Chapter 91 - Assassination (2)
historical
The building fell into a dead silence. Song Nuanyi struggled to get up and walked to the ceiling-to-floor window to stretch. The city was still brightly lit, and the streetlights outside stood quietly in two rows. Although there were not as many cars as usual, there were still a lot of them.
Song Nuanyi thought, ‘Why are the people in these cars running around?’
‘Money? Relationships? Dreams?’
These people who were tired of running around must have their own reasons for working hard. Just like her, she was reborn and had to work hard to change everything so that she could control her own fate and become her own master.
While her mind was wandering, Song Nuanyi suddenly heard movement at the door. She was shocked.
Who could it be at this time of night? Didn’t Assistant Chen already leave?
Her body was covered in a cold sweat. The movement outside was very careful. It sounded like the sound of a door being pried open. She took off her high heels and held them in her hands. She quickly walked to the bookshelf and pressed a button.
The bookshelf slowly moved away. Behind it was a dark room. Song Nuanyi went in without hesitation and the bookshelf returned to its original position.
The dark room had been built when the company had just completed its construction in the Capital so that they could take a break after work. Only she and Assistant Chen knew about this dark room. Even Wu Chenjin did not know about it.
She sat in front of the desk and turned on the laptop. This place was connected to the office’s surveillance camera. Usually, in the dark room, one could see all the people entering and leaving the floor of the president’s office.
The computer lit up and the surveillance camera suddenly appeared.
On the screen, a man in black, a cap, and a mask came in with a sharp awl. He tiptoed behind the door and stood still as if he was listening for any movement inside.
After a long time, he suddenly appeared and flashed to the center of the room. He was surprised to find that there was no one inside.
......
He maintained the posture of holding a knife. He walked around the room once and was sure that there was no one inside. He took out his phone as if he was sending a message to someone.
He looked down at his phone for more than ten seconds and suddenly raised his head as if he had sensed something. His eyes were accurately fixed on the camera at the corner of the roof.
Song Nuanyi, who was watching the surveillance in the dark room, was startled by the sudden stare. She suddenly raised her head as if she was trying to avoid the face that had rushed in front of her. Her heart was beating violently.
Did he notice me?
Song Nuanyi’s brain almost stopped working. She kept asking herself if she had been noticed.
The other party only stared at the camera for a few seconds. Then, he took out something and shot it at the camera. Song Nuanyi’s surveillance screen instantly turned into a blur of black.
She could no longer see the person’s actions.
Song Nuanyi quietly dialed the police number. After briefing the police briefly, the police said that they would immediately send out a team. They told her not to go out until the police arrived.
Song Nuanyi waited anxiously, occasionally going near the bookshelf to listen for the movements outside.
About ten minutes later, she suddenly heard a violent noise that she could not hear before, and then she shouted, “Who is it!”
Song Nuanyi thought that the police had arrived. She was about to wait for the police to finish everything before appearing, but she found that when the two sides were fighting, one of the voice was very familiar.
It was Wu Chenjin!
Why was he here at this time of night?
Oh No, Wu Chenjin’s body had just recovered. How could he possibly defeat an experienced villain?
Song Nuanyi’s heart instantly stopped. Without thinking, she unhesitatingly took out a box with a combination lock from under the bed. She opened the box, and inside was a pistol.
She resolutely opened the bookshelf door of the secret room. The strong light of the office instantly lit up the dark room with the lights off. The scene in front of her made her shudder.
The two people fighting outside also noticed the moving bookshelf. Song Nuanyi hid behind the bookshelf. After the bookshelf moved to a suitable position, she suddenly appeared and aimed at the man in black and shot him.
With a bang, the man could not dodge in time and was shot in the shoulder. When he saw Song Nuanyi appear, he actually ignored the bullet wound on his shoulder and rushed toward song Nuanyi with the awl.
