Chapter 811
“Okay, got it. I shall bring my men over right now!”
After hanging up, L bore an icy expression. Beside him, his vice-captain observed his expression
carefully. “Captain Fraser, should we depart now?”
d in his firefighter uniform, L stared at the pouring rain outside the window and tidied his
sleeves calmly. “We’re firefighters. It’s raining heavily, so why would they need our help?”
The vice-captain was surprised. Didn’t Captain Fraser agree to send backup? Has he changed his
mind?
Without a word, he left the office and didn’t dare to inform the other firefighters.
L stared at the rain wordlessly. It’s time to end things.
Right then, he received a WhatsApp message on his phone.
It was from Dixon: L, I’ll leave you to gather the evidence. Can youplete it within a week?
Something dark appeared in L’s eyes as he replied: Yes. It will take at most ten days. I’ll arrange
for someone to head there.
Dixon’s reply arrived instantly mere secondster: Okay. I’ll await your good news.
The downpour was like an unending cataract of water sluicing from the sky. Lightning red and
contorted in forks of gold. The world became cer-dark and the buckling, heaving sky looked fit to
copse down anytime.
A young woman was driving along the road leading to the abandoned factory in the northern suburbs.
“I’m almost there. I’m going to arrive soon!”
Ashlyn held the steering wheel tightly as she stared ahead. The windshield wipers slid left and right to
clear the rain as rain pelted the car.
She kept mumbling to herself as the car got closer to the abandoned factory.
Anxiety overwhelmed her heart. ir didn’t tell me the entire incident clearly over the phone. I
should’ve left with Lucas instead of waiting for him in the hotel like a fool. I can’t believe he returned to
the country secretly without letting me know!
Ashlyn could barely think straight as she was too concerned.
Lucas’ mental state cannot take even the slightest emotional distress. What happened to him? Was it a
rpse? Or was his life in danger? Why did ir call instead of Spencer?
She was about to drive past the bridge that was going to be blown up to head to the abandoned
factory.
After driving past the bridge, I’ll arrive at the factory where Lucas is inside!

Ashlyn stared at the creepy factory some distance away. A sharp glint appeared in her gaze as she
floored the elerator.
I need to save him no matter what!
Meanwhile, the people beside the abandoned factory were prepared to detonate the explosives. “The
explosive devices will detonate five minutester!”
The leader held his walkie-talkie and announced, “Listen to my order! One, two, three! What the h*ll is
that? Is that an old car?”
The man stared at the car on the bridge incredulously.
Didn’t we barricade everything? The traffic police even blocked all paths heading here! Why is there a
car heading this way?
s, it was toote.
“Hurry, stop everything! Stop all the explosions!” the man yelled hastily as his expression turned as
dark as thunder. “Hurry, inform everyone to stop! We won’t be demolishing the factory and the bridge!”
“It’s toote! Our men at the factory had already detonated the explosives and left. There is no way
they can head back. If they do, they will die in the explosion!”
Everyone stared at the speeding car in shock.
The man roared angrily, “Did you do your job right? How did someone manage to enter the area? D*mn
it! We can’t afford to bear the consequences if someone were to die here!”
Furious, he grabbed his walkie-talkie and activated the loudspeaker function. “Will the car ahead
please take note? This abandoned factory is going to be demolished by explosives, so please turn your
vehicle around and leave right now!”
Ashlyn was about to arrive at the factory when she heard the announcement. It caught her by surprise.
Demolished by explosives? Is this factory going to be destroyed? She stared at the factory. If Lucas is
inside, that means he’ll die in the explosion! I must head inside!
