Chapter 363 It's not easy to pretend to be stupid
An Feng's eyes were glazed, and he muttered in his mouth: "Eat, eat......"
With a sarcastic look, the young man gently put the can in An Feng's palm, An Feng immediately sat up impatiently, frantically fumbling for the key next to the can, his hand was unsteady, trembling non-stop, it was easy to open the can, he sniffed the fragrance in the can and took a deep breath, and then tried to control his trembling hands, gently grabbed the lunch piece of meat - began to gobble up bite, gnaw, swallow in embarrassment.
At this time, An Feng praised himself in his heart - I acted really well.
Luncheon meat is lamb's ...... Well, it's actually mutton-flavored luncheon meat, which has too much flour, too many spices, and very few meat ingredients, purely using gum arabic to condense the flour substances, then add spices, add a little minced meat, and then make a luncheon meat.
The young man squatted beside An Feng, and when An Feng was halfway through eating, he kindly handed over a bottle of mineral water, and kindly unscrewed the cap for An Feng, watching An Feng search for fallen food residues on the ground everywhere, and then greedily stuffed the residues into his mouth, the young man smiled and reminded: "I heard that once a hungry person is too hungry, he will not feel hungry, but as long as he eats a little food during this period, the hunger will be awakened immediately, and he will feel even more hungry...... Are you in this state now? β
An Feng's eyes showed frenzy aggressively, and he nodded patiently.
"Oh, you're a soldier, you should know that you shouldn't overeat after being overly hungry, so that's all you have for your first meal, are you satisfied?"
An Feng continued to nod.
The young man stood up and said meaningfully, "All right, it's time to think, do you have any questions?" β
An Feng lowered his eyes, and after two or three minutes of silence, he spoke softly: "Miss Upton......"
The young man smiled disdainfully and responded, "Remembered? Yes, Miss Upton is safe at the moment, her ransom is another matter, and now let's talk about yourself - if you are worthless, then you will disappear from this world. β
The young man pointed to the door and teased slowly, "Look, I have stepped out of this gate, and I will not come near this gate unless you are of great value." And you will slowly die of hunger, and the meal you ate just now will be your last lunch. β
"I'm ......", An Feng lowered his eyes, and suddenly remembered the standard response required by the Ministry of Defense of the United States, and then the soldier was captured. It seems that the Russian side did not develop a similar manual for soldiers, but ...... An Feng suddenly became playful and decided to follow the Hollywood model and make a similar answer.
"I'm Volgin Di Ivanov, Lieutenant Colonel of the Ukrainian Air Force, soldier number ......"
The young man suddenly laughed, as if entertained by An Feng's Hollywood-style answer, and after a few sneers, he began to recite Volkin's resume.
An Feng's answer was a test, and the other party said that if he was worthless, he would be locked in this basement and starve to death. It is a cruel punishment, especially for someone who has just gone through a fast and then eaten a meal, it is simply the most painful torture. But is the other party really going to do that?
If the other party intends to do this, then An Feng has nothing to lose - there are six waves of "bait" involved in this operation, and it is a big deal that An Feng takes out the food from the time gate, eats and drinks enough, and rushes out of the cave. At most, he thinks his actions have failed.
However, the other party obviously refused to take a break - in the days since An Feng was kidnapped, the kidnappers had already contacted the former Soviet Army Resort in Baku and accessed An Feng's file from the resort. This was not enough, the other party secretly contacted the Ukrainian military, spent money to buy off military personnel, and further investigated An Feng's details...... Of course, these details are what Ryan wants the kidnappers to know.
The young kidnappers poured out the details of Volkin's life, most of Volkin's resume was not kept secret, and the only thing that needed to be kept secret was his identity in the nuclear bomb unit. And the personnel of the nuclear bomb unit have a common characteristic - in the dark, their bodies will glow faintly.
Because of the prolonged exposure to radioactivity, the Soviet nuclear submarine forces also had the same characteristics.
As soon as the young man waved his hand, the young man guarding the door immediately turned off the lights in the room - the young man's movements were very skillful, and he had obviously practiced them countless times.
Sure enough, An Feng's body emitted a faint layer of fluorescence, although this fluorescence was not bright, but in the absolute darkness, even the blind could see it.
The lights in the stone room came back on, and the young man continued: "Let me think about it, how can there be computer experts in the air force?" Which army needs computer experts the most? Well, are you from the submarine forces? β¦β¦ Oh no, there are not a few active nuclear submarines left in the Russian Caspian Fleet, and you came from Ukraine, and you entered Azerbaijan on a holiday bus. The location where you first boarded the train was the Ukrainian Strategic Missile Command Center.
So, you are a nuclear bomb unit, you can only be a nuclear bomb unit.
Look at you, your complexion is very pale, although your skin is ruddy, but you can see that it is a ruddy glow from the ultraviolet lamp, you should live in an environment where you don't see the light of day, and I think the missile well is the most likely place for you to work. How long have you been serving there? Two years, or three years? You haven't seen the sun for thousands of days and nights in a row, do you want to continue this life? Don't you want to start a different lifeβa life with Miss Upton?
