Between life and death [unlimited]

Although the conversation between Hazar and his son just now was not long, it was definitely not short.

And the players also noticed that when Mo Chi was speaking, he also looked at them from the corner of his eye, and the child's originally dull face showed a look of fear.

It seems that Mo Chi's father, Khazar, did not tell the truth to all the players.

Combined with the peeping from Mo Chi just now, the players guessed that the father and son were probably hiding something.

But Charles, who has been in charge of leading the topic, didn't say anything about it. He just moved the chopsticks in his hand after Mo Chi enthusiastically urged him to hit him after he started eating.

As if nothing happened, the players slowly ate around the delicious food on the table.

Before entering the living space, when Jiang Lai was still in the organization, he rarely went on missions with Jiang Ke.To be more precise, the killers in "Predator" are all lone rangers, and they have always completed tasks alone, rarely requiring cooperation.

So now, Jiang Shou looked at Jiang Ke's peaceful appearance, eating gracefully there, and suddenly became curious about how Jiang Ke, who has entered the living space for a long time and has always been a thunderbolt, would complete this task.

—Will she finish the task very quickly like she said when she first woke up?

Just as Jiang Xun expected, after Jiang Ke had a little understanding of the background of this special task, he already had a rough guess about their task "Completing Wei Guoping's mood" and how to complete it.

The calmness she is showing now is not pretending, but because she is really confident in completing this special task-she has been in the living space for so many years, and she has performed tens of thousands of tasks if not thousands.

For different types of tasks, whether it is to complete the tasks assigned by the target person or to catch the real murderer, Jiang Ke has summed up a set of different coping plans based on his own experience.

Moreover, these experiential knowledge belonged to the content that those trainee knights had to learn first after joining the Divine Blessed Knights.

However, Jiang Ke is an airborne "Golden Knight", and Jiang Ke has not had time to tell Jiang Shang yet.

However, as James and Shire who have followed her for a long time, they can probably guess what kind of task the leader will let them perform next with every look or expression of Jiang Ke.

You must know that when the police interrogate some cunning suspects, they will also adopt a special interrogation policy for some cunning suspects—they will not be the same, all of them are "leniency for confession and strictness for resistance"—for special objects, it should be When you are loose, you have to be a little looser, because if some people are pushed too hard, they will really be so hard-spoken that they can't explain anything.

Therefore, when everyone bowed their heads to eat, they didn't directly talk about some topics about this mission. It was just that the "diplomat" Charles kept chatting with Hazar casually and aimlessly. .

When the food on the table was almost eaten by everyone, that is to say, when Khazar should be full and his blood was basically concentrated in his stomach, Charles seemed to mention it casually.

"Hazal, your village has such a unique scenery, do you usually have many reporters like us come to collect stories?"

Sure enough, Hazar smacked his lips, as if he was still reminiscing about the food he ate just now.After all, Khazar is usually not willing to eat these "expensive" food for himself and his children.

After chatting with Charles a little familiarly, and after drinking a few cups of gut-piercing "water", Hazar, who was already a little over the top, heard this question and said like a joke: "We have a saying called—— —”

At this point, he deliberately paused, and then, the players heard Khazar babbled a bunch of local languages ​​again.

After finishing speaking, Hazar took the initiative to translate: "In Mandarin, it means—'The outside world is bliss'."

"The outside world is bliss..." Charles couldn't help repeating on his own lips, and everyone else began to ponder this profound sentence in their hearts.

At this time, Hazar suddenly raised his head, and his eyes swept across the players one by one with a little sharpness.

Not as malnourished and mentally ill as before, Khazar's eyes at this moment seemed to contain many different kinds of complex emotions.

Even his withered face, which resembled a skeleton, seemed to have softened a lot.

"Very few people will come here. Only you, and the man who disappeared here before..."

The players know that the "missing man" that Hazar said should refer to Wei Guoping that the players are looking for.

"But here, what's there?"

In the last sentence, Hazar seemed to be talking to himself, his voice was so low that even Mo Chi beside him could hardly hear: "But this is my hometown, my home..."

Khazar's mental state has obviously become depressed.At this time, Jiang Ke suddenly spoke, and made a request to Hazard that sounded unreasonable and insignificant.

