Part-time bodyguard

Chapter 450 Escape
Zhao Shu understood what Shengzi meant, and he said helplessly: "I'm sorry, I can't do it."

Shengzi asked, "Why?"

Zhao Shu said: "The criminals have occupied the first floor, and Duanmu and the others are trapped in the meeting room on the first floor. But I promise that their lives are not in danger for the time being."

Shengzi asked: "What criminals?"

Zhao Shu was sure that the criminal and Shengzi were not in the same group. Since Shengzi and Duanmu were in the same group, the criminal had nothing to do with Duanmu. Zhao Shu replied: "We don't know yet. The war police will arrive in five minutes, and we can contact each other then."

Zhao Shu's personal bodyguard hung up the phone and moved closer to Zhao Shu. Zhao Shu covered the microphone. The bodyguard said, "Mr. Zhao, one of the police helicopters was shot down, and the other two helicopters retreated. According to the preliminary judgment of the personnel on the scene, the helicopter was shot down by a single-soldier shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile. The people at the combat police headquarters said that they hope we can hold on for a while longer, and they need time."

Zhao Shu took a deep breath and said to the bodyguard, "Arrange our people to secret room number two." Our people refers to the maids and Zhao family bodyguards who have been working on the third floor for a long time.

The battle was currently taking place around the grand staircase, which was the only way up. The bodyguards piled up items such as refrigerators and pianos to form a shelter and guarded the north and south staircases. The two gangsters climbed up to the 1.5th floor and were completely exposed to the crossfire from the north and south, and were shot dead on the spot.

Faced with the gangsters' raid, the bodyguards suffered heavy losses, but compared to the staff of the manor, they were still better off. After the first round of cleansing, most of the manor staff were killed, and the remaining staff could no longer cause trouble to the gangsters. The gangsters scattered outside surrounded the main building, and some gangsters dug individual trenches on the lawn, blocking every window and balcony of the manor.

The female gangster interrogated a female bodyguard and got a very important piece of information. Duolan, Zhao Shu and others retreated to the third floor. It was said that there was a very strong secret room on the third floor. However, the female bodyguard did not know the whereabouts of Duanmu and others. She only saw several bodyguards escorting several people and detaining them in a small meeting room. She did not know any of these people.

……

Cui Jian's ordinary cell phone was still vibrating, but the guards had no time to care about it, because now they could clearly hear the gunshots on the first floor. The two guards leaned on both sides of the door, holding guns in both hands, nervous.

Cui Jian used his waist strength to twist the chair to the side, and the ordinary mobile phone fell off the table due to the vibration. Cui Jian opened his right hand to catch the phone. Gui Yi, who was standing on the side, saw Cui Jian crush the phone with his right hand. It was not broken into pieces, but the screen was just broken by kneading. Cui Jian grabbed a piece of the fragment with three fingers and began to cut the cable tie handcuffs on his right wrist.

Cui Jian's hands were obviously not that flexible. Even with more fragments, the length of his fingers and the fragments could barely reach the tie on his wrist, and he had no strength to cut it. At this time, Cui Jian couldn't help but think of Shui Yao, the beautiful girl who could touch her wrist with her fingers.

Gui Yi made a gesture with her eyes and opened her left hand. Cui Jian's right hand was 60 cm away from Gui Yi's left hand. Cui Jian held the fragments and flicked them with two fingers. The fragments flew out and Gui Yi held the fragments with her index and middle fingers. Gui Yi was very satisfied with her ability to catch the fragments. She held one end of the fragments with two fingers and cut the other end back and forth on the cable tie. Although she could not use any force, it was effective.

An explosion sounded nearby, shaking the small conference room, and the two bodyguards squatted down. Gui Yi's left hand was freed, and he did not deal with his right hand. Instead, he took the opportunity to stretch out his left hand to help Cui Jian cut the cable tie handcuffs. Because it was easy to use force, it took less than ten seconds to cut a hole. Cui Jian clenched his fist and broke the cable tie.

Taking the fragments, Cui Jian cut the tie on his left hand, then his left and right feet. After freeing himself from the restraints, Cui Jian quietly approached the two bodyguards. Without thinking or hesitation, he attacked them with a surprise attack.

Cui Jian first hit Bodyguard A's temple with a heavy punch, and then rushed to Bodyguard B. He grabbed Bodyguard B's wrists with both hands to prevent him from shooting him, and hit Bodyguard B's face with his elbow. Bodyguard B was a professional after all, and with his upper body losing its advantage, he pressed Cui Jian against the wall and repeatedly raised his left knee to hit Cui Jian's lower body and abdomen. Cui Jian turned his left thigh to block the vital parts. As the two of them pulled, Cui Jian finally pulled away a little, and used his left hand to temporarily suppress Bodyguard B's wrists holding the gun, and hit Bodyguard B's temple with his right fist.