Let me think about it, how many times a year can you climb out of the ground? Maybe you can only climb out of the ground once in a few years? Your psoas muscles and abs are very toned, your body and appearance can be called perfect, and people like you will definitely shine when they enter the modeling world, but you spend days and nights on the gym equipment to polish your muscles. Why? Why are you willing to do this?
Well, don't resist, we know that you admire Miss Upton, and now that Miss Upton is in our hands, if you are willing to cooperate with us, then Miss Upton will have a good living environment, and you, you will see the sunshine and Miss Upton every day. β
This passage is still a test, and the other party is testing whether An Feng is sober at the last moment.
The other party told An Feng that they knew that An Feng was a computer expert, which was a subtle hint that Upton had confessed. If An Feng had been awake at the last moment, he would have been able to see that Miss Upton was also involved in the kidnapping.
Then, An Feng might refute these words, revealing disdain for Miss Upton's comfort...... At this time, as long as An Feng's expression was slightly abnormal, then he would not be able to get out alive, and whether he finally gave in or not, he would be imprisoned for the rest of his life to ensure that Miss Upton's secret was not exposed.
On the contrary, if An Feng pretends to be completely confused, then according to his previous performance of adultery, he will have to accept the other party's threats and temptations, and then confess the truth.
An Feng was very happy when it came to the end: "Okay, let me meet Miss Upton, I have to see her to decide." β
The young man nodded approvingly, "We can let you see Miss Upton, but you have to cooperate with us." You know, you can't put your eggs in one basket, and we're going to 'transport' you and Miss Upton separately, and if you want to see Miss Upton, you're going to have to be obedient for the next few days. Well, we'll move you to a safe place, and then, it's Miss Upton to meet you. β
After a pause, the young man added meaningfully: "Of course, before you can show us that you are worth enough, you must let us know that you are worth the risk." β
An Feng, who was sitting on the ground, hesitated for a moment and nodded resignedly: "Okay, let me rest for a while, I need to recover my strength." β
The young man approvingly replied: "You have four hours of rest, and after four hours we will transfer you, and if you dare to send any message in the meantime, you know." β
The door of the stone chamber was closed, and the lights were also turned off, but the darkness could not stop An Feng's gaze, and when everything around him fell into complete darkness, An Feng lay up straight on the stone slab again, his hands on his arms, and began to search the stone chamber with a transcendent sense...... Now An Feng is still naked, and the other party forgot to leave clothes for him. Just now, the young man took out mineral water and food from the coffin, but An Feng didn't want to touch the coffin.
So after he finished searching the stone room, he pretended to be afraid of the cold, got up with difficulty, shrank in the corner of the stone room, and kept shivering with his hands on his knees - but in fact, after An Feng found that this stone room did not have any monitoring equipment, he took out food and water from the "time gate" with confidence and boldness, and began to replenish his physical energy.
Of course, deep in the underground chamber, there are many restrictions on food and whatever, and he can only eat combat food and soldier rations. These foods are all flavors, and in order to prevent the food from smelling in the wild and being noticed, most combat rations are not flavored with any spices, the only flavor is salt.
In this closed stone room, the aroma of food could not be emanated, so An Feng could only choose the most bland and tasteless, specially processed battle rations to solve the hunger problem.
Now he doesn't have to pretend to be hungry or weak.
After eating and drinking, An Feng gradually returned to normal. His transcendent sense began to drift on, gradually drifting out of the underground stone chamber and onto the street outside the temple, where he was located on the third basement floor.
The second basement floor and the first basement floor of the temple are open to the public, and various religious activities are taking place inside, as well as religious activities in the temple hall on the ground...... When the vision shifted to the outside of the temple, An Feng found that it was daytime. Based on the angle of the sun, he quickly deduced that it was about nine o'clock in the morning, and that the noon service was about to begin.
In this way, he should not have been in the coffin for more than seventy-two hours, so the time he was in a coma should have been...... Twenty-three minutes.
That said: In twenty-three minutes, Upton stripped An Feng naked with her new boyfriend, then packed An Feng in a coffin and arranged a transportation route - how well-trained this must be.
During the twenty-three minutes of his coma, perhaps the vehicle that smuggled An Feng was entering through the Alang River by ferry, but perhaps it was entering Iran from the Caspian Sea, because there was enough time to take this route.
In short, during An Feng's coma, the kidnapping operation completed the transfer.
The sun was shining in the daytime, and the brilliance of the stars had been hidden, and An Feng could not continue to determine his position by constellations. He had never been to Iran, so he didn't know where he was. It seems that the city is very prosperous, and it should be a big city comparable to Tehran.
The city's streets are similar to Tehran's, a typical mountain town structure, with obvious slopes and undulating streets, most of which are paved with stone slabs and steps, and there are no asphalt roads to be found within sight of An Feng - this is supposed to be the old part of a city.
The tracker in the belly button has been in use for more than seventy hours, and the power inside has been exhausted, so An Feng took out an ear picker from the "time gate" and took out the old tracker from the belly button. Eventually, he installed a new tracker - the tracker emitted a signal that could penetrate the space three floors underground and be sensed by satellites in the sky.
