Chapter 3: Interrogation

There was a sound of heavy machinery operating outside the room. It sounded like some sort of assembly line. Maybe it was an automobile factory, a meat cannery, or a beverage factory. DeWitt had these things in his mind, which were irrelevant.
An hour ago, he was brought here with a black hood. An empty room of only about ten square meters had windows closed. The whole room had only a chandelier on top of his head, and the light did not reach the surrounding walls and corners.
DeWitt was tied to a chair with a rope, and after unveiling the cover, the big man next to Sonny began to beat him. The name of the beater was Gawa, an amateur boxer. At least he was a middleweight. He wrapped his gauze around his hands, and beat Devitt's belly, chest, neck and face for forty minutes. In addition, it took him about 20 minutes to ask questions, but the answer he got was basically "You punch like a drunk man" or "I think you're out of breath, do you want to take a break?"
The cigarette butts on the ground show that Sonny's time and patience have been worn away, and Gawa seems to have given up interrogation. He walked to Sonny, put his voice in his ear and lowered his voice, "I will fight again There will be no results. I once met a similar guy in the Middle East. The two-hour electric shock didn't even ask for the name. "
Sonny pushed away Gawa, took out a pistol from his jacket, and held DeWitt's forehead: "Listen, asshole, this is your last chance to say your superior's name."
"I already said that if you use the organ you put in your brain a little bit, you can rule out the possibility that I am a policeman."
The was knocked heavily on DeWitt's chin, and Sonny angrily said, "Okay, since you can't pry your mouth open." He turned and pulled out another chair from the dark shadow in the corner of the room. Mike was Tied to it, but it looks like he hasn't punched him yet.
"I'm sorry, man, I can only think of a way from you." Sonny waved Gawa to come, it seems to be ready to do something to Mike.
"Hey! Hey! What is this! What do I have to do with the matter ?! This person was introduced to you by me. I have known him for less than twenty-four hours. I do n’t even know his last name." Mike hurriedly Shouted: "And I told you everything I knew!"
"Yes, you told us all, you said he killed all the people who delivered from the Jenovice family, threw it into Lake Michigan, took the money, and took you away from nearly half the city police force. Hunting. Do you think this is a video game or a movie? Do I look like a three-year-old? Mike, my buddy, our previous cooperation is still very happy, but if you continue to write the story, you ca n’t Blame me for disregarding past friendships. "
"You're not a three-year-old, you're just a little stupid." DeWitt laughed behind Sonny.
"You bastard!" Sonny was so angry that he rushed forward to Devitt with two old punches.
At this time, Ungarva untied the blood-stained gauze and threw it on the ground, replaced two clean ones, and re-entangled them. He had already taken off his shirt, the muscles on his two arms were knotted, and the blue tendons were protruding. The brawny brawny man stood in front of the white and thin Mike, and the four-eyed student became more and more fragile. He just untied the rope. Get kicked down by three punches.
"Boy, do you want me to take off your glasses? I don't want you to call like a girl after the lenses are inserted into the eyes." Gawa's right fist knocked twice into the palm of his left hand, seemingly ready Hands on.
Mike hurriedly: "Wait, wait ... wait, wait, don't do it, I can explain."
Sonny came over again, "I'm listening."
Mike said: "Since you don't believe what I said before, I can help you analyze the worst situation you are worried about, nothing more than ... DeWitt is a policeman, agent or HL or something, and I have reached a certain agreement with him. This kind of transaction helps him conceal something that happened yesterday. But you can think about it, it is absolutely impossible. "
Sonny said: "Why? Just because you met this person yesterday, I should believe that you are not likely to be bought by him? I've seen many guys like you, and pretended to have a little higher education, secretly Do something illegal. As long as the note comes to your door and threatens you with imprisonment and the future, you immediately become an informant like a bitch, hoping to send someone like me to jail to exchange for one. Isn't there a witness protection program? "
Mick swallowed and said, "Mr. Lucches, I have to reiterate that you asked him to come to me."
