Chapter 214: Factory Explosion

With an anxious expression, Jin Yang climbed to an advantageous spot with his bare hands. He took out a short-range telescope and surveyed the location. He discovered that there were two windows on the dilapidated red brick wall. He recalled the light signal Qiu Tong had used at home when she was playing with the children. He turned around and asked the guard beside him, “Do you have a mirror?”

The guard was taken aback but he quickly found a square mirror.

Jin Yang slowly adjusted the angle of the light. He focused the light on the window and used Qiu Tong’s secret signal to communicate with the interior…

Qiu Tong leaned against the stone pillar and was elated to see the shimmering light on the opposite wall.

She understood the message Jin Yang was trying to convey. She looked at Dina and said loudly, “I want to go to the bathroom!”

Dina was focused on pressing his subordinate to concoct the medicine according to Qiu Tong’s formula. He waved his hand and gestured for his other men to bring her to a corner.

Qiu Tong’s hands were tied with hemp rope. She hid in a safe corner and quietly counted down.

Three, two, one… with the violent sounds of explosives being thrown in, two groups of presidential guards attacked from outside.

The terrorists dodged in panic. Dina was the first to react. He rushed to Qiu Tong’s side and grabbed her neck. He said ruthlessly, “I underestimated you! I didn’t expect you to be able to contact the outside world and find us here!”

“If you surrender now, I can plead with them to spare your life.”

Qiu Tong saw Dina’s bloodshot eyes. He was now forced to the brink of death and had a desperate do-or-die attitude. She hurriedly tried to calm him.

Dina snorted.

“Surrender? And return to prison? I have lung cancer and won’t be able to live for long!”

“The doctors in the prison are all useless. Since I’m going to die, why don’t I drag a few people along with me!”

Dina lowered his head and pointed the gun at Qiu Tong. He chuckled and whispered into her ear, “With you accompanying me to my grave, I won’t be lonely on the road to hell!”

“Qiu Tong!”

Jin Yang barged in with his team. He shouted loudly when he saw Dina and Qiu Tong.

Qiu Tong met his gaze and stepped down firmly on Dina’s foot. She dodged to the side.

Dina raised his hand to grab her, but Jin Yang shot him in the elbow and ankle.

Bang!

Dina fell to the ground. Jin Yang ran to Qiu Tong’s side and helped her up. He asked anxiously, “Are you alright?”

Qiu Tong nodded. The terrorists were fighting for their lives. The situation in the abandoned factory was dangerous.

The presidential guards managed to subdue most of the terrorists. Jin Yang indicated that they could escort the prisoners back. As Qiu Tong had sprained her ankle while escaping, she could only slowly walk towards the door with Jin Yang’s help. “Where are the children?”

Jin Yang comforted her softly. “Ke Le is taking care of them. They don’t know what happened here.”

Qiu Tong heaved a sigh of relief, but she suddenly heard the sound of a ring being pulled from behind. She stopped in her tracks and turned around. She saw Dina standing in the corner, holding two hand grenades and two boxes of explosives beside his feet. “Since I am going to die, you are all coming along with me!”

Jin Yang didn’t expect there to be so many weapons and equipment here. They were still 20 meters away from the door and it would be too late to escape.

“Get down!”

Jin Yang raised his hand and covered Qiu Tong’s head, before enveloping her in his arms.

Boom—

Flames surged several meters high in the abandoned factory. The red brick wall collapsed, turning the scene into a sea of fire.

Qiu Tong felt a warm liquid flowing down her forehead. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Jin Yang smiling at her. He said softly, “As long as you’re safe!”

Qiu Tong felt her chest tighten, and the smell of gunpowder filled the air.

She saw many guards running towards them through the flames. “President…”

Jin Yang held her hand tightly and muttered, “You’re not allowed to die!”

Qiu Tong fainted.

Qiu Tong seemed to have had a very long dream. In the dream, there was a blurry figure holding her hand, but she could not see that person’s face.

There were the sounds of children crying around her. Qiu Tong felt as if there were two beams of light swaying in front of her eyes, dazzling and harsh.

“Can the patient hear me? Follow the light and move your eyes.”

Qiu Tong gradually woke up and saw the white coat and the children standing by the bed, as well as Song Yan.

She wanted to speak, but she felt a sharp pain in her throat, as if countless hands were tearing at her vocal cords.

The doctor turned to Song Yan and said, “The patient’s life is not in danger. She just needs to rest well.”

Song Yan nodded and sent him off. Qiu Xingyu rushed to the bed and held Qiu Tong’s hand with red eyes. “Mommy, is it very painful? Don’t do such dangerous things anymore, okay?”

Qiu Xingqiao wiped his snot with the back of his hand and tugged at Little Yu’s hand. “Sister, you are pressing down on her IV line.”

Qiu Tong raised her hand and rubbed the top of Little Yu’s head with a comforting smile.

Her gaze landed on Song Yan as she asked slowly, “What about him?”
