Chapter 370 Rescue
Tang Shuo chuckled, listened carefully to the noise in the next room, then quickly turned the doorknob and pulled the short-haired man in.
This room was not as magnificent as Gus's room. It was completely dark. The doorway was covered with cobwebs, and it was obvious that no one had been in there for a long time.
Tang Shuo closed the door and turned on the only dim wall lamp in the room.
The room was empty except for a coffin in the middle. A few mice, not afraid of people, stood on top of the coffin, looking at the two uninvited guests who had suddenly barged in.
"Answer whatever I ask you." Tang Shuo pointed the dagger in his hand at the short-haired man and took off the gun from him.
The short-haired man said, "This is our territory. If something happens to me, can you and your brother get out alive?"
"Didn't you listen to me?" Tang Shuo thrust the tip of his dagger directly into the short-haired man's neck and said, "My dagger is now less than half a centimeter away from your artery. If my hand trembles even slightly, you'll die instantly. Now you should listen to me, right?"
Tang Shuo had a smile on his face while he said these words, as if he was talking casually about what to eat for dinner.
The short-haired man's pupils flickered, and he uttered a nasal "hmm" as a reply.
He didn't dare to speak at all, fearing that due to his negligence he would bump into the opponent's blade. Although Tang Shuo's action was a sneak attack, the short-haired man had no intention of despising him.
He was originally considered a master in the organization, although he had always looked down on Tang Shuo. The fact that he was directly controlled by Tang Shuo without realizing it was a testament to Tang Shuo's ability.
Tang Shuo's hand holding the knife was very steady at this moment, so steady that even he was surprised.
Generally speaking, no matter what movements ordinary people make, their bodies will always shake slightly and imperceptibly. After a long time, they must change their movements to relieve muscle fatigue, but the dagger Tang Shuo pointed at him never deviated at all.
If that were all, he wouldn't be surprised, because most trained special forces soldiers can do it.
However, the dagger in Tang Shuo's hand had maintained the same frequency and distance from his neck, including when the two of them had just moved into the house. Judging from the other party's appearance, this seemed to be a very casual thing.
The short-haired man knew very well that Tang Shuo's words were definitely not a threat to him.
"How many people are imprisoned in here now?" Tang Shuo asked, then gently pulled the dagger back.
Blood immediately flowed from the short-haired man's neck, and he didn't even dare to wipe it off. He replied aloud, "Are you talking about alive or dead?"
Tang Shuo raised his eyebrows and said, "Alive."
"There are still four living people." The short-haired man took the initiative to introduce: "A church priest, a Chinese reporter, and two Chinese soldiers."
As if remembering something, the short-haired man continued, "That Chinese reporter seems to have committed suicide again. His life or death is unknown now."
What Tang Shuo was concerned about was not the Chinese reporter, but the two Chinese soldiers mentioned by the other party.
According to 037's information, there should have been three people coming here, including Yu Haoran. Now that there are only two left, one of them must have died.
"Where are they being held?" Tang Shuo asked.
"It's in the rooms ahead." The short-haired man answered cooperatively.
"Take me to release them, and I can promise not to kill you." Tang Shuo said directly.
"I can't help you release him." The short-haired man didn't cooperate with Tang Shuo this time. He shook his head and said, "If I let him go, I'll die just the same, and my death will be even more miserable!"
Tang Shuo suddenly laughed, then reached out his hand like lightning and grabbed behind him.
Squeak…squeak…
Two mouse calls were heard, and Tang Shuo saw a baby mouse in his hand, whose fur had not even grown out yet.
The muscles on the short-haired man's face twitched. He felt that he seemed to have guessed wrong. Could it be that he would be in a better situation than Gus if he fell into the hands of Tang Shuo?
Tang Shuo then said, "What do you think would happen if you stuffed him into your mouth?"
The short-haired man was not at all happy to hear his suspicions confirmed. He gritted his teeth and shook his head violently, "You can't do this."
Tang Shuo suddenly attacked, and his fist holding the rat hit the short-haired man directly on the mouth.
The short-haired man groaned. Even though there were two broken teeth in his mouth, he still had no intention of opening his mouth.
Because of the mouse's soft skull and strong gnawing ability, a hole the size of a ballpoint pen is enough for them to get through, not to mention his throat.
Once the rats get into the hole, they will continue to gnaw on almost everything, including cement, lead, plastic, etc.
The short-haired man was certain that no one in this world would like this feeling.
Tang Shuo placed the mouse on the short-haired man's mouth and asked, "Are you going or not?"
Feeling the mouse's front paws constantly groping in his mouth, the short-haired man nodded suddenly and said in a muffled voice, "I'll go."
"Wouldn't it have been better if you had said that earlier?" Tang Shuo took the mouse from the short-haired man's mouth and threw it aside, saying, "As long as you cooperate with me, I won't kill you."
In fact, Tang Shuo originally just wanted to deal with the short-haired man and then get away, but he didn't expect the other party to be so cooperative.
As for threatening with rats, he saw that the short-haired man didn't want to die. All he lacked was determination. If he was truly prepared to face death, he would have called out to the prison guard from the very beginning.
So Tang Shuo was happy to give the other party some hope. Besides, his purpose was not to come here to kill people.
The short-haired man then spat out a mouthful of blood, took two breaths and said, "Are you really going to let me go?"
Tang Shuo nodded and said, "Only if you can help me release him."
"Who are you?" the short-haired man asked curiously, "A Chinese soldier?"
"No." Tang Shuo shook his head and said, "One of the people you kidnapped is my friend."
The short-haired man wiped the corner of his mouth and said as if he had made up his mind: "Knock me out later." He was holding a guitar horn.
Tang Shuo gave him an understanding look and then followed the short-haired man out.
Despite the assurances inside, Tang Shuo didn't let his guard down and kept a close eye on the short-haired man. If he showed any signs of abnormality, he would go up and kill him without hesitation!
The short-haired man took two steps and said to the two men standing in front of a room, "Is everyone inside okay?"
The light in the corridor was not bright, so no one noticed anything unusual about the short-haired man.
"It's okay." The two replied.
The short-haired man nodded and said, "A group of people are coming upstairs. You two should go up and provide support first."
The two looked at each other and said hesitantly, "Who's inside?"
"Leave this to me." The short-haired man said directly.
The two guards were relieved, nodded, and immediately walked upstairs.
The short-haired man winked at Tang Shuo behind him, then took Tang Shuo inside.
When he saw the situation in the room clearly, the veins on Tang Shuo's forehead bulged instantly.
I saw a thin man lying on a pile of grass in the room with his eyes closed. He was covered in blood, and what was even more shocking was that there was an arm thrown on the side of his body.
Tang Shuo immediately stepped forward, patted the man's cheek and said, "Monkey, monkey!"
The skinny man on the ground was Monkey. Seeing his former brother become such a miserable state, Tang Shuo almost wanted to eat Gus alive.
The monkey slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Tang Shuo, then closed them again, muttering, "I must be hallucinating!"
Tang Shuo grabbed the monkey's only intact hand and said, "I'll take you away now!"
After making sure he wasn't dreaming, Monkey said, "Captain!"
Tang Shuo took a deep breath and said, "Don't talk, I'll take you away now!"
Monkey's eyes instantly became moist, and he said aloud: "Captain, don't worry about me. Captain Yu has also been captured by them. Go and rescue him first."
"Don't talk!" Tang Shuo ordered.
Then he directly helped the monkey up from the ground, and said to the short-haired man beside him with red eyes: "Take me to the next place first!"
