Lin Zhiyi wondered what was happening.
A gun fell from above her head.
Chu Yin caught it just in time, almost screaming in fright. She threw it to Lin Zhiyi like it was a hot potato.
"Oh my gosh! You kid, you’re really good at taking things. Aren’t you afraid of being discovered?"
"They were drunk, their attention was all in that small room of the office. One by one they unbuckled their belts and went in with their guns, and after coming out, they fell asleep without anyone noticing me," explained Xiaoxi.
"Were they all going for a big job?" Chu Yin speculated.
No wonder the internet says some men love to take a dump.
Lin Zhiyi brought the topic back, looking up and asking, "Xiaoxi, Xiaoyi’s wound is a bit red and swollen, I’m afraid it’ll get worse. Did you find the medicine?"
"Yeah, quite a lot." Xiaoxi nodded with a smile.
Lin Zhiyi and Chu Yin didn’t expect his idea of "a lot" to be much.
When they reached out to take it, they were dumbfounded.
A large bag of medicine wrapped entirely in a coat.
The two looked at the medicine they held, and gave Xiaoxi a thumbs up in unison.
Chu Yin said, "Wow, did you empty the medicine cabinet?"
"I’m not stupid; I didn’t take it from such an obvious place. I grabbed them from the medical room’s storage; they definitely won’t notice for at least ten days to half a month. Right now, there are no guests on the ship, and they’re particularly lax," Xiaoxi said with a proud smile.
Chu Yin patted Lin Zhiyi’s shoulder.
"Did you hear that? Lax. The Bai Family has done so much evil, and in the end, they lose to a child, not unjustly."
Lin Zhiyi smiled and looked up, asking, "Xiaoxi, did you manage to get the key?"
"I got it. But I found in that office that the surveillance turns directions every ten minutes, so I climbed up here to hand things over to you. It’s easier to avoid being discovered on the top," Xiaoxi said calmly and wisely.
Sometimes it made people forget he’s still a child.
Lin Zhiyi signaled Xiaoxi to keep his head down.
Then, she squatted down with Chu Yin to rummage through the needed medicine.
Unexpectedly, they found something else.
Sedatives.
Chu Yin counted the syringes; there were a total of thirteen.
"So many? And it’s only part of the medical room. How many people are they planning to take down?"
Lin Zhiyi picked up a syringe and checked the dosage.
Fortunately, she learned a bit from Li Huan before.
One syringe is enough to take down an adult male.
It seems the Bai Family has other plans for this engagement party.
No wonder Gong Chen said it was like looking at flowers through fog.
Fortunately, what Xiaoxi brought back was enough for their self-rescue.
Lin Zhiyi looked up at Xiaoxi: "Xiaoxi, are there many people in that room?"
"Yes, there are ten in the office, and as for the small room, I don’t know how many, but I overheard they’ll all go upstairs tomorrow, leaving only a few on duty here."
Xiaoxi covered his mouth, his voice very small.
He glanced around: "Auntie, the surveillance turned, let me go down and open the door for you."
"Okay."
Xiaoxi carefully slipped away.
Lin Zhiyi pulled Chu Yin, quickly gathering up the medicine on the ground.
"I’ll take a box of the medicine they need to another container. You hide these under the bed first."
Chu Yin was momentarily stunned: "Aren’t you going to distribute them to everyone?"
Lin Zhiyi said, "Although I trust them, it’s important to remain cautious of others. I need to confirm things before distributing."
"Then...what about this gun?"
Chu Yin didn’t even dare to touch the gun beside her.
Lin Zhiyi picked it up and tucked it into her back waistband: "It has a safety lock; it won’t fire."
Chu Yin was startled by her expertise.
The next second, the door opened a crack, and Xiaoxi popped his head in, waving his hand.
"Auntie, hurry, or the surveillance will turn back soon."
"Alright." Lin Zhiyi glanced at Chu Yin, "Xiaoyi is in your care."
"Yeah, I’ll give her the medicine right away and clean the wound again."
Chu Yin took the medicine and walked to Xiaoyi’s bed.
Lin Zhiyi crouched low, following Xiaoxi out.
They unlocked the adjacent container while avoiding surveillance.
The people inside were startled, initially thinking it was those thugs again, they shrank into the corners.
A sick adult, a group of powerless children.
It’s even more intimidating than abusing them.
Facing the girl’s gradual deterioration, the children’s fear would exponentially grow, making them more obedient.
The children opened their mouths to scream as soon as they saw someone coming in.
Luckily, Xiaoxi, also a child, raised a finger to his lips.
"Shhh. We’re here to save you."
The children immediately clamped their lips shut and shrank down.
Grateful for Xiaoxi’s help, Lin Zhiyi turned to check the children.
"Are any of you hurt?"
The children were filthy, their eyes filled with fear.
Suddenly hearing words of concern, two of them couldn’t help but rush into Lin Zhiyi’s arms.
Soon, more children came closer, wanting to embrace her.
Anger surged within Lin Zhiyi, she couldn’t imagine what these children had suffered before.
"Don’t be afraid..."
For a moment, she didn’t know how to comfort them.
All she could do was hug each child.
Meanwhile, the girl’s friend gradually regained consciousness after taking the medicine.
"Jingjing, are you okay?" the girl asked worriedly.
"Xiaorui, did you see Hong Yang? I can’t find him." The girl named Jingjing woke up crying for her boyfriend.
Xiaorui chided, "You’re still thinking about him? If he hadn’t asked you to travel, would you have been captured?"
"It’s not like that, he must’ve been captured too, what if something happened to him?"
"Can you stop being stupid? He’s not worth it!" Xiaorui argued.
"He is! He loves me!" Jingjing retorted.
Xiaorui pressed her lips, not speaking.
Lin Zhiyi sensed something was amiss, turning to the sick girl.
"Did you say your boyfriend invited you to travel?"
