"I... don't really understand what you mean." Shen Yexi looked up at Jiang Hu, and he felt a blank space appeared in his brain. A long time ago, he had been certain of his memory in the small black room. He remembered Fang Jinxing rushed towards him with that terrifying face, remembering the smell of decay and blood oozing from the ground, remembering the suffocating feeling of being blind and deaf, but suddenly, he was not very sure about those things. .
"I'm just inferring, it's not necessarily true." Jiang Hu walked out of the dark room carefully, holding the door frame, "Looking back from the results, you said that one of your undercover agents was here at the time and provoked a conflict between them." internal struggle."
"The gentleman told me later." Shen Yexi supported his forehead, reached out and pinched the frowning brows, and took a deep breath, "I was killed by the bullet in the opponent's pistol. The forehead, and the fact that he once hit the wall with his head, and there were scars in his nails, was told by the forensic doctor's sister Zhang. I was locked in there for four days, and it was Mo Bureau who told me... As for the other things I What I'm telling you is my own experience, or what I 'think' I have been through."
Jiang Hu nodded, and sat with his legs curled up on the threshold of the small black room: "If we assume that what others tell you from an objective point of view has actually happened, then we were ready at that time. Contact with this matter should probably be true."
"Without a plan and foreign aid, an undercover agent would not act on such a big matter, and there is no cooperation from inside and outside. I'm afraid that relying on undercover agents alone may not be able to do this." Shen Yexi nodded, and sat down like Jiang Hu , Leaning against the cold wall. He stretched out his palms, the melting sunlight fell on his palms, narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to separate himself from the messy memories, and revisited this matter with a calm, outsider's gaze just like Jiang Hu , "They sensed a change, that's why they want to lift the two of us out of the closed place?"
"At this time, they will either release you to negotiate with the police, or they will kill you and completely cut off their own way of retreat," Jiang Hu said.
Shen Yexi didn't answer, and turned his head to look at him with wide eyes: "Mum, you just said an idiom!"
Jiang Hu rolled his eyes, the serious and tense atmosphere was broken by Shen Huolu's words.
Shen Yexi laughed, then put his hand on Jiang Hu's shoulder, and patted vigorously: "Thank you." He opened his mouth to say something, but was suddenly caught by Jiang Hu's unusually clear eyes. A little embarrassed, his eyes turned around in other places, and finally returned to Jiang Hu's face, "When you are by my side, I seem to be particularly easy to calm down."
Jiang Hu was startled, at this moment Shen Yexi suddenly stretched out his hand, covering Jiang Hu's pale fingers that were resting on his knee, Jiang Hu's hand flinched obviously hesitantly. The atmosphere seemed a little indescribably ambiguous, the sun leaked from Shen Yexi's fingers, and the heat seemed to suddenly make Jiang Hu feel uncomfortable.
He suddenly found that he couldn't read Shen Yexi's body language anymore, that kind of thing with some kind of temptation and hint, could be released at the touch of a finger, repeated several times, but no one could find it. Once again, Shen Yexi gripped his fingers tightly, and then let him go as if nothing had happened: "What else did you think of?"
"... So I think those two people should deal with you." Jiang Hu said lightly. His eyelids were half closed, and his surprise, panic, bewilderment, and enlightenment all disappeared at this moment, as if he hadn't noticed anything.
"Indeed, otherwise there shouldn't be only two people, and the lineup should be bigger." Shen Yexi smiled, and a ray of loneliness seemed to flash across his face.
"They found Fang Jinxing first, but they didn't deal with him immediately, but brought him to you after discussion." Jiang Hu calmed down and coughed lightly, "I can think of two reasons that are most likely .First, the place where Fang Jinxing is located is inconvenient. It is likely that there were some differences among the drug dealers. Some wanted to compromise with the police, and some would never turn back. Not breaking down as much as they would like, and even irritating them to a certain extent by being sane, these nasty people want to have some fun for themselves at the last minute."
"No matter what, they didn't intend to let either of us live from the beginning." Shen Yexi sneered, "This is not a very difficult logic, but I didn't think of it at the time."
"It's normal. When you're sitting under the sun, it's easy for you to see through the other person's intentions and thoughts, but as I said, in that situation, you have already developed a certain degree of hallucinations, and your logic and cognitive abilities are impaired." Jiang Hu lightly scratched Shen Yexi's wrist with his nails, "Just like this, even if you close your eyes and don't see what I did, you won't feel anything happened, it's not painful, but in In that case, with your eyes blindfolded and the sound of water dripping, it's easy to believe your wrists were cut."
Shen Yexi knew about this famous case, he just lowered his head and stared blankly at the light white mark left on his wrist.
"Your mental state in an extreme environment is like a blank recorder. The consequence of not getting any information exchange for four days is that you will be extremely easily influenced by the other party's words and even body language, and you will even follow his lead. Go logically, automatically find reasons for his words, and you will clearly remember every word and every action of everyone at that time."
Shen Yexi immediately reacted: "Then I will do it..."
