【Chapter 368】Special Bet
Liu Zaijie's side seemed to have expected Du Jin's decision. After all, Du Jin could only rely on his own side now. Unless Du Jin wanted to go deep into the enemy camp alone and risk a 1000% chance of being discovered, then he had to use Liu Zaijie's channel. , In fact, in Liu Zaijie's mind, Du Jin is just a factor that breaks the situation. If Du Jin fails to respond or perform, as long as the situation permits, he can hand over Du Jin without hesitation in exchange for the safety of himself and his troops. Some rights, for which he does not feel any guilt. After all, Du Jin is just a stranger, and the comrades and soldiers who fight with him are like relatives. If Du Jin, I am afraid he would do something similar action.
Fortunately, the worst-case scenario did not happen. When Du Jin followed the officer back to the temporary combat command room, Du Jin obviously found that some of the soldiers coming and going were missing, which made him a little worried. Whether it was the shortage of personnel caused by the victory on the battlefield and the beginning of the advance, or the sharp decline in manpower due to excessive casualties, no matter what the situation was, Du Jin realized that his plan had to be accelerated, otherwise he would wait for his competitors to take action. We’ve finished eating the peaches, so it’s all for nothing if we go alone.
When he saw Liu Zaijie, Du Jin didn't notice that his mood was at a low point, so he ruled out the worst case scenario. He didn't wait for the other person to ask about his plan first, and said directly:
"Commander Liu, I have a plan that can remove the stigma of your army while clearing my suspicion. However, I cannot disclose the specific details for the time being. I can only say that the The person behind the scenes had the same original intention of sending me here as the military government. Although the situation is somewhat different now, the essence of my mission has not changed. Now I only need Commander Liu to provide me with a set of exoskeleton armor, preferably with an agility coefficient. A high penetration type, a weapon that is easy to hide, and preferably a path map that can avoid the control and surveillance of the garrison force as much as possible, but other than that, I don’t need anything else.”
Hearing Du Jin's words, a staff officer beside Liu Zaijie couldn't hold his breath at first and scolded Du Jin softly:
"Dr. Du, you should know your identity. Now you are no better than us. You don't have any mission details or plan deployment. It's like asking us to prepare for you, and you have to bear the responsibility of being accused by the military government of harboring a wanted criminal. How do you feel about the risk of fame..."
"Okay, don't be so reactive. This is a combat conference room, not a debate venue. If you have any questions, please tell me in private!"
Liu Zaijie stopped his staff officer first. The staff officer glanced at Du Jin, and then could only say to Liu Zaijie:
"Understood, sir!"
Liu Zaijie stared at Du Jin for a few seconds, then his serious eyes widened and he smiled, pointing at Du Jin and said:
"Yes, although you are not a soldier, your perseverance and confidence are somewhat similar to those of me before. Since you are in trouble and can't tell me the content of the plan, you can! I will pass the armor you want. As for the weapons, well... ....."
He looked around, finally put a weapon on his waist that was larger than a conventional self-defense laser pistol, pointed at it and said to Du Jin:
"This is my sidearm. Although this is not the one I have always carried since I joined the army, I have fully verified its performance and reliability. Although its killing effect on armored units is not very good, it is The suppression effect on their auxiliary shooting system is quite good. Of course, I don’t recommend you to verify this in battle. As for the information you want, I can’t help you. If I can understand the station’s defense layout and combat strength Deployed, I could have launched a counterattack long ago instead of passively defending.”
In fact, Du Jin had expected what Liu Zaijie said. Before he had any actual results, it was impossible to put this kind of information on the family background to the public. He did not believe that Liu Zaijie would not know the layout of the residential area at the station headquarters all year round, let alone What's more, judging from Liu Zaijie's current command ability, prestige in the army, and the number of people who follow him, before he was framed by the Heyi Church as a "rebel", he was definitely a member of the real power faction. Even if the war broke out, it would definitely happen. There will be major changes in the deployment of troops, but those in authority cannot let too many subordinates or soldiers know about some positions, because that is likely to be their only way to survive in the future, so there are only a few people and soldiers who know these special passages.
Even if Liu Zaijie has "defected", it does not mean that this special channel is invalid. At most, the identity verification will be replaced. Otherwise, the chance of overturning if you want to find another channel during the war is too high. In this case, Du Jin also It was impossible to force Liu Zaijie anymore. If he was pushed into a hurry, it might not be impossible to tie up Du Jin and send him away. However, Du Jin was not unable to prepare to directly cross the battlefield. Firstly, he did not have the ability; secondly, he could not Don't have the guts.
"I understand. Then Commander Liu, can you bring me a prisoner of high enough level? Of course, it would be best if it is a prisoner whose crime can be said to be heinous. I only need a few minutes to extract information from him. , and I will also share some of the information that is beneficial to you, as a "deposit" to Commander Liu for helping me, how about it?"
