Chapter 132
Chapter 132 Extra four
Darin tried to comfort Lei, but did not find convincing words after thinking for a long time. He was injected with feeble medicine, his hands were handcuffed, his legs were broken, and he was locked in a dark metal warehouse. It was almost impossible to fly. Not to comfort others, he himself fell into the abyss of despair.
“You were in a coma for a day and a night. They have been walking south and have left the lake area to the plains. There are eight of them, six men, two women, and two hounds. They speak Arabic and should be members of Al Qaeda. “Lei Chen closed his eyes and spoke slowly.
The fear in Darin’s heart grew stronger. He remembered that his father’s company had discovered a new oil field in the Middle East with a large capacity. This may touch the interests of some people, and he is a bargaining chip for interests.
Everyone knows how cruel the members of Al Qaeda are. They made body bombs, slaughtered unarmed civilians, and set off a **** storm all over the world. In their hands, the chance of surviving is very small.
Darin was cold and curled up like a shrimp. He is only 17 years old this year, and he is still a child.
“I’m sorry.” He buried his face in his knees and sobbed softly. “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t believe Emily.”
“It’s not your fault.” Lei Chen felt a little uncomfortable when the vigorous young man suddenly showed such a fragile side. He opened his eyes and promised carefully, “Don’t be afraid, we will be fine. Trust me.”
Even in such a predicament, the teenager still maintained an extraordinary calm. His words were sonorous and powerful, and instantly comforted Darin who was in despair.
“How do you know how many people they have?” His brain started to function normally. Darin realized that something was wrong as soon as he spoke, and asked in astonishment, “Aren’t you in a coma at the time?”
“Well, their medicine is useless to me.” Lei Chen nodded.
“Then when they interrupted your leg…” Darin felt a severe blockage in his throat. The feeling of being interrupted abruptly must be terrible. Not only did Lei endure it, he still didn’t let the terrorists discover the strangeness. At this moment, he really realized the gap between himself and Ray. Maybe in Lei’s eyes, he doesn’t deserve to be his opponent, right?
Darin sniffed, feeling extremely sad, even more sad than being kidnapped.
“My leg was not interrupted, it’s just a bone fracture, and I can walk.” Lei Chen was a little bit dumbfounded. He didn’t know that the little prince of the Burns family was so fragile. He started to cry when he said that he was crying. Two tears came out of his black and gray face, which looked funny and a little cute.
Darin felt embarrassed, buried his face in his knees, and waited for the tears to be held back before Ai Ai asked, “Why did you retire last time? I’ve been inquiring about you.”
“There was a small car accident.” Lei Chen explained briefly.
“Then are you injured?” Darin asked nervously.
“There is no danger.” Lei Chen shook his head and made a silent gesture.
Within a few seconds, the warehouse door opened, and three tall men with face masks walked in. Two of them held Darin’s head with a submachine gun, and the other pulled a black cloth behind him to cover everything possible. Exposing the hiding place, then handed Darin a note, turned on the camera, and commanded in pure English, “Say the words above, do not have any emotional color.”
Darin’s face was ugly, and his temple was sunken by the barrel of the gun.
A large part of the beginning is a tribute to al Qaeda’s ‘great achievements’, and the latter is a demonstration to the Burns family. Darin finished reading intermittently, and the three culprits left with satisfaction. Before leaving, one pointed at the Asian teenager in the corner and asked in Arabic, “What should he do?”
“Let Shan Ying look up his life experience, and kill if it is a civilian.” The leading man said coldly.
The door was locked again, Darin was anxious and afraid. Because he understands Arabic, he knows that Ray is in danger.
“They said they would kill you. Your identity must not be simple. You can live a few more days if you confess to them.” The blond boy’s voice was shaking.
Lei Chen shook his head blankly, “No, confess to them that I will only die faster.” Because his father is Lei Ting, the number one arms dealer in Asia, known as Lei Ting, the king of mercenaries. Several leaders of Al Qaeda died in the hands of his father. If they knew his identity, they would only use the cruelest and bloodiest methods to deal with him.
