Chapter 402: Once Upon a Building-III
The guests mostly also recognize who was coming inside and with the people that came around, it was clear that they have come with not a good intention, some went away and others ran to a safer place they thought it was to protect their own life.
Arriving to the receptionist, Wang Li Lei went to the point, "Tell and request everyone to go out of this hotel immediately."
"I-Immediately?" The female receptionist stuttered, her eyes moving back and forth from her friends beside her to the people behind Wang Li Lei who were under his service dresses in black clothes as if they were celebrating a funeral. "W-We can't have that. It would take t-time." the woman felt scared when she noticed the guns hanging on all their waists and hands.
"It's fine if it's take time. Add to them if they don't go, they'll die." At the words, the woman gulped and went to run toward the manager's office, calling each room the phone to notify them what had taken place.
Xiao Yun who was behind Wang Li Lei went to stand by his left side, her face moved to see how all people were avoiding contact and when they were told to escape from the hotel, many rushed out as if an earthquake had happened to shake the whole building.
But Xiao Yun knows that Wang Li Lei had done it so innocent people wouldn't take harm in their fights. When they took to walk, they passed by the elevator and watching how they didn't took the elevator, she asked, "Isn't going through the elevator would save us some times?"
"Elevator has its own purpose. You'll know it better when the time comes." replied Wang Li Lei as he tilted his jaw, making the blue veins on his neck surfaced to his pale neck.
Elevator's purpose was to have people arrive at their destination at a faster speed, wasn't it? asked Xiao Yun to herself. Was there a code for elevator?
"Where are we going?" Xiao Yun turned her head to look how people have began to leave from the places. Tian Shi in particular left too, "Where is he going?" she asked.
"We will be going to the emergency case first. They are in the third floor now. And he if going to finish some business." replied Wang Li Lei to then stop at his place. His eyes looking down at Xiao Yun, first at her waist before to her hips, "Do you bring anything with you?" he asked and she gave him a nod.
Pulling out her baton, she showed him to hear him say, "That's not enough." Jang Hyun who was near him didn't have to hear another word as he had left to bring a small gun with a lighter weight.
As she take the gun, he spoke, "You're good at aiming with archery, it should t be much different. It isn't your first time using this, am I right?" he asked, remembering the day when she had died, she brought a gun with her.
"Yes." Xiao Yun replied, "I know." and all the weight that came with the gun, the heaviness of the gun and the heaviness to kill someone with it. "How many bullets is in here?"
"Seven, you could use this to refill the bullets, take two." Wang Li Lei said before placing the cartridges of bullets to her hand.
They then left the place in a rush walking to the third floor. First Wang Li Lei came to see his surrounding, pressing his shoulder to the wall and looked left before to right of the corridor. Finding no one, he went out from the door and followed by Xiao Yun, Hi Gu Yan, and Jang Hyun. The five people walked out of the emergency staircase. Hi Gu Yan being his mission to protect Xiao Yun only focuses to protect her.
They went out walking to the corridor and noticing the camera, Wang Li Lei spoke, "Have they secured the security room?"
Jang Hyun took a moment to check through his earpiece when Xiao Yun suddenly felt her waist pulled. Her back felt the wall and looking up she found Wang Li Lei was the one who had pushed her to the wall. His arm was on her head, covering it to protect her from anything where she could see how he had changed into a different person beneath him. Craning her neck, she saw how his face was turn on her right side. His brows were furrowed and anger had found its place to swirl a storm at his pair inky eyes.
With one hand on her head, Wang Li Lei used his other hand to shot the people who had dashed toward him. Xiao Yun looked to the other two people present with them. They had also taken their position to launch fire back at the men who came and in a split of second, the gunshots doubles in sound. She then witness the people dying down to collapse on the ground lifelessly.
"We have to move, there are still more to come." Hi Gu Yan said, his movements were fast but light.
"Well take left. They came from there meaning they are having something to protect to death there." which was Tang Guanyu, he suspected. He then released his arm from her head, his eyes were silent as he read between her expression, "Are you scared?" If one have seen death, others would think that they would slowly get used to the death, taking it nothing in emotion. But that was false. No matter how much body killed, fear and guilt was hard to run away from.
Xiao Yun was different from Wang Li Lei who had accepted death as his sidekick, but she wasn't showing a sign of wanting to leave like the wind. Her black eyes were straightforward as she looked at him, staring back at his eyes to shake her head.
He found how strong she was every time she was in her plight. She didn't run away, from the deaths of her surrounding, her death, or her fate. Her eyes were kept straight to the future she know will be there where they would be together.
