Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

717  Saving Girlfriends

The Blood Hunters' warehouse was filled with the tension of anticipation. The gang members were a mix of seasoned professionals, each one trained to handle high-stress situations. At the moment, they were engrossed in their conversations, their focus on the captured women rather than on their surroundings.

The Blood Hunters had a reputation for being meticulous. Among them were some key figures: Luis Ortega, the gang's ruthless leader with a reputation for violence; Javier Morales, the intimidating enforcer known for his brutal efficiency; and Sofia Delgado, the cunning strategist who always seemed to be two steps ahead. Their presence in the warehouse made it clear that this was no ordinary operation.

Wang Jian gripped the rifle tightly, his eyes narrowing as he formulated his plan. He had to act with precision. His goal was to create a distraction that would draw the gang members away from Emma and Jessica while ensuring he remained hidden and undetected.

He moved silently through the shadows, making his way to a stack of barrels on the far side of the warehouse. With practiced ease, he positioned himself behind them and took aim at the overhead lights. The warehouse was dimly lit, and the few lights that were on cast eerie shadows across the room. Wang Jian's fingers tightened around the trigger as he lined up his shot.

A single shot rang out, striking one of the overhead lights and sending it crashing to the ground. The room was plunged into darkness, and the sudden loss of light caused a flurry of activity among the gang members.

"What the hell was that?" Luis Ortega's voice cut through the chaos, his tone laced with anger and confusion.

"Everyone, check it out!" Javier Morales barked orders, his voice sharp as he grabbed his rifle. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Wang Jian seized the moment. He darted from behind the barrels, moving swiftly but quietly towards the main area of the warehouse. He used the darkness as his cover, slipping past the panicked gang members who were scrambling to understand what was happening.

As he approached the pole where Emma and Jessica were tied, he saw Sofia Delgado, her sharp eyes scanning the shadows for any sign of trouble. Wang Jian knew he had to be careful; Sofia was known for her perceptiveness.

He crouched beside the pole, his heart racing as he worked to free the ropes binding Emma and Jessica. They looked up at him with a mix of surprise and relief, their eyes wide and shimmering with tears. Wang Jian's fingers moved deftly, cutting through the ropes with the precision of someone who had honed his skills over countless battles.

"Stay quiet," he whispered softly, his voice barely audible above the chaos. "I'm getting you out of here."

Emma's dark brown eyes met his with a look of trust, while Jessica's blue eyes filled with a mix of gratitude and fear. Wang Jian's calm demeanor reassured them, even as the noise of the gang members searching the warehouse grew louder.

"Whoever's out there, come out now!" Sofia Delgado's voice called out, her tone commanding and sharp. "I won't ask again."

Wang Jian didn't respond. Instead, he led Emma and Jessica towards the back exit, carefully avoiding the gang members who were still searching the warehouse. He used his knowledge of the layout to guide them, moving with the grace and stealth of someone who had trained for this moment.

As they neared the back door, Wang Jian heard footsteps approaching. He quickly pulled Emma and Jessica into a nearby storage room, concealing them behind a stack of crates. He positioned himself near the door, his rifle ready, as he listened for any signs of the approaching gang members.

The door creaked open, and Wang Jian tensed, his eyes narrowing as he prepared for a confrontation. Two gang members stepped into the room, their flashlights scanning the area. Wang Jian held his breath, waiting for the right moment to act.

With a swift, calculated move, he lunged forward, knocking one of the gang members unconscious with the butt of his rifle. The second man reached for his weapon, but Wang Jian was faster. He disarmed him with a quick twist of his wrist and delivered a decisive blow that sent the man crumpling to the floor.

Wang Jian's heart raced, but his movements remained fluid and controlled. He quickly searched the unconscious men for any useful equipment and found a set of walkie-talkies. He took one and activated it, hoping to create further confusion among the gang members.

"Attention all units," he spoke into the walkie-talkie, his voice imitating one of the gang members. "We've got a breach in the east warehouse. Everyone, converge on that location immediately."

The response was immediate. "Copy that," came the static-filled reply.

With the gang members diverted to the east warehouse, Wang Jian led Emma and Jessica out of the storage room and towards the back exit. The warehouse was still chaotic, but the distraction had given them a crucial window of opportunity.

As they made their way outside, Wang Jian couldn't help but notice how Emma and Jessica looked despite their distress. Their torn clothes clung to their bodies in a way that made them both incredibly alluring and heartbreaking. Their vulnerability only fueled Wang Jian's determination to get them to safety.

The night air was cool as they stepped outside, and Wang Jian guided them towards a nearby alleyway. He had planned to take them to a safe location where they could regroup and figure out their next steps. But as they reached the alley, he heard the sound of more footsteps approaching.

Wang Jian's instincts kicked in. He quickly pulled Emma and Jessica into a concealed corner, pressing their bodies against the wall as they waited in silence. His eyes scanned the area, searching for any signs of the approaching gang members.

"Stay quiet," he whispered, his voice steady and calm. "We have to be careful."

Emma and Jessica nodded, their eyes wide with fear but also trust in Wang Jian's ability to protect them. They clung to each other, their bodies pressed close together as they waited for the danger to pass.

After a tense few minutes, the footsteps receded, and Wang Jian slowly emerged from the alleyway. He led Emma and Jessica towards a nearby hotel, where he had booked a room for them to rest and recover.

Once inside the hotel room, Wang Jian quickly checked the area to ensure they were safe. He then turned to Emma and Jessica, his expression softening as he took in their disheveled and exhausted forms.

"You're safe now," he said gently. "Get some rest. I'll make sure no one finds us here."

Emma and Jessica nodded, their eyes filled with gratitude as they settled onto the bed. Wang Jian left the room to make sure the hotel was secure, his mind racing with thoughts of the Blood Hunters and how he would deal with them.

The night was far from over, and Wang Jian knew he had a lot of work ahead of him. But for now, he allowed himself a moment of relief, knowing that Emma and Jessica were safe and that he had managed to outsmart the Blood Hunters—at least for the time being.