And his information was set as top secret by Xiaoyu’s father, and these people couldn’t find any clues.
No matter what, they will kill him, so they can’t just wait and die! Lei Chen closed his eyes and slumbered, and his mind turned at high speed.
The sound of a car engine was faintly heard outside. Not long after the iron door was opened, a terrorist wearing a mask threw Darin a hamburger, but he didn’t even look at the Asian teenager. In their eyes, the teenager is already a dead person, and the dead need not waste food.
Darin kicked the hamburger aside, with a look of hatred.
“You haven’t eaten all day and night. Eat it, otherwise you won’t have the strength to escape later.” After the culprit left, Lei Chen opened his eyes and whispered.
Can we really escape? Despite this question, Darin picked up the hamburger, broke it in half and said, “You also eat some.”
The food wrapped in a paper bag was thrown into Lei Chen’s arms, and then he threw it back.
“You eat, I don’t need it.” As he said, he tore off the cufflinks on his shirt, gently crushed the outer shell, and took out a white pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
“What is that?” Darin asked curiously.
“Pills for replenishing energy and relieving pain.” Lei Chen swallowed the pills, leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
“Wow, it’s amazing!” Seeing Lei’s expression look much better, Darin whispered.
“I’m sorry, I only have this one.” Feeling that the sharp pain in his right foot has subsided, and there is a stream of heat flowing in his body, Lei Chen lifted his leg and drew a long thin steel needle from the top of the shoelace and inserted it into the handcuffs. Fiddle with the keyhole.
There was a slight click, and the handcuffs opened. He moved his legs and feet, first lay on the steel plate to listen to the movement outside, then took off his shoes, and took out a pen-like object from the hollow heel.
Darin was dumbfounded, with a bite of hamburger in his mouth and forgot to chew, cheeks bulging like a hamster.
“Eat your things!” Lei Chen ordered in a deep voice, but with a faint smile in his eyes. The blond boy’s expression is very rich, if he doesn’t make trouble unreasonably, it’s actually quite cute.
Darin chewed reflexively, but stared at the Asian teenager with a wrong eye, “What’s that?”
“Infrared cutter.” Lei Chen squatted on the ground, pressed the switch, and the tip of the pen shot a beam of red light, melting the steel plate. But two minutes later, a coin-sized hole appeared in the steel plate. Lei Chen squinted his eyes and looked out. After confirming that no one was there, he continued to cut. Soon, a steel plate measuring one meter long and one meter wide was unloaded silently. On the ground, a grassy breeze poured into the warehouse full of gasoline.
“Are you an agent? You are not afraid that someone is watching outside and discovering your escape plan?” Darin asked stupidly.
“No, I am a mechanic. I have seen it just now. There is no one on this side. I can only see the sky but not the ground. It is probably a cliff, otherwise they will not send someone to guard.” Lei Chen walked to him. Next to him, help him open the handcuffs, and asked with concern, “Can you still go?”
“I can’t move.” Darin tried to stand up, but he tried several times without success. The pain in his feet made him sweat profusely. He pushed the Asian teenager away and urged anxiously, “Go away, run to a safe place and call the police immediately. Someone will come to rescue me.”
“If they find I escaped, the first thing they will do is kill you. So I won’t leave you behind.” Lei Chen touched the juvenile’s soft blond hair and calmly said, “I will go out and have a look soon. Just come back.”
He crawled out from the entrance of the cave and found that the warehouse was built on the edge of the cliff, and the cut-off wall was facing the abyss. Only a half-meter wide aisle was left, which was close to the root of the wall to get around. It is surrounded by plains, and there is still a long distance from the highway. It looks close, but it takes several hours to walk. Running out will inevitably be exposed to the culprit’s sight, not to mention Darin has lost the ability to move and can only rely on him to carry it. There was no place to hide on the plains, and even if they were found, they would not be able to hide from the noses of two hounds.
Four big characters emerged in Lei Chen’s mind-it’s hard to escape with wings.
