Chapter 145 Priorities
If the drug can knock down two of them, Qu Le is confident that he can deal with the other two.
When Qu Le thought of this, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart. These people didn't even confiscate the weapon in her hand. Did they underestimate her?
Qu Le took a deep breath, tried to steady his heartbeat and breathing, and began to concentrate on untying the knot in Lu Qian's hand.
The rope was much stronger than Qu Le had imagined, and she didn't have any handy tools. She just relied on her nails and hands to scratch it. It didn't take long before her fingertips began to bleed.
Moreover, it was pitch black, her hands were tied behind her back, and she had to turn her back to Lu Qian to untie the rope. This task was several times more difficult than she had imagined.
Time passed by, but the kidnappers outside the door didn't seem to care about the two of them.
The wind blew the old and broken windows, and the crackling sound echoed in the warehouse, and the smell of danger spread infinitely in the quiet air.
The quiet warehouse, the strange location, the mysterious kidnappers, everything is so suspicious.
Finally feeling the knot loosen a little, Qu Le was so excited that he even forgot the pain in his fingertips.
As long as Lu Qian could free her hands and pick up the knife at her waist, it would be much easier to untie her rope.
The air was extremely quiet. When the guard outside walked past the door of the secret room, even though he didn't get close to the iron door, Lu Qian's heart was so scared that it almost jumped out of his throat.
Lu Qian felt that the restraints on his hands had loosened a little and he seemed to be able to move, so he tried to gently pull his hands out.
The moment they pulled one hand out of the knot, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
The first thing Lu Qian did after untying his hands was to tear open the tape on Qu Le and her face.
The two of them gasped for a while. It was really uncomfortable to have their mouths sealed.
Lu Qian shook his stiff wrist, and as if by telepathy, he reached for the knife at Qu Le's waist.
The short blade that Qu Le carries with her is specially used for cutting things. It can even cut metal with low hardness. It is small and precise, and can be hidden in the sleeve when necessary. It is a habit she developed when she was stealing things.
Lu Qian just grabbed the knife he had touched.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the door, and the sound of a car suddenly stopping in the distance. The harsh brake sound sounded very urgent, as if it was chasing something.
The car door opened, and a large group of people walked out, with the obvious sound of weapons on their bodies.
The sounds of machine guns, explosives, and cold blades colliding were particularly harsh in this open environment.
These people should be counted by at least ten.
Lu Qian was a little panicked. With so many people, the drugs in her hand were not enough to deal with them.
Qu Le frowned, and immediately took advantage of the chaos outside to put his left ear close to Lu Qian and lowered his voice.
"It's too late to untie the rope, turn on the communicator quickly."
Lu Qian hid the knife in his sleeve, quickly took off the communicator on Qu Le's ear bone, pressed the inconspicuous small button on the inside, and then put it back on Qu Le's ear bone.
Lu Qian breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she could get the message out, Cheng Yi would definitely find a way to rescue them.
The door of the abandoned warehouse was kicked open roughly, and the rumbling vibration lasted for five or six seconds before stopping.
Dust was stirred up by the flapping of the door, and even through the tightly closed iron door of the secret room, the two of them were filled with dust.
Lu Qian listened carefully to the sounds outside the door. Even among the chaotic footsteps, he could hear the obvious sound of high heels approaching.
She quickly raised her hand to seal the tape on their mouths, and pretended to put her hand back into the knot after pulling it out.
If these people find out that they can escape, it will not be easy for them to find another opportunity.
Just as they finished all this, the people in the warehouse spoke up and greeted the newcomer in unison: "Sir."
Sir? Who?
A charming female voice sounded outside the secret room: "I'm here to pick someone up."
The moment he heard the voice, doubts immediately filled Lu Qian's mind. It was a woman? Not Vincenzo?
Qu Le was stunned. It was her?
Hearing the woman's words, the guard outside the door was obviously very embarrassed: "But... the general hasn't given the order yet."
There was a loud slap, followed by the woman's furious roar: "I'm cooperating with your general, do I have to tell you everything about our plan? You're a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
The woman's tone was urgent, and she sounded very eager to take the person away.
“…”
After the woman got angry, at least dozens of people outside the house fell silent, even their breathing became very light.
They were obviously not convinced by the woman's words, but faced with the many elite soldiers she brought, they did not dare to resist.
After a period of silence, someone spoke first.
"Excuse me, I, we'll open the door for you right away."
Then, the sound of chains hitting door panels came into my ears.
The iron door rattled a few times, as if someone was pulling it. The sound of the iron door panel rubbing against the rubble was extremely harsh, and Qu Le and Lu Qian couldn't help but frown.
The door of the secret room was opened with a bang with this muffled sound.
Before they could see clearly what was happening outside the door, an extremely dazzling light flashed before their eyes. Their pupils, which had already become accustomed to darkness, shrank rapidly under the stimulation of the light. Their eyelids closed uncontrollably, their eyeballs became sore, swollen and numb, and they immediately shed tears.
Qu Leqiang opened his eyes, blinked away the tears in his eyes, and looked carefully. Behind the strong light source, there was a blurry figure, but he could vaguely recognize who it was.
Qu Le's brows suddenly frowned. It was really Wang Jue.
Outside the door, a group of people in mercenary uniforms were holding searchlights, shining them at the two people huddled in the secret room.
The moment Wang Jue saw Qu Le, the jealousy and anger in his eyes could not be concealed at all. He was so angry that he bit his back teeth, and his charming face looked ugly.
She raised her hands, which were clenched until the knuckles turned white, and pointed them at Qu Le viciously.
"Take her away from me."
At Wang Jue's command, the tall man behind her immediately stepped forward, dragged Qu Le's ankle, and dragged him out of the secret room like pulling a piece of rag.
“Hmm!”
Lu Qian wanted to stop her, but Qu Le turned around and shook her head at her with forbearance.
If both of them were in danger at this time, all previous efforts would be in vain.
The big guy grabbed Qu Le's collar, lifted her up, and looked her up and down with disdain.
"Is this what Bai Yao likes? I don't think it's even half as good as my elder sister."
Qu Le's collar made it difficult for him to breathe, his face flushed, and he kept kicking his legs.
Lu Qian looked at Qu Le like this, his eyes full of heartache and he kept frowning.
But she still understood the priorities of the moment and knew that now was not the time to act on impulse.
When Wang Jue heard the big guy's words, he chuckled with satisfaction, and there was a hint of arrogance in his subsequent words.
"take away."
Then he would turn around and leave with everyone.
The soldier behind him asked tremblingly: "...Sir, where is the other woman?"
Wang Jue turned around and glanced at Lu Qian with disdain, "Vincenzo will deal with this woman later."
