Chapter 220 Ebony Ordered Lloyd to Take off His Pants


The driver took a few steps back, and his face was sweaty. He bowed his back and nodded repeatedly.


Ebony said calmly, "Drag the people sitting in the back of the car out, and take them inside."


After saying that, she pushed open the rusty iron door.


At the same time, a few hundred feet away in the bungalow.


The evil and cold-faced man sat on a chair. He looked askance and played carelessly with the sharp knife in his hand. He was listening to the terrified plea from a Caucatian man next to him.


"Let go of me... Please let me go... I'll give you all the money I have. No matter how much money you want, I can give you all!"


The man curled his cold lips and smiled coldly. Then he lifted his eyes and glanced at the Caucatian man. He said indifferently, "Mr. Meyer, this matter could have been solved with money. Unfortunately..."


He said as he made a gesture.


Then his men pointed the silencer pistol at the back of Jared's head.


Jared was scared shitless and said, "What the hell do you want... How..."


"Bang!"


As the blood splattered, Max glanced at his black leather shoes.


A little bit of crimson blood was stained on the upper part of his shoes.


Seeing this, the man who shot Jared immediately squatted down and used his sleeve to help Captain wipe his shoes clean.


At that moment, the door of the room was pushed open. Then someone outside reported, "Captain, someone has entered the abandoned factory."


Max looked out the door and said, "Someone from the military?"


"Not sure."


Max said calmly, "It doesn't matter. Kill them all. Leave."


Ebony waited in the factory for almost half an hour, but she still hadn't seen Max.


Was her present life really different from her past life?


Could it be that she couldn't see Max at this time of the day?


Ebony got a little impatient. Then, she looked at the three kidnappers lying in the corner like corpses and the only conscious driver. She smacked her lips and asked, "Are you hungry?"


The driver looked at her with fear and trembled. He said timidly, "I-I have said everything. I also told you who hired us to kidnap you... W-what else do you want?"


Ebony touched her belly as she said, "I'm asking if you're hungry."


The driver shook his head in fear.


Ebony said, "I'm hungry. Do you have food in the car? You have to prepare food for at least a few days when you kidnap people. Go get the food."


The driver kept his head down and didn't dare to move at all.


"Clang!"


Ebony kicked over the gasoline barrel next to him and yelled, "Now go!"


The driver quickly stood up and ran outside in fear.


After a short while, the driver walked in with a bag of food in his arms.


However, he did not expect that as soon as he entered the factory, he heard a bullet hit the iron door of the factory.


"Ahhhhhhh!" The driver was scared to death. The bullet was only a few inches away from him. And he was so close to being hit!


Then the driver fled. He grabbed his snacks and scurried behind Ebony!


Ebony glanced at the driver.


At that moment, someone kicked open the door of the factory.


Ebony was sitting on top of an empty gasoline bucket. She swayed her feet carelessly and looked at the line of people coming through the door.


She finally waited for him to show up.


The men who came in were all armed with pistols. Most of them were familiar faces. The one at the end of the line was a very familiar face to her.


She saw several seniors and teachers.


Then, Ebony's dark eyes met Max's gray eyes.


Max, who was walking behind the crowd, raised his eyebrows. He looked at Ebony and said with some surprise, "It's you?"


Ebony jumped down from the gas tank and said, "Yes, it's me."


Max then looked around the factory and asked in a cold voice, "Where's Owl?"


Ebony thought, 'Who's Owl?'


Ebony blinked and remained silent.


Max narrowed his eyes at Ebony and said, "We're old friends. Let's get your Capitan Nightingale from the Owlwolf Team to come out and talk."


Ebony thought, 'The Owlwolf Team?'


Ebony wondered if Max was crazy. Was the Owlwolf Team a new terrorist group that had sprung up?


It seemed like she hadn't heard of it in her previous life.


As Ebony was wondering, she heard Max say, "Owl, come out."


Ebony waved her hand and said, "Hey, you..."


"Lloyd, come out!"


Ebony froze.


Ebony thought, 'Lloyd? Why did he mention Lloyd?


Then, Ebony immediately turned his head and looked around.


Ebony thought, 'Is Lloyd here? Where is he? Where? I don't see him!'


There was silence all around. After a long time, there was no movement in the room.


