Chapter 281: Run!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Scarface’s frustration was within expectations.
After all, he was not the main force of this operation. The organization had even said that the target of this mission was very difficult to deal with, so they had temporarily sent his team as support.
Not only had they been given guns, but they had also been given some grenades and bombs for safekeeping. Now that the mission had been ruined, they had no right to use the grenades and bombs. Before they could hand them over to Rattlesnake, the man and others’ whereabouts were unlmown.
He was the person in charge to respond to Rattlesnake. Whether the latter was dead or alive, it would be his dereliction of duty if he could not bring him back. He would have to bear the responsibility when he returned to the organization, and he might even lose his life.
Scarface was extremely displeased with Rattlesnake and Fatty for implicating him and his underlings when they failed to complete their task.
The people who were chasing them looked very professional, as if they had come prepared. At first, Scarface could still turn around and shoot a few times, but he gradually began to feel that things were not in his control.
Just as the situation was getting more dire, the communication device attached to Scarface’s chest vibrated.
“You don’t have to worry about Rattlesnake and Fatty. Go back to your territory and be careful not to be discovered.” Scarface picked up the call and heard this.
Scarface thought about this sentence in his head. Did this mean that he would not be held responsible?
That was really… great.
“Qiang Zi! Run! Leave everything behind!” Scarface ordered. His most capable underling, Qiang Zi, immediately stopped fighting with Yan-3’s men. The other men also quickly began to leave the place.
They were usually in charge of providing support, so they were good at escaping. They quickly pulled away from Yan-3’s men.
Yan-3 did not chase after them. He only sent two people to try and follow them to find their nest or the mastermind. The rest of the people followed Yan-3 back to interrogate Rattlesnake and Fatty.
This part was immediately transmitted to Yan Ruo’s earphones.
However, the livestream continued and Bai Lin had already entered the door that Jing Shan and the others had used to enter the underground space.
Yan-3 knew what to do next, and Yan Ruo was slightly relieved.
The path in the underground space was very winding. There were many glass jars on the walls on both sides of the path. The animals and plants in them seemed to be sealed with formalin. There were also some humanoid creatures and zombies, which made it look very eerie.
There were also some water stains and scratches on the ground and walls. Perhaps Jing Shan and the others had already triggered all the traps along the way, it was very quiet after they entered.
A scream came from the path, and it sounded like Ye Xing.
It seemed like they were very close. Bai Lin quickened her pace and ran into Ye Xing at the corner of the path.
Ye Xing ran forward with her eyes closed. Suddenly, she ran into a solid object and was shocked. Her body went limp and she was about to fall to the ground. Bai Lin quickly held her up and prevented her from falling into the pool of water.
“What’s wrong? Where are the rest?” Bai Lin was surprised to see only Ye Xing running over while Li Xuan and the others did not even make a sound.
Ye Xing looked up and saw Bai Lin’s face. She looked left and right and saw Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang. Her frightened heart seemed to be comforted as she hugged Bai Lin’s waist tightly and burst into tears.
No one had ever relied on Bai Lin so much like a lost child. She was a little stunned and subconsciously hugged Ye Xing back, gently patting her back.
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. It’s fine now.” Bai Lin clumsily consoled Ye Xing. She did not know that Yan Ruo was staring at Ye Xing’s hands that were tightly wrapped around her waist with a fiery gaze.
[Best Actor Yan’s death stare. He’s even jealous of a girl. I didn’t expect him to be a super jealous man in private.]
[You can’t blame baby Xiao Xing for being like this. It’s really too scary here.]
[Yeah, but it should be much better now that Lin-jie and the others are here.
Lin-jie and the others are very strong.]
Bai Lin hugged Ye Xing and tried to piece together what had happened to them from Ye Xing’s crying and intermittent words, but Ye Xing’s emotions were extremely unstable and she could not explain anything.
Suddenly, Bai Lin’s sharp senses picked up the sound of water dripping on glass..
