A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Cao Gui sneered and stepped on the wound on his wrist.

"what--!"

"Please, please... don't do this, okay? Ah—it hurts!"

“Theodore Bagwell?” Cao Gui sneered. “A first-degree murderer, bisexual, a pedophile, who has killed several ordinary people, including children, sentenced to life imprisonment with no chance of parole, serving his sentence at Fox River State Penitentiary. Am I correct?”

T-Bag's pupils contracted sharply, and the fear in his heart instantly overwhelmed the pain in his wrist. Who was this person? How did he know?

I've only been out of here for less than 3 hours!

Upon hearing Cao Gui's words, Gwen Lucy and the others immediately showed expressions of disgust:

"He was a damn bastard!"

"FBI!" Cao Gui pulled out his badge. "Sir, you're under arrest!"

Cao Gui pulled out two pairs of handcuffs from behind him, one pair was cuffed to his feet, and the other pair was cuffed to his hands and a small tree trunk.

Next, I found the first aid kit, treated his wrist injury, and stopped the bleeding.

Cao Gui definitely wants to kill this man, but not in front of Gwen and the others.

"Hey buddy, don't tie me up here, it's really uncomfortable," T-Bag said, wriggling a couple of times.

Cao Gui squatted down in front of him, picked up the small knife he had been holding earlier, waved it in front of his eyes, and smiled:

"You look very reluctant. Believe me, I'll insert this thing into your body and then pull your tongue out?"

T-Bag's already pale face turned deathly white. He finally realized that although Cao Gui was young, he was not a novice who could be easily fooled.

"Damn, what do we do with this guy?" Lucy asked, frowning.

"Lock it up for now, and take it to the police station tomorrow morning. What do you think?" Cao Gui asked.

“That’s good, then we won’t need to travel through the night,” Gwen said.

"That's settled then," Cao Gui said. "Let's all go back to our tents and sleep. Gwen, let's go."

Gwen's pretty face instantly turned red. She stomped on Cao Gui's foot angrily, then stormed off with Lucy and Beth.

You jerk, why did you have to say that? Don't I have any dignity?

Cao Gui chuckled, not caring. If Gwen didn't sleep with him, then killing T-Bag wouldn't alert Gwen.

But then Harry said, "Cao Gui, go and rest. I'll keep watch."

Cao Gui frowned, about to retort, but felt it was too blatant, so he thought for a moment and said, "Then you keep watch for the first half of the night, and I'll keep watch for the second half."

"it is good."

Immediately, Cao Gui returned to his tent to sleep.

With Cao Gui gone, the entire camp was left with only Harry staring blankly at the campfire and T-Bag standing to the side, his face ashen.

I'm so unlucky. I just wanted to steal a car and leave, but who knew I'd run into a bunch of freaks armed with submachine guns.

Why bring a submachine gun when camping?

T-Bag felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He had thought that after escaping from prison, he would return as a king, with freedom and money readily available. But who could have imagined...?

and many more!

money?

T-Bag's gaze sharpened, and a flash of inspiration struck him; he seemed to have come up with a way to escape.

When they escaped from prison, Old DB revealed where he hid his money—$500 million—and said he could trick the kid into taking him away, then kill him once he got the money!

Thinking of this, T-Bag's eyes gleamed, he licked his lips, and a wicked smile reappeared.

"Hey buddy, I have something to tell you," T-Bag whispered.

Harry frowned. "What is it?"

“I know of a huge sum of money, $500 million, which is the hijacking money left behind by the hijacker DB Cooper. Let me go, and I'll take you to get it. How about we split it equally?”

Harry was slightly taken aback. Five million? Is that a lot? Why is five million considered a huge sum?

Ha, the capitalist, expressed his incomprehension.

"Hey guys, come out here, there's something new," Harry called out to the tent.

"This guy said he had a huge sum of money and asked me to let him go."

------------

Chapter 42 Are you looking down on me?

“Oh, shit! Shut the hell up!” T-Bag yelled, startled.

He didn't expect that when someone heard about five million, their first reaction wasn't greed, but to tell others.

But it was too late. Cao Gui and the others had just lain down and hadn't even closed their eyes yet.

Hearing Harry's words, the group came out again.

Seeing this, Harry shrugged:

“Sorry to bother you guys, this guy says he has a huge sum of five million dollars, which he claims was left by hijacker DB Cooper. He wants me to take him to get it and then split it equally. I don’t know what to do, so I had to call you guys.”

Cao Gui's eyes gleamed; five million seemed like a fortune he could amass.

