There was only one bedroom on the second floor, and that was Huang Weining's room. Li Rui carried her into the bedroom and put her on the floor. Just as he was about to close the door, he suddenly remembered that Yang Xiang had not arrived yet, so he temporarily left the door open. His brain worked quickly as he tried to figure out the origin of the two assassins. "Who did they come for? Why did they shoot at the slightest disagreement? Was this the rhythm of wanting to kill all of them? I don't think I have such a vicious enemy, and Yang Xiang came from another city, so she shouldn't have brought her enemy over. Then there's only one answer … "
Thinking of this, he turned to ask Huang Weining, "Do you know who sent those two assassins?"
Huang Weining was so scared that her eyes turned red. Her face was bitter and she looked extremely pitiful. Hearing this, she could only shake her head. She was so scared that she could not speak. At this moment, the decisive and steady career woman had been beaten back to her original self of a lonely little woman.
Both of them were too nervous and frightened. At this critical moment, neither of them thought of calling the police.
"Phew …"
Suddenly, there was a gust of cold wind at the door. Yang Xiang ran in hurriedly. Li Rui waited for her to enter the room before closing the door and locking it.
Yang Xiang noticed his movements. She did not think much of it, but raised her hand to unlock the door, and then opened the door halfway.
Li Rui was puzzled and annoyed. "Xiang Xiang, what are you doing? Are you afraid that those two assassins won't be able to break in? You even unlocked the door and left the door wide open? " Yang Xiang asked him back, "Do you think that even if you locked the door, you can stop two assassins who are bent on killing you? Not to mention a trained assassin, even an ordinary man can open the door with one kick. "Li Rui was immediately speechless. Yang Xiang said, "So we can't guard it. We can only hide and use a trick." Li Rui hurriedly asked, "How do we hide? How are you going to scheme? "
Yang Xiang walked to the end of the large bed and lifted the top of the foldable bed that had a storage function. He pointed at two small storage compartments and one large storage compartment and said, "You guys hide here. I'll use the trick. When the killer comes in, he won't think that you're hiding under the bed. By the time he realizes it, I'll be back. "Li Rui was surprised." Back? You mean you want to go out? But the door has been sealed. How are you going to get out? " Yang Xiang pointed to the balcony and said, "Do you remember the first day I came here? I asked you if you dared to jump across the air to the air conditioner platform?" Then he gave him a strange smile and strode to the balcony.
Li Rui was shocked. He followed up and said, "You're not planning to jump to the opposite platform, are you?" Yang Xiang said, "Yes, that's what I'm planning to do. First, I'll jump onto the air conditioner's external platform, then smash open the window of the opposite house, enter his house, and then go out from his house. Then, I'll circle back to our house and be the oriole behind. Those two assassins definitely won't think I'm going to do this. They won't take precautions and will definitely be played to death by me. You just have to wait and watch the show. Oh right, Zhao, this is the pocket-sized crossbow. You keep it. I've already loaded it. If you encounter any danger later, you can shoot to defend yourself. Remember, don't shoot unless absolutely necessary. You won't have the chance to shoot a second time. "
Li Rui took the crossbow with one hand and grabbed her arm with the other. He shouted, "No, Xiang Xiang, I can't let you take the risk. It's okay if you jump up, but if you can't jump up, you'll fall to your death. This is the tenth floor … no, it's the eleventh floor. "Yang Xiang said," Just because you can't jump doesn't mean others can't. Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and hide. Those two assassins may have already found their way in. You don't have much time left. "Then she pushed his arm away and ran to the balcony.
Li Rui knew he couldn't stop her. It seemed like he could only listen to her. He looked at the bigger storage space under the bed and looked at Huang Weining's figure. He guessed that they could hide inside if they curled up together. But the problem was, if both of them hid inside, once they were discovered, neither of them would be able to escape. There was no turning back. But if one of them hid inside and the other hid in another place, such as the row of tall white wardrobes on the right side of the wall, not only could they share the risk, but they could also help each other. At least it was better than being killed together. Thinking of this, he quickly walked to Huang Weining and whispered, "Weining, quickly hide under the bed."
Huang Weining looked at him in panic. She anxiously shouted, "What about you? Aren't you going to hide in there with me? " Li Rui explained in a low voice, "If both of us hide in there, we won't be able to survive if we are discovered. So it's better for you to hide in there, and I'll hide in the wardrobe. If the assassin wants to lift the bed, I can shoot her with a crossbow to protect you from being discovered. "Huang Weining said in surprise," Then won't you be discovered? " Li Rui said, "It doesn't matter if I'm discovered. I know kung fu, so I can fight with them. Besides, Xiangxiang will be back soon. Don't worry, quickly hide in there. Those two assassins are coming up soon."
