"Heh. I didn't expect that someone with such tender skin would be able to endure it. " With that said, Dog Head grabbed the shovel and pulled off the meat that was cooked. A part of his shoulder that was the size of a palm was ripped apart.

Qian Li gasped from the pain, but she did not cry out for help.

The guards weren't surprised at the sight of such a terrible wound. Instead, they became even more excited.

"Don't think that what you've done was seen by no one. Let me tell you, in this place, only we don't want to know, there is nothing that we can't see."

Qian Li squinted her eyes. This place was a little far from the prison she was in, but she could still feel the probing gaze from inside.

Is it her?

The girl that said she had some ability?

Who was she?

The Flower Harvester, the Poison Matriarch?

Good, very good. Another person that he had succeeded in remembering. Moreover, she was the first woman who could make him remember her with just a look.

"So?" Qian Li retracted her gaze, and finally opened her mouth. Her voice, which had not been heard for a long time, had become extremely hoarse, like a duck's.

"So what do you want?"

When he finally heard Qian Li's words, Kobold seemed to be very happy as he said, "What do you mean what do we want?"

Looking at Qian Li's lowered head, Kobold used the handle of the whip in his hand to raise Qian Li's head and look at him in the eyes, "Woe to Yang has said it before, you want to beg for your life but cannot do it. Before this, you have always been unwilling to sign and pledge on the crime book, and now that you are refusing to admit your crimes, what else can I do?"

Qian Li pursed her lips, the one who killed was not her, according to the memories of this body, the son of the rich man Yang had died from an illness, but because Qian Li happened to be nearby, she was dragged here to take the blame.

In this situation, how could she possibly plead guilty?

"I didn't kill anyone."

"You're still not admitting to it?" Dog Head narrowed his eyes and turned around, instructing, "Servant, give her a treat. Since you don't know how to repent, we'll let her have a taste of your punishment."

Hearing that, a flicker of emotion flashed past Qian Li's eyes, and quickly disappeared.

If she hadn't personally experienced it, how would she have known that the people in the prison were so merciless?

She couldn't resist even if her fingers were clamped. She pursed her lips, refusing to let herself be called out.

"Pull!"

As the prison warden grew stronger and stronger, Qian Li began to sweat profusely. The sweat fell on the scars on her body and it hurt so much that she almost fainted.

But no, she had been trying to stay awake. She had to remember this, this pain that pierced her heart.

Her face was as white as a sheet of paper.

His hair was scattered to the side, some of it was stuck to his face with sweat, making him look extremely miserable.

At this time, Qian Li actually wanted to laugh, she had heard of the ten fingers connecting to the heart before, and it turned out that … It really was like that.

"Why are you holding back like this? "It's a dead end after all. If I were you, I would sign my name obediently and save myself from being tortured, no?"

"Pei," Qian Li spat on the face of the dog head, "Don't fake such words here. You definitely know that I'm not guilty of anything. However, my Lord, would you feel at ease spending this kind of money? "

Qian Li felt that she no longer had any strength left. Originally, according to her personality, she would not say such words, but the more it hurt, the more obvious the hatred she had in her heart.

Why?

He had done so much for Gong Ye in his previous life, but in the end, it was still fine for him to not have any remains.

Where was the justice?

Where's justice?

Were the gods blind?

With just a glance, Qian Li saw the panic in her eyes. Just now, she was only guessing, but she did not expect that she actually guessed right.

From the looks of it, the master of this body was also miserable. Not only was he framed by others, he even had to avenge others. However … Who was behind all this?

"Pull, pull!"

The dog head became angry from the embarrassment, and became even more furious. Qian Li only felt that her vision started to blur, and this time, she really couldn't take it anymore.

"Stop."

Just then, the Gaoler Head appeared.

"I haven't even received any notification to interrogate you, yet you are now abusing lynchings here. Dog Head, you're getting bolder and bolder."

Seeing this person, Dog Head was a little afraid. Although the two of them were not that far apart in terms of position, Gaoler Head was a person who truly had a backer, and she himself only had one servant, who was by the side of the Prime Minister.

"Lord, why have you come?"

Gaoler Head walked to Qian Li's side and reached out to take a look at her chin. Mmm, she's not dead yet. "If I don't come, are you planning on directly killing him?"

"How could that be? I just saw that she was admitting her wrongs, so I came over to take a look due to the urgent matter. Who would've known that she would kill someone, so …"

"Murder?" The Gaoler Head squinted his eyes, "How come I heard that the person who killed them was someone else and that he was already executed by you in private?"

"This …"

"Hurry up and scram. Wait for this official's punishment?"

"Yes …"

Kobold glared at Qian Li in hatred, and then left unwillingly with his men.

Gaoler Head took the shovel from before.

The hot air continued to spray on her face. Even though there was still a distance between them, she still felt extremely hot.

But even so, Gaoler Head did not see any trace of fear or cowardice on her face.

A hint of admiration flashed through his eyes. No wonder …

No wonder that person wanted him to observe her in secret. So it turned out that there were still some things on her that could make others look at her in a new light.

"Do you know why I saved you?"

Gaoler Head waved the shovel in her hand in front of Qian Li, one moment showing her face and the other showing her chest, but no matter where he moved to, even when she pretended that she did not hold onto it steadily, as if she was about to fall on top of her, he did not see any fear in Qian Li's eyes.

He squinted his eyes and immediately smiled. This was interesting.

"Answer my question, or else …"

Hearing that, Qian Li finally raised her head and indifferently swept his eyes across him. At that moment, Gaoler Head even had the illusion that Qian Li had already seen through all of his tricks.

"Or else kill me?" Qian Li smirked, "If you really wanted to kill me, you would have done so long ago. Why wait till now?"

Qian Li had always been sharp, and from the very beginning, she knew that this person was watching from the sidelines. Perhaps she had some ulterior motive?

"How do you know? Where did your confidence come from? " Without waiting for Qian Li's answer, he continued, "Who doesn't know how to kill people? Especially in places like this, where people die almost every day because of various reasons. Wouldn't it be too boring if we all died the same way? "

Qian Li squinted her eyes, "So the reason why Master is making it difficult for me is because you know that I killed someone? So? Do you want to take revenge for her? "

"Haha." Gaoler Head laughed loudly. "It's indeed because of this reason, but the people here don't have anything to do with me. Why should I avenge her if she dies?"

Qian Li pursed her lips. Her eyes looked at the shovel in his hand that was not as red as before, and it seemed like she could still see her own flesh on top of it, she panted, "This Qian Li doesn't understand, she won't kill me, but she will make it difficult for me, even if I say I don't care, but she still tied me up here. Seeing those people do whatever they want with their own eyes, what's the point in doing so, my lord? "

"Alright, a straightforward person does not beat around the bush." Gaoler Head threw the things in her hands back into the pot, "Let's make a deal."

"Alright."

Seeing Qian Li being so straightforward, Gaoler Head was actually a little curious, "If you don't ask me why I want to make a deal with you, and just accept it, aren't you afraid that I'll lie to you?"

Qian Li smiled, "I have already reached this stage, what else can Master lie to me about? After all, my life is in ruins. Perhaps when I make a deal with you, I will still be able to live until the day when I see the light of day again. "

"You're right." Gaoler Head seemed to be more and more satisfied with her, "As long as this matter is completed, I will personally send you out."

Qian Li nodded, "I'm afraid there must be someone else who wants to send me out."

"You are indeed smart. No wonder you were able to receive his special treatment. "How could I have been mistaken before?"

Qian Li lowered her eyes. She thought to herself, "It's not that you're wrong, but the person before isn't me."
