Zhang Jingxu and Yis People nodded in agreent with Ling Ishikawa’s viewpoint.
Liu Xing sighed and picked up his mobile phone, saying to Baruka, "So, Mr. Baruka, we’re counting on you. We hope you can resolve the Thick Fog issue as soon as possible."
Baruka chuckled confidently, saying, "You can rest assured, Mr. Liu Xing. As long as Deep One doesn’t mobilize a sufficiently powerful entity, they won’t stand a chance against . Just wait for my good news."
With that said, Baruka hung up the phone.
Liu Xing put down his mobile phone, sowhat surprised, "I didn’t expect this. You all are truly selfless individuals. I thought you might choose to have Baruka stay with us and cause trouble at EinsCastle."
Zhang Jingxu shrugged, saying, "I also wanted to do that, but I think we should prioritize the bigger picture for now. After all, if we don’t consider the overall situation, even if we win this module, the next one will likely take place in England, and we’ll face an even more powerful Cult of the Cadaver. So, sacrificing a bit of advantage now is better than facing certain death later."
Ling Ishikawa nodded deeply, "Exactly. We must unite with players from other modules in England to thwart the Cult of the Cadaver’s conspiracy. Otherwise, we’ll only sink deeper into the quagmire of England. After all, we’ve likely beco thorns in the side of the Cult of the Cadaver. They will definitely restrict our freedom of movent and continue to hunt us down."
"Agreed," Yis People concisely added.
Liu Xing rubbed his chin, smiling, "It’s great that you all think this way. But we’re still missing a significant ally now. We’ll have to be even more cautious on our journey to EinsCastle."
Just as Liu Xing finished speaking, Alice entered the room, "Ryuzaki and the others have succeeded, but they only caught Roro’s parents because Roro’s wife and child are still at school."
"Well, that’s fine. As long as we can get hold of Roro’s family, we don’t expect Roro to surrender because of them. What we want is to make Roro feel trapped," Liu Xing said.
Alice nodded, sowhat puzzled, "But according to Ryuzaki, their kidnapping operation went very smoothly. They didn’t encounter any interference from the Cult of the Cadaver, and they also checked Roro’s parents but didn’t find any listening devices or anything suspicious. This has made Ryuzaki and the others a bit uneasy."
Liu Xing raised an eyebrow. This was indeed unusual.
Of course, it could be because in the recent wave of judgnts by KP Li Shunchan, all the judgnts on Ryuzaki’s side were favorable, so everything went smoothly.
"Let’s have Ryuzaki and the others tour the city center first. When they’re sure they’re not being followed by the Cult of the Cadaver, they can return to the safe point. Oh, Miss Alice, we just got in touch with Baruka. He says he can handle the Thick Fog issue, but it’ll take about five days. So, if possible, could you inform your teacher of this?" Zhang Jingxu said seriously.
The reason for informing Alice’s teacher of Baruka’s ssage instead of Chris was because Alice’s teacher had more authority in this matter, and it would be easier to persuade the higher-ups in England.
Alice understood this and nodded, "No problem. I’ll go tell my teacher about this when I get the chance. I’m sure he’ll be happy to hear the news."
With that, Alice left the room.
Half an hour later, Ryuzaki and his group returned to the safe point with two middle-aged people whose eyes were covered.
"Are you sure you got the right people?" Liu Xing asked as they arrived.
Ryuzaki nodded, smiling, "As long as the intelligence isn’t wrong, they should be Roro’s parents. I even found Rayna’s number in Roro’s mother’s mobile phone. Now, I’ll interrogate Roro’s parents to see if we can get any useful information. Would you like to join?"
As Ryuzaki spoke, he led Roro’s parents to an empty room and removed their blindfolds.
The mont Roro’s father saw the light, he imdiately exclaid loudly, "Who are you people?! How dare you kidnap us! Don’t you know our son is a high-ranking official in the police bureau?! You’re courting death!"
Ryuzaki chuckled, crossing his arms, "Don’t tell you don’t know that your son, Roro, is associated with the Cult of the Cadaver?"
Roro’s parents’ expressions instantly changed, looking at Ryuzaki in astonishnt.
Ryuzaki smiled again, taking out Roro’s mother’s phone, "It seems you’re aware of who your son works for and what kind of organization the Cult of the Cadaver is. So, can you tell , who is this Rayna?"
Roro’s mother shook her head, saying, "Rayna is just a friend of mine. He’s not associated with the Cult of the Cadaver..."
Before Roro’s mother could finish her sentence, Ryuzaki interrupted, "Heh, I didn’t expect the mother of a high-ranking officer in the Manchester police bureau to be friends with the biggest mafia boss in Manchester. That’s quite surprising."
Roro’s mother frowned, sowhat resigned, "Since you know everything, why bother asking us? Just finish us off quickly."
Ryuzaki raised an eyebrow, pulling out a dagger from his waist, "Heh, it’s not that easy. You should know how much economic and reputational damage the Cult of the Cadaver has caused England with the recent cases of missing foreign tourists and the Thick Fog incidents at the seaside. Do you know?"
As Ryuzaki spoke, he approached Roro’s father and stabbed his thigh with the dagger.
Swift and ruthless.
After a mont of shock, Roro’s father let out a painful scream.
"Ryuzaki is really ruthless," Ling Ishikawa said quietly.
Liu Xing nodded, "This is the correct way to interrogate. After all, Roro’s parents are aiding and abetting evil. So, using so cruel thods to deal with them is not a problem. Even if we kill Roro’s parents now, we won’t be blad for it."
