Chapter 32: The Most Despicable Opponent
Outside the stone gate, everyone around the waterhole spent a minute and a second in worry, and after a full hour, Xu You finally broke the silence and said: "Okay, both of them are safe, and now they must be trying to find a way to open the door." β
Yan Gang looked at Xu You and asked, "Why do you say that?" β
Bai Zhongzheng just sneered disdainfully, and Yuan Zhenba explained on the side: "Xu You means that originally these two people had contradictions, and they happened to encounter this opportunity to be alone together, maybe the contradictions will escalate, and there are only two results of the escalation of contradictions, if it is not for the torture to kill Fan Meng, or if it is not killed, or injured or something, no matter what the result is, an hour is enough to solve it, as long as one of them is solved, the other person will quickly return to tell us that something happened, but after so much time, Neither of them showed up, which just proves that they are okay. Xu You, that's what you mean, right? β
The corners of Xu You's mouth rose: "Sure enough, it's the eighth master, smart." β
Tan Tong, who accompanied Samuchuan, said coldly: "This Wang Ba is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic. β
"Wang Ba?" Kent didn't know why on one side, but Samuchuan glared at him, because until now, he didn't believe Kent's words, he didn't believe that Kent saved Safon back then, and in order to save Safon's life, he fed Safon that strange medicine.
According to Kent, in his early years, when he escaped into the labyrinth and fell into the underground river, he was almost killed by a "hearing foot", but the corpse chaser who controlled the "listening foot" had long since left, leaving only a pile of information that Kent could not understand at all.
After Kent barely survived, he began to try to get out of the labyrinth, just doing this, he spent a long time, during which he was accompanied by the previous "listening foot", and he began to study hard with some materials he carried with him to learn Chinese, I don't know how long he studied since 1988, and finally he could barely understand some information, so he began to try to prepare drugs and try to issue instructions to that listening foot.
In this way, it was not until the time when Samuchuan and they came, but in that operation, because Kent was worried that those people were sent by Chen Taidong to kill him, he had to give the order to Tingzu to attack, during which Tingzu killed several people and seriously injured Safeng.
Later, Kent learned the truth from Safon's mouth, regretted it very much, and tried to save Safon, but Safon was no longer good, at that time Kent had already configured the "next world" kind of medicine, but I didn't know if it worked, after asking Safon to agree, and asked him to write down something similar to the consent form for surgery, he fed Safon to take it.
Then, Safon became Kent's auditor, and the previous auditory foot also "died of natural causes" because of too much time.
Of course, Kent understands the loopholes in this story too well, but because he was in a hurry to rescue He Chenxue and Yuan Zhenba in the labyrinth before, the torture technique did not ask and speculate again, which caused Samuchuan to be more suspicious of Kent, although he got the consent form written by Safon back then, and he also recognized that it was Safeng's handwriting, but he still doubted it.
Although Tan Tong suspected that Kent was concealing, he agreed with the consent form, because at that time, if Kent really just wanted to experiment with the drug, he could find countless reasons to feed the medicine into the mouth of the seriously injured Safon, without asking for his consent.
So, when Kent asked Safon to write that consent form, it showed that, no matter what, he remembered that he was a professional doctor.
According to Kent, he wanted to try to prolong Safon's life first, and after they were rescued, he would take Safon's paper to prove that he was not experimenting on him, and then use modern medicine to save Safon.
But Kent also knew that this hope was very slim, because the existence of the drug "Alternate World" made him feel incredible, and in the process of contriving, he thought that all the ingredients in it were poisons, and any one of them could kill people - because he tried to feed the animals with the drugs, but none of them were spared, and all of them died.
Although Yuan Zhenba also investigated the formula that Kent said, he found that although the so-called formulas were clearly written, the "poisonous golden mushroom powder" in it was not only one ingredient of poisonous golden mushrooms, as for the others, they were not clearly written in the formula at all, and the "poisonous golden mushroom powder" used by Kent was left over from the previous corpse chaser.
