To fulfill the needs of the plot, Saint Karina didn't forget to handcuff Virginia.
To ensure she fit her identity, Saint Karina used magic to don a police uniform, tying her white hair into a strong, professional ponytail. This made her feminine features appear more heroic, clean, and capable.
She held a pen and a notebook in her hand, showing her serious work attitude.
"The previous checks were just basic checks. Now, before the final check, there is a routine questioning process. Confessing will be treated leniently, and resisting will be punished severely. If you tell me where the items are hidden now, I will stop the final check."
As Saint Karina said this, she deliberately traced two lines with her pen in the deepest and darkest places.
It's like this pen is a calligraphy brush, with black ink in the deepest and darkest places, which can dye white black.
"Alright, let's begin the questioning. First question: How many times did the little snake attack you?"
"I...I can't remember."
Virginie had no intention of answering such a trivial question.
She felt that Saint Karina was humiliating her and showing off, and if she could, she wouldn't want to pay any attention to her at all.
However, she couldn't ignore the threat posed by the pen from before, because it was still occasionally wobbling.
"This kind of question and answer won't work. Think carefully, maybe you'll remember something later."
"In fact, because my mind was foggy, I had a hard time recalling the details of the attack. I wasn't even clear on how much time had passed."
Virginia answered shyly.
"Judging from this, your physical condition is quite poor. You can't even withstand this little bit of stimulation."
You're the one who's terrible!
"You're not good enough, not even a woman," Virginia retorted unhappily.
“I am a criminal investigator, and you are a criminal. A subordinate cannot talk back to a superior.”
So, after saying that, Saint Karina gently kissed him.
This is a response to Virginie's backtalk. Subordinates cannot talk back to superiors, but superiors can kiss subordinates on the lips.
"Hey!"
In just a short while, Virginia was kissed until her face turned red.
This is standard interrogation procedure, very proper. Many criminal investigators have to resort to some underhanded methods to get the results they want.
First, a search is a coercive method used by judicial authorities to search and inspect the body, belongings, residence, and other relevant places of the defendant and others who may be hiding criminals or evidence of crimes in order to obtain evidence of a crime and apprehend criminals.
In order to ascertain the facts of a case, gather evidence, identify and apprehend criminal suspects, and hold them criminally liable, investigative authorities employ a series of specialized investigative methods and coercive measures in accordance with the law.
In the execution of arrest or detention, a search may be conducted without a search warrant in the following emergency situations:
1. He may be carrying a weapon;
2. May contain dangerous materials such as explosives or highly toxic substances;
3. Possibly concealing, destroying, or transferring criminal evidence;
4. May conceal other criminal suspects;
5. Other sudden emergencies.
The circumstances of the search should be recorded in a search record, which should be signed or sealed by the investigators, the person whose body was searched, or other witnesses.
The so-called "special investigation work" refers to the interrogation, inquiry, inspection, examination, search, seizure of physical or documentary evidence, appraisal, and issuance of arrest warrants conducted in accordance with the law to complete investigative tasks.
The so-called "relevant coercive measures" include "two categories," namely the coercive nature inherent in many specialized investigative work such as interrogation, search, seizure, and warrant issuance.
Second, there are coercive measures specifically applicable to criminal suspects, such as summons, release on bail pending trial, residential surveillance, detention, and arrest.
The main task of investigation is to ascertain the facts of the case.
Investigative activities are mainly carried out during the investigation stage, but during the prosecution and trial stages, if it is believed that the facts of the case still need to be further clarified, supplementary investigations may be conducted in accordance with the law.
"Did you know that criminal behavior is both a human act and a material movement? This means that criminal behavior will inevitably leave traces of the crime."
Criminal traces accurately reflect the various characteristics of the criminal act that created them, storing comprehensive information about the crime and providing theoretical and material evidence for investigation. Investigators can use this information to understand the criminal act.
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
Virginia blushed and glared at Saint Karina a few times, her face flushed with anger.
She was so angry she jumped up and down. The other person was clearly taking advantage of her, yet they were speaking so seriously.
Unfortunately, the room, the atmosphere, the other person's clothes, and my own disheveled state all made the other person's pretense of seriousness seem quite convincing.
"What can I say? Okay, second question, when I kissed you just now, did you feel anything exciting? Like an electric current running down your spine, or a very strong heartbeat that you couldn't ignore?"
Saint Karina was completely feigning ignorance.
Seeing this only fueled her anger, making her so furious she wanted Virginia to rush up and bite the other woman a few times.
"no!"
She denied it outright.
"Hey."
But soon, she let out a soft moan. Because in the deepest, darkest place, a mischievous pen had already entered the tip of the pen.
The feeling terrified her; she wanted to get away, but couldn't escape, and it made her sweat profusely.
Comfort was out of the question; Virginia just wanted to end this absurd interrogation immediately.
259. Magical Interrogation
"You're lying. Tell the truth now, or else... you know what will happen."
Saint Karina's threatening words rang in his ears, along with the pen that seemed to say "I'll kill you."
Both this person and this pen were entities that Virginie greatly feared.
“I was indeed lying just now. Actually, what you described…those feelings were real.”
Virginie hesitated, but eventually admitted it.
"several times?"
“There is always one.”
After this series of actions, she sweated even more, her whole body drenched in sweat. Even in the darkest, deepest places, she was sweating profusely, almost completely soaking the pen.
"To be honest, does this feeling occur every time I do the same thing?"
"Although I don't want to admit it, it really happens every time."
"One last question: Do you want to free yourself?"
"no thanks."
Virginie resolutely refused.
She had no doubt that if she agreed, the pen would not just be placed at the tip, but the entire pen would be placed into the deepest, darkest place.