Sonny said: "Yes, because I think this guy is a liar. He actually calls himself an" advisor "..." He turned back and grabbed DeWitt's hair, and said to his face, "You think I haven't heard of that. A consultant? If a man in his forties walked in front of me, maybe I would still be so one-percent likely to believe it, but you guys do n’t feel like you are too tender to impersonate a legend Is it a little bit? "
DeWitt just smiled and didn't bother to respond.
Sonny returned to Mike again: "So I told him about Tony's delivery time and place, and said to him, 'If you are a consultant, you know what to do to prove yourself'."
Mike replied: "Then you introduce me to him, because I know all kinds of transaction information in the city. If DeWitt really calls the police to destroy the transaction, you can completely set yourself aside afterwards."
Sonny smiled: "Good guess."
Mike continued: "As a result, Tony may be arrested or killed because of refusal to arrest, even if he is not dead, or the police can't sue him and let him go, but the online sale must be yellow, Tony It's also going to be very difficult inside the Janowice house, and your revenge is achieved.
But no matter what the outcome, Genovese suspects that this is the ghost you are behind, because you and Tony always have holidays. At that time, you can pretend to know nothing. Even if DeWitt identifies you, you can also say that he is a liar. He wants to rely on the power of the Lucches family to protect himself and push me at the right time as some kind of evidence. , The information proving the transaction was not disclosed by you. "
DeWitt spoke again later: "Sony, this kid is much smarter than you."
"You won't shut up, I will cut your tongue." Sonny turned back intimidating.
Mike spoke sharply: "But you didn't expect that DeWitt did not call the police as you imagined. Instead, he chose to eat black and successfully escaped. Because you don't believe he can do it, so It is suspected that he is a policeman. No matter what he did last night, it can only be done by the police's secret cooperation. "
Sonny said: "Yes, so why don't we talk about it again? Boy, what good does this note give you? What happened last night?"
Mike breathed a sigh of relief: "If the city of Chicago is still operating normally, I think what happened last night, you have read in the newspaper this morning."
Sonny's expression changed slightly.
Mike went on to say: "The media report should be that two burnt-out cars were found, one was a van, and the other was an escape vehicle that caused traffic disruption in the afternoon. Some footprints were found at the scene, but no one was found. He said. He paused here. "Don't you think this is exactly the same as what I told you before?"
Sonny snorted; "Really? What do I think, the slivers captured Tony's gang and deliberately let you go, and then blocked the news to the outside world?" He looked at Mike: " And you came to me at 11am this morning, and it was normal to read a few newspapers in the morning. "
Mike: "Then, according to your speculation, suppose DeWitt is the undercover sent by the police. The process should be like this ...
First of all, DeWitt tried to break into your family in a very amazing way-posing as a consultant, I think any undercover police detective, even if you choose to throw peanuts at your face in a bar, is better than this.
And you did n’t believe him from the beginning, you can see that he failed in the first step; then he jumped into the obvious trap that you designed, and he also bribed me by means of intimidation and temptation, an understanding People who haven't seen it for a long time, then after all the design was finished last night, I brought you, a person who ca n’t talk about loyalty and no training at all, to see you again and again. Severely tortured him and betrayed him. "
The expression on Sonny's face changed, and it seemed to be shaken, but Mike hadn't finished: "Mr. Lucches, you should think about it, your suspicion is baseless and illogical. In addition, Even if you do what you want, you have to say that he is a policeman. I also strongly recommend that you do not torture me, a person who has been out of the way. If you just shoot him out, he has nothing to do with me. Today I will talk to him Come here because this refused to pay me. "
At this point, the voice of the fifth person sounded in the room, and the low voice said, "Well, Sonny, go out with Gawa first, don't forget to close the door."
Gawsony responded, glared at the two on the chair, and went out with Gawa.
In the corner of the house, there was a man in the darkness. He was there from the beginning, but neither DeWitt nor Mike noticed him, and Sonny and Gawa also deliberately pretended to have only four people in the house.
