Chapter 35: Who is the Praying Mantis and Who is the Cicada?
"Let's go!"
Fang Yi had long been accustomed to such emergencies, and when he saw Yue Pengfei stepping forward to meet the enemy, he immediately pulled Tang Renjie and Tang Man and ran out.
He didn't leave his brother, but left at this time in order to lighten the burden on Yue Pengfei.
Let's not talk about whether Fang Yi has the power to protect himself...... Maybe he has, but what about Tang Renjie's father and daughter? The two of them were obviously powerless people, and Fang Yi knew that Tang Benxiu's visit this time was not only aimed at him, but also mostly at Tang Renjie.
Fang Yi had to take them away as the best plan. Moreover, if he and Tang Renjie left as the target, Tang Benxiu's heart would be chaotic, which would be of some help to Yue Pengfei.
Tang Man was a young girl, she had never seen this kind of scene, and she was scared silly at the moment. Tang Renjie is okay, after all, he is a mayor, and although he is not shocked, when he runs with Fang Yi, he constantly contacts his subordinates.
Fang Yi grabbed Tang Man's little hand and rushed quickly, while turning around and saying, "Mayor, your security system is too poor, normal for this kind of emergency, they should be there soon, right?"
Tang Renjie's face has a bitter color. Fang Yi asked him, who did he ask? He didn't know why this was happening, normally speaking, when he pressed the emergency notice, the personnel should be there soon.
Although Fang Yi and Yue Pengfei made a big fuss in the Mayor Building just now and stunned a lot of personnel, but in the Mayor Building, there is always no shortage of personnel.
The corridors of the mayor's building are all connected, and they are all in the state of conjoined buildings, and it is only within two or three minutes that the security personnel have to rush over.
Looking at Tang Renjie's bitter look, Fang Yi had no choice but to give up, after all, it was better to ask for others than for himself.
He gave Tang Man a princess hug, and then quickly ran to the elevator door.
As soon as he arrived at the elevator door, before Fang Yi could smile, his face was dark. It turns out that the mayor's building is out of power?
What kind of international joke is this? The office buildings where high-ranking officials and dignitaries are located have several backup power generators, and this is absolutely impossible for this to happen.
And...... Take a closer look, is it just an elevator power outage?
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
Fang Yi looked at the brightly lit fire escape and pondered for a moment.
He rolled his eyes quickly, then stopped Tang Renjie, who wanted to rush into the passage, and said, "Don't you think, this is someone tempting us?"
Tang Renjie was a smart person after all, he immediately reacted, took five or six steps back, returned to Fang Yi's side, and said with a sinking face: "Yes, someone is playing the game of praying mantis catching cicadas!"
It's something obvious. The elevator was blacked out, no one was backing up, and only the fire escape was brightly lit.
What would a normal person do in such a situation? Yes, take the fire escape to escape.
Fang Yi was not a fool, after he walked out of the office, he found that there was weirdness and danger everywhere.
If it was a normal day, he would have taken the fire escape without even thinking about it. But because when he first came out, he kept an extra eye on it, and this bureau looked very obvious.
Think about it with rebellious thinking, and everything will be clear.
Tang Renjie took a deep breath, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and said, "If we want to go out, we can only take the stairs, but ...... We don't even know what the dangers are inside. ”
He was scared. But you can't blame him, it's human nature.
A wise person is more afraid of death because he feels more despair from which there is no way out. In addition to this, smart people can also calculate their own death...... Just like now.
To paraphrase a chess term, they are "checked" to death.
The elevator can't be used, the fire escape can't be walked, and the way back can't be went, do they want to jump off the building?
Just kidding! They can't even jump off the building, because the glass of the high-rise buildings is specially treated, and the movies that come out of the windows are all to deceive children.
Yes, they were trapped to death.
Tang Renjie felt extremely frightened. He still has a lot of things to do, a lot of unfulfilled wishes, he has a lot of nostalgia for the world, he can't just die.
His breathing became a little heavier, and sweat soaked his shirt.
Fang Yi's eyes drooped slightly. He thought silently as he looked at his surroundings.
After a long time, he looked at Tang Renjie's terrifying appearance, and said with a smile: "Are you afraid?"
"I ......," Tang Renjie swallowed back when he said it. It is really embarrassing for a mayor to show such a gaffe in front of the people.
Fang Yi seemed to see through Tang Renjie, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It's okay, the officials and the people are flesh and blood, and no one's body is fireproof and bulletproof, and I'm afraid of it." ”
Tang Renjie smiled bitterly and shook his head. Yes, this is what I said, Fang Yi is words are not rough, everyone is really afraid, but what is the use of saying this at this time?
The corners of Fang Yi's mouth rose slightly, he put his gaze on Tang Man's face, and said, "What about you, are you also afraid?"
Tang Man nodded, shook his head again, and said, "I'm not afraid if you're there." ”
Fang Yi smiled bitterly. I didn't ask her if I knew it, what kind of broken answer is this?
