Chapter 389 Dare to Steal My People?
"Huh... this kid bought so much food in one go. I'm afraid most of it will still have to be put in the refrigerator after I go back."
As agreed, Mikael put a lot of food back into the car. He closed the car door softly. The sunset had already exited the stage, and the night had completely fallen. A ray of cold wind rushed along the street, raising the broken hair on Mikael's forehead a little.
However, the wind is not just chilly, it is also mixed with many things - not to mention the different smells of food in each household, the sound alone is enough to be called uneven, and some people have already used up their food. Rice, running water collided violently with dishes, and Some families have just started cooking, and the sound of fire and oil, and the fight between pots and shovels are endless. Some have already turned on the TV, and the family is sitting around having fun. Some children are crying hysterically, as if It's like crying the sky down.
Mikael looked up at the starless night sky again, and then laughed:
"Okay, okay."
Like he's talking to himself, or maybe not, who knows?
He walked slowly, like a social animal slowly walking home after work, rather than a driver and bodyguard who still had a job.
It took him about five minutes to walk back to the fork in the road where he and Mei Yi separated, and it took almost the same amount of time to find the ramen shop.
Mikael opened the door and entered the store. Like the previous stall, there were not many people in the store. After all, most of the residents here were left-behind elderly people and children. There was little traffic and low spending power.
Precisely because there were few people, Mikael just took a glance and realized that Mei Yi was not here.
"Hello, master."
He walked slowly to the counter and greeted the idle ramen chef.
"Hello! Would you like a bowl of noodles?"
Seeing Mikael shake his head, the ramen master grimaced again.
"I just want to ask, have you ever seen a girl with long purple hair and a black peaked cap?"
Hearing Mikael's question, the ramen chef immediately showed a vigilant look - the man in front of him was wearing something suspicious combined with his temperament. In addition, this kind of behavior of deliberately inquiring about other people's whereabouts, could it be something bad? A member of the club, right?
Fortunately, Mikael doesn't have the habit of reading other people's hearts at will, although this is not difficult, otherwise he would be somewhat dumbfounded. After half a day, apart from Mei, I had only greeted two humans, and both of them regarded him as a member of a delinquent society. Is he that scary...
With that vague vigilance, the ramen master tilted his head and thought carefully, then shook his head like a rattle.
"Never seen it."
"Huh? Really not?"
"No, there are only a few diners in our store, and there are only so many people hanging around in front of our eyes all year round. If there are new faces, there is no way I won't remember them."
Before he finished speaking, Mikael turned around and walked out. He had already sensed that there was indeed no trace of Mei's presence in the store.
Seeing this man appearing and leaving talking to himself, the ramen chef glanced at him in confusion.
Mikael pursed his lips tightly and endured it until he walked out of the ramen shop, then slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
"It's interesting. You finally couldn't help showing off your flaws? But, you dare to rob me? You are very confident!"
…………
"Da... da..."
Mei Yi stepped forward step by step. She swallowed the non-existent saliva and rolled her eyes, trying to see her current position clearly.
But everything around him was dimmed by the dark night. No matter how hard he tried, all he could see was one building after another that was almost copied and pasted.
"What's going on? Is he my father's competitor? Did he follow me all the way? Where is Mikael? Is Mikael working with these people?"
Meiyi was thinking wildly in her mind, and her steps couldn't help but slow down a little. A cold and hard tube-like object immediately pressed against her lower back.
"Let's go! Stop playing tricks!"
Meiyi instinctively turned her head, and her waist was quickly hit by the pistol again.
"Be honest! Don't turn your head!"
Mei Yi took a deep breath and took another trembling step forward.
Considering the special situation of her family, Mei Yi has not been taught what to do if she is kidnapped since she was a child.
The first thing is to stay calm, try not to have verbal or physical conflicts with the kidnappers, and don't try to resist.
Secondly, you can use language to test and attract the other party's attention.
There are many more things to note later, but unfortunately, except for the first point, this whole set of teachings is of no use at all.
She never saw the face of her kidnapper, but she was walking on the way to the ramen shop when someone suddenly put a pistol on her waist.
Recalling the shadow under the streetlight before, the other person was a girl about the same height as her. From the sound of her voice, she might be between her and Mikael in age. But this girl, or the team behind her, was obviously extremely sophisticated and didn't give Mei any chance to take advantage of her.
She was asked to walk at a pace one step per second, so that she would not be stuck in place, nor would she be able to speed up and escape when she encountered a shadow that obscured her vision.
Her head was not allowed to move, and her already dim vision was further restricted. Coupled with the fact that she was wandering around in the alley, she had no idea where she was now.
As for the so-called use of words to attract attention, Mei certainly did try it, but no matter what she said, the other party would not answer. And if she spoke louder, the muzzle of the gun would immediately be pointed at her as a warning.
Since the other party took the approach of kidnapping, they must be using her as a hostage to seek something from her father, the president of ME. Therefore, from an absolutely rational point of view, the pistol is actually a meaningless threat.
