Xia Qianchen slowly opened her eyes, her throat was filled with smoke and her lips were dry. She saw a figure sitting with his back to her, carefully wiping a pistol.
A revolver chambered for the .600 Nitro Express cartridge manufactured by Pfeifer Zeliska.
.600 NE is an elephant bullet, used in high-power hunting rifles.
When an ordinary person fires a shot, the recoil will throw the gun back.
The man concentrated on cleaning his gun and loading it, and his figure exuded a cold and silent aura.
Xia Qianchen choked and coughed, struggling to sit up.
"Are you awake?" She put down her pistol, poured a glass of water and handed it to Xia Qianchen.
"Ellen?" Xia Qianchen frowned and was stunned when she saw the face of the person in front of her clearly.
"Drink the sleep." Ellen fed the water to Xia Qianchen and drank it.
Feeling much better, Xia Qianchen looked around and found her lying in a simple room, which looked like a small hotel from the furnishings.
Xia Qianchen recalled the fire last night. She didn't know when she was stunned by the fire, and she thought she would die in the fire.
"Did you rescue me?"
"What do you think?" Ellen raised her eyebrows.
Xia Qianchen looked at her silently. Didn't she think that she was deliberately trying to please her, so she hated her? Why did she still want to save her?
Suddenly Xia Qianchen's eyes moved: "You started the fire in the prison."
"of course not."
"oh."
"He is my companion."
"..." Xia Qianchen, "Why?!"
"Silly girl, how can we escape from prison without setting fire to it?"
Xia Qianchen raised her brows slightly. It turned out that Ellen had been secretly planning to escape from prison for a long time, but she was not included in the plan.
"Are you pretending?" refers to Ellen's indifference and alienation towards her.
Ellen said: "Didn't you realize that the prison was being monitored?"
"I'm aware of it." Regarding Sister Hei and the rat poison, there are many other subtle things. Xia Qianchen is not a fool. She is aware of it. She just thinks that this kind of monitoring is normal. "The prison is equipped with monitors."
"No, I'm talking about people outside the prison monitoring our behavior."
"Is it?"
Could it be Young Emperor Nangong? This pervert.
"So you planned this jailbreak, in order to prevent him from seeing the clues, and in order to prevent him from knowing that it was you who rescued me, and to stage a temporary break with me?" Xia Qianchen smiled, "I can
Do you use the word "break up"?"
Only friends can be considered friends.
"Why not?" Ellen said, "Thank you."
"Why are you saying thank you? I should be thanking you for saving me."
"…That was the first birthday cake I ever received."
Xia Qianchen: "..."
"It's a pity that it ended up in the trash can," Ellen put down the water glass and said full of regret, "What a pity."
Xia Qianchen smiled with bright eyes: "What does it matter? Next year, the year after, and every year on your birthday from now on, I can personally make a cake for you...if you need it."
The boulder that had been accumulating in my heart fell.
If you give sincerely, you will definitely receive sincere feedback...
Before giving the cake, Ellen was not on the prison escape list at all. It was the cake that saved her.
The two looked at each other quietly for a while, with smiles in each other's eyes.
"Why must we set a fire? This will put the lives of other prisoners in danger."
"Someone is hunting me. In fact, I took refuge in a prison," Ellen told her. "They recently found out my whereabouts. I set fire and tried to move the others to a safe place. But unfortunately No. 0332
He and No. 0321 did not survive the disaster and were trapped in the fire and turned into ashes..."
She did not tell Xia Qianchen that in order not to arouse suspicion, she also buried several innocent female prisoners with her.
"So, both of us are 'dead' now?"
"That's true until the police investigate, but I'm afraid they won't be able to investigate."
Xia Qianchen asked: "Who is chasing you?"
"I am a killer."
"So are you safe now?"
"Maybe not yet. They are different from the police. They are very cunning foxes." Ellen picked up the gun again and turned it around in his hand handsomely. "But this deception can at least buy me some time to escape."
."
Xia Qianchen looked at Ellen's flexible left hand: "You..."
"No one told you that I'm left-handed?"
"No one knew before you told me?"
"So, it's a secret."
"You told me the secret," Xia Qianchen said with a smile, "Thank you for your trust."
"I have a more important secret, do you want to know?"
"If it's so important, don't tell me."
"What if I really want to tell you..."
Xia Qianchen looked at her in surprise and found that her expression was serious and serious as never before.
"Is it related to me?"
Just as Ellen was about to say something, the door was rudely opened, and a burly man walked in: "Ellen, it's getting late, are you ready?"
Ellen coldly put the gun on her waist: "Dak, I'm talking about important things, give me another 5 minutes."
Dak looked at Xia Qianchen: "Okay, hurry up, I'll wait outside."
The door slammed shut again, and Xia Qianchen asked: "Are we leaving?"
"I'm leaving."
"..."
"By the way, I threw the chains we carried with us into the fire."
"You mean your cross still belongs to me..." Xia Qianchen fumbled around her chest for a while, and sure enough, her music box chain was missing.
"I'm sorry. You told me that it was something you had left on your body since you were a child. It was the only clue to find your biological parents..."
It is also a kind of sustenance for her longing.
"Because it's important, I can hide it from the pervert who is pestering you."
Ellen's eyes were insightful, and she might have guessed who the so-called "pervert" was. Only Young Emperor Nangong had been to the prison and interacted with her. Then came Anda, the daily food supplements, the piano and the Book of Songs, and the abduction incident at night.
.
"You are safe during this period, but do not go home or contact your friends and relatives for the time being."
"Then where are you going?"
"I am being closely followed and need to go abroad to avoid the limelight."
Xia Qianchen was silent for a moment and then said: "You can't take me with you, are you afraid that I will cause trouble?"
"It's too dangerous..." Ellen said, "Don't let people here know that you have anything to do with me. Otherwise, you will have to live on the run like me for the rest of your life."