Liu Xing deliberately spoke a bit louder, wanting Roro’s parents to hear what he said.
Upon hearing Liu Xing’s words, Roro’s parents began to tremble even more.
Ryuzaki turned back, giving Liu Xing an appreciative look, then directly pulled out the dagger from Roro’s father’s thigh, saying to Buke, "Doctor, could you please bandage this gentleman’s wound? We don’t want him to pass out from excessive bleeding, or things might get complicated."
Buke, who had already prepared the First Aid kit, nodded and walked over to Roro’s father with a smile, starting to dress his wound.
Of course, Buke’s bandaging technique was very rough, so Roro’s father gritted his teeth in pain.
anwhile, Ryuzaki put the dagger against Roro’s mother’s face and said, "Alright, let’s continue. I’ll ask you again, who is this Rayna?"
Roro’s mother imdiately replied, "Rayna seems to be a senior mber of the Cult of the Cadaver. My son has been in contact with him, and as for other details about Rayna, I don’t know."
Ryuzaki nodded, smiling, "You’re being sensible. But let ask you again. What did you tell Rayna and what did he tell you during your recent contact?"
Upon hearing this question, Roro’s mother hesitated and struggled to speak.
However, when Ryuzaki’s dagger grazed Roro’s mother’s face again, she imdiately said, "Well, my son asked to inform Rayna that Chris had already t with a special envoy from London, so he asked what to do next. Also, he has successfully made contact with a deputy director of the Manchester police bureau and should have the opportunity to find out the location of the Safe Point shortly. In response, Rayna told my son not to worry about the special envoy and to focus on handling the deputy director to quickly ascertain the whereabouts of the Safe Point. He also advised my son to be careful and not to reveal his identity."
An expected response.
However, Ryuzaki wasn’t entirely satisfied with Roro’s mother’s answer. "Oh, is that all? I feel like you’re hiding sothing. Cult of the Cadaver could easily obtain such information, so your son didn’t need to specifically instruct you to pass it on. Also, Rayna wouldn’t likely say such trivial things. So, I’ll give you one more chance. If you don’t tell the truth this ti, I’ll make another hole in your face."
As Ryuzaki spoke, he lightly pressed the dagger into Roro’s mother’s face.
At this mont, the sound of dice falling to the ground rang out.
"I’ll talk, I’ll talk! Please don’t stab anymore!" Roro’s mother pleaded, "When my son asked to relay the ssage to Rayna, Chris had just t with a special envoy from London. So he asked what to do about it. Also, he had successfully made contact with a deputy director of the Manchester police bureau, and in a short ti, he might find out where the Safe Point is located. Then Rayna told my son not to worry about the envoy and to focus on the deputy director to quickly ascertain the whereabouts of the Safe Point. He also advised my son to be careful and not to reveal his identity."
Ryuzaki withdrew the dagger and said, "Looks like we need to arrange for relocation. Although our Safe Point is well hidden, it’s still sowhat vulnerable. But Chris should already be dealing with the deputy director bribed by Roro."
Alice nodded, smiling, "Chris just ssaged , saying he has controlled the deputy director bribed by Roro, and the deputy director hasn’t revealed anything about the Safe Point to Roro yet. As for Roro’s whereabouts now, Chris found out that Roro went to school to pick up his wife and son and then disappeared. However, there haven’t been any sightings of Roro and others at the city’s exit checkpoints."
Upon hearing this, Roro’s parents couldn’t help but curse their son for being ungrateful, only caring about taking away his wife and son while ignoring his captured parents.
Seeing this, Ryuzaki turned back and said, "It seems your son has abandoned you because he must know our identities and that his own identity has been exposed. So he chose to run away with his wife and son first. As for you, you’ll have to fend for yourselves. Maybe we’ll respect the elderly and spare you."
As Ryuzaki spoke, he pulled out a pistol from his waist.
Loaded.
This directly frightened Roro’s parents, with Roro’s mother even fainting on the spot.
Seeing this, Ryuzaki seized the opportunity, saying, "So, sir, do you think you still have any usefulness to us? If not, I’ll send you to et your maker."
Roro’s father nodded frantically, shouting, "I can be a witness! I’ll testify against my son, Roro, for betraying national secrets and colluding with terrorists..."
"No, we don’t need you as a witness. We never planned to let Roro live to face trial because his actions now are enough for us to kill him on the spot!" Ryuzaki pointed the gun at Roro’s father’s forehead, his tone indifferent.
Roro’s father’s forehead broke out in cold sweat, and finally, on the verge of collapse, he shouted, "Alright, I’ll talk, I’ll talk! I know where my son might be hiding now because he once told it’s where he ets with the Cult of the Cadaver, an important stronghold of the Cult of the Cadaver in Manchester’s city center!"
Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, not expecting Ryuzaki to extract such important information during the interrogation.
"Oh, then please tell the specific location of that place. If we confirm your information is true, we’ll let you live," Liu Xing said.
So, Liu Xing and the others learned an address from Roro’s father’s mouth.
After confirming that Roro’s parents were securely tied up, Liu Xing and the others left the room.
Back in the living room, Liu Xing spoke up, "Miguel, you must have observed Roro’s parents just now. Do you think they were lying?"
Miguel shook his head, saying seriously, "Based on my observation, except for Roro’s mother wanting to lie at the beginning, they were honest most of the ti. Especially Roro’s father’s final statent, I could sense his inner struggle and despair. So, I believe that address should be genuine."
