Chapter 178: Trading, Gambling (1)
At more than two o'clock in the morning, the lights were still bright in an empty room of Sun Suhe's house. On the table, there was a bowl of clear soup noodles, a plate of braised beef, and a hot spring egg.
"Master, do you still have this hand, I really underestimate you, this is one of my sister's top ten magic skills, "the next bowl of noodles for you to eat", I am almost moved by you. ”
Sun Suhe sat across the table, staring at Zhuang Fengyu with a frosty expression, he never thought that a prisoner under the steps could take the initiative so leisurely. Alice and Master Tanuki watched all this in another room, but all they could do was watch Zhuang Fengyu eat noodles, and a cloud of helpless frustration lingered in the hearts of the two of them and a cat.
After reaching a consensus on cooperation with Master Tanuki, they immediately interrogated Zhuang Fengyu. But the response to a normal inquiry is either silence or rambling, and no useful information is obtained at all.
And the plan of the old man Tanuki to use some extraordinary means to forcibly interrogate him also failed at the beginning. Because Zhuang Fengyu's physical condition is even weaker than imagined, he was still a lightning-moving and murderous master before, but now he has become Lin Daiyu who is weak and supportive.
Master Tanuki was extremely cautious, but as soon as he used his means, before he could get any information, Zhuang Fengyu's body was already injured and unconscious, and after trying it twice, he could only give up temporarily because the risk was too great.
Zhuang Fengyu spoke calmly throughout the whole process, smiling brightly, and even mentioned that he was hungry because he ate dinner too early just now.
"If I starve to death because I can't eat, the owner will be very troubled. In a word, Sun Suhe had to help her make a bowl of noodles.
"Is that enough? There's still half a bowl of noodle soup in the pot. Sun Suhe tried not to show any emotion, and asked lightly, although it was not easy, Sun Suhe knew that anger and impatience were useless, and exposing the emotions in her heart would make her see through her hands and feet even more. There is not a moment when the psychological game and contest are not in progress.
"No, it's easy to gain weight if you eat too much, and it's hard to lose weight. ”
"Really? Then you eat slowly. We finish eating and continue. Sun Suhe turned around and left the room.
This conversation seems to be very ordinary, but in this case, it comes out of the mouths of the two people, an interrogator who makes noodles and soup, and a dying person who cares about his body, and there is really a kind of black humor that makes people laugh.
Sun Suhe entered the surveillance room and said calmly: "Master Tanuki, you can try again when she finishes eating." ”
"No, I can't. Alice immediately and firmly rejected the offer. "It's not that you didn't see how dangerous it was just now, it won't work. ”
Old Man Tanuki also shook his head and stroked his beard in distress. "Even if you're willing to take the risk, as things stand, if you use some drastic tactics, she'll probably die before she can get useful information. Although she says that she has no value as a hostage, she is more useful to us alive than dead. ”
Sun Suhe pulled a chair over and sat down suddenly, "Is there really no way at all?"
At this moment, Sun Suhe's mobile phone suddenly rang. He casually touched it out and looked at it, and suddenly his spirit was lifted, and even the hand holding the mobile phone tightened unconsciously. The screen showed that the caller was none other than Cai Xunru. It turned out that Lao Cai was carrying a mobile phone, so wouldn't the person on the other end of the phone be ......
Sun Suhe immediately turned the phone screen back to Alice and Master Tanuki.
"I took it. ”
"Hmm. Alice and Tanuki glanced at each other, and at the same time gathered their spirits and nodded solemnly.
Sun Suhe put the phone on the table, turned on the speakerphone, set the recording, and then pressed the connect button.
"I ask for a trade...... "A deep male voice came from the other end of the phone with a slight indistinctness.
Sun Suhe interrupted him without hesitation, "Who are you?" let Cai Xunru talk to me. ”
The man completely ignored Sun Suhe's words, and continued to himself: "Give you three instructions before trading, if you don't obey, I'll kill Cai Xunru now." ”
Sun Suhe's mind changed sharply, the timing of this phone call was too strange, if the other party wanted to exchange hostages, then they had the contact information, and they should have called from the beginning.
The other party's failure to do so means that there are two possibilities, one is that as Zhuang Fengyu said, she has no value as a hostage, and the other party does not care about Zhuang Fengyu's life. The second is that the other party is confident that we can't help Zhuang Fengyu, but this helplessness is based on the fact that Zhuang Fengyu made a huge sacrifice and only has eight days left to live.
In other words, in either case, Zhuang Fengyu's value as a bargaining chip is very small. On the contrary, our side must rescue Cai Xunru. The difference in chips will be a fatal weakness in trading. If the other side knows this, we will completely lose the initiative and be completely led by the nose.
Fortunately, Little Bear and Master Tanuki are the unexpected factors that suddenly break in. Therefore, even Cai Xunru himself could not have imagined that he is so important to us now. Estimate how much we are willing to pay to save himself.
So this has to be put to good use.
It has been several hours now, and the other party called at this time, and it is likely that they hit a nail on Cai Xunru. Just like we can't help Zhuang Fengyu, they can't get what they want from Cai Xunru.
And he took the initiative to call and contact, which showed that the thing was bound to be obtained by him.
In other words, in the eyes of the other side, we are the ones who have a lot of leverage.
So he deliberately spoke in such an extremely strong tone, the purpose was to test our true attitude and test Cai Xunru's value as a bargaining chip.
In this case, if you want to take the initiative at this time, Sun Su closed his finger and pressed the phone without hesitation.
"What are you doing?" asked the old man in a loud voice with his eyes wide open like copper bells.
"Shhhh Sun Suhe and Alice made a gesture in unison, signaling Master Tanuki to calm down.
"Don't worry, he'll call back. ”
The mobile phone rang quickly again, Sun Suhe reconnected, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Your attitude is very bad, I agree to make a deal, but you have to figure out your position." What you say is not an instruction, but a request, and it is up to me to decide whether you agree or not. ”
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, "Interesting, I can change the wording of 'indicate', but instead of "request", it will be "request". ”
Sun Suhe knew that his pressure had been successful, although it was only a little bit, but the initiative had indeed leaned towards our side.
And then on. ”
