Yeh Luo leaned against Li Mengmeng's car, planning to wait for Gu Yueru for more than two hours.
However, just as he laid down on the car seat, Yeh Luo's phone rang.
It was Qin Bingying's number.
"Hello, cousin," Yeh Luo answered with a laugh. It had been a while since they last met and Yeh Luo missed this girl.
Hearing Yeh Luo's words, Qin Bingying said, "Brat, what are you doing now?"
"Me? I'm thinking of Yingying. "Yeh Luo chuckled.
"I'm going to your place. By the way, I have something to tell you, "Qin Bingying said seriously, clearly not wanting to talk nonsense with Yeh Luo.
"What is it?" Yeh Luo asked.
"When are you sending Liu Piaoxue back? The company has been established and is officially operating. Isn't Liu Piaoxue with you? Send her back, "Qin Bingying complained over the phone.
Yeh Luo wanted to send her back too.
But wasn't the situation tight for the past few days?
After a pause, Yeh Luo replied, "I'll have to wait a few days. Things are a little tight in Jiang District now. We'll talk about it after the New Year."
"You mean you won't be home this New Year?" Qin Bingying asked.
"Yeah, I probably won't be going back."
"Don't you miss your precious egg?" Qin Bingying snorted.
The precious egg she was referring to was naturally Li Bingwei.
Yeh Luo said, "I do, but I can't go back even if I want to. So, cousin, you have to take good care of my wife. I'll reward you well when we get back."
"Get lost. Alright, I'm done talking to you. I can't get to the point. Take care of yourself in Jiang District, okay?"
"Yes, I understand."
"Okay, bye."
Qin Bingying hung up. Yeh Luo shrugged helplessly.
He turned on the car music and enjoyed it for a while.
Before he knew it, Yeh Luo fell asleep.
After a long sleep, Yeh Luo was woken up by a loud noise.
Yeh Luo rubbed his eyes and sat up in shock.
Was … was it on fire?
The bar next to him was ablaze. The fire was spreading rapidly from the bottom to the top.
Screams could be heard coming from the bar. Groups of people were running out of the bar like madmen. The scene was extremely chaotic.
"What's going on? How did it catch on fire? "Yeh Luo opened the car door and got out.
At this time, the roadside was also a boiling cauldron of voices.
More and more people gathered nearby to watch.
Along the way, there were even cries for help.
The fire in the bar spread very quickly, starting from the first floor. Judging from the speed at which it spread, it would only take ten minutes for it to reach the top floor.
"How did this bar catch fire all of a sudden? What's going on? "On the roadside, someone shouted in horror.
"Who knows, it suddenly started burning."
"There are at least a few hundred people here, right? Did you call the police? "
"Someone has already called the police. The police will arrive in ten minutes at the earliest."
"Ten minutes? So long? When the police arrived, the fire would probably reach the upper floors. Even if the police came, they wouldn't be able to put out such a big fire. "
One by one, the passers-by began to discuss.
However, Yeh Luo stood rooted to the ground.
Gu Yueru and her friends were currently inside.
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep!
Just then, the phone in Yeh Luo's pocket rang again. It was an eighteen-digit number from overseas.
It was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello!" Yeh Luo answered.
There was a long silence on the other end of the line.
Then, a woman's sobbing voice came through the phone. "Falcon … Falcon."
"Ivy, why did you call me?" Yeh Luo recognized the voice on the other end of the line. This woman was Ivy from the Tianqi Alliance.
Ivy was currently standing in the global radar control room of the headquarters. In front of her was the image of the Kolo Bar burning fiercely. Ivy's face was filled with panic. Tears streamed down her pale cheeks incessantly.
"Ivy, don't just f * cking cry. Say something," Yeh Luo said angrily when he noticed that the phone had gone silent.
After a moment's hesitation, Ivy's sobbing voice came through the phone again. "Falcon, the Kolo Bar is on fire. My sister is inside. I beg you, please go and save her, okay?"
"What did you say?" Yeh Luo roared in shock. "Your sister is in the Kolo Bar?"
"Yes," Ivy replied.
"F * ck, what's her name?" Yeh Luo asked anxiously.
"Her name is Li Mengmeng," Ivy said in tears.
