Yu Yao and Wu Huaiqing rushed to the warehouse door and pounded on it, shouting, "Hey! Don't go! There are still people inside! Hey!"
The two took pictures for a while, but no one outside responded.
"It seems they deliberately lured you here." After making this judgment, Yu Yao found a place to sit down and rest.
Wu Huaiqing took out a note. “The other party was able to imitate your handwriting, which means they came prepared. I just don’t know what they want to do. Is it just to trap us here for the night as a warning?”
Yu Yao said, "That's possible. Could it be Zhou Qiang? He's petty and narrow-minded. He must have held a grudge since Su Yu's matter didn't go as planned last time, and it's not impossible that he's deliberately trying to mess with us."
After speaking, Yu Yao suddenly paused, her brows furrowing, "Brother, don't you feel like it's getting hotter and hotter in here?"
Wu Huaiqing took a look around and said, "It seems a bit hot. This warehouse used to be a tobacco curing room in a cigarette factory. It's airtight, so it's normal for it to be hotter than before."
Yu Yao shook her head. "No, I smell something burning."
She got up and walked into the warehouse. The further she walked into the warehouse, the higher the temperature became, exceeding the normal temperature.
Yu Yao placed her hand near the metal floor in the corner of the warehouse, which was the furnace of the tobacco curing room.
"What's wrong?"
Yu Yao looked at the metal sheet area with a serious expression: "Someone is heating up the warehouse; they're trying to roast us alive."
A farmer's home in Huangniling Production Team on the island.
Zhou Qiang got up to leave, but was stopped by Bull Shark.
Bull Shark narrowed his eyes. "What do you want to do?"
"What else can I do but go back to the factory? I just want you to teach those two a lesson, drug them, and catch them in the act at the warehouse first thing tomorrow morning. I don't want to kill them."
"Zhou Qiang, do you think this is child's play? Catching someone in the act? You only know how to use such low-class methods. No wonder you can't compete with Wu Huaiqing."
Bull Shark's contemptuous mockery stung Zhou Qiang. He dared not speak out in anger, and was even more afraid that Wu Huaiqing and Yu Yao would die.
“Bullshark, everyone at the factory knows that I don’t get along with Wu Huaiqing. If Wu Huaiqing dies, the first person the police will suspect will definitely be me.”
The thought of this filled Zhou Qiang with fear.
"Bullshark, please let me go back. I don't want to become a murderer, I don't want to go to jail, I don't want to die."
Bull Shark grabbed Zhou Qiang by the neck, his eyes icy: "Wu Huaiqing has already found out about the black market. If I don't kill him, he'll find out about us sooner or later. Or are you going to die in his place?"
Zhou Qiang couldn't breathe, his face turned red, and he kept slapping Bull Shark's arm, "Let go, let go."
Bull Shark threw Zhou Qiang aside, saying, "Don't worry, you're still useful to us. We won't let you die."
Zhou Qiang coughed incessantly, staring at the bull shark in fear; his crotch was soaked.
Just now, he almost died at the hands of this man.
The others around Bull Shark and his gang couldn't help but laugh, "This bastard is such a coward, he actually peed his pants in fear. He's really useless, hahaha!"
"Director Zhou, right? As long as you behave and follow our orders, you'll get your share of the benefits. But if you have any improper thoughts, that's what will happen to you."
The man was one-eyed, with a scar running through his right eye. As he spoke, he dragged a bloodied and mangled figure dressed in tight-fitting clothes out of the house and threw it on the ground.
Zhou Qiang only glanced at it, and his crotch became even wetter.
This group of people has gone mad; they even dared to kill members of the island's armed forces.
"Don't kill me! I'll do anything you ask. Don't kill me!"
Seeing how terrified he was, those people's smiles widened, carrying a cruel and mocking tone.
Bull Shark waved at One-Eyed Dragon, "Throw him into the sea to feed the fish."
The one-eyed man dragged the blood-covered man out and returned empty-handed shortly afterward.
Zhou Qiang's face turned deathly pale, and he trembled as he shrank into the corner.
He was filled with regret. He should never have been greedy for that two thousand yuan. These people were a bunch of ruthless madmen.
Bull Shark squatted down in front of him, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Go home and get a good night's sleep tonight. Tomorrow, when the stevedores open the warehouse, they'll only find two disheveled corpses. Outsiders will just think that these two were having an affair and accidentally got locked in the warehouse. There won't be any clues left. The police won't find any evidence either. Just keep your mouth shut and insist that you didn't know anything. Understand?"
Zhou Qiang nodded frantically, stammering, "I...I understand."

Yu Yao wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Let's look for an exit first. If this used to be a tobacco curing barn, there might be a chimney or some kind of ventilation shaft."
Wu Huaiqing nodded, "Let's look for it."
The warehouse was only a little over 300 square meters. Apart from the sugarcane, the remaining space was not large. Yu Yao and Wu Huaiqing searched several times but could not find any ventilation openings.
Yu Yao stared at the wall, her brows furrowed. "That shouldn't be the case. There must be some ventilation openings."
She stood in the corner of the warehouse, trying her best to think of the possible locations of the chimney. This time, the two of them searched even more carefully.
Finally, we found the ventilation opening behind the sheet metal.
However, the ventilation openings were completely blocked by cement, so there was no airflow at all.
This search not only failed to find the ventilation shaft, but also exhausted the two of them, leaving them with no choice but to return to the warehouse entrance.
The warehouse was airtight, and as time went by, the temperature inside rose higher and higher, making it extremely stuffy.
Yu Yao and Wu Huaiqing were both sweating. They took off their coats, leaving only shirts, but even so, they were still very hot.
Sweat dripped down like rain, and as the temperature rose, the air in the warehouse grew thinner and thinner.
