Thinking about this, Wang Bai felt a little worried.

In the original work, Toki Yu was not taken away by Sato and his group at all. In fact, based on Wang Bai's understanding of Sato...

This operation was more like a training exercise, a plan devised by Sato to get Tanaka to choose sides and familiarize himself with his own abilities.

Now it's just that there's one more "him".

However, things have changed now, and they now have a very high-ranking person in their hands, Toki Yu.

From Sato's perspective, the other party should be a very valuable person.

But from Wang Bai's perspective, who knows the plot development, Toki Yu is just someone who is openly pushed out to take the blame.

It has value, but not much.

If the loss exceeds a certain level, it can be directly abandoned by the higher-ups.

There's no way around it; in the eyes of the higher-ups, demi-humans are simply a huge gold mine with extremely weak defenses.

Putting aside everything else, just consider that two kidneys are removed every minute. At 30 yuan per kidney, that adds up to 43200 million yuan a day.

This supply is so large that some wealthy individuals could even get a kidney transplant every day to maintain their health.

Besides, a person doesn't only have one kidney, right?

Faced with enormous profits, Wang Bai saw no way for the demi-humans to survive; at most, it was a matter of whether they lived a dignified or dishonorable life.

Perhaps, having experienced various wars, Sato's current personality is partly due to this factor.

Inside the basement.

Yu Toki was tied to a chair, with various hardware tools placed around her.

These tools were collected by Tanaka from all over the place. In his eyes, the torment he suffered in the research institute was all inflicted by the man in front of him.

Neither Sato nor Wang Bai objected to this point.

Sato probably just wanted to have some fun watching the interrogation, while Wang Bai planned to secretly play the good cop later to gain favor with the characters.

Even though I was the one who kidnapped you, I released you afterwards, and you should thank me. That's the art of whitewashing.

Anyway, Toki Yu will definitely join the Ajin's side in the end, so it can't be considered a betrayal. It's just a phased effort to unite with all the comrades who can be united.

Yu Toki, who was strapped to the chair, had actually been awake for a while. Due to his training, he was actually more resistant to blows than the average person.

He now knew he had fallen into the hands of the demi-humans. He knew all too well what the government had done to the demi-humans, and he could also guess what would happen next.

For a normal person, committing suicide now might be a way out.

However, Toki Yu has a fiancée lying in a hospital bed. He lives for his fiancée, so even if hell is what lies ahead, he will persevere.

The longer he persists, the longer his fiancée's medical care will last.

Besides, Toki Yu himself is not an inflexible person; his relationship with the corrupt upper echelons of the government is merely one of exchanging interests.

He took the blame for his superiors, and they paid for his medicine.

"What do you want to know?"

Before Tanaka could speak, Toki Yu asked directly.

Tanaka had no intention of asking any questions; he only had one thing on his mind: revenge.

He picked up a hammer from a shelf and was about to smash it at Toki Yu.

But the moment it fell, it was caught by a hand.

Sato smiled at Tanaka: "Don't be in such a hurry. We have a more important plan, and it would be even better if we could get this gentleman's cooperation."

"Besides, even if you act impulsively now and take revenge, it's very likely that the people you want to get revenge on have already fled."

In reality, Sato's words had many flaws, but Tanaka's current mental state could hardly be described as rational.

Sato was able to stop Tanaka's actions entirely due to the difference in combat skills and initiative.

Sato's words conveyed two meanings: "To take revenge on one person now" or "To take revenge on all of them in the future"?

For an Avenger, there is absolutely only one option.

Sure enough, Tanaka slammed the hammer aside and turned to leave the basement.

Sato watched Tanaka's actions with satisfaction; the other man was now completely under his control and commands.

It will be a very useful piece in the future.

He turned his head and looked at Toki Yu in the chair: "I think I have just helped you save your life, Mr. Toki. I hope to show the value of your life. My methods are not much gentler than Mr. Tanaka's."

Tosaki nodded, indicating that Sato could ask questions at any time.

"It's simple. I want to know where you're imprisoning the fourth demi-human, Kei Nagai?"

Sato got straight to the point, like a speedrunner, without any hesitation.

Toki Yu hadn't expected the other party to be so direct. Having dealt with many politicians, he instinctively wanted to secure greater benefits for himself: "I can say that, but..."

Before he could finish speaking, a heavy fist struck him directly in the abdomen.

Caught off guard, Toki Yu spat out a mouthful of acidic liquid.

Sato narrowed his eyes, a faint smile on his face, and asked, enunciating each word clearly:

"I'll ask one more time, where is Kei Nagai?"

The murderous aura honed from the near-death experiences on the battlefield was so intense that even an elite like Toki Yu couldn't withstand it, and he subconsciously shuddered.

At this moment, Toki Yu finally realized that the person in front of him was completely different from the people he had met before.

Even after seeing the information, there was no sense of extreme danger compared to encountering the real person.

This guy is a real outlaw.

Left with no other choice, Toki Yu had to reveal his location to Sato.

Sato nodded, glanced at Wang Bai beside him, and then turned and left.

Wang Bai knew that the other party meant to get rid of Toki Yu. If Tanaka were here, he would probably kill Toki Yu without hesitation.

If people find out that he let Tosaki Yu go, Tanaka will probably take his anger out on him and might even start a fight.

Wait a moment.

Thinking about this, Wang Bai had some doubts. Could it be that Sato did this on purpose?

Is this also part of Sato's probing?

Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. The more I think about things involving information asymmetry, the more frustrated I get.

Wang Bai looked at Hu Qiyou, who looked at him with a resentful and desperate expression.

Yu Toki wasn't stupid; Sato's lack of reaction just now gave him a bad feeling.

"If you let me go, I can help you build a new identity that allows you to live openly in society, as long as you don't expose yourself..."

Wang Bai nodded: "Okay!"

Yu Tosaki didn't react immediately and continued, "I know that's not enough. I have nearly 800 million yen on hand, which is more than enough... Wait, what did you say?"
