The only thing these people needed to pay attention to was not to be photographed while they were fighting. That was because when they fought, their masks were likely to be taken off, and they might also be injured. If their information was captured by the surveillance cameras making their faces known and people knew where they were injured, even if the authorities were tracking them based on their features, it would be very disadvantageous for them while they make their escape.
These people seemed as though they were not cautious enough, but in fact, they were very professional! They did not waste any more time arranging other things. After killing, they would leave. What they pursued was speed!
“They went upstairs. They probably want to make a move on Miss Jiang Tong.” As Wang Yi said this, Zhou Jingyun stepped on the accelerator. The Bentley suddenly sped up and rushed crazily to the innermost part of the car park. When it was close to the elevator door, Zhou Jingyun stepped on the brake. The Bentley stopped only when it was two or three meters away from the elevator door. The SUVs behind also accelerated and stepped on the brakes.
Zhou Jingyun got out of the car and ran over. He pressed the elevator button several times. Of course, it was too late. The elevator door closed when Wang Yi finished speaking. At this time, the elevator had already reached the fourth floor.
“Go upstairs, take the stairs, go to the fifth floor!” Zhou Jingyun suddenly turned his head and shouted. A large group of bodyguards who had just gotten out of the car moved and ran directly to the stairs. Some did not move and stayed to protect Zhou Jingyun. Wang Yi walked over with his hand in his pocket. He did not take it out but he had a gun. He would not use it easily unless he could not handle the situation without one. Wang Yi alertly looked at his surroundings, then looked at the elevator indicator arrow. The elevator stopped on the fourth floor and then it reached the fifth floor. Wang Yi immediately understood what was going on. These people were going to block Jiang Tong in the elevator! They were not going to go up to the fifth floor directly! It was because if Jiang Tong happened to go down and saw a large group of people in the elevator, she would notice something was wrong and might not enter the elevator. Therefore, they went to the fourth floor to ambush her! As long as Jiang Tong entered the elevator, they would call for the elevator on the fourth floor. When the elevator came down, they could all enter the elevator at once and block Jiang Tong who had entered the elevator first.
Wang Yi, who was a retired special forces soldier and had undergone special security training, could even guess that someone must have gone up to the fifth floor first to keep an eye on when Jiang Tong would come down so that the people downstairs could seize the time to go up! The elevator went up to the fifth floor. At this time, Zhou Jingyun also took out his cell phone and dialed Jiang Tong’s phone number to warn her!
“Du du du…” the phone actually couldn’t get through! Zhou Jingyun continued to call, but still couldn’t get through! At this time, the elevator had stopped on the fifth floor, and then descended to the fourth floor!
“Miss Jiang Tong has entered the elevator,” said Wang Yi, his expression unsightly. They seemed to be a step too late! Zhou Jingyun immediately understood that there was no signal in the elevator. He turned around and was about to run to the stairs, but was stopped by Wang Yi. “Boss, you can’t go.” He couldn’t let Zhou Jingyun take the risk, he was also afraid that he wouldn’t be able to persuade Zhou Jingyun. After a pause, he said, “It’s too late to go now.”
It was indeed too late because the elevator and the stairway in the shopping mall were not located in the same area. They couldn’t be next to each other. They had to run to the other end of the car park before they could enter the elevator. Some of Zhou Jingyun’s bodyguards had also run in that direction just now. The reason why they were not built next to each other was because of the fire safety regulations. The stairs were a safe passage, and the shopping mall was too big. They had to build many stairs and distribute them rationally. The elevators would be built at a convenient location for customers to use. They could not install elevators near every staircase so instead, there were more escalators built in the shopping mall.
Zhou Jingyun felt that something was wrong. He raised his hand to support his forehead. His eyes were bloodshot and his breathing became heavier. He looked at the elevator lights that kept showing the descending number. Zhou Jingyun suddenly stretched out his hand and gestured to Wang Yi. “Give me the gun,” said Zhou Jingyun.
There were eight people in the elevator, so there was a bit of space in the crowded elevator. At the moment when seven of them attacked at the same time, Jiang Tong also moved. She moved even faster, instantly snatching away the knife that the person closest to her had just pulled out. At the same time, she stabbed the other person under the ribs. Her other hand grabbed the back of the person’s collar and pulled, pulling the person in front of her to use him as a shield. Then, she pushed the person fiercely. She used her free hand to grab the arm of the other person who was holding a knife and swung it at him, using his hand to stab his own neck.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The sound of a collision rang out in the elevator! The elevator kept going down. Some were bleeding, and some were screaming. The elevator shook a little, but it did not stop descending.
