Hearing Liu Zhimo"s words, w.a.n.g Yang looked up at him and said mockingly, "Since He Tao said everything, why did you ask me?" He knew the same as He Tao, why ask him again?Didn"t he feel like wasting his time?
Liu Zhimo replied calmly, "This is the procedure for handling a case, I have to ask." He paused, "However, the difference between saying it and not saying it, is too big." The reason he was so patient in splitting the four of them apart was because he wanted to find some clues from them.
w.a.n.g Yang looked at Liu Zhimo quietly, and asked Liu Zhimo what benefits did he give him? Let him tell everything.
Since He Tao did not receive any punishment, then there were benefits.
The benefit was simple: he would plead for mercy on behalf of the emperor and relieve He Tao of his crimes, so as to not implicate his family members.
w.a.n.g Yang looked at Liu Zhimo with ridicule in his eyes, "Are you really that kind?" Why was he so suspicious?
He really did not believe that Liu Zhimo would be that magnanimous, before, they even wanted to kill him, so how could he continue to plead for mercy on behalf of the Emperor?
If he did not ask the Emperor to increase their punishment, he would be an Amitabha.
Who would expect him to plead for them?
Being doubted by w.a.n.g Yang, Liu Zhimo was not angry, but he still said with a smile, "You can choose to not believe me." He would not explain to those who questioned him whether it was true or false.
It would be a waste of time to explain things to such a person, so he might as well go and interrogate the next person.
"Men, bring them down." He didn"t want to tell the truth, so he didn"t want to waste any more time.
"Wait, wait …" Seeing such a resolute att.i.tude from Liu Zhimo, w.a.n.g Yang panicked a little in his heart, "You … Will you really plead with the Emperor for us? You won"t lie to us, right? "
He was afraid that Liu Zhimo would turn hostile after he told them everything.
"I, Liu Zhimo, will do as I say." Liu Zhimo nodded and said, "Based on my father"s reputation, I will definitely not lie to you."
Seeing that Liu Zhimo had sworn, w.a.n.g Yang"s guard down a little. He looked at Liu Zhimo and asked him what he wanted to know.
Liu Zhimo immediately said, everything.
He wanted to know everything.
w.a.n.g Yang clenched his fists and sighed heavily. Then, he lowered his head and spoke with a complicated expression.
He didn"t expect that one day, he would fall on a young boy that hadn"t even grown hair yet. It really made him sigh endlessly.
If someone had said before that he would fall on a young man, he would definitely call that person "father" or "mother". But now, he had to admit that there were many talents and talents that couldn"t be underestimated.
After this incident, he was keenly aware that he couldn"t underestimate anyone.
They had indeed underestimated Liu Zhimo, which was why they suffered so miserably.
After Liu Zhimo finished listening to what w.a.n.g Yang had to say, did he have any other matters? I hope he doesn"t have to hide anything and tell me everything, or else he won"t be able to help me.
w.a.n.g Yang"s eyes bulged as he spoke. He had told them everything he knew and did not hide anything, telling Liu Zhimo not to wrongly accuse him.
He was also someone who valued his own life. If he knew that He Tao had told him about it, how could he continue to hide it?
If he continued to hide it and implicate his family, then where would he go to cry?
Observing w.a.n.g Yang"s sincere expression, Liu Zhimo nodded and asked Liu Family soldiers to bring w.a.n.g Yang down.
Before he left, w.a.n.g Yang asked Liu Zhimo one more time, would he really plead for mercy on behalf of the Emperor?
Liu Zhimo nodded his head heavily, and said with a stern expression, Of course.
w.a.n.g Yang looked at Liu Zhimo deeply, turned his head and followed Liu Family soldiers.
He would only trust Liu Zhimo this once. If he lied to him, even as a ghost, he wouldn"t let him go.
"Where are you taking me?" Seeing that it was not the way he came, w.a.n.g Yang asked Liu Family soldiers cautiously, could it be that he was killed?
Could it be that He Tao was also killed?
If so, what should he do?
Liu Family soldiers looked at w.a.n.g Yang with disdain. He was a.s.sured that w.a.n.g Yang would not kill him.
w.a.n.g Yang snorted, "You don"t know the face of others, and you don"t know the heart of others. Who knows what you are thinking?" He wasn"t a worm in his stomach, so how could he know what he was thinking?
"You think it"s dirty to kill you." Liu Family soldiers replied, "Go in." He opened the door and pushed w.a.n.g Yang in.
w.a.n.g Yang was pushed until he staggered and almost fell to the ground. He straightened his body, opened his mouth and was about to curse loudly, but when he saw He Tao, he automatically turned silent.
"He Tao, why are you here?"
"You came too?"
w.a.n.g Yang smiled bitterly as he walked over to He Tao"s side and sat down. He worriedly said, "Liu Zhimo wouldn"t want to kill us right?"
Fourth Uncle He shook his head, saying that Liu Zhimo was not that kind of person.
