<h4>Chapter 1772: Chapter 1773: Xiang Yu’s Hallucinated Truth-Telling</h4>
"You’d better treat me nicely, otherwise I’ll report you to my nephew and get you all fired!" Xiang Yu shouted.
"I’ll shut you up," the tall man said,nding a punch to Xiang Yu’s stomach as soon as he was let down.
"Damn it," Xiang Yu spat out some bile.
"I’ll give you onest chance. Tell me who sent you, or don’t me me for what happens next," the tall man warned, pressing a gun to Xiang Yu’s head.
The tall man was the bodyguard of Number One. He didn’t have an official position, but he had a lot of power. Killing Xiang Yu here wouldn’t likely cause any trouble.
"You’d better think carefully. If killing me dys Number One’s ns, you won’t be able to handle it," Xiang Yu said, showing no fear on his face, none of the previous terror.
"I don’t believe you. I’m going to kill you right now." The tall man unlocked the safety on his gun and aimed it at Xiang Yu’s head.
"Stop!" a voice suddenly shouted from outside the prison.
Then a man hurriedly ran in. He was dressed in ck, and his physique was perfect. He moved silently, clearly a skilled individual.
"It’s you? What are you here for?" the tall man asked, looking at the new arrival with confusion.
The neer pulled out a paper and shed it in front of the tall man. "I’m under orders to take him. Hand him over to me."
The neer reached for Xiang Yu.
"Hold on!" the tall man quickly interjected. "Let me see that paper."
The tall man knew this person was Rff’s personal bodyguard, simr in rank to him.
The two protected different people but held equivalent positions, leading to some rivalry between them.
After reviewing it multiple times, the tall man found nothing wrong with the signatures or stamps. He snorted coldly and walked out.
The neer ignored the tall man and escorted Xiang Yu out.
"Hey buddy, which department are you from? You look kind of familiar," Xiang Yu said with a grin.
But the other guy ignored him.
"Don’t be so cold; it’s bad for your health to keep such a straight face. Smile more—smiling keeps you young," Xiang Yu muttered.
The neer hadn’t expected Xiang Yu to be so talkative and quickened his pace.
"I didn’t think I’d be so in demand. Being handsome really is troublesome," Xiang Yumented.
Xiang Yu was ced in a car and driven away in apletely sealed manner. He didn’t even see daylight.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiang Yu was locked in a small dark room. It was pitch ck; he couldn’t see a thing.
He was hanging by his tiptoes, which felt very ufortable.
"Is anyone there? I’m hungry," Xiang Yu shouted.
But it was silent all around; nobody responded. However, from the echoes of his voice, Xiang Yu could tell he was in a house, and it wasn’t veryrge.
"The serum is ready. It’s quite potent, and I’m worried he might just die from it."
"Don’t worry, he seems to have a robust constitution. It should be fine. Let’s begin."
In another building, two people in white coats were discussing this.
One of them held a syringe.
After their exchange, one of them took the syringe and walked towards Xiang Yu.
"I’m hungry, just let me out," Xiang Yu muttered.
At that moment, the room suddenly lit up, the ring white light causing pain in Xiang Yu’s eyes.
"Don’t you bastards have any professional ethics? This is outrageous," Xiang Yu shouted.
Just then, he felt a prick on his neck, followed by the injection of liquid.
Xiang Yu was startled, then quickly took stock of his body.
He felt a bit floaty, as if he was about to transcend.
At that moment, in another building, the two people in white coats were observing Xiang Yu through arge screen, when a few people entered the room.
One of them exuded authority and the aura of someone used to power. It was none other than Rff, the deputy chief of the Little Ba army unit.
"How’s it going?" Rff asked, looking at Xiang Yu hanging on the screen.
"The injection isplete; it will only take two minutes," one of the people in white said.
"Everyone, leave," Rff said calmly.
The others were momentarily stunned, unsure if they’d heard Rff correctly.
"I said leave," Rff repeated impatiently as he saw them still standing there.
The group, including Rff’s bodyguards, exchanged nces before leaving.
With only Rff in the room, he gave a contemptuous smile and picked up the microphone.
"What’s your name?" Rff asked.
Xiang Yu’s eyes were bleary, showing no alertness.
"Xiang Yu," he mumbled quietly.
Seeing the serum working well, Rff nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Is there someone you like?"
"Yes," Xiang Yu said, his gaze vacant, fully under the serum’s influence now.
"Who?" Rff, knowing nobody was around, was suddenly curious about someone else’s personal life.
"A very beautiful girl. I love her dearly." Xiang Yu replied.
"How long do you think you and she canst?" Rff asked, instinctively ncing around.
Though he knew he was alone in the room and only he would hear the answers, he still felt a bit guilty.
"I’ve never been with her. I love her very much," Xiang Yu said, drooling slightly, looking almost foolish.
Seeing Xiang Yu like this, Rff lost interest in further questions. "Why did you approach Ailock?" he asked next.
This was the question Rff really wanted to ask; he had already watched that video and noticed Xiang Yu didn’t act like he wanted to harm Ailock.
Now Xiang Yu looked anguished as if mentally resisting the question.
"Why did you approach Ailock?" Rff yelled, seeing Xiang Yu frown.
He already knew Xiang Yu was the one trying to contact Rumus to take down the Menghu Mercenary Corps.
Xiang Yu was a minor figure and shouldn’t have drawn Rff’s attention.
But Rff worried Xiang Yu had passed some information to Ailock.
"I don’t know; I don’t know why I approached Ailock," Xiang Yu said, eyes shut tight.
"You’re lying; you know exactly why," Rff pressed.
"Ah, my head hurts," Xiang Yu eximed, unable to bear it anymore.
But at that moment, Xiang Yu started toe around...
(Finally started. How many friends are still following along?"
