He must have exhausted himself from kicking the door for so long, as he was now leaning on his knee, gasping for breath.
His breathing was heavy, like an old bellows, wheezing with every inhale and exhale, each sound grating on my nerves.
He was resting while I was searching for an opportunity to escape.
Since he could accurately find his way to my door, it indicated that he was very familiar with this place.
What on earth was going on?
"Do you think someone targeted by me, Mao Wang, can still run away?"
His voice was hoarse, like it had been sanded down, and it was jarring to hear.
Mao Wang?! The chairman of the Umbrella Corporation?
Why was he doing this?
Moreover, the information showed that he was blind, yet his series of movements as he walked over and kicked the door did not require any guidance; in fact, he walked more steadily than I did as a sighted person.
"Open the door; perhaps if I'm in a good mood, I might let you leave comfortably."
He coaxed me, but I could hear the threat beneath his words.
If I opened the door, he would definitely gouge my eyes out!
"Three..."
He began to count down while I desperately braced myself against the door to prevent him from pulling it open from the outside.
The wooden door was old, and the frame had loosened; dust fell with each kick he delivered.
I glanced up and saw the screws in the doorframe shaking with each impact, as if they could fall at any moment.
"Two..."
His strength was clearly much greater than mine; each kick made the doorframe loosen a little more.
I pressed against the door in despair, feeling the immense force coming from it, as if I could see my bloodied future ahead of me.
"One..."
As I heard the sound of Mao Wang kicking the door, I began to piece together the information from my memories. Mao Wang, the head of the Umbrella Corporation, was once a legendary figure in the chemical industry.
Thirteen years ago, he claimed to be developing a new material that could fill significant gaps in the chemical field and even surpass what other countries had achieved. The news of this new material sparked widespread attention from both the media and the scientific community. Everyone who heard about it wanted to see what this material, which was said to have the potential to surpass anything in the world, actually looked like.
However, Mao Wang delayed its release and kept the research process under tight security, not allowing anyone to come close. Until one day, a sudden explosion destroyed his laboratory. It was said that the explosion was devastating; by the time firefighters arrived, the entire lab had turned to ashes, and Mao Wang was found amidst the ruins.
He was rescued, but his eyes were completely destroyed. After that, Mao Wang attempted suicide countless times but failed each time. Consequently, the business of Umbrella Corporation plummeted. The once-mythical corporation vanished from sight, and the exalted Mao Wang was brought down from his pedestal.
"Thirteen years ago, I was conducting experiments in this research institute, thinking I could benefit all of humanity, but due to a mistake made by my assistant, an accident occurred during the experiment..." Mao Wang's voice was hoarse and deep, as if it came from hell itself. "That fire not only burned down my laboratory but also blinded me..."
I listened silently, not daring to say a word.