Hearing Du Jin's promise, almost everyone present scoffed and joked. If it were a prisoner of war who couldn't pry open his mouth even with the professional interrogation methods in the army, Du Jin, a civilian who looked immature and harmless to humans and animals, might be able to pry him open. Open, if the other side strikes back, the person whose mouth may be pried open is not the prisoner of war but Du Jin. However, due to Liu Zaijie's attitude just now, they did not say anything directly except for the mocking look on their faces. Liu Zaijie said He glanced at Du Jin meaningfully, and then asked with a hint of doubt and expectation:
"Are you sure you have such interrogation skills?"
Du Jin shook his head and replied:
"Honestly, I don't know much about interrogation techniques. In my understanding, these methods are undoubtedly isolation, sleep deprivation, sensory deprivation, extreme suppression and a series of methods to adjust human physiological limits. My character is not capable of this. , I used another method, which to be precise is related to psychological suggestion and consciousness control. This ability is also the main reason why the Ganymede military government values me. Of course, its side effects are quite obvious, that is, in After I get the information I need, the other person's sense of autonomy will be irreversibly changed and become dependent and dull. Therefore, I need to confirm whether the other person deserves it. Otherwise, if I wrongly accuse someone who should not be punished, I will also feel guilty in my heart. Sorry.”
Regarding his abilities, Du Jin has almost said all the important things. What he is worried about now is not the hidden dangers caused by his abilities being known to others, but that he is afraid that the value he has shown is not enough. Furthermore, he needs to explain himself clearly. The side effects of abilities can also serve as a warning to some people, but before Du Jin finished speaking and Liu Zaijie had not spoken, a burly man seemed to be unable to bear it any longer. Du Jin was a little suspicious when he first saw him. I am afraid that the exoskeleton armor cannot be inserted at all, and it needs special specifications. He walked to Du Jin, lowered his head slightly and looked at Du Jin, as if looking at a clown and asked mockingly:
"Hahaha, I, Lao Zhang, have never heard of this kind of ability. Those prisoners of war all came here at the risk of their lives. As far as your hypnosis can have any effect, I think you are just pretending to be crazy and showing off your foolish thoughts. You have to run for your life. If you really have the ability, you can control me. I don’t believe it. Now that the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and such liars can come here, then wouldn’t I be responsible for the security here for nothing? ?”
While Du Jin was talking to the other party, he asked Xiao Ai to investigate the other party's identity, and immediately learned that he was a professional soldier who had been in the army for more than decades. He was a comrade who had followed Liu Zaijie when he was an officer in the Xia Kingdom. After Liu Zaijie was listed as After becoming a traitor, Du Jin left the establishment without a word and followed Liu Zaijie here regardless of the consequences. He was definitely his confidant and right-hand man. Hearing the questioning and ridicule of this officer Zhang, Du Jin did not show any anger or humiliation. , just looked at him quietly. Liu Zaijie on the side just wanted to reconcile, Du Jin's voice clearly reached their ears:
"Of course, no problem. I don't need any preparation. I just need to look at you, Commander Zhang. If I don't succeed within five seconds, then I lose. No matter what the punishment or bet is, I can accept it, but If you lose, Chief Zhang..."
"If I lose, how about I, Lao Zhang, kneel down and call you "Master" three times! Hahaha."
He forcibly interrupted Du Jin's words, and then laughed, and many people in the entire command room also laughed. In their opinion, Du Jin was just trying to save face and suffer, and used his little tricks to deal with those who were... People who don’t understand, but for people like me who have been through the rain of bullets and the high-pressure environment like hell on the battlefield, let alone hypnosis, even those brutal and inhumane interrogations, it is not a big problem for them, so They were all waiting to see Du Jin's embarrassed appearance and jokes.
When Liu Zaijie saw this scene, he didn't know what to say. In fact, he also wanted to see if the ability Du Jin said was as real as he said. Then Du Jin was really pretending to be crazy and just wanted to borrow it. If he escapes in the name of finding a way to break the situation, then there is no need to invest in him. Handing Du Jin over is the most cost-effective possibility. If there is indeed something outstanding, even if it is not as outrageous as Du Jin promised, Liu Zaijie didn't mind increasing his investment appropriately to make full use of his value, so Liu Zaijie didn't take sides or stop anything, he just watched from the sidelines.
After a simple preparation, Du Jin looked up slightly at Officer Zhang, who was nearly two meters tall. The amusement in his eyes had faded away, and all that was left was coldness and caution. As a person who had come through bloodshed, he would not underestimate any potential risks. It is the most basic principle. Anyone who does not abide by this principle has long been slaughtered by those who pretend to be pigs and eat tigers. Although in his eyes, Du Jin is most likely Mr. Nanguo who pretends to be fake, he still treats everything that follows very seriously and seriously. , Apart from anything else, if I really lose the bet due to carelessness, I, as the party who provoked this competition, will really have no shame in staying here if I don't fulfill what I said.
