I Am A Killer

I AM A KILLER : CHAPTER 18 ♦ INJURED

As for looking for the safe and opening it, it was Jackal's job, Qin Ke Xuan knew nothing about such high-tech stuff. Jackal successfully unlocked it and found the name list. Just as he was about to take it away, an alarm suddenly sounded.

Wolf and Leopard outside asked anxiously: "What happened?"

"Fvck! That ol' Xiao set a fixed time for the which the safe can be opened safely. When it's opened outside that time, an alarm will sound!" If he had destroyed that system then such a situation would not appear!

Leopard saw the lights flickering on and people moving, and instructed lowly: "Retreat immediately! We'll provide support!"

Qin Ke Xuan said into the intercom: "Stay outside and don't move. Listen, I'm commanding this time, listen to my instructions." She did not need another one to impede their progress. She flicked a bland look at the awkward and anxious Jackal, saying: "Just this once."

Jackal shouted anxiously: "Da Jie! If we're caught this time then there's no next time!"

Qin Ke Xuan grabbed a porcelain and threw it at the window. The glass panes immediately broke, falling on the ground in a pitter-patter. The porcelain, too, flew out the window and landed on the ground with a shattering sound, and then she strode out the study room, "Catch up."

Leopard followed after Qin Ke Xuan tightly, and walked down the stairs to the first floor, turning into a corner and banged the door open with a kick. The person inside immediately screamed: "Who are you?!" It was a woman.

Jackal closed the door behind them, turning around in time to see Qin Ke Xuan's shadow zipping forward, and she was already standing in front of the women. Her hand hacked downwards, and the woman collapsed on the ground. Tsk tsk, she was so cold-blooded, even towards women.

Qin Ke Xuan went to the windows and opened it, looking down. This place was not bad, there were no lights shining in this direction. As for the other people, they probably thought they escaped through the study room window, and all went scurrying in that direction to search. The rest of the people were probably still prowling through every level, and probably would not head in this direction at least for a while. However, the problem was that if they did not leave as soon as they can, they would be trapped, and by that time, it would be difficult to escape.

Qin Ke Xuan turned around speaking to the Jackal behind her: "Go down from here." She stepped on the window ledge and jumped downwards, stepping on the stone ledge protruding from the windows on every level, before dropping down onto the ground.

Jackal remembered that it was still the fourth floor, and lunged towards the window to look down in fear, but saw An Ye completely unscathed below. He heard An Ye's calm and flat voice through his intercom: "Hurry."

Jackal looked at the thin water pipe at the side, and swallowed, before biting his teeth and reached out for the water pipe to slide down. He slid down, squeaking all the way. Everything was still all right until he reached the second floor where the water pipe could no longer bear his weight and broke with a "bang". Thankfully the second floor was not too high up, Jackal only felt his legs numbing, but they were not broken.

This little incident, however, attracted the attention of the people searching for them, "They're there! Quick catch them!"

Qin Ke Xuan grabbed Jackal's elbow and ran around the wall while saying into the intercom: "Leopard, go back to where Wolf is."

"But..."

"We'll catch up."

When they reached the surrounding walls, Jackal immediately squatted, inter-crossing his fingers. Qin Ke Xuan quickly stepped on his connected palms, and Jackal's arms gave a forceful boost, tossing Qin Ke Xuan up into the air and she landed on the wall. She bent down, stretching her hand to pull Jackal up. Jackal gripped the wall, borrowing Qin Ke Xuan's grip, and scaled the wall.
