Lin Yuxin tightly held the kitten, her body trembling slightly. Xiao Chen stood in front of everyone, his gaze fixed warily on the mysterious man.
"Who are you? Why have you been chasing us?" Xiao Chen demanded sharply.
The mysterious man smirked slightly, revealing a strange smile. "Hmph, you don't need to know who I am. Just hand over the documents, and I can spare your lives."
Lin Yi stepped forward defiantly. "No way! Those documents cannot fall into your hands."
The mysterious man's expression turned cold. "If you refuse my offer, don't blame me for being rude." As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand, and several burly men suddenly appeared behind him.
Lin Yuhan said in a panic, "What should we do? We’re no match for them."
Lin Yuxin bit her lip, her mind racing. Suddenly, she thought of a plan. "Xiao Chen, we can use the terrain here to our advantage," she whispered.
Xiao Chen nodded slightly. "Alright, everyone follow my lead."
They quickly scattered, hiding in various corners of the abandoned factory. The mysterious man and his henchmen began searching for their whereabouts.
"Search carefully; they can't have gone far," the mysterious man shouted angrily.
The henchmen moved cautiously, fearing an ambush. Lin Yuxin and the others waited anxiously for their opportunity.
Finally, one of the henchmen walked into the trap set by Lin Yuxin. With a loud crash, an old machine fell down and pinned him beneath it.
"Ah!" The henchman cried out in pain.
The mysterious man's expression changed. "Be careful! They have set a trap."
But it was too late; Xiao Chen seized the moment and charged out from the shadows, taking down another henchman. Lin Yi and Lin Yuhan also sprang into action, engaging in a fierce battle with the mysterious man's subordinates.
Seeing this, the mysterious man was furious. He charged directly at Lin Yuxin. In a panic, she dodged away.
"Hand over the documents!" the mysterious man roared.
As Lin Yuxin ran, she shouted back, "I won't give you the documents!"
Just as the mysterious man was about to catch her, the kitten suddenly leaped out and bit him fiercely. The mysterious man winced in pain and halted his pursuit.
Lin Yuxin took advantage of this moment to hide behind a pillar. She felt a surge of gratitude; she hadn't expected the kitten to save her at such a critical moment.
At that point, Xiao Chen and the others gradually gained the upper hand. Realizing the situation was turning against him, the mysterious man had no choice but to retreat with his henchmen.
Lin Yuxin and her friends breathed a sigh of relief, but they knew that the mysterious man would not give up easily. They had to find a safe place quickly to send out the documents.
"What should we do now?" Lin Yuhan asked.
Xiao Chen pondered for a moment and said, "We can't stay here any longer; we must leave immediately. I remember there's a small town nearby where we can seek help."
Everyone agreed, and they headed towards the direction of the town. Along the way, they remained highly alert, fearing that the mysterious man might catch up with them again.
When they arrived at the town, they found it bustling with activity. They sought out a quiet spot to sit down and discuss their next plan.
"We could find the local police and hand over the documents to them," Lin Yi suggested.
Lin Yuxin shook her head. "No, we can't be sure if the police here are reliable. What if there are spies for the mysterious man among them? That would put us in danger."
Xiao Chen nodded. "Yuxin is right. We should first find a place to hide the documents and then figure out a way to contact someone trustworthy to help us."
They searched around the town for a suitable hiding place. Eventually, they discovered an abandoned church. It was dark and damp inside, but it was also very discreet.
They hid the documents in a corner of the church and then left. They decided to find somewhere to stay in the town before slowly figuring out how to resolve their situation.
Unbeknownst to them, the mysterious man had already learned of their whereabouts and was heading towards the town. A more intense chase was about to begin.
They cautiously walked along the street, keeping an eye on their surroundings. Lin Yuxin held her little cat tightly, feeling both anxious and hopeful.
"Yuxin, are you sure your friend will help us?" Lin Yi asked uncertainly.
Lin Yuxin furrowed her brow slightly. "I can't be completely sure, but he is one of the most upright people I know. I believe he will stand on the side of justice."
Xiao Chen nodded. "For now, we have no choice but to take a gamble. Hopefully, we can find him smoothly."
After walking for a while, they reached an intersection. Lin Yuhan looked around, feeling a bit lost as she said, "Which way should we go?"
Xiao Chen thought for a moment. "Yuxin, do you know where your friend works specifically?"
Lin Yuxin recalled, "I think he works in a government building nearby, but I'm not exactly sure where."
They decided to randomly choose a direction and see if they could find any clues. However, it wasn't long before they noticed several suspicious figures loitering ahead.
"This isn't good; they might be underlings of the mysterious man," Xiao Chen whispered.
They quickly turned around and tried to find another route. But soon they realized that there were also figures approaching from behind.
"We're surrounded," Lin Yi said with a serious expression.
Lin Yuxin's heart tightened as she clutched her little cat tightly. "What do we do now?"
Xiao Chen calmly observed their surroundings. "We can't just sit here; we need to find somewhere to hide and assess the situation."
They searched for a place to conceal themselves and eventually found an abandoned shop. They hurried inside and closed the door behind them.
The people outside seemed to have noticed their movements and began walking towards the store. Lin Yuxin and the others held their breath, anxiously waiting.
"Do you think they'll find us?" Lin Yuhan whispered.
Xiao Chen made a shushing gesture. "Don't say anything. Let's hope they don't discover us."
The footsteps grew closer, and Lin Yuxin's heart raced in her chest. Just then, the little cat suddenly let out a faint meow.
"Oh no!" Lin Yuxin thought to herself in alarm.
The people outside heard the sound and immediately stopped. "It sounds like there's something inside," one of them said.
They began banging on the door, trying to force their way in. Lin Yuxin and the others huddled together, unsure of what to do.
"We can't let them in," Xiao Chen said. "Find something to block the door."
They searched around for anything they could use to barricade the door and finally found some old furniture and boxes. Working together, they piled these items against the door in an attempt to keep the intruders out.
Seeing that the door was blocked, the people outside started to ram it with force. The door shook violently, as if it could be broken open at any moment.
"This isn't going to work," Lin Yi said. "We need to come up with a way to break out."
Xiao Chen looked out the window and suddenly had an idea. "We can escape through the window and then circle around behind them to make our getaway."
Everyone agreed that this plan was feasible, so they cautiously opened the window and climbed out one by one. They quietly maneuvered around to the back of those people and quickly fled while they were distracted.
After a tense escape, they finally shook off their pursuers. However, they found themselves lost, unsure of where to go to find Lin Yuxin's friend.
"What do we do now?" Lin Yuhan asked.
Xiao Chen thought for a moment before replying, "We can ask passersby if anyone knows where the government building is."
They began inquiring with pedestrians about the location of the government building. After several questions, they finally found the right direction. With renewed hope, they headed towards the government building, eager to find help and escape this crisis.
