The downstairs of Jiahao Hotel has long been surrounded by various fire trucks.

Firefighters in orange and red protective suits are constantly spraying water jets at the hotel building with water cannons, and some soldiers wearing protective masks are lining up and ready to storm the building.

The fire was raging in the cafeteria on the second floor of the hotel, and countless flames escaped from the window, and the third floor was no longer spared.

There were many people in the upper echelons of the hotel calling for help at the windows, and almost every window had people waving their arms.

High. The water pressure cannon continued to suppress the flames to prevent the fire from spreading to the higher floors, but the burned area on the third floor continued to expand.

Wang Ziqing looked at this scene and was anxious, and called Wang Zijun's phone over and over again, but he couldn't get through.

"Zijun."

She, like many people anxiously waiting outside the building, shouted loudly into the building, and the heart-rending sound was moving.

……

In the multi-purpose hall on the third floor, more than 100 people were still huddled tightly in the corner.

Near the exits at both ends, the fire was raging, the scorching air and the black smoke made everyone dizzy, many coughed incessantly, and many more cried loudly out of fear.

Luo Ping asked several hotel security guards in a row, and they all said that there was no other exit - in fact, just look at their expressions, if there were other exits, they would not all be like ashes.

He and some young and strong young men searched around the hall, there was really no third exit, and the window near the east side of the hall was two meters high from the ground, and there were burglar-proof windows on the surface, and it was almost impossible to escape from here.

The staff of the auction company was forced back by the fire with a safe, and slowly approached the crowd.

"It's because of them that we lost our chance to escape and killed them!"

I don't know who shouted, and after a brief silence, someone quickly responded.

"Kill them!"

"Kill them!"

The crowd that was cornered was excited, and the guns in Gu Bu's hands rushed towards the staff of the auction company like a tide.

"Stop them, stop them!"

The manager of the auction house kept backing away with a metal safe, hiding behind hired security guards and his colleagues and shouting.

In the face of the crowd rushing over in the dark, twenty security guards hired from the security company were also constantly retreating, they had guns in their hands, but how dare they shoot casually.

The chair flew over, the stool flew over, the security guard stepped back in embarrassment, and finally a young security guard, who was terrified to the extreme, fired a shot at the ceiling.

Bang!

The loud gunfire silenced the hall for a moment, but soon a chair with a missing leg was thrown out, hitting the young security guard who had fired the shot.

With his screams, the crowd that lost control of their emotions rushed frantically.

Twenty security guards were drowned in the sea of people almost instantly.

In order to prevent Liu Qi from getting hurt to them, Luo Ping and Wang Zijun tightly protected them behind them and hid on the outermost side of the crowd.

But even so, Liu Qi was hit by someone, slightly sprained his waist, and could only sit unsteadily.

"Catch him!"

There was another loud roar, and several young men rushed over and surrounded the manager, screaming and kicking him.

The scene was chaotic, except for those who participated in the beating because of emotional out-of-control, some people did not forget those antiques even when they were facing the critical moment of life and death, and wanted to fish in troubled waters and secretly take them for themselves.

One by one, metal safes became the target of scramble, and many people fought for it.

Half an hour ago, these people who were sitting in the venue with a dignified dignity are now like they are in the depths of the primeval forest, and they are like outlaws for antiques worth millions of dollars.

Here, there are no police, no officials, and no rich people, and at this moment, only the most primitive liliang has the final say.

The situation deteriorated further, with someone picking up a shotgun that had been dropped by a security guard. A gunshot rang out, and several of the people who were fighting with him for the safe fell to the ground, and he quickly grabbed the safe and got carried away.

His actions were soon followed, and the remaining two guns were quickly picked up, and several more fell to the ground after the shots rang out.

Blood was pouring all over the place, and the commotion of the crowd was no longer agitated, and people watched as the three men with guns retreated.

The three men had lost their minds and were only one step away from madness, and no one dared to guarantee that their guns would not be pointed at them.

A little girl of seven or eight years old was hit by a scatter bullet in her calf, and the severe pain caused her to cry incessantly, and the red blood kept flowing down her white socks in her legs.

By her side, her mother hugged her tightly, and her mother and daughter hugged her head and cried.

"Bastards, you're all brutes!" The girl's father, seeing his daughter's leg injury, stood up angrily and prepared to rush at the three men. His wife pulled him desperately and dragged him back.

"Don't go, don't go, they'll kill you."

He reluctantly stopped, and the intense anger made him gasp sharply.

There are many, many innocent people who have been hit by stray bullets, and the scene is very miserable.

No one rushed out again.

