Chapter 65 - Escape (1/2)

”Wang Ming, stop.”

”STOP!” Qiao Meng shouted into his ears. The man was dead. She had checked his pulse, and he had none.

Wang Ming had pumped the man's c.h.e.s.t for the last few minutes, but he still didn't breathe. Seeing the tears in on his face, Qiao Meng sympathized with him. Qiao Meng had killed no one, but she knew from young that as a police officer you would need to hurt and maybe kill people. But Wang Ming is only a normal person, but now he had killed a person for the first time. She could definitely understand his stress and sorrow.

Grabbing his face so they saw each other eye to eye, Qiao Meng kissed Wang Ming on the lips. It was her way of thanking him, but also to get his attention.

”Wang Ming, I know it's hard for you now, I understand. But we need to get out of here, you killed in self defence. Think if you hadn't attacked him he would have killed all of us. Now we need to focus on getting out of here. Remember, you didn't kill him, you saved me and Louzheng.”

”Thank you Qiao Meng, I know what I need to do now.”

Wang Ming still felt shook up for killing a man. He knew he needed to focus on the task up ahead, to get them out of there. But his body didn't listen to him, his tears kept streaming down, his body shook. But he finally calmed down when Qiao Meng kissed him. He didn't expect her to do it, not in a situation like this. But looking into her beautiful eyes and feeling her lips on his, he knew what he needed to do to protect her.'

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Wang Ming grabbed the corpse and put it in the secret room. Then he walked back out, but before he did it, he took the earpiece. The man had and put it in his ear. He also took the transmitter and strapped it on his waist. Now he could listen in on his enemies.

”I'll be back, I have another plan now. The man I killed, has killed all of Gang Gou's underlings. I saw four other men with him. If I can sneak out and take them out one after another, then we can get out of here safely. I'll take the baseball bat with me this time, so I can easily knock them out with it. I also found out, Gang Gou is from the HouZi Gang, they colluded with someone else to kill me.”

Qiao Meng didn't want Wang Ming to risk it, as this fight had been way too close already. If he didn't ambush them, then they would just shoot him. But they didn't have any other option, unless.

”Wang Ming, do you have your phone?”

”Yes, but I checked earlier there's no signal in here, I called for reinforcements before I entered the factory. But we can't just wait for them, I will proceed with my plan. They will find out soon that one of their men is missing, like how this man found the room it's bound that another person will find this room. But if I can take out the threat, then we don't have any worries.”

What Wang Ming didn't say to Qiao Meng, was that if she hadn't been here, if he wasn't worried about her. He would have waited for the reinforcements before even entering the factory. But if it wasn't for Qiao Meng, then maybe Louzheng would have been dead when he arrived.

Since he has two other lives depending on him, he couldn't risk it by waiting for his reinforcements anymore. He would need to go on the offence, especially not after he killed one of their men.

Sneaking his way to the door again, this time he didn't hear anyone talking, not even on the communications device. It seemed like they would only talk with each other if they had crucial information. Peeking out the door Wang Ming didn't see anyone, he could hear someone walking around but not see anyone.

Hurriedly Wang Ming took the chance and moved quickly towards a stack of boxes a few meters up ahead, luckily in this room there were boxes everywhere which could give him cover. But as he dashed to the boxes, he saw the back of a man he had seen earlier he recognized the clothing. He had on the same clothes as the man he had killed earlier.

Tightening the hand holding the baseball bat, Wang Ming hit the man with the baseball bat the moment he turned his back towards him. Hitting the man square in the face with the baseball bat, though what Wang Ming hadn't accounted for was how much force he needed to use.

He had used too much force, so the man didn't fall to the floor but crashed into the boxes behind him, making loud noises. His communication device instantly buzzed with activity, One demanded to know what had happened but no one could give him an answer.

”Find out what happened. Gather back up at the primary room, I think there's a rat somewhere.”

Since Wang Ming knew they would come he had the upper hand for now, they're five but he's taken out two already leaving only three left. His best bet would be to knock them out separately before they gathered up.
