Chapter 2655

The two senators watched the army general chatter about some trivial remarks, including some complaints about Congress's inaction at that time, and the patience of the two senators was gradually worn away.

He keeps saying these things that have nothing to do with the core issue, as if he is stalling for time.

Senator A coughed with some dissatisfaction, interrupting the Army General's "memory", "We want to know who else is involved, who are the people around you and the people who share interests with you? Say their names."

The army general seemed not to hear him. After a while, he showed a strange smile and said, "I'm sorry, I won't say anything about these issues."

"I believe that with the ability of the Congress and these... the elites among us at first glance, you will be able to investigate all the truth on your own, right?"

"Of course you can also torture me. If I can't bear it, I might tell you what you want to know."

He recognized the interrogation experts from the Security Committee at a glance. These people had a very obvious military aura about them.

There are many people from the military in the Security Committee. After all, as a large security agency, discipline is a very important part.

Its nature determines that most people in this organization are silent people. When selecting personnel, the army with better discipline becomes the main source of personnel.

After the Army General said these words, everyone was embarrassed. Although they had considered the idea of ​​torture in the end, he took the initiative to say it...

Still doesn't feel good.

Senator B changed the subject and gave some conditions, "We discussed it yesterday. If you can tell us everything we want, we can apply for protection for Peleus."

"Even if he can't be removed from these things, he can be forgiven to the maximum extent and he will be free soon."

"Now the entire federation is paying close attention to these things. We need to give the people an explanation. Maybe we will take action against some people with high status to calm the people's anger."

"But Peleus is obviously not in our consideration. This is the guarantee we can give you."

The Army General's attention was not on that last question, but on the word "people."

"Does the 'people' you refer to refer to the dozens of gentlemen in Congress?"

"And maybe the gentlemen in the presidential palace, and yourselves."

"Is the concept of the people so narrow now?"

It was a very sharp confrontation. In fact, everyone knew that taking action against the Eastern Naval District, or in other words, Peleus' family, did not come from the people's request, but from the ideas of the Congressmen and some related interest groups. !
They have withdrawn from the Central and Southern Military Region and given up most of their interests and power. Now these people want to kill them all. In the end, they are still afraid that they will come back with revenge.

Because the shelter era is coming, and once the shelter era arrives, other military regions and other agencies will not be able to deter them from the shelters in their areas.

They can then regain power, which is dangerous!

That's why they thought about cleaning up their entire family before entering the shelter era, and ridiculously used "the people" as a cover.

The undisguised ridicule on the lips of the army general made the two senators very unhappy, but their restraint did not make them lose control of their emotions.

Senator A smiled and said softly, "The people have the right to pursue the truth. If you pay attention to the recent newspapers, you will find that this matter is not as complicated as you think."

"The capitalists have fooled the people and taken their money, and now we just want to help them get their lost money back."

"A considerable part of this money has gone into the hands of some senior military officials. You are just one of them. This has nothing to do with your inner thoughts about what we are doing."

"Of course you don't have to believe us, but you should be able to see the surging public opinion."

"You are not fighting us, the Congress, the Presidential Palace, or anyone else. You are fighting the people of the Federation!"

"You'd better cooperate with our work and explain all the problems clearly. This will be a good thing for you and us."

The Army General had a look of contempt on his face, "I will never hide my true thoughts. I did get the money. I didn't deny it. I don't like your hypocrisy. You want to kill us, but you still don't." It must be in the name of the people.”

He was silent for a while, "If you think I will betray other people, my family, my colleagues, then you must be wrong."

He closed his mouth and stopped cooperating. The two senators had no choice but to have him sent back to the room.

After the Army General left, Senator A lit a cigarette, "He is obviously unwilling to cooperate with us, and he also said it directly. Maybe we have to use some extraneous methods."

The federal government has told the society that "torture" is an illegal method to this day, but in fact this illegal method is the most useful interrogation method in many cases.

Pain is a very common feeling, but what makes it extraordinary is that people have a low tolerance for pain.Most people cannot resist for long, at least those who lack faith cannot resist for long.

Senator B also lit a cigarette and shook his head, "It's not easy. He is too old. If he...is killed during the interrogation, do you know how much trouble this will cause?"

An army general was tortured to death. This was no longer a simple accident. It was a super scandal and a huge danger!
The torture expert who has been silent has put forward his own suggestion, "We can let the doctor check his physical condition first. If his body can hold on, we can give it a try."

"Sometimes it's not necessarily necessary to use heavy-duty techniques, and it doesn't even need to hurt his body, such as waterboarding."

"With doctors by our side, even if his heart stops beating, we can revive him immediately."

It sounded fucking cruel, but the two senators looked at each other and agreed to the decision.

In the afternoon, a group of doctors entered the building and conducted a comprehensive physical examination on the Army General.

Your Excellency, the Admiral, is very cooperative in this kind of work, and is even in the mood to joke.

But at night, he knew what the purpose of this was.

Waterboarding is scary, both physically and psychologically.

People's instinct to survive will infinitely amplify all the fears in their hearts. The feeling of being on the verge of death will cause people's emotions and hearts to collapse in a short period of time.

Not even those with faith can survive waterboarding.

The Admiral was taken into a room and secured to a chair, whereupon they began to wash his face.

I could still breathe at first, but as the water flow increased, the resistance to breathing became greater and greater, and at the same time, breathing brought in more and more water!
The feeling of being drowned anytime and anywhere made the old man struggle violently!
But he was fixed to death, leaving no room for struggle. His whole body began to twist due to lack of oxygen!
When he was about to die, the executioner took off the towel.

In an instant, a strong suction force came out of his mouth, and a large amount of air was sucked into his lungs. When he exhaled, he began to cough violently, and some water flowed out from his nostrils and the corners of his mouth.

Every time he took a breath, he seemed to exert his greatest strength. After a while, he gradually returned to normal.

"We really don't want to use this method to seek cooperation opportunities, but your insistence forces us to choose such an unseemly method. Can we have a good chat now?"

Senator A looked at the Army General and gave him a hint, "I can guarantee that no one will die because of this case. Maybe you will serve a sentence, but there will always be a day when you come out, right?"

"There is no need to fight to the end with these secrets, it is meaningless."

The admiral's eyes were terrifying. He looked at Senator A without saying a word, like a wounded old wolf.

Senator A, who was a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, took out his cigarette case and glanced at the torture expert, "I'll go out and have a smoke. Maybe our General will have new ideas."

The second round of executions began. Although the same things were repeated, the fear it brought to people was still infinite.

This is fear that cannot be controlled by willpower, thoughts, because the body is instinctively sending out survival signals and desires, which cannot be controlled by strong willpower!

Senator B also rushed over after finishing his work. It was already the third round of executions, but the General still did not say a word.

"Do you think we can handle him?" Senator B asked.

Senator A standing aside had an ugly expression and said uncertainly, "I don't know, I have never dealt with such a person before, you..."

The two were talking when suddenly several doctors rushed in. During the third round of execution, the old man's energy was exhausted.

He is already older, and the further the waterboarding progresses, the greater his body's reaction will be, and the amount of energy consumed will increase exponentially.

It feels like every muscle and cell in the body is struggling for help!
This time, the time was slightly out of control. Although he finally lifted the towel, he was already in a state of near-death.

After several minutes of resuscitation, the army general was rescued, but today's execution ended here.

"His condition is not very good. He needs to rest for two or three days before the interrogation can continue."

This is the conclusion given by the doctor.

"Then let him rest for two days!"