Huang Weining said with a face full of pity, "No, I can't let you take risks for me. You …" Li Rui said urgently, "Don't do it again. Quickly hide in there. If you delay any longer, both of us will die." Huang Weining was both scared and moved. Tears gushed out of her eyes instantly. She said, "I won't go in there. I can't let you …"
Li Rui thought that Yang Xiang had already jumped off a building for him and Huang Weining. If the two of them delayed any longer, they would be caught by the assassins. Wouldn't that be letting down Yang Xiang's good intentions? He didn't have the patience to talk nonsense with Huang Weining. He first put the crossbow on the ground, then pressed his hands on her shoulders and gently pressed her down. He grabbed her arm with one hand and pushed her back with the other to help her crawl into the larger storage space.
Huang Weining sobbed, "No, let me go, Li Rui. I can't let you take risks for me. I don't want you to die for me!"
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said with a cold face, "Can't you say something nice? Who said I have to die? Quickly crawl in and lie down. Hurry! " Huang Weining sobbed, "The wardrobe is so eye-catching. It will definitely be the first target of the assassins. You may be found by them very soon. You should hide with me. Even if we are found, we can die together!"
Li Rui was moved by her words, but he didn't say anything else. He pressed her into the large storage space. The large storage space was about one meter wide, one and a half meters long, and about forty centimeters deep. If an adult like Huang Weining wanted to hide inside, she had to lie on her side and curl up. In fact, Li Rui pressed her in like this. When he saw that she had hidden well and was about to get up to cover the top of the bed, he felt something warm on his hand. It was Huang Weining who reached out and grabbed it.
"No, Li Rui, don't go into the wardrobe …"
Huang Weining curled up in the small storage space. She looked at him with tears in her eyes. Her face was full of hope.
Li Rui's eyes were also a little wet. He squeezed out a smile with difficulty. He smiled at her, patted her hand, and pushed her hand away. He resolutely got up …
On the left side of the balcony, the second-floor window was wide open. Yang Xiang was already standing outside the air conditioner. Her eyes were fixed on the air conditioner platform outside the balcony of the opposite apartment. The platform was very small. After placing the air conditioner, there wasn't much space left around it. The space to stand could only be described as an inch or so. However, for Yang Xiang, a former member of the Secret Service, it wasn't difficult to jump over and stay on top of it.
However, she couldn't jump directly to the edge of the platform or the air conditioner on top of it. That wouldn't solve the problem of the huge forward inertia caused by jumping two meters. If she hit the balcony of the opposite apartment, she would bounce back and fall. She could only jump over and use her hands to grab the air conditioner or the pipe that extended out. Her upper body leaned forward and used her body to unload the forward inertia onto the platform or the air conditioner.
Of course, doing this was much more dangerous. After all, she could only use her upper body to unload the force. Her lower body would be suspended in the air. Even if Yang Xiang had been trained for a long time and her climbing skills were several times better than ordinary people, she wasn't 100% sure that she would succeed. Moreover, this was under the dim light of night. However, this was the only way to solve the deadlock at the moment. If she couldn't jump over, then none of the three people in the house would survive tonight. Although she had caught the two killers off guard when she opened the door, it was impossible for her to succeed in counterattacking after the other party was fully prepared. Unless she also had a gun.
"Come on, let all of you see that choosing me, Yang Xiang, as a bodyguard was the right choice!"
In the dark night, Yang Xiang suddenly smiled coldly and arrogantly. She took a deep breath and slowly squatted down. Halfway through, she suddenly sped up. Then she suddenly kicked back and her body left the air conditioner (air conditioner). Like a huge black eagle, she swooped down to the opposite platform …
Downstairs, the two killers still hadn't entered the house. It wasn't that they couldn't enter, but that they didn't dare to. Why didn't they dare to? The answer was very simple. Just now, Yang Xiang had suddenly opened the door and launched a surprise attack, severely injuring the right arm of one of the assassins. And when she retaliated after being shot, she threw out a stunning flying dagger. Not only did it injure the second assassin, it also once again shocked the first assassin who was already at a loss of what to do, causing them to not dare to push too hard.
Outside the door, the second killer leaned against the left wall. His face was a little pale, and his slightly twitching mouth showed that he was enduring an unknown pain. His T-shirt on the upper right side of his chest had been soaked with blood. The place where the fruit knife had stabbed him was a little black because of excessive bleeding, and blood was still flowing out of the wound.
The other killer leaned against him, holding a gun in his left hand and his right arm hanging naturally. His forearm was completely dyed red with blood, and blood was still flowing out of the knife wound occasionally. After flowing over his forearm, it fell into a pool of blood on the ground below. The huge pain made the man clench his teeth. His face was ashen, and his left arm holding the gun couldn't help but tremble. It seemed that he couldn't hold on any longer.
