Chapter 118 Yue Huizhen's Best Friend
"This damn phone disconnected at the crucial moment."
Inside the restroom, Lok Wai-ching kept tapping on her phone, looking dejected.
Actually, today's events had nothing to do with Lok Wai-ching.
After Yue Huizhen's last interview with Jiang Tiansheng, it was well-received because of its quality.
Therefore, Lok Wai-ching has gone from an ordinary reporter to a television reporter, and all she needs to do is work at the television station.
Not only are they protected from wind, sun, and rain, but they also get to appear on television and become famous, and their salaries and benefits are much better.
But it was precisely because of this that Lok Wai-ching received an invitation to the jewelry exhibition.
She didn't want to come in the first place.
Coincidentally, one of Lok Wai-ching's friends was also a reporter, and just like her before.
The other person's name was Di Yun, and she was also a beautiful reporter.
She wanted to attend the jewelry exhibition and then write an article for the newspaper. By leveraging her connection with Lok Wai-ching, the two of them ended up attending the jewelry exhibition.
Everything was going very smoothly.
However, when Le Huizhen went to the toilet, it happened to be full because the toilets in the exhibition hall were occupied.
"What bad luck."
Le Huizhen muttered something to herself, then found Di Yun and said, "Xiao Yun, I'm going downstairs to find a restroom, I'll be back in a bit."
"Okay, you can go ahead."
Di Yun nodded, then asked, "Should I go with you?"
"No need, I can do it myself."
Lok Wai-ching waved her hand.
At the jewelry exhibition, the two sisters no longer needed to go to the restroom hand in hand.
So, Lok Wai-ching left the jewelry exhibition hall and went downstairs, but after walking several floors, she still couldn't find a restroom.
"Too much trouble."
Lok Wai-ching truly felt that today was a terrible day.
"What bad luck today. I should have stayed home. I hope nothing unexpected happens later," Yue Huizhen muttered to herself before taking the elevator to the first floor.
She remembered that there was a huge bathroom on the first floor, which she figured no one would be there.
Since she was going to take the elevator anyway, and there was plenty of time, Lok Wai-ching took the elevator directly to the first floor.
Finally, after using the toilet, Lok Hye-jung felt a sense of relief.
"Comfortable."
Le Huizhen washed her hands in front of the mirror, then took out her makeup bag and touched up her makeup.
For women, no matter where they are, the most important thing is to put on makeup.
So, a few minutes later, Lok Hye-jung finished touching up her makeup and came out of the bathroom.
After coming out, Lok Wai-ching had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.
The next second, Lok Wai-ching instinctively hid at the stairwell, wondering what bad thing might happen.
Immediately afterwards, a burst of gunfire rang out.
Lok Wai-ching witnessed the security guard on the first floor die right in front of her.
Ah~!
Lok Wai-ching almost screamed, but thankfully she reacted in time and covered her mouth.
Then, Lok Wai-ching witnessed all the security guards on the first floor being slaughtered, and then a group of people appeared, changing into the security guards' clothes.
"terrorist"
Instantly, those four words appeared in Yue Huizhen's mind.
At this moment, Lok Hye-jung was panicking. She was just an ordinary woman, and she was bound to be afraid when facing these terrorists.
The next second, a figure suddenly entered Yue Huizhen's mind.
Afterwards, Lok Wai-ching quietly turned around and went upstairs, and deliberately took off her high heels, walking barefoot on the ground, just to avoid making a sound.
It has to be said that Lok Hye-ching is really lucky.
If she hadn't been hiding in the corner of the stairs, she would definitely have been discovered.
Moreover, just about three seconds after she turned and went upstairs, a terrorist walked over and glanced at her.
Since I didn't see anyone or hear any sound, I didn't pay any more attention to it.
If it weren't for Lok Wai-ching's quick thinking in taking off her high heels, she would have been exposed by now, and there would only be one outcome.
After reaching the second floor, Lok Wai-ching didn't dare to linger and continued walking upwards until she reached the eighth floor, where she stopped and found a restroom.
Now, the only person she can turn to for help is Jiang Tiansheng.
police?
As a journalist, she knew all too well about the police's actions, so she simply gave up.
Instead of relying on the police for survival, we should place our hopes on Mr. Jiang.
So, Le Huizhen dialed Jiang Tiansheng's phone number from memory.
'Answer it, Mr. Jiang, please answer the phone!' Yue Huizhen prayed incessantly in her heart.
For Lok Wai-ching now, every minute and every second feels like an eternity.
Finally, after ringing a few times, the call was answered.
After the call connected, Yue Huizhen heard Jiang Tiansheng's voice on the other end of the line, which sounded like celestial music.
He cried out urgently, "Mr. Jiang, help me!"
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Tiansheng's voice came through the phone again.
'Mr. Jiang still remembers my voice, it's really...' Just as Yue Huizhen was about to let her mind wander, she suddenly realized that this was not the time for daydreaming or infatuation.
候。
“Mr. Jiang, help! There’s a terrorist attack at Junshi Building…” Yue Huizhen hurriedly said.
However, before she could finish speaking, Lok Hye-jung heard the dial tone coming from the phone.
"What happened? Why did the call drop at such a crucial moment?"
