Chapter 52: Underground Interrogation Room
As they entered the room, it looked like a store. On the left shelf, there were some cosmetics and makeup products for women. The plainclothes who was talking to Li Yuanyuan walked to the left side of the shelf, stretched out his hand and pressed something. Suddenly, the shelf slowly split open from the middle, revealing an underground passageway.
Two plainclothesmen grasping Dong Li Mao and Gou Hao's hair still didn't let go, waiting until Li Yuanyuan and the man walked into the passageway before following behind them going downstairs.
Dong Li Mao's scalp was numb with pain, but his mind was clearer than ever. He was thinking of how to deal with these sons of bitches.
Gu Hao also stopped howling, as if he too had become numb with pain like Dong Li Mao.
The two were almost dragged down the stairs like sacks, when a scream suddenly rang out, that kind of heart-piercing scream, once heard, can never be forgotten.
"Damn it! That little devil must be torturing my brother!" The miserable cry made Dong Li Mao's heart tremble for a moment.
The basement is not large and seems to be used only for interrogation and detention, with no one else inside. The lights on the walls flicker dimly.
After walking about ten or twenty meters down the corridor, Dong Li Mao heard a Japanese man's voice, somewhat exasperated and seemingly scolding someone, followed by another blood-curdling scream.
"Reporting to Major, this is the young lady who requested to see you, sir."
Dong Li Mao and Gou Hao were dragged into a sweltering, foul-smelling room by two plainclothes men who had grabbed their hair. Fortunately, they weren't thrown to the ground, but instead made to stand, perhaps so that the little devils could more clearly demonstrate their methods of torture.
There are all kinds of torture instruments in the house, some of which Dong Li Mao has seen in movies and TV shows, while others he hasn't. Seeing these instruments will make people feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts.
There were four people in the room, two of whom were naked men. One was standing next to a basin of burning charcoal, seemingly waiting for the roasted meat on the charcoal to be cooked, as it emitted a scorched smell of human flesh. The other had just poured a bucket of cold water over a naked man who was nailed to a wooden frame with his hands stretched out to both sides, as if he had just been subjected to torture.
The man who was 'hanging' on the wooden frame, his palms were nailed to a cross-shaped wooden frame with iron nails as thick as fingers, his whole body was naked, his head hung low, like Jesus crucified. If you didn't pay special attention, his chest and abdomen were still moving up and down together, it would look like a dead man, there were three burn scars on his chest, one of which was still smoking. The symbol of masculinity had a clip with two red and yellow wires clamped between them, and under his feet was a puddle of feces...
Dong Li Mao saw this scene and thought: "In movies and TV shows, it's not like this. People being tortured are always wearing clothes, at most they're stripped to the waist or something. No matter how realistic the acting is, you can't see scenes where people are stripped naked, let alone scenes where electric clamps are used on that place, causing them to lose control of their bowels... If it were a woman being tortured, what kind of tragic state would she be in..."
Dong Li Mao felt a little nauseous and didn't dare to think further, for him the contrast between art and reality was just too great, he knew that now it wasn't acting in a movie but living cruel facts.
Humans are animals, and when they reveal their cruel beastly side, they are more terrifying than any wild animal!
A man wearing a pair of wooden sandals and loose-fitting gray Japanese clothing walked up, laughing strangely and asked Li Yuanyuan:
"Is this the gift Miss wants to give me?"
Li Yuyuan tried not to look at the man nailed to the wooden frame, bowing her head and answering in a low, obedient voice: "Yes, these two Chinese people are the gifts I want to give to General Yamada."
Yamada looked up and burst out laughing: "I didn't expect Shimada, that stupid pig, to have such a clever and capable subordinate. Which department are you from, miss?"
Li Yuyuan thought that if she said she was a member of the Owl Squad, Yamada would definitely ask about the heavy losses suffered by the Owl Squad, so she replied: "I belong to the Hawk Squad."
Yamada gazed at Li Yuanyuan with a doting expression: "If you're willing, from now on you can follow me and won't have to work so hard running around outside."
"Thanks, Major Yamada, for your kind words, I'm truly grateful, but..."
"Are you worried that Island Tada won't agree? Haha... don't worry about it, I'm Yamada and the person I want, he won't dare not give! It's settled then, you don't have to go back to that stupid pig Island Tada again, stay here and assist me with my work." After saying this, Yamada stretched out his hand and slapped Li Yuyan's butt, then laughed and walked in front of Dong Limao, grabbed his hair, leaned in close, stared into his eyes for a while, and then pointed at the man whose hands were nailed to the wooden frame and was completely naked, and said a few words.
Dong Li Mao quickly pulled open the rope noose as Shan Tian grabbed his hair.
