Chapter 837: A Thousand Needles For Liars

After being forced to confess by Grandma Su, Assistant Professor Chen, who was afraid of death, told her everything he knew about Happy Science and Ai ShuQiao’s suspected imprisonment of Su Qiao.

He talked more about Happy Science and didn’t have a lot of details about Ai ShuQiao. He wasn’t even sure if Su Qiao was imprisoned in Dong Shan City, let alone pointing out a specific location.

Grandma Su suspected that he wasn’t telling her everything, thus she used the inhumane “acupuncture torture” to force a confession. She stabbed a few silver needles in certain special acupuncture points and it made Assistant Chen almost piss his pants. He begged and swore he told her everything, and that he would be struck by lightning if he was lying.

Actually, Assistant Professor Chen worked at an evil cult for twenty years. If there really was a god, he would have been struck by lightning and killed a long time ago.

However, Grandma Su was very confident in her abilities to force a confession with acupuncture. The master who taught her this skill used it a lot in the wards back in the old days.

After confirming she couldn’t get any more information out of Assistant Professor Chen, Grandma Su put away her silver needles and warned him, “Don’t inquire about my identity and don’t tell Ai ShuQiao that I came to look for Su Qiao. Otherwise, I’ve only hit three of your acupuncture points today, but next time I’ll use all seven of the acupuncture points that my master taught me…”

“Don’t, please don’t.” Assistant Teacher Chen kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic, “Please spare my life, I’m just a small-time crook and only trick people out of some money for me to spend. Please forgive me and let me live.”

Grandma Su thought her threats were effective when she saw Assistant Professor Chen’s half dead look. In addition to making him keep it a secret, she also told him to find out where Su Qiao was being held by Ai ShuQiao.

Assistant Professor Chen was afraid to get stabbed by a needle again, so he quickly agreed. After Grandma Su left, Assistant Professor Chen immediately surrendered himself to the Public Security Bureau.

After Assistant Professor Chen joined the Happy Science Cult, it can be concluded: he thought he was smart, but he wasn’t really smart. However, he’s worked at another cult for a long time, so he was not stupid. After Grandma Su came out of nowhere and tortured him, he realized his only option left was to surrender. The only reasonable choice was to let the police protect him.

In terms of Happy Science, Professor Bai never trusted him and treated him as a handyman. Also, with Professor Bai’s intelligence, he might have already realized his identity as a spy, and could have killed him at any time to put an end to the trouble.

Although Happy Science had no precedent of using violence, Assistant Professor Chen, as someone experienced in cults, knew that cults would do anything to keep their secrets. He would not be surprised. even if Professor Bai suddenly appeared in the next second and shot him in the head with a pistol.

What was even more frightening was that he had told Grandma Su a lot of information about Ai ShuQiao. Although most of the information he said wasn’t valuable, but in the end, he was still spilling Ai ShuQiao’s business to outsiders, and most likely to someone who was Ai ShuQiao’s enemy.

Initially, the one who made contact with Assistant Professor Chen was Ai ShuQiao’s subordinate, the former manager of the “Tian Mu Xing Guang” entertainment company, Fu ShiJian. He was transferred back to the United States and feeling resentful his new position didn’t make good money. Once when he got drunk, he talked about how Ai ShuQiao throws people away once they’re useless and about the fact that he knows many company secrets and so on… As a result, the next day, his corpse was found floating in a Los Angeles sewage channel.

Assistant Professor Chen knew that Fu ShiJian was definitely killed by Ai ShuQiao. If he was as drunk as Fu ShiJian and said something wrong, he would have probably suffered the same fate.

He was so scared that he didn’t drink for many days, but then he bumped into Grandma Su. He was tortured and forced to give up everything, which was much more serious than a drunken slip of the tongue.

The world might be big, but Assistant Professor Chen felt like he didn’t have a place to go: the Happy Science Cult will eradicate traitors, Ai ShuQiao erases untrustworthy pawns, and Grandma Su still has four acupuncture points she didn’t try yet…

After repeatedly thinking about it, Assistant Professor Chen realized with despair: only the government can protect him now.

So he went to the public security bureau and turned himself in. He told them his real name and also gave them an entire list of the names of the key members of the cult that he used to be in. He hoped that the government can take that into account and be lenient with the punishment.

However, he didn’t think he would be absolutely safe just because he surrendered, so he only provided a list of names of the cult that was shut down by the public security bureau. He didn’t say a word about Happy Science to avoid Professor Bai from sending someone into prison to kill him.

As for Ai ShuQiao, of course he didn’t say a word. Fu ShiJian was already killed and Assistant Professor Chen didn’t want to follow in his footsteps.

In the end, the reason why Assistant Professor Chen surrendered was to mainly avoid Grandma Su’s needles. So he didn’t have to be tortured and continue to spy on Ai ShuQiao. If he accidentally made Ai ShuQiao mad, he would have been crushed to death like a bedbug.

