Chapter 681
Atuta picked up his cell phone, only to find the call had been cut off. He wasn’t sure whether Mo Jingshen hung up or there was something wrong with the phone.
He looked back and gave an impatient look at the two men, who rushed to lift Ji Nuan off the ground and carry her to the only metal shelf in the dark warehouse.
She had just been put on the metal shelf, and the cold touch of it made her shudder. As she lay there, by the light of the glare flashlight, she saw a table beside her, on which lay several items.
A syringe filled with something.
A knife and a gun.
A tall black medicine bottle.
And rope.
And some other items she could not even imagine.
Were they going to torture her?
Ji Nuan looked at these items stiffly. Atuta came over. When he saw fear gradually appear in her eyes, he said coldly, “If Mo Jingshen fails to come here by noon tomorrow, I’ll make you try each of these beautiful things every five minutes.”
With that, Atuta picked up the syringe and casually played with it. “Do you know what it is?”
She stared at the syringe in his hand and her hair stood on end as she saw a few drops of liquid squeezed out of the needle. She slowly curled up on the icy metal frame, afraid he would inject the liquid into her body.
But Atuta still took the syringe and put the sharp needle close to her arm. When he saw the panic in her eyes, he sneered. “What’s in this syringe is one of the world’s most difficult drugs to quit in the last two decades. Do you know how many people have ruined their homes and lost everything because of it, and how many people have killed themselves because they can’t quit it…”
Hearing his words, Ji Nuan widened her eyes in shock. Atuta glanced sideways at her darkly. “You gotta pay for pissing me off. Guess what punishment I will give you?”
Ji Nuan took a deep breath and desperately tried to break free from him. Atuta sneered, enjoyed her desperate struggle, continued to press her wrist hard, and was about to insert the needle into her skin.
“No! No…” Ji Nuan struggled hard.
“Stay still! Otherwise, I can’t promise I won’t take your life right now! Bitch!” Atuta pressed her body down forcibly and inserted the needle into her arm. Ji Nuan let out a low cry of pain.
Just before Atuta injected the medicine into her body, suddenly, a strange beeping alarm sounded outside the warehouse. Atuta suddenly froze and then turned with a jerk to look at the two other men in the warehouse. “What happened? How could they locate the signal so quickly? Have they hacked our signal blocking device? Even the latest blocking device from Britain can’t stop those bastards of XI Base?!”
The two men also panicked when they heard the beeping alarm and turned to look at Atuta whose face was all black in anger. “Boss, since the signal has been blocked, I’m afraid they will come here soon. Shine develops very well in the technology domain and XI Base also has many experts on military technology. They located the signal faster than we can imagine. What do we do now? Are we leaving with this woman or using her as a hostage…”
Atuta took the needle out, coldly stared at Ji Nuan who had been soaked with cold sweat, and said harshly, “Take her away!”
With that, Atuta quickly turned and walked out. Ji Nuan hadn’t figured out what had happened but only knew that that drug wasn’t injected into her body. The signal blocking device was hacked? These are areas she had very little knowledge.
The two men came up to lift her up, put her on one of the men’s shoulders, and walked out.
“Where are you taking me…” Ji Nuan was hanging on their shoulders in pain and weakly. Her voice was feeble and there was only the color of blood before her. She seemed to be falling into hell, without knowing when the suffering would end.
But now the only thing in her mind was that… she couldn’t let Mo Jingshen come here… she couldn’t…
Let him be threatened because of her.
She couldn’t put him in danger.
For a very long time, Ji Nuan couldn’t understand why Mo Jingshen forced her away in order to change the course of her life, why he resorted to those cruel means to drive her away from him, and why he bore all the pain alone. She hated that he never considered her feelings.
But now in such a situation, Ji Nuan suddenly knew the reason.
It turned out that when you truly loved a person, you would rather bear all the pain for them, and bear everything by yourself than let them suffer with you.
At this moment, she finally understood his love for her.
He just wanted her to live.
Because he loved her, he bore all the pain for her; because he loved her, he forced her to leave, enjoy life, and grow up; because he loved her, he dealt with everything that she couldn’t manage without letting her know.
In order to let her live at ease, he got through all the hardships silently on his own, forcing himself not to see her or even call her.
Just like she was now.
She would rather he didn’t know anything, would rather he didn’t hear her voice, and would rather he didn’t risk his life because of her.
She just wanted him to live.
She just wanted him not to be threatened.
Ji Nuan didn’t know why the three men were in a panic, but after she was carried out, her head was suddenly covered with a black cloth. It seemed that a car drove over and the two carrying her opened a door of the car and threw her in.
Ji Nuan fell into the car and had no strength to sit up. She had terrible pain all over her body. The back of her shoulder seemed no longer to bleed, but her head ached like hell and her ears were ringing because she was hit hard on the head repeatedly.
She could only tell that these men were anxious to drive away, but couldn’t understand what they were talking about.
Because they were now speaking Khmer to each other, not the broken Chinese or English she could understand
A man who was driving shouted in Cambodian, “Boss, we kidnapped this woman to threaten that Control, but if he has found our hiding place and is coming after us, this woman is a ticking time bomb for us. I think we might as well throw her down now!”
