Chapter 130 True Death Game (31)
"Master Shen, put away your noble and indifferent look. You are just a mouse caught by a cat."
Gu Jinan gave a mocking smile and motioned to the people around him to bring a chair.
After a while, the people below brought a leather sofa chair. Gu Jinan crossed his legs, straightened his body, sat high up, and looked coldly at Shen Qingning, who was like a crippled tiger trapped in Pingyang.
"Master Shen, do you want to guess how long it will take Lin Zicheng to find you?"
After saying that, Gu Jinan raised his wrist, looked at the watch, and said with interest: "Is half an hour enough? Lin Zicheng never participates in this kind of game at school. I always give some benefits to newcomers."
Shen Qingning sneered: "Don't put your stupidity on Zicheng."
"Since Young Master Shen is so confident in Lin Zicheng, why don't we play a game that Lin Zicheng is very familiar with." Gu Jinan raised his hand and hooked his index finger. He An appeared from nowhere, holding a metal ring with a thin wire in his hand.
Shen Qingning had heard Lin Zicheng mention this kind of "torture device". It was an iron ring like a dog collar with a thin and sharp wire tied to it. As long as the owner pulled the wire, the metal would gradually shrink until the "pet" in the ring died.
He An walked up to him with a slightly apologetic look on his face and whispered "sorry". In order to prevent Shen Qingning from struggling, the people around him put a metal ring around his neck violently without thinking.
The cold touch of the metal made Shen Qingning shiver.
Gu Jinan held the end of the wire and moved his fingers slightly, and Shen Qingning immediately felt some difficulty breathing.
He couldn't imagine how Lin Zicheng endured the double torture of physical and mental torture back then.
"Master Shen, this iron ring is nothing compared to the one Lin Zicheng has worn before, but it can also be used to test your confidence in Lin Zicheng. It can shrink three times in total, the one just now counts, and there are two more." Gu Jinan's eyes were cold, revealing a strange smile, "Half an hour is not suitable for Lin Zicheng, how about twenty minutes? I will pull it up once every ten minutes, and the last time depends on your fate."
Shen Qingning showed no fear at all. Even though his hands were tied behind his back and there was a dog collar around his neck, he still maintained his innate nobility and elegance.
"Why are you targeting Lin Zicheng? We all saw him protecting you two brothers back then." Shen Qingning smiled at him, "You're repaying kindness with enmity. I never thought that I would be able to witness the real-life version of the farmer and the snake in my lifetime."
"Why?" Gu Jin'an looked at him with interest. "Since we still have time, why don't we reminisce about the past."
"I'm all ears." Shen Qingning's eyes curved slightly, with a fake smile on her face.
Gu Jinan put down her long legs and looked at him expressionlessly: "The first time I saw Lin Zicheng was when he was six years old. Even now, I still think he was very handsome. But because of his first help, Xia Detang found the Gu family. Others only saw that the Gu family was resurrected, but they didn't know that the people of the Gu family had already been collared."
"Under Xia Detang's torture, my parents and Qiu Chi's parents died early. Young Master Shen was born in a warm and harmonious family, and he will never understand how a child who lost both parents lives under the clutches of the devil." Gu Jinan's eyes were burning with murderous intent, as if he had returned to his childhood, and his hands subconsciously grabbed the armrests of the chair.
Shen Qingning frowned slightly. When the elders of the Gu family passed away, the outside world said that they died of exhaustion in order to make the Gu family regain its glory as soon as possible. I didn't expect that there was such a relationship. Shen Qingning's heart sank. How could Lin Zicheng bear the torture that even the adults couldn't bear?
"Master Shen, are you kidding me?" Gu Jinan laughed. "Lin Zicheng was clearly trying to save us, but why did he push us into a deeper hell in the end?"
"If it weren't for him, would my parents have stayed by my side like your parents?" Gu Jinan's voice was a little hoarse when he said this. "Qiu Chi is the only relative I have now. I participated in this game just to save him!"
"Once people reach a desperate situation, they will begin to pray for God to come down in their hearts." Shen Qingning smiled silently, "Gu Jinan, do you really believe that there is such a medicine in the world? Don't lie to yourself, you are just seeking a little psychological comfort to make your future life more comfortable, why bother to be a hypocrite, after all, Gu Qiuchi is willing to do anything for you."
