The man holding the gun also wore a mask. However, as Li Chonglou approached, he surprisingly noticed that the man's eyes did not convey shyness, but rather a complex gaze filled with confusion and a hint of struggle.
This was highly unusual.
Li Chonglou quickly suppressed his emotions and stopped in front of the man.
"Who are you?"
Li Chong楼 attempted to question him, and as expected, the man with the gun ignored his words as if he hadn't heard them, continuing to walk slowly.
This was not normal!
However, seeing that the man was about to collide with him, Li Chong楼 had no choice but to quickly tap a few points on his body. To his surprise, these pressure points had a remarkable effect. As soon as Li Chong楼 finished, the man let out a muffled groan, and clarity returned to his eyes.
"Who are you? How did I get here?"
The man suddenly spoke, looking at Li Chong楼 with a confused expression. However, his words completely baffled Li Chong楼.
Who knew who he was, or how he got here...
But in the next moment, as if he had suddenly realized something, the man retreated rapidly, creating distance between them. Without another word, he turned and left.
Li Chong楼 was left utterly bewildered.
"What kind of situation is this?"
Li Chong楼 turned to look at the woman on the ground. She was probably relieved to have been saved, as she was now huddled with her knees to her chest, sobbing quietly.
"Hello, are you alright?"
The woman stopped crying when she heard Li Chong楼's greeting and looked up, her eyes full of tears, saying, "Thank you! Thank you!"
Li Chong楼 then inquired about the situation, mainly because he found the man from earlier extremely abnormal. This was the second time he had encountered an abnormal person.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Li Chong楼 had already become vigilant.
"I don't know who he is. I was hiding over there when he accidentally found me."
The woman said, pointing towards a secluded spot.
"But at first, he didn't do anything to me, he just asked if I had seen someone. But..."
The woman seemed to recall something unpleasant, and tears welled up in her eyes again.
But she still insisted on finishing her story: "Then, for some reason, he suddenly attacked me. However, he stopped at a critical moment. That's when I managed to escape and then I met you."
After speaking, the woman stood up and thanked Li Chong楼 sincerely again. Li Chong楼 waved his hand.
"You should go hide first. It's not safe here yet, and you probably can't get out. Hide for now."
The woman was in her thirties, but thanks to good upkeep, she looked no older than twenty-five. She was also dressed very stylishly. Although Li Chong楼 didn't chase after designer brands, he recognized at a glance that the bag she was carrying was worth at least tens of thousands.
Upon hearing Li Chong楼's words, the woman suddenly grabbed his arm.
"Can I follow you? No, can you protect me first? I can give you money, not just money, anything you want, just ask. I'll give you anything I can!"
The woman was not only beautiful with fair skin, but her figure was also S-shaped. If it were someone else, they would likely find it difficult to refuse her request.
But Li Chong楼 directly shook his head. "I'm sorry, friend, I have other things to do."
In fact, he refused for her own good. After all, the people around him were on a different level. If anything were to happen, it would be difficult for him to look after her.
He already had Ah Niu and Green Bull to protect, and adding one more would be too much. Moreover, even if he could save her now, what about later?
After all, according to Lin Qianqian's earlier account, the number of people stranded inside was unconfirmed, but it was at least not less than a hundred. While Li Chong楼 was kind-hearted, he was not a saint, and the current situation was not enough to make him undertake such actions.
The woman seemed surprised by Li Chong楼's straightforward refusal and stood frozen for a moment.
Then, a voice suddenly came from beside them.
"How about I protect you? I don't ask for much, just one of your companies."
Both of them subconsciously turned to look. The speaker was Luo Feng.
Li Chong楼 had long noticed his presence but had not paid attention as he seemed to have no other intentions.
Now that he was actively approaching, Li Chong楼 couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"
At the same time, he noticed the woman's expression change several times.
"You know me?"
They both asked almost simultaneously. However, Luo Feng did not answer Li Chong楼's question. Instead, he smiled at the woman and said, "The esteemed CEO of Jingwei Group. How many people in Shangjing don't know you? Right, Miss Deng."
Miss Deng. Upon hearing these words, Deng En's expression changed again, as this undoubtedly indicated that the person had indeed recognized her identity.
Therefore, Deng En quickly refused, "I'm sorry, I only need this young man's help."
Luo Feng smiled slightly. "What, am I not handsome enough?"
Hearing this, Li Chong楼 suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to put on his mask when he left...
Deng En's expression changed again.
"Who are you? What are you talking about!"
Deng En instinctively used her usual commanding tone. Indeed, Li Chong楼 could clearly sense a subtle aura of authority. Unfortunately, the two people standing in front of her were not ordinary. Her tactic was completely ineffective against them.
Luo Feng's expression remained unchanged, and he calmly said, "Who I am is not important, but I'm telling you, you only have one chance. Perhaps you haven't realized the current situation yet.贞洁 (Zhenjie), do you know how many people have died here?"
Luo Feng was one of the first outsiders to enter the international airport. Later, after escaping Aunt Hong's entanglement, he had returned to the secret passage once. By then, the people inside had already been killed by someone else.
Therefore, he was very aware of the situation at the airport, and his words were not an exaggeration.
His words reminded Deng En of the encounter she had just experienced.
However, Deng En still did not agree to Luo Feng's terms and turned to look at Li Chong楼.
"My friend, you heard what he said, right? Although I'm not extremely powerful in Shangjing, I do have some capabilities. Believe me, as long as you agree to protect me out, money is not a problem."
Li Chong楼 looked at Deng En's sincere gaze and inwardly grumbled, "But the problem is, I don't need money right now."
Or rather, Li Chong楼 did need money, but at this particular juncture, money was indeed of little use to him.
