Chapter 167: The Punishment of Dripping Water

Chapter 167: The Punishment of Dripping Water
Lu Yuqing's eyes flicked helplessly from side to side, and his voice clearly began to tremble: "I didn't understand what you said from the beginning. The reason why I came to Dusk City was because the Gyeonggi Yinyang Division observed the sky at night and found that the seven stars are connected. It is a bad omen, and it can be deduced from the surrounding star array that the ominous place is Dusk City, so I was sent here to conduct a field survey to find out the reason."

Chino laughed straight away: "It doesn't matter who your captain is, you actually let you make up such an excuse. I admit, this guy is quite cute."

"Why don't you believe me? What I said is true!" Lu Yuqing's eyes were clouded with mist, and he hissed, "Seven Stars Lianzhu is a rare phenomenon in ancient and modern times. Once it happens, there will be seven disasters in the ominous place— —Earthquake, storm, gray curtain, withering, blood rain, corpse rise, annihilation. For the safety of Twilight City, you must pay attention!"

Kino ignored her, looked sideways at the triple shackles, and said in a deep voice, "Perform reincarnation identification."

Scarlet words appeared in front of Kino's eyes:

[Rejected applicants apply for reincarnation identification]

[During the identification process, you will not be punished for revealing reincarnation information]

[If the recognition is successful, A, B, C, and D-level reincarnation camouflage will be invalid]

[If the recognition fails, the target will forget the memory of reincarnation information during the recognition]

【Recognition On】

Chino looked at Lu Yuqing and said flatly, "Say it, say you are a reincarnator, and let's end this game."

Lu Yuqing looked at Kino blankly: "What reincarnation? What are you talking about?"

[Recognition failed, unable to determine whether the target is a reincarnation]

[If the target is not a reincarnation, the memory has been forgotten]

[Regulation restrictions come into force again]

Lu Yuqing was stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes, as if he just woke up from a dream, and then hurriedly said, "Did you hear me? I said that there may be seven disasters here, you must pay attention to it!"

Kino still ignored her: "Perform reincarnation identification again."

【Recognition On】

The smile on Kino's face faded a little: "I advise you not to pretend, it's only a matter of time before you speak, and my time is precious, I hope you don't waste it."

Lu Yuqing's voice started to grow louder, with a crying tone: "I really don't know what you are talking about!"

Chino: "Okay, since you say you are innocent. Then I will write a line, and you read it. As long as you read it, I will let you go on the spot."

Kino picked up a pen and paper, and wrote a line: I am a reincarnation.

He put the paper in front of Lu Yuqing and said, "Read it, you will be free after reading it."

Lu Yuqing stared blankly at the paper in front of him, and muttered, "What does this mean?"

Chino: "Just read it, don't worry about the meaning."

Lu Yuqing asked loudly: "Why should I read these inexplicable things? Is this some kind of criminal confession? You want to induce a confession?"

Chino: "Read."

Lu Yuqing turned his face away hard, and raised his brows angrily: "I don't read it! I am not a reincarnation person as written on it at all! You imprison me like this, the court will never let you go!"

[Recognition failed, unable to determine whether the target is a reincarnation]

[If the target is not a reincarnation, the memory has been forgotten]

[Regulation restrictions come into force again]

The smile on Kino's face disappeared completely.

He stared at Lu Yuqing for more than ten seconds, then got up, and said blankly: "Want to play? Then let's continue playing."

Kino opened a compartment and arranged things inside.

Because of being imprisoned, Lu Yuqing didn't know what Chino was doing, nor did she know what instruments of torture were inside, and the rustling sound gave her a lot of psychological pressure.

After finishing the arrangement, Chino came out, lifted Lu Yuqing with telekinetic power, and moved him to the compartment.