At that moment, Max looked at Ebony as he snickered. "Lloyd, do you like hiding behind women that much? Or are you just scared by the bullet I fired?"


Ebony felt speechless.


Ebony suddenly lifted her head. Then she stared at Max seriously and didn't care why Lloyd was the Owl anymore.


She just stared into Max's eyes. After a while, she slowly asked, "Did you say you shot Lloyd?"


Max looked over at Ebony, and then he took a step toward her.


Max did not lower his eyes until he was very close to her. There was an icy chill in his gray eyes. Then he said in a deep voice, "Ask him to come out."


Ebony took a deep breath. She lowered her eyes, licked her lips, and said to herself, "I'm so stupid. I was thinking that he had helped me before. I've always wanted to return his favor... It seems that I thought too much."


She said, mockingly raising her eyes and reaching out her right hand.


Her fist was as big as a casserole!


Without saying a word, Ebony hit Max right in the face with a straight punch.


Max then took a half step back and dodged her attack. Then, he moved his neck and lazily warned, "Miss Gibson, don't take my tolerance for granted."


"Have you ever indulged me?" Ebony laughed in exasperation, "Don't flatter yourself!"


Ebony said as she approached Max again. She made a biting move. Each of her strikes struck a fatal spot on Max's body!


In time, Ebony and Max were making moves and attacking each other in the spacious, abandoned factory!


They were walking among the broken iron oil buckets and large rusty equipment.


By this time, the Bloody Group's men had all put down their guns.


Ebony's titular seniors from her past life gathered and started chatting in Eglelish. "What is this woman's background? Why are her moves so similar to Captain's?"


"And her moves and techniques are the same too. Could she be... Captain's daughter who lives in Crocan?"


"His daughter? How could Captain have such an elder daughter? Why don't you think straight? She looks like his adopted daughter!"


"What were they talking about? I don't understand Crocanese."


"I can. They seemed to be saying that the Captain was indulging his daughter, but his daughter said no. Could the girl be throwing a tantrum?"


"Is she throwing a tantrum? Why do I feel that Captain can't beat his daughter..."


"Nonsense! How could the Captain not be able to beat a little girl?"


At that moment, Max and Ebony suddenly stopped fighting.


The others were watching them fight from afar. Then, they saw that Max's cheek was cut with a bloody scar.


Ebony, who was standing across from him, was not hurt.


Max was at a disadvantage!


The members of Bloody Group didn't believe it at all. Someone said, "The captain must have let her get the upper hand on purpose!"


Another person asked, "So are they done fighting now?"


"It seems..."


After a short intermission, both of them made their moves at the same time. Then, Ebony and Max began to fight against each other again!


"They haven't..."


"Bang!"


At that moment, there was a sudden loud bang behind them.


Then, everyone turned around to see that the iron door of the factory was blown away.


The members of the Bloody Group immediately gathered.


Half an hour later, someone shouted in Eglelish, "It's the military from Crocan! The armed forces!"


Max also heard the voice. Then he took a step back and stared at Ebony, who was aggressive and pressing forward, and said in a deep voice, "So you're stalling."


"Cut the crap!" Ebony also heard the sound of explosions outside, but she didn't care and rushed towards Max again.


However, Max suddenly pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Ebony.


Ebony was forced to stop. She slowly reached back with one hand and tried to reach the gun she had pinned to her waist.


At the same time, she looked at Max coldly.


At the door, members of the Bloody Group and the troops from outside were already fighting. And the gunshots kept ringing out.


Someone shouted in Eglelish, "Captain, there are too many people!"


Max gritted his teeth as he stepped back and said, "Retreat."


After saying that, the Bloody Group members started to move to the other side.


Max was still pointing his gun at Ebony. He had already decided that Ebony was the one from the military.


Ebony just looked at Max. After a long time, she said, "If you want to shoot me again, don't shoot me in the leg. If I get four bullet scars on my legs, I'll look really bad in dresses."


Max frowned, "Still?"


While he was in doubt, Ebony immediately pulled out his pistol and shot at Max's wrist.


Max also aimed the gun at Ebony's brow. At the same time, they fired the bullets...


Ebony reacted quickly. She stepped to the side. Although her cheek would be grazed by the trajectory, she could dodge his bullets.


