However, before he received a reply, the phone call ended.
The sound of guns and the screams of the hotel guests echoed over and over again, and the whole hotel became a terrifying hell.
Horrified, Jolin switched off Xu’s phone and pushed her down under the bed. Then he took the risk of rushing outside pretending as if they too had left their rooms.
Then he suddenly rushed back in and hid under the bed as well.
They did not dare to make a sound, so he used his shaking fingers to text Fu Shiyi, telling him what was going on.
Mu Weiwei asked them to hide, but where was she?
If anything happened to her, they would be punished to death by Boss.
But no texts had come back no matter how many he sent to her.
He was so anxious that he cried. For the first time in life, he felt desperate and helpless.
The sound of gunshots was still arising constantly and then came the sound of bombing. The whole building was trembling tremendously.
Then came the sound of footsteps in their room.
Xu covered her mouth, with tears dripping down her face; she did not dare utter a sound.
From the bottom of the bed they could see two pairs of boots, yet they did not dare to utter a sound, especially when they did not know who had come in.
Luckily, those people left after a brief check of the room.
A long while later, it felt as long as a few centuries, another sound of footsteps approached their room from outside.
A voice said that they were the police of F Land.
Jolin climbed out of the bed and gripped the police that were there to rescue them, and spoke to them in English.
“We have one person missing, have you found her?”
“This is her picture. She is a very famous movie star from Hua Land and she is here for the film festival.”
….
The two policemen shook their heads, telling him that they could contact the police office, to see if whomever they were looking for, was among those that were rescued.
Jolin pointed at the bottom of the bed, telling them that there was one more person under the bed.
Then he hurried downstairs to see if his girl was among the rescued.
But she was not and the police officers did not find her either.
He was about to return to the hotel to search more, when the hotel was locked down by the police and he was no longer able to enter.
Jolin was looking for any information for his girl whilst calling Fu Shiyi like crazy.
He just hated himself for not saving the Boss’s number.
Finally, when Fu Shiyi finished doing his program, he answered the call.
“What is it?! Always bothering me!”
Jolin’s tears gushed out when the phone was answered.
“Mu Weiwei is missing, Third Master!”
Fu Shiyi was changing the clothes as he snorted.
“Must I find her for you when your girl is missing…”
“Our hotel was attacked by terrorists. I can’t find her, not anywhere…”
Jolin was shaking and his voice was shivering too.
Fu Shiyi was startled for two seconds. “What… what terror attack?”
“Some gunned men entered the hotel and attacked the people there. They set off a bomb and it has caused a fire. We were not on the same floor when it happened, and I can’t find her now.” Jolin said in tears.
Fu Shiyi was listening, as he saw from the TV on the wall that a terror attack had occurred in the place near the film festival… in F Land.
As he watched the rescued guests from the hotel as well as the smoke-surrounded hotel building, he thought over what Jolin had just said
He suddenly felt that the sky was falling down.
