"Ashan's daughter Axiang was abducted." A Ming said.
"The criminal is Zuo Shan."
"Where's the request?" Lin Xiao said.
"Exchanging hostages, we captured the woman from Zuoshan." A Ming said.
"Liangzi?" Lin Xiao said.
"Yes."
'Is she still alive?'
"Of course, they are important hostages and they will not be killed casually," A Ming said.
"Is that what happened?" In order to threaten Zuo Shan, Ah Shan captured Liang Zi, and Zuo Shan, who knew about this, captured A Xiang." Lin Xiao said.
"And then offered to exchange?"
"Yes."
"When will the exchange take place?" Lin Xiao said.
"The day after tomorrow, no, it's past 0 o'clock, it should be tomorrow." A Ming said.
"Where's my mission?"
"As an agent, the negotiation will be successful as long as Ah Xiang can come back safely," A Ming said.
‘I will give you 1000w.’
'I don't want money, but I accept negotiations.'
'Great, you finally agreed.'
‘I don’t have a choice, right?’ Lin Xiao said.
"Yes." Amin said.
"Please come here again tomorrow afternoon and I will introduce you to Ah Shan."
'Can I strike Ryoko with my sword?'
‘Okay, but if you invite someone over, there will be big trouble if you come over with a search warrant or something like that.’ A Ming said.
"do you understand?"
"This is completely intimidation." Lin Xiao said.
"No, Mr. Lin Xiao, this is a suggestion." A Ming said.
'Yes, I am Nomura.'
"I'm sorry, Nomura, it's an emergency."
‘What’s going on so late?’ Nomura said.
"It's better to sober up if something troubles you a little bit." Lin Xiao said.
"Yes, I'm awake."
"I will go to Atolia's house now for the sake of living later and protect him 24 hours a day. I will not leave Atolia like a stalker." Lin Xiao said.
"Do you understand?"
"knew!"
"I will contact you again, so what should I do? Things have become very troublesome." Lin Xiao said.
the next day.
"I know, it's really troublesome." Sato said.
"Both sides have taken hostages, so they don't trust each other," Lin Xiao said.
"When I think of the other party's betrayal, I can't do anything."
"Now we are in a dilemma."
'The dilemma is the whole situation.'
"How about it from your own point of view?" Sato said.
"The negotiating partner was Zuoshan who was looking for you, and then you were intimidated."
'I want to play the role of a master negotiator.'
"Yes, there is no choice, which is actually the best for you." Sato said.
"The hostages were exchanged, and Zuoshan and weapons were secured." Lin Xiao said.
"Worst outcome."
"After the failure, Atolia became a victim." Lin Xiao said.
"Which one should take priority, Atolia's life or Zuoshan's capture?" Sato said.
"Atolia."
'It doesn't matter if the hostage is sacrificed?'
"The safety of the hostages must also be guaranteed," Lin Xiao said.
"Okay." Sato said.
"That is to say, your goal is to make the hostage exchange successful."
"And protect your colleagues. What do you need to achieve your goals?"
"Information about the hostages." Lin Xiao said.
"The relationship between Zuo Shan and his common-law wife, and the relationship between Ah Shan and his daughter, don't think that the terms of exchange are half-and-half.
"The one who is persistent with the hostage will win."
"As expected of you, I really have nothing to teach you."
"I am being taught." Lin Xiao said.
"I'm just sorting out what you said, when will the hostage exchange be carried out?"
"It's tomorrow." Lin Xiao said.
"There's no time."
"By the way, Lin Xiao, leave it to me at the same time."
You mean Atolia?
If it were really here, I wouldn’t have found it.”
"Then please."
‘It’s okay, it’s all my fault.”
"Sometimes I wonder, have you anticipated everything?" Lin Xiao said.
Lin Xiao met Ah Shan.
"I can't help but thank you first," Ah Shan said.
"Thank you for accepting the negotiation."
"It's easy to catch up and talk."
"The reward will be given to you."
"I don't need payment." Lin Xiao said.
‘Amin, you didn’t do anything excessive, right?’ Ah Shan said.
"I just talked about what would happen if I refused," A Ming said.
"If I have caused you any displeasure, I am very sorry to you and I, please forgive me." Ah Shan said.
"We need your help."
‘There is no time, let’s get to the point.’
"Mr. A Ming, is the exchange tomorrow?" Lin Xiao said.
