When Gu Liao recovered from the pleasure of killing, Zhong Xin's consciousness had already begun to blur. He couldn't react to Gu Li's words, but his mouth kept repeating one word, "No. 073, No. 073......"

"Zhong Xin, wake up, wake up!" Gu Yan shouted hysterically, his body trembling uncontrollably from fear. At this moment, he felt that he really owed Zhong Xin too much. Since the day he came to the underground prison, he has been constantly making trouble for Zhong Xin, and finally caused the other party to be shot for himself.

Knowing this, why did he stay in prison in the first place, why did he wait until his identity was revealed before desperately escaping. If Zhong Xin really sacrificed his life for him, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life. Thinking like this, he gritted his teeth and used all his strength to carry Zhong Xin up.

"I'll take you to Dr. Yao now, you must hold on!" Gu Liao glanced around and suddenly found that he didn't know the road at all. Area X is very large, and the corridors are intricately arranged like an underground labyrinth, making it difficult to discern the direction. Gu Liao looked at the fork in the road in front of him, and he didn't know which direction to go for a while.

There was no time for him to waste now. Zhong Xin was seriously injured and in urgent need of medical treatment, and he couldn't afford to waste his precious time looking for his way.

"Zhong Xin, please tell me, where should Dr. Yao's room go?" Gu Yan was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat, wishing that he could have a map of the underground prison in his hand.

Silence, no one answered him.

"Zhong Xin, can you hear me?"

There was another silence, and Gu Liao was almost about to collapse. At this time, he felt Zhong Xin move lightly on his back, and then he heard a very weak voice, "Ahead...... Turn left ......"

Gu Liao immediately did so and turned left at the fork in the road ahead. After walking more than 20 meters, another three-way intersection appeared in front of me. Zhong Xin didn't raise his head, nor did he open his eyes, but just said to Gu Liao from memory: "Go to the ...... on the far right"

After coming to the underground prison for more than a year, Zhong Xin has already memorized the layout of the "labyrinth". The last time he returned to R City, he drew a drawing of the layout of the entire underground prison with his memory and handed it to Qiao Sheng. Based on that drawing, the police can make a plan for the next arrest.

After six forks in the road, Gu Liao finally found room 073 where Yao Jiangyue was. He held Zhong Xin steady, freed one hand to ring the doorbell, waited for a few seconds, and when he saw that no one inside responded, he began to slam the door frantically.

At this time, he was only thinking about how to save Zhong Xin's life, and he didn't have time to care about whether his actions would lead people out of the other rooms. If someone dares to come out to stop him at this time, he will definitely clear the obstacles in front of him at all costs.

After about half a minute, Yao Jiangyue finally opened the door in a panic. She looked at the two of them covered in blood and embarrassed in surprise, and was about to ask, when Gu Liao broke into the room without permission and slammed the door shut.

"Hurry, Zhong Xin was shot and lost serious blood. You have to find a way to save him. Gu Lian put Zhong Xin flat on the ground and said to Yao Jiangyue in a commanding tone. The latter was obviously frightened by the scene in front of him, stunned at the door, and asked helplessly: "This, what the hell is going on?" ”

"I don't have time to explain to you, you can help him stop the bleeding."

"Okay, I see......" Yao Jiangyue responded, then walked to the utility shelf and took out the first aid kit from the top floor, which was rarely used on weekdays. Before she knew it, tears had blurred her eyes, and fear filled her heart. She couldn't understand or believe what she was going through.

Why did Zhong Xin appear with the killer captain Chi Liang? Why did Yu Chiliang save Zhong Xin? Who fired that shot? What the hell is going on out there?

When her thoughts wandered, Yao Jiangyue accidentally dropped the first aid kit on the ground.

With a loud bang, the medicines and bandages in the first-aid kit were scattered all over the room. Yao Jiangyue was so anxious that she couldn't help crying loudly.

"What the did you do?" Gu Yan was also anxious, scolded, and hurriedly squatted down to clean up his things. At this time, Zhong Xin suddenly grabbed his arm and said angrily, "You two...... Leave me alone...... Let's go......"

"What are you talking about?" Gu Yan became even more irritable, and roared dissatisfiedly, "You were injured to save me, how could I leave you alone?" ”

"But...... If we all die here...... The evidence can't be brought out......"

"I don't care!" Gu Liao stubbornly shook off Zhong Xin's hand, pulled a ball of gauze, and hurriedly blocked the wound that was still bleeding. He looked helplessly at Yao Jiangyue who was standing on the side, and shouted loudly: "Doctor Yao, don't just stand there crying, come and help!" The latter came back to his senses at once, wiped his tears with his sleeve, and took scissors and hemostatic bandages in front of Zhong Xin.