In addition, He Chenxue and He Yuejia were not worried about the same things, so everyone waiting by the waterhole outside the stone gate had their own worries except for the punishment technique and Fan Meng.
And in the stone gate, after looking for a long time, he still didn't find where the mechanism was, but from the premise that he had determined that whether it was the Heaven and Earth Mansion, or the peerless building, or the current Jiacuo Palace, they all had a direct connection with the cast iron immortal, he could also be sure that the organs here were all driven by the flow of water.
"Water, where is the water?" He listened to the ground and the cave wall, and in the process of searching, he found Fan Meng sitting on the side and looking at him like that, so he asked, "What are you sitting there for?" Why don't you come over and help! You don't care if He Yuejia lives or dies? β
Fan Meng shook his head: "My ability is not as good as yours, I am not the head, and my mind is not smart, so I can't help much." β
After Fan Meng finished speaking, he deliberately smiled at the torture technique.
At this moment, the torture technique suddenly realized something, he walked towards Fan Meng, pointed at him and said, "Fan Meng, are you too despicable and shameless?" You actually threatened me with He Yuejia's life? β
Fan Meng looked very disapproving: "You misunderstood, I didn't, I really didn't." β
Xingshu knew that at this time, Fan Meng was completely revenge for his previous disdain for him, and he also wanted to win the dominance of this team again, and Xingshu also speculated that maybe Fan Meng had roughly figured out how to open this door, but he just didn't say it, and deliberately made Xingshu anxious.
His purpose is exactly the same as what the torture technique speculated, he just wants to use He Yuejia's life to blackmail the torture technique, he knows very well that this kind of person in the torture technique will not see death and not save her, even if He Yuejia is a person they didn't know at all when they saved halfway, he also raced against time and tried everything to save her.
Therefore, he is not in a hurry, on the contrary, he can make the torture technique anxious, so that he can achieve the inner goal of kidnapping the torture technique.
The torturer grabbed the expressionless Fan Meng: "Fan Meng, are you still a fucking human!?" That's your fiancΓ©e! Not my fiancΓ©e! You actually came up with such a way to deal with me!? β
Fan Meng smiled: "I know, but I just figured it out, I said it, your justice and righteousness are your biggest weaknesses." β
After speaking, Fan Meng sat there and smiled, with a smug face on the scoundrel's face.
Torture held back his anger, constantly admonishing himself not to lose his mind, and to keep his eyes fixed on those long swords and axes, he was really afraid that he would kill Fan Meng.
Fan Meng pointed to the stone door: "Don't forget, I have that piece of paper, and the way to get in is written on that paper, do you know why you have to get a door here under the premise that there is a waterway underneath?" Because in the past, there were some strange creatures in the waterhole, and those creatures would eat anything that went into the water. β
The torture technique let go of Fan Meng: "You continue." β
Fan Meng raised a finger and shook it from side to side: "No, you have to promise me one thing." β
The torture technique raised his hand and grabbed Fan Meng again, but Fan Meng deliberately made a gesture of raising his hand to look at his watch, and said to himself: "Tut-tut, time is running out, He Yuejia's life is gradually passing!" β
"X your mother!" The torture technique threw Fan Meng away, "Okay, I promise you!" Hurry up, how to open the door! β
Fan Meng got up and pretended to be there to make a dust-slapping motion: "Don't get excited, you swear first, swear that from now on I have the final say, don't oppose me, listen to me, be obedient!" Be good! β
The torture technique clenched his fists, and stood there for a while before nodding vigorously: "Okay, I listen to you, I swear." β
Fan Meng yawned and said, "This is like words...... According to the diagram left by Xing Renju, it was not possible to enter through the water before, but there was a kind of person who could enter and exit from here, a kind of person who was gifted. β
The torture technique maintained the utmost patience: "You go on. β
"You should remember that Xing Renju and a man named Long Guozhou came here back then, right? But at that time, there were still man-eating monsters in this waterhole, but how did they avoid it? Well? "They did not go through the waterway, but entered through the main gate, because the way to open the gate was written on the stone gate outside, and only one kind of person with great talent could see it, and no one else could see it." β
