Chapter 1285: Chapter 39 Kidnapping

Little Red Riding Hood bared her teeth, flailing her hands around, and even lifted her legs to try and kick Tang Zheng’s face.

"Stop struggling!" Tang Zheng shook his arm a few times, and Little Red Riding Hood started to feel dizzy, but she didn’t give up her attack, opening her small mouth to bite down on his wrist.

The Xuanwu Protective Clothing was not likely to be breached, and Tang Zheng thought Little Lolita was just venting. But as soon as he turned back to check the road conditions, Little Red Riding Hood quickly pulled out a butterfly knife and, flicking her wrist, stabbed towards his arm.

The blade tore through the fabric, revealing the beautifully patterned Protective Clothing, and Little Red Riding Hood was dumbfounded.

"How is this possible?" Little Red Riding Hood’s attack with her teeth was actually a tactic to feign weakness, with her real killer move following behind. Despite her young age, she was full of cunning tricks, comparable to Lu Fan.

Tang Zheng took out a parachute rope and tied Little Red Riding Hood into a tight bundle; it would be too embarrassing to let her escape.

"No, please, I promise to behave... Uh uh!" Just as Little Red Riding Hood tried to act cute, a strip of tape was slapped over her mouth, silencing all her words.

The Werewolves were still in pursuit. Tang Zheng dashed into an alley, put away the Hell Motorcycle, and hopped onto rooftops, sneaking through a residence, quietly making a detour, trying to completely lose the Werewolves.

"Huh? They’re still following!" After running for five minutes and hiding in a street, Tang Zheng realized that a dozen Werewolves had caught up, "Forgot, you guys must have sharp noses."

The Werewolves didn’t use guns; instead, they drew their Curved knives and began to hack and slash.

"Werewolves are gentlemen?" Tang Zheng frowned. He wasn’t planning to engage in melee combat, drew his gun and fired in anger. Werewolves fell in droves, only two red-furred Elite Werewolves resisted the bullets and roared as they pounced.

Tang Zheng wielded his knife to block. As a Werewolf was about to strike again, a Warrior appeared behind it, swinging a Warhammer down and smashing one into the ground. Then he pulled out a Bronze Sword from his waist and stabbed it straight into its mouth, piercing through the skull.

The other lived three more seconds, before Tang Zheng’s knife pierced its heart and chopped off its Skull.

Little Red Riding Hood blinked her big eyes, which seemed to reflect the Azure Sky, sizing up Tang Zheng and the Werewolves, confused as to why these guys had kidnapped her.

"The Werewolves want to kill you and your grandmother. We’re here to protect you." Tang Zheng took out a deodorant spray, applied it to himself and quickly retreated. These props were prepared for dealing with tracking hounds, but he didn’t expect they would work on Werewolves.

"Where are you? Do you need support?" As soon as Tang Zheng opened his Walkie-talkie, Pang Meiqin’s anxious voice came through.

"I’m fine, I’ve caught Little Red Riding Hood and have withdrawn from the combat, how about you?" After making a series of turns and covering a great distance, Tang Zheng got back on the Motorcycle and headed back to the Team.

"The Werewolves have retreated, and we were just about to look for you." Dantai chimed in, reporting some good news.

"Why didn’t you take advantage of Tang Zheng’s absence and kill those riffraff?" Bai Guo, sitting in a Car, looked back with dissatisfaction and inquired.

"You’re just like your original, also an idiot." Li Xinlan mocked, "If you killed them, how would you explain when Tang Zheng returns? Don’t even say those Werewolves could kill them, Tang Zheng is not as stupid as you are."

"Hmph, don’t think we don’t know that you and Tang Zheng have rolled in the sheets, you probably think you have the upper hand and are ready to ditch us to go solo, right?" Bai Guo stared at Li Xinlan, her words heartfelt.

"Nonsense, even if you could use the Werewolves’ killings as an excuse, could you really kill Mu Nianqi? All of us together wouldn’t be a match for a Hero Tier Four!" Li Xinlan, now a married woman, erupted with fury. She looked toward Qin Yan’s retreating figure, "Would you say something? Is it really that interesting to be a silent bystander all the time?"

Qin Yan glanced at the Driver, ignoring Li Xinlan.

"What’s going on between Mu Nianqi and Tang Zheng? It’s been so long, haven’t they wiped out the other Team yet? There’s not even a Fourth Order in there, they’re extremely weak." Li Xinlan complained, "Tang Zheng has already noticed the issue, and if this standoff continues, it might blow our cover."

"Tang Zheng went to kill the BOSS, and Mu Nianqi is leading the chase on the other Team," the Driver spoke up, casting a large Shadow over his face, making him appear particularly sinister, "Don’t forget, that Team has my original; you think it’s easy to kill?"

"Narcissist." Bai Guo pouted her lips.

"Li Xinlan, don’t say I didn’t warn you, avoid contacting us alone in the future. You should talk more with those originals. Tang Zheng is very smart, he might deduce who’s a Clone from you." The Driver’s voice was cold, with a murderous edge.

"You’re suggesting I’ve been exposed?" Li Xinlan snorted disdainfully, "My acting is perfect. Just watch, I’ll use him and be the one who survives."

"Don’t be conquered by him in bed, that would be good enough." The Driver said and then fell silent, focusing on driving to rendezvous with Tang Zheng.

"Forget it, in any case, we also need to kill the BOSS and complete the mission. Might as well keep using Tang Zheng and the others," Bai Guo sighed, "Hopefully, the Group Leader moves quickly."

Fifteen minutes later, Tang Zheng, with Little Red Riding Hood in tow, regrouped with the Team. Two more Newbies died at the hands of the Werewolves, but no one cared.

