NOVEL NEXT Chapter 44
Chapter 44 Fight Back
The MK7 mech sports car soon transformed into a platinum gold square mecha, with a square frontage. It had two robotic arms and two robotic legs. The shape resembled the cartoon character SpongeBob.
The SpongeBob machine went through the big hole in the wall and headed directly for Yu Lanjie. One arm transformed into a big palm and held Yu Lanjie. The other arm sliced through the iron wires easily with the plasma sword.
As soon as Yu Lanjie’s wire was cut off, it was if some mechanism had been triggered. An iron box above the stage of the puppet theatre fell with a crash.
Thousands of scorpions crawled out of the box and headed for Yu Lanjie and the foreign boy.
Long Xi raged, “Scorpions? They never meant to let us out alive from the beginning! What a pervert!”
Mo Kun smiled and said, “That’s all right. My armor is solid!”
He pressed a light blue concave button, and a conveyor belt appeared on the palm of SpongeBob.
Yu Lanjie was lifted onto the conveyor belt and brought to the control room.
Then Mo Kun saved the blond, blue-eyed foreign boy in the same way and sent him to the control room.
Many scorpions climbed onto MK7, but it was impregnable and was impervious to scorpion bites. The machine mech was welded so flawlessly that no scorpions could get in.
Long Xi was the first to rush up and gently embraced Yu Lanjie, who was covered in blood.
Yu Lanjie was still conscious. She recognized Long Xi and clutched her arm tightly. She choked and repeatedly asked, “Am I dying? Am I dying… ”
Long Xi cried in distress.
Mo Kun took out a bottle of Quick Healing Ointment from the locker and handed it to Long Xi.
He took out a syringe and gave Yu Lanjie and the foreign boy a jab to anesthetize the pain
Then, with two medical forceps, he quickly pulled out the wires that had passed through their limbs.
For him, injuries were common back in his planet, so it was necessary for him to have some medical skills.
Long Xi used alcohol to sanitize the wounds of the two, then applied the Quick Healing Ointment on them.
Yu Lanjie, who saw her wounds healing quickly, said, “It’s amazing!”
The boy also said, “Amazing! Thank you!”
Long Xi kissed the boy’s chubby little face. Such a lovely child, how could anyone be so heartless and hurt him?
No, that person must surely not be human!
Long Xi asked Yu Lanjie, “Lanlan, have you seen Wei Wei? Do you know where they are keeping her?
Yu Lanjie shook her head. “She was taken, too? I didn’t see her! I took a taxi home last night and fainted in the taxi. When I woke up, I found myself here. Two men threaded the wires through my body and hung me on the stage. One is a middle-aged man and the other is a young man. I don’t know who they were. That foreign boy had it worse. When they brought me here, he had been hanging for quite some time already. The ground was covered with his blood.”
Mo Kun said to Long Xi, “First you need to send them to the hospital for emergency treatment. They are bleeding excessively. Grandma, too, needs a general check-up to ensure that she is well.”
He pushed his cell phone into Long Xi’s hand and said, “There are tens of thousands of dollars in this cell phone’s Wechat Wallet. You pay for medicine first; the password is your birthday. I’ll go and get Wei Wei back. Can you drive?”
Long Xi said, “I can’t drive a car, but I can drive a tricycle because I used to work part-time in a courier company and drove a tricycle to deliver items. Besides, I’m not old enough to get a driving license. When you find Wei Wei, bring her to Xie De Hospital to meet us.”
Mo Kun nodded and transformed part of MK7’s body into a tricycle.
Long Xi drove the three patients to the hospital on the tricycle.
Mo Kun used the infrared lights to search for signs of life in Paradise. When Mo Kun flew to the west of the Paradise, he found a bright yellow sports car speeding towards the west gate of the Paradise. The fluorescent screen of the mech showed that there was a person in the car.
He immediately let “SpongeBob” use its two mechanical legs on two magnetic suspension wheels to catch up with the car. He then used the plasma sword to slash at the tires on the two rear wheels of the car. The sports car immediately came to a stop.
The door opened and a man crawled out.
The large manipulator of the mech was like a monster’s claw. It grabbed the man and lifted him to the front of the mech.
The man looked young and he shouted loudly.
Mo Kun searched Long Xi’s memory and found that the man might be Cheng Yilun.
“Where is Wei Wei?” Mo Kun asked through the mech speaker, “Tell me! Otherwise, I’ll pinch you to death!”
The youth who could be Cheng Yilun was so frightened that he cried out in a trembling voice, “Who the hell are you?”
“Aren’t you very fond of giving people choices? Let me give you two choices. A, tell me where Wei Wei is. B, if you say nothing, I’ll cut off one of your legs first. If you don’t choose any, I’ll cut off one of your arms! I give you three seconds. One, two…” Mo Kun said.
“My father took Wei Wei away forty minutes ago,” the young man said hurriedly.
“Your father is Cheng Gong? You’re Cheng Yilun?” Mo Kun asked.
“Yes. I advise you not to go against us. It will not be good for you. There is a shortage of talents like you on our side. You’d better join us.” Cheng Yilun was still struggling. He even tried to lobby Mo Kun.
Mo Kun laughed and said, “Join you? I’ll think about it. But first, you let Wei Wei go. She’s a friend of my girlfriend.”
“I’m your candy; I’m your flower…” The young man’s cell phone rang.
Cheng Yilun answered the phone with one hand, consulted with the person on the other end of the line and then said to the mech, “My dad said that he will use Wei Wei to make a deal with you. He will meet us in Guchuan Cafe in half an hour. He lets Wei Wei go; you let me go.”
Mo Kun said, “Okay, then you lead the way.”
He let Cheng Yilun follow the conveyor belt to the cockpit. Then he tied Cheng Yilun’s feet with a long chain and hung him upside down in the middle of the MK7 cockpit.
Then he turned on stealth mode and flight mode.
With his head down, Cheng Yilun’s blood rushed to his head and he had to look at the traffic screen at the same time. It was a very uncomfortable position for him as he had to find and lead the way at the same time.
In his life, he was the one who tortured others. How could he ever be tortured by others?
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the door of the Gu Chuan cafe.
It was three o’clock in the morning and the Gu Chuan cafe was ablaze with lights. Through the French windows, four or five guests could be seen.
The most significant feature of this cafe was that it was open 24 hours.
Mo Kun soon discovered where Wei Wei was.
She sat stiffly at a window seat.