The police officer didn’t about the case, but he looked up a file of wanted criminals and realized it was the right person. He couldn’t help but be overjoyed and directly locked up Assistant Professor Chen. He also began to do a wide search across the country based on the information he was provided.

“What a miscalculation, I can’t believe I scared him into surrendering.” Grandma Su smacked her lips, “If I had known, I would have only stabbed two of his acupuncture points and maybe I can still put him to good use.”

Ever since Assistant Professor Chen was locked up by the police, Grandma Su gave up on him. It’s because back in the day, Grandma Su’s eldest son was fined by the police after he cut down a tree to build a house, so now she had a certain bias against the police. She thought that the police were too inefficient and nosy, and didn’t want to have anything to do with them.

In the days after that, Grandma Su, based on the information she obtained, first went to follow Ai ShuQiao’s daughter Ai Mi. She later tried to eavesdrop on the conversation between me and Peng TouSi. She didn’t tell me in detail what she did in between, but she thought she could cooperate with me. That’s why she appeared in front of me and that’s what led to the current situation of the two of us sitting in McDonald’s.

“I have to save my granddaughter no matter what.” Grandma Su said, “I heard that you helped her out when Su Qiao was filming in Film City.”

She was probably referring to the time Ai Mi picked on Su Qiao while she was acting as one of those armored warriors. Fortunately, it seems Grandma Su only learned about what happened on the surface. If she knew that her granddaughter came to find me that night, she probably would have used torture techniques on me to make sure that I didn’t sleep with Su Qiao.

“It’s what I should do.” I smiled bitterly with an unnatural expression, “My sister Ai Mi is spoiled and always likes to bully people. Grandma Su, you’re the bigger person and shouldn’t stoop to my sister’s level.”

“Hmph, it’s not like I haven’t thought about kidnapping your sister and exchange hostages with your mom.” Grandma Su leaned back into her chair, “One reason I haven’t done it yet is because I never found a good opportunity. Secondly, her black bodyguard is very vigilant, and thirdly, I don’t want to bully a ten year old girl as an old woman…”

“I hope you won’t do something like kidnapping my sister.” I expressed myself, “One, Ai Mi’s full-time bodyguard is called Peng TouSi. He’s brave and resourceful, he’s strong enough to wrestle with God, his martial arts skills are unfathomable. Two, Ai ShuQiao is cold-blooded and merciless, so she won’t panic even if you kidnap Ai Mi. On the contrary, it might even make her more vigilant. Three, I’m very willing to help you to find Su Qiao’s whereabouts, but it has to be on the premise that my sister will not be harmed. That’s my bottom line, I hope you can understand.”

I said it very firmly compared to my previously humble attitude. Grandma Su was slightly surprised, she stared at me quite fiercely for a while, but smiled instead when she noticed I wasn’t afraid.

“I heard that you really care about your half sister, and it’s true… well, don’t do unto others what you don’t want done unto you. I promise I won’t lay a hand on your sister, but when I leave Dong Shan City, I better be leaving with my granddaughter. If I can’t save Su Qiao through normal means, then I’m sorry. Although I promised I won’t kidnap your sister, I won’t rule out kidnapping you.”

“Okay, no problem.” I agreed without hesitation, “As long as my sister is safe, you kidnapping me will not destroy our partnership. But I’ve already said I have a bad relationship with Ai ShuQiao, so we won’t know if she’s even willing to exchange hostages…”

Actually, Ai ShuQiao would definitely not be willing to switch in the past, but in the present, Ai ShuQiao treats my blood like it’s a golden key to a treasure trove, so she might really agree to Grandma Su’s request to switch.

Why don’t I just directly put on an act with Grandma Su and make Ai ShuQiao release Su Qiao?

On second thought, it’s better to play it safe and use a less drastic way to solve the problem. Now that Ai ShuQiao made a deal with me, perhaps if I negotiate with her, I can easily achieve my goal.

Although there was a possibility of immediate freedom for Su Qiao, I didn’t tell Grandma Su. I didn’t want to make her excited if things don’t go the way I planned, so I only promised to help as much as I could and try to find out where Su Qiao was imprisoned.

Grandma Su was satisfied. She asked for my cell phone number, then left with her cane. She headed downstairs and her figure quickly disappeared in the night.

I guess today was the so-called “international information exchange day”, otherwise why did I immediately exchange information with Grandma Su right after I finished exchanging information with Peng TouSi.

After the exchange of information, my “Mission Briefing” was also updated:

? The spy that Ai ShuQiao arranged in the Happy Science Cult has already surrendered, so I would have to work independently once I infiltrate inside (which is a good thing, after all, I don’t want bad teammates).

? There’s a high possibility that Su Qiao was imprisoned by Ai ShuQiao. It’s better to get Ai ShuQiao to release her on her own accord through a deal, or else I’ll have to find out where Su Qiao is being imprisoned and then try to rescue her.

? My blood was the key to making a deal, but I still don’t know how Ai ShuQiao is using my blood. If I understand it more, I can take the initiative in the deal.
