449: Demoulan and Roy, is something wrong with them?!
Looking at Geheros and the GTI Supreme Commander who had suddenly appeared beside him.
It would be a lie for Jacob to say he wasn't surprised.
He and Demulan had not seen what happened on the battlefield.
Skynet had already been destroyed, and all the street cameras had been removed.
They could only listen to what had roughly happened through the microphone on Commander Hafke's side.
And the listening equipment had long since been cut off by Demulan.
As for video footage, under those circumstances, besides Mai Xiaowen and her group, who would dare to record Liu Yan?
"You aren't at the Tidal Prison, so why did you run to Santorinoya? Also, how did you get there?"
Seeing Geheros, Jacob frowned and began his interrogation.
He had felt it was strange ever since Commander Hafke mentioned it earlier.
However, Liu Yan was present at the time, so he couldn't ask much.
"Chasing down an escapee." Geheros sat down on a chair and replied, neither humble nor arrogant.
"An escapee? The escapee ran all the way to Santorinoya?" Jacob's brows were already twisted into a knot.
Not to mention crossing the sea, how far did they run on land alone?
Geheros shrugged without answering.
Jacob continued to ask with an unhappy expression:
"I'm asking you, who has the capability to run that far?"
"Raven." Geheros replied in a deep voice.
At this, Jacob suddenly stood up.
"What?! You killed Raven?!"
Geheros nodded.
"Do you not know he is a brain-machine interface test subject? Didn't I tell you that?"
"I know, but his brain wasn't right. He went crazy and killed many innocent prisoners; he couldn't be kept." Geheros answered with extreme indifference.
Beep————! The sudden sound of the lie detector left everyone stunned in place.
Geheros looked at the lie detector in surprise, then looked at Jacob with the same surprise.
At this moment, the latter's face was livid.
"Lie detector." The simple three-word reminder made the brows under Geheros's mask furrow even tighter.
He hadn't lied, had he?
Seemingly sensing Geheros's confusion, Demulan leaned into his ear and whispered a reminder: "The version has been upgraded."
The pupils under Geheros's mask gradually dilated. Upgraded? Upgraded to this extent?
"Explain yourself, Warden..." Jacob's voice gradually turned icy.
Geheros rested his elbows on the table, as if in deep thought, then helplessly explained: "He wasn't living humanely in solitary confinement, so I gave him the treatment of a regular prisoner, which gave him the opportunity to go crazy and kill."
Beep————
"Fine."
"I did it on purpose, goddammit. I just wanted to kill him. I didn't like the look of him, and I knew he would cause trouble if he got out. I was entraping him. Can this f***ing thing stop beeping?!"
Geheros finished in one breath, glaring at the new lie detector.
Beside him, Jacob's chest was heaving violently.
"Are you sick, or did he kill your whole family? I told you it was a test subject, a test subject!!!"
"Are you brain-damaged?!"
Bang— As Jacob's voice fell, Liu Yan's figure instantly appeared to the side.
Seeing Liu Yan appear, everyone turned their gaze toward him.
He casually found a chair, sat down, propped his legs on the conference table, and waved his hand at the group.
"Everyone sit, relax a bit."
Jacob and the GTI Supreme Commander exchanged a look. At this moment, the two of them unexpectedly reached a consensus. Relax? How could they relax?
Subsequently, Jacob noticed Geheros sitting in the same posture as Liu Yan. He huffed in annoyance: "You're certainly relaxed enough."
After saying this, Jacob also sat to the side. Seeing this, the GTI Supreme Commander took a seat.
"Um... now that Hafke and the GTI are both here, Asara..." Jacob looked at Liu Yan and asked.
Beside him, Demulan's expression was also not very good. Who else could come for Asara besides Reis?
But they did not want to sit at the same table as Reis.
But what the two didn't expect was that Liu Yan raised his hand and pointed at himself. "Me."
"What?" Both of their brows furrowed simultaneously. Then what the hell is there to talk about?
Compared to Liu Yan negotiating as the Asara side, it seemed that Reis would have been better? If Reis were biased, there would still be room for recourse. If you, Liu Yan, are biased, then what the hell is there to talk about?
"Then Reis..."
"Killed him." Liu Yan's tone was extremely indifferent, but to Jacob and the other, it sounded like a thunderclap.
Hafke could have killed Reis by force, but they were hindered by Reis's beastly methods.
After the room was quiet for a few seconds, Jacob suddenly clapped his hands. Demulan also revealed a faint smile.
"Good, whatever you say goes from now on." Jacob sat back in his chair, completely relaxed.
"Alright, then first..."
Bang—
"Oh, f***!"
Before Liu Yan could finish speaking, a figure suddenly appeared beside him, startling everyone.
"Roy?" Liu Yan turned his head in astonishment, looking at Roy, who had fallen down because he hadn't stood steadily.
Soon, an indescribable odor spread through the room.
"What's that smell?"
"A bit pungent..." Jacob and the others held their noses, unable to stand it.
"Buddy, you threw me into the prison by myself. Those Prison Guards thought you had escaped, and I was the scapegoat. They said they wanted to interrogate me!"
"How the hell could I not run?"
"Where is this? This..." Roy stood up, looked around, and saw many familiar faces.
The moment she saw Roy, Demulan's expression changed! She had been looking for him everywhere!
And Jacob looked at Geheros, suppressing his anger.
"Tidal Prison... it's quite chaotic, isn't it?"
"You'd better give me an explanation later." After saying this, Jacob snorted coldly and stopped looking at Geheros.
"Demulan? What are you looking at? Your eyes are glazed over?" Turning his head, he immediately saw Demulan beside him looking as if her soul had been hooked, and Jacob's expression was once again astonished.
When he followed Demulan's gaze and saw Roy, a thought that made his scalp tingle emerged in his mind.
"Demulan, you..."
"Sigh!" Jacob waved his hand forcefully and stopped looking at Demulan beside him.
It was one thing for Geheros on the left to be acting up. Now Demulan was having a second spring.
Helpless, Jacob and the GTI Supreme Commander exchanged looks. The latter spoke silently: "Um... Roy has a family..."
Jacob was stunned, then tilted his head and looked at the GTI Supreme Commander with an incomprehensible expression: "Why the hell are you saying that to me?"
Seeing this scene, Liu Yan couldn't help but hold his forehead. A proper negotiation had actually turned into this. But this was actually a good thing. At the very least, it was much better than sitting here, looking down on each other, and not saying a word.
"Alright Roy, why don't you go take a shower."
"Go straight, turn right, then left, take the elevator down 3 floors, turn left after getting out of the elevator, and walk to the end; there's a bathroom." Liu Yan raised his hand and pointed in a direction.
Hearing this, Jacob and Demulan's brows were furrowed so tightly they could crush a mosquito. Is this your house? You're so familiar with it?
Roy nodded, stood up, and left the room as if fleeing.
...
Santorinoya.
Kai Silva held the military radio, frowned as he looked at Old Hei beside him, and said with a confused face: "What the hell are they negotiating?"
Old Hei scratched his bald head and shrugged. Beside him, Golden Luna, Mai Xiaowen, Zoya, and the other female Operators were already squatting in front of the military radio, clutching their little fists, their eyes sparkling.
"Demulan!! Roy!!!"
"Family!!!"
"Shower!!!"
"They have a thing!!!"
"Is Roy going to cheat?!! Or with the Hafke Security Director?!"
Hearing the group of female Operators chattering away with gossip, Kai Silva rubbed his temples helplessly.
"Damn..."
"Don't just automatically segment the conversation and imagine things..."
