December 24th.
In the early hours of the morning, the first thing Xin realized upon waking was that he was in some unfamiliar place.
His entire body was bound, leaving him unable to move.
"You're awake."
Guan Tong's voice rang out.
Xin looked up and saw that guy standing not far in front of him.
Shangyuan Zi was standing beside Guan Tong.
Along with Suzuki, who was glaring at him with eyes full of hatred.
Xin's heart sank as he quickly recalled what had happened before.
At the time, he had been ready to deal with Guan Tong's teleportation attack, but he had no idea what had happened in between. Time itself seemed to have gone wrong, and by the time he reacted, he had already been struck.
"If you're smart, cooperate," Guan Tong said. "Otherwise, you'll only bring suffering upon yourself."
"..."
Without another word, Xin violently bit down on his tongue.
With a wet crunch, he bit his tongue off, blood instantly filling his mouth.
Guan Tong, Shangyuan Zi, and Suzuki were all stunned. None of them had expected him to be so ruthless.
Bang!
Guan Tong could not let Xin die. Before he could harm himself another way, Guan Tong immediately struck and knocked him unconscious again.
"It looks like he won't say anything," Shangyuan Zi said, then turned to Suzuki. "Can your [Profiling] get us any intelligence?"
Suzuki shook her head. "If he won't say anything, my ability won't be much use either."
The two looked at Guan Tong, wondering what he planned to do in this situation.
For someone ruthless enough to bite off his own tongue the moment he woke up, even torture would likely be useless.
"This man does have backbone. He isn't afraid of death. But this isn't the old era anymore,"
