The warden who guards the witches

A quarter of an hour later, in the meeting room.

Aiden sat across an iron table from Susan, the maid brought by the prison guard.

"This seems a little different from what I imagined..." Susan hesitated for a while and said, "Why does it feel like they are interrogating me?"

"Prisoner." Aiden raised his hand and pointed at Susan, then pointed at himself, "Police. Two people like this 'chatting alone' is most likely an interrogation."

"I thought you would entertain me at least..." Susan sighed, "a cup of tea or something."

"It would be better to move a sofa for you to sit on, and then a plate of snacks, and then we can talk about the signature dishes of the Queen's Restaurant together?" Aiden smiled, "Generally, I only do this when I ask prisoners to help me do something."

"Will you also ask prisoners to help me do something?" Susan was stunned.

"Make the best use of people and things." Aiden answered calmly.

"Forget it, it's better like this, it's better than seeing a bed here when you come in." Susan joked, then looked at the corner, "But what is that?"

In the corner stood a metal statue with an extremely smooth surface, standing upright like a soldier on guard.

"If you don't do anything out of the ordinary to me, it's just an ordinary craft." Aiden didn't even look at the amalgam golem.

"Oh, I..." Susan was about to speak, but suddenly stopped.

At this moment, an order suddenly appeared in her mind: "No lying."

Susan was stunned by this order.

"What?" Aiden asked knowingly.

In order to interrogate more efficiently, he wrote an order "No lying" on the "Wordless Code".

Of course, because of the characteristics of the "Wordless Code", he couldn't lie now, but the other party might not be aware of this.

However, he did not dare to take too many risks in this matter, so he did not write down the rule that forced the other party to answer all questions. If the other party found that this rule was effective for both parties, they could directly extract a lot of information from him.

Susan tried to speak, but then found that she could not open her mouth, and her throat could not make any sound. The rules written in the "Wordless Code" would simply restrict individuals in the field without listing penalties.

"Are you ready to lie? Your next line should be something like "How can I do anything extraordinary?" Very good, you are not an ordinary person. It seems that it is a waste of talent to lock you up in the ordinary area..." Aiden narrowed his eyes and said, "You have special powers that ordinary people don't have, right?"

Aiden vaguely felt this when he saw Susan on the playground.

That talk show... or should I say Susan herself, has an unusual appeal. When talking to Susan, Aiden also found it difficult to take his eyes off Susan's expressive face - not that she is so beautiful, strictly speaking, she actually has a face that can't be more ordinary, but Aiden just feels that she is inexplicably conspicuous.

This made Aiden feel uneasy. In fact, similar feelings have appeared in him many times. When he saw the messy workshops and canteens that had not been cleaned up, when he saw the stains on the white walls, when he saw the prisoners were not lined up neatly... This psychological discomfort appeared more and more frequently.

Now thinking back, Aiden felt that he should have begun to be affected by the "order" god's words - he began to feel more sensitive to many things that he felt were not regular and reasonable.

This influence has both advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, he subconsciously paid attention to some trivial things that he didn't need to care about, and there were some signs of obsessive-compulsive disorder. But on the other hand, his "intuition" to judge whether things are normal has become much more accurate.

In the past, when Chichimora used his ability to participate in the Great Witch Gathering, he also relied on this "intuition" to quickly feel that he had missed someone.

When he saw Susan Finger, he also had a similar feeling - this time he simply believed in "intuition".

Susan was still thinking about the answer, and the order "No lying" immediately rang in her mind again.

But she soon realized how to deal with it, and asked Aiden in return: "This, it's the warden-"

"Now I'm asking you!" Aiden cut off the other party's question in time. When he couldn't lie, he had to firmly control the right to speak.

"No lying" does not mean that you can only be honest and frank. Silence or asking questions in reverse are both feasible.

But some questions are raised, and you can actually hear the answer without answering-although it is not 100% certain, it at least means that the possibility is very high.

Just like the question raised by Aiden, Susan did not deny it directly, which is basically equivalent to admitting-that is, Susan Finger has special abilities that ordinary people don't have.

"Did you go to prison on purpose?" Aiden continued to confirm with Susan.

"..." Susan remained silent and did not answer.

"Sure enough, it was intentional." Aiden got the answer from this, and then continued to ask, "A week ago, I was followed outside. Is it related to you?"

After being followed once at the "Phantom Moon" jewelry store, there has been no follow-up to this matter. Now that a weirdo has taken the initiative to go to jail, Aiden thinks that the possibility of the two being related is very high.

"..." Susan still did not answer.

It is related - Aiden made a judgment in his heart, and then continued to ask: "You came to the prison to approach me, are you going to harm me?"

"..."Susan remained silent.

Aiden became alert and made a gesture.

The amalgam golem in the corner slowly moved towards Susan. Susan heard the movement, turned her head and looked at the moving "craft", and subconsciously held her breath.

"Don't get me wrong! I don't intend to harm you." She quickly gave an answer, "Really!"

Aiden made another stop gesture, and the amalgam golem stopped behind Susan.

Under the provisions of the "Wordless Code", Susan could not lie. Susan did not intend to harm him - just like the person who followed him at that time.

"The person who followed me that day..." Aiden asked.

This time Susan confessed before he finished asking: "It was me."

"Who are you and what is your purpose? Tell me everything clearly." Aiden asked.

"I hope to talk about these things in a better place." Susan suddenly started to bargain.

"Answer the question first."

"Then I'll answer the previous question first. Actually, you may have guessed it..." Susan smiled, "Yes, I am Sophie Carter."