The torture technique was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood: "Green pupils? You mean, Xing Renju is a green pupil? β
"Definitely!" Fan Meng shook his head, "Long Guozhou is a green pupil, I have discovered a lot of secrets from that map and the notes in it, and the Jade Casting Society also has a huge lie. β
"You mean, the Xuan family is indeed very smart, but before they fled to Miaodi, there were no green pupils in the family?" It was produced after combining with the local Miao people? β
Fan Meng nodded: "Sure enough, it's a torture technique, just give a little hint and understand, yes, that's the case, now you understand, why do I have to bring He Yuejia and He Chenxue here to live or die, right?" Xu You thought that I really didn't understand their value and role, but in fact, I understood, I just didn't want you to know about it in advance. β
The torture suddenly realized: "In order to be able to hold these two sisters in your hands, so before leaving, you promised He Chenxue some things that you couldn't do at all, and talked to her about the hypocritical feelings that you didn't exist in the past?" Just to let her stand on your side with all her heart and obey you? β
"Yes, that's the case, actually, you're really not as smart as they say, don't ......" Fan Meng shook his head when he said this, "You are actually very smart, but your feelings for He Chenxue have caused you to make a mistake in judgment, if you return to the state before you met He Chenxue, I believe that you have already discovered these things, of course, I personally advise you, don't always think about He Chenxue, she is not suitable for you, of course, she is not suitable for me, I really love He Yuejia, I don't like her little woman who is full of unrealistic fantasies, it's actually quite hypocritical. β
Xingshu shook his head slightly: "Fan Meng, apart from being despicable and shameless, you only have a little cleverness left, what else will you do besides playing with women's feelings?" β
Fan Meng smiled: "Whatever you say, anyway, you swore that you would listen to me, and besides, this is just entering the door, and there is still a long road ahead." β
The torture knew that he lost, he should listen to Xu You's words - because from the moment he decided to come in to save Fan Meng, he lost this game, the killing intent in Fan Meng's eyes before, the subsequent timidity, and the indifference to finding the mechanism, all of them were the steps of Fan Meng's plan, leading the torture to the final trap step by step, and everything foreshadowed in front was to once again verify whether the torture was the kind of "fool" with a strong sense of justice and righteousness.
But at the same time, Fan Meng also said the answer, the reason why he became weak was completely because of He Chenxue, because of his inseparable feelings for He Chenxue.
Criminal art also has to admit that Fan Meng is too handy at manipulating people's emotions, in contrast, he will only use flaws to lay out and resolve the situation at best, and he has not seen clearly the essence of the so-called bureau, which lies in people, and the essence of people lies in the soul, the soul cannot be captured by ordinary people, but it can capture the emotions that represent the soul.
"You're really a bastard." Torture nodded helplessly, "Me too, I'm more of a bastard than you." β
Feeling weak, Torture walked towards the waterhole by holding on to the cave wall, while Fan Meng followed behind, turning the dagger in his hand with a strange smile.
Before entering the water, Fan Meng said in the rear: "Torture, don't hate yourself too much." β
After saying that, Fan Meng took off his leather armor and jumped down first, swimming out by the rushing water in the waterway, and the torture technique hesitated for a while before following and leaving.
The two of them returned outside, and the moment they climbed up from the edge of the pool, although they didn't speak, everyone judged from the expressions on their faces that something must have happened, especially the torture technique, he didn't have any expression on his face, it could be described as a cloud, Yan Gang, Tan Tong, and Bai Zhongzheng had never seen the torture technique become like this, this was completely a manifestation of a major blow.
Fan Meng, who came out of the water first, was different, he changed his previous anxiety, his face was full of smiles, he walked up to He Yuejia and asked for warmth, and also smiled and nodded to He Chenxue for the first time, and said softly: "Thank you, Chenxue, I have wronged you." β
This sentence was like an electric shock, spreading all over He Chenxue's body, but at this moment, in addition to looking directly into Fan Meng's eyes, He Chenxue also deliberately glanced back at the torture technique, and she also knew what must have happened to the two of them inside.
