I Transmigrate as a Single Mother of the Three Antagonists
Chapter 270 - Psychological Tactics
Chapter 270: Psychological Tactics
In the dark and dim basement, Shao An whipped the prison guard with a soft whip filled with thorns.
The prison guard spat out two mouthfuls of blood. He glared at Shao An and shouted hoarsely, “Come at me again! Is that all you’ve got? You’re just scratching an itch for me!”
Shao An raised his hand to tug at the collar of his shirt. He brushed the blood from his cheek and took out the dagger hidden in his military boots.
The prison guard’s chest was full of whip marks. His split flesh looked particularly terrifying.
The enclosed environment was filled with the smell of blood, as the prison guards provoked Shao An.
Just as he was about to attack him again, Qiu Tong appeared at the staircase. She berated Shao An for his actions and reminded him coldly, “Don’t let him manipulate your emotions. He deliberately made you angry.”
Shao An was shocked. He cleaned up the stains on the floor and instructed the guards to turn on all the lights in the room.
Qiu Tong and Jin Yang sat opposite the prison guard. She said softly with a smile in her eyes, “It looks like you are quite smart. You know psychology? To be able to provoke Shao An like this, you are definitely no amateur.”
“The warden said that you passed the test five years ago and have been hiding in S City Prison for many years. Could it be that your mission is just to kill Qiu Rong?”
“Why is he worth exposing your identity? Qiu Rong is just an ordinary researcher, isn’t he?”
Qiu Tong stared at the prison guard, unwilling to let go of any changes in his expression.
The prison guard pressed the tip of his tongue against his teeth and sneered. “No matter how many times you ask me, I will answer the same. The other prisoners gave me money in exchange for more peaceful days, but Qiu Rong just had to go against me. There are so many deaths in the prison. I could make him go away just by using the excuse of a sudden illness. But I didn’t expect him to be able to escape me.”
“You want to interfere in a private feud between a prison guard and an inmate?”
The prison guard laughed wildly. He was stubborn. Shao An narrowed his eyes and walked over, punching a wounded part of his body twice.
Qiu Tong remained calm. She knew very well that the more the prison guard wanted to provoke them, the more it proved that he knew a lot more information. He might have the clues they wanted.
The prison guard could not move in the basement. He wanted to commit suicide, but he couldn’t find a way.
Qiu Tong twirled her pen calmly and nodded in agreement. “Your explanation is flawless.”
“The person behind you has brilliant methods. I have to admit your employment records in the prison were all done through proper channels. I couldn’t find any clues, but are you willing to accept this? Are you willing to be sacrificed as a pawn?”
Qiu Tong walked to the prison guard, while Jin Yang stood beside her, protecting her.
The prison guard’s eyes flickered. He looked away, not daring to meet Qiu Tong’s eyes. Shao An held his chin, forcing him to face her.
Qiu Tong’s eyes were filled with pity as she whispered, “You can clearly perform many more missions. Your skills are not bad. To be able to endure Shao An’s torture and refuse to betray your boss, you are truly loyal.”
“But he treated you like an abandoned dog, arranging for you to go through a dull prison routine everyday for years. You were there just waiting to be used.”
“Your only mission is to kill someone, a prisoner who can’t resist at all. Did your boss ever consider the possibility that you might fail? What are you to him? You’re like a dog that can be abandoned at any time, right?”
The prison guard wanted to use psychological tactics to court death, but Qiu Tong refused to let him succeed. As she spoke, her words pierced his heart. The man in front of her was already on the verge of collapse. Shao An looked at Qiu Tong in admiration as he swallowed silently and stared at Jin Yang guiltily.
Even in such a tense moment, Shao An couldn’t help musing that if Jin Yang and Qiu Tong were to go against each other, who would win?
Sensing his gaze, Jin Yang narrowed his long, narrow eyes and turned around. Shao An cleared his throat and lowered his head.
The prison guard lowered his head weakly. Qiu Tong noticed an unusual scar on his skin!
She tore off the prison guard’s clothes. The prison guard struggled and the chains binding his hands rang out. Jin Yang raised his leg and kicked him in the stomach. Shao An and the guards also restrained him.
Qiu Tong touched the hideous scar with her hand and thought of the tattoo. “You’re from the Vulture Organization?”
The prison guard paused for two seconds before denying it.
However, she could tell from his hesitation that she was right. Jin Yang handed her a handkerchief and she wiped the blood off her fingertips.
A glint flashed across Qiu Tong’s eyes as she tried other methods to confuse the prison guard’s mental state. “I know a few people from the Vulture Organization. They said that only exiled soldiers will get rid of their tattoo. No wonder you were assigned to such a mission.”
The prison guard finally lost control. He spat blood at Qiu Tong. “Bullshit!”
“I’m a top-notch killer! I was highly regarded and that was why I was assigned to go to S City Prison to keep an eye on that old fellow!”
Qiu Tong said happily, “I see.”
The prison guard realized that he had misspoken and wanted to salvage the situation, but it was already too late. He glared at the woman in front of him with hatred..
