Chapter 1007: It's Been Too Long
The person leading the way didn't go far, but turned a few corners and came to the place where he parked.
"Get in the car. He gestured to the car behind him.
This is the vehicle that is usually used to transport ingredients, and behind it is a closed compartment that emits the smell of poultry.
Roy glanced at him, trying to imprint his appearance in his memory, and then with his hands propped up, he had already jumped into the carriage.
The man's scalp was numb when he saw it, and it was clear that the other party hadn't done anything, but he just glanced at him, but it made him feel a kind of pressure from the top of the dark clouds.
He rubbed his bald head twice before he grunted and jumped into the car.
The car drove out without a hitch. As he passed by the door, Roy heard two questions, but the people outside didn't even glance at the carriage and let him go.
It made his face even more difficult to look at.
It's really funny, such a loose guard actually protects them! What is even more ridiculous is that this kind of laxity also happened after an important person has disappeared! Generally speaking, shouldn't more be more guarded? He really doubted that his crew had been able to shoot movies peacefully in the past few months, whether it was because of good protection, or because of their own bad luck, so that no one had gone missing earlier.
Roy endured all kinds of unpleasant smells in the bumps, looked at the time, and found that the car had been driving for more than an hour. He didn't know where he was going to be taken to, and he wasn't even sure if the other party was the one who kidnapped Leila. But as long as there is the slightest hope of meeting Lyra, he wants to take a risk!
Finally, the car stopped.
Roy couldn't see outside in the carriage, but the voices coming in from the outside knew that they should have come from the middle of nowhere, through the town, to an inhabited place. Because he could hear the screams of children struggling and some loud yelling.
"Get out of the car. "There was a knock on the carriage outside.
Roy opened the door and jumped in, giving him time to look outside.
It's a lot like the slums he saw in TV and movies, the houses are dilapidated as far as the eye can see, but it's much better than the house he saw in the village next door to the crew, at least this one still has a bit of a house.
"Follow me. "The man leading the way had already taken off his military uniform and looked no different from an ordinary resident.
Roy pursed his lips and silently followed him.
The streets here are very narrow, and the two of them are a bit crowded side by side, and when you meet someone on the opposite side, you have to turn sideways to get past each other, no wonder the car has to be parked outside.
It was a lot like a hillside area, and Roy found that they kept going up, and the further they went, the more the gap between the rich and the poor seemed to be. If the slums below were literal slums, the surrounding houses would now be indistinguishable from ordinary residents.
And they are still going up, if I guessed correctly, the above should be the area where the boss lives, then the environment and the house are also the best.
The most uncomfortable thing is the scrutinizing gaze that comes along the way. Countless eyes, some standing in the street, others out of sight, staring straight at Roy. These men may not be Martin's men, but they are happy to report their findings for a small amount of money.
He now believed Xiao Yu's words, under the gaze of so many people, I am afraid that no matter how powerful a person is, he will not be able to avoid so many eyes and sneak in quietly. Once their men come in and are discovered, Martin will surely be able to hide Lyra somewhere else in the shortest amount of time. That way, maybe they'll never see her again.
After walking on the steep path for about half an hour, they finally stopped.
It was a large house, at least with a barbed wire perimeter wall compared to the surrounding ones. It's probably the biggest building along the way.
"Wait here. The leader left this sentence and left.
Roy glanced at his back expressionlessly, then glanced around again. At least ten or more people were glaring at him with a wary and fierce look. Almost all of the people who could stay here were Martin's most elite men, and everyone had seen blood on their hands more than once, and if they were a cowardly, they would have fainted with fright.
But who is Roy? If it were to be worth the force, he wouldn't lose to anyone in the room. But he turned a blind eye to those defiant gazes, he had come to see Leila, and until then he didn't want any contingencies to disrupt his plans.
A moment later, the iron door opened, and out of it came a well-mannered man in a white shirt and glasses. Just looking at his appearance, it is estimated that no one will regard him as a gangster, and would rather believe that he is a corporate elite in IT or finance.
"Welcome, Mr. Ji Xing. He looked at him, then held out his hand, "Welcome here." I'm Mr. Martin's subordinate, you can call me Flender. ”
Roy didn't shake his hand, and said with a cold face, "I want to see Leila." ”
"Of course. As if he didn't realize that he had been rejected, Flender made a gesture of invitation without showing any embarrassment: "Please go this way." ”
Roy glanced at him, and his heart sank. Such an invisible, moody person is the type he least likes to deal with, in Xiao Xi's words, "well-dressed on the outside, but bad on the inside".
With such a person by Martin's side, I'm afraid it will be much more difficult to rescue Leila. And the appearance of this person also made him understand one thing, why Martin was stupid enough to kidnap Leila to make a movie for him, but he was smart enough to steal her out in front of hundreds of people?
When he saw this Flender, everything was clear, it must be this man who was plotting! He did not believe that there would be a second wise man in such a den of thieves who would like to live in the shadows for the rest of his life.
"The front is where Director Moran lives, so I won't disturb the two of you to meet. Flender pointed to a house in front of him, nodded and turned to leave.
He walked crisply, so fast that one wondered if he wasn't worried that he would take Leila with him. But this idea was only thrown away in Roy's mind, because even if he was several times more powerful than he was now, it was probably impossible to take Leila away under the surveillance of countless people.
Today is the ninth day of Lyra's disappearance, and he leaves her like a fish out of water, and it feels like life force is all gone with her.
And now, even if he hasn't seen Leila yet, just feeling the breath of her presence has brought him back to life.
He ran towards the house step by step, step by step, and step by step.
It's been too long!
