The night is shrouded,
At the Vision Company's blasting command center, a large group of soldiers armed with live ammunition stood in the front row, ready for battle.
It doesn't look like a command center anymore, but rather a military exercise site.
There were helicopters on standby in the sky, most of them carrying reporters specially bribed by the company, and some armed personnel mixed in.
The cat stood behind the scenes again, quietly sticking its head out to watch.
"It seems like everyone is waiting for Pearlman to return to the scene to report on the explosion."
"This isn't even a press conference. I haven't seen many legitimate media outlets. Why are they all soldiers?"
A woman stood among the soldiers, waiting impatiently. "Has Perlman not contacted yet?"
A soldier walked up to her and said, "Report, the bridge has been blown up, and the hole has suddenly shrunk. I suspect there's an emergency."
"Mr. Pearlman may not be able to leave the Hollow."
The woman glanced at him and said, "Whether he can leave the Hollow or not is not important. This Type III Hollow is our most valuable asset. Anyone can die, but the explosion must be completed on schedule."
"You, take a team of 100 people to investigate the cave. Remember, leave no one alive."
After she said this, she made a cold gesture of cutting her throat.
Nekomata also heard the news behind the scenes, "One hundred people, meow!?"
"Too many, too many. Bai Mu and the others won't be able to handle it."
She frowned slightly, looking at Perlman who had been tied up like a dumpling beside her, and a surge of courage rose in her heart!
Even if I die now, I can't let the team go in. Baimu and the others have been in the cave for a long time. If a battle breaks out, they may be eroded by the cave.
"I have to stop them meow!"
The cat said again, grabbed Pearlman's collar, jumped from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and threw Pearlman to the ground.
Everyone present frowned.
The soldiers also raised their guns.
The cat ripped the tape off Pearlman's mouth, and he immediately yelled, "Don't shoot!"
Nekomata: "I want to see your person in charge!"
The woman in the crowd raised her hand slightly to signal.
The soldiers all looked sideways and discussed, while the woman in the burgundy dress walked forward indifferently.
"What's going on? Why was Mr. Perlman kidnapped by a little girl?"
"I don't know. There's no news coming back from the blasting area..."
“She wanted to see the person in charge right away, and Miss Sarah came out to negotiate in person.
The crowd slowly made way for Miss Sarah.
Nekomata looked at the man. "Are you the one in charge here? My request is simple: Yuanjing must stop the explosion and rescue the residents trapped on the other side of the hole. If you do this, I will return him to you."
She pretended to be calm and negotiated, but she was actually very panicked.
Baimu, why haven't you guys given any news yet?
Sarah snorted coldly. "Hmph, that's easy to say. If we really do what you say and cause such a shocking scandal, how will Envision explain it to the public?"
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand indifferently, as if she didn't care about Pearlman's life or death at all.
"Besides, who are you? You're negotiating with us alone. Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"
As she spoke, a sneer appeared on her lips.
Hearing this, Nekomata pretended to smile deeply and said, "Oh, I'm really sorry. I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Nekomiya Matana, you can call me Nekomata."
"To be honest, I'm from the Red Fang Gang."
The soldiers frowned when they heard this.
"Red...Red Fang Gang!?"
"Is it the Red Fang Gang that's been committing so many crimes recently? But didn't their leader surrender himself, and the remaining members have been apprehended?"
"What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?"
Maoyou continued, standing under the spotlight: "Since I came out to negotiate, I naturally brought the corresponding bargaining chips."
"The remnants of the Red Fang Gang, White Lao Miguel's right-hand man, Nekomata, are holding the residents of the old capital hostage and violently blocking the construction."
"The bandit leader, Mao, was apprehended by Yuanjing Company. Doesn't this excuse make sense?"
As she spoke, she forced herself to purse her lips, and the last trace of fear in her heart disappeared.
For the family of Canvas Lane and for the safety of my partners.
It’s worth dying here!
Baimu…you must miss me.
She quickly put away the faint sadness on her face and put on an expression of having given it her all.
Sarah watched coldly, "Is this some kind of performance? Sacrificing yourself? That's truly noble."
Nekomata: "Well, as long as you agree, I will surrender now, and Mr. Pearlman can return safely."
She took out a short knife and gently pressed it against Pearlman's neck, "Otherwise."
Before she could finish, she heard the sound of a gun being loaded.
Miss Sarah gently pulled the bolt of her pistol, raised the muzzle, and shot at the cat again.
The bullet passed by Nekomata and hit Perlman's forehead, leaving an anesthetic needle.
The cat looked at it again in surprise.
Sarah raised the gun coldly, "Don't worry, he's not dead. There's anesthetic in the syringe."
"Let me teach you a lesson. Before negotiating, at least confirm the value of your bargaining chips."
"Unfortunately, Mr. Pearlman's life is not worth as much to us as you think."
As she finished speaking, the soldiers behind her raised their rifles and aimed at her.
Nekomata's pupils shrank. At this moment, she could feel the terrifying suffocating feeling of the gun pointed at her. As long as the soldiers pulled the trigger, she would die here in less than a second.
