"I'm going to die. If I keep running, I'm really going to die..."
Suzuki Sonoko, the weakest of the three, leaned against the wall and slowly slid down to the ground. Her eyes were lifeless and her sweat-covered face had a numb expression.
"Sonoko, if you are caught by those people, you will really die..." said Mao Lilan on the side.
Her condition was not much better either. Ever since they escaped from the terrorists, they had been playing hide-and-seek with them in this building. Although Fernande's accurate judgments time and time again allowed the three of them to always shake off the terrorists who were chasing them, this high-intensity, repeated running was really pushing the physical strength of the two high school girls to their limit...
If they keep running like this, they will probably fall to the ground before the terrorists catch up with them.
"Then let them do it."
Leaning against the wall, Suzuki Sonoko looked blankly at the sky outside the corridor window in front of her.
"I can't run anymore. The worst that can happen is that I can let them take me to Beiye. Anyway, the police helicopter just flew over. The police must have taken action. I will just wait for them to rescue me. That's it..."
Her tone is very similar to that of some bad college students.
"But, wasn't the police helicopter shot down by those terrorists before?" Mao Lilan couldn't help but speak.
When the police helicopter approached Xiye, three people who happened to be running along the window corridor of the building waved to the police officers on the helicopter.
The three of them were excited about this because the police finally started to take action.
However, before the three men were chased far by the terrorists, they heard a sudden loud explosion outside the building.
At the same time, three people who were running along the corridor along the window happened to witness the helicopter crashing into the sea.
Well, the helicopter is gone.
The excitement that had just emerged in my heart was instantly doused by this basin of cold water.
"Woo..."
Suzuki Sonoko was hurt by what Mouri Ran said and couldn't help but burst into tears.
"How long are the police going to wait? I really can't hold on any longer, wuwu... There's no news about my sister and brother-in-law. Could something have happened to them?"
"No, don't say that, Sonoko!" Mao Lilan was a little flustered and hurriedly comforted and encouraged: "There is no news yet! We don't know what the situation is in the other buildings! Don't scare yourself! I believe Mr. Shimizu and others, they will be fine!"
"Wu, Xiaolan..." Suzuki Sonoko hugged Mouri Ran and sobbed after hearing this.
Next to the two of them, Kuroba Kaito, who had disguised himself as Fernando, stood by the window, holding his waist with one hand, trying to regulate his breathing.
[No, these two are almost at their limits both physically and mentally…]
For Kuroba Kaito, escaping from this building would be very easy if he were alone, but if these two girls were included, the difficulty would be completely different...
But he couldn't abandon these two people and run away by himself.
There wasn't any complicated reason behind this. After all, he only knew them unilaterally, so Kuroba Kaito couldn't just leave them here...
The two girls are now almost unable to hold on, and the police are acting too slowly.
He had to find a way to let them escape first.
【Um? 】
Looking down at the window downstairs, Kuroba Kaito suddenly discovered that there was an open-air swimming pool downstairs on their side?
In this swimming pool, there are also some slides and other play equipment suitable for children.
[Suoga, is that the swimming pool designed with parent-child interaction as the theme in the brochure? ]
"You two, come here quickly."
After a brief thought, he quickly called over the two people who were still hugging each other, pointed at the swimming pool below and said:
"Quick, let's jump from here into the swimming pool below before those terrorists catch up with us."
"Ah? Jump, jump down?! But this is the fifth floor!" Suzuki Sonoko looked down and said in horror.
"It's okay. We're at a safe distance and the pool water serves as a buffer. Nothing will happen." Kuroba Kaito said confidently.
"But, but..."
"There's no time! Hurry! Once those terrorists catch up, it will be difficult to get close to here..."
Having said that, Kuroba Kaito didn't give the two men a chance to hesitate, and pushed them both onto the windowsill.
"There's a sound over there! Fernande must be here!"
At this moment, the roar of terrorists was heard in the corridor behind the three people.
Chapter 333 Fernando, you are so awesome!
Nishiba, Kuroba Kaito had just asked Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko to climb onto the windowsill when they heard a series of hurried footsteps behind the corridor.
"Hurry! Fernande must be ahead!"
The terrorists' shouts were so close that the two high school girls were a little panicked.
"Your Highness Ferdinand, they, they!"
"Never mind! You jump first!" Without hesitation, Kuroba Kaito shouted at the two men.
"But, but you..."
"I saw him!"
At this moment, a terrorist ran out from the corner of the corridor. He saw the three people and excitedly called out to the people behind him, "Come on! They are trying to escape by jumping out the window!"
