Chapter 399: Kidnapping (3)

Rose’s body trembled as the cold air pierced her bones. Her btrench coat couldn’t resist the wind that blew from the sea a few meters ahead. If only she could have foreseen an incident like this, she would have worn a thicker winter jacket.

She walked faster while tightening her coat, ignoring the chill in her body. For several minutes following, the visible tire tracks on the snow-covered road made her impatient. She wanted to find a black Van immediately—time was precious now—afraid the bandits would hurt her cousin, Keira. But, after passing several warehouses, he didn’t see the car.

The soundlessness in that place made Rose’s fear begin to appear again.

What if this place is haunted?

He doesn’t like creepy things—like ghosts. So, throughout her life, she rarely watched horror movies.

"God!! If you are near me, please, keep me away from such things...." She silently prayed. But a second later, Rose cursed herself. "Stupid girl!! There’s no ghost during the day!?"

She laughed silently as she quickened her pace.

Not long after, she saw the last shabby gray warehouse near the beach. There was a huge parking lot, but no vehicle was seen there. Only a few rusty containers were stacked in several places in the parking area.

As if the warehouse was waiting for her, its gates opened wide. And just like the warehouse, the security post where people supposedly stay to guard it was empty.

"This must be the place! Is it?" Rose wondered.

She scanned the surroundings to see if the kidnappers were hiding in not-easily-see spots. However, after observing for a while, she didn’t notice any movement in the warehouse area with two large doors—closed tightly.

This warehouse is so long. Maybe about two or three football fields long, with a height of about 8 to 10 meters. Rows of glass windows above are neatly lined up to the end. And there are two small buildings near the main warehouse.

When she looked at the area beside the warehouse, she saw a black van parked beside the building. Instantly, her heart beat faster.

Finally, she found the car that took Keira.

"Kei! Please wait for me. I will save you." Rose quietly talked to herself and moved forward near the car. She wanted to check if Keira was still in that car or...

When she got to the car, she saw nothing in it. And near the vehicle, she saw neither the window nor the door.

How could she enter the warehouse if the door was tightly shut?

Suddenly she felt her head spinning.

After some time, she walked behind the warehouse. Her faint smile appeared when she saw an open window at the end of the building.

She has a chance to save Keira!

Even though Rose didn’t have any grand plans to save Keira from that place, she was determined. Right now, the only thing on her mind was; she had to find Keira.

When she arrived by the window, she felt like crying. How could she climb that almost two-meter-high wall if there were no trees by the window and no ladder?

Damn it!!

Rose was eager to learn from Sam how to climb a wall without a ladder. She had seen Sam climb the wall several times without any effort. He was a martial arts expert, and this kind of wall was a piece of cake for him.

"Sam!! If I get out of this place alive. You have to teach me that trick!!!"

Although it was difficult to climb the window, she was grateful—to find his way into this warehouse.

Now, she was trying to find a way to get good up there—observing her surroundings, maybe there was something she could use to get up there.

Later...

She saw several wooden packet boxes on the far side of the building, near the small building she had seen earlier.

After finding the area safe, she hurriedly moved the wooden box under the window. She arranged five wooden boxes—she was finally able to reach the window.

Before Rose climbed up, she tried to hear any sound from the room. A few seconds passed, and no sound was heard. She climbed up and entered the room without difficulty.

She was proud of herself because today she was wearing jeans and sneakers. She might have had difficulty entering this room if she had been wearing a skirt.

And, the physical training she had gone through so far was beneficial. She could jump gracefully on top of the machine by the window without making any sound. She hid as she landed on the floor.

Rose was stunned when she saw the room filled with rusty machines. The room was huge and could accommodate about twenty SUV cars. On the other side, she saw a tightly closed door.

For a while, she didn’t dare move. She could only hide behind the machine while hearing the voices around her. Worried that someone is in the room.

After making sure no sound could be heard from behind the door, she decided to open the door. She felt lucky that the door wasn’t locked.

Through the gap in the open door, she peeked. Again what she saw surprised her. In front of her was lined with machines bigger than the ones in the room. And she still didn’t understand what kind of machines were in that place. She also saw many large pressure tanks two meters high in the corner and many large boxes neatly arranged.

The room was lit by light pouring in from the neatly arranged glass windows above, close to the high ceiling.

"There’s no one here! How could it be?"

She was sure the black van outside the warehouse was the car that kidnapped Keira.

But why is this place empty? Is there another room at the end?

"Should I move now or..." The fear of being caught filled her mind.

Rose worries because she doesn’t know how many people are in this warehouse. She felt confident that if there were only 10 people, she could beat them all—though with difficulty and with the help of a gun she was holding now.

However, if it was more than that, she wasn’t sure she would be able to get out of this place alive. Because her ammo is limited, and her martial arts are still at beginner level. So, she could only rely on her gun.

She had to find out where those people had hidden Keira, so she could make her next move.

Before she moves forward, she prays in her heart—she hopes Oscar finds them soon.

After walking to the other side of the warehouse, she saw that there were two doors and a staircase. She decided to go up to the second floor. She was sure these people were hiding Keira there.

While in Oscar’s car, the situation is equally intense.

"Mr. Jennings, we lost the GPS signal!!"

Oscar jumped in surprise when he heard the driver suddenly shout. He looks at the GPS on the dashboard. His heart tightened when he saw Rose’s position stop a few miles ahead.

He didn’t know much about the city because he rarely came to this country. He would only go to headquarters or Aidan’s restaurant if he visited here.

"Has she arrived, or is the signal gone!?" Oscar asks. From the look of the GPS screen, he wasn’t sure if Rose had stopped at that point or if her phone had lost signal.

The driver didn’t say anything.

"Do not talk too much!! Hurry up... follow the last location before the PGS signal stops!" shouted the black-haired man sitting next to the driver.

"Yes, Sir!!" The driver stepped on the gas, and the car moved fast.

Oscar pinched his temples and suddenly felt his head hurt, hearing them, "Do you know which area it is?"

"If I’m not mistaken, the location is in the old town; the warehouse and port area are no longer in use. That area is an underground place for lowly gangsters in this city. Mr. Jennings, why is the lady boss going to that area?" The driver asked.

The driver was confused by the sudden assignment he had just received this afternoon. He was asked to be on standby around Collins Mall. He had just parked his vehicle when he was suddenly asked to pick up Mr. Jennings in front of the mall—he didn’t know what mission he was on. What he heard from Mr. Jennings and the Leader, they’re now following Lady Boss’s GPS live location.

The black-haired man frowned as he turned to look at the driver beside him, "Stop asking! Just take this car as fast as you can!!"

Oscar took a deep breath hearing the conversation between the two people in front. But he didn’t say anything. His mind is in a mess right now. He was too scared to know that Lady Boss was in a remote area, and why did her cell phone signal suddenly disappear? Was she also arrested!?

Instantly he could feel his thoughts tormenting him.

"Lady boss! Please wait... I will find you..." Oscar said quietly to himself.
