Chapter 494: After Dark

After spending an afternoon in the mall, the gangsters wandering around the mall finally disappeared. Maybe it's because I'm impatient, and I can't find any trace of us after looking for so long.

But of course I know they can't just leave, five million, of course they can't just give up.

I think the outside of the mall must be surrounded by their people now, right? Just wait for us to go out and throw ourselves into the net.

Staying in this large department store, we didn't really sit idle and do nothing.

We started with a big meal at McDonald's.

Don't laugh, this is to ensure physical strength, running for your life is a tiring job.

Then we changed our outfits, and even though they now recognize our faces, I think they must have come to our school to inquire about us, right? But a change of clothes is still necessary, and if it is exactly the same as the original outfit, it will be too conspicuous, and if they do, they may have to stare at us for a while before they can be sure that it is us.

It's a pity that the two of us don't know how to put on makeup at all, otherwise we would still have to work so hard?

Finally, we went to the mall again and bought two watermelon knives......

We each wrapped the watermelon knife in our coats and held it in our hands so that no one would pay too much attention to us. Otherwise, two men, one carrying a watermelon knife, wandered around the mall, and people thought we were going to rob it......

Everything was ready and we wandered around the mall for a while.

At this time, it was already half past nine o'clock at night, and the closing time of this large shopping mall was relatively early, and the mall was locked at 10 o'clock in the evening.

There were quite a few customers who hurriedly came out of the various restaurants and left, and some staff members seemed to be ready to leave work.

We're still hanging out here.

At this time, a female voice shouted to us from behind: "Both! ”

I stopped, turned my head slowly, and smiled, "You're calling us?" Is there something wrong? ”

The one who called us was a woman in a black and white uniform, who looked very smart, and was supposed to be a staff member here. "I'm sorry two, but the mall here will close after 10 o'clock." The woman smiled politely at us.

I smiled politely and said, "Okay, we got it." Really embarrassed because we were coming to this place for the first time. ”

"It's okay." The female staff smiled, didn't seem to suspect us, and turned back to do her own aftermath work.

Storm Handle Qing took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, it was 9:49, and the time was almost up.

I looked at him for a moment, then nodded in quick succession.

We walked briskly, pretending to be in a hurry to leave the mall, but when no one was looking, we both turned and slipped into the public toilet next to us, opened the door of a cubicle, and hid inside.

There is a window inside the toilet so that you can see the outside of the mall when you look out.

I didn't see anything unusual from here, and the streets were still thriving, with people and cars coming and going. It's just that I know that in those dark corners, those ruffians must be hiding there and waiting for us.

"What time is it?" I asked in a low voice.

Storm Handle Qing glanced at the time again, and then said lightly: "9:55." ”

We continue to wait here quietly, waiting for the mall to be completely cleared and closed.

However, at this time, the door of the men's toilet was suddenly opened!

I looked out through the crack in the door and saw an old man in an orange uniform, and I knew at a glance that he was in charge of cleaning the toilets. I also expect this to happen, and some malls will ask people to check the toilet again at the end when they are closed.

The old man opened the door to the cubicle next to me and was checking inside. But I quietly pushed the door open and walked out softly behind him. After the old man finished checking, he closed the door, and as soon as he turned around, he saw me behind him, and he was startled. But before I could open his mouth to scream, I covered his mouth and knocked him unconscious with an elbow blow to the back of his neck.

I held the old man, who had softened, and dragged the fainted old man into the cubicle and closed the door. At the end, I clapped my hands and whispered, "Uncle, don't blame me, you can sleep here all night." ”

Then I dodged and hid in the cubicle with Tyrant.

After a few more minutes of waiting, the mall turned off the lights and power, and the entire shopping mall was plunged into darkness. I still didn't come out, and we waited patiently for more than three hours in this smelly toilet.

It was a long three hours, but we didn't say a word, we didn't say a word of communication. Feel the cool breeze blowing in from the window and smell the faint smell of mothballs in the toilet. I waited until the wee hours of the morning before I gently pushed the door of the cubicle open.

"Whew......" I took a deep breath and said, "It should be about the same, those guys, they should go too, right?" ”

Those ruffians want to crouch outside and wait for us to come out because they think we must be hiding in this mall, and at most until it closes. But when they wait until the mall closes and don't see us, they become suspicious of their original ideas.

- Could they have left here by other means? Otherwise, how could it not have come out until now?

When they have such doubts about themselves, our opportunity comes.

For three hours, I don't believe they could still stand up to wait for us at the door by this time.

"Be careful." Tyranny said in a deep voice.

"Yes." I nodded.

We turned on the flashlight of our mobile phone and followed the faint light to find the location of the safety exit, but the door of the safety exit was locked, and it was one of those big iron locks. Storm Handle Qing silently touched his pocket, took out a thin needle, inserted it into the lock, and stirred it up for a while, only to hear a "click", the lock opened, and Storm Handle Qing gently took off the lock.

I smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to have this kind of skill?" ”

Tyranny said lightly: "When I was a homeless man before, I also hid in the supermarket and often picked this kind of lock. With that, he pushed the door open and walked in first.

Walking down the stairs of the safe passage, it is much easier to open the next door, although they are all locked, but they are the kind of doors that require a key from the outside, but can be opened directly from the inside.