[Tsk! It's coming so fast! ]
After taking a glance at the excited terrorist, Kuroba Kaito shook his hands, and the two blue-green gems, the Azure Sea and the Tears of Cleopatra, which he had obtained from the terrorist before, appeared in his left and right hands respectively.
"Don't hesitate! Hurry up and leave! I have a way to escape!"
With a strong push on the backs of the two people who were still hesitating, Kuroba Kaito used this action to quietly put the two gems into the pockets of the two female high school students respectively.
He did have a way to escape, but it was not a sure thing. In order to prevent the worst-case scenario, he could not let the two gems fall into the hands of those thugs.
"Wait! Your Highness Ferdinand!"
"Stop! Or I'll shoot!"
Amid the shouts of Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko, Kuroba Kaito pushed them down with force.
"Pfft!"
There were two sounds of people falling into the water downstairs. Kuroba Kaito, who had finally sent them away, immediately turned around and raised his hand, facing the terrorists who had already raised their submachine guns, and shouted:
"Don't shoot! I surrender!"
"Damn! Fernande pushed those two women down! There's a swimming pool below! But Fernande is still here! I've got him under control! Come here quickly!"
Behind this terrorist, more and more terrorists rushed over from the corridors upon hearing the news and surrounded Kuroba Kaito who was standing by the window.
"We finally caught this guy! Damn, he's been running us for so long!"
"Send some people to the first floor and see if we can capture those two women as well!"
[You really think highly of me. So many people came...]
In the blink of an eye, more than 20 terrorists rushed out of the corridor, each holding a submachine gun and staring at Kuroba Kaito with ferocious faces.
[But this is also good. The more of you gather here, the less pressure those two girls will have...]
"Chief Toriyama!"
At this moment, a bald strong man with arms as thick as Kuroba Kaito's thighs walked out from among the terrorists.
The burly man had a face full of flesh and a ferocious look. He was obviously Toriyama, one of the terrorist leaders in charge of the West Leaf Building.
When the minions were unable to catch Kuroba Kaito and his two companions, Toriyama, who was originally in the banquet hall, personally joined the chasing game, although it was actually of no use.
If the two high school girls hadn't really been able to run any longer, Kuroba Kaito felt that he could even lead this group of thugs around in the building until the police arrived.
"You kid... are you good at running?" Surrounded by a group of terrorists, Toriyama looked Kuroba Kaito up and down.
Is it this frail-looking kid in front of them who is making them run around in the building?
Toriyama thought this was somewhat magical.
"Haha, it's okay, it's okay..." Kuroba Kaito raised his hands above his head and laughed.
"Hmph, where are the two women following you?" With a cold snort, Toriyama glanced out the window at the building below.
There was no one in the swimming pool below, only some ripples on the water surface.
"You don't think you can escape by letting them jump, do you?" Retracting his gaze, Toriyama smiled grimly and said, "Now the entire island is full of our people. Even if they escape from this building, they can't escape from this island. The most they can do is change the place where they will be killed!"
"Whether they can escape or not, we have to try it to know. Maybe they are lucky and can really escape." Kuroba Kaito said with a smile, his tone not showing any weakness.
"Humph, you're pretty tough... okay."
Toriyama was not angered by what Kuroba Kaito said, he suddenly laughed.
“I originally wanted to just shoot you, this arrogant kid, but since you have so much confidence in those two women… I don’t mind letting you live a little longer.
I'll have someone capture them both first, kill them in front of you, and then execute you!
However, to prevent you from running around again when we're not paying attention... someone, shoot him in the leg first and break his leg for me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kuroba Kaito quickly said, "My personal suggestion is that you should just shoot me now."
"What's wrong, little prince? You can't bear to see those two little girls die in front of you?" Toriyama laughed when he heard that.
"That's not the case." Kuroba Kaito shook his head and said seriously, "I still have confidence in the two of them... What I mean is, if you don't shoot me now, I'm going to leave, okay?"
When he said the last sentence, Kuroba Kaito narrowed his eyes, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Hahaha!"
Toriyama suddenly laughed when he heard this, and not only him, but the terrorists around him also laughed along.
“It would have been fine if we hadn’t caught you before, but now you’re surrounded by us, and you still think you can escape?
Hahahaha! Where are you trying to escape to? My prince?"
"Haha, who knows..."
Kuroba Kaito also laughed. He suddenly snapped his fingers. With a gurgling sound, a dozen small white balls fell out of his sleeves and rolled randomly on the floor.
"This is……"
"Boom! Boom!"