He left a string of messy footprints on the edge of the cliff, then tore off a length of his sleeve and hung it on a branch growing in the crevice of the rock before turning back to tell Darin the situation.
“Then what shall we do?” Darin asked pitifully, holding Ray’s arm.
“If you can’t escape, you won’t escape.” Lei Chen was still calm, opened a barrel of gasoline, smeared the pungent odor liquid on his body, and then smeared it on Darin’s underwear, patted his head and pointed. The snorkel above his head said, “Let’s go up.”
“Good idea!” Darin’s eyes lit up.
After closing the lid of the gasoline tank, and then propping up the lid of the vent pipe, Lei Chen picked up Darin and let him climb up.
The Asian teenager looked tall and thin, but he was actually very strong. He lifted himself up easily and sent it to a safe place. Darin’s ears were red, lying on the mouth of the pipe, looking at him gratefully with wet eyes.
“Let’s let me go,” Lei Chen whispered, and climbed up with a light leap, quietly restoring the pipe opening to its original appearance.
The two leaned together, waiting for the culprits’ reaction when they discovered they were missing.
After more than 20 minutes, a gangster walked in to check the situation, and found a steel plate with a big hole broken, and screamed furiously. The others immediately led the hound to chase. The smell of gasoline in the warehouse covered the two men’s whereabouts, and the hound was at a loss and had to run wildly in a certain direction. The gangsters followed behind.
After everyone was gone, Lei Chen opened the lid and jumped off the ground and said to Darin, “Come down, I will follow you.”
“Let’s run!” Darin jumped into his arms, so weak that he had to hug his thin waist. This embrace filled with the strong smell of gasoline gave him an unprecedented sense of security.
“There is an endless plain all around us. We hurt our leg. The smell of gasoline on our body is the best tracker as long as it leaves this warehouse. Hounds will soon catch up with us.” Lei Chen shook his head.
“Then what shall we do?” Darin looked at the boy with trust.
“Change to another place and continue hiding.” Lei Chen said lightly, helped him walk to a pile of gasoline cans, and covered them with a shabby canvas. The vents let it open up there, as long as people enter the door. Can be found.
The two hounds ran around and didn’t find any clues. The gangsters felt wrong, and soon returned the same way. They saw the open vent, and hurriedly climbed up to check, there was no human figure on it.
“Damn, fooled! Keep chasing!” The gangsters chased in the opposite direction cursingly.
“We continue to hide on it.” Lei Chen lifted the canvas, hugged Darin over the vent, and then climbed up by himself, the lid still open.
Darin had been fainted by him, and he was silent for a long time before he sighed heartily, “You are so smart! They would never think we would hide here if they were killed.”
Lei Chen rubbed his messy head.
Half an hour later, the gangsters who were tricked like monkeys ran back out of breath and shouted, “shit! Their feet were interrupted, where can they go? Let me find these two bastards, sure Shine their blood!”
The two sitting on top of their heads watched all this silently.
“Boss, they have broken their legs, will they fall under the cliff unsteadily?” one of his men slapped his head and yelled.
“Go and see!” the leader quickly ordered.
The cliff is too high, and there are lush bushes below, and it is impossible to see the situation at all. The eight people found the footprints and cloth left by Lei Chen on the edge of the cliff, and were more certain of their previous guesses, and hurriedly found a bunch of ropes to hang them down. This task is about tens of billions of dollars. It must not leave the slightest loophole. You must see people when you live, and you must see the dead when you die.
More than ten minutes later, the culprit brought two hounds to the bottom of the cliff. Lei Chen patted the blond boy on the head and exhorted, “I’ll be out for a while, and I’ll be back soon. Stay here and don’t move.”
He slipped down the pipe silently, and quickly sneaked behind a terrorist guarding on the edge of the cliff, raised his hand to knock him out, tied him into meat dumplings, and then cut the rope.
Darin was stunned when he chased him out.
“Okay, we can go now.” Lei Chen walked to the SUV parked in front of the warehouse with the car key found from the meat dumplings.
Are we saved? Is it too easy? Darin only remembered when the car drove a long way.