On the way, Lu Yu listened to Chino's words: "The textbook says, if the other party is alone and has no companions, and it is difficult to use the companion's death or injury to break through the psychological defense line, then take her alone to the dark room and inject a drug that can amplify the pain perception, and then Teeth were pulled, nails were peeled, and the scalp was cut, during which time cold water was used to keep her awake, combined with strong light exposure and noise pollution, to put her into a state of anxiety, using such methods to destroy her body and will, in order to extract information."

Kino dumped Lu Yu into the compartment, shook his head and said, "But in my opinion, the method in the textbook is too troublesome, and beginners can easily fail to control the force of the torture, and accidentally let the target die. If the full score is 10, I will give it the most 3 points."

The compartment was very small, and there were no torture instruments such as knives and iron tongs. There was only a binding table with a cracked bucket hanging from it.

While tying Lu Yuqing to the platform, Chino said slowly: "I don't know if you like watching movies, I like them very much. Besides classic movies like "Gone with the Wind" and "Farewell My Concubine", I will also watch some movies. A niche cult film."

“There’s a cult movie called The Spoon Killer that’s very interesting. Its opening sermon goes: Some killers kill in seconds, some killers in minutes, some killers in hours, and one Killer, it takes years for him to kill."

"In our line of work, it is remarkable that the slow processing can be calculated in terms of 'months'. I don't understand the method of slow processing that has lasted for several years, so I went in curiously."

"The plot of the movie is simple - the hero is attacked by a monster who keeps hitting him with a spoon. The monster can't be killed, can't be seen by others, and can't be shaken off. No matter who the protagonist asks for help, no one Believe him, no matter where he flees, this weirdo will chase him to the ends of the earth with a spoon and beat him over and over."

"In the beginning, the beating did not cause any harm, but after a while, repeated beatings caused bruises, which became bloody and affected consciousness. In this way, the actor was beaten for 24 hours, unable to get rid of it, unable to sleep , unable to do anything, and finally fell into the abyss of despair."

"This movie sounds funny, but as long as you think about it carefully, you will find that the director has summed up a principle of slow processing-the fastest way to make people collapse is to do the same thing to him repeatedly and uninterrupted."

Kino tied up Lu Yuqing, adjusted the position of the bucket so that the slit hung directly above her eyebrows, then filled the bucket with water, and installed a siphon to connect it to the reservoir.

"Tick tock." Through the slit at the bottom of the bucket, a drop of water fell on the center of Lu Yuqing's eyebrows. It was very light, but it became the only sound in this compartment where you could hear a needle falling.

"Tick."

"Tick."

At first, Lu Yuqing didn't feel uncomfortable, the water dripping between his eyebrows was neither painful nor itchy, and it wouldn't cause any harm at all.

But soon, the situation changed subtly.

No matter what she was thinking, the drops of water between her eyebrows would interrupt her thoughts again and again, making her unable to think at all, and her attention was forced to focus on the water droplets.

People who suffer from insomnia must have this experience. On a plane or on a train, it is not easy to suffer from insomnia when there is some low noise around, but when the surrounding is so quiet that you can hear a needle drop, the feeling of insomnia will come quietly.

When there are no other sounds around, people will unconsciously focus on the sound of their own breathing, and sometimes even the sound of heartbeat can be clearly heard.

It is impossible for a person to let breathing and heartbeat disappear. In the silent bedroom, they are forced to listen to these sounds, and the attention is inevitably concentrated. Over time, irritability will arise in the heart, and insomnia will appear.

Now Lu Yuqing's situation is similar to that of an insomnia patient. She has no way to stop the water droplets, and she can't divert her attention. It is obviously neither painful nor itchy, but she is forced to concentrate.

"Tick tock, tick tock." The sound of dripping water gradually became very clear, and the long-term concentration brought a huge sense of fatigue, but there was no way to rest, and slowly entered an unspeakable manic mood.

Kino left the cubicle, his smiling face gradually disappearing through the crack of the closed door: "It's what you want to play, please enjoy it."

"Boom." The door was closed tightly, leaving only endless darkness, rapid breathing, and the constant sound of dripping water.