Lok Hye-jung glared angrily at her phone. It was her lifeline; how could it fail her at such a crucial moment?
"And what's with all this talk about 'Little Smart' phones, supposedly covering the whole world? I think it's all just..." Just as she was about to curse, Yue Huizhen remembered that Little Smart was Mr. Chiang's business.
"Fine, I'll let you off this time."
As Yue Huizhen spoke, she looked down at her phone screen and realized that the phone signal had completely disappeared.
"Could it be?"
Suddenly, Yue Huizhen thought of a possibility.
The sudden loss of all signal can only mean one thing: someone has placed signal jammers around the building.
That's why her call was disconnected instantly, because the signal disappeared.
"Should I just wait here?"
Lok Wai-ching felt uneasy. The surroundings were unfamiliar, and there were so many terrorists here.
"By the way, Di Yun..."
Le Huizhen suddenly remembered that her good friend Di Yun was still upstairs.
If terrorists were to see her good friend Di Yun, she would certainly not have a good ending.
No one knew her sisters' charm better than Lok Hye-ching.
In fact, Yue Huizhen could say that her good friend Di Yun was even more beautiful than herself.
"Fight."
Le Huizhen gritted her teeth and said, "You stinky Di Yun, if I save you today, and you don't repay me in the future, you'll marry a poor, ugly, and old man."
Le Huizhen muttered to herself, then quickly began climbing the stairs.
She's afraid to take the elevator now; who knows if there are terrorists inside?
She had no idea that there were terrorists inside the building.
Now, every step she takes could lead to encountering terrorists. Fortunately, Lok Wai-ching made it to the 23rd floor without any major incidents.
The Junshi Building has only 23 floors, and these 23 floors are a huge banquet hall, which is why the jewelry exhibition is held here.
Upon arriving on the 23rd floor, Lok Wai-ching did not immediately push open the door and go inside. She did not know whether the inside was under the control of terrorists.
Lok Wai-ching carefully pressed her ear against the door, listening to the sounds inside.
Phew, thank goodness...
Lok Wai-ching breathed a sigh of relief, hearing the sounds inside; it was still the sound of everyone talking.
This indicates that the terrorists have not yet occupied this floor.
That means she still has a chance.
Thinking of this, Yue Huizhen hurriedly opened the door, opened it a crack, and went inside.
She wasn't stupid; of course she knew that the terrorists came here for the jewelry.
If she were to inform everyone now that there are terrorists...
There's only one outcome: everyone will initially disbelieve and question themselves. In the process, terrorists might just arrive and capture her and everyone else, including herself.
With her and Di Yun's beauty, she could imagine what would happen to them if they were caught.
Therefore, this is not advisable, and she won't tell everyone.
'Better to sacrifice your fellow Daoists than me; don't blame me.'
Le Huizhen thought to herself, and then quickly found Di Yun.
"Huizhen, you're back? Why are you so late?"
Di Yun looked at Le Huizhen and asked in confusion.
Almost half an hour passed after Lok Wai-ching went to the restroom before the other person returned.
"There's no time to talk now, come with me right now."
Le Huizhen whispered to Di Yun, "Don't ask anything, just leave as if nothing happened."
Di Yun was unaware of what had happened.
But she knew that Lok Hye-jung must have discovered something, otherwise she wouldn't have that expression.
So, Di Yun followed behind Le Huizhen, and the two of them quietly walked outside together.
"Huizhen, what exactly happened?"
Di Yun looked at Le Huizhen and asked with a puzzled expression.
Just now, with so many people inside, Yue Huizhen forbade him to ask, so Di Yun didn't ask either.
Now that we've left the banquet hall, we can talk about it now.
"shush"
Le Huizhen pulled Di Yun out of the banquet hall and was about to speak in the corridor when she heard a sound coming from the stairwell. She quickly shushed him.
"Don't make a sound, let's go upstairs."
Le Huizhen pulled Di Yun along and quietly walked down the stairs next to them towards the rooftop.
Just as Yue Huizhen and Di Yun arrived on the rooftop, the terrorists arrived on that floor.
"Di Yun, don't speak loudly."
After arriving on the rooftop, Yue Huizhen pulled Di Yun aside and hid, then whispered, "I saw terrorists downstairs just now..."
Immediately afterwards, Lok Wai-ching recounted everything she had just seen.
"Oh, terrorists?"
Upon hearing this, Di Yun almost cried out in surprise, but fortunately he quickly covered his mouth to avoid making a loud sound.
"Then what should we do now?"
Di Yun looked at Le Huizhen and said in a flustered manner.
It is obvious that Di Yun is prettier than Le Huizhen, but when faced with important matters, she is definitely not as composed as Le Huizhen.
"Actually, it's not safe here either."
After glancing around the rooftop, Yue Huizhen spoke.
This rooftop appears to be deserted, completely empty, and exceptionally quiet.
However, if one were a terrorist, one would definitely need to station more people to guard the area in order to prevent the police from storming in from the rooftop.
By the time……
"Xiaoyun, listen to me. We need to go downstairs now, down to the lower floors, and find a secluded place to hide. Do you understand?" Le Huizhen looked at Di Yun and said earnestly.
Just now, she heard noises on the stairs, which must have been from terrorists, so she hurriedly took Di Yun to hide on the rooftop.
