Chapter 1018 Torture
He Hai knew that he was doomed, and he had thought about committing suicide, so that he could avoid the torture of Sima Shi. But then he thought that Sima Yi died in Bai Lingjun's room. If he had no evidence of his death, it would be impossible to cleanse Bai Lingjun's suspicion, so he could not die. Only when he was alive, insisted that Sima Yi was killed by him, so that he could ensure that Bai Lingjun was safe and sound.
Mrs. Bai was as kind as a mountain to him. From the moment He Hai decided to bear the blame, he had already given up his life and prepared to repay Mrs. Bai's kindness with death.
So He Hai seemed to be at the end of his life, but in fact he took the initiative to fall into the trap.
After being captured, He Hai did not hide it and admitted that Sima Yi was killed by him and Bai Lingjun was also stabbed by him. As for the motive for the assassination, he was bullied because he was resentful to Sima Yi, so he took the assassination.
Zhong Hui naturally sneered at this reason. What a high-ranking and powerful person Sima Yi is? Will he bully you a low-ranking servant? Even if he is bullied, it is just the actions of those servants who are above him. It has nothing to do with Sima Yi. If he really has resentment, he should take revenge on those who bully him. How brave does it take to kill the head of the family?
What's more, if He Hai was just a low-level servant, then he would not even have the chance to contact Sima Yi, so how could he know about Sima Yi's return home today? You must know that Sima Yi's idea of returning home was only a temporary decision by him, including the sects in the Sima Mansion, and how could he, a small servant, know?
Of course, Zhong Hui would not believe such a reason for his weak feet, but he did not rush to interrogate it. Instead, he ordered someone to carefully compare the black suit and confirmed that it was undoubtedly He Hai had worn it. He also found some blood on He Hai's hands. It is estimated that he had not had time to wash his hands after throwing away the dagger.
It seems that He Hai is the murderer of Sima Yi, but the motives and reasons for the crime are too ridiculous. Not to mention Zhong Hui, I am afraid that even a ten-year-old child can't hide it.
Zhong Hui sneered: "It seems that if you don't move the Great Suppression, you won't admit it. Come and serve the Great Suppression!"
Jia Chong said on the side: "Brother Shiji, let me leave this assassin to someone. Even if he is made of copper-burned iron, he will definitely ask him to speak today."
When Zhong Hui heard this, he nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll be a blessing in my brother Gonglu."
Jia Chong smiled sinisterly. He naturally had his own means to deal with such hard-core people. Anyway, no matter who falls into his hands, he will have to take off even if he doesn't die.
Sure enough, the eighteen tortures that Jia Chong had prepared only went to five or six times, and He Hai couldn't stand it anymore. He admitted that he was a Bingzhou master. A few years ago, he was bribed by Bingzhou and sold out the information of Sima's Mansion. This time, he was ordered by Bingzhou to take advantage of Sima Yi's opportunity to assassinate Sima Yi.
What He Hai confessed was not much different from what Zhong Hui and Jia Chong and the others speculated. He Hai dared to assassinate Sima Yi so boldly and recklessly, and someone must have instructed him behind it. Given the current hostile relationship between the Sima family and Bingzhou, it is not uncommon for Bingzhou to send assassins to assassinate Sima Yi.
Zhong Hui also conducted a detailed investigation of He Hai's background. He Hai was born in Sima's Mansion. His ancestors were Sima's family slaves for generations. He has a relatively low status. About three years ago, He Hai's mother fell seriously ill. He Hai borrowed money everywhere but failed. However, according to the memories of the people around him, He Hai suddenly had money shortly afterwards and invited the most famous doctor in Luoyang City to treat his mother. Later, after his mother died, He Hai also consumed a large sum of money and bought a cemetery and a good coffin for his mother outside the city, and buried his mother.
This matter was widely spread among the servants of Sima's Mansion, but He Hai kept his mouth shut and no one knew where He Hai's money came from.
Now that these two sides meet, it will undoubtedly prove that He Hai was at that time and obtained a lot of money.
Although the truth was revealed, Jia Chong did not stop his torture. He Hai explained his identity as a true example. However, since a premeditated and organized assassination by the Bingzhou spy, it is impossible for He Hai to be the only one involved in the matter. Who is his boss and how many accomplices in the Sima Mansion are all the content that Jia Chong will question next.
But He Hai had no way to confess. He had already been talking nonsense when he admitted that he was a spy in Bingzhou. The money he had given to him secretly by Bai Lingjun, not by Bingzhou. If he assassinated Sima Yi's accomplice, then there was only Bai Lingjun, and this was something He Hai could not admit to.
He Hai refused to admit it in advance, and deliberately suffered torture before admitting that he was a spy in Bingzhou. It was also a trick he had thought of in advance, so that it would be more realistic. However, Jia Chong refused to give up and insisted on digging out He Hai's accomplices, so he continued to use torture. He Hai had no supply, so he could only grit his teeth and endure the heavy punishment.
After eighteen tortures, He Hai was already exhausted, as if he had been taken out of blood, his limbs were broken, like a pile of mud that could not even get up. His whole life was as if he could die at any time.
Jia Chong was a little angry. You must know that ordinary people could not bear the tortures he had at all, but he didn't expect that He Hai was so tough that he would rather die than reveal his accomplice. If he continued to fight, he would probably die. Jia Chong was helpless.
Zhong Hui believed that what He Hai confessed might be the truth. In order to prevent leaks, most spy organizations use a single-line contact method, which means that He Hai cannot know whether there are other spies in Sima's mansion.
As for He Hai's launch, it was not in Sima's mansion. He just contacted He Hai through a secret way and conveyed instructions to He Hai. Now that He Hai has an accident, he will definitely have escaped after he goes online. It will be difficult for him to pursue him again.
The case was almost closed after the trial. Sima Shi had sent someone to urge him. Zhong Hui discussed with Jia Chong, sorted out the file, and let the people below drag He Hai like a dead dog to meet Sima Shi.
