The abandoned factory was fairly big inside. It used to be a processing place for producing cartons, which was later abandoned
because it failed to meet environmental requirements. There were still broken and useless machines stored inside, and ssemi-
finished carton products.
After Luther and Karl got in, the two hid behind a CNC machine.
For the tbeing, they haven't found Thomas' hiding place.
Karl lifted his wrist and looked at his watch.
The tshowed that it was after 4:00 am.
The surrounding area was so dark that they could barely see their fingers.
They didn’t want to alert Thomas, so they dared not use the flashlight, and could only sneak around in the dark.
"In another hour, it will be daylight." Karl said in a low voice, "We could get a better chance after the sun comes up."

"But we haven't found out where he is?" Luther whispered.
"He should be right here, no mistake. No hurry, wait patiently." Karl lowered his voice again.
In fact, he was more worried that Jan and Rory would not be able to wait patiently. After all, they were from the underworld and
people there never cared too much about patience. They were straightforward, and were long used to fighting and killing. It might
be a bit difficult for the two to wait patiently.
Luther had to admit that at this point, Karl was really calm. No wonder he was criminal police. He had been used to it and he could
spend a few days and nights chasing a suspect.
At this point, Jan and Rory both hid on the other side.
After waiting for a while, Rory had becimpatient, "Why don’t we just rush out? We sure can catch that weak chick alone."
Jan said, "Bullshit. Forget it, listen to the police, remember what Felix said?"
"Hey, that's slow."
On the other side, Karl and Luther waited for a few moments.
Suddenly, they heard someone talking right within the factory, and it was like someone was making a phone call. They could not
hear the conversation very clearly, but still, they understood what he meant.
Karl nudged Luther gently, signaling the source of the phone's voice, which must be where Thomas was.
Luther instantly understood, and the two of them sneaked quietly towards the source of the sound.
At this tThomas was calling Charlotte.
When he got through, he said only one thing.
"78 Jade Avenue, the abandoned factory next to Seabank Container Port, tell your men to send the bank cards."
Then, he immediately hung up the phone and looked around.
It was pitch black all around, except when his phone lit up just now illuminating a small area around him.

Jan and Rory, at the stkeenly aware of the light source, just a short distance ahead of them.
Rory had long been waiting impatiently, and at this moment completely forgot Karl's instructions. He and Jan both quickly swooped
out of the darkness, blocking the way from both sides, and rushed directly to the source of the light.
Thomas must be right there.
They all wanted to catch him in one go.
However, to their surprise, when they rushed out, they found several machines placed horizontally and vertically in front of them,
and the whole place was like a maze. There was no way for them to block the way together.
And Thomas, when he heard the movement of them rushing out, quickly followed the route he had planned to escape from the
abandoned warehouse.
"Clang!" When the back door of the warehouse was then closed with a loud bang.
Jan and Rory both knew they made a mistake.
They should really wait patiently following Karl's instructions, but now it was too late to regret...
