756 His Escape

CHAPTER 756 – His Escape
He halted in his step but did not turn. This was never part of his plan to get caught.
“Hands in the air and turn around slowly,” the other man ordered again.
He hesitated, his breathing coming in slowly as though he was not affected by what had just happened.
“I said hands in the air and turn,” the man half screamed his order but before he could say any more, the young man half turned.
“Your plan has been ruined huh,” he scoffed lightly. “You are a suspect fleeing the residence when the miss is in danger,” he added again and took a step closer.
“I said, hands in the air. Drop the bag and turn.”
“Okay,” the young man agreed, lifting his left hand first.
.....
While the security man thought he had caught the perpetrator and thwarted his plans, the young man was filled with confidence.
It was never part of his plan to get caught, yes, but who said he had only one plan?
His lips curved upwards as he let the bag drop to the floor in a gentle plop.
“Yes. Now, turn around, nice and slow,” he ordered again.
Obeying, he continued from where he had stopped and turned as expected of him. Once he was fully facing forward, his eyes met with the less bodily-built security man and lifted his brows.

He had expected it would be better for his opponent to be bulky in size and give him a difficult time. “Welp the more accessible,” he added.
“You said?”
“Nothing. Look, you have the wrong person. I am going on an errand.”
“Shut it. I will ask the questions and answer you will answer. Understood?” He nodded his head and sighed.
“Understood.”
“Good. Now, what is in that bag?”
“Dirt.”
“What are you doing with it?”
“Taking out the trash, of course, look,” he took three quick steps forward, stepping away from the bag and his equipment.
“Sop. I never said move.”
“You are getting this wrong. I am taking care of the trash. Look,” he pointed at the truck behind. “There’s been too much. We do not know what happened with the company. I was asked to go take care of it.”
Rather than replying, he gave him a suspicious look.
“It was due in the last three days, so the head butler ordered that I handle it. Which was what I was doing, taking out the last trash.”
“In that case, I should place a call to the head butler first to find out if he gave such an order then I would apologize for this and you can be on your way.”
“Works fine with me.”
He was sure that’s hold in case the man made the call, it would not go through. First, he tampered with the connection in the house. Preventing a case of any emergency call.
Besides, the old man was busy with the Bai princess to be close to the telephone.
To his disappointment, he tried connecting with the main house phone but no connection went through.
“Strange.”
He tried once more and got the same thing. “Fine ten, I would have to handle this on my own.”
“Excuse me?”
“I would have to check that bag you are carrying. And keep you detained here till every problem has been settled.”
The security guard did not wait for his response before moving closely with the gun in his hand.
Just as he walked past the young man and was about to close in on the bag, a voice rang out from the walkie-talkie securely placed at his waist.
“All units be on patrol and keep an eye out for any suspicious-looking individual. No one is to leave or enter the premises.”
‘There’s my cue to leave.’ The young man concluded in his mind.
“Roger.”
With a slight smile on his lips, the security guard’s face became strong as he once more glanced at the young man.
‘Suspicious looking individual with an excuse, he fits the description squarely.’ The security guard noted.
“I am so…” He did not get a chance to complete his sentence nor did he get any to stand up nor touch the back.
The next second, he felt a hand clamp around his neck, pull him up as a knee was sent straight into his stomach.
“Urrgh!”
Not sparing a second, the young man kneed him a second and third time and landed his elbow hard at the top of his back.

“Arrgh,” the man groaned in pain but his attacker was not yet done. Lifting his leg, he dove his heel straight into his chest, twisting his legs further on the chest.
“Never turn your back on your attacker,” he advised and spat on the ground beside him.
Having wasted so much time, he picked the bag from the ground and closed the gap between him and the trunk.
He got in, started the car, further alerting others and drove off towards the gate.
At the same time, another security guard walked over to the scene and met his colleague on the floor groaning in pain.
He snapped his head to the side, seeing the culprit escape and called out for help through the walkie-talkie.
“Culprit escaping. Block all exits, ASAP!”
“Roger!”
However, driving towards the main gate wasn’t his problem nor getting past. Slowing down, he grabbed a device from the bag and tapped on it.
Immediately the gate which had been closed before began to respond and slide out fo the way for him.
“What is going on?! Close the damn gate!”
“I’m trying but it is not…”
“Damn it, shoot him down!”
The moment the order was given, two other security guards ran up from behind the trunk and opened fire.
Similarly, one of the men from the security post rushed out and tried shooting at the car.
But it was too late. He drove at top speed through the gate and out of the residence.
“Don’t let him escape!” The head security guard ordered.
