As the man said, he stuffed a piece of paper into my hand and walked away. I opened the paper and saw that there was an address on it.I didn't know where that address was, so I had to hail a street car and show the address to the driver. The driver frowned: "This is a very far place." I first stuffed a large bill into his hand: "Just drive to this address!" Money is always the most useful thing, and the driver sped away immediately.As the driver said, it was a very far away place, and the car walked for nearly an hour before stopping in front of a small white bungalow.

That small bungalow is very quiet and elegant. In Cairo, it is a very high-end residence. I looked up at the room, the doors and windows of the room were closed tightly, and there seemed to be no one inside.But now that I was at this address, I naturally tried to get into the house and have a look. I got out of the car, went to the door of the house, rang the bell, and almost immediately, the door was opened for me.It was an Egyptian servant who opened the door for me. Once he opened the door, he extended me into the room with a very humble gesture. The furnishings in the house can be said to be very luxurious, but they are too antique, giving people a strange feeling.I sat down on a large and comfortable sofa, and the servant backed away. I waited for a long time, but no one came. I was feeling impatient when suddenly, a voice came from the arm of the sofa where I was sitting. He came out: "Mr. Wei, are you here? Sorry to keep you waiting!"

When the voice came out of nowhere, I couldn't help being surprised, but I immediately realized that it was just something like a microphone, so it wasn't worth my surprise. Moreover, I could tell that it was really Deng Xiaoping. Stone's voice.I said angrily, "Hmph, it really is you." Deng Shi continued: "Of course it is me, Mr. Wei. You are too unwilling to cooperate, so I made this decision. Dr. Hu has been taken to a secret place. You are the one who decides whether he can be freed." This damn Deng Shi!Originally, he wanted to listen to our conditions, but now, I want to listen to his conditions, because Hu Ming is in his hands.

I was silent for a moment before I said, "What conditions?" He said coldly: "That piece of metal." I was silent again.This made me very embarrassed, Hu Ming is my old friend, and now he has fallen into the hands of this unscrupulous Deng Shi, of course I will do everything in my power to save him. Moreover, I am also sure that when I hand over the piece of metal to Deng Shi, Deng Shi will indeed put it back to Hu Minglai. However, the problem is that if Deng Shi gets that piece of metal, then we will have no way to know Deng Shi's secret anymore.I can even believe that after Hu Ming regained his freedom, he learned that his freedom was bought by that piece of metal, and when he knew that he could no longer know Deng Shi's secret, he might immediately break up with me!

After a while, I said, "Is there a second way?" "No, the only way is that piece of metal. If you hand over the thing that is of no use to you, you have to return it to your friend." I tried my best to delay time: "The metal piece is not useless to me. At least, for a period of time, it is worth a considerable amount of money." Deng Shi said with a "hehe" smile, "But, you missed this opportunity for nothing." I tapped my forehead lightly with my fist, and suddenly, I thought, what if I could learn the secret on the metal piece before handing it over to Deng Shi?I need time, so I said: "Please give me time, I want to think about it."

I mean, I need several days to try to understand the secrets on the metal piece, but unexpectedly Deng Shi said: "Yes, I can give you ten minutes to think about it." I couldn't help standing up abruptly: "Ten minutes? Are you kidding me?" Deng Shidao: "I heard that you are a decisive person. If you are willing to agree, you will agree now. If you refuse to agree, then it is useless to give you a year to think about it." I was furious: "Okay, the transaction is unsuccessful, I will go to the police immediately and see what you can end up with." Deng Shi's voice was unusually calm: "I have nothing to end with, so what do I care about? It's a pity that Dr. Hu actually made a friend like you!"

I took a deep breath: "Deng Shi, if you are willing to be honest and tell me the difficulties you are encountering now, then I may be able to help you!" Deng Shi said coldly: "I don't need your pity, I only give you ten minutes to think about it, after ten minutes, if I haven't got your affirmative answer, I will shoot you first without hesitation , and then deal with Hu Ming, you know, killing one person is exactly the same as killing two people." I wanted to say something else, but after Deng Shi finished speaking, he immediately said: "From now on."

I knew from that almost crazy look in his eyes that he might actually do what he said. Ten minutes, I only have ten minutes! I was within range of his pistol, and he could easily shoot me. It seemed that I had no choice but to agree to his "blackmail". But of course I wouldn't say yes to him right away, I just tried to pace, but Deng Shi stopped me."I need to think about it," I protested. He said coldly: "You can stand and think about it." I fixed my eyes on his gun-holding hand, thinking about how to take the gun from his hand.At this moment, something strange happened.

I heard a strange sound coming from Deng Shi's throat, and then there was a crunching sound from his wrist bone, which was like unscrewing a bottle cap that was screwed too tightly. Then, his right hand suddenly left his wrist and rose upwards. His right hand is still holding the pistol, and the hand and the pistol have been rising up, and they stopped when they reached almost the ceiling. When I was in bed, I raised my head and felt my neck bones stiffen, and it was almost difficult to lower my head. Deng Shi has been split into two, one part is his whole body (except the hand), and the other part is his right hand.

