The Wiretap movie begins with a textbook interrogation. The entire interrogation process was very rigorous, with clear thinking and careful logic. Has the consistent craftsmanship of the Germans. Stasi agent Weisman is both an expert in interrogation and an instructor at the secret police academy.

Below, he will teach you four ways to see through each other's lies:

First, if you can change the posture of the suspect's resistance, you can make the other party open up and tell the truth.

As soon as the suspect took his seat, he put on a resisting posture, giving the interrogator a sense of oppression, trying to deal with the other party.

Agent Stasi then asked the suspect to put his hands under his thighs, palms down.

This gesture is to make the suspect subconsciously give up resistance.

Second, try asking the same things on different occasions and times. If the answer is different, the other person is lying

In order to obtain information, the Stasi agents extended the interrogation time, deprived the suspect of sleep, and kept asking about the situation on September 28.

Agent Weisman believes that an innocent person will be furious, irritable, and scream because of this unfair treatment.

And a real criminal will become quiet, silent, and even cry over time.

In addition, Baidu Encyclopedia mentions that "people who lack sleep will have a reduced ability to think, their alertness and judgment will be weakened." This will make the suspect more obedient, lose their resistance, and get the information they need.

Third, if the suspect answers exactly the same every time, it means he is lying

Agent Weisman said that with each questioning, the truth-teller would change the sentence structure at will, while the liar would just keep repeating the same words.

Because in the tense and depressing environment of the interrogation room, the suspect can only think of the simplest and most direct answer.

Fourth, put pressure on the suspect to force the other party to tell the truth

Actually intimidation. This is for the timid liar, it's of no use at all if the other person is bold.

These are the four ways to see through each other's lies, which can be used alone or in combination.

If you want to become an expert in lying, I recommend you watch Female Drummer. Charlie is the best liar, both in expression and tone.

If you want to learn more about ways to see through lies, I recommend you "My Counterintelligence Career" by Oleister Pinto (Netherlands). The author is an agent with 30 years of counterintelligence experience.

If you want to learn about interrogation methods in other countries, I recommend Cardinals.

    Germans are a kind of plant, not swaying when the wind is calm, and sometimes quietly like a machine. Once their hearts were awakened by art, a certain crazy power began to sway wildly, devouring the dead shell until it was reborn inside, and then sealed by the violent winter snow, and life was still. #剧情cadence of God#

    There is a big loophole. It is reasonable to be searched for the first time. No matter who it is, the typewriter will be disposed of immediately.

The Lives of Others quotes

  • Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: An innocent prisoner will become more angry by the hour due to the injustice suffered. He will shout and rage. A guilty prisoner becomes more calm and quiet. Or he cries. He knows he's there for a reason. The best way to establish guilt or innocence is non-stop interrogation.

  • Oberstleutnant Anton Grubitz: I have to show you something: "Prison Conditions for Subversive Artists: Based on Character Profile". Pretty scientific, eh? And look at this: "Dissertation Supervisor, A. Grubitz". That's great, isn't it? I only gave him a B. They shouldn't think getting a doctorate with me is easy. But his is first-class. Did you know that there are just five types of artists? Your guy, Dreyman, is a Type 4, a "hysterical anthropocentrist." Can't bear being alone, always talking, needing friends. That type should never be brought to trial. They thrive on that. Temporary detention is the best way to deal with them. Complete isolation and no set release date. No human contact the whole time, not even with the guards. Good treatment, no harassment, no abuse, no scandals, nothing they could write about later. After 10 months, we release. Suddenly, that guy won't cause us any more trouble. Know what the best part is? Most type 4s we've processed in this way never write anything again. Or paint anything, or whatever artists do. And that without any use of force. Just like that. Kind of like a present.
