Chapter 1050: Escape

Chapter 1049: Escape

Forty minutes later, E-Goat walked out of the hut where Xu Qian was.

His eyes were filled with sadness as if he had lost his soul.

Qiu Ming looked behind E-Goat and found that he was the only one. He looked stunned. “Where’s Xu Qian?”

“Didn’t she say that she decided to stay?” E-Goat choked.

“I’m not deaf. I heard what she said. How did you persuade her?”

“…”

“Wait, brother, did you really watch the rest of the movie with her?”Qiu Ming asked suspiciously.

“I couldn’t say anything about the atmosphere at that time. She was leaning on my shoulder. We were very close…” E-Goat replied weakly.

“I finally know how all the sad and beautiful love stories are developed,” Qiu Ming sighed.

“So… Should I have done something?” E-Goat asked humbly.

“What else?”Qiu Ming patted E-Goat’s shoulder. “I’ve been dealing with women because of my work, and I’m quite experienced when it comes to these things. Most women can make decisions in a hurry because of their emotions. The key is to master the skill is to persuade her.”

“How do I master this kind of skill?” E-Goat almost pulled out his notebook.

“There’s no need to go through so much trouble,” added Zhang Heng. “Just knock her out and take her away. Anyway, it’s too late for you to learn now. In the near future, New Shanghai 0297 will probably undergo a drastic change. By then, her worries will probably be gone.”

“Is that true?” E-Goat couldn’t help but jump in joy when he heard that. However, his expression quickly became nervous again. “But how are we going to get her out of here?”

“Don’t worry, I’ll solve this problem,” Qiu Ming said. “Isn’t that why you brought me along?”

Qiu Ming’s plan was very simple. Xu Qian was such a big person, and she was in a coma. There was no way she could be carried out of the house like that. Therefore, a container that could store her would be required, and one that was inconspicuous as well. The metal boxes transported by the forklift truck were the most suitable because they were meant to transport people who were transferred to other cities.

After confirming the plan, the three of them split up. Zhang Heng returned to Xu Qian’s house and was responsible for knocking her out. E-Goat followed Qiu Ming to drive the forklift truck and carry the metal boxes. Then, the three of them regrouped outside Xu Qian’s house. They put the unconscious Xu Qian into the metal boxes.

These special metal boxes were prepared initially for long-distance transportation of living people, so there was no need to worry about oxygen. Then, Zhang Heng drove the forklift with the metal boxes into the freight elevator at the side and went down to the station below.

After waiting for about ten minutes, E-Goat and Qiu Ming slipped down from the top. At this time, Zhang Heng had already found a truck without a driver. He put the metal box containing Xu Qian on it, and E-Goat went into the cargo box to accompany Xu Qian, while Qiu Ming took his place in the passenger seat.

After Zhang Heng started the car, Qiu Ming spoke.

“This tunnel leads directly to a hidden dock. Shengtang Morgan built it to dock the spaceship used to transport job seekers. In addition, these metal boxes will also be sent to other cities.”

“I don’t plan to leave New Shanghai 0297 for the time being. We’ll get off midway,” Zhang Heng said.

“That’s what I plan to do as well, but this tunnel was built to connect the dock and the base. It’s completely sealed off, and there’s no other exit in the middle.”

Zhang Heng didn’t say a word. He waited quietly for Qiu Ming to continue.

“But the good news is that there’s a maintenance point for this tunnel every certain distance. Normally, the maintenance point is locked, but a very serious traffic accident happened a few days ago. Thus, one of the maintenance points was opened, and we can leave from there.”

…

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the place Qiu Ming had mentioned.

As expected, there was a sign that was being repaired. Zhang Heng parked the car in front of the sign, but then he realized that the gate of the maintenance point was actually closed.

Qiu Ming’s expression changed slightly. “Normally, the maintenance cycle for an accident of this level takes three days. It’s only been two days, so there’s no reason for it to be repaired so quickly.”

E-Goat was carrying Xu Qian out of the metal box. When he heard this, he poked its head out of the car and asked anxiously.

“Then what do we do now?”

Qiu Ming also looked a little helpless. “If we can’t leave here, then we can only think of other ways to leave. However, the problem is that it’s very difficult for us to drag the unconscious Xu Qian through so many departments. Furthermore, to leave through the main door, everyone needs to verify their fingerprints, work ID, and electronic ID.”

Zhang Heng then pointed at a piece of glass in front of Qiu Ming and asked, “What if we just break it into pieces?”

“This is made of special explosion-proof glass, and it has a certain degree of elasticity. Even a car won’t be able to break it. Of course, if we’re prepared, it’s not like we can’t cut it.”

“What can we use to cut it open? A laser knife?”

“Military laser knives can be used, but we don’t have that kind of equipment on hand.”

“Who said that?”

Zhang Heng returned to the car and took out some Lego blocks to form a military laser knife. He then inserted the Infinite building block into it. When he appeared in front of Qiu Ming and E-Goat with the real military laser knife in his hand, they were dumbfounded.

“Where did this thing come from? is your real identity Doraemon, and do you have a four-dimensional pocket?!”

Zhang Heng did not answer. He had already picked up the laser knife and cut the explosion-proof glass in front of him. It took him about 15 minutes to finally cut a small opening that could allow one person to pass through. Meanwhile, E-Goat had also carried Xu Qian out of the metal box.

The four of them passed through the small opening that Zhang Heng had cut and drilled out of the tunnel. Even when they saw the sky above them, the E-Goat still could not believe that they had really escaped from the secret base of the magnificent Tang Corporation.

Xu Qian, who was lying on the ground behind him, was breathing steadily and was sleeping soundly. E-Goat’s arm was a little numb, but he still did not move, fearing he would wake Xu Qian up from her sleep.

Zhang Heng and Qiu Ming had already started to search for cars in the surroundings. Finally, Zhang Heng found an extended antique oil truck in a manor and drove the four of them to the station.

It wasn’t until the shuttle left the fifth floor that the four of them were truly out of danger. Zhang Heng used a fake ID to open two guest rooms on the second floor, one for E-Goat and Xu Qian, and the other for Qiu Ming and himself.

“When can I leave?” Qiu Ming asked Zhang Heng carefully in the guest room.

“Wait until the change happens,” Zhang Heng said. Although Qiu Ming had always been very sincere and had been very cooperative, Zhang Heng still didn’t fully trust him. Because of his previous promise, however, he did not kill Qiu Ming.
