Bang!
The sound of gunfire echoed in the corridor. The silver pocket pistol spit out flames, and the high-speed spinning bullet flew out of the barrel, carrying powerful kinetic energy through the layers of gunpowder and heading straight for Akai Mary's chest.
The other party didn't seem to want to get too entangled, and there was murderous intent in his eyes, not giving Akai Mary any time to escape.
The bullet was heading for her chest. Akai Mary opened her eyes wide and wanted to dodge, but after taking APTX4869, she was weak and not as agile as before. She could only watch the bullet coming at her.
"Mom!!!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the girl suddenly took action, grabbed Akai Mari's clothes and pulled her back!
The bullet narrowly missed Akai Mari, tearing her blue dress and leaving a bloody wound on her shoulder, then hit the wall but did not hit her directly.
“Go!”
Mary Akai, who escaped the disaster, was not happy. She pulled the girl and ran upwards. She had no weapons in her hands and had no confidence in defeating the enemy. The safest way was to run away!
"Where can we escape to?"
Amid the murmurs, the woman holding the silver pocket pistol ran after it, taking three steps at a time at a very fast speed, as if an eagle soaring in the sky had locked onto a rabbit running on the grassland and was clinging to it tightly, with an icy breath lingering around her neck and a creepy chill spreading throughout her body.
“Cough…cough cough!”
After running up several floors, Akai Mary's breathing suddenly became disordered. She held the railing and started coughing violently. Just as she was delayed, the woman appeared at her feet.
The situation was urgent. The girl with a bag on her back picked up Akai Mari by the waist and continued to flee with her long legs, her heartbeat beating like a war drum.
However...
"You can't escape like this."
Akai Mary's face was a little pale, and she kept coughing:
"She keeps chasing us and won't give us the chance to take the elevator. The hotel has become a secret room. She is squeezing our living space and will definitely push us to the edge of a cliff in the end!"
The hotel has only 27 floors in total. They have already escaped to the 20th floor, but the woman is still chasing them. If they dare to stop, they will face ruthless bullets.
Mountains always have a peak. When they reach the top, is there any way to retreat?
"Then give it a try!"
The girl pressed the fire alarm button on the wall hard. Suddenly, the sound of fire alarm rang out in the hotel. The guests were stunned for a moment and then started to panic. There was a fire!
Mary Akai was not someone who would sit there and wait for death. While escaping, her brain was working rapidly, thinking about ways to break the impasse.
In addition to the elevator and the fire escape, is there a third escape route in the hotel?
No, but there is a helipad on the roof that can be used to park a fire helicopter. This is also the purpose of the girl ringing the fire alarm. As long as they can attract a helicopter, they still have a chance to escape!
Or use the second method, escape back to the room on the 27th floor, lock the door, and fight the enemy... No, this method won't work!
Mary Akai shook her head and forgot about the idea. Staying in the room would undoubtedly fall into the other party's trap. What was the difference between her and a lamb to be slaughtered?
If the other party really sets a fire, they will be unable to escape!
Guests began to appear in the emergency passage trying to escape. Everyone knew that one should not take the elevator in case of fire, but there were always exceptions. When they returned to the 27th floor, Akai Mary took a look at the elevator and found that the numbers on it hardly moved, which meant that there were people wanting to take the elevator on every floor, which eventually led to overcrowding and the elevator stopped at every floor. If a fire really broke out, taking the elevator would only become more dangerous.
"Go to the rooftop!"
Akai Mary made a prompt decision. The woman would appear at the staircase at any time. They had no time to hesitate, let alone wait for the elevator. The final way out...
Only the helipad on the roof is left.
The Tokyo Princess Tower Hotel is equipped with an integrated system. Under normal circumstances, the door leading to the helipad on the 27th floor is locked. However, when the fire alarm sounds, the system automatically opens the electronic lock, making it convenient for rescue personnel to arrive at the scene by helicopter.
Rushing to the rooftop, the girl turned around and tried to close the fire door again, but the door lock was electronically controlled and they could only close it but not lock it, and the people inside could open the door at any time.
There were milky white clouds floating overhead, the sky was clear and a warm wind was blowing. This should have been a peaceful scene, but at this moment it was like a giant bite that made people feel despair.
"Mom, there's no way out."
The girl said softly.
"Um."
Akai Mary jumped to the ground, patted the girl's thigh, and said:
"She is coming for me. I will lead her away later. You can take the opportunity to escape and find your second brother."
"...I won't leave."
"Do you remember our previous agreement?"
The wind blew her short golden hair, and Akai Mary said seriously:
"At this critical moment, you must obey me in everything. This is the first requirement for me to agree to your participation."
“........”
The girl was silent for a moment, biting her lip, and still shook her head:
"I won't abandon you."
"She only has one person and a gun, there must be a way!"
"You don't know her at all."
Akai Mary walked to the edge of the rooftop and gazed down at the crowded streets below:
"Your father fought her in the past, but he never got the upper hand. Her close combat ability is far better than her marksmanship. You can't beat her."
"If it was me before, maybe I would have a chance, but now..."
"I want you to live, Zhenchun, and don't let my promise become empty words."
The girl looked at Akai Mary in shock, she had never seen her mother look so sad. A professionally trained agent would not easily reveal her true feelings. In front of everyone, Akai Mary was always a strong, rational and calm character. Even when Akai Wuwu was missing, she never cried.
But the girl knew very well that Akai Mari had always suppressed her emotions. It was not that she was not sad, but that she could not let herself be sad. She could not collapse, and she dared not collapse...
The girl couldn't help but think of a small figure, a figure that was deeply engraved in her memory.
If anyone can break through...
It must be him, the magician...
Wow!
Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the rooftop, a black shadow covered the sky, and white wings soared in the sky, like a falcon spreading its wings and crying, then it lightly tapped its toes and landed lightly on the edge of the rooftop.
"Hey, two beautiful ladies."
Kidd took off his white top hat, with a gentleman's smile on his face:
"Want a ride?"
The girl opened her eyes wide and stared at him blankly, her head a mess.
It was indeed a magician who came to save them, but...
This magician had a pair of silver wings and descended from the sky at the most critical moment to lend them a helping hand.
"Don't be silent..."
Kidd scratched his head, the atmosphere was a little awkward:
"I'm a good person..."