"You don't need to save me......" Zhong Xin glanced at Yao Jiangyue, barely squeezing out a smile. I don't want to...... Drag you down...... You two go quickly...... It's too late if you don't leave......"

"Don't be stupid! I won't leave yours behind. Even if I carry it, I will carry you out. ”

"Gu Li!" Zhong Xin snorted angrily, almost using the last strength of his life. "Have you forgotten who you are, have you forgotten your duty? What the hell are you doing in the Underground Prison? Didn't you say that you want to find out the truth and put an end to the crimes here? Didn't you say that criminals should also be treated justly, and that they should be punished by law? I want you to leave here with Satsuki right now! Get out of here with the evidence! ”

"But...... I ......"

"Don't bother, take advantage of the riot outside, you two hurry up and find a chance to get out." After Zhong Xin finished speaking, he turned his eyes to Yao Jiangyue, who was already crying, wiped her tears with his bloodstained hands, and comforted, "Xiaoyue, don't cry." Come with him, and he will protect you in my place. ”

"Zhong Xin, I don't understand what you're talking about?" Yao Jiangyue looked at Gu Yan with a confused expression. "How can I go with him? He's ...... Be...... Murderer, ......"

"You're mistaken......" Zhong Xin explained, "he's not Wei Chiliang. His name is Gu Li, and he is an investigator of the criminal police detachment of R City, you can completely trust him. ”

"What? How could he be...... The police ......" Yao Jiangyue covered her mouth in surprise, only to feel a whirlwind. First, Zhong Xin confessed his identity to her and asked her to help steal evidence of the organization's crime, and now a policeman suddenly appeared. Could it be that this man named Gu Liao is also an undercover agent sent by the police?

"Let's go!" Zhong Xin urged again.

"Dr. Yao, let's go! If it drags any longer, none of the three of us will be able to escape. Gu Yan gritted his teeth and made the most difficult and heart-wrenching decision in his life.

He got up and walked to the bathroom, turned on the faucet to the maximum, and rinsed the blood off his face and hands with cold water. He looked in the mirror and took off his blood-stained prison uniform, looked at the scars on his body, and suddenly felt so strange about himself in the mirror.

"How did I get to be the way I am? Who the hell am I? ”

Thinking back to the first day he came to the underground prison, he only felt like he had a long, sad nightmare. He wished he could wake up to the warmth and comfort of his bed at home, bathed in the midday sun. He was still on vacation, and all the sins and conspiracies had nothing to do with him.

He didn't receive a call for help from Shu Qing, Qin Yu didn't go missing, he didn't find that strange set of coordinates, he didn't find the entrance to the underground prison. He doesn't have to play the murderous demon and live in fear all day long. He did not escape from prison with Shen Hang, nor did he provoke Li Ze. Li Ze didn't retaliate against him like crazy, and Zhong Xin didn't take a bullet for him......

Outside the bathroom, however, Dr. Yao's sobs of grief reminded him again and again that everything was real and that he could not escape it. Even though he had already been tortured to the point of exhaustion, he couldn't give up here. He can't die here, and he can't waste the life that Zhong Xin gave him in vain.

He patted his cheek vigorously with both hands to regain his spirits. He turned off the faucet and looked at himself in the mirror again, as if he was saying his final goodbye to his past life.

Returning to the small room of more than ten square meters, Zhong Xin's breath had become weaker. Yao Jiangyue was still kneeling beside Zhong Xin, making a final effort.

"Dr. Yao, do you have any extra lab coats?" Gu Liao asked, "I'd better disguise myself as your colleague and take you away." ”

"There's it in the cupboard at the door, go get it yourself." Yao Jiangyue replied absentmindedly and continued to help Zhong Xin treat his wounds. Even though she knew that everything she was doing now was in vain, she was still reluctant to give up Zhong Xin like this.

Gu Liao changed his clothes and checked his weapon. There were only three rounds left in the gun he took from the prison warden, and there were still six rounds in the gun Li Ze used. Just in case, he handed Yao Jiangyue a handful for self-defense, and he left the one with more ammunition.

"Alright, it's time for us to go!" Gu Yan patted Yao Jiangyue's shoulder and said resolutely. He couldn't stay here any longer, and if he waited a second longer, his hard-earned resolve might be shaken.

"Promise me that you must let Satsuki leave the prison safely......"

Gu Liao nodded, and finally glanced at Zhong Xin, "It's the luckiest thing in my life to know you." Hopefully one day we'll see you again. After speaking, he took Yao Jiangyue's hand and left room 073 with tears in his eyes.
