"Ahem...Are you Ye Lei?"
Three people got out of the car opposite, and the one in the lead asked.
"You don't even recognize me, how can you do this job?"
Ye Lei did not answer, but instead gave the impression of taking the initiative.
“Our Brother Kai said that as long as you leave 500 bags of rice and flour, those two women will go with you!”
The one in charge turned out to be just a messenger.
"Oh, is it that simple? Where's your Brother Kai? I have something to ask him!"
Ye Lei vowed not to give up until he saw Zheng Kai.
"Do you think you can just see our Brother Kai whenever you want?"
"Haha... Interesting. In that case, I'll wait for him here. You have no right to speak."
Ye Lei waved his finger, turned around and got into the car. He wasn't in a hurry. Zheng Kai just wanted to get the rice and flour. Until he got them, Chen Xueer and Sarah were safe.
As time passed, every minute and second seemed exceptionally long, and the three people standing under the scorching sun could no longer endure it.
They knew very well that if they didn't report the situation to Zheng Kai, they might face even worse consequences, so now all that was left was to test their patience.
In fact, Zheng Kai, who was far away on the roof of the office building, had already seen everything that was happening here through binoculars, and even heard every word Ye Lei said clearly.
Initially, according to Zheng Kai's plan, Ye Lei would, like other kidnappers, capture his three henchmen and use them as hostages to threaten or exchange them.
If he did that, Zheng Kai could justify his kidnapping with a plausible explanation.
However, to his great disappointment, Ye Lei did not adopt this strategy and did not even bother to waste words with them.
Now, Zheng Kai seemed to have only one choice left: to go out and negotiate in person. So he told his brothers who were lying in ambush in the bunker and gave the order: "Everyone get ready and wait for my order to move out."
Having learned from the previous incident at Qingliangshan Forest Park, this time, the brothers who were lying in ambush in the ruins even covered their heads, otherwise they would have been silently eliminated by the poisonous mist snakes.
Having done all this, Zheng Kai went downstairs, drove his black sedan towards where Ye Lei had parked. Ye Lei saw Zheng Kai's car from afar, but he didn't rush to get out. Instead, he waited for Zheng Kai to come over.
"Ye Lei, get out of the car, let's talk!"
Zheng Kai was certainly not stupid enough to walk over there; he stopped his car from a distance and picked up the loudspeaker to shout.
"You can hear me from this far away."
Ye Lei deliberately spoke in a low voice, trying to lure Zheng Kai closer. However, unexpectedly, Zheng Kai heard him. Could it be that microphones had been installed around them? Ye Lei felt like he was being surrounded.
"It's okay, I can hear you. Just speak like a man!"
Goodness, Zheng Kai knows how to use reverse psychology.
"So how do you want to talk?"
Since things have come to this, let's get straight to the point.
"My brother just said that as long as you leave behind the 500 bags of rice and flour that rightfully belong to me, you can leave with your woman!"
This is also the purpose that Zheng Kai has painstakingly planned for so long.
"You mean I stole your 500 bags of rice and flour?"
Ye Lei deliberately stalled for time. He had already secretly controlled the Poisonous Mist Serpent to scout the surrounding area, and his orders were to kill any living people he saw. Little did he know that this tactic had already failed.
"You took the communication equipment I painstakingly collected, shouldn't you give me back the 500 bags of rice and flour?"
"About 500 bags..."
"Alright, stop talking. You're just trying to stall for time, aren't you? Save it. That annoying flying snake won't find a single person!"
Zheng Kai saw through Ye Lei's thoughts and interrupted him with a smile.
"I didn't expect you to become so smart! You're a quick learner!"
"You'd better check how much longer your women can hold out. There's a tablet in the bushes next to you; you can see them there!"
Zheng Kai said smugly that everything was going according to his plan.
After hearing this, Ye Lei quickly walked to the edge of the bushes and picked up the tablet phone that was making a video call.
"Brother Lei, please save us!"
Chen Xueer shouted loudly; she must have seen Ye Lei through the camera on the tablet as well.
"Don't make a sound, where are you right now?"
"I don't know, it's all dark everywhere, like we're underground!"
"Underground? Where would that be?"
"I don't know, there's no one here, and we're strapped with bombs!"
"What? There's a bomb too?"
"Yes, there is a display screen, but the countdown hasn't started yet!"
"Holy crap, this kid is ruthless!"
For the first time, Ye Lei felt completely lost.
"Ye Lei, are you done talking to your woman? Don't worry, without me, you could turn this place upside down and still not find them!"
It seems that Zheng Kai overheard their conversation.
"Kid, all you want is 500 bags of rice and flour. Is it really necessary to go to such lengths?"
Ye Lei's mind was racing as he considered his next plan.
"There's no other way, you forced me into this. Alright, enough nonsense, hurry up and take out 500 bags of rice and flour, otherwise the countdown will begin and you'll never see your woman again!"
Zheng Kai didn't want to delay any longer; the longer it dragged on, the more likely something unexpected would happen.
"No problem, here you go."
Ye Lei waved his hand and took out 200 bags of rice and flour from his spatial storage, piling them in the middle of the road.
"Why is there only so little? It doesn't seem like enough."
Seeing that Ye Lei was starting to compromise, Zheng Kai felt that everything was in the bag.
"I want to see my woman before I give you the remaining 300 bags of rice and flour. What if I give you everything and you don't release them?"
Ye Lei is no fool.
"What time is it? Do you have the right to negotiate with me?"
Zheng Kai didn't want to take only 200 bags of rice and flour. He had already notified a truck that was driving over from a distance and was ready to load the rice.
"What qualifications do I have? You've probably forgotten how your three drones were shot down, haven't you? Believe it or not, that sniper rifle is aimed at your forehead right now."
Ye Lei even tapped his forehead with his index finger.
"What? You brought a sniper?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Kai was so frightened that he hid behind the car.
"No need to hide anymore, it's useless. If it were really about taking your life, would you still have the chance to talk to me for so long?"
Ye Lei knew very well that Beanna's special ability, Precision Shooting, didn't require aiming; she could hit the target every time.
