Chapter 1438 Go Back?
Old Mo area, Height 048.
A gunshot suddenly rang out in a depression, startling a flock of birds in the nearby forest.
Yuan Biao lay on the ground, trembling uncontrollably, his hair and collar soaked with sweat that had erupted from his body in that instant.
"Hoo... hoo..."
His chest rose and fell, panting heavily. At this moment, his mind was completely blank, as if he had lost consciousness.
They say the gates of hell, the gates of hell... this was truly a walk through the gates of hell.
After a short while, Yuan Biao slowly reached out his palm, forcefully touched the blood on his ear, and raised his head with a pale face, looking at Su Tianyu in front of him.
With a click, Yao Dou Dou put the gun back into the holster and said to him, "... Alright, you can be considered to have saved face for those in this line of work."
After saying that, he took a step back and stood behind Su Tianyu, saying nothing more.
Yuan Biao looked at Su Tianyu and his group, his mood extremely complicated, and remained silent.
Whether before or after the gunshot, his appearance was extremely disheveled. But from beginning to end, he hadn't shouted or begged for mercy.
Su Tianyu glanced at him expressionlessly, turned and left, without mentioning executing him or his men.
Gu Bai Shun thought for a moment and followed behind him.
The two walked to a nearby grove. Su Tianyu reached out to Gu Bai Shun and said, "Give me a cigarette."
Gu Bai Shun took out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket and handed them to Su Tianyu.
The latter lit the cigarette, put it in his mouth, turned his back to the crowd, unzipped his pants, and stood under a tree to urinate.
As the water splashed, he turned to Gu Bai Shun and said, "Damn it... do you think our cards can hold him?"
Hearing this, Gu Bai Shun thought for a moment and said, "Director Su, I admit, there's a gambling element in this situation. I... I really don't dare to decide for you. You should make up your own mind."
Su Tianyu couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, "You're as slippery as if you've been greased with lubricant now!"
"Hehe." Gu Bai Shun smiled politely.
After finishing, he shook himself, pulled up his pants, leaned against a nearby tree, and smoked his cigarette.
After a while, Su Tianyu gritted his teeth and said, "He's just a professional killer, and his team has been broken up. Leaving him alive is nothing more than shooting him to vent temporarily, but he's not the only culprit! Using him as a bet, there's a chance to win bigger... This choice is easy to make."
After saying that, Su Tianyu threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out, and said to Gu Bai Shun, "Damn it, just follow the previous plan, you go talk to him!"
Hearing that Su Tianyu had made a decision, Gu Bai Shun said softly, "According to the information I've found, Ni Huan, Liu Baoshan, Zheng Long and the three of them have been with him for almost ten years, since he was in the army, and his performance and emotions just now didn't seem fake. It's worth taking a gamble!"
Su Tianyu looked at him and said speechlessly, "You're getting better and better at Monday-morning quarterbacking."
Gu Bai Shun grinned and said, "I call it prudence. In the political arena, you have to be prudent."
"Hehe!" Su Tianyu also smiled politely.
The two young and strong foxes made a decision in a few words. This was also Su Tianyu's purpose for coming here.
...
Half an hour later, Yuan Biao was being held alone in a military tent. Three soldiers stood next to him, watching his every move.
Yuan Biao sat in a chair, soaked in sweat, and kept silent with his head down.
At this moment, the curtain of the military tent was lifted, and Gu Bai Shun walked in.
Yuan Biao slowly raised his head and glanced at him.
Gu Bai Shun slowly moved a chair, crossed his legs, sat down, and looked him up and down, as if thinking about something.
After a while, Yuan Biao couldn't help but ask, "What exactly do you want?"
"I've decided to let you go back," Gu Bai Shun said, folding his hands. "At the same time, I'll give you thirty places. You can choose who you want to take with you."
Hearing this, Yuan Biao was immediately stunned and speechless for a moment.
At the same time, outside the military tent, Su Tianyu was wearing headphones, listening to the conversation between the two.
After a long time, Yuan Biao slowly came back to his senses and said to Gu Bai Shun, "I have a rule in this line of work, which is to only recognize money, not people. But I will never betray the person who gives me money! That's also the code of conduct! Even if you let me go back, it's impossible for me to work for you."
"Can't you die if you don't act tough?" Gu Bai Shun asked bluntly, "If you're not afraid of death, why were you trembling just now?"
"I'm not acting tough, just have some concerns."
Gu Bai Shun looked at Yuan Biao and said, folding his hands, "Alright, you don't have to rush to reject me. Although I'll let you pick thirty people to go back, Ni Huan, Liu Baoshan, Zheng Chaolong and the dozen or so of your core members are excluded. You can pick the rest. As for how you explain to Kang Ding Huang, that's your business. You can lie to him, or tell him the truth, saying that you were captured. That's your right. But if you choose to continue to be loyal to your boss, Ni Huan and the others will die miserably. Just like the Shang Yao father and son, and the Jiang Yuanzhen family, who were executed without hesitation."
Yuan Biao frowned, staring at Gu Bai Shun, his eyes flickering, his heart full of confusion.
Gu Bai Shun stood up calmly and said to him, "You still have a few days to consider. My people will try to contact you, that's it. Don't think about playing tricks, it will be very detrimental to the people and things you care about!"
After saying that, Gu Bai Shun turned and walked outside.
Yuan Biao suddenly raised his head and asked him, "I think my plan was very secretive, how did you find out about me?!"
Gu Bai Shun stopped, turned his head to look at him, with a mocking smile on his face: "You arrested Zhou Tonghui, and Wen Xiaorou, and tried to assassinate the leaders of Dragon City several times, do you think you are very good? Let me tell you, District One not only has the Qing Yi Bureau, but also the Central Bureau, and various military intelligence systems. Kang Ding Huang not only has competitive relationships with them... even within the Qing Yi Bureau, there are also competitors. Do you think only we want you to die? Is it really difficult to get your movements?"
Hearing this, Yuan Biao stared into the other person's eyes and said, "You are insulting my intelligence... Are you trying to sow discord?"
But Gu Bai Shun said lightly, "Don't always rush to answer me, it will make you look very flustered. Think for five minutes, and ask yourself, is what I said reasonable?"
After saying that, he directly lifted the curtain and walked out.
Yuan Biao lowered his head, staring blankly at the ground.
...
That night, on a District One overseas warship, two helicopters took off and returned Yuan Biao and the other thirty people to the base of the First Army Corps.
As soon as they got off the plane, Kang Ding Huang, Lu Zhen, and Kong Zheng Hui, who had been waiting here for a long time, hurriedly greeted them.
At this time, Yuan Biao and the others were covered in dirt and looked very embarrassed. Many people were injured, their clothes stained with blood and bandages. Two of them were even carried down on stretchers.
Seeing this, Kang Ding Huang's face darkened, and he hurriedly asked, "Why did the mission fail? What happened?"
Yuan Biao looked at them, swallowed quietly, and said nothing.
Lu Zhen urged from the side, "What's wrong? Speak up?"
Yuan Biao looked at the expressions of the three people, paused for a moment, and suddenly scolded with confidence: "Ask me what the hell is wrong? Don't you know there's a mole? We were almost all buried there!!"
