Time passed minute by minute, and the tent became unusually quiet, so quiet that it made people feel suffocated.
Huang Lei has been saving people day and night for the past few days, and most of his strength has been consumed. Now he has traveled several miles and is sweating profusely. At this moment, he already feels his legs are weak, and he really wants to find a place to rest for a while, but when he thinks of those who are waiting for him to call for help, he is full of strength all over his body. He desperately cheers himself up, telling himself to hold on a little longer, hold on a little longer. Everyone has placed all their hopes on him, and he cannot let them down.
Every time when he was about to give up, Huang Lei would cheer himself up. Finally, his hard work paid off. After traveling for half a day, Huang Lei finally reached Beijing. He saw the hope of victory, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He told himself that he must seize the time and must get back before dark.
He reached out to wipe the sweat dripping from his face, and walked to Brother Mao's pawnshop with legs that felt like they were filled with lead.
When Cat's wife saw him, she was stunned: "Huang Lei? Is your army on holiday? Why are you sweating so much? What happened?"
Huang Lei didn't have time to respond to her series of questions. He grabbed her table and said anxiously, "Where's Brother Mao? I want to see Brother Mao."
"He's not at home! He went out to play cards with some friends early in the morning." Cat Brother's wife said confusedly.
"Hurry up and find Brother Mao. I have something urgent to discuss with him." Huang Lei said breathlessly.
Although Brother Mao's wife was confused, she knew something big must have happened when she saw Huang Lei's expression.
"Wait a minute, I'll find someone for you." As she spoke, she had already walked out of the pawnshop.
Huang Lei looked around and finally his eyes fell on the kettle on the table. Without even pouring the water into the cup, he picked up the kettle and started drinking it.
After drinking to his heart's content, Huang Lei felt full of strength.
A moment later, Brother Mao rushed in through the door and asked directly, "Huang Lei, what happened?"
Huang Lei handed the note to Brother Mao without saying a word: "Captain Cheng is waiting for you to rescue him outside Beijing. If we can't get there before dark, they will be in danger."
After reading the note, Brother Mao looked at Huang Lei with wide eyes: "Brother, wait here for me, I'll go find someone right away."
After all, Brother Mao was a big shot in Beijing and was doing well here. If he spoke, there would surely be many brothers in the underworld willing to help, and he would quickly gather a lot of people.
Huang Lei really had to admire Brother Mao's strength. He was able to gather so many people in such a short time. He was worthy of being Brother Mao.
"Huang Lei, time is running out, you lead the way." Brother Mao said seriously.
Huang Lei nodded slightly, his whole body filled with strength.
The people waiting in the tent began to get restless. As time passed, Zhao Yuenan became increasingly uneasy. She held Zheng Xinyi's hand tightly and asked, "Is Huang Lei okay?"
"No, no, it's still early before dark, let's not scare ourselves." Zheng Xinyi comforted, but she said this, but she was also worried and anxious.
"My intuition tells me that Huang Lei and Brother Mao are on their way." Cheng Haoyu said seriously.
