Paranormal incident investigation notes
Chapter 239 I don’t want to, I can’t
This situation was slightly beyond the expectations of Lu Ming and others.
Lu Ming subconsciously looked at the pharmacist standing next to him.
The pharmacist stepped forward, looked at the body monitoring data of the senior executive of the Destiny Organization, then opened his eyelids and shined a flashlight into his eyes, his voice filled with doubts.
"He...he's still alive. Just passed out."
"Fainted? What caused it?"
The pharmacist was a little nervous and hurriedly judged: "It's not the effect of foreign drugs."
Zhang Dingshan pondered for a moment and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. Just continue monitoring."
Several people waited for a while again. About three or four hours later, the doctor responsible for monitoring physical signs reported the latest situation.
"He's awake. But...he's unconscious."
"Um?"
When several people entered the ward, they saw that the former senior executive of the Destiny Organization had opened his eyes at this moment. But his eyes seemed unfocused. He just opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling blankly, without any reaction from his body. Several doctors were sweating profusely and conducting various examinations on him.
After a moment, the final conclusion emerged.
"He...has undergone some changes in his brain that were not expected before. Now he is already in a vegetative state. I'm afraid there is no hope of recovery in the future."
Zhang Dingshan frowned.
Vegetative state? Some unexpected changes in the brain?
Lu Ming whispered: "Captain, He Wei, you should still remember the reaction of the clones in the doomsday base after they were injected with veritaserum in the 'Prophecy' case."
After we invaded the Doomsday Base, we were unable to capture a large number of internal staff. They originally expected to interrogate them to obtain more information about the doomsday base. After the interrogation failed, they went straight to the Veritaserum.
But after receiving the injection, those people turned directly into idiots and vegetative states.
This situation is somewhat similar to this moment.
Maybe... this time, it will be the same as that time?
However, those clones did not have the "function" to betray their masters when they were first created. Based on this, under the collision of his own loyalty and the medicine, he will become an idiot. But at this moment, this former senior executive of the Destiny Organization should definitely not have such high loyalty.
The pharmacist and doctors left the ward quietly.
"What I want to know is, does he not want to tell the secret about the God of Destiny, or...can't tell it?"
The two may look the same, but they are anything but. Among the two, one is because of oneself, and the other is because of some pressure from the outside world.
"It's just that I can't say it anymore." He Wei glanced at the senior executive of the original destiny organization who had turned into a vegetative state with some disdain, and said: "For a person like him, I can't find any reason why he doesn't want to say it."
In the previous interrogation, he had explained everything he could and could not say. In order to survive and save one life, he even agreed to participate in the succession ceremony and become the new leader of the Destiny Organization.
Is there any reason why such a person would rather risk the punishment of death and "not want to tell" a certain secret?
Lu Ming shook his head: "Not necessarily. Maybe the secret about the God of Destiny means something that in his opinion is countless times more important than his own life. So, in order to keep this secret, he can He could die without hesitation, and he could resist the power of Veritaserum until he turned into an idiot without even revealing the secret."
It is impossible for human willpower to resist the power of medicine. However, if a person's willpower is strong enough, reason may collapse before the will collapse. This resulted in the current situation.
"There's no difference between the two situations, right? The secret won't be revealed anyway."
"have difference."
Lu Ming once again denied He Wei's statement: "This means two different investigation paths. I think this matter needs to be verified and confirmed."
He looked at Zhang Dingshan, who thought for a moment, nodded, and agreed with Lu Ming.
"There's another thing that needs to be verified as well."
Zhang Dingshan pondered and added: "I want to know, through the succession ceremony, whether the new leader really knows some secret about the God of Destiny."
Lu Ming was startled, and then suddenly realized that he had missed this possibility.
Before that, with the information recorded in the Destiny Organization's classics, the confessions of other senior executives, the suicide of the original leader of the Destiny Organization, and the transformation of this senior executive into an idiot at this moment, these things made me subconsciously aware of The idea that "through the succession ceremony, these people must have known the secret, and chose to commit suicide because they wanted to keep the secret."
But is this necessarily the truth?
uncertain!
Is it possible that, in fact, there is no secret at all, and that the successor's suicide was just due to some other reasons?
Perhaps sacrificing a pregnant woman to a pregnant animal would make the fetus have bad luck after birth. The successor leader will single-mindedly seek death after being coerced. The two are basically the same thing. They are just different working modes of the "machine" of the sarcophagus? In fact, there is no secret at all?
"There is definitely a possibility."
So now, it must be verified again.
"I think we can change the method of verification this time. This time, we can declare in advance that we will never force you. Whether you confess or not depends entirely on your own volition."
He Wei nodded: "Okay. They don't know our plan anyway. When the time comes, they will just confess honestly. If they refuse to confess, if we resort to tricks then, will he still be able to bite me? Humph."
Zhang Dingshan shook his head: "No. We need to decide this matter in advance. If we say we won't force it, we will never force it."
He Wei was surprised: "Are you really going to let them go like that?"
Lu Ming said: "We must first eliminate the possible impact of this aspect."
Once one's side is truly determined, even if the successor leader does not confess, one's side will not force it. Then, if the successor leader still chooses to commit suicide, the possibility of "committing suicide to keep the secret" can be ruled out. However, if we are pretending not to be coercive on the surface but are determined to deceive secretly, then if the successor leader still commits suicide, how can we determine the cause?
Although generally speaking, it is impossible for the successor leader to know what his side is planning, but it is possible that the sarcophagus has some special ability and can be known in some incredible way.
If you want to be more prudent, you still have to keep your word. If we say no force, we will never force it.
He Wei said angrily: "I let him take advantage."
