41 48 Hours In Hell (1/2)

When Li Xiuying eventually roused from unconsciousness, she found she couldn't move her arms or legs; she was on her side staring at what looked like an abandoned warehouse. Her arms were tied behind her back and her legs were tied together at the ankles. There was a dry rag tied over her mouth and nose.

Whilst scanning the area with her eyes she saw that she wasn't alone, there were five other men in the room with her. They all were large and bulky with tattoos plastered on their bodies, some had tattoos on their faces. They exuded malice.

Li Xiuying tried to speak, her voice cracked: ”Who are you? What do you want with me?”

One of the men walked towards her. He had a dragon spiralling from the left side of his face around his neck and down beneath his top. He gave her a sinister smile: ”Well look who decided to join us.” He jerked off the rag from her face.

Li Xiuying quivered: ”What, What do you want with me?”

Dragon tattoo: ”Mmm what does anyone want; money of course. You're worth quite a lot Doctor Li.” He put emphasis on doctor.

Another of the men who had a long scar running from his forehead of the right hand side across his face to the corner of his left jaw spoke ”You woke up just in time. We're about to have a little chat with your family.”

He called a number and put it on loudspeaker. Ring Ring, Ring Ring.

A sickly sweet woman's voice rang out: ”Hello.”

Face scar spoke : ”Li Yu Yan. Keep quiet and listen. I have your beloved cousin, Dr. Li Xiuying with me, I want 5 million cash in unmarked bills dropped off at Zhanqiao Pier at 3 am. Come alone, don't even think about contacting the police; you won't be able to deal with the consequences if you do. If you don't deliver the money by 3 am we can't ensure that little Dr. Li will be as intact as she currently is. HE HE HE.” His name was full of venom.

Li Yu Yan's voice held fear and worry as she spoke:” I I I, How do I know she's still alive? I demand to talk to her!”

The Face scar put the phone next to Li Xiuying.

Li Xiuying screamed: ”Yu Yan It's me, get help, get..”

SLAP!

The long haired man gave Li Xiuying a heavy slap across her face.

Li Yu Yan panicked voice screeched: ”Xiuying, Xiuying!”

Li Xiuying spat out blood, the inside of her cheek was cut, and the corner of her lip was busted.

Face scar spoke into the phone again: ”3 Am Zhanqiao Pier.” He then put the phone down.

One of the men left to go and collect the money. Then there were four.

Li Xiuying just lay on the ground. None of the men approached her but they sat in a large circle around her, watching her like some sort of caged animal. All exits around her were blocked, she couldn't escape.

At 3 am Face scar received a call.

Face scar listened to the voice on the other end of the line and then spoke: ”Well I guess we're having fun tonight then. Yeah, Yeah, we'll make sure she's conscious when you arrive. You'll get your turn. ” He put down the phone and slowly stood from his chair and walked towards LI Xiuying.

Face scar: ”Well doctor Li, it seems your family haven't been able to collect the money, they wanted more time. So we get to have a little fun with you while we wait.”

Li Xiuying screamed at them: ”You're lying! Let me go! Let Me go!”

How could they not be able to gather 5 Million! Anyone of her cards had over that amount.

The men all approached Li Xiuying with laughter in their eyes. Dragon tattoo and another man with a samurai type hairstyle licked their lips in anticipation. Li Xiuying tried to back away from the approaching meaty hands.

She screamed whilst trying to move away: ”Don't touch me! Don't touch me! You're lying. You have the money let me go!!” Tears escaped her eyes.

Dragon tattoo sinisterly chuckled: ”I like my women with a little bit of fight in them.”

Li Xiuying tried to fight back, she even managed to bite one of their hands, but her face was met with a vicious slap.

Li Xiuying screamed and sobbed: ”Help, NO NO, No! I can get you the money, please let me go. please.”
