"Are we really going to let him go? Wouldn't it be better to kill him after filming?"
Duan Zai leaned on the railing of the yacht deck and asked in a low voice. After confirming that several prisoners were tied tightly, the group of them left the bottom cabin - the decision just now was made by Acheng temporarily, and the others were more or less
If you have any doubts, you need to avoid Qiuchangtian for discussion.
Relying on the imperial military power, Qiu Changtian has trampled on the head of Tears City for so long. If there is a chance, most of the people in Tears City would not mind seeing his floating corpse floating in the sea. Now that they have this opportunity, Acheng
I really wanted to let him go, but everyone didn't quite understand.
"Of course I have to let it go."
In the vast warehouse where the white lights were flashing and half of the warehouse was soaked in the dirty yellow sea water, everyone lowered their voices to avoid echoes. Acheng lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then said: "We killed
The only good thing for him is that he feels happy, but other than that, farts can't help him."
Everyone looked at him, waiting for him to continue. Xie Feng stood aside quietly, her hands constantly rubbing the corners of her clothes. She really wanted to leave now.
"Think about it, after the film is shot and the person is killed, regardless of whether his body is found or not, the empire can say that his life was threatened to make the film. Even if there is no body, a corpse can be created.
Say he is dead. You say the video is true. He said that a person can say anything at the critical moment of his life... Once you fall into this kind of squabbling, the power of the film will be greatly reduced."
The short boy nodded thoughtfully.
"If an official dies, the empire will naturally take revenge on us." Acheng glanced at Xie Feng and said, "It is just an ideal to say that the City of Tears is united. Submission will not unite us, and the empire will not be that stupid.
, use the stupidest means to retaliate... They have so many ways to retaliate, we just want to kill Qiu Changtian to take a breath, it's not worth it."
Xie Feng said nothing.
When things evolved to this point, she had a vague feeling.
A big event is happening right now, a big event that can change the future destiny of the City of Tears. Her phone call is an opportunity to promote it - however, this does not mean that she is participating in it. She is just witnessing the turning point of history. This event
The matter itself is not affected by her power. Her opinions actually have no influence on its direction.
...She was just a bystander who happened to be present.
This is a feeling that is hard to swallow. The City of Tears is her motherland, and she was the one who contributed to the birth. However, when it really started rolling, she found that she seemed to be separated by a layer - it was difficult
She couldn't explain what exactly caused this feeling.
"Then... do we really need to give him two days to run away?" Black Dog said reluctantly.
"No, that's not possible." Acheng replied, "As long as he disappears, the empire will say that he was killed. Of course, the empire will also be worried about him showing up again, and may privately pursue and assassinate him; but no matter what,
, his disappearance will affect the power and credibility of the film. For us, the best result is to put him back and return him to the hands of the Empire."
"Huh?" Duan Zai took a breath - obviously no one had thought of this sentence.
"Listen to me, when everyone has witnessed with their own eyes that he has indeed returned safely and is fine, then the video can be released to create the greatest effect. Revelations or rebellions from insiders are often more harmful than resistance from outsiders."
Acheng's face was obscured by the smoke, but the hateful smile could still be seen. "Of course, we also have to pay attention to making the film more natural. It is best to make it look as if he is just talking to him.
The conversation with others is the same. For example, a camera is set up in the front to make him think he is confessing to the camera in front, but in fact we filmed it from the side with a mobile phone. We can think of a way to do this."
...too cruel.
Xie Feng's palms were filled with cold sweat.
The video was released after Qiu Changtian was sent back intact, so the Empire can't blame the City of Tears for coming. The only person they have to deal with is Qiu Changtian, a "traitor" - regardless of whether this traitor actually took the initiative.
Whether he is passive or passive, he will be the first to be dealt with.
The most cruel method Xie Feng could think of was to kill people, but the empire definitely had methods that were thousands of times more torturous than this.
Of course she wasn't worried about Qiu Changtian.
When Qiu Changtian was sent back safely, no one could predict what kind of mad dog he would become when he realized that he had been set up.
Xie Feng can only be sure of one thing: Dongluo Rong, who relies on him, will never end well.
If an object can be used to vent desire, it can also be used to vent anger.
The faces of the other people were getting brighter and brighter. "Then can he cooperate well?" Duan Zai was still a little worried, "After all, this matter is not light..."
Several boys gathered together and discussed in low voices the details of how to force Qiu Changtian to submit. As long as he believed Acheng's lies, it was possible to force him to submit - and for a person in trouble, it was easy
Thinking that he was grabbing a life-saving straw, Xie Feng stood alone outside the circle, feeling a little stunned.
How to protect Dongluo Rong?
When they finished their discussion, everyone was silent for a while. After a few seconds, Black Dog suddenly sighed and said: "...Then will our world usher in the end?"
