Chapter 246 Add Me
The sky outside the window began to darken, and the roar of circling helicopters continued to seep into the building, making people's eardrums hurt.
Zhu Yun leaned against the wall and looked outside carefully. He saw that the main road was full of armored vehicles and fully armed soldiers had surrounded the building.
"Chairman Zhu, we have to leave. I just sent someone to investigate, and the exits to the underground parking lot have been blocked. The only way left is to get to the rooftop. Although helicopters are a problem, I can handle it."
Zhu Yun shrank back, and just as she turned around, a rappelling belt was handed to her.
She frowned. "You mean I should leave first? What about the other people in the building?"
Wang Chun: "I'll find a way to attract the enemy's attention on the rooftop, and the security team will cover their evacuation through the underground passage. Everyone is panicking right now. No one can escape if we hesitate any longer. Rather than die here, we might as well give it a try!"
There is no time for them to hesitate. Once the other side starts launching missiles, no one will survive.
Zhu Yun understood politics but not war, but he also knew that what Wang Chun said was the best solution at the moment.
She had hoped that Jay Chou would send someone to rescue them, but as time passed, this hope gradually faded.
Jay Chou is not a god after all. She provided weapons and supplies for the march, sent security to maintain order, and even insisted on live streaming despite pressure from above. She has done everything she can.
After that, it’s up to them.
Zhu Yun lowered her eyes and thought, the more time she and Wang Chun could buy, the greater the chance of everyone surviving, right?
"I understand." She took the rappelling belt, tied it around her body, and picked up the loudspeaker before leaving the office to go to the rooftop.
On the rooftop, the helicopter's headlights swept back and forth, illuminating the entire platform as bright as day, without a trace of shadow.
Zhu Yun clenched the laser gun in her hand so tightly that her knuckles turned white. Before she could move, she heard a hissing sound and a hot red laser was fired from her side, hitting the helicopter accurately.
The entire cockpit was penetrated by lasers, and a shrill alarm suddenly sounded, breaking the silence under the night sky.
The out-of-control helicopter headed towards a distant building. With a loud bang, the glass shattered and thick smoke rose.
Wang Chun pulled Zhu Yun over and rushed to the edge of the platform. The strong wind blew up their clothes and their hair fluttered in the air.
Several helicopters flew over her head, and dense bullets rained down.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At that moment, Zhu Yun almost thought she was going to die here.
However, just before the rain of bullets was about to overwhelm them, the electromagnetic armor raised a dark blue electric net, melting all the incoming bullets into molten iron.
Zhu Yun came to her senses and immediately raised the laser gun in her hand to fight back, but she missed the target after several shots. The enemy began to mock her marksmanship.
The next moment, the laughing soldier was pierced by the laser and fell from the helicopter screaming.
"Well done!" Wang Chun praised.
By this time, she had tied the rope with swift movements, then took out an anchor from her waist bag and aimed it at the outer wall of the low building opposite.
With a click of the trigger, the anchor shot out and instantly nailed into the outer wall, and the entire rope became taut.
"Chairman Zhu, you go first, I'll cover you." She raised her hand and inserted the buckle into Zhu Yun's belt, and before she could come to her senses, she pushed her out of the rooftop.
Zhu Yun grabbed the rope at the moment of sliding down, his toes stepped on the edge of the roof, and there was a bottomless abyss under his feet.
She looked at Wang Chun intently, "Aren't you leaving?"
Wang Chun raised his laser gun, grinning, "If I leave, who will draw the enemy's fire?"
Zhu Yun was stunned.
The blinding light of the laser cut through the night sky, and the soldiers in the helicopter screamed and fell from the sky one after another.
Wang Chun's voice penetrated the fierce artillery fire and the whistling wind and reached Zhu Yun's ears clearly.
"Protecting civilians is the mission of the military."
But Wang Chun is not a soldier. She is just a bodyguard now and was a mercenary in the past.
A mercenary who can sell his soul and life for money.
However, honest soldiers are firing on civilians, and mercenaries who sell their souls for money choose to sacrifice themselves to protect civilians.
Zhu Yun's eyes were moist, "Add me in."
She undid the lock and walked to Wang Chun.
Wang Chun had just opened his mouth and hadn't uttered any words of objection when he heard a gunshot and the rope broke.
Zhu Yun nodded slightly at her and glanced around. "There are special forces all over this area. Even if I escape to the next building, I can't escape their encirclement. I might as well stay here with you."
She raised her face, looking calm, "Anyway, I've thought about it a long time ago. Maybe there will be such a day, and I'm already prepared."
Wang Chun's pupils trembled. She thought she was the only one in the world who was not afraid of death.
She fired again, "Okay, let's say goodbye to these despicable bugs together!"
Amid the deafening sound of gunfire, Zhu Yun picked up the loudspeaker at hand.
