Chapter 1296 Running Into Amur


    Luca pulled the needle away and circled her arm around Solomon’s neck. There was a vicious


    expression on her face which sent a wave of terror across the two other men.


    "What... What are you... doing..." Solomon had some trouble speaking with his neck being choked like


    that.


    "Just testing the drug." Luka nced at the man''s face. The venom would take some time to work. It


    seemed that she had to stay for a while longer. "Why don''t we wait and see if the venom works before


    we talk?"


    Solomon shuddered for a moment. The force applied to his neck was so strong he could not break free.


    He knew what would happen if he did not administer the antidote in time, so he begged. "Please don’t.


    Let’s... Let’s talk about it."


    As he said those words, he signaled hisckeys with his eyes.


    Luca noticed the slight changes in her opponent''s movements, so she tightened her grip. "If you dare


    do anything funny, you might just endanger someone''s life."

    Solomon shuddered once more. She was just a frail Eastern woman, but the force on his neck was so


    strong that he could not move at all. Feeling the pressure, he had no choice but to surrender. "Alright,


    alright, I won''t do anything. What do you want? We can negotiate."


    Luca tilted her chin toward the man who had his back


    turned toward them and said, "Tell your men to let go of that person."


    Solomon frowned as a vicious look shed across his eyes. "You came here to save him?"


    "Just cut the crap. Do you want to die?" Luca showed the side of her that no one had ever seen before-


    violent and sinister. It was theplete opposite of the gentle and tender woman she was.


    Solomon hinted at his henchmen with his eyes. His life was way more important despite how unwilling


    he was. He said to them, "Let him go."


    "Boss!" The man who brought Luca inside was very unwilling to do so. "We wasted so much effort just


    to get this man under control. It’ll all be for nothing if we let him go."


    "Just cut the crap and let him go!" Solomon barked. If his life was not in Luca''s hands right now, he


    would have given him a tight p on the face.


    The henchman had no choice but to cut their hostage loose. He wanted to get an opportunity to save


    Solomon, but Luca was staring at him, so he had no chance at all.


    The moment the man was free from his bonds, he removed the cloth from his mouth and stared at


    Luca in bewilderment. "Why are you here?”


    "I should be asking you that, Amur." Luca was familiar with his silhouette, but she did not expect it to


    really be him.


    Since he was in America and not on the Ind of Despair, was he on duty?


    If he was on duty, he would have used his phone and seen the message she left him. Why did he not


    reply to her?


    Amur''s blue eyes showed confusion.


    He was here so that he could stay by her side and protect her in the future. To do that, he had to finish


    the mission Abel gave him.


    However, he did not expect that he would run into her. If they escaped from this ce, how was he


    going to exin himself?


    He did not want to lie to her.


    Luca then said to him, "Grab that bottle."


    "Mm." Amur walked forward and grabbed the bottle she pointed at. Those three men were no match for


    him. If it were not for their dirty tricks, he would not have ended up here.


    Luca watched as he put the bottle in his pocket and said to him, "Did youe here to take something


    too?"


    "Yes." Amur nodded. He nced at the two other men. Their boss was being held in a chokehold, so


    they dared not act brashly.


    Luca then said, "Grab your stuff and follow me."


    Now that they had met each other, Amur knew he could not run away from her. Hence, he did as she


    told him to. He walked to the corner of the room and took a medicine bottle.


    Luca narrowed her eyes as she looked at Solomon. "Looks like you sell more than just snake venom.


    What is that?"


    Solomon bit his lip. The injected venom was acting faster than it would through a de wound. The


    color on the corners of his lips was beginning to darken.


    "It''s alright if you don''t tell me. I’m just thinking, you guys wouldn''t dare call the police, right?" Luca


    noticed that the house was full of illegal paraphernalia, so they would not be stupid enough to report to


    the police.


    "I’m done," said Amur.


    Luca gave him a light kick and said, "Since you''re taller, can you hold him for me?"


    Amur nodded and circled his arm around Solomon''s neck right away. "Solomon Snake,e with us if


    you want to live."


    Solomon was in despair. He might have a chance if he was up against the woman alone, but with Amur


    alongside her, he had no choice but to surrender.


    "Let''s go." Luca looked at the two other men with a sharp look in her eyes. "You had better prepare the


    antidote if you don''t want him to die. Don''t try to follow us, or we''ll bring him further away."


    "Boss...” The men looked at him worriedly.


    "Don''t follow. Prepare the antidote and wait for me." Solomon held his breath as he gave the order.


    Luca walked away with Amur and Solomon behind her.


    They walked through two alleyways when Solomon could not help himself but say, "Guys, I think this is


    far enough. I don''t think I can go back if we go any further."


    He could feel his strength slowly seeping away from him. If they walked through another alley, he might


    not be able to go back to administer the antidote in time.


    If the venom started to act before he could administer the antidote, he would have to rest for a few days


    to regain his strength.


    "Alright. I''m going to give you a chance, but yourckeys had better not follow us, or you''ll regret it."


    Luca looked at Amur, signaling to let Solomon go.


    Solomon gasped for air. He dared not fight back even after he was free. He looked at Luca and Amur


    with a frazzled look on his face. He then turned around to walk away. He dared not quicken his pace


    because that would worsen the venom''s effects. He took one step at a time. They were slow and


    comical steps.


    Luca then said, "Let’s go."


    "Mm." Amur looked at Luca and followed her. He was utterly confused as to how they ran into each


    other at this ce.


    Luca walked through a few more alleys to make sure that Solomon was not following them. She


    stopped and looked up at Amur. They had not seen each other for some time. His face was skinnier


    than before.


    "Can you tell me why you''re here now?"


    Amur went silent for a moment and then said, "Where''s your ce? I’ll send you home."


    "Amur..." Luca''s voice sank as she pressed him. "Are you on a mission?"