Gu Jinan's face turned pale instantly. He An beside him was like a loyal guardian dog. He kept an eye on Gu Jinan's situation while staring at Shen Qingning hungrily, as if he was going to pounce on and dismember Shen Qingning in the next second.
"Miss He, don't look at me like that." Shen Qingning shrugged and said helplessly, "What I said is all true. What you did, Gu Qiuchi also did, just to protect his young brother who has no ability to protect himself."
"Master Shen, you really have investigated everyone very clearly." Gu Jinan's hoarse voice was filled with anger. "If you provoke me again, are you afraid that I will accidentally pull the wire?"
Shen Qingning smiled but did not answer.
In the empty room on the top floor of the C Hotel, Wen Yan stood in front of the French window, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, shaking it slowly, with a sly smile in his green eyes: "My king never participated in this kind of game before, not because of love, but because it was too boring. Even if the mouse doesn't have a locator on it, he can find it quickly."
Tang Yuan swallowed a little. Based on his observation of Lin Zicheng, he found that this top second-generation rich man was more thoughtful than people over 50. Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had a strange temper, he was still like a human being.
"This kind of lowly rat game can't kill my king."
Hearing this, he looked out the window thoughtfully. Even at 4:30 in the morning, the lights were still on.
As soon as Li Yize got the things that Shen Qingning left in the car, he realized that something was wrong and immediately called Lin Zicheng.
"Officer Li, if your message had been ten minutes later, you could have directly collected the bodies for Qingning and me."
Lin Zicheng's voice was calm, without a trace of impatience.
Li Yize paused and heard the obvious sound of wind coming from Lin Zicheng's side. He probably guessed that Lin Zicheng had already stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.
"Where are you going now?" Li Yize asked anxiously. After all they had been through, he had unconsciously considered the two of them friends. "I'll bring people to look for you."
Lin Zicheng: "Just bring an ambulance."
Li Yize hesitated for a while and asked: "...Are you serious?"
Lin Zicheng did not answer, but pointed out again: "Officer Li, I need an ambulance you can trust."
Li Yize shuddered. Could it be that the person they were looking for had already blended into every class like flowing water?
"Time flies, it's already ten minutes." Gu Jinan looked at his watch and said with a hint of regret, "Master Shen, you lost ten minutes."
After saying that, he pulled his finger, and the metal ring immediately shrank a lot. Shen Qingning felt that he had to breathe deeply to ensure the beating of his heart. At this time, he could no longer speak, and the evildoer's face was pale and almost bloodless.
"Master Shen, your life is not in my hands, but in Lin Zicheng's." Gu Jinan stood up, walked to Shen Qingning, and looked him up and down. "You, Qiu Zeyu, and Zhou Mushen always looked down on us. Didn't you expect that one day you would be caught by me?"
"You think... after crawling above ground... for a few days... you are no longer... a rat." Shen Qingning said with difficulty and intermittently, "Rats... rats... are always... dirty... underground..."
At this time, a younger brother hurriedly ran to Gu Jinan and reported the situation in a low voice.
Gu Jinan showed some admiration in his eyes and smiled at Shen Qingning: "Master Shen, I advise you to say less and save some energy to breathe."
Shen Qingning knew that Lin Zicheng had already come. According to Gu Jinan's plan, he would make Lin Zicheng get rid of the people who were protecting him secretly first, and then conduct a thorough body search before allowing them to meet.
In his heart, he both hoped that Lin Zicheng would come and yet, at the same time, he did not want Lin Zicheng to come.
Gu Jinan's target has always been Lin Zicheng, using him as bait to lure Lin Zicheng into a trap. From the previous communication and his behavior towards him, it can be seen that Gu Jinan hates Xia Detang, and when Xia Detang died, he transferred this hatred to Lin Zicheng.
The methods that Xia Detang used on them would naturally be used on Lin Zicheng as well.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingning's face darkened and he felt a chill on his back.
Lin Zicheng has experienced this once, and he cannot go through it again!
Shen Qingning would rather get hurt herself than see Lin Zicheng isolate herself again!
He finally waited for Lin Zicheng to open a tiny gap!
He gave everything he had to hear Lin Zicheng say "I like"!
If Lin Zicheng returns to his old self again...
While Shen Qingning was daydreaming, he was interrupted by the sharp and piercing sound of the wheels rubbing against the ground above his head.
"Master Shen, the show is about to begin."
