I Am Extraordinary Alone-Chapter 633 - 631 Evacuation

"Feeling a bit more alert now?" Wang Ye shook Leng Kai.

Leng Kai spit out some saliva and took some gauze out of his backpack, wrapping the wound on his forehead.

At that moment, the Invisibility Woman was being pinned to the ground by Wang Mingxue.

Wang Ye walked over and, without a word, gave her a kick in the face. The woman’s eyes rolled back, and she fell into a semi-conscious state.

"Don’t kick her to death! I’ve got questions," Wang Mingxue said.

After saying that, she grabbed the woman’s hair and demanded, "Where are the others? Where are your accomplices waiting to rendezvous with you!?"

"Ugh...uh..." The woman was clearly dazed by Wang Ye’s kick and couldn’t say anything.

Wang Ye spread his hands, took off his short-sleeved shirt, wrung out the dirty water, and then used the shirt like a towel to wipe his hair.

"No need to ask anymore. I bet they’re definitely ambushed outside, waiting for us like sitting ducks," Leng Kai shook his head and said.

"Then kill her. We’ve made such a big commotion already. I think we should retreat now, since the mission is likely a failure," Wang Ye said.

"Are we giving up just like that?" Wang Mingxue was taken aback.

"It’s not giving up, it’s laying low for now. We need to find D, ask about George’s situation, that’s right... Leng Kai, how did they capture you?" Wang Ye explained.

"There’s no need to look for D anymore. They killed him. One of them can read minds, they extracted all the intel from D, and from me as well. They know what we’re looking for, and also that you were here waiting. Wang Ye, if you hadn’t actively searched for them, maybe this wouldn’t have happened!" Leng Kai said, visibly irritated.

Wang Ye shook his head and replied, "That’s a separate issue. If they could find D, that means D was already exposed. They would have inevitably found him and you, then gotten all the intelligence."

Leng Kai thought about it and realized it was true, but he was still frustrated and, helplessly, turned away, standing with his hands on his hips in silence.

"What’s the deal with George?" Wang Mingxue inquired.

"We’ve lost contact with him, we don’t know where he is; even D couldn’t reach him," Leng Kai replied.

"Could it be a trap?!" Wang Mingxue suggested.

"Stop it, I don’t think it’s a trap. It’s more like an accident. That George doesn’t have experience in this kind of thing, how would he manage to get his ’black medicine’ canisters out of this building? Not to mention, he wouldn’t leave behind the gold. He must have been discovered halfway, either detained or killed outright," Wang Ye said.

"Let’s exit here first, get to a safe location and see if there’s a way to get in touch... forget it... there’s simply no way," Leng Kai said.

He sighed, picked up the backpack from the ground, and said, "Get ready, they still have people outside, we haven’t escaped the danger yet."

Wang Ye pulled out his handgun, shook the water out of the barrel, and aimed it at the head of the Invisibility Woman.

"Wait! Don’t kill me... I can tell you about the Foundation!" the Invisibility Woman suddenly said.

"Oh, your organization must really hate you by now," Wang Mingxue remarked.

"She might be lying," Wang Ye said.

Leng Kai shook his head and commented, "The one in the car with glasses also said that they work for a foundation, but I don’t know which one. They seemed to claim they were saving the world too."

"We could collaborate... Our goals should be aligned," the Invisibility Woman suggested.

"We don’t partner with people of unknown origin," Wang Ye replied.

"But we worked well together before! In the car town," the Invisibility Woman hurriedly said.

"You should have died back then," Wang Ye disengaged the safety on his gun.

"Wait! Wait!" Invisibility Woman urgently exclaimed again.

At that moment, a series of stumbling noises came from the elevator door at the staircase, making everyone tense up as they all turned to look in that direction.

Wang Mingxue still had a grip on the woman, drawing a pistol with her right hand and aiming it at the inner passage while Wang Ye and Leng Kai set up their rifles at the corner of the wall.

However, they saw a white man in a blue shirt dragging a small trolley out of the industrial elevator, which was carrying something iron-grey that resembled an oxygen tank.

He pulled the trolley out of the elevator, then reentered and emerged again, huffing and puffing as he carried two large bags out. From the way he walked, one could tell that these two bags were quite heavy.

The white man busied himself with his task, unaware that at the far end of the corridor, around the corner, four people were holding their breath and watching him.

The man paused for a moment, and just as he turned to walk down the passage, he spotted Wang Ye and Leng Kai’s group and jumped in fright.

"Don’t move! Don’t move!" Leng Kai shouted.

Wang Ye stepped forward, stepping on the head of Invisibility Woman firmly and dislocating her jaw which caused her to faint. He then moved forward with his gun and demanded, "Your name! Say it quick!"

"I! I... my name is George..." George stammered, too scared to make any sudden movements.

"George?! Oh! Is it really you?!" Wang Mingxue stood up from above the woman and moved to the forefront.

"Who are you?" George asked.

"We were sent by D to get you out, you’re late! You didn’t meet up with D!" Leng Kai accused.

"It wasn’t my fault. His butler came by asking a lot of questions about Black Medicine, I couldn’t get away, and you can’t just text that kind of stuff these days; you have to understand," George explained.

"Regardless, this is His Black Medicine? You’d better not have gotten it wrong," Wang Ye said as he inspected the Black Medicine canister.

"Absolutely not, it’s been stored separately. Shouldn’t we be leaving now? Where’s D?" George asked.

"D is dead," Leng Kai stated.

"Ah... oh, I’m so sorry..." George said.

"Enough of that, we’ve got both the Black Medicine and the person. It’s time to evacuate, but there might be an ambush outside," Wang Mingxue said.

Wang Ye approached the unconscious woman, drew his pistol, and fired three shots at her head. Bullets pierced her temples and rolled out from her cheek, taking chunks of flesh and blood with the casings. freёnovelkiss.com

The sound of gunfire made George somewhat uneasy.

"To eliminate future threats," Wang Ye said.

They checked the canisters for their airtightness and glanced at the bags containing gold. The two black travel bags were filled with gold bricks, not the small bars from banks but brick-sized gold, with about 20 bricks in a bag.

Wang Mingxue and Leng Kai each shouldered a bag, George was in charge of the Black Medicine canister, and Wang Ye, fully armed, scouted ahead.

The four moved silently and cautiously out of the passage, pausing at its entrance.

Waste water flowed beside them into the swampy terrain. The black soil was barren, and even the mud seemed hard and unyielding. Wang Ye still remembered the path they took getting there, but now, with heavy loads to carry, he had to find an easier route while staying vigilant for possible ambushes.

Upon exiting the drainage outlet, Wang Ye felt a burst of muggy heat outside. The temperature was noticeably higher than before, as if a source of heat had once been present.

He was just about to find an easier path when he saw that the marsh outside seemed to have been flattened by some force. The damp shallows had all evaporated, leaving only hard, pitted mud, and their pickup truck was conveniently located a hundred meters away.

"Have we lucked out?" Wang Mingxue wondered.

"I don’t believe in luck," Wang Ye replied.

Despite this, the four of them didn’t find anything amiss with the pickup truck, so they loaded the canisters and bags of gold onto the truck’s bed. Then, while still undetected, they started the vehicle and left the area.
