Recently, it has been snowing heavily, and there is a thick layer of snow everywhere, and the snowdrifts that the workers have piled up on the side of the road are even more like hills.

Liu Zhan had an idea, it was a very stupid idea, even he thought he was stupid, but it was better than being shot indiscriminately.

"Open the window. He ordered Thiago.

The president was still stunned, his hands under his crotch, so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

Liu Zhan pressed the tip of the letter opener under the president's eye, Thiago let out a piercing scream, and the guns in the hands of the guards were aimed at Liu Zhan, but no one dared to shoot.

The president clumsily reached back a hand and pulled open the latch of the window, and a bitter cold wind poured in through the open window.

Liu Zhan's idea of gambling is ridiculous, but if he doesn't gamble, he will be hit into a hornet's nest by bullets on the spot.

Liu Zhan is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that what is worse than death may fall into the hands of Wren again.

And he has a big card in his hand, the president.

Liu Zhan put one arm around Thiago and lifted him up with all his strength, and both of them rolled out of the window at the same time, their bodies wrapped around and falling from a height of three stories.

Maybe Liu Zhan wasn't completely insane, because Thiago was right under him when they fell into the snow. Liu Zhan's gamble is that the president is huge, and the snow has not frozen.

The two of them fell on the snow with a click, and the sharp pain in the ribs made Liu Zhan's brain go blank in an instant.

When Liu Zhan came to his senses, he realized that the clicking sound just now came from Thiago's wrist and arm.

The president's eyes were staring vacantly ahead, his mouth open and smelling of borscht.

There were blood stains on the snow, and the wound on Liu Zhan's ear burst again.

Liu Zhan heard shouts coming from upstairs, but there were no gunshots, and the guards were afraid that they would hurt the president, who they didn't know that he had passed out in pain.

Liu Zhan grabbed a handful of snow, held down his bleeding ear, and stumbled forward. Shots rang off from upstairs, and bullets hit the snow around him.

He struggled to move forward in the snow, as hard as running in water, and he struggled to speed up his pace, not daring to stop. When he finally stepped on solid ground, he immediately started running, and as he ran, he said to himself, "You have to change your boots, which are literally deadly."

After escaping from the church, Mary quickly ran back to the cloud bar, and the image in her mind lingered, as if Liu Zhan was alive in front of her.

She felt like she was about to collapse, she hadn't slept well since she set foot on Ilian soil, and she hadn't slept all night last night. She didn't know what to do, so she could only stare at the empty coffee cup in front of her and sit and wait.

The wooden chair she was sitting on hurt her bones, and even though she didn't want to sleep, her head hung down involuntarily.

Joseph, who had been keeping an eye on Mary, saw her exhausted appearance and said, "Follow me." He whispered and shook her shoulder. Joseph led Mary to another alcove with a curtain in the doorway, which was crammed with two shabby sofas, two or three meters apart, with a few cushions on them.

"Take a break here. He said, "It'll be more comfortable." "He can still stay away from his mother

point, although he didn't say it.

Mary lay on the cushion and felt like she was safely lying in a person's arms, and couldn't help but sigh gratefully.

"At night, when we use the computer, we take turns sleeping here. ”

"Night owls, you children. Mary grunted with a yawn.

"It's all the same, it's only a third of the day."

"No, we don't like to stay up late, because it's cheaper to go online after 12 o'clock at night. ”

"The revolution of the proletariat.

"We have to do it. ”

"I will not forget my promise, and I will definitely find a way to help you when I return home."

Joseph closed the curtains, and Mary fell asleep a few seconds later, but she didn't sleep peacefully at all, and the dream was noisy and chaotic and accompanied by the sound of sirens all the time.

In her dream, she kept running, and a large group of men chased after her, and she couldn't get rid of it no matter how she ran.

Her heels stumbled under her feet, and their heels were always stuck in cracks in the pavement.

Strange, where did the practical pair of shoes you bought this morning go?

She needed those shoes now, but she couldn't find them anywhere.

She saw Liu Zhan, her father, and the men who had left their mark on her life, and they were chasing and shouting, and she continued to flee.

She walked through a cornfield, like Chamillia, and saw ripe corn pass by. She thought she had finally escaped, but she was blocked by a river in front of her.

She looked around, there was not a single bridge over the wide river, and the footsteps and shouts behind her were approaching.

