Chapter 157 Breaking in
He had looked at the terrain map before bringing his men up here. It was very steep and not conducive to vehicle access, but it was excellent terrain for the two sides to fight, with many things that could provide cover.
"Tonight, we'll lead a group up this path to find the back door. If we encounter any of those two factions, we'll take care of whoever it is."
Keeping people like that around is a threat to society.
The people surrounding Ji Jingshen nodded solemnly, just as they were about to continue their investigation when the mercenaries they had sent out to gather information returned with grave expressions.
The moment Ji Jingshen saw him, he suddenly had a bad feeling and hurriedly went forward to ask him.
"Last night, one force tried to break in, but for some reason they postponed it to tomorrow. However, another force plans to break in tonight and take the workers inside hostage."
Upon hearing this, Ji Jingshen's face instantly darkened. "Everyone, stand by now. I've already sent people to scout the route. Once we figure out the exact location of the back door, we'll move in and rescue the people."
There's no time now to have politicians step in to stop it; there's no time for that.
Ji Jingshen's expression was serious, but his worry and panic did not diminish in the slightest.
Qianyi, please don't let anything happen to you.
It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that the scouts returned with an accurate map, but the factory was already surrounded by people who were preparing to force their way in.
"No one is allowed to fall behind."
Ji Jingshen glanced at the people around him with a powerful aura and took the lead. He was so focused on comforting Song Qianyi that he didn't even notice that his exposed skin had been scratched by tree branches in several places.
Inside the warehouse, after Song Qianyi's reminder, the workers stayed quietly inside, their ears filled with the sounds of cars crashing into the gate outside. Everyone hugged themselves tightly, trying to suppress the screams escaping their throats.
But the crashing sounds outside soon stopped, and everyone's hearts sank.
Because they all knew very well that the gate had been breached.
The sounds of sunrise and searching can be heard gradually coming from outside.
“Those workers must be around here. Search carefully. If you find anyone, leave one alive. If they resist, kill them.”
He does need these workers as hostages, but he doesn't need to keep those who don't obey. A few are enough; too many would only cause trouble.
His words were clearly heard by everyone in the warehouse not far away, and everyone felt cold to the touch and chilled to the bone.
Thinking of the people who threatened them to open the door that day, if they had actually obeyed and opened the door, endless slaughter would have awaited them.
They couldn't help but feel grateful that they had listened to Song Qianyi's advice, but now was not the time to go to the market, because they could hear more and more footsteps outside the warehouse.
It's obvious that people have gathered here.
Song Qianyi was also plunged into despair, not even noticing that her fingers had pierced her arm.
"Junior sister, don't be afraid. If those people outside really get in, I will protect you with my life."
Li Yang looked at her with unwavering determination. He thought he had let go of the past, but he found that he couldn't.
He gave a bitter smile to himself, but didn't tell his junior sister these words. Although he liked Song Qianyi, he didn't want to use this to entangle her heart at this time.
Song Qianyi's eyes were a little dazed as she whispered, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother, but I think I can't outrun a bullet. When we get to the underworld, Senior Brother, you must take good care of your little junior sister. I'm not familiar with the world, and I'm afraid I'll get lost and won't be able to find my way to reincarnation."
Although the two spoke very softly, the warehouse was very quiet, and the people around them could hear their conversation clearly. Some of them couldn't help but burst into tears.
Suddenly, everyone heard voices outside.
"Boss, we've searched everywhere here, and this is the only warehouse left. I suspect these people hid all the grain in here."
What a bunch of useless trash! They're almost dead and they still waste so much food. They don't have much food left. They originally planned to just rob the factory, but they didn't expect these people to be so clever.
But what's the use? In the end, they'll still have to enjoy it. It's just a pity that all that food was eaten by those useless Easterners.
The man known as the boss had a gloomy expression. He looked at the tightly closed warehouse door in front of him and took a megaphone from one of his men.
“I know you can hear me. I’m giving you two choices. First, you can come out obediently and hand over all the food. We can let you go home safely. Second, we can break down the door. All the food will be ours, and you will only have one way out: death.”
The people in the warehouse were completely confused. Although they understood what the people outside had said, they couldn't figure out what to do and could only focus their attention on Song Qianyi.
"Don't open the door."
The people outside can't be trusted at all. If the warehouse door is still open, they can hold out for a while longer.
The crowd turned their heads blankly, falling silent.
Suddenly a bullet flew in from outside the door, grazed a man's ear, and hit the wall hard.
The man turned pale with fright and sat down heavily on the ground. A foul stench quickly filled the air.
"They...they fired."
The crowd was so frightened that they could barely speak. They panicked and scattered in all directions, looking for a place to hide, fearing that the next bullet would go right through their brains.
Hearing the screams from inside, the boss at the door nodded in satisfaction, preparing to have his men smash the door open.
Since those people wouldn't listen to reason and would rather suffer the consequences, then he wouldn't be ruthless. Just as he gave the order to prepare, he heard the sound of gunfire outside.
"The boss might be that group of people coming. Let's go and get ready first."
After all, they had already suffered a lot at the hands of the other side. The people in the warehouse were just a group of weaklings who were not worth fearing at all.
The eldest brother looked grim, but he knew which side was most important.
"go!"
Today I'm going to show those bastards who's the real boss.
Staring at the receding footsteps outside, Song Qianyi quickly got up from the ground, walked to the door, and carefully observed the situation outside through the bullet hole. Only after confirming that everyone had left did she breathe a heavy sigh of relief.
But it's no longer safe here.
"Everyone, leave immediately."
Song Qianyi went to the corner, and several men worked together to move three boxes over, revealing a hole.
