The iron gate was slowly sliced open by the flames from that small metal bottle. Emily, who had been staring intently at Angel, was starting to have a mental breakdown. What Li Jia and Angel had shown her from the ball to now was something she had never seen before, which made her wonder, "Was I, the prospective heir to a Chinese-American gang, fooled all along? How come everything I've encountered before seems so naive in comparison to these two?"
"Almost there, the bottle's capacity is still too small. I'll research and improve it when I have the chance." As Angel spoke, she placed the bottle into the pendant, took a step back, and then extended her slender, beautiful leg. With a "clang! creak!" she kicked the small opening in the iron gate, causing it to flip over. Then she crouched down and strode out. "Safe, Master!"
"Emily, get out! Be quick, we have four minutes to get out of the blast radius of this building, we should still make it." After saying that, Li Jia helped Emily out of the iron gate, and then stepped out herself.
As soon as the three of them stepped out of the iron gate, they immediately ran towards the parking lot exit. The underground parking lot of the Kawa Hotel was not large, but its design was very complicated. The exit passage and the entrance passage were both winding and extended. From the iron gate that Li Jia and the others came out of, it was at least a kilometer away from the exit. When Li Jia pulled Emily and Angel to the underground parking lot exit in one breath, the scene in front of them made Emily almost sit down on the ground.
"Are we not going to get out?" Emily asked breathlessly. The rapid run had pushed her to her limit, and she was exhausted. They finally reached the exit, only to be met with a tightly closed, electrically controlled roller shutter door!
"Hehe, no need to rush, we still have three minutes. Angel, go open the door." Li Jia always had a faint smile on her face. After seeing the roller shutter door in front of her, Li Jia turned to comfort Emily and then asked Angel to open the door.
"Yes, Master!" After Angel finished speaking, she stepped forward and pressed her ear against the door to listen quietly. After confirming that there was no danger on the door, Angel turned around and smiled at Emily, then raised the gun in her hand and frantically swept it across the roller shutter door!
Sixty rounds of 7.62mm rifle bullets from two AKs struck the roller shutter door at close range. The violent bullets pierced the hollow roller shutter door, creating a sieve-like pattern. After emptying both magazines, Angel replaced them with two spare magazines and continued to fire wildly in front of the door, still holding both hands. In less than a minute, spent cartridge cases were scattered around Angel. After Angel emptied the last two magazines, a door-frame-shaped mark appeared in front of the three people.
"Let's go!" After saying that, Li Jia stepped forward and kicked the already dilapidated iron gate, threw the things in her hand to Angel, and then, empty-handed, grabbed Emily's hand and ran out of the underground parking lot. The three of them ran as fast as they could towards the Kawa Hotel!
After running for a dozen steps, Emily accidentally fell to the ground. Li Jia immediately stopped, turned around, and pulled Emily up. "Ouch! That hurts!" Emily's kneecap was bleeding, and she couldn't use her leg to run fast.
Looking at the time, Li Jia immediately snatched the item from Emily's hand and threw it to Angel. Grabbing Emily's arm, she carried Emily on her back and then followed Angel, quickly running away into the distance.
How far could one run in thirty seconds? Almost simultaneously with the explosion at the Kawa Hotel, the multi-story building was reduced to rubble by the sheer force of the C4. Li Jia and the other two were thrown to the ground by the blast wave, flying debris raining down on them. Emily, nestled in Li Jia's arms, tightly closed her eyes…
When everything settled down, Emily, nestled in Li Feng's arms, saw the emerald green jade gourd emerging from Li Jia's neck. Instantly, a flood of hazy memories rushed into Emily's mind...
