Chapter 25 (1/2)
Zheng Tan eventually decided to head over to the warehouse
Wei Ling saw the black cat run towards that direction, so he quickly focused on the men behind the wall With the cat over there, Walnut should notice as going on outside
Zheng Tan looked at the exhaust fan It was a bit high; he couldn't juround He cli next to the wall and used it to ju
He looked through the gaps…There was nothing in there except broken stuff that was abandoned
The roo Tan surveyed the room after he jumped in The door was ja bottles Otherwise, someone would have come in here to steal the bottles and sell them for money He didn't see any insects, probably due to the scattered preservatives around the room
Though the door was shut, there was a hole in the wall that Zheng Tan reckoned he could just about squeeze through It was a bit difficult, but he made it
That was the thing with cats Their bones and lia Unfortunately, getting covered in dust was unavoidable
Outside the s Tan shook the dust off his fur and looked around This here they actually stored things in the warehouse, except it was eht was diround The beams were not fro next to here
His vision was blocked by all the junk laying around and his sense of s to rely on
He traced the sounds he heard and navigated through all the junk If it were a hu Tan took advantage of his body to move quickly
The warehouse was quite large; it took him a while before he traced the voices he heard to the source
The area was cleared of junk and three people were lying on the ground 'Walnut' was looking around for ropes to tie the hands and feet of those people Theirnoises
Walnut was not wearing his police uniform today, probably to not alarm his suspects
Next to hi by her looks, she allasses with a jacket that was cinched at the waist and showed off her curves If this was the wo this average-college-student-like kid with the ruthless murderer
However, you can't judge a book by its cover Zheng Tan had learned that fro harmless did not equal actually harmless
Zheng Tan did go out of hiding immediately He stayed behind a wooden board and watched the wouard up too He never turned his back against her
Zheng Tan saw Walnut take out his phone after tying the three guys on the floor
”No signal?”
Walnut frowned and looked around He held his phone up and paced in a circle He still didn't get signal, so he decided to go out to taketwo steps, he turned around and said to the girl who didn't move:
”Follow me”
The girl still did not speak but followed him obediently However, she made sure to stay a meter or two behind hi to psychologist
Not only did Walnut have his guard up, she had hers up as well
Zheng Tan followed theh the piles of junk He had to be fast and silent He had to pause once in awhile to calculate his next ain after every pause, he was fast
It was like when cat owners sometimes play with their cats They would see their cats seven or eight meters away, but in a blink of the eye, the cats would be only five meters away
Zheng Tan did not know that he looked awfully like Sheriff when he hunted He followed his prey in silence, waiting for his chance
There was less junk near the door; maybe the three people who came in first had already cleared the path Walnut did not have a hard ti out He only had to push away obstacles in their path He used these chances to check up on the girl behind him
As Walnut was picking up a wooden board, Zheng Tan saw that the girl, who looked like a regular college student, took a tube like thing out of her sleeve and started to walk towards Walnut
Zheng Tan instinctively felt that the thing she had was dangerous
This was the chance he aiting for
Keeping his eyes on the girl, Zheng Tan shot towards them
The girl held onto the syringe in her hand She had a cold glealasses Just as she was about to succeed, she felt a strong force hit her in the chest and lost her balance The syringe was knocked out of the way
Before she could realize what just happened, Walnut, alking in front of her, caught her arm and pinned her onto a wood beam nearby
Bang!
The girl hit the bealasses flew off
Zheng Tan sat next to a board after his successful strike He flexed his paws and thought that she was not that well-endowed in the chest area It didn't feel that great
Walnut took out some ropes He had re for it He didn't think, however, that he would need it so soon
”I've being watching you So this is how you strike” Walnut looked at the syringe that got knocked onto the board It had been e would shoot out the needle head through pressure The needle probably contained some sort of tranquilizer
”I see you're all done here” Wei Ling, who just cah asaid
Zheng Tan traced his voice Behind Wei Ling was a large hich he re worse, the as at least fiveco any noise?
Walnut, however, was not surprised to see Wei Ling ”Thanks to the black cat here, I escaped being hit by her syringe Didn't think she would have soed
Wei Ling looked down at the person who reht ”I told you this woman was suspicious Test her DNA, it would match that of the culprit”
