Chapter 273
Geng Jianhui continued:
"First, there are many guards in this base, and we are outnumbered; second, they have sufficient weapons and equipment, while we are relatively scarce. This is not a safe place. I estimate that in at most ten minutes, guards will come here to search."
"So, we must make a decision as soon as possible. My decision is that you leave and I stay. I will do everything I can to help you attract firepower and mobilize the guards as far away from the exit gate as possible. What you have to do is to seize this opportunity, attack quickly, snatch the key to the gate, and then open the gate and escape. This is our only chance at present and our hope of survival."
Geng Jianhui's sudden seriousness and sudden decision, although caught Zhang Xing off guard, were also within Zhang Xing's expectations. Just now, Geng Jianhui told him about his past and talked about his wife, which might be a form of entrusting an orphan to him.
Perhaps at that moment, Geng Jianhui had already made this decision in his heart. He planned to sacrifice himself to create an opportunity for Zhang Xing to escape.
From a rational point of view, Geng Jianhui's decision is not unreasonable. The current situation is extremely serious. They are trapped in a siege, with many enemies and sophisticated weapons. In this case, adopting the combat ideas proposed by Geng Jianhui may really bring them a glimmer of hope. Otherwise, they will almost certainly die.
Although Zhang Xing is usually known for his rationality, at this moment, his heart is occupied by emotions, and rationality has long been thrown out of the sky. He shook his head vigorously, revealing incomparable solemnity and determination in his eyes.
"No, there must be another way. I will never allow you to sacrifice yourself."
Zhang Xing's voice trembled slightly. He could not accept Geng Jianhui's sacrifice for himself. Geng Jianhui's eyes were still as firm as iron. He shook his head again with a serious face and said:
"There is no other way. This is our only choice. Moreover, whether you can escape depends on your luck and ability. As for me, you don't have to worry too much. Even if they catch me, they won't easily kill me. After all, I have worked in the national security system for half my life. From the perspective of intelligence, I still have a certain value to them."
Geng Jianhui's words sounded more like comforting Zhang Xing, because Zhang Xing knew in his heart that a man as strong as Geng Jianhui would never betray the organization.
Therefore, once he was caught by the enemy, even if he would not die immediately, he would definitely suffer various tortures and eventually die painfully.
Don't think that there is no torture in modern national security and spy wars. Those so-called peace propaganda are just appearances created by the authorities to eliminate social influence.
In fact, both the spy side and the national security side have unimaginable torture methods for enemy personnel.
Zhang Xing had been in the interrogation office. Take the Bonan City National Security Branch as an example. Any spy with a little bit of rank, once sent to the interrogation office, it would be worse than death.
In ancient times, due to the backward medical technology, prisoners could easily be tortured to death during the torture process, so the time the prisoners endured torture was relatively short. However, it is different in modern times. Medical technology is highly developed, and the rescue team is on standby at any time. As long as the prisoner is still alive, they can be rescued at any time.
Moreover, modern torture is supported by science and technology. Whether in terms of the degree of torture or the degree of destruction to people, it is more profound and terrible than the torture in the past. Various tortures designed in modern times are even supported by algorithms. The purpose is to make prisoners experience the painful experience of being half dead every three days.
These are just physical tortures. With the development of the times and the advancement of various torture methods, psychological and spiritual tortures are even more unbearable. The spies also have a complete torture system for national security personnel, traitors or enemy forces. No matter who falls into the hands of the other party, it is almost impossible to escape the fate of death.
"Team leader, give me some time to think about it. There must be other ways."
Zhang Xing's heart fell into extreme struggle. After experiencing multiple heavy blows such as teammates being injured and betrayals in the bureau, he really couldn't bear the pain of losing his team leader. At this time, Zhang Xing was like a madman, pacing back and forth in the room, racking his brains to think of other feasible solutions.
Suddenly, his eyes inadvertently fell on Sakurai, who was tied up in the corner.
The next second, Zhang Xing seemed to see a glimmer of hopeAt the dawn of the night, he suddenly walked towards Sakurai.
Zhang Xing's eyes revealed a ruthless look, looking straight at Sakurai. As an agent, Sakurai, even though she was in trouble at the moment, did not show any fear on her face. She did not flinch and met Zhang Xing's ruthless eyes with a little anger.
