Five minutes later, Qin Feng and Zhan Bo Cheng showed up at the interrogating room as well. They were shocked to see Mo Xi as they have never seen a female like Mo Xi in the military before. However, they kept quiet as they knew they had more important matters to do.
"Let me do the interrogation," Mo Xi said to Jing Mo Chen as she could tell whether Five of Clubs was speaking the truth and she could also get him to speak the truth much easier.
"Ok."
They tied up Five of Clubs limbs securely to a chair and by the time he woke up, he was already unable to move.
"Who sent you to kill old Ji?" Mo Xi asked coldly as she looked into the eyes of Five of Clubs.
"…"
"I don't repeat myself. The last time I repeated, the person died a horrible death," Mo Xi said with an even colder voice and a murderous look in her eyes.
Of course, Mo Xi was kidding about it, she was purely acting the big bad killer. Apparently, all of the other Poker members were tricked by her as well.
"…"
"Alright, if this is what you choose," Mo Xi said and got up from the chair and turned to walk away.
However, as she turned, she suddenly turned back and punched Five of Clubs' face. That punch was so strong that blood flew out of Five of Clubs' mouth.
"You should know that I would not let you go alive ever since we met again. Do you think that your boss cares about your life?"
"He will get me out of here!"
"All of you were orphans that were took in by the boss. Why did you think he chose orphans? Did you think he chose orphans because he was kind? No, he chose orphans because you guys needed a family and he made use of that to make you all do things for him."
"He gave us a home! A family!"
"Family? Do you think that's how you get family? Do you even know what a family is? Family would never put you in danger. Family always try to stand in front of each other to protect the others from harm! What about him? He stood behind all of you as he coward from the dangers and made all of you did his stuff!" Mo Xi said coldly as she tried to make Five of Clubs look into her eyes.
"He didn't cower! He is very strong! That is why he didn't need to do all those things!"
"Families care for one another! Families would always stand at the frontline in times of need! Your family is an illusion! The members of Poker may care for one another, that is why you were all angered when someone died! However! Have you ever thought about whether your boss cared?! Wake up from your dream! Turn back when you still can! Do you know how many innocent lives had been killed because of your boss?!"
Initially, Five of Clubs was reluctant to look at Mo Xi because he felt that looking at Mo Xi reminded him of those that had died. However, he eventually looked up as he wanted to glare at Mo Xi. That was when he looked into Mo Xi's eyes and understood what Mo Xi meant.
After a moment of silence.
"… The only thing I know about him is that his name is Zhou Dong… Only the higher-ups know who he really is…"
"Did your boss sent you all to harm someone twenty-three years ago?"
"I haven't joined at that time, because our people change every ten years. However, I did hear from the others that twenty years ago, Poker was very active."
"How long have Poker been around?"
"I think it has been around for half a century."
Mo Xi was stunned by the time Poker had been around, fifty-years would mean that there are five sets of Poker! That is more than two hundred people!!
"Where are the older generations of Poker?"
"I am not sure. I only know that most of the first three generations of Poker died."
"Why and how?"
"I heard that about thirty years ago, Poker was nearly wiped out during a battle with the militaries."
"Are the leftover older generations of Poker still involved?"
"They are the elders of Poker, they don't necessarily participate."
…
Mo Xi continued to ask him questions while looking into his eyes as she determined if he spoke the truth.
"It seems like you are clever enough to speak the truth! Who else have you harmed before?"
"Apart from the few of you when we met five years ago, old Ji is the first one. We have been inactive for the past five years and five years ago was the first time when the newer batch joined… Two months ago, Boss did send a few people to kill a girl, but I wasn't involved in it…"
"Why did your Boss send you all to kill the girl?"
"He didn't really tell us why, but I heard something along the lines of his people want it. However, I have never seen Boss's face before…"
"You should be glad that nothing happened to my men! If not, the first thing that I did would be to kill you and not talk with you!" Mo Xi said coldly, and she walked out of the interrogation room.
"We won't let you go out, staying here is safer for you than outside. With the fact that you hadn't harmed anyone else, you would at least not be killed in jail. However, if we let you out, I am sure your boss would kill you. That was what happened to the other few…" Mo Xi said and closed the door.
Mo Xi had let other members of Poker off before, however, they were killed by the higher-ups of Poker. She let the other members of Poker off because she knew they were kind at heart but was forced to do those stuff, so she wanted to give them a new chance at life. She wasn't a holy mother, if they had done loads of evil deeds, she would not have let them off. Those that were let off, hadn't done much, so she released them but left a tracking device on them. However, the moment they were found, the higher-ups of Poker killed them.
