Rolling on the spot.
Lin Chuan immediately moved closer to the door. He opened the door, and outside was a corridor with dim lighting and wall-mounted candle lamps. Lin Chuan took a mirror out of his pocket, glanced left and right, and saw no one at both ends of the corridor. He then walked out boldly, as if he was one of the villa's staff members.
However, both ends of the corridor led to mysterious directions. Lin Chuan, who always followed the principle of checking left first then right, turned and headed left. As he walked, he also smoked a cigarette. The left side of the corridor led directly to the main hall.
In the hall, a few Western men gathered together chatting, and from a distance, Lin Chuan could hear some mention of Middle Eastern countries. It seemed these guys might be considering fleeing to the Middle East. However, Lin Chuan had no intention to eavesdrop; he turned and entered a nearby room, which was empty except for a dirty bed. Lin Chuan was puzzled and searched several rooms but found nothing.
Creak...
Upon opening another door, he found a burly man thrusting into a Western woman below him, who was energetically cooperating.
Seeing this scene, Lin Chuan hurriedly closed the door, hoping that his rash action didn't disturb their activities. Lin Chuan was even more puzzled; why had he still not found Tang Yumeng's whereabouts? Could she be on the second floor?
Just as Lin Chuan was about to go upstairs, a crisp sound broke the silence of the dark.
"What's going on?" Several mafia members in the hall immediately exclaimed.
"Upstairs, someone!" A few men hurriedly ran out from a nearby room, holding submachine guns.
Suddenly, several men quickly dashed down. They sprinted upstairs. Lin Chuan was startled and immediately understood that something must have gone wrong at Silver Fox's end. So, he took off running upstairs.
"Lin Chuan." The voice of Silver Fox came through the low-frequency communicator attached to Lin Chuan's ear.
"What's happening?" Lin Chuan urgently asked.
"Found her." Silver Fox gasped for air and said, "Too many people, come quickly to rescue!"
In a room on the third floor near the hall, Silver Fox had located Tang Yumeng, but unfortunately, due to the dim lighting, he didn't notice another guard inside. Silver Fox had accidentally disturbed the sleeping guard in his rush to save her. Although Silver Fox killed the guard immediately, the sound of gunfire had already alerted the others.
Soon, five or six armed mafia members surrounded the room, quickly sealing off the scene. Silver Fox and Tang Yumeng couldn't escape from the room.
"I never thought you'd come to rescue me." Tang Yumeng looked haggard, but her stunning beauty couldn't be hidden, just as dust cannot cover the luster of jewels.
"Do you think I wanted to?" Silver Fox disdainfully looked at Tang Yumeng.
"Then why...?" Tang Yumeng looked bewilderedly at Silver Fox.
"It's all because of Lin Chuan." Silver Fox scoffed.
"Lin Chuan?!" Tang Yumeng looked puzzled and said, "You mean... Lin Chuan also came?"
By the end, Tang Yumeng herself seemed hardly able to believe it.
"Exactly." Silver Fox nodded and said, "I don't care about your life and death; I care about Lin Chuan, but Lin Chuan cares about you. I don't want anything to happen to Lin Chuan, nor do I want him to be in any trouble. That's why I had to come rescue you reluctantly."
"Lin Chuan?" Tang Yumeng looked thoughtful, then despondent. Every time she thought about Lin Chuan and Fang Yuan's passionate kiss, Tang Yumeng felt an unbearable pain. Being captured by the mafia this time, she had completely lost the will to live. Tang Yumeng tearfully said, "Impossible."
"What's so impossible!" Silver Fox quickly pulled out a silver handgun from her boot. It was a classic revolver that held six rounds of ammunition, and Silver Fox carried about thirty rounds with her. Although this meager firepower was negligible compared to their assault rifles, it was still better than nothing. Silver Fox, holding the pistol, stayed close to the doorway and said, "Red Fox, sometimes I really envy you, why can Lin Chuan love you so desperately, why isn't he in love with me?"
"I..." Tang Yumeng smiled bitterly, "You're wrong, I also loved him deeply."
"Don't you love him anymore?" Silver Fox asked coldly.
"I love!" Tang Yumeng nodded, "But is it really that hard to obtain a pure love?"
Silver Fox was startled and asked, "What happened between you and Lin Chuan?"
Bang bang...
Before she could finish speaking, intense gunfire erupted outside again.
"Lin Chuan is here." Silver Fox exclaimed.
"Lin Chuan..." Tang Yumeng's gaze became hazy, unsure of what attitude to face Lin Chuan with.