"That's what Zuoshan said."
"Who has spoken to Zuo Shan?" Lin Xiao said.
"it's me."
'Has the time and place been established?'
"No, we have to discuss it today." A Ming said.
"Is there any contact with Zuoshan?"
"I'm going to give him a cell phone from here."
"Fight now?" A Ming said.
"Wait a minute, the information is not enough. Mr. Ah Shan, please introduce your daughter's situation." Lin Xiao said.
‘Axiang, I am 18 years old and in high school.’ Ah Shan said.
"Her last name is her mother's, because I do this kind of Xing Dan, so I don't want my daughter to be excluded."
"Are there any other children?" Lin Xiao said.
"Axiang is an only child. My wife and I have no children left," Ah Shan said.
"There is no heir."
"So Ah Shan wanted Zuo Shan to inherit, because he was already mad to death just because of the betrayal," A Ming said.
"No matter what happens to Zuoshan, he only needs to consider how to rescue Axiang safely."
"I will ensure the safety of Miss Axiang first," Lin Xiao said.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin Xiao, you touched my heart."
"As long as we rescue Axiang, is it okay to let Zuoshan run away?" Lin Xiao said.
"Yeah, no problem."
"Ah Shan," A Ming said.
"Stop talking, it doesn't matter as long as Axiang can be rescued."
'I understand, there is one more thing. When was Miss Axiang arrested?'
‘It was late at night two days ago when the child’s mother called.’ Ah Shan said.
"She didn't go home without Axiang, so I asked her if she was here."
"When did Zuoshan call?"
'It was yesterday.'
"Let's sort out the relationship. If there are any mistakes, please point them out."
"We got 2,000 weapons to fight Kondo," Lin Xiao said.
"I didn't expect that the book would suddenly reconcile with you and the weapon would come to meet you by chance."
"Later, Zuo Shan, the leader, stole these weapons. How many people escaped with him at this time?" Lin Xiao said.
"Including Zuoshan, there are 9 people in total."
"I got it." Lin Xiao said, "Go ahead. If Zuo Shan is left alone and Kondo doesn't agree, if Zuo Shan takes action, the fire that was finally extinguished will burn again.
That’s why everyone is so desperate to find Zuo Shan.”
"There is nothing wrong so far?"
"correct."
'If you want to rescue the hostages, don't hide anything.'
"Go on, because I couldn't catch Zuo Shan, I caught Zuo Shan's wife."
'right?'
"Yes."
"Who gave the order?" Lin Xiao said.
"What's the meaning."
"Who wants to capture Ryoko and lure Zuoshan out?"
"There's no need to answer you."
"Please tell me."v
"It was Amin who suggested it."
"But whoever brought it up, Mr. Lin Xiao, it doesn't matter. The ultimate responsibility lies with me."
"Okay, when did you inform Zuo Shan about Liang Zi?" Lin Xiao said.
"It was three days ago."
"Who was the one who spoke directly to Zuo Shan?"
'it's me.'
"What did you say to Zuo Shan at that time?" Lin Xiao said.
"I said if you want to save Ryoko, come to the office." A Ming said.
"What was your reaction at that time?" Lin Xiao said.
‘He said he wanted to think about it and asked us to wait’
"Then Axiang was arrested the next day?" Lin Xiao said, "That's right?"
"Yes." Amin said.
"So, Mr. A Ming, can I go see Liangzi?" Lin Xiao said.
"Well, I can take you there in a moment." A Ming said.
"Mr. Lin Xiao, we have investigated many things about you. Please save Axiang."
‘I understand, I will try my best.’ Lin Xiao said.
"Ryoko is right here."
"I have taught everyone not to do anything excessive," A Ming said.
"But young people don't know what's appropriate."
"This won't work. If we prevent her like this, we won't be able to negotiate."
‘What should we do?’ Amin said.
"Take her back to that office and tidy things up before we talk about anything else."
"Okay, I will do as you say." A Ming said.
Next we returned to the office.
"It's useless to interrogate me." Ryoko said.
"Why?" Lin Xiao said.
"Zuoshan doesn't care about my affairs at all."
'Exchange is not possible?'
"That's right." Ryoko said.
"I don't believe it. In that case, why would we arrest Ashan's daughter?" Lin Xiao said.
"But that's it."
"Why?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. A Ming, please untie her."
"She can say whatever she wants without her mouth being blocked," A Ming said.
