from underneath him.

“Disgusting…”

The sharp five senses of the mermaid brought him great torture at this time. Ji Mingjiang pinched his nose in pain and fiercely pressed the cleaning button. For a moment, he didn’t know who was being tortured.

The ventilation system started running at a high speed, and the sprinkler located directly above Bisnar Orfield also started working. After the air in the room became fresh again, Bisnar Orfield’s clothes, which had been drying out a little bit, also became wet once again.

The airflow from the ventilation fan hit his soaked clothes, causing Bisnar Orfield to tremble, and the chain behind him made a continuous sound again.

“Be honest, I didn’t want to make this place so disgusting just by asking a question.” Putting down the hand holding his nose, Ji Mingjiang turned his back out of sight. While arranging the whip and syringe on the table, he carelessly said the most heart-stopping words: “Playing dumb and sophistry are useless. We have also arrested Wang Weiming. Questioning you again is just a procedure to give you one last chance.”

After picking and choosing, Ji Mingjiang picked up the syringe in the middle, his slender white fingers stuck on the transparent outer wall of the syringe, complementing the green medicinal liquid in it, and lined up this tube of no more than ordinary medicine with a sense of preciousness.

“Wang Weiming, don’t tell me that you are not familiar with him.”

Ji Mingjiang slowly came closer. His upper body leaned over slightly, and the sharp needle tip, which shone coldly from time to time under the light, pressed against Bisnar Orfield’s neck. With a little force, a small depression was made.

He controlled the force very well, and the needle tip touched the skin without piercing it. However, this tiny prick, which would not even be noticed by Bisnar Orfield in normal times, was like a bolt of lightning at this moment. It stimulated him from his neck straight to his brain, causing him to shiver all over.

“Of course I know him, the director of the institute and the most useful dog under Clarice. He develops many things for his use every year, but what does this have to do with me?”

Though inevitably a little flustered by the fact that he didn’t know what kind of drug was inside that syringe against his neck, Bisnar Orfield still forced himself to speak calmly.

After all, he still can’t explain why Clarice would let such a… strange mermaid come to interrogate him. Is it true that the evidence is already collected, as the mermaid claimed, and interrogating him is just a procedure, or is he deliberately setting things off in secret? But in any case, this mermaid is here to replace Clarice, so he(JMJ) won’t really do anything to him(Bitchna), right?

Thinking of this, Bisnar Orfield, who was very flustered just now, quickly calmed down. Despite the heavy constraints of the iron chain and the threat of the syringe needle, he still managed to hold his head up, and with a disdainful and arrogant expression, he said to Ji Mingjiang, whose expression remained unchanged: “What did Clarice do to you? Human experiment? It seems that he isn’t much better than me, and you’re still working so faithfully for him? Don’t blame me for not reminding you. Clarice doesn’t even dare do anything to me. You’re a mermaid who depends on his breath for survival… Haha, you’d better be obedient.”

At the end of the sentence, for some reason, Ji Mingjiang saw Bisnar Orfield, who had been looking at him with his head held high just now, suddenly lowering his chin and sizing him up with a slightly familiar and disgusting gaze. His gray eyes mixed with too many emotions were cloudy and disgusting, and then he grinned and said, “Although I knew you were good-looking when I watched your live broadcast before, this is the first time I’ve seen you so close. For an experiment object like you, maybe I can get you from Clarice when his experimentation technology matures.”

“…”

After hearing these words, Ji Mingjiang took a step back silently. It wasn’t that he was scared or offended; he simply felt… disgusted.

The cloudy eyes were disgusting, the words that spewed venom like a viper were disgusting, the unwarranted speculation about Clarice was disgusting, and the stubbornness of the arrogant man living in his own world was also disgusting.

“It seems that you are still unwilling to honestly cooperate with me.” After twisting his head to take a breath of fresh air, Ji Mingjiang sighed and looked at the still-confident Bisnar Orfield with big regret. “It’s my fault for not telling you everything; that’s why you can say those words with confidence. I forgot to tell you that the entire Orfield house is now blocked off. Everyone in your mansion, including the maids and servants, has all been captured and interrogated separately.”