About four hours later, the young man and the boy reappeared, they brought clothes, and new food, these people did not disturb An Feng's meal, and after An Feng finished eating the new food, the young man guarding the door brought a cloth bag and placed it in front of An Feng - the cloth bag contained all of An Feng's belongings, including clothes, wallets, and mobile phones.
Mobile phone signals can't penetrate the three basement floors...... Of course, the other party did not let An Feng touch the phone. After An Feng got dressed, the young man separated An Feng with a gun, and the young man poured An Feng's things on the ground and took a few steps back, and the young man spoke.
"Your belongings are here. We had a pact before, do you remember? You agree to show us your worth, um, maybe you need some belongings, tell us, here, those things are useful for your work. The exception is, of course, mobile phones. β
An Feng looked at it, his clothes had been cut into pieces, the belt had been removed, the soles of his shoes had been ripped off and cut into small pieces, and his carry-on bag had also become a pile of fragments, and several inconsequential documents inside were still intact.
An Feng's wallet is a lizard skin wallet, and now the lizard skin glued to the outside of the wallet has been torn off, and several credit cards can still remain intact, but there are traces of wear and tear on the surface, as for the documents in the wallet, the photo on it has been removed, and it is estimated that it has been scanned and copied by the other party.
An Feng showed a look of pity on his face, he pointed to the belt buckle, and said weakly, "Hand that to me, is it okay?" β
The young man's stomach straightened, and he let the muzzle of the gun stick out, preventing An Feng from approaching, and then warned: "You know the rules, everything can't be touched...... Tell us how. β
An Feng swallowed his spit, and made a weak statement: "Please turn the buckle pin of the belt buckle, rotate it, yes, rotate it to the right......"
The young man rotated the buckle of the belt buckle according to An Feng's instructions, and suddenly, the metal plate covered by the back of the belt buckle also rotated outward, revealing the two micro memory cards inlaid on the belt buckle.
The young man poured the two memory cards into the palm of his hand, showed them to An Feng, and after confirming that they were correct, he asked, "That's all?" β
An Feng nodded slightly.
The other party immediately asked again, "What is this?" β
An Feng endured and endured, and replied hesitantly: "Encrypt key."
The young man swept his gaze over the rest of the items and asked, "Is there anything else?" β
An Feng's gaze hovered reluctantly over several credit cards...... The money in his wallet, which had more than 10,000 euros and more than 20,000 new rubles, was now gone - all he had left was his credit card.
The young man stretched out his hand, swept the remaining pieces aside, then carefully put An Feng's credit card on the other side, wrapped the remaining items with a broken piece of cloth, and then nodded at An Feng: "These things, when you are released, we will return them to you." β
This is a scam, the other party has no intention of releasing An Feng at all, and is just drawing a cake for An Feng at present, hoping that An Feng can maintain emotional stability.
"You can eat, we're going to move you after you've eaten, well, you know the rules, we're going to put a hood on you, we're going to handcuff you, and hopefully you'll be quiet......"
The other party kindly reminded - this is actually a scam, intending to make An Feng feel that they can rely on and trust, and can "represent" their own scam.
The kidnapper has been professionally trained, and his every move is to hope that An Feng will have Stockholm syndrome, his attitude is very kind, his tone is very gentle, and there is no desire to force at all, and he is trying to communicate with An Feng throughout the process, as well as "reasoning". If An Feng believes the other party, he will take the initiative to cooperate with the other party and resist the rescuer at the same time.
An Feng unexpectedly showed a grateful look, as if he was grateful to the other party for giving him clothes and food, so that he was free from hunger and cold, and the other party's attitude was so kind, so it didn't hurt to cooperate.
"Okay, I hope you can keep Miss Upton safe, and I hope to see Upton soon...... By the way, how much is Miss Upton's ransom? β
Asking this sentence is not an attempt to deceive the other party's trust, An Feng fully understands at this moment that the other party still does not believe in him, and this sentence does not make the other party relax their vigilance. But...... This is the norm, a fan of adultery, after consciously getting out of danger, how can he not confirm the safety of the goddess?
"That's another matter, as I told you, your ransom has nothing to do with Miss Upton. If you are willing to cooperate with us, then we can hand Miss Upton to you. β
So straightforward? The other party had never discussed his ransom amount with An Feng from beginning to end, and if An Feng was still unaware of it, would it be too stupid.
Alas, it is a little more difficult for smart people to pretend to be stupid.
"So, your purpose in kidnapping me is not the ransom...... What do you want me to do? An Feng finally asked this sentence. Hungry and cold, and the other party's attitude is so kind, so it doesn't hurt to cooperate.
"Okay, I hope you can keep Miss Upton safe, and I hope to see Upton soon...... By the way, how much is Miss Upton's ransom? β
Asking this sentence is not an attempt to deceive the other party's trust, An Feng fully understands at this moment that the other party still does not believe in him, and this sentence does not make the other party relax their vigilance. But...... This is the norm, a fan of adultery, after consciously getting out of danger, how can he not confirm the safety of the goddess?
