Owen, once a businessman in the Norton Republic, ostensibly dealt in building materials, but in reality he was a smuggler.
Originally, if he had continued to operate in this way with his channels, the possibility of being caught would have been extremely low, but he was too greedy and interfered with the distribution of the lucrative slave trade, eventually ruining his reputation and being wanted.
Now, Owen’s information is on the wanted list of the Norton Republic, with a reward of 1.5 million.
“Only 1.5 million.”
Owen couldn’t help but sneer as he looked at the wanted list that was being played in a loop on the car’s display.
In order to escape the Norton Republic’s pursuit, he owed three times that amount.
However, Owen’s funds had been completely frozen now, and he was facing double pursuit from the Norton Republic government and his creditors.
This was why he took the risk to attack Kasha.
Of course, all the information about Kasha was provided by a short man who suddenly came to the door.
Of course, Owen was full of distrust towards the dwarf who had never dared to show his true face, but he was no longer afraid of danger.
After completing this mission and getting the ransom provided by the Kasha Nitat family, he would use the money to flee to the Chinese Eagle Federation.
The reason why Owen left for three days this time was to contact the mysterious short man.
The other party deliberately set the meeting point in a coastal city that was a day’s drive away from here – a city nearly 2,000 kilometers away from Formula City.
Except for a day of rest after meeting the dwarf, Owen, who had been driving all day, felt unwell as soon as he got out of the car, especially since he hadn’t taken a shower for three days.
His white suit even smelled of sweat.
This place is a relatively remote warehouse near the sea.
There are no houses around it, so no matter what sound is made, there is no need to worry about anyone hearing it.
There is a dungeon inside the warehouse, and Owen chose this place as his residence because of the dungeon.
After driving the car into the garage, Owen found that another car in the garage seemed to have been touched.
“That guy Hank, could it be that he sneaked out to play?”
Owen came to the dungeon entrance with an unhappy look on his face, and patted the security door leading to the dungeon: “Hank! Hank!”
No one responded.
Faintly smelling the odor of alcohol coming from inside, Owen cursed under his breath, then ran back to the upstairs room and searched for a long time before finding the key.
“This guy, I’m going to stuff an orange into his eyes!”
“Bang!”
After the heavy security door was pushed open, Owen walked down cursing, and then he saw empty beer bottles all over the floor, a pile of smelly vomit and wine stains, and Hank was nowhere to be seen.
Owen guessed that he was probably hiding in some corner after drinking too much.
There was also a peculiar smell in the dungeon, but it was covered by the smell of alcohol and vomit.
Owen thought it was the smell of stomach acid, so he didn’t pay too much attention to it.
Owen let out a tut and roared, not bothering to look for Hank.
Instead, he turned and looked at the cell, at the motionless figure covered with a blanket inside: “Why, little brother, have you signed?”
Then, Owen glanced at the place where the cell bars were twisted.
Although the twist was not serious, it still scared Owen: “You are quite strong. Fortunately, I knocked you out at the beginning.”
The figure lying on the ground was still motionless.
Owen frowned and said, “Don’t pretend. I just want some money from you. There’s no need to risk your life. Even though he’s just a country noble, that little money shouldn’t be a big deal to you.”
The other party still didn’t respond.
“Is he really starving to death? Hank is such an idiot. Why can’t he adapt to changes?”
Owen took the key from his waist and muttered, “You’ve been hungry for three days anyway. I don’t believe you still have the strength.”
Of course, even if the opponent still has strength, Owen is not afraid.
He is not an ordinary person.
Don’t look at Hank’s tall stature, even five or six of them are no match for Owen.
As Owen reached for the padlock with the key.
“Sizzle!”
A strong electric current instantly penetrated his whole body, and Owen fell to the ground trembling.
“I’ve been here, waiting for you.”
A tired-looking young man came out from under the table.
His voice was very hoarse.
It was Kasha, whom Owen kidnapped!
At this time, Kasha’s wrist was covered with bite marks, and there was a new bite mark with blood that had not yet coagulated.
This was left by Kasha in order to force himself not to fall asleep, because if the other party could find him and catch him once, there was a possibility that they would catch him a second time.
Kasha wanted to avoid future troubles, so he kept forcing himself not to fall asleep even though he was already extremely exhausted, and kept biting his wrist to stimulate himself through pain to stay awake.
He was afraid that he would miss this opportunity.
As Kasha stood up, Owen, whose body was stiffened by the electric shock, saw the electric baton in his hand and the two thin filaments connected to the baton.
The thin filaments were pulled out from the vomit on the ground as Kasha moved.
It turned out that these two extremely thin metal wires were connected to the iron door of the cell, which was covered by the vomit and water stains on the ground!
Owen narrowed his eyes slightly.
He didn’t expect that Kasha, whom he thought was a sure thing, actually escaped and set such a trap for him!
“You want to know how I got out without any tools and after being hungry for three days?”
Kasha picked up the electric baton and touched Owen’s neck and hit him again.
Then he picked up a wine bottle on the table and poured it directly on Owen.
A special smell spread, but Owen didn’t care.
He just thought Kasha was humiliating him.
“I won’t tell you.”
Kasha showed a smile on his tired face: “You underestimate me.”
“You too underestimated me.”
Owen suddenly turned over and slowly climbed up with the help of the wall: “I will not be knocked down by this level of electric baton. This kind of thing can only slightly affect my actions.”
In fact, Owen reacted the moment he was electrocuted, but he did not get up immediately.
Instead, he pretended to fall to the ground.
Sure enough, Kasha really ran out by himself.
Since he dared to appear again, Owen would certainly not let him go.
Although the electric baton was not completely ineffective on him, it only paralyzed his body.
In the eyes of Owen, who has lived more than 20 years longer than Kasha, Kasha is not his opponent at all.
This young man is still too naive.
“No, I always think highly of you.”
Kasha lowered his eyes, holding a lighter in his hand: “The kind of high.”
Throwing the lit lighter at Owen, Kasha turned around and ran outside.
The liquid on Owen’s body was instantly ignited as soon as it came into contact with the flame.
The liquid was gasoline!
When Kasha ran away, he immediately chased after him, but the electric shock slowed him down.
Outside the security door, Kasha directly inserted the iron rod he had prepared into the bolt.
“Let me out! Let me out! Ah! Ahhhh!!! Let me out! Help! Save me! I’ll tell you a secret! Ah! Yes, someone gave me the information and asked me to catch you! Save me! Save me out and I’ll tell you! Ah! Ahhhh!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!”
Owen banged on the door frantically.
He was very strong, and the iron rod that was stuck on the bolt was even twisted and deformed quickly.
But Owen was only a human being after all.
Even though he was much stronger than ordinary people, he still couldn’t break through the door with his physical strength.
Soon, Kasha heard Owen’s increasingly tragic wails, especially when he ran back to pick up other bottles and tried to use these low-alcohol beer to put out the fire.
However, the gasoline in the bottles that Kasha had replaced long ago made the fire more intense, and Owen’s screams seemed even more heartbreaking.
Outside the door, Kasha collapsed on the ground, tearing his hair tightly with both hands, letting the sound behind him gradually become weaker and finally disappear.
