[If you want to save people, come here alone. If I find out that you brought other people with you, I will have to start with your wife. ]

Xie Qingxuan glanced at the message sent by the other party and walked out of the factory.

The location sent by the other party is about twenty kilometers away from the factory.

It takes about ten minutes to get there from here.

Soon, the two people in Xie Qingxing's car got out.

The two watched Xie Qingxing drive away and turned to deal with the police approaching from behind.

"Mr. Xie, what are you going to do?" someone asked.

"My husband has something urgent to deal with, so I'm sorry to bother you guys."

"Don't worry, this is our duty." The policeman looked at the two men and said, "Mr. Xie has driven away. Do you want to go back with us?"

The two of them smiled and nodded when they heard this, "That's troublesome."

……

Footsteps were heard again in the corridor.

Lu Ning opened his eyes in the dark and estimated the time.

About every half an hour, someone would pass by the door.

It's said to be passing by, but in fact it's more like patrolling.

The windows in the utility room had already been sealed, and the only exit in the entire room was the door in front.

But there were people guarding outside the door, and Lu Ning couldn't be sure how many people were there, so the possibility of escaping was slim.

"Lu Ning, are you still awake?" Suddenly, Chu Ling's voice came from the darkness.

Chu Ling's voice was deeper and hoarser than before, and it seemed that his cold had worsened.

Lu Ning wanted to respond, but stopped the moment she opened her mouth.

She did not respond, intending to see Chu Ling and the man's reactions.

Chu Ling called out twice more, but there was still no response from Lu Ning.

Chu Ling was a little nervous. She turned around and tried to grab the man next to her, but she touched nothing.

At some point, the man was no longer with Chu Ling.

Where did he go?

Chu Ling was a little panicked. She ignored Lu Ning and turned to call the man.

After shouting for a while, the other party, like Lu Ning, did not respond at all.

Lu Ning wanted to hear clearly what Chu Ling was shouting, but unfortunately Chu Ling's voice was as soft as a mosquito, and she couldn't hear it unless she got closer and listened carefully.

Chu Ling's cold is probably getting worse.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Ning heard a collision sound, and then something was knocked over.

Chu Ling staggered and groped, trying to find other people, but before she could move a few steps, she bumped into the cabinet and fell to the ground.

Lu Ning frowned and wanted to help the man up.

But before she could get close, a cold hand suddenly approached Lu Ning from behind.

The hand fell on Lu Ning's shoulder and patted her hard.

Lu Ning subconsciously wanted to take action.

"Shh, don't make any noise." The man's voice came from behind Lu Ning, and the hand pressing on her in the dark relaxed a little.

Lu Ning raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of questions.

However, the man just tapped Lu Ning's shoulder with his fingertips and pointed in the direction of the door.

"I have a way to get out, but I need someone's cooperation." The man spoke again, his intentions obvious.

He now needs someone to cooperate with him. As for the partner, he gave up the sick Chu Ling and chose Lu Ning.

"Aren't you and Chu Ling together? Why didn't you choose her?" Lu Ning wanted to ask loudly, but at this distance, if the other party got angry, it would be inconvenient for Lu Ning to take action. What's more, she was also curious about what the other party wanted to do.

"Because you are more suitable than her, and you don't want to be trapped here to death." The man lowered his voice a few degrees.

If Chu Ling hadn't been calling out in a low voice beside her, Lu Ning would have almost thought that this was a play between two people.

Lu Ning reached out and pushed away the man's hand on her shoulder, "No need, I'll wait for my family to redeem me."

man:"……"

"Aren't you afraid that they will go back on their word and kill you?"

"It's okay, I believe my family will come to rescue me."

After saying that, Lu Ning suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Chu Ling.

"Chu Ling, I'm here, how are you?"

Chu Ling, who was looking for someone, suddenly heard Lu Ning's voice, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Lu Ning, Lu Ning, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Lu Ning said and walked towards Chu Ling in the direction of the voice.

When Lu Ning walked over, she clearly heard the doctor's sneer from the man behind her.

"System, Chu Ling's taste in men is really not very good."

[Host, you are still in the mood to care about others, but you can't protect yourself. ]

Lu Ning: “…” Thanks for the reminder, she knew her situation.

[When does the host plan to save himself?] The system has obviously gotten used to Lu Ning relying on himself when things get tough. In its mind, Lu Ning will probably find a way to escape soon.

As for the other two people, the system couldn’t guess Lu Ning’s plan for the time being, but it had a hunch that its host probably wouldn’t leave the two people here.

"Save yourself? Do you think I'm capable of saving myself in my current situation? I just regret not asking that man how he planned to escape." Lu Ning supported herself with her hands, she walked up to Chu Ling and touched her forehead.

It’s really hot.

"Chu Ling, you have a fever."

Chu Ling blinked. No wonder she felt so weak and couldn’t even hear clearly.

"You need to take medicine and receive treatment." Lu Ning said, turning around and looking at the darkness behind him.

"Sir, are you still going to hide there and take care of yourself?"

The man raised his head when he heard the voice, and he walked towards the two of them. Finally, he placed a hand on Chu Ling's face and whispered a few words of comfort.

Lu Ning didn't hear clearly what the man said, but Chu Ling quickly calmed down.

Or maybe Chu Ling simply doesn't have the energy to do anything right now.

"The method I'm talking about is actually very simple. It requires someone with quick reactions to attract the attention of those outside the door, and the others can take the opportunity to escape." The man spoke, and this time he did not deliberately lower his voice.

Lu Ning raised an eyebrow. This was a shitty idea.

Sacrifice one in exchange for another chance to escape, and then wait for the person who escaped to call someone to rescue him?

I'm afraid that by the time the rescuers arrive, the ones left behind will have already died.

Lu Ning: "Are you going to let me be the one to lead those people away?"

"Among the three of us, you are the most suitable." The man did not seem embarrassed at all, and his tone even had a sense of matter-of-factness.

"Instead of the three of us being trapped here to death, why not give it a try?" The man tried to persuade Lu Ning, but Lu Ning acted as if he couldn't hear or see anything.

In short, Lu Ning is not going to cooperate.

When the man's persuasion failed, he tried to threaten her.

It’s a pity that he threatened the wrong person. Lu Ning always responds to soft tactics rather than hard ones.

If anyone dares to threaten her, he must be prepared to be beaten.

A few minutes later, the blade in Lu Ning's hand brushed past the man's ear.

The man was quiet.

Perhaps he finally realized that Lu Ning was not someone to be trifled with, and he finally gave up his unrealistic ideas.

Just as the scene became quiet, the noise outside the door suddenly became chaotic.
