“Don’t worry. I would rather die with you, than go with him.”
*
Outside the magnificent Shengde Church, apostles walked in groups of two or three. It was Sunday, and there was a mass in the church. In the lounge behind the church, Lucas was wearing the priest’s robe in front of the mirror. Someone knocked at the door.
“Come in.”
Sister Xiaofeng gently pushed the door open. The look on her face was respectful, similar to the look a girl would have for her father.
Lucas glanced at her in the mirror, “Is Dr. Chen awake?”
“Not yet."
“When he wakes up, you should go and say hello.”
Lucas smiled, “He is a good young man. He is very skilled and loyal. If only he can listen to the Lord’s call and go back on the right track.”
“Yes.” Although Sister Xiaofeng was not convinced, she nodded. Her face was morose and apologetic, “Sir, Ying Hou No, and his men haven’t come back."
Lucas paused, “Jiang Yue Lou is a hard bone. I underestimated him and caused this result. I feel very sorry. Ying Hou No…”
“Ying Hou No wasn’t strong enough!” Sister Xiaofeng suddenly interrupted, before immediately lowering her head, “I’ll go! I will catch Jiang Yue Lou, and I will not let you down, sir!”
Lucas turned around and looked at Sister Xiaofeng kindly, “Jiang Yue Lou is an experienced policeman. If he wants to hide, it will be very difficult to find him. It is better to find a way with his companion.”
“Companion…” Sister Xiaofeng’s eyes suddenly lit up, “Sir, I understand.”
Lucas nodded in satisfaction, “The Lord will bless you, my child."
In a small building, less than a hundred steps away from Shengde Church, three people who were hunted by Lucas and Xiaofeng were hiding.
“That Lucas is now dispatching people to search for us everywhere, but this old man never realized we are right under his nose,” Sun Yongren said as he sorted out the ammunition.
By the window, Song Rong was on high alert. Jiang Yue Lou sat back on the couch and cleaned the barrel of the gun with caution.
“It’s been almost eight hours, and we still don’t know what happened to Dr. Chen.”
Sun Yongren said, “He is a weak scholar, and this time he has suffered a lot.”
Song Rong shot him a wary look before turning to Jiang Yue Lou, saying, “Doctor Chen is a card in their hands; Lucas will not easily kill him.”
“I’m overwhelmed.” Jiang Yue Lou said with a blank face, “I don’t know what to do.”
Sun Yongren and Song Rong looked at each other.
“Boss, don’t blame yourself, Dr. Chen is brave and courageous. He won’t blame you.”
“I know he won’t hold it against me.” Jiang Yue Lou had a sudden epiphany “He had already thought about this thoroughly. That is why he requested that I look into his sister’s case once more.”
Jiang Yue Lou slammed the wall furiously, “I just wanted him to test Lucas, but I never imagined him to be willing to die for this.”
Sun Yongren hurriedly signaled him to stop making noises, “Boss, don’t worry, we will find a way to rescue Dr. Chen.”
