Chapter 207 Extreme Cooling 3
The outdoor temperature is too low for strenuous exercise.
Xia Xiaoman quietly watched the criminals climb over the wall one by one. When they were about to reach the trap she had set, Xia Xiaoman's heart rose to her throat.
However, when the other party stepped on the trap, the trap did not react at all. Instead, the other party discovered something was wrong, swept away the snow on the surface, saw the trap underneath, and kicked the trap away.
Xia Xiaoman: “…”
After two or three traps failed in succession, Xia Xiaoman hurriedly took Maodan downstairs.
As soon as he ran to the stairs, he was confronted by several gangsters who had kicked open the door.
When Maodan saw a stranger, he immediately arched his body, bared his teeth, made threatening whimpering sounds, and his hair stood up, ready to pounce and bite the enemy at any time.
Xia Xiaoman was much calmer than Maodan. He took out a high-intensity flashlight and shone it across the street. The gangster on the opposite side saw the sudden strong light and subconsciously blocked it with his hands.
Under the light, Xia Xiaoman saw that the other person was wearing an ordinary down jacket, not some polar cold-proof clothing. Could she have made a mistake?
Thinking back, Xia Xiaoman took out his pistol and fired two shots at the criminals. Since they were not wearing polar cold-proof clothing, there was no need to be careful to avoid the clothes and deal with the other party. It would be easier to just shoot them.
Seeing several accomplices fall, the people standing behind who had not yet had time to enter the house immediately turned around and ran away.
Xia Xiaoman would never give them a chance to escape. After a few shots, these seven or eight gangsters all fell to the ground.
Seeing that there was no danger, Maodan rushed forward and tried to bite the enemy, but was stopped by Xia Xiaoman, "With your newly grown teeth, what can you bite? Don't go over there, or someone might stab you with a knife!"
Maodan whined twice and lay on the ground in grievance. Xia Xiaoman ignored it, took out his Tang knife and walked over to cut their throats one by one.
One of the men who was shot in the back saw Xia Xiaoman's quick and efficient finishing blow and moved away in fear, trying to get away from Xia Xiaoman.
But he was seriously injured, and even if he wanted to escape, he couldn't. Seeing Xia Xiaoman coming over, he immediately begged for mercy: "Don't, don't kill me, I was forced..."
When Xia Xiaoman heard his voice, she felt it sounded familiar. When she saw the clothes he was wearing, she remembered who he was. "Are you the one who gave me the flare a few days ago?"
The other party nodded hurriedly, "For the sake of the flare I gave you, can you please let me go? I promise, I will never bother you again!"
Xia Xiaoman sneered, "You want me to let you go just by giving me an empty flare? Do you think I'm a fool, or did you not wake up last night and are still daydreaming?"
The man tried to argue after hearing this, "I, I didn't know the flares were empty. They gave them to me, I didn't know..."
"You didn't know the flare was empty, but you knew to use it to frame me and find out about my family situation. If I had obediently jumped off the wall and walked to your side to get the flare that day, maybe I would be beheaded now, right?"
Xia Xiaoman held a sharp Tang sword and slowly pointed it at the man. "You lied to me about more than one thing. You also said that this group of robbers got a batch of polar cold-proof clothing, so they can go out in such a cold weather. Is this the polar cold-proof clothing you mentioned?"
If she had known that these people did not have polar cold-proof clothing, she would never have let them enter the yard and would have shot them all to death on the second floor, saving her the trouble of moving the bodies.
The man was shaking uncontrollably, perhaps from the pain or the excessive blood loss. "I, I didn't lie to you. The coats we wear are stuffed with a lot of rabbit fur, which is warmer than coats made of rabbit skin. Wearing this coat, we won't feel that cold even in the polar regions. It's better than polar winter clothing."
Xia Xiaoman frowned and cut open his coat with a Tang sword, and sure enough, there was a lot of fluff inside.
"Where did you get this dress?"
"We were really lucky. After the snowstorm ended, we planned to go to the sewer to avoid the cold. On the way to the sewer, we saw a truck parked on the side of the road. The soldiers in the truck had been frozen to death, so we took the rabbit fur down jackets back." The uniform he wore a few days ago was taken off that soldier.
"Beauty, if you're willing to let me go, I can give you all the remaining down jackets."
Xia Xiaoman thought about it, tied him up, and then killed all the remaining people. After making sure that these people were dead, he took off their rabbit fur down jackets and put them on.
After putting on his clothes and breathing mask, Xia Xiaoman climbed over the wall, took out the snowmobile from the space, then went back to throw the tied man out of the wall and tied him to the back seat of the snowmobile.
"Take me to your lair. If you don't want to eat peanuts, don't play tricks on me and lead the way!"
The man nodded and begged, "I will lead the way. Can you please not tie me up? The rope is pinching my wound and it hurts too much."
"Stop talking nonsense and show me the way!" How dare a prisoner make demands? Where does he get the nerve to do that?
The man turned pale with pain, but he didn't dare to argue and just pointed the way obediently.
Xia Xiaoman got on her motorcycle and was about to leave when she heard Maodan's howling. She sighed, got off the motorcycle, and swiftly climbed into the yard and into the living room.
Maodan anxiously pried open the crack in the door, and when he saw the shovel, he immediately howled in accusation: Didn't we agree to take it with us when we go out? Why did you leave it here so soon?
Hearing Maodan's dissatisfied howl, Xia Xiaoman said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll take you out now." As she spoke, she unzipped her coat, picked up the more than ten pounds Maodan and stuffed him into her arms, then zipped it up again, leaving only a small opening for breathing.
After climbing over the wall again, Xia Xiaoman saw the man tied to the car trying to break free from the ropes. Xia Xiaoman slapped the man on the wound, causing him to scream in pain.
"Want to escape?"
The man endured the pain and shook his head frantically in denial, "No, no, it's just that the wound hurts too much, I want to move the rope to another position."
Xia Xiaoman snorted coldly, without saying anything, she got on the snowmobile and started pedaling in the direction the man pointed.
The biting cold wind blew in Xia Xiaoman's face. She was afraid of getting frostbitten if she drove too fast, so she slowed down. Maodan in her arms struggled a bit, revealing his furry head, but it only stuck out for two seconds before it shrank back due to the cold.
She drove all the way and when she arrived at the address the man gave, she saw from a distance that there were several snowmobiles parked nearby, and there were several people guarding the snowmobiles with sticks in their hands.
Xia Xiaoman found a corner to stop the car and pulled the man down. "Are those also your accomplices?"
