Lin Xiao pulled Nangong Jin behind him and stared at the group of people vigilantly.

The call the manager received was too weird.

The power outage came too suddenly.

The dome glass windows were sprayed with paint, which blocked the light and made people wonder.

The conflicts that occurred on each floor were even more inexplicable, as if someone had arranged them in advance.

These strangers who seemed to have met by chance in front of me kept shouting as if they were coming to find fault.

In short, everything happened so coincidental that Lin Xiao had to be vigilant.

"Okay, okay, it's so dark and irritating, it's inevitable that you'll be quarrels."

At this time, a rough woman's voice came over, and she pushed a few people away impatiently, and relieved Lin and Xiao.

The woman has big arms and round waists, and a red armband is hung on her arms. She should be an employee in charge of supervision and inspection in the mall.

Other guests who stayed there came to hear the argument and spoke one after another to smooth things over. For the New Year, everyone gave in and it was fine.

The manager yelled on the walkie-talkie for a while and ran over to report anxiously: "Mr. Lin, something happened in the finance office. I'll go and have a look. You can wait a moment."

"What's wrong?"

"I've been thieved!"

"After a thief?"

Lin Xiao's expression became more and more bizarre.

The manager hurriedly left.

The woman with red armband pointed at a few big men looking for trouble and warned them not to do anything randomly.

When the big men saw that there were more and more people gathering, they squeezed out quietly and quickly disappeared into the stairwell.

"I think something is wrong! Go first!"

Lin Xiao said quietly to Nangong Jin.

"Um!"

Just as the two of them were about to squeeze out the crowd, they heard a scream from the bottom layer.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

"Why did you close the door?"

A large number of security guards rushed over at the entrance and exit of the first floor. They held emergency flashlights and swept them unscrupulously among the crowd. At the same time, someone shouted: "Don't squeeze, we suspect that a thief committed a crime and stole the safe in the financial room of the mall. No one could leave until the police arrived!"

"What?

There is a thief?"

"Why?

Your mall has power outages and is now stolen. What does it mean to lock us up?"

"Let us out, otherwise you will sue you and you will go bankrupt!"

The crowd started to make a fuss and clamored to go out, but was stopped by dozens of security guards and refused to leave.

"What are you doing during the New Year?

Will you still let me have a good New Year?"

"Why should you stop us from leaving?

This is an act that limits freedom in life, and we have the right to sue you."

The security captain walked out, first bowed apologetically, and then smiled bitterly: "I understand everyone's mood very well, but the mall lost very important bills and account books and must be retrieved, so I feel wronged and cooperated with you. At the same time, I hope everyone will supervise each other and tell us as soon as possible if there is any clue."

"You lost your stuff, why should we put us under house arrest?"

"That's it! I called the police!"

The chaos on the first floor made Lin Xiao, who was watching from the third floor, feel a sank in his heart.

Not only has the power been cut off, but now even the only door to the mall is blocked, and everything is a bit too coincidental.

Suddenly, someone shouted, attracting the attention of the people on the third floor.

"What does it taste like!?"

As soon as he reminded him, everyone subconsciously twitched their noses and smelled them, and looked around with strange faces.

“The smell of gasoline!”

Someone quickly identified the surprising smell that spreads in the air.

Wow——At this moment, Lin Xiao heard the sound of water flowing.

"Gas! Who puts the gasoline barrel here?"

The pedestrian who was preparing to go down at the elevator suddenly jumped back and screamed in horror.

Someone threw a bucket of gasoline at the elevator entrance, and liquid was pouring out of the bucket, blocking the entire elevator entrance road.

Swish! A spark flashed in the dim space.

The switch box on the wall slammed and caught fire.

Wow! The wires were short-circuited, and the burning smell quickly spread in the air, combined with the smell of gasoline, and rushed straight to the nose.

"Be careful, everyone!"

"It's on fire!"

"There is gasoline, it's terrible!"

Before the crowd could react, I heard a loud bang.

The entire elevator was covered with flames, and the raging fire started to ignite.

Wow! At the same time, fires also broke out around the safety passage, and the fire spread rapidly. The red flames showed a hideous shape, which also caused a lot of panic.

"Not good! It's on fire!"

The crowd was in a mess, and both sides of the three-story corridor were blocked by fire, and the elevator and safety passage completely lost their function.

What’s more, after the fire on the third floor, the first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth floors, the scene escalated instantly, and the heat waves hit the face like a tsunami, carrying the strong smell of smoke.

Lingling--The harsh fire alarm ring sounds.

However, the fire-fighting device that should have been started immediately failed and there was no movement at all.

Lin Xiao and the others were squeezed into the crowd and could not move. He wanted to be distracted to protect Nangong Jin and could only move out slowly.

At this dangerous moment, two pairs of gloomy eyes appeared in the crowd. They stared at Lin Xiao, but no one noticed that they were holding two bright daggers in their hands.

"There will be 500,000 people who participate in the action will have 5 million more people. This is a real chance of falling from the sky."

"Hmph! Take advantage of the chaos to take action, and the gods will not know it!"

"We deserve to be rich. God is helping us with such a good opportunity!"

The two were less than ten meters away from Lin Xiao, and there were dozens of people between them. Although they were crowded, it was easier to succeed when they started to move. There was no room for dodging and gaps, so they could only bear the assassination.

"I will kill a girl later, and you will kill a boy."

"OK!"

After the two agreed, they clenched the knife and began to squeeze in purpose.

Lin Xiao held Nangong Jin in his arms and pressed one hand in front of him. His whole body was as motionless as a telephone pole rooted in the underground. No matter how crowded the crowd was, he could not break through his defense.

Nangong Jin felt very relieved. Even when facing the infinite crowding, she did not look panicked.

"It's not a solution to continue like this! You must leave as soon as possible!"

Lin Xiao swept around and the elevator and stairs were blocked by fire. The only direction to leave was to jump from the third floor.

Lin Xiao is naturally fine to act alone, but it is a bit troublesome to bring Nangong Jin.

"Did someone set fire on purpose?"

I have seen many scenes in Nangong Jin, and today’s events are indeed strange.

"Ninety-nine, I just don't know who else in Zhennan dares to attack me."

"I think it's probably Liu Zhengnan and the others."

Nangong Jin's fist was clenched tightly, "What is she bringing Nangong Chaoyu back?

I definitely don’t have a good intention. They both hate us to the core. I know the woman’s heart best. If it were me, I would have taken action at this critical moment of the year and would not let us attend the family dinner easily.”

Participating in a family dinner means returning to the Nangong Zu family. No matter what Nangong Jianglong thinks, from then on, Nangong Jin will still be protected by the Zu family [www.biquger.me]. Any accident that happens at that time is equivalent to slapping the Nangong family in the face.

At this critical moment, Liu Zhengnan and Nangong Chaoyu are indeed the most suspicious.

"I won't talk about this for now. I'll check it after I escape!"

Lin Xiao protected Nangong Jin and began to move towards the edge of the railing.

No one noticed that two pairs of gloomy eyes were approaching.

Their hands were already clasped on the handle of the knife.
