The Black Swan Behind (Beauty of Fire)-Chapter 250

250 Become a Kidnapping Victim

“Since you don’t know where the exit is, how about we take you there? We just happen to be heading outside,” A spiky-haired man asked.

“Am I not going to bother you guys?” Emma asked hesitantly.

The men shook their heads. “Of course not. We parked near the north exit.” One of them answered.

“Well, okay then,” Emma said.

Then Emma started to walk with the four men towards the exit which she believed was not the real exit. She basically didn’t know where they were going to take her.

However, Emma was sure that she wasn’t the only one trapped by these Beast Empire members. Among the thousands of girls who came to the concert, there must be at least more than one person who got caught in the trap of these assholes.

“Is your house around here?” One of the men asked.

Emma shook her head. “It’s far from here; near the harbour area,”

“Alright. Anyways, sorry, but may we know your name?”

.....

“Sure. No need to apologize. My name is Nadine.” Emma answered.

Then, the men one by one introduced themself so they would look friendlier. And of course, they all used fake names. After the chit-chat was over, Emma was immediately busy with her cell phone.

“You’d better not walk around while playing on your phone. It’s a bit dangerous.” One of the men said while exchanging glances with his friends.

“Ah.. It’s only some second. I’m texting the taxi driver that I’m on my way out. He’s a little impatient,” Emma answered with puppy eyes before putting her phone back in her bag to avoid suspicion from the men.

In fact, Emma had just texted Rachel about what she was doing. She also turned on a small, square-shaped device the size of a matchbox made by Kathy that could track her whereabouts live. The device was always carried by each member of the Black Swan every time they go outside.

But unfortunately, before Emma was about to send a message to Calvin that she had urgent business and had to go home first, the damn men made her cancel it.

Emma knew that the men were afraid of her contacting her friends or family. If she spent a too long time with her cell phone, the men might snatch it from her.

As Emma had expected, the men took her to a darker and quieter area.

“That’s the gate,” One of the men pointed at a tall metal fence with a small door.

“It doesn’t look like a gate,” Emma said with an awkward small laugh.

The man nodded once. “The north gate is small. But we do park the car here. That’s our car,” He pointed to a minivan parked a few meters from the door.

“But my taxi isn’t there. I think I’ll have to call the taxi driver to come to this gate. Maybe he’s at another exit,” Emma muttered to herself. 𝘧𝐫𝑒𝗲𝑤ℯ𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝒆l. c𝚘𝓂

Then she again opened the sling bag that was wrapped around her shoulder to her waist and took out her cell phone from inside. But secretly, she also took the tracking device made by Poppy which she hid between her palm and her cellphone.

Seeing the girl take out her cell phone again, the men glanced at each other and nodded. Incidentally, they were pretty close to the van now.

Then, one of the men slowed his pace so that he left a bit behind without his potential victim noticing. He took out a bottle of chloroform and a handkerchief from his waist bag.

Emma walked while looking at her phone again. But besides that, her eyes were also directed to the ground. She noticed the shadows of the people around her because the dim light of the street lamp was coming from behind them.

As soon as Emma looked at a shadow and the sound of rough footsteps rapidly approaching behind her back, she immediately stopped and turned back as if she wanted to speak to the men walking slightly behind her.

“Guys..” Emma said as she turned around.

But before her eyes, one of the men just stood right behind her and grabbed her swiftly.

Emma screamed as the four men tried to hold back her body when she was about to run away. Intentionally, Emma loosened her strength but still tried to escape them. Her eyes were still on the man’s hand holding a handkerchief. If she were to pass out, then her plans would fall apart in a bad way.

After struggling for a few seconds with a small force, Emma immediately released a little of her original strength to get out of the men’s trap.

As soon as she managed to escape, she ran towards the large tree line that grew along the path. She immediately dropped her cell phone under the trees and quickly put the tracking device in the pocket of her jeans.

Then Emma allowed herself to be caught by them. The man who had been holding a handkerchief that had been given the chloroform immediately covered Emma’s mouth and nose with it.

As soon as she was caught, Emma held her breath. She knew that she would soon be sedated, but she would follow the men’s game. Three seconds after the handkerchief stuck to her nose, she quickly pretended to be unconscious.

After their victim finally lost consciousness, one of the men hurriedly carried her towards the car.

“Hey! Her phone dropped there,” One of them said as pointed to the cell phone under the tree.

“Just leave it. Get out of here quickly!” His friend answered while walking briskly towards the door. He kept looking around to prevent anyone from catching up on their action.

In the car were two other girls who had their hands and feet tied. One of them was still unconscious like Emma. The others just woke up but couldn’t do anything because they were tied up, their mouths were covered with duct tape and their eyes were covered with cloth.

Emma’s legs and hands were quickly tied by the man who had been carrying her.

“This is amazing! Today’s catch is a great product! We will definitely get a bonus from Boss!” One of the men said while laughing happily.

“We will have fun after this!” His friend said.

“I think this is enough. We can’t carry more than this. The car won’t fit,”

His friend nodded. “Then Rendy and I will go look for Jimmy and Tom,”

“I saw Tom talking to a girl. Maybe they’ll bring another girl here,”

“Alright. Be careful. The venue is still quite busy,” said the man sitting behind the stirring wheel.

After that, two of the four men left the van. After waiting for about fifteen minutes, the other two men they were waiting for appeared.

The driver man immediately unlocked the door so his two friends could enter. As expected, they did bring in an extra girl. It was the girl Emma had seen chatting with one of the assholes in the seat near hers.

After the unconscious girl was tied up, the driver started the engine. Then the minivan drove up.

The muffled cries of the girls were getting louder and louder. This meant that almost all of them have woken up. Emma opened her eyes after almost half an hour of pretending to be unconscious. For some reason, her eyes and the girl who had just arrived were not blindfolded. Perhaps the men had run out of cloth to blindfold the other two victims.

In the car were four tied-up girls and four male kidnappers. Two of the men were sitting in the back of the car that had all the seats removed to guard their catches.

Emma pretended to cry hysterically, just like the other girls. However, she also realized that she wasn’t good at crying acting. Her tears couldn’t come out. So, she had to cover it up by screaming and groaning. Fortunately, the two criminals sitting in front of her didn’t seem suspicious of her at all.

With the duct tape stuck to Emma’s mouth, she couldn’t scream much and it actually made it a bit difficult for her to breathe. She looked at the girls on her right and left. They must have had a lot more trouble breathing than her because they were really crying.

Seeing the girls crying over their fate and experiencing the kidnapping process for herself, Emma was furious. She couldn’t imagine how painful it was for the girls who had long been captured and had to work forcibly for that bastard group called Beast Empire. She also continued to think about the fate of Crystal, her ballet classmate, whose whereabouts and fate was still unknown.

Because the concert started at night, the event ended when it was very late. The van drove down a quiet road. But they did not know a group of motorbikes heading towards them with the help of a GPS connected to a tracking device.

“Someone’s following us!” The exclamation of the driver man took his friends by surprise.

“What?!”

They immediately looked at the car’s right and left rearview mirrors because all the windows of the car had been painted white. From the rearview mirrors, they could see several motorbikes following their car.