And his right hand, although it has left his body, is still under the command of his thoughts, because the muzzle of the huge German army pistol is still aimed at me. I heard Deng Shi's voice: "Nine minutes!" It turned out that only a minute had passed! I slowly lowered my head, and Deng Shizheng was looking at me with a very gloomy expression: "Did you see that? You can't come against me at all. No matter what method you use, as long as you don't agree after ten minutes If I ask you, you will die!" Although Deng Shi's words sounded offensive and disgusting to the extreme, but it also made people have to admit that they were true.

If Deng Shi's hand hadn't been separated from his body, then I might have managed to take the risk and pounce on him, snatching the gun from his hand, and turn defeat into victory—this can be said to be my forte Yes, I have snatched the opponent's gun in various bad situations. But now, what else can I think of?His hand left his body and went up to the ceiling, but the muzzle of the gun was still pointed at me, the fingers were clearly still alive and I couldn't get it off. This made me feel dizzy for a while, and I lost my voice: "This...what the hell is going on?" Deng Shi suddenly laughed strangely: "Don't you understand? I am a fragmented person." I repeated and said: "Separated people? Separated people?" To be honest, I have never heard the name "fragmented people" before. I took a breath, and Deng Shi said, "There are seven minutes left." I looked up at Deng Shi and said, "How did you manage to do this? I believe you are the only one of this kind. This is really...very disgusting." Deng Shi sneered: "No matter what you say, I am a fragmented person you can't deal with, it's been six minutes!" I took a step back, and as I did so, I peeked up and saw the hand move with me.I knew I couldn't get out of the door. Deng Shidao: "Don't think about leaving, it's five minutes." I moved uncomfortably and said nothing more, but my mind was racing with thoughts, while Deng Shi reminded me every minute until the last minute. I heard a "click" above my head, the sound of the pistol's safety being released. I hurriedly said: "Okay, you won." Deng Shi immediately said: "Bring it." I said: "Of course it's not by my side, I'm going to get it." Deng Shi said: "Yes, I will go with you." I knew that Deng Shi would follow me. The reason why I was willing to give in at the last minute was of course not really giving in, but because in the current situation, I had no room to resist. And if the situation changed, for example, he went with me, then I would take advantage of it.Therefore, I am not afraid that he will go with me to get the metal piece. I looked up again, his hand was still in the original position, and I immediately heard Deng Shi's order: "Turn around and lower your head." I could only do as I did, and just as I turned around, suddenly, something seemed to get into my coat, I was startled, and said, "What the hell?" Deng Shi laughed "Jie Jie": "This is my hand, the hand I hold the gun." I exclaimed angrily, "What is this?" Deng Shidao: "As I said, I want to go with you. I hold the gun in my hand and it is always behind your back. You can't touch it. A person can't bend his arm to touch his vest. , this is the most common sense, isn't it?" Deng Shi's words made me feel cold all over. What Deng Shi continued to say made me even more dejected! He added: "I'll give you one hour. You take the metal piece and come to me. One hour, I think is enough. After one hour, I will launch." I hurriedly said, "One hour is definitely not enough, at least two hours." Because Deng Shi's words disrupted my original plan, I seemed a little flustered, and I only asked for two hours! Because I originally thought that after I agreed to him, the situation would get better, but it didn't happen now, and I was still in a situation where there was no room for resistance! Deng Shi said: "Okay, two hours." I wanted to change my words again, but Deng Shi had already said: "Okay, two hours, you better go, tell you, if something touches my hand, or if you take off your coat, I will shoot! " The muzzle of that gun was clinging to my arm, I really couldn't imagine what would happen to my body if the gun was fired.In the present situation, of course, I had no choice but to obey his orders. I walked out, reached the side of the road, and walked along the road in a hurry. After walking quite a distance, a street car passed by. I quickly got into the car and told the driver the name of the hotel. The driver drove the car forward and I couldn't lean my back on the back of the seat because I had a hand behind me and a gun! I could only sit in a strange and unnatural posture, coupled with my ugly face, which made the driver turn his head to look at me frequently.Of course I couldn't explain anything to him. When I arrived at the hotel and stepped into the room, I checked the time, fifty minutes had passed.I have fifty minutes to go back, that is to say, I only have twenty minutes to spare. How can I use these twenty minutes? I wandered around the room. The terrible thing is that the time passed very quickly at that time, and in the blink of an eye, ten minutes had passed. Half of the precious time I could use was gone! I still couldn't think of a way, my hand was bent behind my back, and I couldn't touch Deng Shi's hand. I tried hard, and turned my back to the mirror, and suddenly my heart moved, my hand must not be able to touch Deng Shi However, if I had a gun in my hand, I could bend behind my back and shoot Deng Shi's hand! I immediately took the gun in my hand, turned my back to the mirror, and slowly bent my arms back until the gun in my hand was only an inch away from the bulge on my back. Shooting at such close range, there is absolutely no reason to miss it. The question is, after I shot him, will his hand still have the ability to fire the gun? My heart was beating violently. This is a more dangerous gamble than Russian roulette, but I have to engage in it. Such a gamble! I made up my mind and was about to launch. However, at that moment, I thought of Hu Ming! If