Li Yuanyuan saw Dong Li Mao's bound arm move, knowing he was about to take action. She then gave the signal to do so, and all that could be heard was her loud shout: "Kill!"
The word "kill" had just left her lips when a military knife was already stabbed into the chest of the man standing beside her.
Yamada heard Li Yuanyuan's inexplicable shout, and was stunned for a moment. In this brief moment of distraction, Dong Limao's military knife was pressed against his lower jaw and neck.
The use of a military sword was also a pre-designed plan, with the aim of minimizing noise as much as possible, and only using handguns when absolutely necessary.
Almost at the same time, Gou Hao jumped up, and saw a flash of knife light. He first cut open the neck of the person who had grabbed his hair, then kicked another plainclothes to the ground with one foot, and with a wave of his hand, the military knife was inserted into the throat of the bald-headed man by the charcoal fire. Three deadly killing actions were completed almost at the same time, as fast as lightning.
That slightly farther away light-skinned man seemed to be stunned by what was happening in front of him, and when he came to his senses, he appeared to be preparing to run towards the door. Before he could even shout out loud, Gou Hao had already inserted the red-hot iron that had been burning on the charcoal fire into his back. A pained scream before death, he fell to the ground convulsing a few times, kicked his legs once, and died.
In the blink of an eye, five people in the room were taken care of, leaving only that dog thing Yamada, Li Yuanyuan turned around and closed the iron door.
Gao Hao carefully checked each person lying on the ground to see if they were dead, then ran forward and carefully pulled out the iron nails from the man's hands nailed to the wooden frame with pliers. He hugged him and slowly put him down, gently removing the two clips that had been clamped in place, leaving behind two scars burned by the electric current. Gao Hao silently shed tears, took off his own shirt, and covered the body of the man who had been put down. The man slowly opened his eyes, saw Gao Hao, and exclaimed with joy: "Officer Gao..." before fainting again.
Dong Li Mao's knife tip had already stabbed into Shan Tian's neck and blood was flowing out.
Yamada opened his fearful eyes and muttered a few words with his mouth agape.
"He told you to calm down and talk things over." - Li Yuanyuan translated.
"Sister, ask him, where are the others?" Dong Li Mao said to Li Yuanyuan without turning his head.
Then Li Yuanyuan began to converse with Yamada:
"Where are the other commandos you've captured?"
"You can't get out of this door without me."
"Speak quickly, where are the others? Otherwise I'll kill you right now!"
"Heh heh... Kill me, and you'll never find them..."
Dong Li Mao, despite not understanding what Yamada and Li Yuanyuan were saying, saw from Yamada's sneering face that this hybrid was uncooperative. He withdrew the military knife pressed against Yamada's neck, kicked him in the lower abdomen with one foot, and kicked Yamada to the ground, causing him to roll around in agony, clutching his crotch with both hands.
"Commander Lian, what are you waiting for? Kill this son of a bitch!" Gou Hao said with tears in his eyes: "Look at how they've tortured people!"
"Killing him would be easy, but that would be too cheap for him!" Dong Limao bent down and pulled off Yamada's kimono, and to his surprise, the bastard wasn't wearing anything underneath. His fat belly was exposed, and his shriveled up intestines were almost invisible. Dong Limao grabbed a handful of Yamada's hair and dragged him to the wooden frame like a dog.
Li Yuanyuan didn't know what Dong Li Mao was going to do, but she didn't ask, just stood there and looked.
"Gu Hao, come here! Let this mongrel also taste what it's like to be nailed on the wooden frame!" Dong Li Mao said.
Gu Hao seemed to understand Dong Li Mao's meaning, and stood up with a smile, stretched out his hand to grasp the neck of Yamada, lifted him from the ground, and pressed him against the wooden frame, unable to move.
Dong Li Mao picked up the iron nail that Gu Hao had just pulled out, took an iron hammer, and pried open Shan Tian's left hand, pressing it against the wooden board. Shan Ben was choked by Gu Hao, in a state of semi-suffocation, his hands were too weak to struggle, he stared at his own left hand with wide eyes, looking terrified.
Dong Li Mao raised the iron hammer and struck it on Tie Ding's buttocks, making two loud noises. Tie Ding obediently pierced Shan Tian's left palm with the nail and nailed it to the wooden board. Then he picked up another nail and walked to Shan Tian's right side, similarly nailing his right palm to the board.
Hao and others, Dong Li Mao Ding finished nailing the iron nail, only then did they loosen their hands that were stuck on Yamada's neck. Yamada coughed twice, in pain, wailed loudly.
"What is he shouting?" Dong Li Mao asked Li Yuanyuan.
"He's scolding us as pigs!" said Li Yuanyuan.
