Chapter 10: Saving the Girl
The echo of the "rumbling" of messy footsteps can be heard throughout the underground apartment, a situation that can only be created when many people enter the underground building.
The dark grid that Kyle opened earlier has been restored to its original state, and if no one knew the location of the dark grid, it would not have been possible to find it.
The footsteps were getting closer, and I couldn't sit back and think about how Kyle had opened the secret door, and I walked over to Millet, picked up his slightly warm left hand, dragged him to the location of the dark grid, and pressed it on the wall, but I couldn't find the way to open the dark door.
Mi Le was dragged by me, opened his eyes, and he struggled to dip his right hand into the blood on the ground, and used all his strength to write the word "H.G" on the ground crookedly.
Millet seems to have a message for someone, but what does the English letter on the earth mean?
Without time to think about the literal meaning, he picked up Miller's placket and asked, "How do you open that secret door?" ”
Miller, who was already breathing faintly, half-opened his godless eyes, and there was an indescribable light in his eyes, and his eyes looked at the corner on the left side of the house, and his eyes blinked, and he finally breathed.
The corner of the wall that was inclined to 45 degrees before Mile died must have something else.
The footsteps outside were getting closer and closer, and without hesitation, I quickly moved to the direction of Miller, and found that there was an iron fence in the corner of the wall that resembled a sewer, which could not be lifted because it was connected to the concrete on the ground.
I only heard the voices outside where it was within reach, and I could faintly hear a human voice reporting: "Sir, there is a new discovery." ”
At this time, two gases entered my body, and it was conceivable that the blonde and Mile emitted white gas.
Some distance away from the corner, he took out the two grenades in his arms.
At this time, a police officer entered the house with a gun in both hands, saw me raise a pistol and pointed it in my direction and ordered: "Don't move, put down your weapon and lie on the ground, or I will shoot!" ”
Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced at the police officer standing at the door, and with an expressionless face, I opened the safety of a grenade and threw it towards the door. At the same time, he stopped the two police officers who were about to enter with both hands and jumped out.
I threw another grenade in the corner, I turned around and hid behind the desk, and two huge explosions were deafening, because this is an underground space, so the sound of the grenade is extremely harsh.
The iron fence in the corner of the wall was blown away, and there was a large hole in the place, and I did not hesitate to jump into the hole that could accommodate a person in and out.
When the searching police officers came in again, I had slid down a hard plastic pipe into the city's underground drainage system.
It is conceivable that if Mile had to use this waterway to escape, but what he didn't expect was that I could be tricked and not die, and after all, I should thank him for giving me a chance to escape.
The waterways under the city are huge, dark and damp, and even if you hold your breath, you can smell a very uncomfortable and strange smell in such a place, and swarms of rats roam the environment as if they were shopping.
Fearing that someone from above would come down to follow me, or that they might come ahead of me to intercept the exit of this waterway, I hurried away, not daring to stop for a moment.
The exit in front of the waterway was shining, and it turned out to be morning.
I took out a pistol and slowly moved towards the exit, hiding in the shadows where the sun could not shine, I kept my posture at a 75-degree angle and looked out, the exit was very windy, the wind carried the saltiness of the sea, it turned out that this place led to the sea, and this place was about 30 meters away from the sea level.
I jumped forward, put my hands in front of me, and fell into the sea with a "plop", splashing three meters high, glittering in the morning light.
Ever since my body was cursed, I have been able to inhale a white energy body that can replenish my physical strength, so despite a shootout last night, I am not physically exhausted, and I don't feel tired at all when I swim now.
I sometimes rise and sometimes dive in the sea, when I can dive, I will not float on the surface of the sea, in my fourth time, when I was panting at sea level, OnePlus police helicopter skimmed from a height of 40 meters overhead, frightened I immediately tried my best to take a breath, dive to the bottom of the water to avoid exploration.
The helicopter circled in the nearby sea for about three minutes and headed southward.
I swam to the stone pillars of a highway bridge, and hid in the shadows of the pillars to ventilate while waiting for an opportunity to leave.
The helicopter reconnoitred back and forth five or six times before flying back to the center of the city.
After waiting for nearly 20 minutes or so, I was sure that there was no danger, and then I swam to the shore and landed.
Looking at the sun, it should be around nine in the morning, and now I don't have to go too far to be discovered by the patrol police, and there is a small white yacht moored not far away, and my heart is moving, and I run towards the yacht.
Jumped on the deck of the yacht, came to the door of the cabin, smashed the glass with his fist, and dived in, fortunately there was no one nearby at this time, otherwise it would have attracted the police.
I think this yacht is generally owned by small capitalists, and maybe when you go to sea, it is still possible to have some clothes on hand.
I followed the built-in ladder to the bedroom, which was neatly furnished, and a wardrobe was placed on the right side of the bed, and I rummaged through the wardrobe, mostly women's clothes, and finally I found a floral shirt and a large striped trouser at the bottom of the cabinet.
I didn't have too much time to change into new clothes, and I found that there was a pair of sunglasses on the bedside table, and I took them with me by the way, and I looked like a tourist on vacation.
At this time, it was as if I heard a faint sound of breathing, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, because I had been trained since I was a child, so I could feel the subtle sounds in the cabin, which is a secret room.
Right under this bed, I must have a man wheezing, his breathing rate seemed to be struggling, and after a moment's hesitation, I decided to open it to take a look.
Removing Simmons from the bed, revealing a bed board that could be turned over, the sound of breathing became clearer.