"Hazal, could you please give me a glass of cold water? I want to drink some water."

Jiang Ke's voice didn't have any ups and downs, but it was by no means an annoying commanding tone, but a kind of strength that made people feel genuine and couldn't help but want to succumb.

After hearing the guest's request, Hazar also came back to his senses immediately.

"Is it cold?" But he still asked Jiang Ke with some uncertainty: "It's so cold, are you sure, do you want it to be cold?"

Jiang Ke just nodded expressionlessly.

Although this request sounds a bit strange, it is not too much, so Hazard nodded bluntly and said, "Okay. Then please, wait a moment."

Soon, Hazar filled Jiang Ke with a full glass of cold water from the tank filled with clean well water in the kitchen.

Jiang Ke raised his eyebrows again and gestured to Charles with his eyes—this meant to let him ask something more at will.

So after receiving the instructions from the head of the group, Charles asked Hazard with a playful smile, "Hazar, how old is Mochi this year?"

"Seven years old."

It may be because Mo Chi suffers from a disability, or he may have suffered from malnutrition since he was a child, so the thin Mo Chi looks like a five or six-year-old half-grown child.

Hazar also thought of this content, and took the initiative to add: "Mo Chi, it looks small."

Since it was still raining outside, Hazard could still clearly feel the icy coolness coming from his hand when he walked towards Jiang Ke with a cup.

However, the impact of this low temperature on Hazard is still negligible.

"Mo Chi is so old this year?" Charles deliberately exaggerated: "Then has he gone to school now, or is he planning to go to school?"

As a result, Hazar directly answered Shire's question without thinking: "No."

His tone sounded very firm.

"This kid has an arm like this." Then, Hazarbi stroked his left arm and said to the players, "How do you go to school?"

"But Mo Chi's right hand is not perfect, is there any problem? Even if he only uses his right hand, he should be able to write."

However, after hearing what Charles said, Hazar shook his head very stubbornly: "Then he can't learn, what."

"Besides, one month's subsistence allowance is so much, it's better not to go to school and save some money."

As Hazard said more, the players also found that Mo Chi, who was sitting next to him, buried his head lower.

In the end, the Hazard cold water was handed to Jiang Ke. Standing next to her, he let out a loud belch contentedly, and said, "If you don't go to school, Mo Chi should go to the field to help."

Although the state provides monthly subsidies for disabled children, it is clear that Hazar has only one idea—he doesn't want Mochi to go to school because he feels that it is a waste of money.

After all, this matter is a family matter, and it's hard for Charles to say anything.After realizing that he had completed the task of the leader, he stopped talking.

But Charles was very keenly aware that Mo Chi, who was sitting across from him, was much more sluggish than before, after he had managed to get up just now.

It seems that Mo Chi should understand what his father said just now.It's a pity that this disabled child dared not refute anything.

After the sumptuous dinner that night, Hazarmochi and his son are still responsible for the aftermath, such as washing dishes, washing dishes and other trivial chores.

However, players who have been "eating and drinking for free" in the missions will still feel very embarrassed about the fact that Mo Chi, who is not only young but also disabled, is always busy for them.

So, Jiang Ke brought Xia Er, Jiang Li and the others to Hazar who was washing the dishes.

It's just that after the players asked Mo Chi to return to the room, Hazard still refused to let Jiang Ke and the others do it himself, as if he had to take care of all these trivial matters by himself.

But under the guidance of Jiang Ke's eyes, Charles still moved over to a small Maza, and sat down with Hazar in a shameless manner.

The oil-stained dishes were piled up high in the big basin. The dishes prepared by Khazar included common home-cooked dishes and local specialties. The players were also very full at the table just now.

Perhaps because it would be easier to do so, Hazar directly filled a basin of cold water from the water tank to wash the leftover tableware.

When he put his hands in it, it took him a little while to get used to it, the bitingly cold low temperature in the basin.

"By the way, we heard before we came that a reporter was missing here." While washing the dishes, Charles chatted with Khazar as if he had nothing to say.

"Hazal, do you know whose house this man lived in in your village before he disappeared?"

"This..." Hazard's tone sounded obviously hesitant, and his accent still sounded so weird.

