Chapter 1257: Investigate to the End (7)
No one listened to Qi Haoran’s explanation. Just like that, the prisoners were escorted back to the prison.
Lord Bai’s subordinate whispered, "Lord, should we strike while the iron is hot?"
Anyone with eyes could tell that those people had loosened up. This was a phenomenon that had never happened before.
Although Lord Bai was also anxious, he had interrogated many criminals and knew that it was better to be quiet than to take action now. He still needed to give them some time to think.
Seeing that Queen Consort Rong and King Rong had already gotten into the carriage and were about to leave, Lord Bai immediately chased after them and said, "Your Highness, wait a moment. What do you think we should do next to pry their mouths open?"
"Shouldn’t you be better at this?" Mu Yangling was puzzled. "I’m not good at this."
"...Your Highness is too modest. You’ve softened their attitudes just by bringing them around the streets..."
"Lord Bai." Qi Haoran stuck his head out from behind Mu Yangling and interrupted him. "She is indeed not good at interrogation."
Qi Haoran said righteously, "Since we can’t attack their bodies, we’ll attack their hearts. This time, the Queen Consort attacked their hearts. Lord Bai, you can just do the same thing."
It sounded nice, but who didn’t know that it was best to attack the heart? But who had thought of taking them out to the city before?
