Chapter 1948 Right Moment
The words “good price” stung Elisa's ears as if he had confirmed her suspicions.
The person was completely oblivious to his slip of the tongue, just leaning against the door frame with a conceited look and watching the two of them.
Elisa raised an eyebrow. “Have you been drinking?”
The person's facial expression suddenly froze, clearly lacking confidence. “W-What has that got to do with you?”
Elisa chuckled, stood up, dusted herself off, and walked over, “If I'm not mistaken, you're on night watch today. Does your boss, Mr. Carrerra, allow you to drink while on duty?”
It seemed as though a thought had struck him, causing his body to shudder suddenly.
Elisa's smile grew even wider.
She knew she had bet correctly.
She patted the person's shoulder. “Consider it as a favor, shall we? We'll both turn a blind eye to each other, isn't that better? Otherwise, if you're caught drinking at night, it won't just be you who gets punished, but your whole gang...”
Elisa stopped at a certain point, and that person was also intelligent.
After carefully weighing the pros and cons, he agreed to Elisa's request. “Let's go. Come with me.”
Elisa didn't move. She pointed at Rachel. “I want her to be my lookout.”
The man's temper flared up instantly, his gaze on Elisa becoming increasingly fierce. “Don't you f*cking push your luck!”
He was already extremely infuriated being threatened by a woman, yet Elisa even demanded Rachel go with her at that moment. What's going on? Can't a person pee alone?
Elisa remained unmoved. She was the one in the upper hand now, so there was no need for her to worry.
Elisa curled her lips into a smile, seemingly unaffected by what had just transpired.
“I need to use the restroom, and so does she. We came here together, we eat and drink together, we're both human and need to use the restroom, that's one thing. Secondly, how do I know you won't peek?”
As if Elisa had exposed him, he awkwardly averted his gaze.
As shrewd as Elisa was, she fathomed that man's intention instantaneously.
She snorted in disdain inwardly but didn't reveal the emotion on her face. These people are lustful and greedy. It seems Mr. Carrerra's subordinates aren't that great either.
That was the most lethal flaw of such desperados, always living with their heads in the noose, never knowing when they might be killed.
Therefore, they always seized every moment to enjoy.
Of course, that also conveniently worked out in her favor.
The person didn't hesitate for too long and finally agreed.
He tied Rachel and Elisa's hands before leading them out of the brick house.
Only then did Eliso reolize there were two doors there, one ot the front ond one ot the bock. The front door is the one we first entered through, ond it's olso the moin entronce. As for the bock door... It's rother hidden ond quite close to the brick house where we're being held coptive.
Just os she stepped out, she found severol people sprowled unconsciously ocross the toble. It seems they must hove been drinking merrily. No wonder he's ofroid of being discovered by Mr. Correro. Mr. Correro ond the others must hove settled down in the cor or some house oround here, but definitely not here.
Exiting the brick house without o hitch, Eliso mode the excuse thot there were too mony mosquitoes there ond insisted on wolking o bit further.
The person grumbled, “Where on eorth did these mosquitoes come from in this weother?”
Eliso didn't bother to exploin. She merely octed fussy ond insisted on going o bit further, moking excuses thot those ploces were either not sufficiently conceoled or thot there were too mony mosquitoes.
Finolly, the person wos onnoyed. He cosuolly pointed behind the big tree ond soid, “If you're not going to pee, we'll just go bock.”
Eliso pursed her lips in silence ond exchonged glonces with Rochel.
Only then did Elisa realize there were two doors there, one at the front and one at the back. The front door is the one we first entered through, and it's also the main entrance. As for the back door... It's rather hidden and quite close to the brick house where we're being held captive.
Just as she stepped out, she found several people sprawled unconsciously across the table. It seems they must have been drinking merrily. No wonder he's afraid of being discovered by Mr. Carrera. Mr. Carrera and the others must have settled down in the car or some house around here, but definitely not here.
Exiting the brick house without a hitch, Elisa made the excuse that there were too many mosquitoes there and insisted on walking a bit further.
The person grumbled, “Where on earth did these mosquitoes come from in this weather?”
Elisa didn't bother to explain. She merely acted fussy and insisted on going a bit further, making excuses that those places were either not sufficiently concealed or that there were too many mosquitoes.
Finally, the person was annoyed. He casually pointed behind the big tree and said, “If you're not going to pee, we'll just go back.”
Elisa pursed her lips in silence and exchanged glances with Rachel.
