”If you still refuse to cooperate, next time it will be your ear!” Ali pulled out her dagger and traced the sharp end of her knife along Deqing's jaw. Deqing was scared out of his wits. Perhaps it was the irony of life, but usually the more heartless one treated another, the more likely that one turned out to be a coward. They treated other people's lives like nothing, but they valued their own life very much. For the sake of living, they would promise anything.

Deqing nodded without thinking. ”I will tell you everything! But what do you want to know? Haven't you discovered everything about the orphanage?”

”How do you send the children to that place every time?” Xinghe suddenly asked. Deqing was taken aback before realizing what she was referring to. Suddenly he realized how much he had underestimated this woman. She was not going to let the smallest detail go unnoticed, she was going to squeeze every drop of information she could out of him…

”Speak!” Deqing felt the cold steel of Ali's dagger touch his neck. He blurted out subconsciously, ”They sent the people to get the children, I only needed to arrange some people to follow along with them.”

”What else?”

”That's all. I am only responsible to cultivate the children, I have no dealings beyond that.”

Xinghe nodded and continued to ask, ”How many children will die in a year?”

Deqing answered truthfully, ”Only a few, not many.”

”How many is a few?” Xinghe raised her brow.

Deqing answered after taking a gulp, ”One or two orphans will die every year, I swear.”

”Looks like you have not learnt your lesson, cut down one of his ears!” Xinghe suddenly ordered.

Ali's grip on her dagger tightened when Deqing added frantically, ”There are four or five, there cannot be too many of them, or we would be discovered. We cannot risk that!”
