As his vision became increasingly blurry, his consciousness also became increasingly unclear.
He didn't know why, but he gradually stopped feeling the urge to breathe.
He even felt lighter, as if he had escaped the effects of gravity and was slowly floating upwards.
It could be said that his only sensation was the pair of cold hands on the back of his neck, hands that were like the Grim Reaper, reaping his life.
However, just then, a cell phone rang behind them.
In an instant, those hands disappeared.
The long-awaited fresh air rushed into his chest in an instant.
"Cough cough cough..."
Lungs that haven't breathed for a long time will react slowly and cough incessantly.
His previously fleeting consciousness slowly sank into his body.
"Cough cough cough..." He coughed as he turned his head to look.
Gu Yao said gently, "No, I didn't go anywhere. I just bought some things at the supermarket downstairs. Don't worry, I'll be right back."
Xu San found it extremely ironic.
He almost died at the hands of this person before.
But now, he can smile brightly, his face full of tenderness.
madman!
That guy surnamed Gu is an absolute madman!
This way.
Gu Yao glanced sideways at Xu San and said softly, "Is there anything you want to eat? I'll bring it back for you."
"Okay, then you go to sleep first."
With a "Okay. I'll be careful," Gu Yao hung up the phone.
He casually tossed his phone onto his clothes and flicked the blood off his hands with a look of disgust.
Seeing that he couldn't shake it off after several attempts, he bent down and pulled out a few tissues from the coffee table to wipe it.
At this moment, Xu San was once again gripped by fear.
"No, please, I... I don't want to die, I really don't want to die... Please let me go! I'll do whatever you say! Didn't you want me to be a witness?"
I promise you, I really promise to testify against Wu Hao and Wang Lin! I... I will tell you everything I know!
As he spoke, Xu San ignored the excruciating pain in his ribs, crawled onto his knees on the bed, and kept kowtowing!
Thump!
"Please let me go."
Thump!
Please.
Thump! Thump! Thump...
With each thud, Xu San would cry out.
"I bet many people have cried and begged you to let them go, right? But have you let them go? Ha! You haven't, have you?" Gu Yao sneered.
One sentence left Xu San speechless.
Yes, Gu Yao is right.
In the past, almost everyone, especially those who were about to be executed, would kowtow to them, crying and begging for mercy.
But just as Gu Yao said, nothing happened.
Damn it, not a single one survived.
Those who shouldn't have died, few of them survived.
To put it simply, he used to be like a god who controlled the lives and deaths of others.
With a single snort, that person would lose an arm or a leg.
With just a single order, he could take the life of a living person at will.
He never imagined that one day he would experience such a terrifying moment.
"Heh, heh heh heh, hahahaha... If I had known this day would come, I shouldn't have gone back to Sha Tin Tsui! Hahahahahaha..."
Xu San, as if possessed, threw his head back and burst into laughter.
Tears, saliva, and blood seeping from under the gauze dripped onto the hospital gown, the blankets, and even the bed.
One by one, bright red plum blossoms bloomed.
Gu Yao threw the stained tissue into the trash can, glanced at the time on his watch, and then suddenly looked at Xu San, who was still laughing heartily.
Instead, he picked up his glasses and put them on, grabbed his coat and bloodstained belt, and walked towards where Xu San was.
Xu San, who had just been laughing wildly, immediately shut up.
Like a mouse seeing a cat, I was so terrified that I trembled all over.
However, Gu Yao only stopped briefly by Xu San's bedside.
"You're lucky today. But next time, things might not be so good." Gu Yao said, passing by Xu San's bedside and heading straight for the door.
The moment the door opened, he bumped right into the plainclothes officer who had been guarding the door.
"Did you get any information?" the plainclothes officer asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, the plainclothes officer looked at Xu San and his expression became strangely tense.
Gu Yao turned his head and glanced at Xu San, who was curled up on the hospital bed, and said, "He said he was willing to confess everything and also to identify Wang Lin."
However, I had to leave in a hurry today and didn't have time to ask for more details.
The plainclothes officer frowned: "He...is he really willing?"
You have to understand, relying solely on the diary written by a dead person, let alone someone with a complex background like Wang Lin, it would be very difficult even for an ordinary person.
Therefore, the higher-ups' idea was to use Xu San as a breakthrough point.
As long as Xu San is persuaded to testify against Wang Lin, even if the Heavenly King himself comes, Wang Lin will not be able to escape.
However, this kid's willpower and stance are exceptionally firm.
Their people have spent a lot of time and effort on this matter these days.
In the end, Xu San was still unable to speak.
But in just half an hour, Xu San agreed?
He was really curious about how Gu Yao had managed to do it.
"Could you please contact Director Wu and tell him that I've done what I promised?" With that, Gu Yao turned and walked out.
As he passed by the other person, he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "If he changes his mind, please contact me."
After saying that, Gu Yao left without looking back.
The plainclothes officer seemed to have been sucked out of his soul, staring blankly at his shoulder.
Because Gu Yao had just filmed there, was that... blood?
He sniffed, and a faint smell of rust entered his nasal cavity, instantly waking him up.
"Xu San?" He threw down the bottle of mineral water he hadn't even had time to screw the cap back on and rushed to the bedside.
He breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw that Xu San was not still.
But... only now that we're closer can we see that not only has the gauze on Xu San's head turned completely red.
Even the messy blankets were covered with specks of blood.
If Xu San hadn't made any moves, anyone who saw this scene would have thought it was a 100% murder scene.
"Xu San?" He reached out and gently patted Xu San's back.
My gaze inadvertently fell upon a patch of blood on the corner of the bedside table.
Further up, the pager that should have been hanging there had vanished without a trace.
What exactly happened here?
Just as his mind was filled with questions, he heard Xu San's weak voice: "I...I want to sue him! I want to sue him!"
"Sue him? Sue whom?"
"You surnamed Gu! Gu Yao! I'm going to sue Gu Yao!" Xu San's voice was now barely a whisper.
Immediately afterwards, with a thud, Xu San fell to the side and became unresponsive.