However, something happened at that moment.


A figure suddenly slid down from above like a ghost.


Before Ebony could react, her body was suddenly pressed tightly into that man's arm.


Her eyes suddenly widened.


"Bang!"


The bullet Max had fired embedded itself in the back of the man holding her.


For a moment, Ebony's heart nearly stopped beating.


After Max fired a shot, he covered his stricken wrist and quickly retreated.


Ebony stood in place and remained silent.


She smelled the familiar scent of a man. There was the sound of gunfire in the distance.


Ebony felt her eyes blur.


Then, she slowly lifted her head. Her black eyes met the man's dark eyes.


"Lloy..."


Suddenly, he lowered his eyes and leaned forward.


Ebony immediately held him steady. Her eyes were filled with fear. "Lloy-, Lloy-, Lloy-..."


"Lloyd!"


Then Ebony hugged Lloyd tightly in a panic. And she ran her trembling hands over Lloyd's back.


Ebony thought, 'No! No! This can't be happening! Lloyd can't have an accident...'


Ebony panicked and began to find...


However, after a long time, she couldn't find anything...


Ebony was confused.


She didn't find any blood or see any bullets.


Then, Ebony stood on her tiptoes. She was holding Lloyd while trying to look at his back.


She saw that the bulletproof suit Lloyd was wearing was intact. There was no dust on any of the areas that had been hit by the bullets.


"Could it be that you... start to get scared now?" Lloyd's low voice rang in her ears.


Ebony stared at him dumbfounded.


Lloyd took a half step back. Then he reached down and removed the shield over his face.


At that moment, a haggard, tired, and pale handsome face showed up.


At that moment, Lloyd lifted a hand. He used his gloved fingers to wipe the dirt from Ebony's face. Then, in a low voice, he said, "Come with me."


An hour later, Ebony crouched on her knees by the side of the gravel road. She gouged the uppers of both her shoes with both her hands.


Lloyd watched the military vehicle leave after saying something to his superior. Then, he walked toward Ebony.


He stopped in front of Ebony. His upright figure enveloped Ebony, who curled up.


Ebony looked up timidly at Lloyd.


Then, Lloyd crouched down. He used one of his hands to hold Ebony's chin and let her look at him. His black eyes darkened. He asked, "Have you been kidnapped?"


Immediately, Ebony kept nodding.


Lloyd asked again, "What about Max?"


Ebony didn't dare to tell the truth. Then, she pouted and didn't say anything.


After Lloyd took a breath, he said, "He's gone. For now, you're in danger. And he will come back at any moment to get back at you."


Ebony could only admit that she had been kidnapped by Max.


Then, she asked with guilt, "So what do I do now?"


Lloyd got up and held out his hand to her.


Ebony then immediately grabbed Lloyd's hand and tried to stand up.


She found that Lloyd's arm was bleeding!


"You're bleeding!"


Ebony jumped to her feet.


Lloyd looked at his arm and then noticed his previous gunshot wound open. Then, he pursed his lips and said, "I'm fine."


"How can it be okay?" Ebony became agitated. "I'll take you to the hospital!"


After saying that, Ebony remembered that Lloyd couldn't go to the hospital.


After hesitating for a moment, she said, "I know how to heal the wound. Let's go to my house first! Go!"


Did he have to go to her house?


Lloyd gave a start. He pursed his lips for a moment. He was about to refuse her, but he swallowed his words. Then he got in the car.


Two hours later, in the tiny apartment room.


Ebony turned on the light and carefully helped Lloyd remove his bulletproof jacket.


Underneath the bulletproof jacket, he was wearing an armed military uniform.


Then Ebony saw the uniform with "Owlwolf" engraved on it.


She narrowed her eyes slightly but didn't say anything.


When she had stripped Lloyd down to a camouflage undershirt, Ebony lifted the covers and said to Lloyd, "You go to bed first."


Lloyd was silent for a moment. He looked at Ebony's bed and hesitated. Finally, he pretended to be weak and lay down on it.


Ebony said, "Give me your hand."


Lloyd reached out. He kept his eyes on Ebony.


Then Ebony took out the medical kit. She took Lloyd's old bandage off and reapplied the medicine.


She said, "Take off your pants, too."
