At midnight, the village was desolate and the mountains were covered with cold wind.
In the glamour warehouse, which was abandoned in the north of the city, the light was as dim as ghost fire.
Suddenly, the sound of the giant truck's engine came and broke the dead silence.
"Can they really let Dot go?" Essie jumped out of the car, trembling in extreme anxiety and panic.
"Keep calm and play it by my eyes." Said Zac in a low and deep voice.
There were several strange figures hiding in the dark. They were all paying close attention to the situation in the warehouse.
Zac walked into the warehouse, and Essie followed closely behind him.
The messy cartons and stale smell of the warehouse came from the air.
"We are already here. Where is the child?" Said Zac in a low voice, his words echoing in the air.
A black shadow appeared in front of the fence on the second floor. He wore a black cloak and a skull mask. "Have you taken the money?" He said in a low voice deliberately.
"It is in the container. Where's the kid?" There was a bloodthirsty murderous look in Zac' cold eyes.
A beam of light was projected from the black shadow and aimed at the darkest corner of the warehouse.
The child's thin figure slowly appeared.
He was hanging in midair, eyes closed and motionless, as if in a coma.
"Dot --" Essie screamed in panic. She rushed madly over and tried to hold the child, but she couldn't reach him. "What did you do to my child?"
"Don't worry. He just took a few sleeping pills, but..." There was a sinister laugh coming from the second floor. Then the person went away, and the beam of light disappeared as well. Darkness covered them again.
Essie turned on the flashlight of her cellphone and said, "Zac, put him down." Before she finished speaking, she saw a red light flashed out of the child's body, and then there was the click sound, as if a time had been activated.
Startled, Zac looked at the dazzling red light: 40, 39, 38...
"Damn it!" He grabbed Essie, "come on! It's a time bomb!"
She used up all her strength to cry and shout, and

same time, a faint sneer crossed the corners of Alice's mouth. 'It is great that Essie is mad. Perhaps I can take this opportunity to get the Xu Group back.' Alice thought excitedly.
