Chapter 61 Failure
Changmao cursed, scratched his long hair anxiously, grabbed the piece of paper, compared it again, and finally showed a look of loss and despair on his face. Zhao Bankuo understood Changmao's feelings, and obviously he
I am very confident in my memory of this number, so I don’t believe this fact at all. However, human memory is often unreliable.
After correcting it a few more times, Changmao's face began to turn gloomy. This was a huge mistake. The problem was that he couldn't understand why it was wrong, and it was obviously his own problem. He didn't even have a place to get angry. But he still didn't want to compromise, and again
Asked: "Is the last button somewhere else?"
"It's basically impossible, and there are obviously no other knobs. I think the character of this box is complicated enough, and there is no need to play tricks like that." Zhao Bankuo took a deep breath of cigarette, "It must be your problem.
, think about it carefully."
Changmao took a sip, looked at the note, and recalled it hard, his expression became distorted, but not long after, his expression suddenly changed, and he heard him let out a sigh, and immediately said: "No, it's not me.
The problem."
Zhao Bankuo got angry: "What's there to argue about? Are you a fucking man?"
Changmao pulled the cigarette out of Zhao Bankuo's mouth and threw it to the ground. He threw the note to him and said, "See for yourself, the passwords of the other two people are exactly the same as mine. They are also ten digits."
number!"
Zhao Bankuo frowned and wondered how it was possible. He took it and counted it carefully. Suddenly a chill came up from his back. It was his turn not to believe it and he immediately looked at it carefully again.
Sure enough, the next two sets of passwords were exactly the same as the long-haired ones.
Zhao Bankuo looked at the strange box and then at the code paper, wondering what was going on? Why were all three people having problems with their memories? Then, an extremely ominous thought came to him.
Zhao Bankuo turned around and gestured to Liao Guoren, telling them that something was going on here. Liao Guoren in the distance didn't know what was going on, so he stood up in confusion and shouted, "What's going on?"
After Zhao Bankuo explained the situation, several people came back, and they all couldn't believe that something would go wrong in this regard.
"Why is this happening?" The military doctor clicked his tongue, "Did you three remember everything wrong?"
"This probability is too small. The passwords written by three people have exactly the same digits, which means that the password must be correct." Liao Guoren looked at the box doubtfully, "Could it be that we misunderstood the password?
Isn’t that how it’s used?”
"That's not how it's used, then how can it be used? Break it apart and use it?" Wang Simao couldn't help himself. He looked around, but no one answered his words.
The note was passed around among several people, and the box was turned over and over. However, the contradiction was too obvious. No matter how much we made the nine knobs, there was no way there would be one more. After a while, everyone
All desperate.
Liao Guoren obviously has no experience in the emergence of this kind of problem. He has no experience with Zhao
Banjiu said: "Banjiu, please don't worry about the last number, just enter it and see what happens."
Zhao Bankuo shook his head. He couldn't express the thoughts piled up in his heart. He looked at everyone and didn't understand why these people who were smarter than him didn't think of the most reasonable explanation, and he really couldn't speak if he was asked to say it.
.
Liao Guoren saw that he was silent and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Bankuo thought for a while and sighed before saying: "Captain, are we discussing this matter under a wrong premise?"
"How to say?"
"Our password is ten digits. The password entry slot on the box only has nine digits. What are the password usage and hidden buttons? Don't you think these ideas are far-fetched? Think about it, if it weren't here,
In our hometown, in ordinary life or at other times, what would be our first thought when we encounter this kind of situation?" Zhao Bankuo looked at Liao Guoren. Judging from the other person's face, he still didn't seem to react.
.
Zhao Bankuo looked at the strange box, was silent for a moment, and continued: "The most reasonable explanation is that these three sets of passwords are not used to open this box at all."
The military doctor immediately laughed: "What a joke, if I don't open this box, which box should I open?"
Zhao Bankuo continued, but he was already very desperate: "I don't know, damn, maybe we made a mistake from the beginning. These three sets of passwords are used for other things. That thing,
It's still in this jungle - and we're not looking for it at all, we're looking for the wrong thing! We've been running for so long, but it's all in vain!"
