"Who's on the key?" Brooke's gaze swept over Tang Ji and the others, and he paused, "You guys?" Or let's search? As he spoke, Brooke's eyes deliberately moved back and forth over Mannie and Christine's faces, and it was not as simple as he wanted to search, and in the other part of the store stood two of Brooke's men, who laughed maliciously at the same time, including the short and fat man in his fifties.

"There are no keys, the car was stolen by us, you can go and see it." Tang Ji immediately spoke.

"Is that so?" Brooke asked, turning around.

"Under the steering wheel...... Near the keyhole...... It was taken apart, and the wires were exposed. The young black man nodded, thinking about it intermittently, and the expression was quite clear.

Brooke's brows froze slightly, no key is a trouble, even if his people have the ability to start two cars now, but if the car suddenly turns off on the road, it must be very troublesome to start again, he turned his head and glanced at Tang Ji and the others, as if he wanted to ask who stole the car, but in the end he didn't ask, but said to the people around him: "I'll take a look, you guys are optimistic about them!" ”

"Go tell the people up there to come down, don't it, we'll leave as soon as the car starts!" Brooke hurried out with the young black man, and said to a middle-aged man by the side of the truck on the street.

The door of the store was not closed, and Tang Ji and the others could hear Brooke's words, and soon a person ran into the store, walked through the entire store, and walked down the stairs in the corner to the second floor, and there were only two of Brooke's men left in the store, and there were five people on the street, and one went upstairs.

Tang Ji's eyes slowly scanned the environment of the small shop, and his eyes fell on the two people who were guarding him and the others, one was an old man, with a big beard and a short and fat stature, and the other was almost thirty years old, his hair was unconventionally combed, and it was fixed with hairspray, and he looked dignified and decent, of course, this was just looking, his eyes were very dishonest at this time, and he kept falling on Maniela, Maniela was tied behind her back, sitting on the ground and leaning against the wall, The neckline is a little bigger, and it opens very low.

The man kept looking at the two flesh colors exposed on Maniela's chest, and his eyes looked out of the door from time to time, as if he was about to move, but he had some scruples about the outside, he should be scruples about Brooke, now is the time to do "business", Brooke does not allow him to mess around.

Moreover, the woman boss who has just arrived has not tasted it yet, how dare the younger brother do it?

Tang Ji and these people are all sitting against a wall, the outermost Maniela, and then Robbie, Mike Sr., Jason, Laura, Christine, Tang Ji, and the innermost position against the corner of the wall is the old strong man and daughter, they are leaning together, almost three meters away from Tang Ji.

Maneela's face was ugly, from the eyes of the man who had been staring at her, she understood the fate she might suffer, and there was inevitably a sense of misery in her heart, although she was a memora-woman before the end of the world, but compulsion and voluntariness are completely different things, she slightly twisted her head and glanced at Tang Ji, for some reason, she couldn't bring up the slightest resentment against Tang Ji in her heart, it was Tang Ji who asked everyone to put down their guns and tie their hands and arrest them, between being humiliated and fighting to survive, Maniela would definitely choose the latter, but ...... She still listened to Tang Ji's words.

"If you dare to stuff that thing into the old lady's mouth, the old lady will definitely bite it off!" For some reason, this murderous sentence suddenly appeared in Manilla's mind!

Old Mike and Laura both had worries on their faces, Jason was sighing and hanging his head, optimistic that he couldn't make a deal at this time, and Christine, who was on the right side of Tangji, was still crying with her lips pursed, the kind that didn't make a sound and only shed tears, and the makeup on her face was crying, looking pitiful.

Rumble...... Click-Click-Click...... Burst......

The big truck outside started a little, but immediately turned off, it seems that Brooke's ability to steal cars is very average, and it is not very easy to start the truck successfully, however, Brooke did not ask Tang Ji and others to start the car, probably out of caution, the starting car is to sit in the driver's seat, hands and feet must cooperate, what if you meet a master who can quickly start and run on the accelerator, this is all possible, in fact, if he really does this, this kind of thing will definitely happen, and it will be more excessive, Robbie, who has his hand loosened, will not only start the car, but will also knock Brooke out of when he is very close to him.

An excellent soldier who was born in the army and won the Silver Star Medal, if it weren't for illness, Robbie would not have left the army so early, he is fully capable of becoming a counterattack weapon for Don Ji and others, but Brooke didn't give him a chance, he has the ability to start the car, but it is a little slower, and there is no need to take risks at all.

"Are you alright? Don't cry...... Everything will be fine. Tang Ji suddenly turned his head to look at Christine beside him, and whispered, Christine also turned her head to look at Tang Ji, gently bit her lower lip with tears, and sobbed twice.

The two men in the room who were guarding Tang Ji and the others all heard Tang Ji talking, but they just turned their heads to look at them and didn't say anything.

What they didn't notice was that just as Tang Ji turned his head to speak, there was a very small "pop" sound, and if people heard it, they could generally hear what it was, the sound of the snap in the button being torn open.