"Bastard!"

Luo Ping took the jade pendant from Wang Zijun, and after absorbing the wealth inside, he kept helping the injured Zuihou, he found the injured little girl, and used all the remaining wealth to help her stop the blood from the wound, and then stood up angrily.

"Can't go, they have guns in their hands." Wang Zijun hurriedly grabbed him, he knew that Luo Pingyi was bold, and he probably wanted to rush forward, but those people had guns in their hands and lost their minds, so they couldn't get close to them at all.

At this time, the three men each carried a metal safe and surrounded the manager of the auction company who had been beaten into a pig's head.

"Tell me what the password to the safe is." A man kicked him hard.

"Say it or I'll kill you with one shot!" The other viciously put a gun to his head.

Bang!

The rest was more direct, without any nonsense, and shot him directly in the leg.

Blood splattered, and the manager of the auction company screamed, holding the thighs that had been shot, and shrunk into a ball, and his whole body spasmed.

"Otherwise, you'll lose your other leg."

“3…… 5…… 6…… 8…… 9”。

Hearing the password, the two people in front of them were ecstatic, and quickly crouched down to open the lockbox.

Bang!

Zuihou spoke, and instead of being as eager as they were, he shot one of them down, and then burst into a rage, kicking the other and stunning the other.

He carried the three safes together in his hand, and quickly picked up the other two guns on the ground and rushed to the back of the auction table.

The whole process was very short, and before the people hiding in the distance could react, his figure had already disappeared. People looked at the three people lying on the ground and looked at each other.

Luo Ping happened to see a scene that made people's hearts palpitate, and he suddenly remembered that this person was a hotel security guard he had just asked not long ago.

Problematic!

There is no doubt that the security guard is very problematic. Luo Ping almost didn't hesitate and quickly chased after him, and his swift figure made people feel that he disappeared as soon as he saw a flower in front of him.

……

Jiahao Hotel is a five-star foreign-related hotel, and coincides with the National Day Golden Week, almost all rooms have long been sold out, and now the number of guests staying here is very considerable, including many foreign tourists.

After learning that the hotel was on fire, the senior management of Beijing City immediately organized elite soldiers to rescue and mobilized all the fire trucks in the city to fight the fire.

The second floor is no longer secure, and the third floor is about to be lost, and now the most important thing is to stop the fire from continuing to spread, and prevent the fire from threatening the tenants of the dozens of floors of the building.

However, when the leaders of Beijing City, who rushed to the scene to participate in the rescue, learned that a large-scale auction was being held on the third floor, and heard that most of them were social elites, rescuing the people participating in the auction became the top priority.

Soon, heavily armed firefighters formed an improvised assault squad that would risk their lives to rescue people trapped on the third floor by the fire.

With the commander's order, they rushed into the hotel building, and the raging fire burned their protective suits.

……

The backstage was a mess.

Luo Ping rushed backstage and didn't see the security guard, he searched carefully, thinking that the security guard was probably hiding in a corner.

There were three small rooms in the background, and Luo Ping walked towards the small room after looking around.

In order to prevent the security guard from suddenly coming out, he secretly activated the treasure hunting skill.

The doors of the two small rooms in front were half-covered, and after investigation, there was no one inside, Luo Ping had just walked to the door of the third room, and a strong suction suddenly came from the palm of his right hand.

This is it!

Luo Ping quietly clenched the leg of a chair he had just picked up, ready to kick open the door.

Suddenly, a strong palpitation made him feel that danger was coming.

Bang bang bang!

Three gunshots rang out, barely gaping, and the thin wooden door was sieveed by a powerful shotgun.

Luo Ping screamed miserably and fell to the ground.

The door was kicked open from the inside, and the security guard threw away the shotgun that had run out of bullets and walked in front of Luo Ping.

He kicked Luo Ping twice, and when he saw that he didn't react, he squatted down next to him with confidence, entered the password, opened the three safes, and took out a few antiques that the auction company had not yet had time to deliver to customers.

Here, in addition to the two small pieces of ancient jade sold by Luo Ping, there is also a bronze ancient Buddha and a seal.

The bronze ancient Buddha is an ancient artifact of the Han Dynasty, and it is the seventh lot in today's auction, and Zuihou sold for a high price of 33 million. And that seal is said to be the small seal of Emperor Kangxi, and it is also the finale of today's auction, and it was finally auctioned for a high price of nearly 80 million.

I saw the security guard take out an inconspicuous black cloth bag from his pocket, put a few antiques in it, and then quickly stood up and walked towards the first small room.

Behind him, Luo Ping stood up quietly.