When the bed board was lifted, the bed compartment inside was tied with a naked woman with coffee-colored hair, this woman looked like she was about 17 years old, her mouth was sealed with duct tape, her hands and feet were tied tightly, and her legs were bent in the dark compartment with half of her body, which showed that she had suffered a lot of crimes, and at this time her blue eyes gave a begging look, which meant to ask me to rescue her.
More is better than less, not to mention that I can't protect myself now, and I shouldn't make extraneous troubles, I must inform the police if I save him, so can I still run?
Ignoring her eyes for help, he covered the bed from the ground up, and everything returned to its original state.
Just when I was about to leave, I couldn't help but think of Anne's words before her death, "My principle is not to see death without saving", and I never hesitated.
Standing beside the bed, I silently thought, from now on I will still live as a cold-blooded killer, and still live as an ordinary person? From now on, will I still take someone's life as an executioner, or will I live as a person who can save lives?
Maybe I can't find an exact answer now, maybe I will understand one day in the future
However, I have now made a new choice, and I choose to free her.
When her pink body was revealed again, I untied her sealing tape, untied the rope she was bound up, and reached out to pull her out, she had been tied up for too long, her body was very weak, and she fell softly in my arms, feeling tears gently dripping on my shoulders, without a trace of ** taste, although I am also in a complicated mood now, but, this is the first time I have saved someone I don't know.
After covering the bed anew, I laid her flat on the bed, took out her clothes from the cabinet and put them on her, and asked, "Are you better?" ”
Her tears kept flowing, she looked weak, and her thin face only had a little bit of blood, and her lips moved slightly: "Thank you." ”
I was a little at a loss, but in order to get out of this place quickly, I calmly asked, "Can I dress myself?" ”
She shook her head and pleaded, "Will you take me out of here?" ”
I thought in my heart that it seemed that I had to do this, so I found a long green skirt and put it on from the bottom, helped her upper body to put on her inner shirt, and put on a translucent silk shirt on the outside, and found that her pale face was a little reddish after putting it on, and helped her to lean on my back, only to hear her whisper in my ear: "I haven't worn panties yet." ”
This time I knew why she was blushing, and now it was my turn to blush, and there was indeed a pair of panties on the bed, after all, I was not good at wearing them.
I really want to ask her if she doesn't care about her life.
I explained, "Anyway, there's a skirt to cover it up, so it's okay not to wear it." ”
But she still insisted: "You have to wear it." ”
I asked, "If you don't wear it, you won't go out, will you?" Recognition of dying here? ”
She didn't answer my question, but reiterated, "Wear it." ”
I couldn't argue with her about this little thing, so I picked up the white panties and carefully lifted them up along her slender legs.
There was only a ladder from the bedroom to the control room, and I was afraid that it would not be stable enough to carry her, so I tied her to my back with the rope I had just tied her.
The exit was just enough for the two of them to get out, unloaded the rope and threw it back into the bedroom, covering the lid that led to the lower level, and I carried her out of the yacht.
After a little trotting, I ran and asked, "Are you okay?" Can I move? ”
Her voice was faint and she replied, "Please call the police." ”
Maybe she's been hungry for days, so she's been very weak now.
Calculating the location, after a while of running, I was very close to the house that Lake rented, no one on the road noticed what was special about me and a girl on my back, I found a phone booth on the side of the road, put her in the kiosk, dialed the toll-free emergency number - 911, and a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, here is the emergency center, what is the need?" ”
I replied, "This is the phone booth on 14th Street of Esplanade, and there is a girl in a green dress who is sick and in urgent need of help. ”
The other person replied, "Okay, the nearest patrol officer will arrive in five minutes." ”
I put down the phone and said to her, "Okay, someone will help you in a while, I have to go first." ”
She kept her eyes closed and reluctantly broke away and said softly, "Before leaving, can you ask me to see what you look like?" ”
In the process of saving her, I always wore sunglasses, I hesitated a little again, I took off my sunglasses, and said, "Okay, I've seen it, you must survive, bye-bye." ”
When I just left the phone booth 50 meters, a patrol motorbike was parked next to the booth, it seemed that the patrol was very anxious, I was relieved at this time, although I helped a stranger but the mood was still chaotic.
Walking a few streets, I came to the apartment where Lake used to be, and now it must have been empty.
Since Lake can call me back, he must have his purpose, and he can't care so much at this time, if he doesn't enter the tiger's den, he will get a tiger?
The door was unlocked, and as soon as I entered, Ryker's voice rang out, "As I expected, you can escape, but the only way out of my basement is the passage that connects to the underground drain." ”
The equipment in the room has long been removed, and only some ordinary furniture remains.
The voice came from an automatic player that had been recorded a long time ago, and I was horrified to hear these words of Lake, this person's IQ and thinking ability must not be beyond the reach of ordinary people, Lake's voice continued: "Now start the countdown for 1 minute, I will tell Alice's whereabouts in 30 seconds, when the countdown is over, this room will explode, you have to listen carefully." ”
The dozens of seconds of waiting passed quickly, and Lake's method of torturing people's minds and minds was really close to collapse.
Listening to Lake's voice, he said very happily: "Alice was taken away by the 'cowboy', but Alice was robbed by the people of the Holy Cross, breaking our original plan, the 'cowboy' had no choice at that time, he could only choose to give up, the latest news from Alice is that she may be on a cruise ship around the world, the name is ' Luxury Princess', the tenth in the world in terms of luxury, she has been brought to it, by the way, the cruise ship stays in Atlantic City for two days, and will set sail again at eight o'clock this evening, the destination is London, England, I'm afraid you won't die, and there are about 8 seconds, there is a chance to see you again, if you can see you again, hahaha"
A huge explosion rang out in the third-floor apartment.