As Ji Mingjiang retells the scene, the corners of Bisnar’s mouth become stiffer and stiffer, and his eyes are filled with disbelief.

“…That’s mostly the case. That’s why I was trying to persuade you to tell the truth. Why didn’t you believe me?”

Ji Mingjiang tilted his head in confusion. A strand of silver-white hair that was smooth and completely different from Kiro’s dry and rough hair in Bisnar’s impression fell from his shoulders and reached the royal totem embroidered with golden silk thread that appears and disappears behind him.

There was a sudden, sharp pain in his neck, and then the cold liquid was slowly pushed into his body. It’s impossible to say whether it’s the effect of the potion or fear due to the unknown, but Ji Mingjiang could sense the obviously tightened emotions of the person in front of him.

However, he just glanced at Bisnar Orfield, who was twitching his facial muscles, and then withdrew his gaze. The syringe in his hand was a bit long and sucked up a lot of potion. He pushed the plunger in slowly while saying in a volume that Bisnar Orfield could hear even in his extreme nervousness: “His Majesty and I have rescued Kiro from your basement… Don’t move around; no one will help you if the needle tip breaks off inside.”

“If Clarice’s memory is correct, he did let Wang Weiming test the basement of each of your homes ten years ago, didn’t he? And at that time, he obviously didn’t find anything… Aren’t you curious why we suddenly found it today?”

There was only the last bit of the light green potion left. Ji Mingjiang pushed it in, then looked at Bisnar Orfield’s suddenly widened eyes and said, “Of course it’s because the old guy can’t stand the torture, and he confessed himself. But we all know that people always like to shift the blame to others and then package themselves as flawless, coerced accomplices. This is unfair to you, isn’t it?”

Ji Mingjiang casually threw the empty syringe into the iron plate on the table behind him with a crisp sound, then he used a bit of mental power and looked at the somewhat distracted gray eyes of the person in front of him with an indifferent expression. “That’s why Clarice and I decided to give you one last chance. It’s up to you to choose whether you want Wang Weiming to be taken to court to stand trial with you…or he gets away with it and continues to be his own powerful researcher, while you, the Bodhisattva, will bear all, even unfounded charges?”

The special soothing agent and Ji Mingjiang’s adjusted mental power made Bisnar feel a little dazed. The silver-white wall beside him turned into a transparent glass wall at some point.

He craned his head hard to see that Wang Weiming, in his ever-present white coat, was being helped down from the familiar iron frame by Clarice, his face all joy at having escaped.

“Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I was forced back then… It was all that guy, Bisnar Orfield, who forced me to do this… I’m willing to testify in court against the crimes he committed over the past few decades. Please forgive me for the fact that I have diligently delivered batch after batch of new weapons to the army for so many years…”

It was obviously a closed room where he could only hear his own heavy breathing, but in his ears, he seemed to hear the old man Wang Weiming using a flattering and fearful tone to please the tyrant Clarice and pouring dirty water on him without leaving any stone unturned.

Clarice… this guy Clarice definitely disliked him early on. If this could completely knock him down, he would definitely choose to believe in Wang Weiming, who can bring him more benefits, instead of sticking to some bullshit judicial justice!

Bisnar shook his head hard and looked fixedly at Ji Mingjiang, who still appeared calm as if he didn’t see what was happening next to him. This mermaid seemed to be much more law-abiding than Clarice, and although he has no real power compared to Clarice, the Primary Beastmen Protection Center that stands by his side isn’t completely useless…

Bisnar, whose mind was now in chaos, completely forgot that this law-abiding mermaid in his eyes almost strangled him to death with a whip just now.

“You have to guarantee that you will absolutely not let this dog, Wang Weiming, go back to the institute peacefully and continue to be the director.”

Listening to Bisnar’s gritted words, Ji Mingjiang raised the corners of his mouth and nodded slightly.

Bisnar, who was watching his movements closely, swallowed and said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll confess…”
