Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1745
The security guard’s expression changed, but before he could do anything, his vision went blurry and he felt a pain in the back of his head. He soon lost consciousness.
Before long, a group of youngsters dressed like punks walked over.
“Master Charlton, all the people inside have been taken care of,” a man with permed hair said with a grim tone. “We were fast enough, so we managed to knock them out before they could contact anyone.”
“Well done.”
Elle gave him an appreciative look. Who knew that an attendant in a karaoke bar would be so skilled? Fortunately, they were able to make the people inside lower their guard by disguising themselves as a group of punks.
“There’s definitely something wrong with this karaoke bar, but the place is too big. We need to find the secret passages or storage units before dawn. There might be enough time, so capture the manager on duty and interrogate him. No matter what method you use, get him to spill the truth.”
“Understood.”
The Liona members swiftly dragged a manager into a room. Elle stood outside and listened to the miserable muffled sounds coming from inside.
Then, one of her men came out. “Master Charlton, he talked. There’s a secret passage in the warehouse downstairs.”
Elle immediately led the men to the warehouse. It was very messy there and the place was filled with all kinds of alcohol and snacks, as well as abandoned sofas, coffee tables, and the like. There was a thick layer of dust blanketing the place.
One of her subordinates sighed. “Thank God we interrogated him. No one would think it’s in a place like this.”
“Yes.” Elle had to admire Wesley’s caution. The place was too messy and seemed like no one would come here. However, there was actually a hidden passage here.
She found a dial inside the bottom drawer of a cabinet. After turning it, the cabinet moved to the side and revealed a very thick door.
