Besides loosening the ropes on their feet, nothing else was done to the group of three. Luke even asked Xia Jinyuan to tie the three of them together. This way, the three of them wouldn’t be able to escape successfully.
Luke was very cautious. Before he left, he took out the photo and looked at the three of them again. Then, he led the way. Xia Jinyuan brought up the rear and retreated with the biochemical doctor and his two assistants.
The three of them were like fish on a board waiting to be slaughtered. When the two of them came out, Luke, who was still holding his cell phone in his hand, contacted the people guarding outside. “I’ve got them. Give Mr. Smith a big gift. Xia and I will bring the people out.”
The biochemical doctor and his assistants were in a passive position. Especially when they heard the concentrated gunshots, they were so shocked and afraid that they didn’t dare to have any thoughts of escaping. Even if they wanted to escape, the three of them wouldn’t be able to.
They could only run away with a group of unknown fellows.
It was much smoother to evacuate the factory than to infiltrate it. At least they didn’t have to move carefully anymore. When they saw someone rushing over, they would pick up the AK in their hands and shoot. They would just kill their way out.
Gunshots seemed to come from all directions. Xia Jinyuan and Luke cooperated with each other and rushed out with the biochemical doctor and his two assistants.
Smith’s reinforcements came very quickly too. They started a bloodbath outside the factory. Cobra’s people were already prepared. If there were too many people, they would throw grenades. If there were too few people, they would shoot directly. The many backups made Xia Jinyuan and Luke’s evacuation smoother. They left the factory in less than ten minutes. In less than a minute, the entire steel processing factory exploded.
A huge explosion suddenly sounded in the early morning, alarming more than half of the city. The entire factory turned into a huge fireball. Everything was engulfed by the fire. Even if the fire trucks came, it was useless. They could only watch as the fire burned.
The day after the explosion at a steel processing plant in the second-largest city of Manchester, the news was published in the newspapers. Even the military newspapers in the country reported the explosion.
It said that the cause of it was the high pressure produced by the boiler that caused the explosion. As for the actual situation, the military newspaper didn’t elaborate. It only wrote that the high pressure produced by the ‘suspected’ boiler caused the explosion. The number of deaths was as high as 37. The number was quite astonishing.
When this news reached the country, it attracted a lot of attention. Steel factories even received a notice of safety reform. Every steel factory was required to check all the boilers to prevent similar accidents.
Ye Jian had seen the news too, but it didn’t attract much attention. It was only because it was published in the military newspaper that the military school students had to read every day that they were aware of the news. After reading it, they treated it as an accident.
What she didn’t know was that her boyfriend, Xia Jinyuan, was one of the people involved in this huge explosion. She didn’t know that her boyfriend finally got close to Cobra because of this.
It was winter again. Ye Jian wore her military coat and slowly walked through the school. Her military boots made creaking sounds as they stepped on the thick snow. The world had turned white overnight. Snow covered everything. It was white and flawless.
Last year, when it was snowing, she even strolled in the snow with him and listened to him talk about the interesting things he did when he was studying at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Occasionally, their shoulders would touch lightly. It was as if they had drunk honey. It was so sweet that it reached their hearts.
Today, she had already… Ye Jian raised her head and looked at the sports ground. She calculated the time and realized that she and Captain Xia had been apart for almost ten months.