Since they want to kill her, just shoot her in the street. Isn't it redundant to kidnap and then shoot her?
But she can't rely on this point to provoke recklessly. Those who can do such a thing as kidnapping are generally not rational people. If they are angered, even if they don't kill her, it's harmless to shoot her limbs.
Therefore, occasionally stopping one or two steps and showing a weak resistance is the only struggle she can do.
Although this only delays a little bit of insignificant time, no matter how powerful Mikael is, he can't catch up... Ugh!
Mei stopped at her spot again, and as expected, the pistol was once again unceremoniously pressed against her waist.
But this time, the girl behind her did not urge her.
There were intermittent footsteps in the shadows of the alley ahead, and they were getting closer and closer.
The alley was narrow, and it was almost only enough for two people to walk side by side. Mei's shoulder was pressed, and then she was pushed to the left.
It seemed that the girl behind her was planning to avoid the pedestrians in front of her. Not only could she move to the right to make room and reduce the other party's attention, but she could also hide the pistol in her right hand.
But the strange thing was that when the footsteps were so obvious that they were only two or three meters away from the two people, the owner of the footsteps stood still.
It was a new moon tonight, and the lighting conditions were not good. There were no street lights in the alley, and the abandoned high-rise buildings on both sides of the alley cast shadows. In addition, the only light source, the new moon, was covered by dark clouds. Even if she opened her eyes wide, the kidnapper girl could only vaguely see a tall but not particularly strong figure.
She swallowed her saliva, having expected something.
Mei also opened her jaw and slowly exhaled.
The next moment, the moonlight fell through the gap in the dark clouds, and the whole world was slightly brighter for a moment.
"Pop!"
The silencer made the gunshot low, even less loud than the sound of the bullet hitting the concrete wall, but it was enough to echo for a long time in the long alley.
The girl looked in front of her in disbelief. Just as she pulled the trigger, the man in front of her completed a series of actions, pulling Mei away, grabbing the silencer of the pistol, and pinning it to his waist.
That's right, when a pistol appears in a story, it must fire, but firing does not mean hitting.
The bullet scratched the fabric on the waist of the man's suit, and perhaps also scratched his flesh, but that didn't matter at all, at most it was a scratch.
Although the girl was young, she was also a mercenary with many years of mission experience. Seeing this scene, she didn't try to wrestle with the man in front of her, and she wouldn't blindly pull the trigger to empty the magazine because of nervousness. Her response, at least in her own opinion, was perfect-
She released the pistol at the first time, and only wasted less than 0.1 second on pressing the magazine release button. The magazine fell freely and was just held in her palm. She quickly stepped back and pulled out another pistol on her waist with her left hand-due to the length limit, this one was not equipped with a silencer, which was a bit troublesome. But this was naturally a headache for others.
So far, she had just heard the first jump of the second hand on the watch on her right hand. Next, she only needed to hold the gun at her waist, and she could knock the man down with countless shooting experience.
What did the other party have in his hand? She had observed for a long time before. Judging from the situation when this guy paid the bill, he should not be carrying any firearms. The only risk was the gun she left behind. Although the magazine was removed, there was still a bullet in the chamber ready to be fired.
But the girl was not afraid. She also put a bulletproof plate inside her coat. At this distance, it was easy to block the Parabellum bullet weakened by the silencer. And she took the eldest lady of ME Club around for so long. If he could catch up, his breath must have been scattered, not to mention his heartbeat. In addition, in such dim light, she didn't think the other party would aim at anything other than her torso.
But the facts did not go as she wished. She did draw the gun, but before she could point the gun at the man in front of her, the latter threw the gun shell she left behind as if he had expected it, hitting her second gun.
"Pah--"
The two guns collided with each other, and the girl couldn't hold it at all. She could only watch desperately in her peripheral vision as the two guns turned into two black lines and flashed away.
When she tried to raise her knees and use her right hand to pull out the dagger in her boot, it was too late. The opponent had already slid forward and kicked her in the abdomen with a side kick, kicking her away instantly.
"Go!"
The opponent didn't seem to have the intention to kill her, but as soon as he defeated her, he dragged the eldest lady of ME Club to run away together.
"Tsk!"
After half a minute, the girl recovered and pulled herself out of the garbage pile - "Hiss... This guy, he really showed mercy..."
If Mikael didn't kick her to the garbage pile on the side, but let her fly in the air for 10 to 20 meters, she would definitely have broken several bones.
"Tsk! Lost to... him again."
The girl opened the hood that had been on her head, and her blood-red eyes were particularly bright in the watery moonlight.
She tapped her watch and then spoke directly:
"Bad news, the target was rescued by the opponent's bodyguard. Ural Silver Wolf, the next step is left to you."
"Don't worry, I won't miss it."
Listening to the other party's confident tone, Natasha suddenly laughed silently.
…………
Running wildly, she just followed the figure in front of her. At first, Mei Yi still had the strength to look back from time to time to see if the girl had caught up. But after only two minutes, the whole world in her ears seemed to be filled with only the sound of gasping. .
