Chapter 1022: That Pen’s Use (3)
“Who’s there?” Just as Ling Tianya was hesitating outside, the voices of two members of the terrorist organization who were outside patrolling drifted over.
Gu Zhiqian froze and quickly pulled Ling Tianya away to hide in the corner of the building. Although the wall could temporarily hide them from the two members’ sight, if they walked forward, they would be able to see Gu Zhiqian and Ling Tianya.
Gu Zhiqian tightly gripped Ling Tianya’s hand and said softly into her ear, “If it comes to that, I will go out and lure them away. You take the opportunity to run.”
The two members of the terrorist group drew closer. One of them said, “There’s no one here.”
“But there was definitely a voice just now,” the other one said. “Let’s go ahead and look.”
The two terrorist group members’ footsteps grew closer. Gu Zhiqian and Ling Tianya became anxious, and their hearts beat faster. They could clearly hear each other’s hearts beat.
“Meow!”
At this time, the wild cat that Ling Tianya had fed for many days suddenly jumped out. In the pitch-black night, a black cat suddenly jumping out scared the two members of the terrorist organization.
The cat stood in front of the two members of the terrorist group and stared at them, meowing threateningly. It really sounded like a human voice.
The two members of the terrorist group shared a glance. “So it’s just a cat.”
“There’s nothing. Let’s go.”
Hearing the footsteps leaving, Gu Zhiqian and Ling Tianya’s hearts calmed down. After confirming that there was no one outside, the two came out from the corner.
Ling Tianya immediately recognized the cat. She looked at it, happily surprised, and she said to the cat, “Thank you.”
The cat’s eyes were unnaturally shiny in the low-lit atmosphere. It stared at Ling Tianya, as if saying, “You treated me to food, and I have saved you once. We’re now even.”
Then the cat arrogantly walked away.
Although there had been an interlude, the matter could not be delayed. Gui Zhiqian and Ling Tianya quickly ran in the direction that Zhang Ke had pointed them in.
Zhang Ke quickly closed the door to the room that Ling Tianya had originally been locked in. She took off her black clothing, changed into Ling Tianya’s originally-white clothing, let down her hair, and sat in front of the window, her back facing the door.
She needed to give Ling Tianya and Gu Zhiqian more time to escape. They were fewer people. If they were to meet force with force and alarm the members of the terrorist organization who were left or Wang Manpeng, who was away, Ling Tianya would never get the chance to leave this place.
Therefore, they needed to let the people here think that nothing had happened. Since it was like that, they needed them to think that Ling Tianya was still here.
At this time, the two members of the terrorist group who were in charge of guarding Ling Tianya’s room woke up from the hypnosis. The two did not know what happened and simply felt dizzy. They turned around to look into the room and saw a woman sitting by the window with her back to them.
Seeing that the woman in the room was still there, the two members of the terrorist group nodded.
This place was very remote, and they were surrounded by overgrown weeds. When they lifted their heads and looked forward, they could not see any houses nor any traces of people.
Gu Zhiqian and Ling Tianya did not have any communication equipment on them. They did not have anything besides their legs.
At this time, Ling Tianya began to regret not eating properly these last couple of days and accumulating energy. If she had, perhaps now her overdraft of energy wouldn’t be so severe.
