Chapter 96: The Game of Psychology

Bao Zheng looked at these black boxes, but strange thoughts flashed through his mind. Including traveling from the 21st century, today he has allowed him to see the true power of cold weapons. The advanced equipment can increase combat power to an unprecedented level. Just like a martial arts master like Chen Qiong, he has no power to resist in front of advanced weapons like Punching the Sky Arrow Rain.

Just as Bao Zheng thanked Kou and planned to continue to rush to Kaifeng Prefecture, a galloping horse rushed over to Kaifeng Prefecture.[]

The man riding a horse came to Bao Zheng, but turned over and dismounted. Bao Zheng saw his outfit and knew that he was an imperial guard from Kaifeng Mansion. The imperial guard clasped his fists at Bao Zheng and said, "Sir Bao, there is now a group of black-clothed assassins sneaking into it in the yamen prison. Please go back quickly."

When Bao Zheng heard the man's words, he immediately borrowed a few horses from Kou Sui. Bao Zheng and the other five immediately rushed to the Kaifeng Prefecture Office. When Kou Sui saw something happening in the Kaifeng Prefecture Office, he also followed Kou Tang's people closely. Bao Zheng was already very close to the Kaifeng Prefecture Office, and within a short while he had arrived at the door of the Kaifeng Prefecture Office.

When Bao Zheng arrived at the Kaifeng Prefecture yamen, the imperial guards team in front of the yamen were still not moving at all. The men in black who were robbing prison did ignore the mighty imperial guards in the Ming Dynasty and headed straight for the empty prison. This time, the empty city plan was extremely successful.

By the time Bao Zheng arrived at the prison, Lin Yan had already come over and left. Bao Zheng asked anxiously: "How many people have entered the prison?"

Lin Yan smiled and said, "This time the ** formation was indeed effective. At least more than 30 people in black rushed in, and none of them have come out yet."

Bao Zheng said seriously: "The effect of being confused is time limit. If they wake up, it will be troublesome. Be sure to rush in and arrest them before they wake up."

Gongsun Ce reminded on the side: "Now that the smoke is full of smoke. If we send someone to rush in, we will definitely be filled with smoke."

Kou Sui, who was following him, said: "This is simple. As long as we moisten the cloth with water and cover it on our faces, we can resist the smoke-loving moments. This time is enough to catch the group of people who are confused by smoke-loving."

Bao Zheng saw the Kaifeng government yamen runners surrounded by him fearing their heads and knew that if they wanted to let them go in and catch people, they would be afraid that they would not be able to do anything more than to defeat them. Bao Zheng immediately said to Kou Sui: "Brother Kou, the people of Kou Tang you led are well-trained and just went in to catch those madmen who intended to rob the prison."

Kou Sui nodded, and immediately nodded dozens of Kou Tang's people, covered their mouths and noses with wet cloth, and rushed into the prison. In a short while, he dragged dozens of people in black all over his body out.

Bao Zheng asked those men in black to tie their hands and feet, and then took the mask on their faces. After Bao Zheng looked at their faces one by one, he showed a look of disappointment. Among these masked people, there was no Liu Jiwu who Bao Zheng speculated that it might appear. It seemed that Liu Jiwu was still extremely cautious and would not take risks easily.

Bao Zheng called the group of yamen runners on the side and ordered: "Bind all of these prisoners in prison and take them to the side hall of the court. Then send someone to remove the smoke from the prison and check if there are any people inside!"

Dozens of men in black were tied up and dragged to the court. Bao Zheng decided to conduct a night trial of these people. As long as these men in black were there, Bao Zheng had some ways to confess that they were sent by the Liu family to rob the prison.

When he was promoted to the hall late at night, the court was a little gloomy, and an unprecedented sense of majesty was presented in the hall. The yamen runners lined up, and Bao Zheng took all the men in black to the side hall first, but someone brought one of them to the trial.

Including in the 21st century, he once studied "Game Theory" by John Nash, a Nobel Prize winner in economics. He knew deeply that if a criminal gang wanted to confess, it would never be heard in a unified manner. Under a unified examination, they would easily become a rope and would rather die than follow. If they want to destroy their will to resist, they must separate them so that their messages cannot be communicated. Everyone is born with doubts about other people. As long as there is such doubt, Bao Zheng can use their psychology to break through their psychological defenses.

