Chapter 1688: Chapter 1688: Full Cooperation
The person who came in was quite unexpected, Ji Lingkong!
Jun Yiyi showed a surprised expression. She had initially thought it would be a military officer or someone from the interrogation department, but to her surprise, it was him. What exactly was his identity? How could he be so powerful as to bring her to the Aus Empire without using diplomatic channels?
He must be a high-ranking and influential figure within the Aus government, otherwise, he wouldn’t have such authority!
But compared to being interrogated by a stranger, she was more pleased to see him, though she couldn’t quite explain why she was happy.
Upon seeing him again, there was a subtle sense of joy and anticipation in her heart.
Moreover, having danced together before, they could be considered acquaintances. He should be more friendly towards her than those other unknown officers.
Jun Yiyi gave him a slight smile and compliantly sat on the sofa opposite him.
"Come on, whatever you want to ask, I’ll cooperate fully and tell you everything." She knew it was wise to adapt to the situation, and she wasn’t foolish either. After the assassination attempt on the Councilman’s wife, the incident had stirred up a lot, and the Aus Empire would definitely investigate thoroughly.
By cooperating sincerely now, she hoped to help them unravel the whole thing so she could extricate herself.
Ji Lingkong, seeing her smile, had a flicker of deep surprise cross his face. His eyes revealed a complex expression, but his lips turned cold almost immediately.
"It seems you’re well ’prepared,’ so I won’t beat around the bush. What’s your relationship with that assassin?"
"The relationship of a kidnapper and their hostage," Jun Yiyi replied with a hint of a gritted tone. She wasn’t lying. If Fengye Wuyin’s people hadn’t inexplicably snatched her off the square, she wouldn’t have been so unfortunate to fall into this situation.
As for that scoundrel Fengye Wuyin, he ultimately ran off on his own.
"He kidnapped you?" Ji Lingkong was clearly surprised by this answer, though his dark eyes still bore traces of skepticism. "Explain every detail of how this happened."
Jun Yiyi felt no guilt in betraying Fengye Wuyin. Obviously, he had forcibly brought her here and repeatedly threatened her with death to coerce her into obeying him. It was already generous of her not to tear him apart.
Now that the matter was exposed, there was no expectation for the Eldest Miss to loyally and steadfastly keep his secrets unto death.
Preserving her own life was most important.
Therefore, Jun Yiyi meticulously revealed everything about how Lino captured her and delivered her to Fengye Wuyin.
"So, truly, this matter has nothing to do with me. It was Lino and Fengye who captured me and forced me to accompany them to the banquet. I had no idea they would be so bold as to attempt to assassinate the Councilman’s wife."
If she had known Fengye Wuyin had such an earth-shattering plan in mind, she would never have attended the banquet, even if it killed her.
This kind of political conspiracy was lethal to those involved; she wasn’t stupid.
Listening to her complete confession, Ji Lingkong’s gaze grew deeper, showing no emotion: "He asked you for help, and you cooperated so obediently? Even without knowing his real intentions, you helped him with all your strength?"
Jun Yiyi glared, annoyed: "Please, he has a gun and kills people without a second thought. Could I refuse? If I didn’t obediently do as he said, I wouldn’t be keeping my head, let alone expect him to have the audacity to sneak in and murder so blatantly."
"Do you know their true identity?"
"I’m not very clear either, only that the two of them are Major Generals from Eagle Country, one named Fengye and the other Lino." That devil was quite cautious, not revealing too much information. It wasn’t until the last moment that she realized his true intention.
