On the other hand, Xu Zhenyu received orders from his superiors, who informed him that he was allowed to take part in the interrogation of the three terrorists. He had only mentioned the matter to his grandfather once and yet, he was given the green light right after. He didn’t expect it either.

Xu Zhenyu drove to the place where the military held the three terrorists captive. The terrorists were extremely cunning and hence, the military had to prevent against them. He knew that the military had interrogated the terrorists in the past few days and even fed them with a chemical that was supposed to make them tell the truth. However, none of the interrogation methods could make them spill the beans.

Not only did the terrorists belong to an organization, but they had also undergone strict training which made them immune to a vast array of chemicals. They also had a very strong willpower.

He was not hoping to find out anything from the terrorists and merely wanted to find out more about Wen Xinya’s abduction. He hoped to deal with Xia Ruya by making the terrorists reveal information about her.

The room was rather small and dark. It felt extremely inhibiting and one was bound to develop negative feelings when trapped inside the room.

The few terrorists were locked up separately and the first person Xu Zhenyu saw was No. 3, who threatened Wen Xinya.

No. 3 was sitting on the ground and leaning against the gray wall with his eyes closed, seemingly pretending to be asleep. He looked pale and his features seemed to be more pronounced as his eyes were sunken. His lips were dry and his sideburns were obvious. He looked extremely dejected and was no longer as arrogant as he was when threatening Wen Xinya.

Xu Zhenyu kicked him and said, “Don’t play dead. I have something to ask you.”

No. 3 opened his bloodshot eyes which looked terrifying and intimidating. He spat some saliva onto the ground and said, “Do what you want. Kill me, hit me, whatever. But you can forget about making me speak up.”

Xu Zhenyu grabbed No. 3 by his collar and began beating him up. “You’re already at the brink of death and yet, you’re still getting arrogant with me. Why are you getting haughty? Ah…”

At the thought of the abductors abducting Wen Xinya, Xu Zhenyu fumed with anger. He was exasperated at the fact that they had caused Wen Xinya to be hospitalized and put through immense suffering.

No. 3 was forced to ingest a sedation chemical which made it impossible for him to resist at all. It was an agent that would make one’s muscles relax completely and feel weak all over.

Xu Zhenyu beat No. 3 into a pulp and flung him onto the ground before kicking him again forcefully. “Listen up, you have to obey me now that you’re in my hands. Answer whatever I ask you. Otherwise, I’ll make sure to make you bear the consequences.”

No. 3 sprawled across the ground, his mouth full of blood. He spat the blood and a broken tooth onto the ground. “Don’t make yourself out to be so high-sounding. If it weren’t because of Rex, would you have been able to arrest us? I’m telling you… as long as we had the hostage, you guys wouldn’t have been able to do anything. You’d be at my beck and call!”

As much as Xu Zhenyu hated to admit it, he could not deny the fact that No. 3 was telling the truth. If it weren’t because of that mysterious man, he wouldn’t have been able to rescue Wen Xinya and would be at the beck and call of the terrorists. It was a fact that he had no choice but to accept.

Turning pale in exasperation, Xu Zhenyu beat him up again and asked, “Who is that person that you’ve mentioned? Is he the mysterious man who rescued the hostage? Who exactly is he?”

Due to the fact that No. 3’s voice was muffled because of the blood in his mouth, Xu Zhenyu could not hear the name clearly.

No. 3 guffawed maniacally and said, “Hahaha, I’m not going to tell you.”

No. 3 did not expect that he would one day land in the hands of the military. He had merely wanted to kidnap Wen Xinya for money. Yet, she turned out to be Rex’s woman and Rex actually intervened because of her.

He had been remembering the time when his boss and No. 2 boarded the helicopter. They thought that they had gotten a huge ransom and could flee for good. Yet, there was a sudden tremor in the plan which resulted in the hostage breaking free from their clutches. By the time the helicopter stopped jerking, they were already subdued by several men in black.

It was his first time seeing Rex, the legendary figure of Russia, in the flesh. Rex had incredible abilities and was elegant, classy and refined. Back then, Rex was sitting quietly like a worldly god and staring down at them condescendingly. It was as if they were tiny ants beneath his feet.

They clearly had the chance to retaliate. However, when met with Si Yiyan’s cold and menacing eyes, they lost their willpower instantly and felt inhibited, oppressed and threatened. He had once heard that snakes were threatening predators that would do everything that they could to engulf their prey. They would deprive the prey of their abilities, mentality, willpower and movement.

Although Si Yiyan was not a snake, his gaze was just as formidable and terrifying.

They were then beaten into a pulp and his head began bleeding while his arm was crippled. No. 2’s leg was also crippled and he heard Rex telling his subordinates that they were retaliating.

Actually, he was clear that Rex was taking revenge for his woman!

It was just like when she provoked Anatoli from the Ivanov Family.

Xu Zhenyu flew into a rage and began kicking him. “Are you going to talk or not? Who is the mysterious man who rescued the hostage? Apart from you guys, who else was involved in abducting Xinya?”

No. 3 laid motionlessly on the ground, unable to move at all. He was suddenly enlightened at the thought of Wen Xinya. “I know, you like that woman. You’re just taking revenge for her and venting all your anger on me now, aren’t you? Hahahaha… the more you want to know who he is, the more I’m not going to tell you!”

Xu Zhenyu picked him up again and pinned him against the wall. “Are you going to speak up or not?”

No. 3 did not bother answering Xu Zhenyu at all.

Xu Zhenyu grabbed no. 3’s shoulders and rammed him against the wall like how he did to Wen Xinya. “I shall see if your body is tougher than your lips.”

No. 3 felt an intense pain in the back of his head. However, he still remained tight-lipped and refused to speak.

Xu Zhenyu slammed him against the wall again and said, “These questions are not confidential information for your organization. What’s the point of keeping it a secret? I suggest you’d better answer my question truthfully. You’ll suffer lesser pain if you do.”

No. 3 sneered. “Regardless of whether I speak or not, I’ll still be facing death. Why must I make your life easier?”

Xu Zhenyu barked sternly. “Seems like you won’t know the consequences until you face it.”

At last, Xu Zhenyu did not manage to find out anything. The man in gray and the man in black both remained silent throughout.