A moment later, the first man in black was brought in. At this time, the confusion he suffered had already been relieved. He looked at Bao Zheng with a firm face and said viciously: "Don't think of asking anything from my mouth. I won't tell you anything!"

Bao Zheng smiled and said calmly: "I don't want to hit you now. If you don't say it, I won't force you to say it. Prison robbery is a serious crime. Among you thirty people, as long as who confesses first, I will save him from death and let him live. Those who do not confess will be sentenced to 360 swords, or shall be executed by Lingchi, or fried, or boiled in water! The most severe punishment in the world, I will give him some punishment. Let those who do not confess taste the power of the Kaifeng government office!" Bao Zheng's face deliberately showed a hint of hideousness.

After Bao Zheng finished speaking, he said to Gongsun Ce beside him: "Please ask Brother Gongsun to prepare thirty black rooms and take him to a black room. I want to give him two hours to think about it. Now it is almost two hours before dawn. It is best for these prisoners to carefully consider whether to live or die miserably. You can only choose one of the two."

Gongsun Ce, Kou Sui, Lin Yan, and everyone in the hall originally thought that Bao Zheng would be punished. Unexpectedly, Bao Zheng simply said such a painful word to the prisoner, and no one knew what Bao Zheng sold in the gourd.

Gongsun Ce took the yamen runners to prepare thirty rooms. Bao Zheng then brought the thirty men in black to the hall one by one, and they just said something simple to them without any pain.

After seeing Bao Zheng locking all thirty men in black into the black room in turn, Dong Xianxian finally couldn't help asking: "Bao Lang, which one did you play? If you don't torture them, how could they be willing to take action?"

Bao Zheng smiled and said, "Sometimes, great punishment is not a good trick! This group of people has obviously been trained. It is extremely difficult to force confessions to the extreme. I guess we are all lenient and this group of people will not let go. Moreover, if these people are really sent by Liu Chenggui, they will definitely have a handle in Liu Chenggui's hands and will definitely not admit it."

Everyone nodded after hearing Bao Zheng's analysis. Bao Zheng smiled slightly at this time and then said, "Now, for all the prisoners, I, Bao Zheng, will keep the information of the confessor confidential, and when he lets him live, I will find a substitute to go to the court to execute him. The people behind them will never know that he was betrayal and confession!"

Bao Zheng's first round of words was passed down. Kou Sui looked admiring at this moment and clasped his fists and said, "Brother Bao, the way you interrogate the prisoner is really special! Kou Tang will also learn more from it in the future."

Bao Zheng muttered in his heart: I learned this psychological tactic from famous American scientists, but FBI has been tried and tested. It was still difficult for the ancients to understand this kind of psychology.

Bao Zheng waited for a while and saw that there was no effect, so he continued: "Then he passed the message and said that the first five confessors were allowed to survive! Those who did not confess will continue to aggravate the criminal law and will punish three generations!"

The message had just ended, Bao Zheng said: "Now, bring a person out of a dark room. When you bring someone out, make some noise and let the others know. And tell the rest of the people, just say that the people in Room No. 15 have confessed. I already know who the instructor behind the scenes is, but I am grateful that they were coerced by others and gave four people the opportunity to commit crimes and make meritorious service. All the others were executed in a stern manner! Kill three generations!"

A moment later, one person was taken away from the thirty rooms, and the other twenty-nine people didn't know who confessed. At this time, sweat was rolling down their heads, and they were in a complex ideological struggle. Some of them had already confessed first, and there were four chances to survive, and there were no worries after they survived. This temptation was too great, but most people still did not dare to take the first step of surrender.

Bao Zheng then took one person away from the room. Regardless of whether this person confessed or not, the pressure in the remaining people began to increase, because they knew that every time they took one person away, it meant that the chance of survival was decreasing. Every time they took one person away, it also meant that one person chose to surrender. When the remaining people chose to surrender, the pressure in their hearts would also be reduced. Bao Zheng cleverly used their psychological game to destroy their will from the heart.

People were constantly taking away. When they took away the fourth person, one of them finally couldn't help but surrendered! Hearing the yamen runners coming to report the news of someone surrendering, a smile of victory flashed on Bao Zheng's face.
