In the hospital room where Old Liao and the others were locked up, two young soldiers were passed out on the floor, and the traces of the three criminals had long disappeared.

Bai Xia Xia sniffed out a type of light scent that was like the one she had smelled before – – like cigarettes, the bad smell of those that had not been lit up and burnt.

“They couldn’t have run far!” Guo Chao Ming picked up Bai Xia Xia: “Sniff fast, where did they run to!”

Didn’t Captain Li arrange a bunch of people in civilian’s clothes on the fourth floor? Why haven’t I seen even one of them? F*ck, escaping even with so many people guarding them, Li Ai Guo will probably explode from anger.

This is a slap on his face under the bright sun.

“I’m a cat, not a dog!” Bai Xia Xia ran to the top of Guo Chao Ming’s shoulder and laid there, she was like a white scarf, then her right paw patted down: “Go down.”

Patting with the right paw to turn right, patting with the left paw to turn left, and if it was to run straight, the cat would meow out; Guo Chao Ming went along the hospital’s back door and ran out some hundreds of meters, from far away, he watched a silhouette throw down a person that was carried on their back.

Guo Chao Ming kept quiet, running wildly, but that person escaped like he was flying.

Guo Chao Ming ran to the side of the person that was lying on the floor and saw a familiar creepy face; he was laying sideways, a dagger was stuck in his heart, and the scarlet blood was piercing to the eyes and running like a river.

His glaring eyes were round, opened very big, and his whole face was filled with disbelief. He was currently using his hand to press his chest, fixedly staring at the direction where the person in black clothes had left, “You, you…”

“Who wants to kill you?” Guo Chao Ming picked up Old Liao by his collar, and Bai Xia Xia huddled up to the back of Guo Chao Ming’s neck, her small paws curled up, hugging Guo Chao Ming’s neck tightly: “Woo-hoo~”

“Well deserved! That’s what you get for doing bad things, and for underestimating cats! Hehe, I’ve already found friends to search for the people, when I find those hostages, I’ll come back to anger you to death! But, you’ll probably not be able to wait for that day, pitiful~” The kitty wagged its tail.

“You, you…” Old Liao did not look at Guo Chao Ming at all, he stared in shock at the little beast that he hated deep in his bones, then suddenly laughed maniacally, which pulled on his wound and blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth: “You actually know how to talk, so you can talk…”

“I f*cking lost to a cat…” Without this cat, I wouldn’t have unluckily entered the hospital, even more so I wouldn’t die today. Old Liao’s expression was hideous as he tried to catch Bai Xia Xia, catch this cat that he hated: “You, you…” Damn it!

“Peng!” Old Liao fell on the ground, his eyes stared fixedly in the direction of Bai Xia Xia, then died with a remaining grievance[1].

Bai Xia Xia was so frightened that she scurried into Guo Chao Ming’s chest; Guo Chao Ming lowered his head to look at the cat that had exploded: Seems like, right before dying, Old Liao was able to understand the cat’s meowing.

“He died so miserably.” Guo Chao Ming glanced in the direction where the black silhouette had left, then squatted down to check Old Liao’s wound. Moonlight fell, and there was a thick haze under Guo Chao Ming’s eyes: “The move was fast and efficient, taking his life in one blow.”

“Won’t you chase?” Bai Xia Xia: “I can smell their scent.”

Guo Chao Ming pressed down the paws that the cat had extended out: “I can’t catch up.”

“…Wang Peng and Old Second Bai, can you still smell out their scents?” These two escaped too.

Bai Xia Xia’s right paw tapped on the right main street; when they were going down the stairs, she had sniffed out the smell of Wang Peng, even though she did not know how they had escaped from the hospital.

Nevertheless, the smell had appeared once again in the main street. They had definitely run here, so Guo Chao Ming chased after them: “Did they escape alone?”

“Meow~” Bai Xia Xia could only smell the scent of the two of them.

Guo Chao Ming laughed, “Seems like, they really know something.”

“This means they were prepared since early on.” To be able to escape from that group of people and live, from what I can see, Old Second Bai had planned well for today’s events since long ago.

“…Second brother, I-I can’t keep running.” Wang Peng was dripping with sweat, the wound on his lower body seemed to have opened, and it hurt so much that his facial expression was pale: “We… we’ve already ran until here, they won’t chase us here.”

“Keep persisting, there is a place for us to stay in at the end of this street. If we go there, we’ll be safe.” Old Second Bai’s face was also pale, and he constantly looked back to see if there were people chasing. In the middle of the night, two men were running wildly in the street, causing the passersby to look at them repeatedly.

Especially because these two people were wearing hospital gowns.

“We’re here!” Old Second Bai saw the familiar big iron gate and rushed over delightedly to knock on the door.

“Who?”

“It’s me!”

A gap was opened in the big iron gate, the bald man had a fierce-looking face, and he brushed over Old Second Bai, which caused his expression to change slightly: “Why did you come?”

“Let’s talk after going in!” Old Second Bai: “Fast!”

The bald man was obviously a bit reluctant, but after hesitating, he soon opened the door and let the two go in.

“Cat, you’re sure the people are in there?”

Guo Chao Ming’s hand rubbed his chin, No wonder they dare to escape. Tsk tsk, all these three guys are capable.

“Meow[2]!”

Guo Chao Ming was amused, Is this the rumoured walking into their own trap?

He told the cat to stay there and guard and left by himself to call people – – Half an hour has passed, it’s likely, that there’re people working already.

“Second brother, you’re so amazing!” Wang Peng regained some energy, and the three people were sitting in the yard to enjoy the shade.

The bald man was still somewhat vigilant: “Are you sure that no one followed you here?”

“The noses of those police dogs are sensitive!” Old Second Bai waved his hand: “Don’t worry, that group of people will take care of these details for sure.”

“Peng Zi, what do you think? I said that once everything is ready, only one crucial thing will be missing[3]. But once that crucial thing comes, we’ll be able to escape alive.” Old Second Bai’s face was filled with disdain: “Old Liao that fool, he really thought that he would be able to live? An idiot dreaming!”

Wang Peng’s heart was beating furiously, they did illegal business. However, on their hands, there were no lives. They did not dare to move even if their hands held a gun, and they lived in the sewers like mice.

The reason why they dared to fight against Qin Xiao and the others in Cuilian Mountain, it was simply because they had no other way.

But now… when that group of people say to silence, then they’ll silence, when they say to blow it up, they blow it up! Almost, we almost were also… this is too crazy!

If it weren’t because Old Second Bai was prepared early on, and we escaped in advance. Right now, everybody would be done for like Old Liao!

Just thinking about it caused Wang Peng’s body to be covered in cold sweat, and the bald man said while laughing, “You crafty guy, no one is as shrewd as you!”

“Haha, wait for it, tomorrow, those people will definitely be hard-pressed[4], relax, I won’t stay for a long time, I guarantee that I won’t cause you trouble…”

“Peng!”

The big door was crashed open and about ten people broke into the courtyard, they then surrounded the three people that were joking around: “Raise your hands, you’re not allowed to move!”

A cat was lying on top of Guo Chao Ming’s shoulder, and they slowly entered last. Waving her hand at the unbelieving Old Second Bai: “Yo, we meet again~”

The Persian cat’s tail lazily waved up and down, and its small gaze that was meeting Wang Peng and Old Second Bai’s eyes that were about to crack from anger greeted: “Meow~”
