The smell of gunpowder thickened in the air, and the sound of bullets and cannons became more intense. Rushing out of the alley, the four ran into about 10 civilians who were running for their lives. They screamed and ran toward them, and it made the four's eyes turn even colder.
"This way, follow me!" The alley was like a maze, and V8 was like the maze's owner, always able to find the right exit in the shortest time possible.
"Someone's coming!" In the dark, Ye Chien heard several panicked footsteps coming from behind them. Someone had chosen the same escape route as them!
Up ahead, another squad of ten ran past the alley. V8 covered the mouth of a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl tightly, stopping her screams in her throat. All that could be heard was her muffled moans.
Next to K7 was a middle-aged couple carrying a child, and behind them was an old man in his sixties.
This was a family of five. They had escaped from the center of the war and were planning to run to the child's aunt's home.
"I'll let go now. You, don't make a sound. If you make a sound, your parents and grandfather will be shot by the people outside. Do you understand? "V8 used the local language to communicate with the girl." On the count of one, two, three, let go. "
The girl, whose eyes widened from fear, nodded in a panic to show that she understood.
V8 let go, and she covered her mouth. In the dark, the girl's bright eyes were filled with heart-wrenching fear.
She was afraid, but she was responsible for scouting the way and protecting the family.
It was only then that Ye Jian noticed that the middle-aged couple, each carrying a child, were unable to walk. Their legs were crippled.
"Can you take us with you? Can you take us with you? The old man in his sixties said with a trembling voice, "If that's not possible, can you take the three children with you? Is that okay? "
The middle-aged couple's eyes were filled with hope. They stared at the four people who had saved them with tears. The appearance of Ye Chien's group made them feel safe.
V8 looked at the two children who were still in his arms. They were about 4 or 5 years old, old, young, and crippled … V8 sighed softly. "I'm sorry, but we can't take you with us. You'd better find a place to hide. I suggest you don't cross the city."
"If people run into you, they might shoot you. For your safety, you'd better find a place to hide."
They had to refuse. Once they agreed, they would be a burden on their journey.
They were not there to represent themselves, and they could not be heroes!
The reason they were taking the risk to enter a neighboring country was because the country's border and the safety of its citizens were at stake!
There was no choice..................
V8's answer extinguished all the hope in the eyes of the old man's family. The girl bit her lower lip and gently bowed to V8 with her palms pressed together to show that she had just saved them.
It was the first time that Ye Jian had met a civilian who asked her for help during a war. She chose to put national affairs first and turned her head away to avoid making eye contact with the girl.