Her voice was calm and firm, clearly audible in the night breeze on the rooftop, and seemed distant amid the nearby gunfire.
"You're so eager to kill us because you're scared, right?"
"You're afraid that women will wake up, that men will fall from their pedestal of invincibility, and that the whole world will know that the equality you talk about is nothing but a complete lie!"
The electromagnetic armor's energy was used up, and the moment the power grid disappeared, bullets whizzed in and Zhu Yun was shot in the right shoulder.
She swayed a little, but gritted her teeth and held on, not falling down.
"You can kill me, but you can't kill all the women in the world. How can someone who has woken up fall asleep again? When she stands on the podium, she will never speak only for herself!"
"Given the decay of things, ideas never die. No amount of bullets can kill an awakened soul!"
Wang Chun stood in front of Zhu Yun, like a killing god, and wherever the laser passed, there were wails everywhere.
Zhu Yun raised the corner of his bloodstained lips, and his voice echoed in the wind.
"I believe that one day, women's belief in resistance will spread like a spark across the wilderness, and you will die along with this tyrannical and unjust world!"
————
The live broadcast was still going on. It was already very late, but the number of viewers in the live broadcast room increased instead of decreasing.
When the women heard Zhu Yun's final declaration of resistance, their eyes became wet.
[No, don’t die! ]
[Chairman Zhu, please stay alive. Only by living can there be hope!]
[Zhang Quanming, you beast, you did such an inhumane thing, you will get your comeuppance sooner or later!]
[No, I really don’t dare to watch it.]
When great despair and sadness overwhelmed everyone, Zhang Quanming in the Capitol building was still annoyed that he could not turn off Xinhuo's live broadcast room.
This doesn't make sense. There's no live streaming equipment at the scene, and the communication signals are blocked. How is this damn live streaming room still there? How on earth did Tianqiong do it?
On the other side, Liu Ming followed the crowd and broke out.
The security team led the charge, clearing a path for them. Under the night sky, lasers and bullets collided, the blinding light illuminating everyone's face.
Liu Ming held the camera tightly and pressed the shutter button continuously, capturing the faces of the crowd, some expressing fear, panic, and anger.
If she could get out alive, these photos would definitely become extremely valuable information, but if she died, the camera and the photos would be burned to ashes, leaving no trace.
Despite this, Liu Ming is extremely grateful that he witnessed this protest that will be remembered in history.
But hearing the continuous gunshots, she was still afraid deep down in her heart. If she died, would anyone in this world feel sad for her?
Lin Wei will definitely be sad for her. She promised to take a cruise with her to see the sea, but she is afraid that she is going to break her promise.
As for the mother who once scolded her for "reading too much and ruining her brain" and denounced her as "a pervert who likes women", if she knew that she died in a protest, she would probably say that she deserved it.
Liu Ming paused as he pressed the shutter button, a bitter smile forming on his lips.
At this moment, a vague voice came from the top of the building through the loudspeaker.
This voice... seems to be Chairman Zhu!
Liu Ming looked up in surprise, but could not see the person who was speaking. He could only see several helicopters hovering above the roof, with gunfire pouring down.
Her heart immediately tightened with worry. Has something happened to Chairman Zhu?
"Oh my God! Look at the building opposite!" someone in the crowd shouted.
Liu Ming turned his head and saw that the screen of the building opposite had lit up at some point.
Lines of bright red subtitles then appeared.
You can kill me, but you can't kill all the women in the world...
Things may decay, but ideas never die...
Liu Ming was stunned, and then realized that this was what Chairman Zhu was about to declare. It was her final struggle against the world.
The crowd also stopped moving forward and looked up at the words on the screen, their eyes trembling.
The gunfire stopped at some point, and the special forces gradually retreated.
The sudden silence filled everyone's hearts with unease. "Are we...safe?"
————
Wang Chun's electromagnetic armor also ran out of energy. The hand holding the laser gun drooped tiredly, and blood dripped down his fingers.
Zhu Yun stood shoulder to shoulder with her. The severe pain tore at her nerves, almost making her faint, but she still gritted her teeth and stood, unwilling to fall.
But to their surprise, the helicopter turned around and left.
Zhu Yun couldn't believe it. Could it be that Director Zhou bribed the military and made them retreat?
But somehow, they survived.
Zhu Yun looked at Wang Chun, and they saw the joy of rebirth in each other's eyes.
Now, they finally have time to sit down and rest for a while.
Zhu Yun looked up and was about to say something when he suddenly saw several brilliant streaks of light blooming in the distant night sky, with long flame tails, cutting through the pitch-black night.
"What beautiful fireworks..." She murmured subconsciously, with a faint smile on her lips.
But Wang Chun's expression suddenly changed. "Those are not fireworks, they are missiles!"