After understanding the question asked by Charles, Lake Khazar felt as if the water in the basin had become cooler, and the cold feeling from his fingertips was constantly stimulating his nerves.

But he finally said honestly to Charles: "He is, and lives in my house."

However, Hazar seemed very afraid that Shire and the others would leave as soon as they knew the truth, and he quickly added: "However, he is not at my house, missing."

"The police have asked about these things. My family doesn't have any problems." Hazar swore to the players.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Charles' tone didn't sound like he cared much—of course, this was his faking—however, Charles' indifference made Hazar instantly relieved. tone.

Then he heard Charles ask: "Hey, then do you know what he is here for?" Charles pointed to the machinery and equipment behind him: "He is the same as us, did he come here to take pictures? "

"Yes, he also took pictures. I saw him in the field when he was taking pictures."

"Then after this man disappeared, the police in your town must have come here to investigate many times, right?" Charles turned back to this topic again.

Maybe he got used to this quick question-and-answer mode, and while brushing the plate in his hand, Hazar quickly replied: "Yes."

However, Shire was caught off guard and asked Hazard other questions.

"Hey, by the way, is Mo Chi's handicap a natural thing? Is this the child born with arms like this?"

As a result, as soon as the question was uttered, Khazar's work suddenly stopped for a while.

After a while, he said slowly, "Yes."

Then Khazar repeated it to Shire: "Mochi, it's a congenital handicap." But his tone sounded unchanged.

"Poor Mo Chi...then have you been called by the police for questioning a while ago? What about Mo Chi, he is so young, shouldn't he be used?"

After finally cleaning most of the "hill pile" of dishes in front of him, Hazar shivered all over his body as if he couldn't bear it.

He tried his best to restrain his range of movements, tried his best to keep his tone without any pause, and said, "Yes, Mo Chi didn't."

"Only adults have been called to go."

But after he finished speaking, Hazar subconsciously rubbed his hands that were so cold that he seemed to have lost consciousness.

"Do you feel cold?" Charles noticed Hazar's movement, and joked with him as if joking: "Why do I feel that the temperature of the water is not bad? Did you eat too little just now?"

Khazar didn't say anything more this time, just smiled awkwardly.

Jiang Ke and Jiang Shui, who had known the knowledge of human micro-expressions before, could accurately judge that Hazard must be lying after seeing Hazard's behavior just now.

Because when people lie, the hormone secretion in the body will produce certain changes.Approximate specific manifestations will include rapid heartbeat, frequent cold sweats on the palms or back, anxiety about your own lies, and unconsciously repeating the false content that you have fabricated.

And under the interference of external factors, such as being in a humid or cold environment, these lying performances will seem more obvious.

Hazar's performance just now basically conforms to these characteristics.It seems that Hazar should know something about Wei Guoping's disappearance.

It's just that I didn't expect that Shire's random question about Mochi's disability might have some kind of hidden connection with Hazar...

——Could it be that Mo Chi's disability may have hidden secrets?

After discovering that Hazard kept silent and stopped saying anything, Charles stopped embarrassing Hazard.

With Shire's help, the two quickly cleaned the dishes.After putting away all the dishes, Khazar finally returned to the stove in the kitchen.

Just at this moment, a fire was being lit in the stove—this was what Hazar had ordered Mo Chi to do before, and he was afraid that the guests would feel the coldness in the room after the rain.

But now, this fire seems to be more important to him.Khazar thanked himself for having the ability to "see the future".

Charles also noticed that Hazard's face looked better, so he said to Hazard with a smile: "I'm very curious, and I like to pursue those weird and bizarre things. So, after I know that someone is missing here , I asked you a lot of questions."

"Of course, this may also be because of my professionalism. You know, I'm a reporter. Hazar, I hope you don't mind, and don't take it to heart."

After getting close to the stove, Hazar finally felt that his body temperature had recovered a bit, and the temperature of his hands was not as cold as before.

So he pretended to be generous and said to Charles: "Okay, it doesn't matter."

At this moment, the rain outside was getting heavier, and everyone sitting in the house felt that there was a vague "battle of bullets" terror outside.

Hazar also looked thoughtfully at the intermittent heavy rain outside the window.

He suddenly felt that the scene outside now was exactly the same as that night half a month ago.
