Chapter 185: Countermeasure

After hearing the other party’s response, Mo Chi hurriedly hung up the phone. Immediately after, he made another call to Butler Zhang, who was watering the plants in the back garden.

Butler Zhang had followed Mo Chi for many years. With a glance, he knew that something was wrong with Mo Chi. His murderous gaze could not be blocked.

“Old Zhang, I’ll have to trouble you to follow me to see some blood today,” Mo Chi said as he turned around and left the study. He brought Butler Zhang to a basement in the Mo Residence.

When the door to the basement opened, it was filled with firearms. Not only were there more than a hundred pistols, but there were also new cannon weapons. If not for the huge impact, Mo Chi really wanted to carry the cannon and blast the other party.

Butler Zhang had been professionally trained. Even though he was already old, he could still easily defeat seven or eight ordinary bodyguards. Mo Chi brought him along with six young and strong Mo Family bodyguards.

There were a total of ten people driving two SUVs towards the moat as quickly as possible.

After Shen Ming called Mo Chi, he turned around and left the basement.

Qin Ran wondered what was more important than guarding her and Su Nan as hostages that it was worth it for Shen Ming to leave time and time again. Could it be that there was another hostage hidden in this lousy place?

Although she was puzzled, Qin Ran didn’t stop what she was doing. In the past, when she was in class at the National Security Bureau, there was a phase where she practiced how to get out of trouble with her hands tied behind her back almost every day. She didn’t expect to encounter it after she retired.

As soon as the hemp rope broke, Qin Ran immediately reached out to cover Su Nan’s surprised mouth. She was really afraid that she would scream in one breath and alarm the two burly men outside. Then all her previous efforts would be in vain.

“Calm down, calm down,” Qin Ran mouthed.

Su Nan nodded nervously.

“Don’t make a sound. Be quiet.” Qin Ran continued to express her thoughts.

......

Su Nan nodded as well.

Finally, Qin Ran let go and immediately cut the hemp rope on Su Nan’s wrist with a small knife. Then, under Su Nan’s gaze, she tiptoed towards the only window in the basement.

Qin Ran stood on the ground and carefully sized up the small window. This window was really too small, and because no one had lived here for many years, the soil outside the window had already accumulated too much.

No, it seemed like climbing up the window secretly was not advisable. Moreover, even if she climbed up, what would happen to Su Nan? It was absolutely impossible for her to go up. Thinking of this, Qin Ran could only find another way.

In the midst of it, Qin Ran heard the two men at the door whispering something.

Qin Ran immediately pressed her ear against the wall and intermittently extracted useful information from the sounds outside the door.

As expected, Qin Ran’s guess was right. The reason why Shen Ming always went out was really to monitor another hostage, and this hostage was Su Wang. Moreover, she could tell that Su Wang, who was bleeding, was not in a good state.

At this moment, Qin Ran really didn’t dare to delay any longer.

After listening to the conversation outside the door, Qin Ran suddenly had a plan. She walked quietly to Su Nan’s side and whispered into her ear.

Ten seconds later, Su Nan nodded in agreement. She saw Qin Ran walk towards the door and then nimbly stuck her body on the roof above the door.

“What exactly do you want? Aren’t I also kidnapped? It’s useless even if you blame me.” Su Nan deliberately dragged her voice and shouted towards the door.

“Alright, you should stop fiddling with this rope. It’s impossible for you to break it. Save your strength.” Su Nan’s tone became more and more anxious as she spoke, specifically picking words like escaping or breaking the rope.

Her acting was really good. Qin Ran thought to herself that it was a pity that Su Nan didn’t become an actor.

Qin Ran quietly listened to the sounds coming from the door, but they didn’t push the door open and enter.

“Are you really going to escape? Are you really going to leave me here alone?” Su Nan continued to shout according to what Qin Ran had just taught her.

As soon as she finished speaking, the basement door was slammed open by the man.

“Where is she?” the first man who walked in shouted. “Why are you alone? That person…”

In the blink of an eye, Qin Ran jumped down from above and placed her hands on the shoulder of the man walking in front. With her strength, she kicked the man’s face.