Cao Gui was not short of money. His cheap father, Sitwell, also sent him remittances every month, totaling several hundred thousand. Although it wasn't much, it was enough for his daily expenses.

But nobody dislikes having too much money, right?

“Five million?” Beth frowned. “Is that a lot? My mother earns more than that in a month.”

Cao Gui: (?_?)

Damn rich people!

“It must be a lot. My dad only earns a few thousand dollars a month,” Lucy said. “But my mom earns about the same amount a month.”

“Oh, that’s quite a lot.” Harry nodded. “My family has a Rolls-Royce, and I heard it costs about that much.”

Cao Gui: (???)

Evil capitalists!

T-Bag was dumbfounded. Who on earth had he encountered? Not only did they have guns, but they also had money.

"Cao, what do you suggest we do?" Gwen asked.

Upon hearing Gwen's question, Beth, Lucy, and the other two also looked at Cao Gui.

"Let's find out what happened first." Cao Gui frowned. "T-Bag, tell me what happened."

However, T-Bag chuckled, leaned his head back, and stopped talking.

This is his only bargaining chip; how could he easily reveal it to others?

Hey, I'm asking you a question!

Lucy said irritably that, given her somewhat fiery personality, it was already a great favor that she didn't take action when she knew he was a murderer.

"Wow~ Kids, if you want to know the news, you always need to make a deal, right?" T-Bag chuckled.

Cao Gui sneered. "A prisoner dares to be so arrogant? Who gave you the courage, Liang Jingru?"

“Teddy, you seem to have forgotten something.” Cao Gui pulled out a Winchester M1897 and pressed it against Teddy’s crotch:

“We are no longer consulting with you, we are ordering you around.”

“I know your weakness, Teddy. You know Fox River. If you lose him, you’ll be stuck on the table.”

Looking at the enormous muzzle, T-Bag felt a chill run down his spine... cough cough, straight to the back of his head.

"Actually, it's okay if you don't say anything," Ge Wen chuckled.

“Since there were eight of you who escaped from prison, you must be the only one who knew about it. So, you got caught while they kept the 5 million and went on their own.”

"And you, you can only go back to prison and watch them eat, drink, and have fun on TV."

Gwen's words exploited the prisoner's dilemma: everyone else was on the run, but T-Bag was captured alone.

These criminals are extremely selfish individuals; they all share the same principle: they would rather not have it themselves than let others have it.

Sure enough, it's not scarcity that's the problem, but inequality. T-Bag's originally resolute expression began to change. He hated Schofield and John Abruzzi, who had chopped off his hand. He would rather not have it himself than let these people take the money.

“That’s right, this is what will happen to you.” Beth continued, laughing, “And, I’ll grant you what you said on their behalf and let you leave.”

“Hey! Beth!” Harry said, annoyed.

"Guys, that's something left behind by the legendary thief DB Cooper!" Beth exclaimed excitedly.

"How about we go treasure hunting?"

"Just think about it, when school starts, we can tell everyone that we found the hijacking debt left by DB Cooper. How many people will envy us then?"

"This is something even so many FBI agents couldn't do!"

Upon hearing this, the group was taken aback; it seemed to make some sense.

Thinking of the envious and jealous looks from their classmates, they instantly became smug.

In school, everyone comes from similar backgrounds, so no one can outdo anyone else. But if someone finds this treasure, they'll become a celebrity in school!

In comparison, T-Bag, that old monster, seems less important now.

“Beth’s right, you’re not that important,” Harry laughed. “Let’s make a deal, buddy.”

T-Bag looked at the five men with suspicion, somewhat unable to believe it. The situation had changed too quickly; just moments ago they were going to kill him, and now they were going to let him go. This made him suspicious.

But it was impossible not to believe him; the five of them had reached an agreement without even whispering in his presence, so there was no possibility that they were lying to him.

After hesitating for a moment, T-Bag told the story. It was the only hope he could see; he didn't want to go back to Fox River.

So, the story started with Dead Dog Fly, then moved on to Old DB, and then to his daughter. Old DB begged the escaped men to give his daughter a portion of the money, and even mentioned the locations where the money was hidden: Utah, Tuller, and the cellar at Double K Farm.

T-Bag didn't hide any information. It had nothing to do with trust or character. As Gwen said, he would rather the money be taken by Cao Gui and his gang than by Si Gou Fei and his gang.

Moreover, what he most wanted to see was Cao Gui and his group capturing Si Goufei and his group as well.

“I have told you everything, and I hope you will keep your promise,” T-Bag said cautiously. He was smart; he knew how to protect himself when the situation was not favorable.

Cao Gui patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Theodore, think about it carefully again, is there anything you've missed or wrong?"