"Brother Lin, Meiqin, your mission is to protect her." Tang Zheng handed Little Red Riding Hood over to the Old Soldier and climbed into the car, "Let’s go, to the Orphanage."

"I hope the Werewolves haven’t found her grandmother yet." Song Xin looked nervously at the scenery outside the Car window.

"Don’t worry; we will come back," Tang Zheng reassured his classmate, "Jing Lan, you don’t seem scared, huh?"

"What’s the use of being afraid?" Jing Lan flung back the short hair that hung over her forehead, "She seems to be in a lot of discomfort, why don’t we tear off the duct tape?"

"I don’t care!" Tang Zheng replied nonchalantly, resting against the back of the chair.

"Are you really here to protect me? Not for Grandma’s property?" Little Red Riding Hood stared at Lu Fan, very curious, "Who exactly are you?"

"No comment, just remember that we are the good guys," Lu Fan said with a grin, looking at Little Red Riding Hood, "You’re quite clever, just like me."

"It’s you who’s like me." Being just a child, Little Red Riding Hood didn’t want to be outdone.

The two Little Lolitas were about the same age, and with Lu Fan playing along skillfully, it didn’t take long before they hit it off as if they were old friends – they almost became sworn sisters.

Grandma had a large fortune and built the orphanage to be quite expansive, housing many homeless children. Little Red Riding Hood was very kind-hearted and loved to play with them, so there were no loneliness and tears here, just noise and laughter all day long.

However, today, there was an eerie silence. The iron gate at the entrance of the orphanage had been smashed open, and the middle-aged man who was the gatekeeper leaned against the wall, his head tilted, a pool of blood gathered underneath him, he had long stopped breathing.

"Uncle!" Little Red Riding Hood, stunned, pressed her face against the glass window upon seeing this scene, tears suddenly streaking down her cheeks. She attempted to rush out of the car to check on her uncle’s corpse, but Teng Yuangxiang stopped her.

"Be careful, it’s dangerous outside." Lu Fan comforted Little Red Riding Hood as Lin Weiguo and his group got out of the car to check the surroundings.

"Stop spacing out, let’s enter the orphanage. It looks like Grandma’s survival chances are slim," Dantai sighed, "We’re too late."

"Uncle." Little Red Riding Hood threw herself next to the corpse, weeping bitterly.

"He wasn’t a hunter, was he?" Jing Lan noticed the man was not only in hunting attire, but he also held a hunting rifle in his arms and asked suddenly.

"Uncle loved to go hunting, and he always told us about his experiences hunting big grey wolves when he was younger," Little Red Riding Hood sobbed, her eyes red from crying.

"The hunter died just like that?" Zhao Dongtao felt annoyed, "That’s so weak."

"Don’t cry, let’s go find your grandma first," Lu Fan, holding onto Little Red Riding Hood, had a responsibility to keep watch.

There was no need to search the orphanage. Song Xin nudged Tang Zheng’s back and pointed towards a row of houses, "There are people!"

Underneath the glass window, a row of eyes appeared. As soon as they saw strangers looking their way, they quickly hid, but then they peeped out again and screamed.

"It’s Little Red Riding Hood!" Followed by the shrieks, the children rushed out, "Red Red, some adults kidnapped grandma."

Ignoring the chirping children, Tang Zheng furrowed his brow, "Why didn’t they just kill grandma? Why go through the trouble of taking her away?"

"They’re using her as a hostage to make us hand over Little Red Riding Hood. Didn’t you see how much she loves her grandma?" Zhao Dongtao found it obvious, "The most pressing issue is how to rescue her."

"Please, save my grandma. She’s sick and must take her medication on time, or she’ll die," Little Red Riding Hood, distraught, clutched at Tang Zheng’s calf, pleading with him.

"Don’t worry, we will save her," Dantai said, stroking the Little Lolita’s hair to comfort her.

"Here, it’s this medicine. She takes one pill each time." Little Red Riding Hood took out a medicine bottle from her pocket and handed it to Tang Zheng, "I know I’m a burden, and you definitely won’t take me with you, so keep the medicine and don’t lose it."

"Why do you carry the medicine with you?" Pang Meiqin reached out for it, but the Little Lolita dodged. Annoyed, the Beautiful Leg Stewardess snatched it away, unscrewed the lid, and poured out two pills to examine.

"Of course, it’s because she just finished a bottle; this is a new one," Little Red Riding Hood gave Pang Meiqin a dismissive glance, as if it was nothing out of the ordinary.

"No time to waste, let’s go rescue her now. Little Red Riding Hood, you’re coming with us." Tang Zheng wanted to keep an eye on the Little Lolita to feel at ease. He called everyone to the car, "We’ll discuss tactics on the way."

"Isn’t this too hasty? We can be sure werewolves kidnapped Grandma, but we’re going into this blind," Zhao Dongtao wasn’t being cowardly, "Shouldn’t we ask the vampires for some intel?"

"Definitely," Pang Meiqin didn’t waste any time, driving at wind-rushing and lightning-speed towards the high-ranking vampire’s villa.

Seeing these violent guys appear again, the awakened vampire man became furious, but as soon as he heard they were looking for trouble with werewolves, he cracked a smile and immediately made a phone call to inquire with his subordinates.

"Got it. They indeed kidnapped an old woman, and she’s being kept in a villa in the suburbs. That’s a werewolf stronghold, their defense power isn’t very strong."

Worried they would be too scared to go, the man lied about the number of people, but Dantai didn’t care, "Tell me about the soldiers, security facilities in detail."

"No problem!" The man cooperated, but as he spoke, he realized he had let slip.

"This is your lesson." Bang, Teng Yuangxiang punched him in the face and then went to catch up with Tang Zheng and the others who were already setting out with the building plans. (To be continued.
