Chapter 1494: Interrogation of Vermouth
Faced with many familiar or unfamiliar faces, Vermouth's face was not afraid at all, but instead had a relaxed smile.
"Everyone is here..."
"Am I so important?"
Kuroda Heibei stepped forward, straightened his posture, and said solemnly in a very official tone: "First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Kuroda Heibei, and I am the behind-the-scenes director of the Security Planning Division of the Security Bureau of the National Police Agency of Japan."
"Vermouth, there is only one way in front of you now, that is, you turn into a tainted witness and tell all the information you know. Within my authority, I can at least strive for you to be exempted from the death penalty."
Common interrogation methods such as intimidation, black face and white face, or prisoner's dilemma are naturally useless for Vermouth, and there is no need to waste time trying.
So Kuroda Heibei directly explained the pros and cons without any unnecessary routines.
With the crimes Vermouth has committed so far, it is already a great tolerance to be able to strive for exemption from the death penalty.
Of course, if there are greater meritorious performances in the future, it can also be discussed as appropriate.
But Vermouth just glanced at Kuroda Heibei and didn't respond. Instead, she looked directly at Furuya Rei, Mizunashi Rena and Curacao standing behind him.
"Curaçao, it seems that Rum's decision to spare your life was a wrong one..."
"Are you trying to avenge me who once wanted to kill you? That's why you chose to conceal the undercover identities of Bourbon and Kiel on the list and cooperate with the police?"
When Vermouth saw Curacao, Bourbon and Kiel standing on the side of the police, she immediately understood the process of Curacao's betrayal.
Because Curacao was a talent that the organization had cultivated for a long time, she could only have betrayed the organization in the recent undercover list incident.
There was a hint of contemptuous sarcasm in Vermouth's eyes. In her opinion, Curacao's betrayal was just out of revenge.
However, Curacao's answer surprised her.
"I want to get out of the darkness myself, it has nothing to do with you."
"..."
Vermouth was silent for a few seconds, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Get out of the darkness?"
"Oh, it's ridiculous, Rum actually cultivated a confidant who wants to get out of the darkness."
"I don't know what that arrogant guy will think when this matter is reported back to the organization..."
Just when Vermouth had a hint of disdain on her lips, Qin Zhibo stepped forward and interrupted her mumbling.
"Rum is dead..."
"I saw him die with my own eyes."
Vermouth looked at Qin Zhibo with a hint of surprise in her eyes, and murmured, "You are the famous detective..."
Although she didn't care about any detectives except her godson, she could still see some of them in Tokyo's newspapers and news.
"It's genuine."
Qin Zhibo took out a wrinkled human skin mask from his pocket, "But I have another identity, and I can tell you now."
When Qin Zhibo put the human skin mask on his face, Vermouth's expression was first startled, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
"You are... Michael!"
"Also genuine."
Qin Zhibo took off the human skin mask, and after Vermouth calmed down a little, he continued: "It seems that my acting skills are good, and I successfully deceived you, a big star who won an Oscar."
"After everything is over, should I also consider debuting as an actor?"
Qin Zhibo said this in a joking tone, which did not put too much pressure on Vermouth.
But invisibly, he used the fact that he had deceived her, a master of disguise, to put psychological pressure on her, so that she could no longer maintain her confident spirit and believe that she could easily deal with the interrogation.
And the situation was exactly as Qin Zhibo expected. When Vermouth learned that Qin Zhibo was her "archenemy" Michael, her eyes became slightly flickering, and the shadows of the past flashed back, and her brain fell into self-doubt.
Seeing this, Kuroda Heibei, Furuya Ling and others beside him suddenly had a hint of excitement in their eyes.
Taking advantage of this momentum to conduct an interrogation, maybe they can really break through Vermouth's psychological defenses in one fell swoop.
But at this moment, Qin Zhibo suddenly turned around, without asking anything, and chose to leave directly.
"Let's go."
Others looked at Qin Zhibo who was leaving, showing puzzled expressions, but still followed him to leave.
After leaving the infirmary, facing the puzzlement of everyone, Qin Zhibo told the reason why he did not interrogate directly.
"It is impossible to break through Vermouth like treating ordinary criminals. She must have practiced many common interrogation methods in her mind countless times."
"The only way to break through her is to make her stop working for the organization wholeheartedly."
"As for this method, I have thought of it..."
"But before that, let her put down her arrogance and the strong filter of the organization, and use the information she doesn't know to whet her appetite."
Qin Zhibo didn't expect that he could convince Vermouth to abandon the dark and join the light.
The only ones who could do it were Conan and Mao Lilan.
Since the New York incident last year, Vermouth has always had an inexplicable feeling for Conan and Mao Lilan, similar to the godmother to the godchildren.
However, even with this special feeling, Qin Zhibo is not sure how far Vermouth can go.
So he first breaks her arrogance and makes her believe that if she abandons the dark and joins the light, the Justice League will win and the Black Organization will lose.
No matter how strong a person looks, he is ultimately an animal driven by interests.
The persuasion of her children, the victory of justice and the conditions for commutation of sentence should be enough to impress her.
"Okay, let's go meet another member of the organization next..."
...
In the dim confinement room, Binga's hands were handcuffed behind the chair, but his thin face still had a rebellious expression.
"Hehe, you won't get any information from me..."
Binga's mouth corners were raised wickedly, facing the several figures standing in the backlight of the light source, there was no fear in his eyes.
The Justice League currently does not have much information about Binga.
According to Curacao, Binga is also a member of the organization promoted by Rum. He is an ambitious man who has tried many times to replace himself as Rum's confidant.
Of course, since Curacao has a rare ability to remember everything he sees, Binga's path to power is not so smooth. He has always been below himself for so many years and is considered Rum's second confidant.
Therefore, Binga theoretically hated Curacao who stood in his way to rise.
And the other person he hated was Gin who was also higher in status than him.
"Binga."
In the dark confinement room, when Binga was imprisoned and had an arrogant look on his face, a slender figure walked in front of him.