What? Li Mengmeng?
Gu Yueru's best friend?
Yeh Luo was stunned. At this moment, Ivy cried again, "Falcon, I beg you. She's my only sister. I can't do anything now. Please save her."
Yeh Luo laughed inwardly when he heard Ivy's words.
Taking a deep breath, Yeh Luo said, "Ivy, don't worry. I'll bring your sister out alive even if I have to risk my life. Now, tell me where they are. "
"They're on the 18th floor, Room 202. Falcon, you have to hurry. The building's power supply is about to go down. Once the internal circuits are destroyed, I'll be forced to go offline. I'll give you directions, "Ivy said anxiously.
"You're using the Tianqi Alliance's radar without permission. That's a crime," Yeh Luo said.
"I don't care anymore. Falcon, hurry."
"Alright."
Yeh Luo then rushed into the Kolo Bar with his phone in hand.
"Hey, young man, are you f * cking crazy? Come back here, "a man by the roadside shouted when he saw Yeh Luo rush in.
Yeh Luo ignored him and rushed straight into the sea of flames.
Most of the buildings on the first floor were already on fire. The moment Yeh Luo entered, it was as if he had entered an oven. The smoke made him cough violently.
Yeh Luo did not have any time to hesitate. He covered his mouth and nose, endured the pain from the fire, and ran up the stairs.
Yeh Luo dashed through the sea of flames. Everywhere he passed, he saw many people trapped in the flames, struggling. There were also many people who were completely engulfed in flames, screaming in agony.
Yeh Luo's heart was on the verge of breaking down when he saw the scene before him.
The agonized cries of these people rang in Yeh Luo's ears, causing his body to tremble violently.
At this moment, Yeh Luo could not help them.
"Damn it, if I find out who the arsonist is, I'll let him experience what it's like to be burned alive." Yeh Luo clenched his fists tightly.
"I'm sorry, I can't save you." Yeh Luo looked at the people struggling in the flames and his heart ached.
Just then, a voice rang in Yeh Luo's ear.
"Momo, run, run out of here. Don't worry about me," a woman cried.
Then, it was a little girl's cry. "No, Momo, I don't want to run away alone. I want to save you."
Yeh Luo turned around and saw a young woman being pinned down by a collapsed door in the living room. A little girl around eight years old was trying to lift the door with all her might, trying to free her mother.
However, the little girl's tiny body was not strong enough to lift the heavy door. She looked hopelessly at her mother who was pinned down below and cried bitterly.
"Momo, don't worry about me, please," the young woman screamed at the top of her lungs.
The little girl ignored her and continued to lift the door with all her might. She allowed the fire to roast her, showing no signs of leaving.
Boom!
Just then, Yeh Luo raised his leg and kicked the door out of the way.
Yeh Luo picked up the little girl from the ground and reached out to pull the young woman up. He shouted, "Jump through the window."
Before the young woman could react, Yeh Luo lifted the young woman with one hand and carried the little girl with the other. He then leaped through the glass window and jumped down from the tenth floor.
"Falcon, you don't have much time," Ivy shouted over the phone.
Yeh Luo ignored her and brought the young woman and the little girl down from the tenth floor.
Just as they were about to hit the ground, Yeh Luo used all his strength to push the young woman and the little girl back. When the force of the impact cancelled each other out, the young woman and the little girl only felt a slight collision. However, Yeh Luo felt as if he had made intimate contact with the ground.
Yeh Luo's body shook.
In the next moment, time seemed to have stopped.
Yeh Luo's ears suddenly fell silent.
He spat out a mouthful of blood and tried to get up from the ground several times. Every time, he would fall to the ground.
Yeh Luo struggled to open his hazy eyes. All he could hear was the sound in his ears getting softer and softer.
"Uncle, uncle, wake up." The little girl shook him frantically.
The young woman kept squeezing Yeh Luo's chest.
Yeh Luo opened his eyes but realized that they were heavy.
"Falcon," Ivy shouted over the phone.
Yeh Luo fell silent. His mouth was agape and his eyes were hazy. On any other day, the tenth floor would have been nothing to Yeh Luo. However, this time, he had used all his strength on the young woman and the little girl.
