Volume 9: Molten Mine Chapter 439 Threat
"Then use the person he cares about most as a bargaining chip to threaten him." Ke Lan said, "If you want to be a villain, you have to be a bad enough one."
"His wife and children? They must be protected by someone. How can you threaten them? He must know this himself, so he dares to be so tough." said the Hound.
"But the people who protect his wife and children can't be sure whether he has leaked the information, right?" Ke Lan said, and turned on the external loudspeaker again.
"Dr. Park Sang-woo, have you ever thought that those people's promise to protect your wife and children was just your wishful thinking?"
"No, that would be an easy thing for them to do. I don't think they would lie to me." Park Sang-woo closed his eyes and shook his head - his recovery speed was very fast, and he could even make a slight shake of his head.
"But the problem is, how are you going to prove that you didn't leak these secrets to us? The name 'Aguna Kator' alone is enough to make you suspected of leaking secrets, not to mention that I also have some other things... In this case, your persistence is really meaningless."
"Haha." Park Sangyou suddenly laughed, "They won't believe what you say. You can never imagine how terrifying their power is... You may be able to fool the people in the Security Bureau, but you can never fool them."
He paused, then added: "Besides, with your level, it is impossible for you to contact them."
"Really?" Ke Lan smiled and said to Ivan, "Ivan, turn his head around so that this guy's face is facing the car window."
Ivan moved the cushion under Park Sang-woo's head slightly, allowing Park Sang-woo to see the scene outside the car window, and the latter opened his eyes with a hint of curiosity.
Perhaps because the external loudspeaker caused some distortion in the sound, Park Sang-woo originally thought that the person interrogating him would be an officer over 30 years old, but now, the person in front of him was really too young.
But for him, this is a good thing. Being young means inexperience and arrogance... Perhaps this young commander was lucky enough to find some clues in the mining area, but these clues could definitely not become bargaining chips for him to negotiate with that organization. In Park Sang-woo's opinion, anyone who wanted to fight against that organization had almost disappeared from this world.
This commander should be dealt with soon after returning to the Ark... along with his subordinates, Park Sang-woo thought.
But just as he was thinking this, Ke Lan spoke up: "I know who they are, because I am one of them."
"What did you say?" Park Sangyou was stunned and looked at Ke Lan in confusion.
Ke Lan turned her back to Aya and mouthed to Park Sangyou, "No-death-crew-members."
Park Sang-woo's pupils suddenly contracted, and the next second, an expression of disbelief and fear appeared on his face. This time, his reaction was not as intense as when he heard the word "Yagunactor" just now - because he was completely stunned, and his brain was blank.
“You, you said…”
"Shh." Ke Lan smiled and made a silent gesture, "Don't say it, this is...top secret ."
"You said you are... This is impossible... This is impossible!" Park Sangyou began to scream hysterically. Even the Hound and Aya on the side looked at Ke Lan in confusion, wondering what Ke Lan had just said to him that made him become like this.
"Dr. Park Sang-woo, maybe with my ability, I can't execute them directly, but if I want to forge some evidence, it's not difficult to do so. We can even play an interesting little game. Have you heard of the 'prisoner's dilemma'?"
"What do you mean?" Park Sangyou opened his eyes wide, full of fear and confusion.
The so-called "prisoner's dilemma" is a classic example in game theory. The protagonists of the story are two criminal suspects who jointly planned a case and were both caught by the police.
They were locked in two completely isolated cells with no way of communicating. The police in charge of the case knew that they were the criminals, but they did not have enough evidence to convict them. So the police told them: If both refused to plead guilty, they would both face a year in prison; if both chose to plead guilty, they would both be sentenced to eight years; however, if one chose to plead guilty and the other refused to confess, the one who pleaded guilty would be released immediately on the grounds of "making meritorious service while serving his sentence", and the remaining one who refused to plead guilty would be sentenced to ten years in prison .
The best outcome for the two suspects would be for them to both plead not guilty and be imprisoned for a year. But in fact, in many similar cases, both "prisoners" have chosen to point fingers at each other, and in the end, both have been sentenced to "eight years in prison"...
"I think that as your monitor, your nominal 'wife', Ms. , must also know these secrets, right? She must also know that she and the child in her belly are the bargaining chips used by 'that organization' to blackmail you. So if I tell her that you have leaked the secrets, as the price, she and her child will be executed, but if she is willing to abort the child, she can return to work at the Security Bureau and start a new life, do you think she will agree?"
Park Sang-woo was stunned.
"Do you think she will believe that you can sacrifice yourself for her and the child, and won't reveal the secret until your death? If you are a couple who truly love each other, I think there might still be a little trust, but the problem is... her marriage to you is just a special mission for her." Ke Lan continued to exaggerate, "The most taboo thing for agents of the Security Bureau is to develop feelings for the target of the mission..."
"You...you..." Park Sangyou stared at Ke Lan, but couldn't utter a complete sentence.
"I know that what I did was excessive and shameless... But you have to know that if I can't get that information from you, then the people under my command will have to continue to go deeper into the mining area... They may all die, you will die, and I will die too... In this case, in order to stay alive, I can only do everything I can." Ke Lan said word by word, "Dr. Park Sangyou, please don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame it on the instinctive desire to survive."
