Chapter 463 AN URGE TO KILL HIM

Chapter 463 AN URGE TO KILL HIM  It was strange, Apple and Jayden were in a situation where both of their lives were on the verge of death, but with the communication that was ongoing between the two of them, Apple actually felt a little relaxed in the midst of this situation.

Especially by hearing the comments from Jayden. The man seemed to know no fear and responded to all situations with a cool head.

Well, Jayden would only look like this, taking control of the situation if his trauma didn't kick in at a time when he felt triggered by what was around him.

"I think if I was there, I'd have the urge to shoot you, too," Apple replied dispassionately when she heard what Jayden had to say.

It was like a casual chat where the two of them were talking about light topics, instead of talking about people shooting at each other and implicating death.

Apple then walked to her left, where she didn't hear much. The place sounded much quieter. Looks like the seven people didn't check this part after they led the captives inside.

Of course, who would have thought that someone would sneak in, especially when they were out at sea.

Apple then walked very carefully down the corridor and found a door, where inside was only a pantry without any other doors.

Actually, Apple was quite surprised that they left the man alone with one of their captives and none of them suspected or looked for him.

How come? That was puzzling to Apple. After all, they shouldn't have left the guy with a young girl they'd be selling later, right?

Even so, Apple didn't have the time or resources to find out about it. But of course, she would talk to Jayden about the oddity when the two of them met later.

Apple then walked down the corridor, found two other rooms, but found no people being held captive. She then walked straight ahead until she found the third door where she heard the faint sound of a child crying.

It was the place where they kept the poor children, who, the oldest of them, were probably only a few years younger than Apple.

The girl then grabbed something from her jacket pocket, a penknife with several tools in it, which could help her to open the door.

The peak of being Pyro's daughter was; there was not a single door that Apple couldn't open. She could open all the doors with the tricks she learned from her father.

And in fact, she was able to open several safes without breaking them.

Wasn't that a wonderful talent? And Apple was proud that she had learned all the tricks from her father well.

Well, for her it was something she could be proud of.

It only took less than a minute for Apple to be able to open the door. She could see there were several children and teenagers sitting close to each other in the corner.

All eyes in the room stared at Apple with gazes full of fear and questions, for they had never seen this young girl before.

"Don't make noise, okay?" Apple whispered, pressed her finger to her lips and stepped inside. "I'm here to free you all," she said.

She then began to work on the lock of the door again and locked herself along with the children and youth inside.

They all stared at her in bewilderment as how could anyone who wanted to be in this room, be trapped with them.

Was this young girl really going to save them? Because she didn't look very reliable at all...

When Apple had relocked the door, she turned around to find the littlest girl there starting to cry.

"You said you would save us, but why did you lock the door again?" the little girl asked between her tears.

"Hey, did you just make a little kid cry?" Jayden asked through their communication device. "You are so bad."

"Shut up!" Apple growled at Jayden.

But of course the little girl didn't know that, and she thought Apple just snapped at her, because why not? Apple's facial expression was terrible and her voice sounded very sinister when she told Jayden to stop talking.

And the girl hugged a teenage girl of about fourteen or fifteen beside her, more tightly.

"Hey, hey… I'm not mad at you, okay?" Apple tried to persuade the poor girl, but instead she buried her face in the girl's arms.

While the others tried to stay away from her. They looked at Apple worriedly and almost cried too.

"I'm talking to someone." Then Apple showed the earpieces that were in her ears, while ignoring Jayden who said; say hi to them from me.

This man was such an asshole, how could he make jokes in a situation like this? Even Apple could hear clearly that the truce was still going on in Jayden's background right now. No wonder Misha had the urge to shoot his cousin.

"I'm here to save you guys, okay?" Apple then came closer to them, taking off her hat so they too could get a good look at her. "Do you know where you're going to be taken?"

They all shook their heads.

"How did they get all of you?" she asked again, at least, while waiting for Jayden's arrival she could get some information from them.

After all, there was nothing she could do while waiting.

"I was playing in the park," a boy, with cute curls, replied. "Then a man came and put me in the car."

"I was just coming home from school when a guy asked me out."

They all then notified Apple one by one.

But, while Apple listened to their explanation, she sensed that something was wrong with the communication tool. There were indistinct voices as Jayden spoke.

"Hey, I can't hear you very well," Apple said before communication was completely cut off.
