Chapter 106 Luo Ying and Luo Li's Submission!
"Swish! Swish!"
With two soft snaps, the ropes binding the sisters' wrists broke.
He sheathed the dagger, turned and walked towards the door, leaving behind only his last words.
"I'll give you one incense stick's time to consider!"
After saying that, he opened the door and left the house.
"Squeak...click."
The door was gently closed.
In the room, only the two sisters remained, their wrists now free, yet their hearts filled with turbulent emotions.
escape?
To stay or to leave?
One is a vague, almost impossible freedom.
The other option is to take a gamble!
How should I choose?
silence.
Dead silence.
Only when the footsteps outside the door faded away did Luo Ying, the older sister, suddenly jump up from the bed!
Instead of rubbing her numb wrist, she rushed to the door and peered outside.
The corridor was deserted.
He really is gone.
But Luo Ying remained vigilant.
She turned around abruptly, her gaze quickly sweeping across the corners, the ceiling, under the bed, and every possible hiding place in the room.
Only after confirming that the room was absolutely safe did her tense body finally relax.
next second.
She turned around abruptly and hugged her trembling younger sister tightly in her arms!
"Xiao Li!"
"Wow--"
The younger sister, Luo Li, could no longer suppress her fear and burst into tears.
"Sis... what do we do... waaaaah... we're doomed..."
"He knows everything! He's a devil! We can't escape!"
"We'll be killed... and Mom and Dad will be implicated too... sob sob..."
Luo Li's body trembled violently, her voice filled with despair.
Luo Ying hugged her tightly and gently patted her back.
His eyes were fixed on the closed door, his mind racing.
escape?
How do I escape?
Even if they manage to escape by sheer luck, where can they escape to?
Under heaven, they will all become the targets of Feng Jing and Zhang Fan's pursuit!
That's a dead end!
Not escape?
Should we continue to follow Feng Jing?
A cold glint flashed in Luo Ying's eyes.
She knew better than anyone that in Feng Jing's eyes, they were nothing more than two tools to be sacrificed at any time.
Once they lose their usefulness or are discarded by Feng Jing, their fate and that of their families will only be worse!
That's also a dead end!
Both paths are dead ends!
but!
And this man named Zhang Fan... he gave them a third way.
a long time.
Luo Ying made up her mind.
All her struggles and calculations ultimately converged into one very simple thought—
At the very least, Xiao Li must survive!
Having figured this out, she looked at her younger sister in her arms and said, word by word, with absolute clarity:
"Xiao Li, we can't follow Feng Jing anymore."
"If we follow him, we'll all be thrown away like trash sooner or later!"
"He doesn't care whether we live or die, let alone whether Mom and Dad live or die."
"Following this man named Zhang Fan... is our only way to survive."
Luo Li in his arms stopped crying!
She was startled, raised her tear-streaked face, and stared blankly at her sister.
She saw a resolve she had never seen before in her sister's eyes.
But I didn't think much of it!
After a few seconds of silence, Luo Li wiped away her tears and nodded heavily.
"Sis, I'll listen to you!"
……
at the same time.
749 Bureau Headquarters, inside the command hall.
Everyone held their breath; the entire hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the central main screen.
The sisters' conversation was clearly audible to everyone through the loudspeaker.
"...Following Zhang Fan...is our only way to survive."
When the last sentence, "Sister, I'll listen to you!" was uttered.
The loudspeakers fell silent.
Zhu Feng's gaze instantly fell on the old man beside him.
"Professor Li!"
The chief psychological profiler known as Professor Li, along with his entire team of experts.
I started working almost the instant the recording ended!
Countless data streams are being uploaded: intonation analysis, keyword extraction, micro-expression psychological models...
Finally, a final simulation was conducted.
Less than thirty seconds!
On the main screen, a line of bright red text was projected:
[Targets: Luo Ying, Luo Li; Current probability of submission: 59%]
Upon seeing this number, Zhu Feng immediately dialed Zhang Fan's number.
"Comrade Zhang Fan, we have received the recording."
"Based on a comprehensive assessment by the expert panel and big data models!"
"The probability that the two of them will submit to you at this moment is... 59%."
On the other end of the phone, Zhang Fan frowned slightly.
"Why is it so low?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone in the command hall was taken aback.
59% is already more than half!
This is already a pretty good start in the defection effort!
Zhu Feng immediately turned on the speakerphone and gestured to Professor Li beside him.
Professor Li cleared his throat and explained in a deep voice into the phone:
"Comrade Zhang Fan, you may have misunderstood the meaning of this number."
"Based on reverse engineering using all the data we have, we can be certain—"
"At no point in time did their 'loyalty' or 'probability of submission' to Feng Jing exceed 40%!"
These words shocked everyone present!
Zhang Fan on the other end of the phone also breathed a sigh of relief.
That's it!
59%, compared to Feng Jing's, which has never exceeded 40%, the key difference is the overwhelming trust!
this means.
In less than a day, he gained more trust than Feng Jing had in the previous few years combined!
Just then.
Out of the corner of Zhang Fan's eye, he caught sight of two figures slowly walking out of the courtyard.
They've arrived.
Zhang Fan decisively hung up the phone and put it back in his pocket.
He stood leisurely in the courtyard, watching the two sisters walk towards him step by step.
Their faces were still streaked with tears, and their eyes held a complex mix of fear and humiliation.
But more than anything, it was a resolute determination.
The two walked up to Zhang Fan and stopped.
The older sister, Luo Ying, took a deep breath and whispered.
"We've made up our minds."
Her younger sister, Luo Li, followed closely behind, also lowering her head, her voice trembling slightly.
"We...are willing to follow you."
Zhang Fan looked at them, a satisfied smile on his face.
He didn't say anything immediately, but turned around.
He picked up a teapot from the stone table in the courtyard, poured two cups of warm water, and handed them over.
"Have a sip of water first, to moisten your throat."
The two sisters exchanged a glance, both seeing hesitation in each other's eyes.
They took the teacups, but didn't drink them immediately, clearly worried that there might be something fishy in the water.
Zhang Fan saw through their thoughts but didn't point them out.
He simply picked up the teapot, took a sip from the spout, and then said calmly:
"If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't need to use such a complicated method."
These words eased the sisters' tense nerves slightly.
They then began to sip their tea slowly, swallowing it along with their tears, experiencing a complex mix of emotions.
"Please sit down."
Zhang Fan sat down on the stone bench and pointed to the opposite side.
