Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 722

Kenneth rushed over to Boss' house as fast as he could.

The moment his car screeched to a halt, he could see the ground littered with bodies of those from Vermillion Base.

It wasn't hard to see whose handiwork it was.

Thereafter, Kenneth quickly followed the trail.

The second floor that was blown apart when he escaped back then had now been repaired. The smell of wet cement could still be detected in the air.

The moment Kenneth arrived at the door and prepared to enter, he heard a sudden noise behind him. Turning around, he saw the men who had newly arrived aiming their guns at him.

Without a moment's delay, he dived for cover.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Multiple gunshots rang out, followed by the thud of bullets peppering the wall he was hiding behind.

“Search inside and kill them all,” a voice barked outside.

With his body hugging the wall, Kenneth broke into a smirk at the sound of the voice.

He could sense Boss' indignance. Despite the terrible loss he had suffered, the latter insisted on making sure all of them were eliminated.

The next moment, Kenneth gave his surroundings a quick scan. When he saw some items on the table beside him, he grabbed all of them and hurled them outside.

In response, the men outside began firing indiscriminately.

Gun in hand, Kenneth made a split-second decision the moment the gunshots ended. He then took aim and fired a single shot each at the gunmen.

When a few of them collapsed onto the ground, the rest scattered to find cover.

Kenneth had no desire to draw out the battle, for he knew that the priority was locating Dave and the others. Holstering his gun, he walked upstairs right away.

Nevertheless, he had barely taken two steps when he saw the men outside continue their pursuit.

Narrowing his eyes, Kenneth pondered a moment before an idea popped into his head. The very next second, he burst into a sprint toward the second floor.

This is the exact same position and place as last time.

Staring at the tightly closed door, Kenneth approached it to examine its lock. The facial recognition mechanism had now been replaced by one that required a fingerprint and code to unlock.

Kenneth frowned in response. I could use Natasha or Anthony's expertise in a time like this. This wouldn't stop them at all.

Kenneth walked to the door and pounded on it.

“Dave, Spencer!” he yelled.

An anxious voice suddenly rang out. “Kenneth? Is that you, Kenneth?”

Kenneth's fears were eased when he heard an answer. He shouted through the door, “It's me. Are you guys all right?”

“We're fine. It's just that Spencer didn't find the antidote after rummaging through the place,” Dave replied.

“Forget about it for now. Come out first,” Kenneth ordered.

“The problem is we can't!”

“What are you talking about?”

“The door has a self-destruct mechanism. If we try to break it by force, we would trigger it and be annihilated here.”

Kenneth's eyes darkened at the news.

It seems that Boss still has a trick or two up his sleeve. It does make sense, though. Ever since I left the last time, Boss was certain that I would return for the antidote. Moreover, he set all this up just for me... Unexpectedly, Natasha's sudden departure foiled my original plan. Otherwise, I would be the one inside right now!

At that moment, Kenneth stared intently at the door again. He couldn't imagine how he was going to forgive himself if Dave and Spencer were killed on his account.

Clenching his fists, he instructed, “Wait for me. I'll definitely figure out a way to rescue you.” With a grim look in his eyes, Kenneth swiftly scanned his surroundings.

As long as the system can be set up, there must be a way to turn it off. I cannot allow history to repeat itself!
