"Did you see that? My life isn't easy, either." Tai Zhiyuan didn't look at the corpse on the ground. A person who couldn't speak wasn't worth paying attention to. He smiled as he spoke to Xu Le. This sentence was obviously directed at Xu Le, who said that people like him didn't know how hard it was to live.
Xu Le tilted his head and didn't say anything. In fact, he hadn't completely recovered from the shock of what happened earlier. Although he was the first to notice the abnormality of the agent, the gunfight in front of him made the originally spacious luxurious private room seem extremely small. The gunshots ended too quickly, so quickly that he didn't even have time to be afraid of stray bullets.
Tai Zhiyuan didn't say anything like thank you for saving his life again. He couldn't use his own life to repay the favor of saving his life, so it was fine as long as they both kept it in mind.
"We should go." The middle-aged leader of the agent saw that the young master of the Tai family was still chatting with Xu Le as if nothing had happened. He couldn't help but frown and urge them again.
At this time, Butler Jin, who had been on the phone all this time, walked over and said calmly, "I've already spoken to the Director of the Special Task Force. You guys stay in this room for the time being and don't go out."
The leader of the agent was slightly stunned, but he immediately understood the meaning of the old butler's words. There was a traitor in his team, and the Tai family no longer trusted them. At least under the current circumstances, they had no choice but to choose not to trust them. He was silent for a moment and decided that this was the only thing he could do at the moment, so he nodded.
Butler Jin looked at Tai Zhiyuan's side profile and said, "The personnel of the security team have entered this area of the stadium and are currently exchanging fire. They should be able to clear this area in three minutes."
Since that phone call, Tai Zhiyuan's security had been transferred from the Special Task Force to the Tai family's own security team. Since the enemy could even infiltrate the Special Task Force and possibly use mechas, then the road leading out of the stadium would definitely be filled with assassins responsible for sniping. At this moment, the members of the Tai family's security team had already started exchanging fire with these people. Since Butler Jin had given them three minutes, he must have been very confident in his subordinates.
Tai Zhiyuan listened quietly and then suddenly said, "Can you find the location of the military mecha in three minutes?"
"No." Butler Jin watched from the corner of his eye as the Special Task Force agents began to make their way to the room beside the private room. He replied softly, "It's precisely because we can't that we need to leave as soon as possible."
After a moment of silence, Tai Zhiyuan shook his head. Looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the stadium below, he said softly, "There are over 30,000 spectators. Even if they were to evacuate urgently, it would still take more than 10 minutes. I'll be out in 3 minutes... if that military mecha had chosen to attack at that time, how many people would have died? I don't want innocent citizens to be my meat shield. "
When Xu Le heard this, a sincere and appreciative smile appeared on his face.
Tai Zhiyuan looked at him and smiled. He calmly sat back down on the sofa and said to Butler Jin calmly, "The enemy must have taken your reaction time into consideration. If we were to leave now, they might be waiting for this moment. If that's the case, why don't we wait? After all, they should be more anxious than us. "
Butler Jin was silent for a long time. Then, he turned around and left. The phone in his hand was connected again. He continuously issued orders in a low voice, asking for support from the family. At this moment, his phone call represented the will of the Tai family. Every order would be carried out effectively. Every message delivered would cause an unquenchable shock within the Federation.
…
…
"You surprised me." Xu Le sat on the other side of the sofa. He held a glass of wine and took big gulps to suppress the anxiety and nervousness in his heart. Other than when his uncle was being hunted down by the Federal Army, he had never experienced such a big scene in his life.
"You don't have to praise me. I know that I'm in a privileged class with a strong sense of morality." Tai Zhiyuan took a sip of wine and said with a self-deprecating smile, "Actually, you surprised me more. Not to mention your reaction earlier … at least you still have the guts to stay here and drink with me. That's really something."
"I don't know if I'll be turned into a hornet's nest once I leave the room. Since that's the case, I might as well stay here with you. I think it's safer here. "Xu Le smiled bitterly and said honestly," Actually, I'm very nervous. "
At this time, the members of the Tai family's security team had completely taken over the work of the agents. The top floor of the stadium had been confirmed to be safe. However, there were still occasional sounds of gunfire coming from outside the VIP room. The people who were slowly leaving the stadium definitely didn't notice these sounds. However, the two young men in the VIP room knew very well that these sounds were the sounds of special guns firing non-stop.
Two minutes had already passed. The Tai family's security team was gradually clearing out the path of retreat. However, no one felt relaxed. According to the reports of those team members, the people on the other side seemed to be a group of well-trained professional soldiers. Then they thought about the military mecha that had been running hot for more than ten minutes and still hadn't found its exact location. Everyone was very nervous.
