"Alright, Boss," the two bodyguards replied at the same time without taking it seriously.

They had been interrogating this man for days, and he was still reluctant to open his mouth. Would he talk with just a pinch from Vivian? It was nearly impossible.

Ray looked at Luke and assumed that he had something to ask the man. Then, he said, "Perhaps we should wait outside?"

"There's no need." Luke took a step forward and looked at the man with his head down. The man must be fatigued after being questioned for the past few days. He should be in a state of mental and physical exhaustion.

However, he refused to say anything even though he was exhausted. It seemed like the Island of Despair must have something on him. Otherwise, he would not have asked them to kill him.

There might be another reason behind this.

He failed his mission, and there was no way he could stay alive even if he told them everything. This was what Gale and Rain had told him before. Before they left the Island of Despair to carry out their missions, they were forced to drink some kind of drug. They would have to take the antidote regularly to stay alive.

If he told them everything now, he would be left to die on the streets if he did not return to the Island of Despair. Likewise, If he returned to the Island of Despair, the mastermind of the organization would not spare his life. He would end up losing his life either way. His life was in the mastermind of the Island of Despair, and he had no choice.

"I'd like to ask you one question," Luke spoke slowly.

The man lifted his head. His eyes were red as he had been unable to get any rest for such a long time. His eyes were bloodshot like the eyes of zombies in those movies. It was terrifying to see.

"Just kill me,” the man laboriously spat out the words.

Luke ignored him and asked, "Is the stronghold of the Island of Despair in Russia?"

The man shuddered for a moment and repeated the words he said, "Just kill me."

"You shuddered." Luke reminded him that he had been exposed.

The man widened his eyes and looked at Luke with an undisguised murderous gaze. "I don't know what you're talking about!"

"The stronghold of the Island of Despair is in Russia," Luke said affirmatively. He turned around and said to Ray, "That's all."