There was a smell of blood in her throat, and the trachea further down seemed to have been cut with countless cuts by blades, and her lungs felt deeply numb. She even felt in a daze that her alveoli were exploding one by one. .
Mikael just pulled her and ran for almost a kilometer without hesitation. Only then did the two of them see the exit of the alley, which was as complicated and lengthy as a sheep's intestines.
"嚓——"
Mikael's feet almost scratched sparks on the ground and stopped three meters away from the entrance of the alley.
Meiyi relied on her inertia and wanted to continue rushing out, but was pulled back by Mikael. The two of them had their backs against the rough and cold wall, but Meiyi could no longer hold on after only two or three seconds. Her legs and feet became weak, and her whole body kept sliding along the wall. The night in her sight also became brighter. Although it was not as bright as day, everything she saw was rimmed with white light, and after a while there were countless tiny mayflies floating around. stand up.
"Take a deep breath! Open your mouth wide-"
In a daze, she heard Mikael shouting from the side.
She trembled and opened her mouth. Unexpectedly, whether it was an illusion or not, a large amount of blue wind poured into her lungs. After only half a minute, the heavy burden on the respiratory system caused by the vigorous running was completely gone. It’s not that her legs and feet were so weak that she couldn’t move, it’s unimaginable that she had just sprinted for two minutes at a speed far exceeding her own 100-meter sprint speed!
"This...what is this?"
She raised her head, but only saw Mikael's side face stained by the moonlight.
Even after running at such a high speed, Mikael's chest almost didn't rise and fall, as if he didn't need to breathe. At this time, he was leaning against the wall and looking outside warily.
"I'll explain this to you later. Let me talk about the current situation first - there is a fifty-story high-rise building at five o'clock. The terrain center of Changkong City is low-lying. From here all the way to Yamate's Raiden Mansion, standing on the top of that building is... You can see clearly. If I were the other party and set up a sniper rifle there, the sniper range could reach Sakuragi Town. If the sniper skills are high enough, it is not impossible to block the bridge leading to the DC area."
Mei looked at Mikael blankly. He outlined the nearby terrain clearly in just a few words. He was completely different from the new driver who had to take a long way to come to the gym.
But Yayi had no time to comprehend, so she quickly asked:
"Then what should we do now? How about I call dad..."
"Need not."
Mikael turned his head and showed a relaxed smile.
"It's just a small problem, just wait for a minute."
Meiyi didn't understand what he meant, but since the other party had such plans, judging from his previous performance, she naturally chose to believe him.
Time passed by minute by second, and with the roar of the engine, Meiyi raised his eyebrows at first, and then became a little frightened - it couldn't be wrong! The sound of the engine was the same car that took her to and from school every day. She couldn't hear it wrong!
But... isn't the driver beside her?
She suddenly grabbed Mikael's arm tightly.
"Um?"
The other party snorted in confusion.
Meiyi quickly let go of her hand. The shock she received was a bit big. She just confirmed that the other person was indeed a real person with warmth, and not just a ghost.
"Stab-"
The wheels dragged a long black track on the cement road, which was extremely clear even at night.
The back seat door opened towards the entrance of the alley, and before Mei could react, Mikael held her in his arms.
"When you get in, lie down and don't show your head!"
Without waiting for her answer, with a "Let's go", she flew directly to the back seat, and the door magically closed automatically.
Mei held her head and curled up in the back seat as Mikael ordered. As if she thought of something, her curiosity suddenly overcame her fear. She raised herself up with her arms and looked at the driver's seat ahead——
Empty.
In other words, the car drove here by itself?
She rubbed her eyes, and when she opened them again, Mikael was already sitting in the driver's seat. He pressed the clutch, shifted gear, and stepped on the accelerator in one go, and the car sped away.
"That's not right...just now...there was no sound of the door opening or closing..."
Meiyi felt dizzy and everything was unreal until her hand touched something. She lowered her head and saw that the food she bought earlier fell into the car due to the sudden braking.
…………
"Tsk! It's so difficult to deal with...heh...what the hell!"
On the fifty-story building named by Mikael, the girl known as the Ural Silver Wolf stared at the scene in front of her in stunned silence.
"Raven, are you sure your information is correct? There is only one bodyguard and driver around the target?"
"What do you mean? Are you doubting that I can't count? I'm not old enough to be blind yet!"
"You're right, but the car just now drove over by itself."
"Huh?"
"The license plate is the same as the one just now. The driver didn't seem to get in the car. Can you catch up and see?"
Bronya complained while moving the sniper rifle's scope to Sakuramachi, but there was a lot of traffic there, so she quickly turned to the bridge southeast of Sakuramachi.
She turned the bolt and slowly replaced a special bullet.
At that distance, it was impossible to hit the people in the high-speed car, but she could try to hit the car itself.
But before she waited for the car to appear, a stern and helpless voice sounded in the headset:
"Forget it, this mission failed, you two should come back first."