He knew that Liu Zhimo was not one to break his promise, he believed that he would do what he said.
Hearing that, w.a.n.g Yang snorted, saying, why do you trust him so much?
He Tao looked at w.a.n.g Yang and said, other than trusting him, what else do we have?
Since there was no other way, he might as well try to trust Liu Zhimo.
What if they made the right bet!
w.a.n.g Yang was silent for a while, before asking He Tao why he wanted to tell him the truth.
He had thought that of the four, He Tao was the one who would endure the most, the one who would never speak the truth the most.
He Tao was the first to say it out loud, forcing him to say it out loud.
Some people said that if someone didn"t say anything, the one that would suffer would be the one that wouldn"t say anything. He wouldn"t be that person.
"Didn"t you already know? Didn"t you make the same choice as me? " Why else? Wasn"t it just for the sake of his family?
It was one thing for him to die, but it was another to end this once and for all.
But he couldn"t watch his family die and bear the consequences of his crimes.
They were innocent to begin with and should not have suffered like this.
w.a.n.g Yang leaned against the wall, raised his head, and let out a large sigh. He said with a bitter smile, "That"s right, if it wasn"t for my family, how could it be …" "Liu Zhimo"s shrewdness is truly unfathomable. Back then, we underestimated him, which is why we fell so ruthlessly." Being carried on the body of a young man made him extremely unhappy.
However, there was nothing to be done about it now. If he failed, that would be the end of it.
To see if Liu Zhimo would keep his promise and lessen their guilt.
"The truth tells us not to underestimate anyone. Otherwise, we won"t even know how we died." Fourth Uncle He said with a calm expression. After experiencing many mental forays, he was already able to calmly accept this.
They had no choice but to admit their age.
w.a.n.g Yang sighed again, "He Tao, do you think that Liu Zhimo will really keep his promise? "When I think back, my heart is in turmoil. I don"t feel good about it." If Liu Zhimo did not keep his promise, there was nothing they could do about it.
"I hope..."
Fourth Uncle He slightly frowned, even if he did not trust Liu Zhimo, he had no other choice.
They were at the end of their tether.
w.a.n.g Yang turned his head to the side to look at Fourth Uncle He, to lower his voice, and whispered, haven"t you thought that Master would come to save us?
Hearing that, Fourth Uncle He turned and looked straight into w.a.n.g Yang"s eyes, "How can you still be so naive to such an extent?" His master had come long ago, how could he wait until now?
Even if they were unwilling to believe it, they had to admit that they were the abandoned sons of their master.
He wouldn"t waste any more time on those abandoned b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.
If he had continued to wait for him to come save her, he would have become a pile of dirt long ago.
"You … I"m not naive. " He was not naïve at all, and had long guessed Master"s intentions. It was because he was a little hurt in his heart, that he asked He Tao this question.
From the moment he entered the prison, he had been under the illusion that the Lord would send someone to rescue him. After a day and night, he slowly became disappointed and gradually realized the situation he was in.
He became an unusable b.a.s.t.a.r.d, saying in his heart that it was false not to be sad.
No matter who it was, no one wanted to be an outcast that wasn"t reused by the organization.
"Since you are not naive, don"t ask these idiotic questions. You must remember, the so called "master" will not send people to save us. What we can do is to save ourselves."
w.a.n.g Yang"s fiery temper was once again ignited, and he began to retaliate against Fourth Uncle He.
When Zhao He entered the room, what he saw was a scene like this. He frowned and asked, what were they arguing about?
At this point, what was there to argue about? Shouldn"t they work together? Why would he still have the mood to quarrel?
w.a.n.g Yang and He Fourth Uncle turned to look at Zhao He. After a moment of silence, they both said at the same time, "You"re here."
Zhao He smiled bitterly and said, Yes, I"m here.
He walked with heavy steps to sit between w.a.n.g Yang and Fourth Uncle He.
He looked at the door with a calm expression and said in a low voice, "I told you the truth."
After knowing what He Tao had to say to w.a.n.g Yang, he did not insist and told Liu Zhimo everything he knew.
As for what the result would be, he could only resign himself to fate.
"When I saw you walk in, I knew it." Fourth Uncle patted Zhao He"s shoulder, smiling as he comforted him, "Don"t worry about the guilt of those who do not care about us, think about your family too much." The most innocent were their family members.
They did not know what they were doing, but they were implicated.
"Yes, I know." Zhao He pulled at his hair and sighed deeply, "How did we, who were once in high spirits, end up in such a state?"
For so many years, they had been calling the shots in the Ninghua County, and no one dared to do anything to them.
Perhaps this was a punishment the heavens had given them for not looking at it properly.
"It"s our fault for underestimating Liu Zhimo and not realizing his terror." Fourth Uncle He couldn"t help but let out a sigh. He had never thought that he would fall on a youth, "If you are alive, leave this place. From now on, you must not underestimate anyone."
Zhao He and w.a.n.g Yang nodded in agreement.
He felt that Fourth Uncle He was right.