"I'll ask you a few questions now, you just need to nod or shake your head." Zhang Xing said coldly.
Sakurai responded to Zhang Xing with a hateful look, shaking her head without hesitation.
Zhang Xing snorted coldly: "I haven't asked yet, you shook your head, it seems that you are unwilling to cooperate?"
Sakurai's eyes revealed a trace of contempt, as if to say that she just didn't want to cooperate, and she could be killed or cut at will.
Zhang Xing snorted again: "I know that you female agents from the island country have all gone through extremely inhumane training. Whether it is physical or mental torture, it is difficult to make you speak in a short time. However, everyone has their own weaknesses, Sakurai, you are no exception."
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to answer me, but once we are caught, the photo hidden in your medicine warehouse locker and the secret of the diary will be known by Nishikawa Jiro. You probably don't want your secret to be discovered by Nishikawa Jiro, right?"
The reason why Zhang Xing borrowed the photos and diary in the locker to make a story is that on the one hand, he really wanted to use it to threaten Sakurai, and on the other hand, he also wanted to test whether the facts were as he guessed. He wanted to confirm whether the diary and the photo of the man's back were really important to Sakurai.
After hearing Zhang Xing's words, Sakurai's expression changed drastically in an instant, and his eyes were full of anger. However, what surprised Zhang Xing was that apart from anger, Sakurai's expression did not show much surprise.
Logically speaking, when Zhang Xing told her these words just now, it was equivalent to revealing that he and Geng Jianhui had been hiding in the locker of the medicine warehouse.
If she had not discovered this at the time, she should have been extremely surprised at this moment, but she did not show much surprise, which made Zhang Xing's mind a little confused instantly.
He couldn't help but wonder, did Sakurai really find him and Geng Jianhui hiding in the locker at that time?
Just when Zhang Xing was full of confusion, he saw that the originally angry Sakurai actually nodded and agreed to Zhang Xing's request. This undoubtedly showed that the photo of the man's back and the diary that Zhang Xing and Geng Jianhui had found in the locker before were indeed very important to Sakurai. More importantly, she really didn't want Nishikawa Jiro to see the photo and diary.
Although he was full of doubts, Zhang Xing had no time to continue to dwell on this question. Zhang Xing looked at Sakurai with a serious look:
"The first question is, in this underground base, in addition to the escape passage and the exit to the ground in the southeast, are there any other exits?"
Sakurai shook his head quickly without hesitation and gave a negative answer.
Zhang Xing frowned and asked, "Once the door of the ground exit is locked, can it only be opened with a key?"
Sakurai nodded.
Zhang Xing asked again, "Besides Mikami, who else has the key to the door?"
Sakurai shook his head.
Zhang Xing pressed, "You mean, the only person in charge of the key to the door is Mikami?"
Sakurai nodded.
From Sakurai's unhesitating answer speed, Zhang Xing could basically confirm that Sakurai was not lying. However, such a true answer made Zhang Xing feel very sad. Although he had expected such a result, Zhang Xing still did not give up.
He asked again and again with a serious look: "There must be a weapons and ammunition depot in the underground base. Do you know the location of the weapons and ammunition depot?"
Sakurai's eyes showed a trace of loneliness, and he shook his head again.
Zhang Xing rushed forward, the short knife across Sakurai's neck again, and his eyes bloomed with a ruthless and fierce look, and he said viciously:
"I ask you again, do you not know the location of the weapons and ammunition depot, or are you unwilling to tell me? I tell you, if I really have no choice, I will kill you before I am caught."
The reason why Zhang Xing asked about the location of the weapons and ammunition depot was that if he could not get the key, the only way to open the door was to blast it, and blasting must have heavy firepower.
Feeling Zhang Xing's strong murderous intent, Sakurai finally showed some panic in his eyes. And the short knife that Zhang Xing had across Sakurai's neck was also approaching Sakurai's neck inch by inch.
Although Sakurai's neckThe blood on her face was already showing, but she still shook her head and asked three questions in a row, but the answers she got were all negative, which almost made Zhang Xing's last glimmer of hope go to waste. At this moment, Zhang Xing's emotions were a little out of control, and the short knife in his hand was gradually exerting force out of control. Sakurai's face was already showing pain.