"Hmm, we haven't gotten enough information yet. We need to check your personal belongings."
It was called an examination, but it really just meant making Virginia lie down properly on the table.
"Don't worry, I won't break you. This pen has a camera inside, right at the tip. As long as I find what I want in the deepest darkness, it will all be over. If I don't find it, you'll be released without charge."
Therefore, even if Virginie chose to refuse, she could not escape her fate.
The pen eventually ventured into the deepest, darkest depths, beginning its arduous journey through the darkness, diligently exploring, meticulously photographing, and providing the two with real-time footage.
The imagery is transmitted through magic, much like a projection.
However, because it was raining continuously in the deepest and darkest place, the exploration went surprisingly smoothly, and Virginia's body quickly adapted to the intensity.
"Even if you're engrossed in it, I won't make fun of you."
Even during the exploration, Saint Karina's hands were never idle; she would never let such a gem be tarnished.
In fact, the two-pronged approach was truly effective. Especially when guiding a novice like Virginia with little experience, she quickly became immersed in the patient, instructional development methods of St. Karina. Although she felt ashamed of the exploration process being broadcast live from the inside out, the feeling of being directly observed actually excited her even more.
Her senses came quickly; under Saint Karina's skillful manipulation, she was very easily aroused.
However, that makes sense... If a complete novice were to do this, the brute force would probably be unacceptable to most people.
Rather than exploration, failing to complete the preliminary steps leads to carelessness. Most of the time, what seems like good, straightforward, high-speed, and stable movements resemble a pile driver or a violent plumber clearing pipes.
"Can you please stop..."
Girls are supposed to be reserved. Even if her virginity wouldn't be taken away by a tiny pen, and Saint Karina gave her enough face, Virginia still maintained her opposition and resistance.
Regarding biology, a science subject, she would rather fail forever than improve her score through practical exercises and become a top scorer in biology.
"No, but if you're scared, I can use the little snake to help you. It's much more comfortable than a cold, impersonal machine."
Saint Karina refused without hesitation.
Letting Virginia go won't do any good. Once she gets off the ship, she'll immediately sever all ties with her and disappear, never to be seen again in this lifetime.
Why would Saint Karina agree to that? There are so many fun things to do; the more the merrier.
Moreover, generally speaking, investigators do not possess Saint Karina's magical eye, which allows them to instantly see the past and future within a certain timeframe by touching key objects.
In fact, when investigators hear about or witness the cause and process of a case, they only see the criminal result left by the criminal act. Sometimes they don't even see the result itself, but only know that the result has occurred from relevant information materials.
This means that investigators cannot understand a case in a forward-looking manner, but can only understand its occurrence and development in a reverse manner, moving from the result to the cause, and gradually uncovering the cause and effect of the case.
In real life, things always develop in a sequential manner; the cause occurs first, and the effect follows. One phenomenon is the cause of a certain result, and that result, in turn, becomes the cause of another result.
People come to know things by hearing and seeing the cause and effect of something. That is, they see the cause first and then the result, and know that the result was caused by a certain cause. Therefore, this kind of understanding can be called forward understanding.
In the process of reverse investigation, investigators start from existing evidence, and based on the connections between things, correctly apply logical thinking methods such as concepts, judgments, and reasoning, and take various investigative measures and criminal information to confirm or refute various investigative hypotheses. This process is repeated, constantly revised, and refined to eliminate the crude and retain the true, ultimately achieving the goal of understanding the truth of the case.
Retrospective reasoning refers to inferring the cause of an event from its result. It does not involve actually seeing the truth of what happened.
In the causal relationships of the objective world, when a result occurs, its cause already exists and has taken effect; at this point, the causal relationship is already real and fixed.
Because causal relationships are sequential in time, with the cause preceding the effect, reasoning that infers the cause from the effect exhibits a reverse chronological nature.
Retrospective reasoning plays a crucial role in criminal investigation. In essence, the process of investigating a criminal case is a retrospective reasoning process of "reconstructing" the criminal act based on the criminal information stored in the criminal traces.
"He seems to be growing well."
The little snake coiled around a pebble, a small and cute pebble formed over many years by rain and waves.
At the same time, it was also a tactic Saint Karina used to get Virginia to be more honest.
"The little snake said it felt pretty good. There was no strange smell, only a faint, warm, and yang energy flowing into its body. And the unique salt-like white particles of the pebble that had been washed by water for many years and stranded on the shallows made this delicate, small, pink pebble taste salty."
"Who...who told you to go and taste it?"
Perhaps thinking of Saint Karina's bold actions, Virginia's face turned even redder than a sunset.
However, she quite enjoyed it; at least the food was new, and the little snake was truly amazing. Its uses were endless.
260. Dark Training
"I think it tastes great, of course I should eat more. What do you think?"
"You're asking a question you already know the answer to, you bastard!"
Virginia started swearing.
She couldn't bear it anymore, and she didn't want to bear it any longer. That place had already been explored, and all her compromises had come to nothing.
"It seems like there's nothing there."
"There wasn't one to begin with."
Saint Karina wore a regretful expression, but inside she was overjoyed.
"What a pity, it was hidden too well, this is the only way to find it."
"Miss Dalia, this is your first time, isn't it? Don't worry, I'll be very gentle."
Saint Karina focused white light at her fingertips—a magic to heal the curse, a sacred power extracted only from the holy water of the saintess. Next, she would place her fingers into the deepest, darkest place to break the curse.
"Um……"
A streak of red light appeared in the darkness, followed by endless white, breaking through the darkness and ushering in daylight.
Virginia was completely oblivious to everything else. She had been teased by Saint Karina for a long time, and now she had reached the pinnacle of her life.