The cuffs of the jacket and leather jacket that Don Ji wore were tightened with brass-colored metal snap buttons, which had been buttoned together until now, and just as he was just speaking, he was holding his hands tied behind his back, his left hand bent and pressed the cuffs, and his right hand ripped the snap buttons of the cuffs of his left sleeve.

Behind his back, the sharp tip of the knife slowly slipped out of Tang Ji's sleeve, and a silver-white metal handle was attached to the back...... It's a scalpel!

Don Guy had been in the habit of hiding a scalpel in his sleeve since that killing Andrew.

The scalpel with intact blades can cut through human flesh effortlessly, and the sharpness is naturally needless to say, after the knife was cut, Tang Ji held it in his hand, and then held it back, and began to gently rub the thin rope of the little mother's finger tied to his wrist with the blade, and the eyes of the whole process kept paying attention to Christine, as if he was comforting her with his eyes, and the movements behind her were also very slow, in order not to let people see anything.

Soon, the rope broke!

The way they were tied was to first wrap the rope around their necks, then around their arms, and finally tie their hands and wrists together, and the knot was on the wrist, that is, as long as the rope on the wrist was cut, then the binding would lose its effect, but Don Ji did not move, and still sat on the ground with his hands behind his back, he looked at Christine, suddenly showed a depressed expression, and whispered to Christine: "Cry if you want to, my shoulder can be lent to you." There was a hint of desperation in his words.

Christine looked at Tang Ji, suddenly her mouth flattened, she tilted her body, her head fell directly into Tang Ji's arms, and she cried, very depressed, and she didn't dare to make too loud noises.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Seeing Christine like this, the man in his thirties who had been staring at Maniela shouted with a gun and walked towards Don Quy and Christine.

"She's still a child, what the hell do you want?" Tang Ji looked at the approaching muzzle, his body shrank back, but he said stubbornly.

"Kid?" The man walked to the side of the two, squatted down with a gun, stretched out his hand and suddenly touched Christine's hair, and said, "Soon it won't be, haha." Saying that, he wanted to reach out and touch Christine's cheek, he was very close to Don Guy at this time, and Tang Guy was fully capable of suddenly bursting out and snatching the gun from his hand, but Don Guy didn't do that.

Christine's face drilled into Don Quixie's arms, dodging the man's hand, which seemed to be aroused by rebellion, and reached forward again, trying to touch Christine's face.

"Mindray, don't touch her, it's important to get down to business, the leader will be unhappy when he sees it, and you will play with it in the future, don't worry." The stocky old man in his fifties standing near the doorway reminded with a cigarette in his mouth, a shotgun clenched in his hand.

"Damn...... Nankov, old fellow, you take care of yourself, I don't have to worry about you. Mindray replied in an unhappy tone, but still stood up, looked at Christine, turned his head to look at Maniela, and suddenly walked away with a playful smile, as if thinking of something "good"!

It can be clearly felt that these people are a little afraid of Brooke, and they call Brooke the leader, and I don't know why.

Just as Mindray got up and walked to the side, Christine, who was crying in Tang Ji's arms, suddenly felt that the hand tied behind her back was lightly hit by something, and it seemed to be metal.

Christine's cry paused.

"It's a knife, it's sharp, be careful......" Don Quichi lowered his nose and rubbed his nose in Christine's hair, and spat out a few words in a voice that only two people could hear.

Christine was still crying, but the cry was much lowered, Tang Ji pinched the blade behind him, and hit Christine's hand a few times with the handle of the knife, and Christine pinched the end of the handle, because Christine was lying in Tang Ji's arms, and the two bodies were next to each other, and there was almost no gap in the middle, so the person in front of the person in front of the scalpel behind the scalpel could not see it.

Rumble...... Click-Click-Click...... Burst...... The truck outside started and stalled again, and Brooke's expletives faintly pierced into the store.

"Get up!" Tang Ji whispered.

Christine got the scalpel and slowly held it with her fingers, she had seen Donji's scalpel, so she still remembered the general structure of the scalpel.

Christine's crying became lower and lower, as if she was in a better mood, and then she wriggled her body and slowly got up from Tang Ji's arms and sat up straight.

"Ahem!" At this time, Tang Ji suddenly coughed heavily, and at the same time his body twisted and adjusted his sitting position, as if Christine was lying on him just now, which caused him to feel a little uncomfortable, this cough of course attracted the attention of others, of course, Mindray and Nankov, who were guarding Tang Ji and others, also noticed it, but they couldn't see anything from the front, but others saw it.

Whether it is Tang Ji's left or right side, the other people who are tied are in the same straight line as Tang Ji, when Tang Ji coughs, Christine just sat up straight, not leaning against the wall, that is to say, there is a gap between the body and the wall behind him, and the others are attracted by Tang Ji's coughing sound, and when they turn their heads to look over, their eyes will naturally pass by Christine, and they can more or less see Christine holding a scalpel in her hand.

Christine leaned against the wall, and everyone else looked away as if nothing had happened.
