Chapter 226 Reality (125)



Su Yang walked out of the interrogation room with a pale face. Compared with Bai Liu who was being interrogated, he seemed more like the person being interrogated. As soon as he walked out, his knees went weak and he almost fell to his knees.

The other team members quickly helped Su Yang up.

Su Yang and Bai Liu were in an interrogation room with one-way glass, so their conversation could be heard by people outside. Everyone understood what Bai Liu had said just now, but now seeing Su Yang come out like this, the other team members looked reluctant.

"Captain! Let's use other heretics to interrogate him! For example, the Fountain Eye. Captain Tang said that 0006's weakness is water!"

"No!" Su Yang, who was in a trance, suddenly came back to his senses. He held the team member's hand tightly to stop his behavior. "There is no direct evidence to prove that Bai Liu is really a heretic. We can't use this kind of thing on him."

"If he was just an ordinary criminal, it would be against the rules and unfair for us to use this thing on him..."

The team member's face was filled with rage. He roared sharply in Su Yang's ear: "A common criminal who put everyone in the city within the explosion range of the Dry Leaf Rose?!"

"Captain, I know what you want to insist on. You repeatedly interrogated Bai Liu in person and prevented us from using heresy torture on him. Aren't you trying to treat Bai Liu as a criminal human being instead of a heretic?"

"But does it deserve it?!"

Su Yang looked at the team member with a pale face and clear eyes: "He deserves it."

The team member was so suffocated by Su Yang's two unwavering words that his eyes turned red and his chest rose and fell violently twice before he continued to question: "Even if your lover, children, and parents may have been tortured to death by this beast in some pre-explosion experiment, you insist on not using heretics to torture him, right?"

"Yes, I insist." Su Yang said without hesitation, "If Bai Liu is a human, he should not be treated the same way as a monster."

The team member took a deep breath and said, "Captain Su, the second team will be here soon to take over Bai Liu. If you can't get something out of Bai Liu before then, the second team will not leave Bai Liu to us."

"They will go directly to Bai Liu Shangquan, just like Team Tang did."

"I know." Su Yang waved his hand, leaned on the table and drank a sip of water, then turned around and went back in, "I'll try again."

Su Yang walked into the room where Bai Liu was interrogated again.

He hadn't slept well for several days, and coupled with the damage done by the dried rose, Su Yang now looked very haggard. However, facing Bai Liu, the man who might have done something unforgivable to his wife and daughter, Su Yang still tried his best to remain calm.

Su Yang sat opposite Bai Liu. Not only did he drink water himself, he also poured a glass of water for Bai Liu.

"I really want to help you. If you are willing to tell me where the explosion is, I will do my best to help you get leniency."

Bai Liu's eyes fell on the glass of water like a dragonfly skimming the water.

This Captain Su, whom Tang Erda had been obsessed with, turned out not to be someone whose emotions were easily moved - no wonder he could be the tactician of Tang Erda's team, this man had such a stable character that he could not be easily shaken.

"It's not that I don't want to tell you." Bai Liu changed his tone immediately, and sighed with regret, "It's that I can't tell you."

As soon as Su Yang saw Bai Liu change his tone, he chased after him: "Why not? Is someone threatening or stopping you from saying this? Is there someone else who initiated the explosion? If you are afraid of retaliation after leaving here, we will make arrangements for you..."

Bai Liu interrupted Su Yang's assurance. He restrained his expression and looked at the man calmly: "Neither. I can say it, but you can't hear it, remember it, or see it. For you, it is something that cannot be touched."

"Your captain risked his life just to let you..." Bai Liu turned his head to look at the dark and oppressive glass.

He knew that outside, it was Tang Erda's team members who were staring at him with hatred, but Bai Liu didn't mind it. Instead, he continued calmly: "——and the people behind this glass will never see the truth."

Bai Liu turned around and looked at Su Yang: "I think it's stupid, but if this kind of stupidity is what he wants to pursue, and you can't bear the protection of this stupidity, I will probably be cruel and cut you off."

"But this time--" Bai Liu looked into Su Yang's light-colored eyes, examining him for a long time before turning away and continuing, "-- let Captain Tang say goodbye to you in his own stupid way."

Su Yang was startled: "...what do you mean?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his communicator rang:

"Team Su, Team Tang is here!!"

"Soviet troops, the second team is here too!!"

Su Yang's face was slightly gloomy. He stood up and wanted to go out. Bai Liu looked at him calmly and then answered his question:

"Captain Su, when you are with your wife and daughter, do you ever feel that your overly intense close protection will kill them one day?"

Su Yang was slightly stunned.

Bai Liu said softly, "Your captain thinks so too."

After he said this, he turned his head to look at the glass. His eyes were calm and without any disturbance, as if he could see the situation on the other side through this one-way glass.

But Su Yang knew that was impossible. Unless Bai Liu wore special contact lenses like him, he would not be able to see what was on the other side of the glass.

