Lin Xiao!
Seeing this man, both Ying and Jin's emotions stirred a little, but at this moment, they were too weak to shout or scream anymore, not to mention their mouths were gagged.
"Old Zhu is really something, if he's already interrogated them, why was he so gentle?" Lin Xiao took a closer look at the marks on the two killers, noting that no special methods seemed to have been used.
"It's probably inconvenient for him, against the rules," Ye Chen said in a low voice.
"I know... why aren't you two talking?" Lin Xiao looked at them, suddenly realizing something, and slapped his forehead, "I forgot."
Then, with a flick of his finger, a force removed the things stuffed in their mouths.
"Alright, now you can talk... I'm just here to chat with you, don't rush to commit suicide." Lin Xiao waved his hand again, and a gust of wind swept over the two killers, followed by several silver needles appearing on their bodies.
Ying and Jin felt they could speak, but when they opened their mouths, they clearly felt their weakness. They lacked the strength to even speak, let alone bite their tongues to commit suicide.
It was impossible.
"You... there's nothing... to talk about..." Ying stared at Lin Xiao, this damned man who she hadn't killed, and what's worse, she had been taken advantage of by him!
"I'm not as skilled as the other person..." Jin's lips uttered this idiom from Dragon Country.
"I can see you two are quite proficient in the language of Dragon Country," Lin Xiao said, pulling out his phone. "Then I'll get straight to the point. Do either of you recognize the person in this photo?"
He enlarged the photo on his phone screen to full size.
The moment Ying saw the photo, her pupils contracted. She shouted, "You... what did you do to him!"
The photo showed an old woman in a kimono, her hair styled up, with a very kind smile.
"Nothing," Lin Xiao put down his phone and looked at Ying. "I told you, don't get agitated. I'm just here to chat with you, nothing more."
"What do you want to talk about... we can't betray Disha, so kill us," Ying said with a look of struggle, but these were the words she uttered, the same words she had given Zhu Guangyu during his interrogation, no matter what.
"Don't rush... looking at the two of you, you probably haven't eaten for two days, right? You haven't drunk any water, and you couldn't sleep well either." Lin Xiao was aware of the interrogation methods used by the National Security Bureau and knew the general techniques.
Hunger, fatigue, and thirst were basic human survival instincts, and they were generally effective ways to coerce a target into compliance.
However, judging by Ying and Jin's appearance, they didn't seem like they would talk.
"I've done a little investigation. Eight years ago, you two were sexually assaulted by the same man, and on that day, you two teamed up to kill that man and dismember him..." Lin Xiao knew their backgrounds like the back of his hand. To be honest, when he saw their past records, he felt a hint of sympathy, but it passed in an instant.
The two of them weren't surprised that Lin Xiao knew their information; in fact, it would have been surprising if he didn't.
From that moment on, they had lost all hope in men. Especially in countries like Kimchi and Nippon, the relationship between men and women was not harmonious to begin with. Over the years, they had somehow embarked on the path of assassins, and their targets were very specific.
They only killed men.
"The reason you two obey Disha without question and would never betray them is because someone you care about is being controlled by Disha," Lin Xiao continued. He raised his phone again and looked at Ying, "This woman is one of them."
"So what?" Ying sneered. "Even if that weren't the case, we would have slowly killed all men..."
"Mm, I know," Lin Xiao nodded, guessing Ying's thoughts. "Now that I'm here, I just want to tell you one thing."
"If you don't say anything, the people from Disha won't act against the people you care about... Miss Jin, you should recognize this photo too."
He brought up another photo on his phone.
The silent Jin's pupils contracted. She glared fiercely at Lin Xiao, her reaction more intense than Ying's.
"I've investigated everyone clearly, and I know they are all living well within Disha now," Lin Xiao put down his phone. "So, I'd like to discuss a collaboration with you two."
"If you mean that if we reveal information about Disha, you'll help me rescue them... then you're too naive," Ying sneered, staring at Lin Xiao. This man was strong, and his intelligence network was vast, but... she knew better that Disha's intelligence network was no worse than this man's. If she said anything, perhaps before Lin Xiao could act, the people would already be killed by Disha.
"Don't worry, I won't make such an unrealistic transaction," Lin Xiao immediately shook his head. "I know Disha's intelligence network better than you do. As long as you two are alive, they will act against these two people you care about at any time."
"Therefore, I will very frankly let the two of you die."
Ye Chen looked at Brother Xiao with some surprise.
"This way, the people from Disha won't suspect that you two have betrayed the organization, and they will guarantee the safety of these two as agreed, right?" Lin Xiao stared into Ying's eyes, needing an answer from her.
"Yes." This time, it was Jin who spoke.
Jin said, gasping for breath, "Let us die."
"No, no, no, if that's the case, you still wouldn't necessarily tell me information related to Disha, right?" Lin Xiao shook his head. "So, I've thought about it. How about this?"
"I have a very good idea, which I came up with on the way here. It might be a way for you two to choose to tell me the relevant information," Lin Xiao's gaze never shifted, and he stared at Ying.
"If you two don't speak, I will use all means to ensure your survival, protect you well, and provide you with good food and drink, just like treating girlfriends. What do you say?"
Lin Xiao proposed a seemingly preposterous plan.
But the moment this plan was uttered, both Ying and Jin's expressions changed completely.
