Chapter: 4866

As he spoke, the pickup truck drove into a small courtyard in the countryside.

Ye Chen looked at Red Army beside him, seeing his growing anxiety and laughed, saying, "Old guy, don't be so nervous, it's just adding gas, nothing to worry about."

Just as he finished speaking, the pickup truck came to a stop in the courtyard, and several brick houses around the courtyard immediately had seven or eight burly men come out. These people were all Mexican-looking, with similar tattoos on their bodies, wearing sharp-toed shoes that looked like they belonged to gang members, and all held guns in their hands.

As these people surrounded them, Red Army suddenly became nervous and asked, "What are they going to do?"

"What are they going to do?" the young man sitting beside him smiled, pulled out a gun from under his seat, pointing it at Red Army and then at Ye Chen, saying coldly, "All of you, get off the car. If anyone tries to run away, I'll shoot them dead!"

Just as he finished speaking, the outside group of burly men opened the back doors of the pickup truck.

Subsequently, each of them pointed their guns at Ye Chen and Red Army inside the car, shouting something loudly.

However, Ye Chen couldn't understand Spanish, completely unaware of what these people were saying. He just found it annoying that they kept shouting.

Ye Chen quickly cupped his ears with both hands, shouted loudly, "Let's talk this out! Don't shoot, don't shoot! You guys just want money, right? I have over $1,000 on me; take it all if you want! If not, give me your luggage boxes too!"

The young man responded coldly: "What a bunch of nonsense. Get off the car, and you won't understand anyway!"

"Just as he finished speaking, the burly men on both sides grabbed him and tied his hands behind his back with a nylon strap about one cun wide. This kind of strap is very secure; if you try to wriggle free from it all the way up to the meat or even until it's wrapped around your bones, you won't be able to break the strap. Moreover, this type of strap has a one-way lock that only gets tighter but never loosens, so these criminal groups especially like using this stuff to bind victims.

According to their experience, no one has ever managed to wriggle free from such a strap. After being tied up, Ye Chen was pulled out of the car by two burly men and dragged down onto the ground.

Red Army tried to struggle, but his opponents pinned him to the ground and tightly tied his hands with the nylon strap too. Red Army spat out some dirt, gagging several times, shouting loudly, "What do you guys want to do?! You're kidnapping someone like me who's already bankrupt, and it's completely a waste of time! I'm useless to you except for wasting food!"

The young man walked up, squatted down, and patted Red Army's face with the muzzle of his gun, laughing and saying, "Old guy, don't think you're worthless; in fact, you're very useful!"

Ye Chen and Red Army were coerced by gunpoint and directly led into one of the brick rooms.

Inside this brick room, there was no furniture arrangement, only a lamp-lit descending staircase.

The two were brought to an underground location by bandits armed with real guns.

This underground area originally had another hidden entrance.

The entire underground section was divided into two areas by a corridor, with a cell on the left containing seven or eight people, and on the right, a nearly 10-meter-long white curtain completely blocking the arrangement behind it.

However, the entire underground section was permeated with disinfectant water's strong scent, making it unbearable to breathe, in addition to the sound of breathing machines and heart monitors operating.

Ye Chen suddenly realized that this must be a simple operating room.

Moreover, Ye Chen could sense that there were two extremely weak patients behind the white curtain, deep in a coma.

At this moment, an elderly man around 50 years old with yellowish skin walked down from the other end of the corridor, passing by everyone to stand before them, first looking at Red Army and then glancing at Ye Chen on the side, asking the young man, "Has their identity been confirmed, Ah Liang?"

"That's settled." The young man being called Ah Liang quickly flashed a courteous smile and said, "Uncle Ma, this kid is just a scoundrel from inside who ran away to Mexico. He happened to sit next to Red Army on the plane and they chatted all along. He plans to follow Red Army and become a sailor before coming here."

Uncle Ma nodded slightly and looked at Ye Chen again, smiling and said, "Don't say that. This kid looks strong and energetic, and he's young too. If he can find a good match, he'll definitely get a good price." JrNovels.com