After our discussion was settled, ten more senior officials of the original destiny organization who had cooperated well recently were summoned to the three of them.
This time, the members of the Second Action Team truly made full disclosure and did not hide the outcome and fate of the previous senior executive of the Destiny Organization who succeeded him as the leader. After hearing that he had turned into a vegetative state due to resisting interrogation, the ten summoned senior officials all showed fear on their faces.
"That's what it is. That's what it is."
He Wei said coldly: "This time, we plan to find another person to hold a succession ceremony and become the leader."
Her sharp eyes swept across the ten people in front of her one by one. Everyone she saw lowered their heads, and no one dared to look at her.
"This time, if you cooperate, you will be awarded a first-class meritorious service. I don't need to say more about how beneficial a first-class meritorious service will be to your subsequent interrogation."
First-class meritorious service does not guarantee that the death penalty will never be imposed, but it can greatly reduce the probability of the death penalty.
In the past, this was a perfect opportunity that everyone would compete for. But now, you and I look at each other, but no one dares to respond.
He Wei snorted: "This time, we promise that after the succession ceremony is completed and you become the new leader, we will never use forced interrogation. If you are not willing to confess, then don't confess. We will not force you. But this one It will be gone once you have achieved meritorious service. How you choose is entirely up to you."
After hearing this, there was a slight commotion among the ten people. After a moment, a former senior executive plucked up the courage and asked, "What if you don't keep your word?"
Several senior executives looked at He Wei nervously and expectantly.
He Wei snorted again: "Do you really think you are an important person? You like to explain but you don't! If you don't explain, someone else will come again. Why force you? Anyway, without this first-class meritorious service, the final sentence will be a death sentence. What good will it do me to force you to death in advance?"
He Wei made an angry sound, and the ten former senior executives thought about it for a while, but they all breathed a sigh of relief.
They are bad people, but not fools. This truth can be understood by just thinking about it.
"Start with you. Tell me, are you willing?"
He Wei pointed at the person on the far right. The man hesitated for a moment and said in a trembling voice: "I, I think..."
He Wei didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted directly: "Don't want to? Okay, take it away! Are you willing to be next?"
Two guards came over, one on the left and one on the right, grabbing the person on the far right and walking out. The man struggled instantly: "No, no, no, I do, I do! I do!"
He Wei turned a deaf ear and ignored him. The second person pointed by He Wei was all excited and immediately said continuously: "I do, I do!"
"Okay, it's up to you. Take everyone else away!"
There were eight people left, and He Wei didn't even ask. At this moment, she gave the order, and more than a dozen guards came over immediately. Two of them controlled one, and they took him away by force.
"Sheriff, I'm willing too! You haven't asked me yet!"
"Choose me, Sheriff. I promise to cooperate! Don't pull me!"
He Wei still ignored them and allowed them to be pulled away. The lucky one who was selected looked at his "colleagues" who were forcibly taken away, with a face filled with joy.
Since there is no force, there should be no risk in this cooperation, and the guarantee can temporarily save your life. But once something changes, such as being able to tell the secret, it will immediately be a first-class meritorious service. No matter where you look at it, it's a sure-fire deal.
At this moment, the interrogation room and the corridor were filled with the cries and howls of the former senior executives being dragged away, which sounded terrible.
Zhang Dingshan and Lu Ming only watched coldly and did not interfere at all.
The three of them have never forgotten the evil these people have done. How many innocent fetuses and innocent pregnant women died tragically because of the evil deeds of these people. Unless death, nothing can atone for their sins. Now let them suffer some rough treatment and recoup some interest.
"Take it away and start."
The selected former senior executive was brought to the sanctuary of the Destiny Organization. The goddess and the members of the destiny organization who played the role of ritual reciters were also in place. In a slightly solemn atmosphere, the succession ceremony of the leader began again.
This time, He Wei was not as vigilant as last time to prevent the new leader from committing suicide. Because this time we have made it clear that we will never force anything.
After a period of time, with the cry of "ceremony completed" from the sacrificial reciter, the succession ceremony came to an end. The new leader slowly stood up, his face seemed to be in a trance.
He did not commit suicide. There was no sign of suicide at all.
He was brought to Zhang Dingshan and the others by two guards.
He Wei looked at him condescendingly.
"Have you received a divine revelation?"
"No."
"you are lying."
Zhang Dingshan exposed him unceremoniously. He Wei's eyes became more and more fierce.
He lowered his head and remained silent. No excuses, no resistance.
"That's it."
He Wei nodded: "Now, tell me what divine enlightenment is."
He remained silent.
Lu Ming frowned: "If you can't say it, then tell me, why? Is it because you don't want to say it, or because you can't say it?"
Not getting into what that secret actually is. Just asking why you can't tell us. Lu Ming felt that this was finally okay, right?
But the former senior executive remained silent.
He Wei said unceremoniously: "We won't force you, but if you refuse to cooperate, your first-class meritorious service will be gone. You know what the consequences will be."
This time, he finally reacted. He nodded slightly: "I know."
He Wei's eyes sharpened and she made a decision in her heart.
She wanted to deceive this man, for example, pretending to inject him with truth serum or something. Zhang Dingshan had already understood her thoughts, shook his head and stopped him.
This doesn't make sense.
If this man could explain, he would have done so long ago. He couldn't explain, so if he was forced to do so, there would be no other possibility except forcing him to death.
"take away!"
He was taken away by two guards. In the sanctuary, Lu Ming was thoughtful.
"At least now it can be confirmed that the divine revelation and the secret do exist. And...after becoming the leader of the cult, he seems to have maintained his sanity."
This means that the possibility that the reason for refusing to confess is that he does not want to confess, rather than being unable to confess, is greatly increased.
I'm kindly asking for support by counting votes...