That night, Tang Yumeng felt her heart shatter completely; she thought leaving Jiangbei City would allow her to forget Lin Chuan completely, but during these days in the United States, her longing for Lin Chuan grew deeper and more profound.
And it was this very longing that made Tang Yumeng unable to eat or sleep well.
"Hurry and rush out with me!" Silver Fox urgently grabbed Tang Yumeng's arm, and as they were about to dash out, several bullets hit the door frame next to them, sparking several bursts of flames. The sparks frightened Tang Yumeng into crouching down.
"What should we do?" Tang Yumeng urgently asked.
"Lin Chuan will come from outside to assist us." Silver Fox immediately calmed down.
"Will Lin Chuan be in danger?" Tang Yumeng asked anxiously.
"Are you that worried about him?" Silver Fox asked with a smile.
"I..." Tang Yumeng bit her red lip, gritting her teeth: "Of course I care about him."
At this moment, the gunfire outside suddenly became more intense. Silver Fox leaned his ear, saying, "Let's go, Lin Chuan is here."
"How do you know?" Tang Yumeng hurriedly asked.
"Didn't you hear the gunfire outside has intensified?" Silver Fox spoke urgently: "Moreover, the enemies haven't charged in, obviously someone is interfering with them. So, let's retreat now while they haven't noticed us."
"Alright!" Tang Yumeng immediately nodded.
Suddenly, Silver Fox, holding a revolver in her hand and grabbing Tang Yumeng's hand, dashed out swiftly. As they opened the door, more than ten armed mafia members were leaning against the hallway wall, their guns all pointed in another direction, clearly waiting for the right moment.
Silver Fox quietly led Tang Yumeng to sneak away from the other side.
Just as the two were about to go downstairs, suddenly, a mafia member spotted Silver Fox and Tang Yumeng.
"Oh, damn, they are running away," the mafia member shouted abruptly.
"Quick, catch them!" the leading mafia member bellowed.
Clattering...
Two armed men immediately chased after them.
Bang bang...
With her back against the wall, Silver Fox heard the footsteps of the two approaching and immediately peeked out her head and fired two shots, instantly claiming their lives. The bullets pierced through their foreheads and exited from the back of their skulls, leaving a bloody hole at the scene.
Silver Fox immediately grabbed Tang Yumeng's arm and rushed downstairs quickly.
In the lobby on the first floor, they coincidentally encountered five or six armed men coming from outside, who spotted Silver Fox and Tang Yumeng in an instant.
"Catch them," the mafia members roared.
"Catch them!" A group of people shouted in anger.
A crowd swarmed towards them. Seeing this, Silver Fox's expression changed rapidly, regretting the brief delay that led them into encountering even more of the enemy's forces. This frustrated Silver Fox.
"Retreat!" Silver Fox hurriedly led Tang Yumeng to retreat.
Five or six men quickly followed them.
Seeing that they were about to be caught in a pincer attack, Silver Fox reluctantly used her silver revolver to suppress the enemy's advance. Two bullets hit one of the men; although not fatal, they made it clear to the enemy that it wasn't easy to charge forward. The five men had to take cover behind walls, using mirrors to observe the situation at the stairway entrance.
"Let me do it," Tang Yumeng said through gritted teeth: "I'll cover you, you coordinate with Lin Chuan."
"How could that be?" Silver Fox shook her head, saying: "You are the target we need to rescue today, you must return safely to Lin Chuan's side."
"What about you?" Tang Yumeng asked, biting her teeth as she looked at Silver Fox.
"I'm fine." Silver Fox smiled and said: "I was born to take risks. I'm always ready to face death."
Tang Yumeng didn't know what to say next, she shook her head and said: "No, we leave together."
Lin Chuan was also having a tough time. Although he was formidable, he wasn't a god. More than ten armed mafia members had completely blocked the hallway. Being unarmed, he had no way to break through their defense. The only two thin daggers he held were hardly a match against more than ten submachine guns of the enemies.
Lin Chuan was also extremely anxious.
"Damn it," he gritted his teeth.
After surveilling the surroundings, Lin Chuan found that the situation wasn't completely hopeless. There was a window at the stairwell on the left; though they were surrounded, he could still escape through this window and quickly rendezvous with Silver Fox and the others.
After making the decision, Lin Chuan immediately took action.
However, to escape through the window, he had to expose himself briefly under the enemy's guns. Therefore, he had to take a risk. Lin Chuan gritted his teeth and rushed out.
