Lin Yuexi slowly opened her eyes, picked up the pen, and began to draw on the drawing. She deliberately drew slowly, and each stroke was extremely cautious, while paying attention to the reactions of the criminals.
The hook-nosed man would come over from time to time to check on the progress, his eyes full of suspicion and anxiety.
"You're drawing too slowly. Are you playing some tricks again?" The hook-nosed man couldn't help but ask again.
Lin Yuexi stopped writing, looked up at him, and said calmly: "I told you, this drawing is very complicated and cannot tolerate any mistakes. If you continue to interfere with me like this, I can't guarantee that I can draw the correct drawing."
The hook-nosed man was speechless after hearing Lin Yuexi's words and could only pace anxiously.
The other criminals also stared at Lin Yuexi, their eyes revealing vigilance and impatience.
At this moment, a slight strange noise suddenly came from outside the cave, as if someone accidentally touched a rock.
The criminals became alert instantly, tightened their weapons and looked towards the cave entrance.
The hook-nosed man's expression changed, and he whispered to his men, "Go out and take a look. Be careful and don't make too much noise."
Several criminals cautiously moved towards the cave entrance.
Lin Yuexi was delighted, she knew that it was very likely that Gong Mufeng's rescue team was approaching quietly.
She must seize this opportunity, cooperate with the rescue outside, and catch the criminals off guard.
So, she deliberately raised her voice and said, "Why are you all so nervous? Is there something going on outside? Don't let yourself get flustered before you get the blueprint."
The hook-nosed man glared at Lin Yuexi fiercely and said, "Stop talking nonsense and concentrate on drawing!"
Lin Yuexi sneered in her heart, but pretended to be scared on the surface, lowered her head and continued drawing.
In fact, while she was painting, she was keeping an eye on the movements in the direction of the cave entrance, ready to cooperate with Gong Mufeng at any time to launch a counterattack...
The criminals who moved towards the cave entrance were very cautious and disappeared into the darkness like ghosts.
The atmosphere in the cave became increasingly tense, like a taut string that could break at any time.
Lin Yuexi could feel that the criminals' attention was now attracted by the unusual movement at the cave entrance. This was a perfect opportunity.
While pretending to concentrate on drawing, she secretly observed the movements of the hook-nosed man.
The man with the hooked nose stood not far away, his brows furrowed, looking towards the cave entrance from time to time, and the gun in his hand was unconsciously clenched, revealing his inner nervousness.
Lin Yuexi knew that she had to find a way to distract his attention and buy more time for Gong Mufeng and the others.
"I say, if you are afraid, why do you kidnap my child? Why don't you just go back to your own country..."
Lin Yuexi deliberately said in a slightly sarcastic tone, "Are you afraid that someone will come to rescue us? With your little courage, you still want to get the blueprint from me?"
The hooked nose glared at him and said viciously: "You'd better shut up! If you dare to say anything more, I will kill you now!"
Lin Yuexi was secretly delighted, knowing that her provocation had worked. She continued to provoke, "Humph, if you wanted to kill me, you would have killed me long ago. How could you have kept me alive until now?"
The hook-nosed man's face turned blue with anger. He walked a few steps to Lin Yuexi, raised his gun, and pretended to shoot.
Lin Yuexi's heart tightened, but she still pretended to be calm, looking straight into the eyes of the hooked nose, without backing down.
Just as he was about to pull the trigger, the hook-nosed man stopped abruptly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Killing you will do me no good. I will deal with you slowly after I get the blueprints!"
Lin Yuexi breathed a sigh of relief, but still pretended to be terrified on her face.
At this moment, a slight fighting sound suddenly came from the direction of the cave entrance. Although the sound was not loud, it was particularly clear in this quiet cave.
The criminals suddenly panicked. The hook-nosed man's face changed drastically and he shouted towards the cave entrance: "What's going on?"
However, no one responded to him.
Lin Yuexi knew in her heart that Gong Mufeng and his men must have already started fighting with the criminals guarding the cave entrance.
If I don't find a way to take the child away, I, Gong Mufeng, will be controlled by them.
So she seized the opportunity, suddenly stood up, and kicked the gun in the hook-nosed man's hand.
The hook-nosed man didn't expect Lin Yuexi to suddenly attack him. His gun was kicked away and he staggered back a few steps.
Taking advantage of the moment when his attention was distracted, Lin Yuexi quickly took out a pre-prepared anesthetic gun from the space.
She had accidentally discovered this anesthetic gun in the space before, and she didn't expect it to come in handy at this moment.
Lin Yuexi shot at the gangster closest to her without hesitation. Before the man could react, he was shot with the anesthetic needle and fell to the ground instantly.
Seeing this, Hook Nose was about to order his men to surround him, but Lin Yuexi dodged and the tranquilizer gun was pointed at his head.
Then he pointed at the villain holding the child with his other hand and said, "Bring the child to me, or I will kill him..."
The gangster holding the child looked hesitant, with a look of fear of the hooked nose and the fear that Lin Yuexi would really shoot.
He looked at the hooked nose, then at Lin Yuexi, and subconsciously held the child tightly in his arms, as if this could give him some confidence.
The hook-nosed man's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't listen to her. She doesn't dare to shoot! This woman is just bluffing!"
Lin Yuexi sneered, exerted a little force on her hand, pressed the tranquilizer gun tightly against the hook-nosed head, and said word by word: "You can try and see if I am bluffing. I have lost my patience. You kidnapped my child and threatened my family. No one will get away with it today!"
As she spoke, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, and her finger was already lightly on the trigger.
Seeing this, the gangster holding the child became more and more frightened, and his legs began to tremble slightly. He knew that Lin Yuexi had been forced into a desperate situation at the moment, and might really shoot regardless of the consequences.
Just as he was hesitating, the sound of fighting from the direction of the cave entrance became more intense, and he could faintly hear someone shouting: "Don't let them get away!"
The criminals' attention was drawn to that place, and they became a little flustered.
Lin Yuexi took the opportunity to shout loudly: "You have been surrounded. If you give me the child now, you can still have a chance to live! Otherwise, when my husband attacks, none of you will be able to escape!" These words hit the criminals' hearts like a heavy hammer.
"Boss, I'm sorry, in order to save you..." After saying that, the two men came over with the children. Lin Yuexi used her mind to carry the baby's backpack from space, and directed one of them to carry Gong Yichen on her back first, and then took Gong Yutong with the other hand.
Lin Yuexi held Gong Yutong tightly in one hand and carried Gong Yichen on her back. She felt a little comforted, but the situation was still tense.
She pressed the tranquilizer gun against her hooked nose and glanced vigilantly at the panicked criminals around her.
