Jiang Yao looked at Ye Xueli coldly and said, âItâs pointless to have only words without evidence. Youâre not afraid because you think we donât have evidence against you. Whatâs the difference between these thoughts and pulling a knife to kill someone?â
âI didnât do anything. I wouldnât admit to anything even if you were to kill me.â
Ye Xueli gritted her teeth and glared at Jiang Yao. âDonât simply accuse me just because you think youâre the victim.â
âAlright, I wonât simply accuse you.â
Jiang Yao took a pocket watch from her pocket and said, âHave you seen a movie about hypnosis? That is one of the psychotherapy methods in the medical field. Coincidentally, hypnosis is also used in criminal investigations abroad.â
âWhat do you mean?â
Ye Xueliâs expression darkened. Everyone heard of hypnosis, and most people would have watched the famous movie about it. That was how they learned of the word.
âMrs. Lu, you know hypnosis? Thatâs so cool! âXiao Shan said with a shocked expression.
Jiang Yao smiled and waved the pocket watch in her hand. âHypnosis can make people tell the truth. Do you dare let me hypnotize you?
Ye Xueli had also seen the movie; she would not dare let her do that.
She feared she would reveal her hidden thoughts after Jiang Yao hypnotized her.
She did not even dare to look at the pocket watch in Jiang Yaoâs hand. She was afraid she would fall into Jiang Yaoâs trap if she took another look. Therefore, she was scared. She wanted to turn around and run away. However, the matter would not end just because she ran away.
âYou said that you are innocent.
Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows and said, âThen let me hypnotize you. There are so many people here, and the chief is also here. Even if I hypnotize you, I wonât be able to do anything bad to you. Iâd ask you if you were the one who spread the rumor. It wonât take two minutes. Rest assured about my skills in hypnotism. Iâm an expert, and it hasnât failed me yet.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jiang Yao moved closer to Ye Xueli. She whispered into her ear, âDo you really think youâd be able to escape if I wanted to hypnotize you? Iâll catch you off guard. We donât have to do this today. I can hypnotize you in front of the entire army so that you can admit to spreading those vicious rumors about me. I can also turn you into a retard, just like in the movie.â
Jiang Yaoâs voice was very soft. No one could hear her words except for Ye Xueli.
...
However, they could see the change in Ye Xueliâs expression. Her face was as pale as a piece of paper in an instant.
Before Jiang Yao could finish speaking, Ye Xueli broke down first.
âI admit it! I admit it! It was me who said it! It was me!â Then, she covered her face and ran away while crymg. However, she tripped at the doorsill and fell. She did not have time to register the pain, but she got up and continued runnmg.
Jiang Yaoâs voice was cold. Ye Xueli thought she had hypnotized her into the crazy person in the movies. The character could no longer think rationally. He would bang his head against the wall until it bled. He would do it daily as if he knew no pain. He did that until he had a bloodied wound on his head. He knew he would die, but he jammed his finger into the wound until he was finally gone..