The military doctor smiled even more horrified and said: "Impossible, impossible, you kid is talking nonsense, how could you be wrong?"
No one paid attention to her, and everyone fell silent. Wang Simao's face was the palest. He obviously immediately understood what Zhao Bankuo meant and accepted this statement.
Changmao lit a cigarette, looked at the iron box, and remained silent. Liao Guoren kept looking at him, motionless.
Zhao Bankuo didn't want to see those faces. He leaned against the tree, too depressed to say anything. From the beginning to this strange jungle, the scenes along the way flashed before him one by one, the death of Daniel, the death of Xiao Xiao.
Knife's capture, Guska's death, those overwhelming greens, the daily boring marching, walking, vines, cutting vines, that suffocating sense of depression, he survived day by day, and now
, all of this suddenly became extremely ridiculous.
Fighting and death were all things he took for granted. He believed in simple principles and persisted, never doubting whether his persistence was valuable, but now, this was simply ridiculous.
What to do next? Do they still have to move on and complete the mission?
Where to move forward? What task to accomplish?
No, he was really tired. He didn't want to do anything, not even move. Even if Liao Guoren dragged him up and wanted to shoot him
He, he didn't want to move. When he thought of the jungle, marching, searching, and the Japanese, he felt an uncontrollable tiredness and nausea rushing towards his face.
Seeing that none of them had any reaction, the military doctor shook his head and said: "It can't be wrong. We came all the way and there were no problems. How could it be wrong?" Then he picked up the piece of paper and said, "I'll get it, it must be this one."
Box."
As he said that, he squatted down next to the box, took a sip from Changmao, then walked over and grabbed him, squeezed his hand hard and pulled out the note. The military doctor screamed in pain and cursed: "What are you doing!
What are you doing?" Then he saw Changmao throwing the note into the bonfire.
The military doctor wailed and looked at the burning note.
Changmao let go, picked up the gun and walked towards Ruan Ling. Suddenly, Ruan Ling's face turned pale. Looking at Changmao, he couldn't help but shrink back and said coldly: "This is none of my business."
"It's none of my business either." Changmao looked at her, "We all have bad luck."
Changmao raised the gun and cocked the bolt. Ruan Lingtong looked at Zhao Bankuo, Liao Guoren, and the military doctor in horror, and shouted: "No!"
Zhao Bankuo raised his head and thought to himself that Changmao had lost his mind and gone crazy. It really was none of the woman's business. He shouted with complicated emotions: "Changmao, what are you doing?"
"She has no value anymore. Keeping her will only get in the way. There is no reason to let her live anymore." Changmao said emotionlessly, pointing the muzzle of the gun at Ruan Ling's head, "I want to go back, I don't want to stay here any longer.
If we kill her and no one knows the password, then our mission will be considered a failure. If we fail, we can go back to jail or be shot. I want to go back." As he said, he gently said to Ruan Ling, "Sister, it's a pity.
You made a wrong calculation. If you didn't know the password, you might still be alive. Obey me, close your eyes, just for a moment."
Ruan Ling opened her eyes wide and looked at him in horror. She finally collapsed and moved back desperately, shouting: "Help! Help!"
The military doctor also reacted, picked up the gun and walked over, cursing: "You idiot, put the gun down." Zhao Bankuo also stood up. Although he understood Changmao's thoughts, he had spent so much time with Ruan Ling day and night.
He didn't want to kill her so hastily.
Changmao ignored them at all and continued to whisper to Ruan Ling: "Close your eyes." He kept repeating it. Before he could say it for the third time, Liao Guoren on the side shouted: "Why, she is looking at you, you
Can’t you make a move?”
Changmao immediately smiled. Liao Guoren stood up and said to them: "Stop making trouble, I understand what you mean." He sighed, "I declare that the mission has failed. We can go home."
"But before we go home, we cannot kill this woman. We have to exchange her for a knife." Liao Guoren showed no expression. "Those who are willing to stay can rest where they are and set off tomorrow morning. Those who are not willing can leave the team now."
