Chapter 165 Escape
Xiao Zheyu saw them bending over and biting the ropes in strange postures, their lips almost broken by biting, and he couldn't bear it and said, "Well, actually you don't need to be so anxious to untie the ropes."
"I escaped from here once before. That time I escaped when they took me to take a shower and change clothes. There are no windows or vents here. There is only a locked door. Even if you bite the rope open, you can't escape. It's better to wait until they take us to change clothes to escape."
The boy who suggested biting the rope glared at him and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I bit my lips so hard!"
Xiao Zheyu curled his lips, "You didn't ask!"
“You…” The young man was furious and wanted to curse, but the girl next to him persuaded him: “Forget it, forget it, it’s us who didn’t ask clearly. Let’s wait for the people who kidnapped us to take a shower and change clothes, and then think of a way to escape!”
"So you won't bite the rope now?" someone asked.
The girl hummed, "Rest first and conserve your energy."
Although the room was dim, it was not cold. There were several water pipes installed in the middle of the wall, and when you approached the pipes, you could clearly feel a heat.
The people in the house woke up with a fright, but now they are feeling a little calmer. In this warm and dim environment, they are gradually becoming sleepy, and soon someone lies on the floor and falls asleep.
Of course, there were also some timid ones who couldn’t sleep and curled up into a ball crying quietly.
Xia Xiaoman knew that she was safe for the time being, so she closed her eyes and went to sleep.
…
At noon the next day, the door was opened and several strong men came in from outside and untied the ropes around Xia Xiaoman and the others' feet.
"Everyone, be quiet and line up!" the sturdy man said ferociously, holding a submachine gun in his hand.
A few timid ones took one look at the strong man and were frightened into tears.
Xia Xiaoman and Xiao Zheyu followed the team forward. After about 15 minutes, they came to a brighter room with several long tables neatly placed with dishes and chopsticks.
"Find a seat and sit down, don't try to show off!" the sturdy man said, and pushed the boy in front of him on the shoulder, and the boy almost fell to the ground.
After everyone was seated, two aunties came in with a food cart and put several large bowls of steamed buns on the table.
After the two ladies who served the food left, the strong man said, "Eat! After you finish eating, I will take you to take a bath."
Someone moved his bound hands, "Brother, can you untie the rope? I can't eat with my hands tied."
The sturdy man glanced at him, picked up a steamed bun and threw it on the ground. Then he pulled his neck and dragged him to the ground. He pressed his head hard in front of the steamed bun and said viciously: "Can you eat it now? Eat it! Give it to me!"
The others who also wanted the kidnappers to untie the ropes saw this scene, and they obediently bent their backs like dogs, stretched their heads to the basin, picked up a steamed bun, and slowly ate it on their plates.
Xia Xiaoman clenched her fists, her eyes full of murderous intent. Xiao Zheyu was afraid that she would ruin her plan in her impulse, so he quickly took a steamed bun and put it in front of her plate, "Sister, this steamed bun has sugar in it, it's quite delicious, you try it."
Xia Xiaoman took a deep breath and repeated in his mind, "For the pistol, for the bullet, for the grenade... hold on!"
Before she finished reciting the sutra, someone came in from outside and urged, "What's going on? The customers have already arrived, and the goods haven't been packed yet. Hurry up and take them to take a shower and change clothes!"
"I know, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!" The sturdy man kicked the stool with an impatient look on his face, "You are all deaf and blind! Get out of here right now!"
Everyone stopped eating their steamed buns, stood up, lined up obediently and followed the strong man.
After walking for about ten minutes, we arrived at the bathhouse. It was called a bathhouse, but it was actually a relatively large room with no shelter and twenty bathtubs.
After Xia Xiaoman and the others entered the room, the ropes tied around their hands were untied.
The sturdy man said in a rough voice: "Take off your clothes and take a shower. Don't have any bad ideas. If I find anyone running away, I will break your legs!"
After threatening for a while, the strong man stepped aside to let them in. Inside the room, people had been arranged to help Xia Xiaoman and the others take a bath, scrubbing their backs and shaving their hair.
Someone saw that there was no covering in the room and asked cautiously, "Are men and women washing together?"
The strong man did not answer. The aunt who was helping to bathe said with a smile: "Yes, men and women bathe together. Don't worry, in our eyes, you are just a piece of white flesh, there is no need to be embarrassed."
After hearing what the aunt said, the man's face immediately turned purple, and it was unclear whether he was scared or embarrassed.
On the other side, Xia Xiaoman secretly observed the surroundings. Including her and Xiao Zheyu, there were 34 people captured. There were 20 aunties helping with the bathing, and 6 kidnappers guarding, one of whom was right next to her...
At this moment, a girl who heard the aunt's words said in a shrill voice: "Men and women taking a shower together? No! There is not even a piece of cloth to cover us. If men and women take a shower together, won't I be seen naked by these men?"
The girl's voice attracted the attention of several kidnappers. One of them scolded her coldly, "Why are you making so much noise? Just wash it when I tell you to. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will shoot you!"
At the same time, Xia Xiaoman and Xiao Zheyu exchanged glances, and Xiao Zheyu touched the hand of the person in front of him calmly. Then, the person in front took a step forward as if curious about the situation in the room, and his hand accidentally touched the waist of the person standing in front of him.
The girl was still stubborn and refused to take off her clothes. The sturdy man became impatient and went forward to forcibly tear off the girl's clothes.
At this moment, the boy standing next to the girl grabbed the submachine gun hanging on the sturdy man's body. At the same time, the other captured people also attacked the other five kidnappers.
Xia Xiaoman reached into her pocket, took out a dagger and stuffed it into Xiao Zheyu's hand, then took out another dagger and rushed out to stab the kidnapper next to her.
The twenty aunties who were bathing were frightened by this scene. After they reacted, they immediately stepped forward to help the robbers deal with Xia Xiaoman and his gang.
Xia Xiaoman killed one kidnapper cleanly and efficiently, snatched the other's gun and put it on his back, then ran to kill the other five kidnappers.
She was not the only one who wanted to grab the gun. Xia Xiaoman and Xiao Zheyu got another submachine gun in the melee before turning around and fleeing the bathroom. Before leaving, Xiao Zheyu did not forget to remind others to escape.
Without these people to divert the firepower, how could he and Xia Xiaoman get to the warehouse smoothly?
The boys and girls who were still fighting with the kidnappers saw Xia Xiaoman running away. They didn't care about anything else and grabbed the submachine guns and ran away.
