Bai Lin and Yan Ruo looked at each other. He had also heard it. The two of them immediately prepared to leave quietly to avoid wasting any more time.
“Bai Lin!”
A loud shout rang out, and the entire building seemed to hear it.
It was Rattlesnake, who had been waiting impatiently on the top floor. He was using a loudspeaker to threaten Bai Lin.
“I’ll give you three minutes. If you don’t come up, your dear San-ge will become a corpse!”
Yan-3 had already arrived with his men. As soon as he heard that, he immediately asked the sniper to aim his rifle at Rattlesnake’s head.
If Rattlesnake dared to attack Zhou Guang, his head would immediately be pierced through.
By then, Bai Lin had already gotten out through the chain. A loud noise came from behind her. It turned out that the thing locked in the laboratory had been awakened by the shout.
She only had three minutes. Bai Lin became anxious. She did not care what was behind her and ran to the top floor with Yan Ruo.
The two of them ran to the top floor and locked the door to the stairs without hesitation. This way, the escape route was completely blocked.
However, this would also prevent the others who were looking for the source of the mutation from barging in, and their safety would be ensured.
“It seems that you don’t really care about your brother.” Seeing Bai Lin holding Yan Ruo’s hand, Rattlesnake immediately sneered.
He knew that Yan Ruo was the person who he was ordered not to touch in this mission. However, the man had appeared here by himself. He could not guarantee if there would be any accident.
“Cut the crap and let him go.” Bai Lin saw that Zhou Guang was tied tightly to the ground. There were no obvious injuries on his body, but he seemed to have been knocked unconscious.
Rattlesnake laughed and kicked Zhou Guangs calf. “Sure, I’ll let him go after you die!”
Yan Ruo calculated the time in his heart. Since Yan-3 had brought his men over, most of Rattlesnake’s people who were lying in ambush around the area should have been taken care of. However, they could not come up to the roof and could only send snipers to provide long-range support.
They could directly fight with Rattlesnake now.
Bai Lin did not intend to care so much. She knew that no matter what the outcome was, Yan Ruo would be there to cover it up. However, this was a livestream after all, so she still had a lot of concerns.
Firstly, she did not want to cause more troubles for Yan Ruo. This matter started because of her, yet he had to put in the effort. It was like this the last time, and it was the same this time.
Secondly, there were many people watching the livestream. She now knew that there were many fans who cared about her and liked her. She did not want those people to worry and feel sad for her.
Seeing Bai Lin’s hesitation, Yan Ruo did not rush her. He did not say anything and just gently placed his hand on her shoulder.
Bai Lin held the gun to her chest and asked, “Have you considered the
consequences?
“You think you can achieve your goal by threatening me with the people close to me?” She calmly loaded the gun.
Rattlesnake’s expression began to twist as hatred and anger intertwined on his face. He stepped on Zhou Guang’s hands, which had written countless beautiful melodies, and even ground on them.
[Even if it’s scripted, it’s too much! Who is this actor? Why’s he acting so inappropriately?!]
[So you know it’s just a part of the script too. It doesn’t look like he’s stepping on him too hard. Is your Best Singer that precious?]
[Why do I feel like it’s not an act? This plot is very strange. It feels very different from the background story.]
[No matter what, lets just continue watching. There might be another reversal in the end.]
“Being angry because of your own incompetence and using innocent people to achieve you goal.” Bai Lin’s tone was calm with a hint of compassion, as if she was reciting an eulogy for Rattlesnake. “For people like you, it’s meaningless even if you hold a weapon.”
Rattlesnake did not expect Bai Lin to do this.
He had imagined that Bai Lin would beg him to let Zhou Guang go and would panic, but she did not.
Rattlesnake turned around and pointed his gun at Zhou Guang. “I…”
The moment he turned around, Bai Lin quickly raised her gun and aimed at him.
“Bang!’
Rattlesnake’s right arm was shot.
Fatty, who was hiding on the side and preparing to launch a sneak attack, did not have time to react. Seeing this situation, he immediately gave up on
Rattlesnake and turned around to escape down the outer wall of the institute. Just as he took a step, he felt a pain in his knee. Then, he lost all feeling in his entire leg and fell directly on the cushion that had been set at the bottom of the building in advance. A few staff members in black immediately appeared beside him and tied him up.
Fatty felt his legs gradually lose all feeling.
“Who sent you?!” he asked angrily, but no one answered. He was quickly tied up and brought into an ambulance..