"It's hard to talk like this. Please leave the measuring people over there."
"I won't hinder you."
"Imagine what you did to her." Lin Xiao said.
“Of course I don’t want to say it.”
"Okay, now that you've mentioned it."
"Can you tell me what to do?" Lin Xiao said.
"Who are you?" Ryoko.
"I am the only negotiator. For the sake of the safety of the hostages, can you tell me the detailed information about Zuoshan?"
Lin Xiao said.
"Hey, what can I say?" Ryoko said.
"People who know Zuoshan call him a retro person."
''Yes, that person is like this. He hates being manipulated by others, because he has a strong self-esteem and will get angry if he is interrupted.
It’s best to talk to that person without interrupting him.’
"That's it, I understand."
"What else is going on?" Lin Xiao said.
"Zuo Shan was arrested twice before."
"Yes."
"Don't you think he is very violent?" Lin Xiao said.
'No, I don't think so. He is usually very honest.'
"But sometimes I lose my temper suddenly." Ryoko said.
"When was it?" Lin Xiao said.
"That man is very sensitive to concealment and lying. In order to prove that you are lying, he will not hesitate to use extreme measures." Ryoko said.
"So it's better not to lie, otherwise no one can stop him."
"Really? I will remember it. In this case, when talking to him, don't interrupt the topic and don't lie." Lin Xiao said.
"That Mr. Lin Xiao, will I be saved?" Liangzi said.
"I'll get you out."
‘Really?’ Ryoko said.
"No matter what, I feel like I might not be able to be saved."
"Why?"
"Even if I succeed, I will be killed."
‘Zuo Shan has already doubted my relationship with Zhou Ping.
That small restaurant was run by Zuo Shan. Later, Zuo Shan immediately found a reason not to come to the restaurant. At that time, it was Zhou Ping who treated me kindly.
But now he was killed by Zuo Shan, right?’
"Who did you listen to?"
"Everyone has heard that he was killed by Zuo Shan because he was no longer useful."
"Please wait a moment, what's going on?" Lin Xiao said.
"Zuoshan is close to Zhou Ping because he used to be a warehouse pipeman." Liangzi said.
"administrator?"
"It is a position that manages funds and weapons. This is a profession that only trusted people can hold."
"Is that Zhou Ping?"
"Yes, it is impossible to get weapons without Zhou Ping's help. He must have done it on purpose, pretending not to see the return invitation from Zhou Ping and me, and using that sense of guilt to trick Mr. Zhou Ping into the trap." Ryoko said.
"Zuoshan is a man who knows how to dominate others."
'That means Zhou Ping and Zuo Shan escaped together?'
"I think he had no choice but to run away because he betrayed."
"Zhou Ping must have regretted it until the moment before he died."
"I kinda got it"
"But I still don't understand why Zuo Shan is so persistent with you."
"The hiding place, I know where he hid the weapons." Ryoko said.
"I heard about it from Zhou Ping."
"Have you spoken to Ashan's people?"
"No." Ryoko: "Although they behaved very rudely, they were not tortured."
'Have you considered speaking out?'
"They went back to collect weapons."
"If we really want to fight, we can't beat Zuoshan."
"Those who left with Zuoshan are all elites."
'Zuo Shan called just now. It seems that he can't bear it anymore and can we negotiate?'
"I hired a master negotiator, you can leave it to him."
‘No need to introduce yourself, right?’ Lin Xiao said.
"Are you still joking? Negotiations will begin in an hour."
"In an hour?" Lin Xiao said.
"Yes, it was formulated by Zuo Shan."
'Lin Xiao, have you decided on a policy?'
"Decided."
'Can you lose it to me?'
"I can't do this."
"Why?"
"There is no way to guarantee that someone will not betray," Lin Xiao said.
"Do you think there are spies from Zuoshan here?"
"You can't say yes or no," Lin Xiao said.
"I said Owen will do his best, and if he is dissatisfied, let Amin negotiate."
'I understand. I'll leave it all to you. Is there anything else you need?'
"Please have a notebook and pen, the negotiations will take place here."
"Please leave Ryoko and I alone together."
"Lin Xiao, do everything as you say." Ah Shan: "But I hope you can convey to me what happened along the way."
‘Okay.’ Lin Xiao said.
‘Mr. Lin Xiao, I value my daughter very much and don’t want to leave painful memories, do you understand?’ Ah Shan said.