Similarly, this feeling made He Chenxue feel scared, because she also understood the torture technique, and knew that the torture technique had become like this, and she must have experienced some kind of indescribable setback.
Even in Pan Feng's case, even if the criminal arts empathized with Pan Feng's experience, he suffered great damage in his heart, and he did not show what he is now.
"Are you alright?" Yan Gang stepped forward and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" β
Torture barely managed to squeeze out a smile and shook his head slightly.
Bai Zhongzheng and Tan Tong also stepped forward immediately, and even Samuchuan, who had been guarding Safeng, stepped forward, gathered around the torture technique, and asked in a low voice, but in exchange for the reluctant smile of the torture technique, he couldn't make him say why.
After inspecting He Yuejia's injuries here, Fan Meng pointed to the stone door under the waterfall in the waterhole and said: "Yuejia, when the sun sets, the water on the waterfall will stop, and the sunset will shine on the door. β
He Yuejia shook her head to show that she didn't understand, but turned her head to look at the direction of the door.
Fan Meng said again: "Yuejia, you look at me, only you have the ability to see the way to open the door, with your eyes, understand?" Use your precious eyes! β
He Yuejia understood, He Chenxue also understood, but He Chenxue suddenly thought a lot, she thought of Fan Meng's emotional hints to herself before she came, and also understood that if her sister's eyes were useful, then her own eyes would be useful sooner or later.
Am I being taken advantage of? Such a thought appeared in He Chenxue's mind, but this thought was fleeting, because she thought again: Didn't I originally come with the mentality of a moth to a fire?
He Chenxue secretly looked at the torture technique that was surrounded by other people not far away, but she could only see half of the torture technique's face from the gap in the crowd, and saw that half of the face was full of loss.
I'm sorry. He Chenxue said in her heart, and focused on her sister again.
β¦β¦
"I'm sorry!" This was the first sentence Chen Taidong said after meeting Xuan Tong.
The detention center was surprisingly quiet, and the prison guards who were originally patrolling around were all removed by Fu Mingwei, because he wanted to know too much what would happen next, and he wanted to know too much about the secrets that Chen Taidong and the others had been hiding, the Qimen they were looking for, and who the mysterious Xing Renju who didn't know his identity was.
At this time, Fu Mingwei, who was in the central control room, was like a fanatic who was convinced that he was about to witness flying saucers and aliens, and he was expecting Chen Taidong to tell more information in his way.
Chen Taidong's words stopped Xuan Tong, who was exercising in the room, and he raised his head slightly while doing push-ups, and after glancing at Chen Taidong, he lowered his head and continued to do it.
Hitomi just stood in the doorway, waiting quietly, and said nothing more.
In the central control room, Wu Zhinan, who was staring at the surveillance screen, sighed: "These two are muscle monsters, right?" At this age, it's a rare animal that is still muscular, no, a rare monster. β
Fu Mingwei said lightly: "That's why it's interesting." β
Wu Zhinan said again: "What do you think of what Chen Taidong and Sheng Feng said? β
"I haven't gotten any useful information yet, don't forget, Sheng Feng said at the beginning that he was going to cooperate with us to catch the weasel." Fu Mingwei looked at the surveillance screen closely, "And Shengfeng only begged Chen Taidong before, and didn't say anything substantial, to a certain extent, there is actually no progress in the case, by the way, is that Walter still staying?" β
Wu Zhinan nodded: "Yes, he hasn't left, he is not a suspect, we can't monitor him, even if we don't have Interpol's authorization, unless we catch him killing Makanov, we can't do anything with him." β
Fu Mingwei leaned back in the chair: "There is another way." β
Wu Zhinan asked, "What way?" β
Fu Mingwei looked at him: "Find Ma Fei, if Chen Taidong's previous speculation is correct, Ma Fei will definitely be trying every means to find out the murderer of Makanov, if she doesn't do this, she will become the most suspected person to kill Makanov." β
Wu Zhinan thought for a while: "I know how to do it." β
Wu Zhinan left the monitoring room after speaking.