It took a while for Mary to realize that the sirens in her dream were real, even at the speakeasy, the shrill sirens, and the police cars speeding through the streets outside.

Mary was startled, opened her eyes, and came to her senses.

There was a sudden commotion outside the curtains, first a quick knock on the door, then someone calling for the city in the distance, and then heavy footsteps from the street to the outside of the curtains, followed by the sound of chairs crashing to the ground.

Mary peeked out from behind the curtain and opened her mouth wide in horror when a man in uniform stood outside.

Then, the man turned around.

"Liu Zhan!"

Mary lifted the curtain and ran forward, she was just about to open her arms to embrace Liu Zhan, when she suddenly saw his face and was stunned.

Liu Zhan's face was bruised, bruised, stabbed, one was swollen from one eye, and one was a mutilated ear that seemed to be ready to fall at any moment.

Although it was thrilling, Liu Zhan finally escaped.

He got up from the president's side and ran as hard as he could, but he soon had to slow down, and it was too easy to run suspiciously. Sirens sounded on the streets, police cars full of police sped past one after another, and Liu Zhan walked briskly along the side of the road.

He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the police car would not stop next to him, and that they would not wonder why he was walking in the opposite direction of the presidential palace in uniform.

Liu Zhan chose small roads and muddy alleys as much as possible, and ran as soon as he avoided the sight of police cars. He felt like walking was harder than running, and his heart was hurting

His chest was pounding, and his breathing became choppy. When he finally slammed the steps into the cloud bar, he was drenched in sweat from the pain and exhaustion.

"You stayed. Liu Zhan said breathlessly, opening his only eye, looking at Mary with a look of exhaustion and awe.

"Of course I'll stay, fool. I'm glad I stayed, and I saw what you looked like. Mary held back the tears that were about to be shed, and pretended to be brave.

"Thank you. Liu Zhan whispered.

Mary's fingers lightly pressed against his swollen lips, and he bit his own as she was tortured. "Don't speak. This time, you do as I say. Mary turned to Joseph and said, "Please, help us." ”

Joseph was about to speak, when suddenly there was a cry of pain, and then a figure appeared in front of them. They looked in the direction of the sound, and it was Bella, who was holding an old Makarov pistol from the Soviet era, and the muzzle was pointed at Liu Zhan.

Less than twenty meters away from the Cloud Bar, the young guard woke up as suddenly as Mary. The unconscious guard awoke from the silence of the world, and the Niu Jing beside him was broken by a deafening scream, which was Wren's voice.

Hearing the movement of the guards behind him, Wren's screams turned into orders. His screams were no longer for the sake of physical and emotional pain, and he screamed and kept giving orders to the guards to go to the doctor, to tell Scott to come to the presidential palace immediately, to put the army on alert, and to put the young guard on the spot.

The reasons for the death of the guard can be listed in a long list, knocking over the teacup, falling unconscious, the most heinous of them, he actually saw the misery of his master; Wren didn't list the crimes of the guards one by one, he didn't need to. Wren was now full of rage, and he only wanted revenge to vent his anger, and the young guard was right in front of him.

No, the guard wasn't in Wren's eyes, Wren was still facing away from the guard right now.

"I'm going to get someone to help, sir. The guard groaned and stumbled out of the room, hoping to pull a few more unlucky ones, and by the way, find a pair of pants to put on.

"Mother! Joseph shouted worriedly.

"Let this man go, he's only going to get us in trouble! Bella said angrily, her whole body trembling, and the gun in her hand was always aimed at Liu Zhan.

Joseph walked slowly in front of Liu Zhan and stood between his mother's muzzle and Liu Zhan. "No, Mother. Joseph said, "We Arians should support him, but is Thiago so afraid that we don't even dare to support him?"

"We shouldn't have done anything for him! They came to Illian, not for us, these foreigners, but for themselves!"

"I'll go right away. Liu Zhan pressed the broken rib with his hand and gasped.

Joseph still stood in front of Liu Zhan, "Mother, please call a doctor. "Someone might have seen him come in!" Bella snapped.

"So, the later the doctor comes, the more dangerous we are. Joseph's tone was sneering and calm, not at all like a man of his age.

He looked directly at his mother through his dark glasses, "Please, call immediately." ”

From this moment on, there was a subtle change in the status between mother and son.
