4458 The Other Side 427
“At night, Jim will call all the believers to gather in the plaza. Everyone will drink the poisonous strawberry juice and commit mass suicide. Moreover, they will burn a living person as a sacrifice before dawn.”
As she said this, Vermillion Bird suddenly shuddered. She spun around and looked at the three hostages in the back seat. They had been in such a hurry that they had not checked carefully. Vermillion Bird frowned and immediately drew the dagger strapped to her thigh, quickly cutting a hole in one of the sacks.
Natalia groaned, clearly shocked. Beside her, Alice also trembled slightly, but the third person was obviously very calm. Vermillion Bird cut open the sack placed over his head and saw an unfamiliar face.
Dark skin, deep contours. Typical East African…
“Where’s Hua Jin?” Vermillion Bird exclaimed.
Gong Jie immediately tensed up. “What’s going on?”
“Hua Jin’s not here!”
“What?”
“Damn! This is a human bomb!”
“Get out of the car!”
“Get out of the car!”
The other end was a huge chaos.
As Vermillion Bird cut open the sack, she also heard the ticking time bomb on his body. She immediately ordered the driver to stop the car and opened the door. She held Natalia in one hand and Alice in the other. Before the car even came to a dead stop, she jumped out recklessly.
Almost immediately after they had jumped out of the car, the bomb on the other hostage went off and everything blew up.
The powerful explosion shattered the radio system.
Sizzle…
Gong Jie heard a ear-piercing sound coming from his earpiece. He immediately took it off and turned to look at the fake Jim beside him.
He grabbed the man’s collar and asked fiercely, “Where is the other hostage? Tell me!”
“Heh, just kill me! Anyway, I won’t tell you even if I have to die!”
Gong Jie’s lips curled as a cruel smile formed on his face. “Is that so?”
Releasing the Defense Master attached to his waist with a twist, he squatted down and pressed the blade against the other man’s cheek.
“You won’t speak, is that right?”
The man glanced sideways at the blade that was pressed to his skin. The sharp edge of the blade sank quickly to cut a bloody mark on his skin as Gong Jie exerted pressure with his wrist. It wasn’t as though he was completely fearless. He was not afraid of death, but he instinctively feared something more painful than death!
“Are you going to tell me or not?” Gong Jie grabbed him by the throat. “Speak!”
However, the man stubbornly kept silent. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, as if he was quietly waiting for death to descend.
But how would Gong Jie allow him to have his way so easily?!
He was determined to get information out of him, but the man was exceptionally tight-lipped. He had to think of ways to make him talk.
With a quick backhand, Gong Jie pierced the skin on his face with the tip of his knife and gouged a bloody wound.
“Arggggh…”
He knew best how to create suffering without causing excessive blood loss or serious injuries. His subordinates had experienced the cruelest torture in the world, so he knew how to inflict pain without taking the person’s life.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me! However, I won’t kill you immediately.” Gong Jie’s breathing was heavy as he leaned into the man. The Defense Master in his hand forcefully cut off half of his flesh.
“Arghhhh…!”
The man trembled in pain as a warm fluid trickled down the corner of his mouth, giving him a taste of blood!