Xu Le was also the same. Although he had experienced some things before, such as personally witnessing a hair-raising mecha battle in the valley in the suburbs of Hexi state capital, and even having a black gun barrel pointed at his temple several times, he was still very nervous right now. After all, he was just an ordinary young man who had lived a normal life since he was young. This kind of invisible danger was like some kind of chemical fog, making the air in the VIP room seem heavy, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"I'm very sorry to have dragged you into this." Tai Zhiyuan looked at Xu Le quietly, but there was a hint of meaning in his smile. He said with a smile, "Right now, your face seems to be even paler than mine."
"That's because I'm hungry." Xu Le wasn't lying. Earlier, when he used that mysterious power in his body, his stomach instantly felt hungry. He ate a few snacks and drank a few glasses of wine, but his face still didn't have much of a red flush.
However, he didn't know that the sight of him casually eating and drinking on the sofa was in the eyes of Tai Zhiyuan and Butler Jin, a sign that he had a clear mind and was not afraid of external things.
"It seems that important people like you live a very dangerous life," Xu Le shook his head and said, "but... are you really not afraid at all?"
Tai Zhiyuan was silent for a long time. He smiled and raised his left hand that had been resting on the sofa's armrest. That hand, which was as thin as a woman's, trembled slightly in the air. "Of course I'm afraid. Because I'm still young, I'm destined to do many great things in this life. I can't bear to die, so I'm afraid of death. But I can't let others know that I'm afraid. "
He paused for a moment, then said with a smile, "To be honest, I don't have many such incidents in my life. For me, being assassinated is a very strange experience."
"Not even once in the past?" Xu Le asked curiously, as if he wanted to use the conversation to ease the tension in his heart.
"When I was young, I hid my identity and studied in a primary school in the capital. At the time, I was in the same class as Zou Yu." Tai Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly became blank. He recalled, "Then, one day in the sixth grade of primary school, I was preparing to get on the bus when a heavy truck suddenly rushed over from the other end of the street. The truck rushed all the way over. I thought that I was going to die, but unexpectedly, the last tire of the truck suddenly burst. The truck forcibly changed direction about ten meters in front of me and crashed into a large tree."
"It wasn't a traffic accident?"
"Later, the police determined that the nature of the accident was a hit-and-run... The truck crashed into four cars on the street, including our school bus. Just looking at the scene, it did look like a car accident." Tai Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly became cold. "A total of seventeen people died. Only two students from our class died."
"When the truck finally changed direction, it was shot by the security personnel of my family who were hiding across the school with an anti-materiel gun..." Tai Zhiyuan's brows flashed with a trace of gloom. "From that day onwards, I transferred schools. Other than the occasional contact with Zou Yu, I never returned to that school. I also never went to school with the normal people in the Federation again."
"My life has only been in danger once." Tai Zhiyuan's expression calmed down, and he said, "Our family has only one son for seven generations, so we have always been very careful about these things. Today is the second time … The first time, my luck was not bad, so I hope that today's luck is not bad."
Xu Le looked at Tai Zhiyuan's slightly pale and thin face, and his heart suddenly sympathized with the other person. He felt that the other person's life yesterday was not much better than his own life as an orphan and fugitive. Thinking about that night in the H1 area, when the person in front of him who was younger than him fainted and helpless in his arms, his heart surged with the urge to protect the other person.
"Don't worry, you'll be fine today." Xu Le said very seriously.
...
...
"The passage is clear, there is no crowd, we can pass through."
In the communication device, someone used a fast and steady voice to report. Wearing bulletproof vests and helmets, Tai Zhiyuan and Xu Le walked out of the VIP room under the protection of more than ten fully armed security personnel and walked out of the gymnasium.
There were two corpses lying in the elevator reserved for VIPs. The doors of the elevator opened and closed repeatedly, repeating the same process for eternity.
There was a series of hurried footsteps on the empty stairs. Xu Le, who was following behind Tai Zhiyuan, saw the bullet marks on the wall and the blood around the corner through the glass mask. He listened to his own hurried breathing and quickly followed the group down the stairs. He wondered in his heart how many of the Tai family's security personnel had died here today.
The gymnasium had already been cleared by the security personnel to ensure that it was safe. The service personnel who were lucky enough to survive the gunfight were gathered in a room. When the group of people walked past the room, Xu Le could not help but take a look inside. He saw the frightened expressions on the faces of the girls, and he felt slightly perplexed.
The stairs led directly to the underground parking lot. The group of people opened the door and saw a black car without any logo. The back door of the black car was already open, and Butler Jin was sitting in the driver's seat.
