Chapter 1270: Chapter 1271: Your Blood Will Not Be Shed in Vain
Carrying Ning Ge out of the basement, Ning Le’s heart was filled with pain. Someone who used to be so robust was now so light, skin and bones, holding him was effortless. Just how many days had Fourth Uncle been imprisoned?
Qi Taiguo was pained too, but more overwhelmed with fury.
Once out of the basement, they retrieved fire to remove the leeches attached to Ning Ge’s body. Then they saw the scars all over him, knife wounds and others, his skin had been soaking in water for so long that the wounds were pale and rotting, it was a harrowing sight.
Ning Le’s eyes instantly reddened. His Fourth Uncle, who used to be clean and handsome, was now more dead than alive.
Qi Taiguo’s eyes reddened as well. Turning his gaze, he saw Mouse who was getting his leg gunshot wound bandaged. He walked over, forcefully pulled away the soldier helping with the bandages, then stomped on Mouse’s wounded leg again, and that wasn’t enough; he dislocated Mouse’s arms and snapped his wrists.
Mouse fainted from the pain.
The soldier witnessing Qi Taiguo’s madness was too terrified to make a sound, just staring blankly.
"No one is allowed to bandage him or put him back together!" Qi Taiguo was still not satisfied, furiously stomping Mouse’s ankle, jolting him awake from the pain.
Battalion Commander Jiang walked in and his expression changed several times. "Deputy Battalion Commander Qi..."
"Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle." Ning Le cried out, "Quick, call the doctor."
Qi Taiguo immediately rushed over, knelt on one knee, "Ning Ge!"
Ning Ge, extremely weak, coughed twice, blood spitting from his mouth, but he still managed a smile at Qi Taiguo and spoke intermittently, "You...you were...so slow."
"It’s my fault," Qi Taiguo’s eyes were red.
"Loo Family, the goods are going through Gui River, hurry, hurry and go..." With that said, Ning Ge tilted his head and passed out.
"Fourth Uncle!" Ning Le shouted anxiously.
Qi Taiguo quickly checked his pulse and said, "He’s just fainted. Get him to the hospital immediately."
Battalion Commander Jiang, seeing Ning Ge, was full of confusion as he looked at Qi Taiguo, waiting for his explanation. Who was this person and what was his background?
"This raid was possible due to the information he provided. He says the batch of goods that got away is heading through Gui River, Battalion Commander Jiang, we must pursue immediately." Qi Taiguo explained succinctly.
Battalion Commander Jiang understood at once, assuming Ning Ge was probably from an intelligence department, and responded hastily, "Customs and Navy have been notified to assist in interception."
"That’s not enough, both the people and goods escaped from us, we need to recover them, at least regain them in our hands." Qi Taiguo said, "It’s stolen property and evidence from this military factory."
Battalion Commander Jiang thought for a moment and agreed, "You’re right, let’s act immediately, leave a team to clear the scene." If Navy Customs catches them, the credit will be theirs, but such a large operation here with only minor gains was unacceptable.
Qi Taiguo didn’t care about his thoughts, turned and said, "Ning Le, assemble!"
"But Fourth Uncle..." Ning Le was worried.
"The mission isn’t over yet." Qi Taiguo commanded, glancing again at Ning Ge lying on the ground, "Someone will take him to the hospital for proper treatment."
Ning Le pursed his lips, clenched his teeth, stood up from the ground.
Military orders are absolute, no matter the cost, mission comes first.
Qi Taiguo assigned a team to wrap up, then instructed others to escort Ning Ge to the hospital, leaning close to his ear and whispered, "Rest assured, I will make sure your blood doesn’t spill in vain, will not let your suffering be in vain."
The Loo Family must pay the price for the suffering and blood Ning Ge endured.
