Chapter Forty-Seven: Extremely Critical
[1:33 a.m., 27 minutes before the commission timeout]
KK walked out of the bathroom, approached Ruben who had fallen to the ground, and tentatively poked him in the head.
Reuben lay on the ground with his eyes closed, and his mouth was slurred and mumbled, all nonsense.
Su Mo's voice came from the communicator: "This hallucinogen, which is used by the intelligence services of large corporations, will make people faint while retaining a shallow consciousness and unwittingly answer the questions of the interrogator. Let's see if you can ask for the information about the real box. ”
Although Reuben is now confused, he is the boss of the Eagle Talon Society after all, and he is famous, and he is not at the same level as KK at all.
If Ruben wakes up suddenly, he will undoubtedly be torn to pieces, which makes KK inevitably a little nervous.
KK swallowed his throat and lowered his voice very low: "Reuben, Reuben..."
"Huh? Reuben muttered and rolled over, making KK's scalp tingle.
Luckily, he just rolled over and didn't show any signs of waking up.
KK stabilized his mind and continued to ask, "Reuben, do you have a box?" Silvery white? ”
Ruben snorted and muttered, "Box... Silver... White... Yes... Yes..."
Seeing that the effect was not bad, KK smiled with relief: "Big brother, it's really useful." ”
Sumer: "Ask what's in the box." ”
KK: "Rebeen, what's in that silver-white box?" ”
This time, Ruben didn't speak, just kept breathing heavily.
KK: "Big brother, what's going on?" ”
Su Mo: "This is usually because the other party is subconsciously defensive, which means that the question you asked makes him very jealous... Damn, what the hell is in the box? ”
KK: "Am I going to keep asking?" ”
Su Mo: "Forget it, asking too many precautionary questions can easily make hallucinogens ineffective, ask something else, try to ask the approximate location of the box." ”
KK thought for a moment and asked softly, "Reuben, that silver-white box you put in the bar should be safe, right?" ”
Reuben's breathing became lighter and he muttered an "um".
KK: "Do you still have a box like it?" ”
Reuben: "Hmm..."
KK: "Where's that same box?" ”
Reuben stopped talking again this time, his breathing became heavier again, and his eyelids were beating rapidly, as if he might wake up at any moment.
Obviously, the issue was too sensitive and touched on Reuben's subconscious defenses.
KK pursed his lips and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Su Mo: "Slow down, you can't ask that anymore." ”
KK wiped off the beads of sweat with his sleeve to prevent them from falling on the floor.
He then pressed the communicator and whispered, "Big brother, I just discovered a pattern. ”
"If I use open-ended questions, like what's in the box, where is the box... These questions can easily trigger the opponent's subconscious defenses. ”
"But if it's a closed-ended question, such as yes, yes... These kinds of questions are relatively easy to answer. ”
"I'll follow this pattern and try again, do you think it's okay?"
Regarding the phenomenon that KK said, the sharp-minded Su Mo had already noticed it just now.
Unexpectedly, KK also noticed it, which made Su Mo can't help but look at his insight differently.
Su Mo: "You try, I'm sure you can do it." ”
KK took a deep breath and asked softly, "Reuben, that box in the bar warehouse is a fake that we used to confuse others, right?" ”
Reuben: "Hmm..."
KK: "Really the box is in a safe place, right?" ”
Reuben: "Hmm..."
KK: "This safe place is your villa, right?" ”
Reuben didn't respond, his eyelids throbbing faster again, and the muscles in his face began to twitch.
Su Mo was silent for a moment and said, "Or..."
KK interrupted him: "No, big brother, you don't have time. ”
KK looked up at the wall clock in the bedroom: "It's already half past one in the morning, don't you have to get the box before two in the morning?" There's no other chance, I have to succeed this time, or I'll delay you..."
KK took a deep breath and leaned into Reuben's ear, his deep voice full of induction: "Beloved King of the Riverside, the future King of the Borderlands, the safe location where the real box is located, is it your villa, right?" ”
Reuben's eyelids throbbed more and more violently, causing the slit to almost open, and even the whites of his eyes could be seen turning up.
This state lasted for more than ten seconds, and finally gradually calmed down.
Reuben's voice murmured, "Hmm..."
KK clenched his fists so hard that he almost screamed in delight.
He muttered and stood up: "Enough is enough, enough to know in the villa... Big brother, give me some time, and I'll help you find the box. ”
As soon as he returned to the realm of stealing, KK immediately appeared extremely professional.
He put his finger on the wall and walked around the room, tapping continuously in a certain range while closing his eyes and listening carefully.
By the subtle differences in the sound of the tapping, he could tell if there was a compartment inside.
"Click..."
"Click..."
"Click..."
"Tuk-tuk..."
KK opened his eyes and touched it lightly at the percussion position: "Here." ”
He did a careful examination near the corner of the wall, but found no mechanism.
He looked around the rest of the bedroom and eventually found a hidden button under the bedside table.
"Click." At the push of a button, the secret door in the corner opened.
Behind the secret door was a small space with a tight safe, large enough to hold the box Su Mo wanted.
KK carefully inspected the safe and found that it employs double encryption of fingerprints and passwords.
KK spread the sheet on the floor, carefully rolled Reuben over and dragged him over, and then put his finger in place of the fingerprint lock.
"Drip." The fingerprint lock is released.
The cipher disk is turned.
KK put his ear to the safe, turning the cipher disk slightly, while listening to the sound coming back from inside.
The process required a high level of concentration and the pressure of not knowing when Reuben would wake up, which was a huge challenge for KK, who was sweating profusely.
After seven or eight minutes, there was a subtle and imperceptible sound in the box.
The cipher disk has been adjusted to the correct position.
KK opened the safe, and sure enough, there was the silver-white suitcase inside.
He picked up the suitcase to feel the weight, and after a while, he pressed the communicator in his ear and said excitedly: "That's right, 5.32 kilograms, just right!" ”
Before he could get a response from Su Mo, he suddenly felt like he was being enveloped in shadows, and then a violent impact came from his head.
"Boom!" He was punched hard in the head, and the whole person was knocked out and fell to the ground.
He struggled to the corner, looking behind him in horror.
Ruben didn't know when he stood up, his body staggering from the effects of hallucinogens, his eyes bloodshot, like an angry bull.
"Cheap bones, you dare to calculate me?!" Ruben let out a roar and rushed up to scuffle with KK.