Tang Renjie also smiled bitterly. I didn't expect that it was another man who made my daughter feel safe instead of myself, and it seems that my father is not an ordinary failure.
Fang Yi shook his head and sighed, and said, "Since everyone is afraid, then that's right, we can still fight." ”
"What do you mean?" Tang Renjie was a little confused. Everyone is scared, how can they fight?
"Yes...... Forget it, you follow me. Fang Yi knew that Tang Renjie had drilled the tip of the horns, so he didn't debate with him in detail.
Fang Yi didn't look down on Tang Renjie or despise him for being so unsightly of a big scene, after all, he had fallen into an assassination storm for a while, and his nervous tension was already on the verge of collapse, and now he was stabbed by an emergency, causing him to be afraid of wolves and thieves.
It's just that now is a matter of life and death, and Fang Yi doesn't want to waste his lips. Since Tang Renjie is useless for the time being, let him be the leader of everything.
Fang Yi didn't pay any more attention to Tang Renjie's questioning, but grabbed Tang Man's hand tightly and came to the elevator door.
He nodded to Tang Man, signaling to stay away from him first, and then with enough internal qi, he put his hands in the middle of the elevator door and pulled hard to both sides.
In the corridor, there was the roar of Fang Yi's exhaustion, and the creaking of the elevator door as it was opened.
When the elevator door was forcibly opened, Fang Yi shook his hand, took a long breath, and said, "The geese have left traces, I don't believe that there are no clues at all." ”
After speaking, he squatted down slightly, took out his mobile phone, turned on the LED light, and shone inside.
Inside, there's something!
It's not, it's people!
Due to the power outage of the elevator, the elevator compartment was only stuck in half, and it did not fully reach the floor where Fang Yi was. As a result, they can only see through narrow slits.
Perhaps it was luck, this layer of slit just happened to give Fang Yi and them the most crucial thing - the dead body.
I can't see the whole body, but I can see half of my face. The corpse could not tell the time of death, but judging by his blackened face, he had died of poisoning.
Tang Renjie saw half of the face of the dead corpse and recognized it as an old follower who had followed him for almost ten years.
Seeing the terrifying death of his most powerful and affectionate subordinate, he sat weakly on the ground and talked to himself, but his voice was too small to know what he was saying.
Fang Yi glanced at Tang Renjie's collapsed appearance, shook his head, and then the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and said, "I guessed who it is...... It seems that the public and private accounts have to be calculated together. ”
Tang Renjie slowly raised his head and said, "Who is it?"
Fang Yi got up and grabbed Tang Man's hand, and said coldly, "Follow me, don't you know?"
After saying that, he pushed open the fire door without looking back and walked inside.
Tang Renjie was shocked and said, "Do you want to die?"
"Are you going to die here?"
Fang Yi paused, turned his head slightly, and said: "My brother can only fight with Tang Benxiu, now we can only rely on ourselves, if you continue to sit here and wait stupidly, you will be completely passive, what is the difference between this and sitting still?"
Tang Renjie's lips moved, but he didn't speak after all. As Fang Yi said, in this isolated and helpless situation, sitting dry is no different from waiting for death.
He sighed slowly, looked at Tang Man, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said, "Manman...... Maybe I didn't do my father's duty, but I can't watch you take risks. ”
Fang Yi rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I know what you want to do, there's no point in exploring the way...... Let's go together, isn't it time to sacrifice for women, have you watched too many movies?"
"You don't need to explore the way?" Tang Renjie's old face flushed. I really didn't expect my thoughts to be seen by Fang Yi, but I thought again, it's not wrong to do this, why do you want to spit on me?
Fang Yi said: "Everyone has already set up a posture and waited for us, there is no point in doing this at all, didn't I ask you if you were scared before? ”
Tang Renjie woke up from a dream and said, "You mean that you want us to take advantage of the enemy's underestimating mentality, let us rush over together, maybe we can wait for the opportunity to fight back?"
"That's half right. ”
Fang Yi pushed open the door and walked in, Tang Renjie followed closely.
When he went down the sixth floor, it was still calm, and Tang Renjie's nervous mood relaxed a little.
He looked at Fang Yi's back and said, "You said that I was half right, what was wrong with that half?"
"It's the yellow finch that's wrong. When Fang Yi walked to the 5th floor, he answered Tang Renjie's words.
He paused, turned around, and said: "The yellow finches on both sides are fighting in your office, that is, none of us have yellow finches, and what we have to fight for is who is the praying mantis and who is the cicada." ”
Tang Renjie had a feeling of sudden realization, but at the same time, he felt that his brain was dizzy, and he fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.
Tang Man was always his daughter, blood was thicker than water, and when she saw her father fall to the ground, she couldn't help but pounce. But as soon as she was about to move, she fainted.
Fang Yi didn't have the slightest fear on his face, he smiled instead, turned around to look at the black shadow on the wall on the fourth floor, and said, "I'm right about analyzing the situation, right?" Mr. Cicada......
