Chapter 1218: Chapter 728: Hanging by a Thread
"Good shooting skills, let’s see what you’ll do when you run out of bullets!" Indeed, the person hiding below also thought of this point and his voice became smug again.
"Hmph!" Luo Ye snorted coldly, highly focused, and as the last bullet was fired, she threw the gun behind her and immediately had several small knives in her hand. "Clang! Clang! Clang!..." The knives collided with the bullets, blocking them, and fell to the ground.
Zhao Qianqian, who was planning to rush to Luo Ye’s front, let out a long breath and silently chanted Amitabha Buddha in her heart. Next time, she still wants to go on a mission with Lady Luo; it’s too... thrilling!
"Didn’t expect it, you’re quite talented!" The voice now turned furious and Luo Ye felt a surge of joy. If her estimation was correct, the enemy should have very few bullets left.
"Ha! Ha! Ha!..."
The laughter erupted again, and before Luo Ye and Zhao Qianqian could react, the floor beneath them suddenly began to drop sharply...
The moment they hit the ground, a new floorboard immediately sealed above them.
"You three can keep each other company in there for now. When everyone is together, we’ll send you all to Heaven. By the way, when you go, it’ll be very comfortable, and you can also make great contributions to medical science!"
The voice became complacent again.
They were tricked! Luo Ye, frustrated, tugged at her hair. Clearly, the previous frustrated voice of the enemy was deliberately faked.
She had to admit that at that moment of joy, her mind scattered slightly, which is why she didn’t notice the anomaly beneath her feet. Zhao Qianqian, focused entirely on her, naturally couldn’t notice either.
The room was pitch black, and after a while, their eyes adapted and saw a faintly noticeable pile of something in the corner.
"Jing Aixiang?" Luo Ye called softly.
The shadow didn’t respond.
"Jing Aixiang!" Zhao Qianqian raised her voice.
"No need to shout, he’s already undergone experimentation. Even if he wakes up, it won’t be until tomorrow. Don’t worry, you two will enjoy yourselves soon enough.
It’s surprising you are both girls; what a pity, really a pity. If I had known you were girls, I would have sent you to another room so my brothers could have some fun first. Now, it’s too late for that.
Such good girls, and you joined the Special Action Team, even painting your faces all black; it’s just nonsense!"
Apparently, this room was equipped with a sound amplifier so all sounds could be clearly transmitted outside.
Luo Ye signaled Zhao Qianqian and quietly moved toward the corner. Zhao Qianqian followed, "What do we do now?" Using the faint light, they started communicating in sign language.
Luo Ye gestured a few times, meaning "Wait for an opportunity!"
Zhao Qianqian nodded and remained silent. At this point, they could only wait for an opportunity.
Given the current situation, the chances of Guan Hongjun and others rescuing them were very slim, so they had to rely on their observations to choose the right moment.
Based on the smug voice’s implication, they should be preparing to inject some drug into them. The fact that he knew their combat skills and still dared to proceed meant the room had extraordinary devices. Thus, they had to be vigilant now.
If they were truly caught, the hope of escaping would be very slim.
Moreover, the enemy dared to brazenly reveal such confidence in this villa’s setup, meaning they must be on high alert here.
Suddenly, the room started moving!
Then, it spun faster and faster!
Luo Ye maintained her balance and knocked on the wall — pure steel plates.
This meant the room was more like an iron chamber, all components were movable, and the enemy’s goal was to make them dizzy and inject the drugs!
What exactly was the drug for? Zan Wenxing didn’t run a hospital, so there were only two possibilities: trafficking organs or working for someone else.
The first possibility seemed unlikely because if they were trafficking organs, there was no need for drugs, just starve them for a few days until they couldn’t resist, then harvest them.
Lost in thought, the male voice sounded again: "Comfortable, right? Soon, you’ll be even more comfortable, I promise!"
"Hmm..."
The shadow in the corner let out a faint groan, obviously disturbed by the room’s violent shaking.
"Ugh!..." Zhao Qianqian couldn’t help but start throwing up. Luo Ye also felt uncomfortable in her chest, but given her physical condition, making herself dizzy enough to vomit was rather difficult, so she mimicked Zhao Qianqian’s retching sounds...
"Hahaha..."
Sure enough, that smug voice rang again: "Don’t worry, once you’ve emptied your stomach, we can start the experiment. Life should be like this, coming and going without attachment, including an empty stomach."
Bullshit! Mou Ye, who never cursed, couldn’t help but swear inwardly. She’d never seen anyone so twisted, like watching monkey tricks; she was curious to see who would be the monkey in the end.
With a "click!" the room finally stopped spinning; Luo Ye took a deep breath, curled up, and reached out to squeeze Zhao Qianqian’s wrist several times.
There was a noise outside, and Luo Ye and Zhao Qianqian obediently curled on the ground, motionless.
"Bang!" A small window popped open on one side of the wall, and through the corner of their eyes, they noticed the room was much brighter than before; apparently, the enemy was testing if they had vomited unconscious.
About five minutes later, the smug voice rang out first: "Throw!"
Two small iron balls were tossed straight onto Luo Ye and Zhao Qianqian’s heads. Blood seeped from the back of their heads down their necks, but the two remained motionless!
As for the shadow in the corner, he woke briefly but soon passed out again.
"Go in!"
"Yes, boss!"
"Creak!" A small door was pushed open in one side of the wall.
Luo Ye, in her curled position, could clearly see the faces of the newcomers. At the front was a man around thirty years old, with a square face, swollen eyelids, and a gloomy demeanor.
Behind him was a short, thin man in his forties, with a pig kidney face and triangular eyes, but it wasn’t Zan Wenxing!
Based on the previous conversation, it was identifiable that the man behind was the source of the smug voice, and from his expression, it was clear he was the leader.
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
The man in front kicked both Luo Ye and Zhao Qianqian before bowing to the man behind, "Boss, they’re both out cold!"
"Hmm!"
After a moment’s pause, the man stepped forward and slowly took out a syringe from his pocket, handing it to his subordinate, "Inject it!"
"Yes!"
The swollen eyelid man accepted the syringe, looking very excited, and slowly reached towards Luo Ye.
