Chapter 177: Sandro’s odd findings [3]
Inside a smoke-filled room, the only light illuminating the entire space was the sunlight passing through the small box where an exhaust fan used to be installed, dimming the whole place despite the bright morning sky outside.
Two chairs were situated in the middle, both occupied with two unconscious bodies, limping on the sides.
Sandro’s eyebrow twitched when he smelled the scent of cigarettes. His eyes slowly opened and soon adjusted to the dim surroundings. He glanced around, his gaze darting on the person next to him, tied to the chair like him.
His feet, which thankfully weren’t tied, kicked the other chair, his movement creating a small ’thud’ noise that garnered the attention of the man hiding in the shadow at the corner of the room, the one responsible for the unceasing smoke in the air.
Sandro coughed from the strong aroma seeping down his throat. Even after getting discovered, he continued kicking the chair where Azrael’s secretary, Luis, was tied.
Damn it, why isn’t he waking up?! Sandro panicked. Surely, they wouldn’t bother to tie him if he was already a corpse, right? His only consolation made him kick the chair harder so that it moved slightly away from its position.
He jolted when a gruff voice came from the shadow, cutting through the smoky haze, "Quiet down. Stop kicking the goddamn chair. The sounds annoy me big time."
Sandro squinted toward the shadow, struggling to make out the figure concealed within. He didn’t recognize the voice, so he just asked in the end, "Who are you? Why did you kidnap us? If it’s for money, don’t bother. I’m just a nine-to-five employee who earns enough money to pay bills. I have nothing to pay you."
A deep sigh came from the dark corner, "You’re noisy."