"I think his condition at that time should be about the same as yours. Judging from his scars, he may be worse," Jiang Hu said, his eyebrows frowned slightly, "But there is one place I feel It's very strange, you know, people who are affected by suggestions are somewhat similar to being hypnotized, just like the kind of ghosts we usually talk about... "
"Ghosts are fascinated." Shen Yexi corrected subconsciously.
"Well, almost." Jiang Hu didn't care, and continued, "So he believes in what he wants to do more than ordinary people, he doesn't even struggle, he doesn't find any reason, he just focuses on achieving a certain goal. target..."
Jiang Hu suddenly stopped talking, because Shen Yexi's expression became more and more ugly with his words.
Jiang Hu paused: "I'm just inferring, there is no basis."
Shen Yexi was speechless, and after a long while, he squeezed out softly from his throat: "I know..."
"I just… "
Jiang Hu opened his mouth, and the voice came out lightly, but it didn't come to him. He shook his head and didn't say any more, even if it was just an inference, even if there was only a one in ten thousand possibility, even...
Shen Yexi couldn't stand this "one in ten thousand".
At that time, Fang Jinxing was on the verge of collapse in the dark room. He even hit his head against the wall for the sake of a little sound, to cover up the overwhelming hallucinations and auditory hallucinations.
What could his hallucinations be? Maybe it's the sound of my friend screaming in another place, maybe it's the twisted and hideous face of the drug dealer, maybe it's all kinds of horrific instruments of torture in the dark... maybe it's just a trance, feeling that someone is constantly hitting his head There is something stuffed underneath, it looks like there is some kind of creature in the darkness...
Jiang Hu thought, if it weren't for extreme fear, such a humorous, calm and self-reliant person described by his teammates would never bump his head or scratch the iron-sealed wall with his nails.
Then that day, he was lifted from his dark room and brought all the way to Shen Yexi, when he suddenly saw the light that would blind him, heard the deafening voice of people talking, he heard They laughed sharply, and they told him that only one person can live, only one person can continue to see the sun of tomorrow.
People who have almost lost their cognitive ability, thinking ability and even numb senses immediately accepted this sentence.
Only one can survive.
Then he was shoved and thrown into another room, the sound of metal clashing in his ears, a small knife was thrown on the ground, and they looked down at him with a kind of banter, madness, greed, Perverted eyes. He raised his head, trying to identify the other person who fell in the corner with his blurred vision.
He walks like the wind, speaks one word, and seems to be the captain who can't even fall down when he is holding it against him. He was so thin, his eyes were shrunk into the corners without any purpose, and there was even a trace of hopeless stagnation in his gaze.
He thought, what should we do? How to do it…
When Captain Shen came to his ear and said that sentence, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the other party was still rational, but this rationality was too risky. At this time, Fang Jinxing lost his judgment. He only knew that Team Shen wanted to take risks again, just like when they were arrested, because there was something in this man who was fearless in his bones, but...
Only one can survive. Anyway, here's the result.
He didn't think deeply about why only one person can survive, he only knew that this is a fact, this is the truth. He... is still Shen Yexi.
However, Team Shen's decision has always been impossible to pull back, so he came up with a bad idea in a crisis, and he rushed at the opponent fiercely, stabbing him with a knife, full of murderous intent. Unexpectedly, Team Shen seemed to be stunned, allowing him to do it, and even looked at him with that kind of sad eyes, giving up resistance.
Having been comrades in arms for many years and knowing each other deeply, Fang Jinxing almost blurted out the words that could anger Shen Yexi to the maximum, and then he did it... But even so, Team Shen didn't even have the slightest intention of wanting him to die. Fang Jinxing almost burst into tears at that moment, because he was right about the person.
Then he saw behind Team Shen, the hail of bullets outside the door...
then... then... then...
As the sun slowly approached Zhongtian, Shen Yexi raised his head abruptly, stood up staggeringly, and slammed his fist hard against the wall, making a muffled sound. The skin exposed to the severe cold was immediately torn, and Jiang Hu turned his head to the side without saying a word, pretending that he didn't see anything.
Shen Yexi buried her face in her arms, her shoulders trembled silently.
At this moment, they were in different worlds. Jiang Hu wanted to reach out, but knew that the other party couldn't even read his own mouth shape.
if you believe...
There is a man who, in the midst of a desperate mental breakdown, still mobilizes that poor wit and hopes that his friend will survive.
There is a man who, after being betrayed and hurt by a friend, did not say a word afterwards. Even if he was considered to be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and questioned his ability as an excellent criminal policeman, he still tried his best to guard that life. Last honor.
There is a person who was unable to express his wishes and thoughts until his death, and did not even have the opportunity to leave a last word to be remembered, even at the risk of ruining his reputation.
There is a person, when he vaguely guessed the outline of the matter, even though he has huge contradictions and fears in his heart, he is still willing to set foot on this hellish land again, to pursue the truth with little hope, and he is willing to believe in such a sad truth. Nice, but just a guess.
Because when the truth cannot be traced back, we still choose to commemorate.
When you speculate on human nature with malice, the gates of hell will open and demons will run rampant. But if you are a little patient and tolerant, sometimes the world will not be so disappointing.
