Quick Transmigration: Forbidden to Covet Beautiful NPCs
Chapter 304 The Impoverished Golden Phoenix 17
I heard a crunching sound behind me.
Wu Tongxue turned around, her pupils shrinking. "What are you doing?"
In the corner, Fang Mingxu sat casually on the ground, grabbing a handful of dog food and stuffing it into his mouth, chewing and swallowing.
Wu Tongxue felt a headache coming on; Fang Mingxu was indeed sick.
He walked over. "What are you going to do?"
They brought him here but didn't do anything. They just stayed in a room with him, acting all neurotic. They didn't try to negotiate or ask for anything in return, nor did they torture him.
Fang Mingxu threw his head back and laughed, then held out his hand to him, "Want to have one last meal?"
His laughter was maniacal; he was extremely happy.
Wu Tongxue suddenly smelled smoke; something was burning.
He ran to the door, squatted down, and looked down. Sure enough, smoke was drifting in through the crack in the door.
"You set the villa on fire?!"
He couldn't believe it. Fang Mingxu had been with him; was he going to die with him?!
Fang Mingxu struggled to his feet, leaning against the wall for support. He dusted off his sleeves, a wide grin spreading across his face. "Guess what I'm going to do next?"
Wu Tongxue had already looked through the entire room and found that there were no usable tools at all.
The room has a floor-to-ceiling window made of bulletproof glass, and a small vent in the bathroom has iron bars welded on to it.
The door was locked and couldn't be opened at all.
Seeing Fang Mingxu take out a lighter and walk towards the curtains, he quickly rushed over and snatched it away.
Even a cripple couldn't beat him.
They simply snatched his cane, tore off the blanket, soaked it in the bathroom, and used it to block the door crack.
He shook the door, but there was no sound of chains outside. His eyes brightened slightly; there was still hope.
"Where's the key?" he asked Fang Mingxu.
Before I knew it, Fang Mingxu was sitting back in the corner, with a half-eaten bowl of dog food next to him.
He closed his eyes, pretending not to hear.
Wu Tongxue approached him, her gaze sweeping over him, and asked again, "Where's the key?"
Fang Mingxu tilted his head and turned directly towards the wall.
Wu Tongxue took a deep breath and searched him directly, but found nothing.
They then searched other parts of the room.
Fang Mingxu stiffly turned his head, his gaze blank as he watched him rummage around.
He opened his mouth, then closed it again.
Wu Tongxue didn't give up. Judging from Fang Mingxu's reaction, the key must be in this room.
……
Xiao Jinghan sped over and came to a stop at the villa gate with a swerve.
Upon seeing the smoke billowing out, his pupils contracted.
"Contact the fire department!"
After getting off the bus, I saw a group of people blocking my way.
"You can't go in."
Enraged, Xiao Jinghan smashed down the front door, yelling, "Idiot, didn't you see it's on fire inside?"
Li Wu: "Our young master is inside too."
It means don't rush.
Xiao Jinghan: "Is he crazy? Burning himself?"
Li Wu remained silent, revealing a red bracelet flashing on his wrist. "You cannot go in before the young master comes out."
Xiao Jinghan recognized it as a biometric information transmission bracelet, which was bound to a bomb. Once the bound person pressed the button or lost vital signs, the bomb would automatically explode.
He calmed down. "What does Fang Mingxu want?"
Li Wu remained silent.
Xiao Jinghan turned around and kicked the car hard. "You're sick!"
She went back and said, "Let him call me."
Li Wu shook his head. "Sorry, please wait a moment."
Xiao Jinghan was so angry she laughed.
My phone rang, and though I was anxious, I went over to answer it after seeing who was calling.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Jinghan suddenly left.
Li Wu was slightly surprised, but he didn't pay any attention to it. He stood there like a gatekeeper, listening to the reports from his subordinates in various places through his earpiece.
His task was to guard this place and prevent anyone from getting close.
Lou Zixuan called Xiao Jinghan. He had someone open a gap in the back, but they were also being watched, so Xiao Jinghan was asked to take the opportunity to go in with her men.
……
Wu Tongxue searched the room three times and finally found the key hidden in the cotton of the pillow.
Fang Mingxu had been listless for a long time, as if he had lost his soul, neither speaking nor moving.
When he saw the key, he finally snapped out of his daze, his eyes darting around slightly. "How did you find it?"
"How can you be so calm?"
"Fire, aren't you afraid of fire?"
"It's all Lou Wujiu's fault. He's the one who harmed you and failed to come to your rescue."
Fang Mingxu leaned against the corner of the wall, laughing incessantly, his laughter eerie.
While laughing, I suddenly choked, "Cough cough cough—cough cough—cough cough—"
Ignoring him, Wu Tongxue went to the door to try the key.
It can be turned when inserted, and you can hear the lock cylinder sliding.
With a quick twist, the door opened by covering it with something.
The corridor, once carpeted and adorned with oil paintings, is now blackened by fire, with leaping flames licking at everything and orange light illuminating the entire passageway.
Dust and smoke rushed towards her, and Wu Tongxue took a step back, choking on the smoke and covering her mouth and nose.
The bathroom vents are too small to provide adequate ventilation.
He paused by the door, turned to look at Fang Mingxu, who was still huddled in the corner, and frowned.
He walked back and said, "Get up."
If you leave him here, he'll really let himself die in this fire; his eyes show a complete disregard for his own life.
I don't know if I'll run into Fang Mingxu's men outside. If I bring them along, I can use them to threaten him.
Seeing that Fang Mingxu looked half-dead, there was no time to waste here, so they directly pulled him up.
The villa's interior features marble floors, not wooden floors, which eased Wu Tongxue's anxiety.
The water in the bathroom has been cut off. Needless to say, it was Fang Mingxu who had it done again, showing he really doesn't value his own life.
He draped the blanket over the two of them, then grabbed Fang Mingxu and ran outside.
Wu Tongxue was strong, so dragging a cripple along was no problem for her.
He ran to the end of the corridor, and the heat seeped through his shoes to the soles of his feet, but luckily his shoes had thick soles.
Suddenly, he saw a figure, but before he could see it clearly, Fang Mingxu pushed him away.
It rolled straight down the stairs.
"Xiao Jinghan?"
Xiao Jinghan narrowed his eyes and stared at Fang Mingxu with murderous intent. He was quick and agile and managed to regain his balance. He only had a slightly twisted ankle, but it was nothing serious.
Wu Tongxue was unfamiliar with the layout of the villas here. "Which way do we go?"
Two dark gray streaks appeared on his fair face, though his eyes remained bright.
Xiao Jinghan relaxed slightly, relieved that nothing was wrong.
"Come this way, follow me."
Wu Tongxue pulled Fang Mingxu along to catch up.
After exiting through a side door, Wu Tongxue finally breathed in fresh air and caught her breath.
Fang Mingxu was handed over to Xiao Jinghan and subdued by him.
Fang Mingxu's men surrounded the area, some openly, some covertly. On the outermost layer, Xiao Jinghan spotted the Lou family members.
"Get out of the way," Xiao Jinghan threatened them, using Fang Mingxu as an example.
Li Wu looked at his young master.
Fang Mingxu stared at Wu Tongxue, coughing occasionally.
Why was he able to remain so calm? What gave him the right?
Without giving any instructions, Li Wu hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand to clear a path for the others.
"No, they must not be allowed to go back."
"Go back, go back, we have to go back, there must not be enough time." Fang Mingxu began to struggle.