In the shadows, a white-haired old man came out, wearing a beard and wearing a suit that the working class can only afford for one year's wages. He also moved a stool and sat in front of the two, saying, "I admire both You know, when you were your age, I was fooling around all day, and lived as a playboy, which worried my parents very much. "His eyes moved to Devitt's face:" I hope you can forgive me Suspicious, I totally believe that a consultant is a talented and very young person. I just hate those undercover.
We are a large family, and it is inevitable that some specious people will come in. I accept them and treat them as family members, but these thieves only want to destroy the interests of the family and send their brothers to jail, hurting them. Affect our feelings and self-esteem. "
DeWitt spit out the blood in his mouth: "So, was the last test just a test, or will there be more temptations in the future?"
The old man replied: "I think it's enough, boy. If you are a top student secretly picked out by the chief from the police academy, your eyes should not look like this when the gun is pointed at your head."
"Oh? What?" DeWitt laughed.
"I've seen a lot of people look undercover when facing a lethal threat. At that time, a person will think of his family, his task, or his chief. In short, he will remember something meaningful, even if he is calm and ready to face. Death, but some emotions cannot be covered up.
If you are a wronged villain, at that moment, you will be angry, unwilling, and more crazy guys, such as you, who seem to be thinking about boring things, and what you will eat for dinner later than today. "
"Uh ... sir, may I ask you?" Mike interrupted.
"Joseph Lucches, I think you should have heard the name, young man." Joseph replied.
Mike lowered his head and smiled: "Hehe ... I am honored to meet your husband. I think if I can get out of here alive today, I will no longer be a law-abiding citizen."
Joseph said: "You are no longer a law-abiding citizen, Mike."
DeWitt seemed quite excited: "What made the boss of the Lucches family choose to see me in person? When you first sat in this room, you should haven't heard Mike's narration, just read the newspaper. It's just reporting, isn't it ... "
Joseph replied: "Even me, after seeing the report, the first skeptic was Sonny, and he did not dare to lie in front of me."
"Hmm ... I see, even if it's only 1 in 10,000, you want to bet, I'm a real consultant, because you need a 'consultant' now."
Joseph said: "Young man, I have checked some of your things. The name Dewitt Lyle is just a symbol, just like the title of" advisor ", which does not represent anything. At present, I have 90% certainty that you Not a police person, but I do n’t even have 30% confidence that you are the consultant.
Perhaps you did a black sale last night, UU reading www.uukanshu. com But as far as I know, in this world, there are some people with special talents. Some people call them superpowers, abilities, or simply freaks. If you are one of them, I think, to deal with Tony and Joe Those people are still possible, and it makes sense to escape the general police. "
DeWitt said: "You don't need those who are capable, because that will call for HL-level departments to intervene, which is a taboo for gangsters and a dangerous boundary; what you need is the wisdom of an 'advisor', a strategy of crime, That's what you want. "
Joseph said: "That's right. Yesterday, you took the initiative to find Sunny, indicating that at least in the short term, you only want to cooperate with our Lucches family, and your position has been tested just now. Now I don't care if you are The so-called capable person, if you are a consultant, I will hire you, of course I only need the plan you provided. "
DeWitt said: "What if I am not?"
Joseph stood up, tied Devitt and Mike personally, and said, "You better prove that you are, because my expectations have been raised to a very high level." He told Mike again: "And you, In the future, I will only serve the Lucches family, and I think that with your talents, you will soon be on top of Sonny. "
Mike: "Sir, it's Lucie's surname, your true relative ..."
Joseph shrugged: "Of course, otherwise that stupid thing would have been thrown into the sea by me."
"Oh ... haha ​​..." Mike smiled bluntly.
DeWitt moved his muscles: "I do have a big deal to talk to you, Mr. Luces, but before that, since you still have doubts about my identity, I took advantage of Tony and Joe's bones. Do one more thing for you for free. "
