Chapter 529 - 508: The Unspeakable Secret
When under someone else’s roof, you need to know how to lower your head. Gao Yi had mentally prepared himself for this.
Being beaten was acceptable—but don’t beat someone to death, and preferably don’t hurt them too badly, either.
Yet, under Yuri’s shouting, the soldiers, who appeared almost mad with anger, didn’t immediately start beating anyone.
Perhaps Lucy’s stunning appearance was too compelling. Even though these men quickly realized Lucy’s identity wasn’t so simple, they still refrained from harming her after finding the two pistols lying near her.
As a result, the furious yet tense soldiers’ spirits relaxed somewhat, sparing Gao Yi and his companions a more physical ordeal.
It was genuinely a stroke of luck.
Of course, being handcuffed was unavoidable. However, the fact that the Russians didn’t immediately send the injured Xinfeng and Sith to the hospital unsettled Gao Yi a bit.
One injury due to Yuri was already frustrating enough. It had turned everything into a losing proposition. If someone were to actually die, now that would be real trouble.
"Send them to the hospital. Call an ambulance. Hey, I’m... I’m..."
Gao Yi wanted to elevate his status. At first, he thought about shouting that he was from Northeastern University but felt that might not be appropriate. Then, he considered proclaiming himself as CIA but figured that could invite a worse beating. In the end, he turned to Yuri, who was also being dragged along, and said, "Tell them to save these people!"