"The destruction of Neighbor Star was such a big thing, but the Empire was the first to think of using it to expand its territory. Judging from this, they may not be worried at all that our world will follow suit." Acheng smiled and said, "They are all
Don’t worry, we don’t need to worry too much.”
Not necessarily, Xie Feng thought in her heart. Wouldn't people in high positions be stupid and incompetent? Wouldn't they make mistakes in judgment? Let her see, the so-called high-ranking people in history have made too many mistakes, because they themselves
There is no need to bear the cost of mistakes; their ambitions and desires are also incomprehensible.
"If Neighbor Star was destroyed by some factor that we also share, then the empire should naturally become nervous. Now they dare to deceive the whole world on this issue and use 'evolvers' that no one has ever seen to scare the world.
This shows that there may not be soil on our planet that produces this factor."
As Acheng said this, he signaled to several people that it was time to return to the lower level of the cabin.
"What could that be?" Duan Zai asked.
"I don't know either. You can ask him again."
Listening to the conversation of several people, Xie Feng returned to the lower level of the cabin in silence. Acheng's analysis does have merit; after all, if the doomsday factor is something close at hand, such as nuclear hazard, then the Imperial people
I'm afraid I have to think carefully before taking action... The doomsday factor that destroys the Neighbor Star should be something that the Imperial people feel is far away, and it will not pose a threat to the Noon Star, right?
Perhaps she was so absorbed in her thoughts that at that moment, she didn't even know what was happening.
She only remembered that the four boys were walking in front of her, filed down the narrow ladder, and pushed the door to enter the bottom cabin. When she was about to follow her, she saw the headband who entered the door last suddenly tripped and lost her balance.
, the back of his head fell forward.
Fell?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, she heard a muffled "dong" sound coming from an invisible place in the bottom cabin; Xie Feng's foot that had just stepped on it immediately retracted like an electric shock - "Gun
On this kid!" shouted an unfamiliar male voice.
"Double boy!" Acheng's exclamation was accompanied by another crash, like the sound of a chair being overturned.
problem occurs!
Xie Feng forgot to even breathe for a moment, and returned to the upper deck of the yacht in two steps - from the bottom cabin, the sounds of men wrestling and fighting, a growl like a low growl in the throat, and a muffled banging sound, as if there were
The entity rushed left and right in the entire bottom cabin; the yacht was shaken by the impact, and she lost her footing and immediately fell to the board of the boat, almost rolling out from between the railings.
What's going on? Aren't everyone tied up? How could there be a fight?
There was a "bang" gunshot, and Xie Fei suddenly stopped in shock, as if her heart was frozen in her chest. She clutched the railing tightly, staring at the narrow ladder, and then four or five angry gunfire roared in succession.
Amidst the sound, my ears started buzzing rapidly, as if they were filled with strong echoes.
Yes...which party is it?
The echoes of gunshots in the warehouse were still echoing, and the bottom cabin had fallen into a dead silence. After Xie Feng felt as if a lifetime had passed, she vaguely heard human voices coming from below.
She quickly rubbed her ears vigorously and pressed her ear drums twice, and she could hear a little more clearly.
"Sir," the unfamiliar male voice said vaguely, "Are you okay?"
Xie Feng's heart suddenly sank into the abyss.
"Untie me," Qiu Changtian ordered in a low voice, "Hurry up!"
Amidst a burst of rustling sounds, Qiu Changtian said something again, but I couldn't hear it completely intermittently: "This time... you reacted very well... how could you be dealt with by these children..."
She heard the last sentence clearly - "There are only four people here, and there is a woman. She should be outside. You can go find me immediately after untying me."
No, no, she has to move quickly.
Although Xie Feng always talks about death, as if whether it is her own death or the death of others is not a big deal, when death-especially the person who was talking to her just now-may actually happen around her
When she was crying, her hands and feet were weak, and her eyes were blurred by tears at some point.
Nineteen years before this, she had not even attended a funeral.
She barely remembered what she was going to do. She got down on all fours, half rolled and half crawled towards the back of the yacht, trying not to make a sound. They tied Qiu Changtian very tightly. No matter what method they used to untie the rope, it would take at least
Just a few dozen seconds - when she resisted the urge to whimper and finally reached the rear deck, she heard the thump of footsteps coming up the narrow ladder.
"Huh?" The man was really surprised and made a vague sound from his throat.
This was the inside of the warehouse and not the sea, which he obviously did not expect. The man was so surprised that the time he looked around was a life-saving opportunity for Xie Feng.
Next is the key - she must not make any noise. No matter how panicked, she must take her time.
The footsteps walked heavily around the forward deck. Without looking, Xie Feng knew who those feet belonged to; she had personally experienced how heavy the safety soldier's boots were.
Seeing nothing ahead, the pair of boots immediately turned around and strode back.
...However, when the boots reached the rear deck, there was no one there either.
