Huo Yao turned around and walked back calmly.
She took out her phone from her bag. Unsurprisingly, there was no signal on it.
Very good, all the arrangements were targeted at her.
Huo Yao pursed her lips but did not panic at all. Her dress was wet and sticky. She reached for the tissue beside her and wiped it nonchalantly.

In contrast to the quietness in the room, there was a commotion downstairs.
Murray was talking to Min Yu about weapons in the side hall when a bullet pierced through the floor-to-ceiling window and headed straight for Min Yu's vitals.
It happened so suddenly that Murray immediately sensed danger approaching. His face changed instantly and he pushed Min Yu away without hesitation.
"Watch out!"
The bullet entered Murray's body the moment he pushed Min Yu away. He instantly vomited a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
Min Yu flipped over to avoid being exposed. He frowned and raised his head to look in the direction of the bullet.
There was a tiny bullet hole in the glass window. It seemed to be coming from the mountain behind the manor.
From a sniper's angle, he would have been killed instantly if he had not dodged in time.
Moreover, it was obvious that the bullet was aimed at him.
Min Yu quickly veered his eyes to Murray, who had taken the bullet for him. A strange look flashed across his eyes.
At this moment, the door to the side hall was quickly pushed open, and five or six of the Count's secret guards rushed in. When they saw Murray lying on the ground, everyone's expression changed.
"Hurry up and call the doctor. The Earl is seriously injured..."
One of the secret guards did not dare to move Murray. He carefully pressed something against his bleeding wound and was very skilled at stopping the bleeding.
The other secret guards went to check for the source of danger and activated the alarm. They ordered their men to catch the mastermind.
Although Murray was shot, he did not faint. He swallowed the blood that was gushing up his throat and forced himself to look in Min Yu's direction. "Young Master Min, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Thank you for your help," said Min Yu calmly.
Murray heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. "It's good that you're fine. Otherwise, I would be a sinner."
If something were to happen to the boss of the Weapons Bureau in the Earl's Mansion, he would not be able to explain himself, and it might even bring about a series of repercussions.
Soon, a few doctors rushed in and began to examine Murray's wounds in an orderly manner.
In less than a minute, a group of people carried the Earl, who had fainted, to the room and prepared for surgery to remove the bullet.

When Zhuo Yun, who was outside, heard the alarm going off, his expression instantly changed. Not only him, but the guests who had come to attend the banquet were also startled by the sound.
The entire banquet hall was thrown into chaos.
Zhuo Yun ignored them and pressed the mini communication device on his collar to contact Min Yu. Then, he rushed to the side hall as fast as he could.
He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his master standing there unscathed. "Yu, what happened?"
Zhuo Yun asked hurriedly.
Min Yu placed his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Someone ambushed me, and Murray took the bullet for me."
Zhuo Yun also noticed the bullet hole in the floor-to-ceiling window nearby. He walked over to check it, and when he turned back, he looked more solemn. "From the traces, this sniper rifle is very powerful. It seems like the mastermind wanted to kill the target in one shot."
