Ch. 4 The Family Jewels
As Joel and Kim stepped onto the parking lot at the Queen of Hearts escort service, a long black limo suddenly swerved next to them. The back door opened and the 3 Japanese men jumped from the car. They held automatic rifles in their hands, and they made Joel and Kim get into the car. They tied the 2 together, and drove off. They pulled up to an abandoned warehouse by the river, and led Joel and Kim from the car.
Kim was shaking with fear, and Joel tried to look calm, although he also was very scared. Suddenly Joel felt a thud on the back of his head. He wasn't sure how long he had been knocked out, but could tell by the large sore lump on the back of his head, that it was probably quite a while. He looked around the room, he was still seeing pretty blurry, and hadn't had a headache like this since the time he drank 2 bottles of cheap gin with beer chasers. Joel felt like shit, his vision began clearing a bit. He didn't see Kim anywhere, or anyone else. He was tied up to a chair in an empty office.
He could hear the sound of a forklift roaring in the warehouse, and could hear voices, but couldn't see anyone. Joel tried to wiggle free from the ropes, but these guys had tied him good. He struggled in vain, and only made the ropes tighter. His wrists were raw from the tight ropes, and Joel cussed and mumbled to himself. He was clueless about what to do, and sat there wishing he could light a cigarette. "Leave me alone, you bastards!" "Just take your fucking hands off of me" "Damn, it's Kim" Joel thought to himself. He was helpless, and felt really bad that he couldn't do anything for Kim. Suddenly the office door flew open, and the 3 goons that kidnapped him walked in, and a small elderly Asian man walked behind them.
Joel gave the men his dirtiest look, but that was all he could do. "Well, Mr. detective, it seems you are in a little over your head" the small man said. "Oh, how rude of me, let me introduce myself" he added. "I am Miyuki Huang, perhaps you have heard of me" he said laughing. The 3 goons laughed also. "You have been given plenty of time to walk away from this case" the man said. "But, you are either very stubborn or very foolish" he continued. "Now, your girlfriend will pay for your foolishness" he said. "Bring in the girl" he ordered the 3 men. They walked out of the room, and quickly returned with Kim. She had her hands tied behind her back, and her face was battered and bruised.
Small droplets of blood trickled down the corner of her swollen mouth. "Oh, Joel" she sobbed. "Kim" Joel said. "I am so sorry" he added. "Ok, men show Mr. Detective what he has in store for him" the man said. The leader of the 3 men pulled a knife from his waist, and began cutting Kim's shirt from her. The sharp knife now sliced easily through her bra, and it fell to the floor. Her small breasts now bare, one of the men leaned over, and took one of her tiny brown nipples into his mouth. "Damn you" she yelled as he bit her roughly. He removed his mouth, and blood oozed from her nipple. They quickly removed the rest of her clothing, and she stood there totally naked, and helpless.