On the other side, Gui Yi, who had escaped, was fighting with Bodyguard A. Bodyguard A, who was not fully conscious, suppressed Gui Yi with his strength, but Gui Yi took away his dagger first. She held the dagger in reverse and pierced through Bodyguard A's palm with one move.

After pulling out the dagger, Gui Yi's wrist was grabbed by bodyguard A, and Gui Yi threw the dagger from his right hand to his left hand. His left hand pierced through bodyguard A's chest from bottom to top, just below the last rib. This stab did not require much strength, and the dagger went straight through bodyguard A's heart.

Cui Jian knocked down bodyguard B, took the pistol, shot the nearly unconscious bodyguard B in the head, then looked at Duanmu: "You have to pay more this time."

Duanmu was speechless: "Let us go first."

Cui Jian signaled Gui Yi to release the person and said, "I'll go out and take a look."

The decoration of the small conference room is very exquisite. Not only are the materials good, but the door and the wall are integrated into one. You cannot find the existence of the door without careful observation.

As soon as he opened the door, the sound of gunfire entered the office. The power was off in the conference room, so Cui Jian didn't need to spend too much time to adapt to the near-dark environment outside. After he got out of the door, Cui Jian heard someone talking 5 meters away from the corner. The language they spoke was close to Korean, but people familiar with Korean knew they were speaking the North Circle language.

The general meaning is that a team of five people died in the last charge. The captain highly praised the fearless spirit of the two dead and hoped that the other two teammates would carry on the heroic spirit and not give up the victory that was about to be achieved. The two teammates expressed their serious attitude and said that they would definitely not let down.

The captain patted the two men on the shoulders, and the three of them headed towards the grand staircase. Currently, the firefight on the first floor was concentrated at 1.5 floors above the grand staircase.

Cui Jian returned to the conference room and introduced the situation outside: "The armed gangsters are attacking upstairs. It seems that they have received some information. The power of the whole manor has been cut off. The only lighting is the emergency light. According to my speculation, there are many armed gangsters on the first floor, and most of them are equipped with night vision goggles."

Duanmu asked: "Where did this group of people come from?"

Cui Jiandao: "It should be the northern circle."

Duanmu nodded: "It's possible, because I am a dove."

Cui Jian asked: "Dovish?"

Duanmu Dao: "The doves want to strengthen Japan-ROK cooperation and build the US backyard. The hawks want to balance Japan-ROK relations and increase the US's voice. Both of my competitors are hawks."

Cui Jian asked: "Why are you a dove?"

Duanmu said: "This is a personality setting. For example, if I have a loving wife personality setting, then I will regularly post a certain proportion of loving photos on WeChat Moments. If all of them are hawks, it will lead to a lack of supervision of the candidates. I am a dove, and if I do something wrong, the hawks will make trouble and play a role in checking me."

Gui Yi said weakly: "Shouldn't we discuss what to do next?"

Duanmu looked at Xiaocai and the other three and asked, "Where's Hailan?"

Xiao Cai replied: "She was activated for a secret mission."

Duanmu was stunned when he heard this answer. As the captain of the special forces and his confidant, Duanmu was sure that he had not given Hailan any secret mission. Duanmu asked, "What secret mission?"

Xiao Cai replied: "You and I don't have enough authority, only the special forces captain and Hai Lan know."

Cui Jian was smiling on the side, watching the fun without minding the trouble.

Duanmu Dang didn't see it, and said to Xiaocai and the others: "Stop pretending, I am actually the captain of the special forces."

Xiaocai and the other two nodded in unison: "We understand." Duanmu was already prepared to take the blame and sacrifice himself for the special forces captain.

Duanmu was speechless: "What do you understand, Cui Jian?"

Cui Jian was suspicious: "You don't want me to have a bodyguard to prove your identity, do you?"

Duanmu: "Forget it. Cui Jian, can we break out?" Cui Jian replied: "Impossible, we are fine anyway, so we just stay here." If the criminals were targeting the small conference room, they would have already launched an attack on it.

Cui Jian asked: "Have you solved your problem?"

Duanmu nodded: "Separation, I want my things, I only want my things, they can't refuse."

Xiaocai reminded: "Duanmu, don't disclose secrets."

Duanmu said: "It's okay."

Cui Jian asked: "If Dolan died, wouldn't you be at a big loss?"

Duanmu said: "Even if Duolan's body dies, his soul will not perish."

Cui Jian didn’t quite understand: “Even if Dolan is dead, the main figures of the Knights are still Dolan’s faction.”

Duanmu was surprised: "You are smart."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Duanmu pushed a bodyguard's spare pistol to Gui Yi and said, "I have to thank Gui Yi. It was Gui Yi who let me know that the current Knights Order is not the Knights Order I want, it is just my playground. The current Knights Order is the Knights Order Dolan wants, and he hopes that I will follow the route he has set."