I shot this shot, it would definitely kill him. However, if I can catch the injured hand and prevent him from returning to Deng Shi's wrist, then Deng Shi would not dare to do anything to Hu Ming in order to get his hand back. As soon as I thought of this, I quickly jumped away and closed all the doors and windows, so that my injured hand could not escape! Then, with my back to the mirror again, I pulled the trigger. My gun is equipped with a silencer, so when I pull the trigger, it only makes a very slight "click".Then, I closed my eyes and waited. I don't have to wait too long, only a tenth of a second is enough. If Deng Shi's hand is still capable of launching, I will definitely die within a tenth of a second, but if he is no longer able to launch, I will die. His hands can be seen "running away". This fatal one-tenth of a second was unbelievably long. My whole body was cold and my scalp was numb. Then, I heard two sounds of "pat" and "pat", and something fell down. I hastily turned my head away, the horrifying scene in front of me was really hard to stare at. The German army pistol fell to the ground, and a bloody hand was crawling on the ground. My gun shot three of his fingers, but it didn't break one of his fingers, but his fingers were no longer capable of firing the gun, so I stepped on the gun in a hurry. Just then, the hand went up and jumped up. A bloody hand jumped up, the horror is really indescribable! I involuntarily took a step back, the hand was dripping with blood and hit the door, it immediately went down the door to grab the doorknob, but was unable to turn it. At this time, I was still standing blankly, because I was really frightened by the situation in front of me. The hand "slapped" again, fell to the ground, and then moved quickly to the window.I regained my composure before the hand reached the window. I picked up a sofa cushion and threw it forward, just hitting the hand, causing the hand to fall again before it even flew to the glass window. One hand covered it, and after covering that hand, I pressed hard, and that hand was struggling with a terrifying force. I shouted ridiculously: "Don't struggle, don't struggle, don't move, you can't escape, if you stop quickly, I can wrap you up quickly!" I kept saying that, even though I knew my words would never be heard by that hand, and as the hand struggled harder and harder, I was forced to put my knee against it, and after about two minutes , the blood flowing from my hands has seeped out of my coat. At this time, I knew without a doubt that although the hand was far away from Deng Shi's body, all its movements were still under the command of Deng Shi's nervous system. But why is there so much blood?You know, the movement of the commanding hand comes from the activity of brain cells, and because of the weak electric waves emitted, the brain waves are invisible and qualityless. It seems that there are still some "True" can be said, but, can blood transcend space? I pressed that hand with all my strength until the struggle of that hand gradually weakened and finally stopped moving. I slowly raised my knees, and the hand that was covered by my coat remained motionless. I slowly lifted my top again. I see that hand! That hand was pressed in a pool of blood, but it was terribly pale. There was no blood flowing from the wound, and the blood had drained out, so it stopped moving. I stood up, feeling an indescribable disorder in my heart.I thought I would have a chance to catch a living hand, but now, I got a dead hand. Regardless of whether it is a dead hand or a living hand, all of this is confusing and absurd to the point of unimaginable. Fundamentally, adding the adjective "dead" or "alive" to the word "hand" makes this matter impossible. In itself, it is a very funny thing. However, I did encounter such a thing. I had hoped to catch a living hand, but now I got a dead hand. In such a situation, how can I not panic? I stood there blankly, looking at the pale hand, when suddenly there was a sudden knock on the door. The knock on the door came so quickly that I didn't even think about whether I should open the door, so I turned around and opened the door. As soon as the door opened, a man rushed in like a mad bull and knocked me a step away. The man jumped straight to the ground, towards the "dead hand", until he fell to the ground, I didn't realize that he was Deng Shi, and he grabbed the hand with his left hand and rolled on the ground. A very strange sound came out from his throat, that sound was like sawing a person's nerves with a sharp saw, and any person with strong nerves would inevitably get their hair to stand on end. All of this happened so suddenly, it was frightening and dizzying, so I didn't see clearly the movement of Deng Shizai grabbing that hand at all. After Deng Shi stopped rolling, stopped making that terrible sound, and stood up, I saw that his left hand was supporting his right hand, but that right hand was no longer alone, it was connected to his right wrist. connected. Moreover, the color of the right hand is no longer so pale, but has a faint blood color. The two of us stood there dumbfounded. Gradually, I saw blood seeping from the wound on his right hand again, so I said, "Mr. Deng, the wound on your hand needs to be bandaged." Deng Shi let out a roar, and rushed to the German military pistol on the ground, but I was one step ahead of him, stepped on the pistol, and punched him on the chin. Deng Shi's body swayed, and that punch made him fall backwards on his back and fell to the ground.He immediately yelled at me: "Beast, you plagued beast..." His face was livid, he gritted his teeth, and cursed endlessly.I sneered and said: "Deng Shi, you have failed, you don't bow to me, but you still scold me like this, that is unwise." Deng Shi jumped up and howled: "You will regret it, let me tell you, you pushed me too far, you will regret it, you will definitely regret it!" When he said these few words, the light that shot out from his eyes was like the snake letter of a poisonous snake.This convinced me that he was not unreasonable in threatening me like this.
