At this time, Tom and the others woke up. A deep chill came from their lower bodies. Looking at the dark mud around them, they were extremely shocked.
They knew this place better than anyone else, because this was the best place to dispose of the corpses.
“F*ck! It’s at f*cking northwest.” Tom gritted his teeth and saw Charles and Jeff not far away.
“Old Chief, how are you?”
Charles was in his sixties and was now trapped in the mud. Half of his body was already unconscious. However, he recalled the scene before. When he entered the basement, he saw a death notice. Then, the Death Inquisitor appeared. A needle shot into his face, and he lost consciousness.
“Damn Death Inquisitor, what did you do to my daughter?”
Charles looked around and his face was full of sadness.
“Death Inquisitor, I’m innocent. I’m just their lackey. Please let me go,” Jeff cried.
There was no sound at the scene. It was quiet.
At this moment, lights came from four directions.
Seeing this scene, the three of them were overjoyed. They were saved.
“Help! Someone come quickly!”
“I’m here! Come and save us!”
“I’m the director of the County Public Security Bureau. Come and save me!”
As the three of them shouted, the lights in the distance got closer and closer. They stopped fifty meters away from them. Under the illumination of the car lights, the scene became extremely bright, as if it was daytime.
Then, they looked under the car lights and saw a crowd of people.
Just as the three of them were stunned, they heard a cold shout from afar.
“Save you? F*ck your mother.”
“You want Us to save you? You’re dreaming.”
“Hehe. I’m sorry. You’ve misunderstood. We’re not here to save you. We’re here to see how you die.”
Ah!
Hearing the words of the people around them, the three of them were dumbfounded. Tom’s heart sank. He was afraid that his matter had been exposed.
However, he was worthy of being the director of the bureau. He was quick-witted and instantly understood the weakness of the Death Inquisitor. He would not broadcast live without evidence, so he began his showy operation.
“Don’t be fooled by the Death Inquisitor. We have been working diligently all these years and have made many contributions to Kessel County. He is just a butcher. In order to stop us from capturing him, all of this is his conspiracy.”
Charles’s brain was also working very quickly. He shouted, “Death Inquisitor, we will capture you for your crimes. This is our duty. You can’t escape. Even if you kill us now, one day, our comrades will catch you. Our blood will not be wasted.”
The two people spoke carelessly, and every word was sonorous.
Jack really admired the two of them. This official tone was really perfect. It was really impossible to say without decades of skill. Looking at Jeff’s timid look, it was a stark contrast to the situation of the two of them.
Clap Clap Clap!
Suddenly, there was a round of applause. Not far from them, there was an iron box, and the sound came from it.
“What an exciting thing to say. Aren’t you afraid that the people you killed will drag you down?”
After hearing this, Tom and the others instantly turned pale. A chill instantly surged from their bodies. Although they did not believe that ghosts and gods existed in this world, they could not help but feel terrified.
Seeing their faces full of guilt and fear, Jack said, “All right, let’s get back to the main topic. who was the culprit behind the Halloween disappearance case? In the next twenty years or so, more than twenty people mysteriously disappeared from Kessel City. All of them were unregistered and undocumented. All of them disappeared as if they had disappeared from the world. Who was the culprit? I know what you are thinking. Do you think that I can’t continue playing the game just because you refuse to admit it?”
Tom’s eyes were gloomy. He had to admit that the Death Inquisitor was indeed exceptional in terms of psychology and intelligence. Everything seemed to be under his control, which made him very passive and unhappy.
Jack continued, “You only need to give an order to kill people. I’m playing a game with you, but I have to collect evidence. You are indeed richer than me, but I’ve disappointed you. I’ve found the key evidence. I’ve found one of the bullets that you used to kill four people with the wall. It was fired from a 64 police pistol. The serial number is 13145. Charles, you’re familiar with it, right?”
As he spoke, an ink-green bullet appeared in the live broadcast room. It was covered in moss and rust.
Beside it was the Police Handgun No. 64,13145. The name of the user at the time, Charles, was clearly written on it.
At this moment, Charles’s heart was in turmoil, and his expression was extremely ugly.
How could it be? The four people had all sunk into the mud. Where did he find the bullet? Could it be that he had entered the mud?
“Impossible. You’re framing me. You’re making this up. I didn’t kill anyone.”
There were so many people watching. How could he admit anything? This was not a public confession. Even if he could not die in the game, he would still be shot in the end. He was not that stupid.
Now, all his hopes were placed on the Zero Major Crimes Squad. It was only a ten-minute journey to the County Public Security Bureau. If nothing went wrong, as long as they could hold on for ten minutes, they might be saved.
Tom thought the same. He had seen the live broadcast of death before. The torturers in it were either skinned or had cramps. It looked very enjoyable from an outsider’s point of view, but the situation this time was different.
This time, he was the person being tortured.
From the moment he regained consciousness, his entire being was filled with fear. He was afraid. If he had a choice, he would rather be arrested by the police than be tortured to death. Although he could pass the test by passing the game, in the end, how many people would be able to escape successfully?
Jack looked at their terrified faces and said coldly, “I will send the victim’s body, bullet, and other clues directly to the Zero Major Crimes squad. They believe that they will investigate and obtain evidence. Now, I want to play a game with you.”
As soon as he said that, Tom and the others froze. Their pupils shrank. The word “game” was like a death knell that rang in hell and deeply stimulated their souls.
The three of them immediately broke down.
“No, you devil, I don’t want to play games.”
“F*ck you! Don’t play this game by yourself. What kind of bullshit game is this? It’s just an excuse. You want to play us to death!”
“No, Help! I don’t want to play any games. I’ll turn myself in. I’ll confess and be lenient.”
No one at the scene sympathized with them. They had brought this upon themselves. They hadn’t been the police chief, but they had done something illegal. They had disregarded human lives, flouted the law, and committed all kinds of evil. Death was the lightest punishment for them.
Even if the people agreed to have them killed, their souls would still rot in hell for the dozens of lives they had killed.
Jack would not agree either. A cold voice rang out from the iron box and lingered in the sky above the No-Man’s Land for a long time.
“It’s too late!”