Xiaocai looked at his companion: He was really into the role, he really put himself in the shoes of the special forces captain, and was prepared to sacrifice for the special forces captain.

Companion: I admire him very much.

Cui Jian thought to himself that with the Knights' separation, Dulan's killability would be greatly reduced, at least there would be no need to rush to kill him. No, this opportunity was too good to not kill him. Mu Yao had already tampered with Dulan's bulletproof car's air conditioning system. As long as the car started and the air circulated, the poison powder would kill Dulan unknowingly.

The criminals attacked the upper floors, seemingly aiming to kill Dolan. Should he wait for news? Or should he take control and let Dolan get into his own bulletproof car?

The dead bodyguard's intercom rang, and Bai Qi's voice came: "Calling fireworks."

Cui Jian rolled his eyes, placed the intercom in front of an unknown Duanmu subordinate, and said in Korean: "I am Yanhuo."

The subordinate parroted: "I am Fireworks."

The voices sounded unfamiliar, but Bai Qi was not familiar with this group of people. He only knew that Yanhuo and Haishui were Korean and familiar with Korean, so he left them in the small conference room to guard Duanmu.

Bai Qi said: "The criminals have learned the information from the captives. Please take Duanmu and evacuate the small meeting room as soon as possible."

Cui Jian: "How to evacuate?"

The subordinate imitated him, and Bai Qi said, "There is a room with an open door in the southeast, opposite the public restroom. In the room is a desk covered with dust cloth, a sofa, a coffee table and other items. There is a secret passage under the desk, which leads to the dog house. There is an explosion-proof door in the secret passage. The password is ##231."

Bai Qi: "You hide in the secret passage first. If the secret passage is discovered, you can retreat to the doghouse through the explosion-proof door."

The subordinate replied: “I understand.”

Bai Qi: "Be careful, there are at least 30 armed criminals on the first floor, all equipped with night vision goggles, please be careful."

After ending the call, Cui Jian said, "Let's go."

Pulling the door open, Cui Jian squatted and walked to the left. The people behind him filed out and followed Cui Jian's footsteps. Not long after they left, seven or eight people arrived nearby with heavy steps. The woman in the lead shouted, "Where is the door?"

A bodyguard, covered in blood, groped the wall and said, "The door and the wall are the same. It's nearby."

The female leader said, "Down with the night vision goggles, up with the flashlights."

Several people searched separately and soon found the door of the small conference room. The female leader then realized that the door didn't even have a door handle. It had to be opened by either pushing the key inward or by someone inside. The keyhole was located at the joint between two tiles. It was not easy to spot it if you didn't look carefully or used night vision goggles.

The female leader waved her finger, and one of the gangsters kicked the door repeatedly, but it didn't budge. The female leader decisively ordered: "Blow the door open."

20 seconds later, there was an explosion, but the door-breaking bomb did not blow open the door lock. When the female leader was about to increase the bomb equivalent, a gangster reminded her: "Boss, bloody footprints."

The female leader shone the flashlight on the ground and found a small bloody shoe print under the door. From the shoe, it can be seen that the person came out of the meeting room and went southeast. After touching the blood, the female leader judged the time and ordered two people to stay behind and the others to follow her. Before leaving, she shot and executed the bodyguard who was no longer valuable.

Going southeast, the traces of bloody footprints became fainter and fainter, and finally disappeared without a trace. 15 meters ahead was a public restroom. The female leader walked forward and asked her men to go into the restroom to check the situation. She stayed where she was, turned off the night vision goggles, and used a flashlight to look for clues on the ground.

……

At this time, Cui Jian had already left the tunnel team. His excuse was that he wanted to take back the distribution room.

Cui Jian opened the explosion-proof door and went to the kennel through the tunnel.

When he reached the exit, Cui Jian entered the password, opened the wooden board, and found that the entrance to the secret passage was in a discarded large closet in the utility room on the first floor of the kennel. After getting out of the closet, Cui Jian smelled a strong smell of rust, which was unique to blood.

Cui Jian did not turn on the flashlight, but only relied on the weak light to move forward, his nerves tense, ready to deal with any emergency at any time. When he walked to the lobby, Cui Jian saw the bodies of three staff members and four adult dogs. He felt the blood on the bodies and estimated that they had died 15 minutes ago, and the criminals should have left the kennel.

Cui Jian found a position where he could attack or defend. While observing the surrounding situation, he connected with Qi Sha and reported his current situation: "I have escaped from the main building of the manor."

Mu Yao reported his own news: "I got some information here. Dolan is in the safe house on the third floor. The exchange of fire on the 1.5th floor has ended. The remaining bodyguards are relying on the rooms and building layout on the third floor to make a final resistance. The number of bodyguards will not exceed 3 people."

There is a church three hundred meters to the side of the main building of the manor. Mu Yao squatted in the bell tower next to the church. He held a telescope, like a statue, watching the flashing gunfire on the third floor of the manor.
