Only when he had backed all the way to the warehouse entrance.
Did the boy turn around.
And take off running!
Though the boy was small, he ran astonishingly fast with the tote bag in hand.
In the blink of an eye, he vanished behind a haystack.
The boy ran for quite a while.
Only then did he brace his hands on his knees and gasp for breath.
He looked back and saw that Li Chen and the others were already gone.
Only then did the boy let out a sigh of relief!
After resting for a moment.
The boy picked up the tote bag again and skillfully weaved through the haystacks.
He ran straight into an abandoned residential house.
It was a self-built house of roughly 150 square meters.
It had three floors in total.
The boy made his way upstairs with practiced ease.
He stopped before an iron door.
The boy cautiously looked around first.
Only then did he raise his grimy little hand and knock on the door several times.
Three heavy knocks, then one light knock.
Creak—
The iron door opened from within.
An adult man in a Combat Uniform first glanced around.
Only then did he let the boy inside.
"What is this?" The adult man's gaze fell on the tote bag.
The boy set down the tote bag and plopped onto an iron chair.
"Some food."
The boy's voice was cold.
If Li Chen had been here, he would have noticed that the boy's expression was nothing like that of a child!
He looked like a battle-hardened veteran.
"Making trouble again!"
"How is it? That batch of chromium hasn't been discovered yet, right?"
Without even glancing at the tote bag, the adult man impatiently asked.
The boy's face darkened.
He slowly shook his head.
