Why it never ends

Chapter 392
In an uncontrollable tremor, Agnes pulled the trigger, but Hesta was close at hand and grabbed her wrist.

Agnes let out low growls of frustration one after another. She shot continuously towards the ceiling of the prop room in vain. Some couldn't stand still, and Hesta caught the opportunity and fell to the ground.

Hesta kicked her pistol over, and the silver Beretta slid quickly around the corner.

"This is the pistol I loaded Meyer himself," Hesta said angrily, "You pointed it at me!?"

Although Agnes's face was pinned to the ground, she kept her eyes fixed on the fallen weapon in the distance.

"You...why are you..."

"Why do I react so fast? Or is it so strong?" Hesta pressed Agnes's back with her whole body weight, and she cut her arms backwards, breathing violently. Fighting against any opponent, you just want to sneak attack me, you...and Gobelin...don't you look down on Mercury Needle too much!"

"let me go!"

"I can kill you right now! Believe it or not, your Mr. Gobelin, who is always thinking carefully, must have prepared a second plan for your death—"

Before the words fell, gunshots came from the theater.

Both Hesta and Agnes were taken aback.

The gunshots quickly became intense in a short period of time, reminiscent of the hail of bullets in the wild, and then the men screamed in horror, and then stopped abruptly at a certain moment, and the gunshots began to become sparse .

Hesta quickly realized that something was wrong—Rico didn't come back at this moment, he must have been dragged outside.

There was a sound of footsteps in the background, and another team broke in.

"Is anyone there?" A masculine male voice asked.

Agnes screamed, "Here she is!"

For a moment, Hesta heard the faint sound of the gun stock rubbing against his clothes, which usually means that someone raised a gun, and the person coming must be Gobelin's reinforcements. However, at this moment, apart from the Beretta pistol in the distance, Hesta There are few other weapons on her body - right now she lacks fine motor skills, and high-precision shooting is almost impossible.

Agnes began to struggle frantically, and the arrival of reinforcements gave her infinite strength.

"Let me go... let me go!!"

Hesta suddenly let go, and Agnes immediately rolled to the side, and quickly got up and ran out—until a bullet hit her footsteps, she slammed to the brakes.

"I'm Agnes—"

"Don't move!"

Hesta finally saw the armed men, who were obviously confirming the situation in the prop room.

"Who else is in there?"

"It's just the two of us!" Agnes raised her hands, her tone urgent, "Who sent you here?"

No one answered her, there were whispers among the visitors, and the guns were always aimed at the room.

"Where are the others?" asked the man standing at the front.

During the brief confrontation, a trace of ominousness surfaced in Agnes's heart, and her expression froze for a moment: "...what else?"

"...Get out of the way!" When the next round of gunshots rang out, Hesta turned over and fled behind the metal box in the distance. She held her breath and tried to enter the bullet time, but the bulkiness of her body never disappeared.

She heard bullets whizzing past her ears, and Agnes not far away slowly leaned back, a blood red slowly staining her right shoulder.

The current situation of being helpless to fight back has not been experienced in many years. The shattered shrapnel is splashed from the walls and various solid surfaces, and sparks are everywhere in the dark room. scratched to varying degrees.Seeing that the bullet directly penetrated the metal box behind which she originally wanted to hide, Hesta could only lie down on the spot and gritted her teeth, praying that the shooting angle of these people would not go down any further.

Following another loud bang, a light blue light beam suddenly fell from above, and someone directly smashed through the wooden wall between the front desk and the backstage.

A dark shadow fell in front of Hesta.

Hesta straightened up in shock, "You came too late, Li—"

Before she finished speaking, she quickly stopped talking - it was not Li Ke who came.

The black shadow in front of him was frighteningly tall, and its slender figure was like a marionette being picked up, standing between Hesta and the armed team outside the door in a strange posture.

Hesta smelled a strong smell of blood, mixed with the smell of gunpowder, and together with the faint light in front of him, outlined the outline of the person in front of him.

The man in black stood up straight, he let go of his ten fingers, and the bullets caught by it fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Mercury needles...it's mercury needles!"

The armed forces outside the door reacted and began to retreat.

The man in black turned around at this moment and tilted his head towards Hesta who was squatting on the ground.

Hesta tried to stand, but after the previous fright, she felt the strength in her thighs go weak.

The man in black stretched out his hand to Hesta, but Hesta didn't accept it.

She looked at the person in front of her vigilantly, "... who are you?"

The room was silent.

"Jane—!" Li Ke's panicked voice moved from far to near. After a loud impact, another big hole appeared on the wooden wall of the prop room. Almost at the same time, the man in black retracted his hand. , facing Hesta and exited the props room.

Outside the prop room, the team that hadn't had time to evacuate backstage completely fell silent after a few sporadic screams.

"Are you injured?" Lico helped Hesta stand up, "Did they hit you?"

"...No, but if you come later, you won't be sure...Did you see that person just now, who is that?"

"I don't know!" Lico carried Hesta into his arms and walked out, "I guess it is the 'chelate' on the ship... Also, you are right, the second floor of the theater is full of gunmen, everyone Ready to go..."

"Is it all resolved?"

"Yes, they are all dead...but I didn't do it."

"...Is it also the person who did it just now?"

"Ah."

Hesta pondered for a moment, "Where's Anna?"

"I hid her somewhere safe..."

When passing by Agnes, Rico's footsteps slowed down briefly.Agnes, who had lost blood, was lying on her side on the ground, her face was pale from the severe tearing pain near her shoulder, but she still struggled to raise her head.

"Don't worry about it," Hesta whispered, "This person won't die for a while."

"I won't be grateful to you...even if you...let me go now..."

Li Ke looked down at her shoulder, frowned and said, "I'll come back later, don't move around."

Agnes gritted her teeth and looked at the two leaving backs with complicated eyes.

After leaving the props room, Hesta and Rico were stunned by the situation outside—the exits on both sides of the backstage were full of corpses, and the men still held their guns, but their hearts were all pulled out and thrown on the ground. The not-so-large pitch-black room looked like a closed slaughterhouse, and the ground had already flowed into rivers of blood.