Su Yang walked out of the interrogation room somewhat distractedly when he heard the call from outside - he strangely felt a kind of tenderness from Bai Liu, whose expression was even colder, as if he was showing mercy.

Bai Liu seemed ready to do something even more cruel to himself, but for some reason, he finally stopped and returned the right of choice to Captain Tang.

Su Yang walked out of the interrogation room in confusion and stepped into the tense confrontation scene outside.

Compared to the Third Team that stayed at the headquarters for a long time, the Second Team that directly took in high-risk heretics outside had a much stronger murderous aura and was more decisive in identifying harmful heretics. In other words, they were cruel.

Because of the different division of responsibilities, the overall authority of the Second Team is one level higher than that of the Third Team. As the member of the Third Team just said, if the people from the Second Team wanted to take Bai Liu away, no one could stop them.

But there is an exception in the third team - that is the captain Tang Erda.

Tang Erda's authority was delegated to him by the former captain of the First Detachment. It was the highest authority in the entire Heretic Administration Headquarters, which meant it was higher than that of the Second Detachment.

With Tang Er around, it would not be easy for the Second Team to take Bai Liu away and deal with her alone.

But in this serious crisis situation, it was not an easy task for Tang Erda to rescue Bai Liu from the ruthless captain of the second team.

As soon as Su Yang came out, he saw Tang Erda confronting the captain of the second team who had rushed over with a stern look on his face.

The captain of the second team was a man who looked unfriendly. His left eye was covered with an eye patch. There were two old cross-shaped scars from his jaw to his collarbone. His uniform jacket was draped loosely over his shoulders. There were some unwashed bloodstains on the fluttering cuffs. The ID card casually hung on his jacket read:

[Captain of the Second Team: Cen Mingming]

Everyone present knew that Captain Cen's left eye was eaten on the spot when he arrested a heretic, and his deputy captain at the time was also eaten.

Up to now, the Second Team has no deputy captain. Cen Mingming did not set up a position nor promoted anyone to be his deputy, leaving the position of deputy captain vacant. He was the core leader of the entire team, and the whole team only listened to his command. The centripetal force of the entire team was surprisingly strong.

"Captain Tang, heretic 0006 should be handed over to the second team for handling." Cen Mingming got straight to the point. "The explosion is about to happen. The third team has taken over the heretic for thirteen minutes, but has found nothing about the explosion. Originally, they should have entered the next stage of interrogation immediately after arresting the heretic, but your deputy captain--"

Cen Mingming's intact eyeball was slightly bulging, a dull yellow color after sedimentation, like a wounded eagle. When it stared at people, it gave people a strong sense of being stared at: "--Su Yang, but did nothing and dragged it on until now. It is a serious dereliction of duty."

Tang Erda took a step forward and stood in front of Su Yang: "It was my instruction - Bai Liu is not sure that he is a heretic yet, so we cannot directly conduct this kind of torture."

Cen Mingming withdrew his gaze from Su Yang's expression, turned to Tang Erda, and smiled sarcastically: "Captain Tang, if I remember correctly, 25 hours ago, you have used more than three kinds of heretics to torture Heretic 0006."

"And this heretic released heretics throughout the headquarters during his escape, causing 67 team members to be injured, 17 of whom were seriously injured and are now lying in the emergency room with their lives unknown."

"At 4:17 the next day, the escaped heretic, in revenge, set off an explosion at the Rose Factory that was enough to contaminate the entire city."

"--Now you tell me, it's not heresy?" Cen Mingming pulled the coat on his shoulders and threw it aside. He took a brown file bag from the team member behind him, opened it in front of Tang Erda, took out the documents inside and threw them to him, "Take a look, Captain Tang."

Tang Erda took the file bag and his heart skipped a beat when he saw the number on it - the number was 0006.

——The file bags are ready. The headquarters has already treated Bai Liu as a heretic.

Tang Erda opened the file with a serious look:

[Name of the heretic containment item]: White Willow

【No】:CEDT-0006

[Report]: He was captured as expected by the captain of the third detachment, and during his escape, he showed close connections with other heretics...

...a humanoid creature with human-like thinking and movement abilities, the first living heretic captured by the Bureau of Heresy...

...According to the captain of the third detachment, this heretic not only has the ability to control other heretics, but is also extremely hostile to humans, enjoys torturing humans, is good at seducing, manipulating and exploiting humans, has a strong ability to pollute the mind, and can pollute living people into heretics for his own use...

...has caused a major mass injury...

...After testing, it was found that this heretic has a strong repulsion to water-based liquids (including but not limited to fresh water, sea water, etc.)...

[Containment method]: Containment is not recommended, and will be destroyed immediately upon capture.

Danger Level: Unknown (extremely high, cannot be assessed using existing ratings).

The author has something to say:

My gay friend: See 2, you wronged Bai Liu in the past, and now you have to pay for it yourself, why do you do this?
