Chapter 14 Life and Death
As soon as Ji Ling pulled the hanging bag behind the door, he heard a deep and powerful voice from the earphone: "Run!"

It was Han Chen's voice.He glanced at his phone and spoke out crisply.

Ji Ling immediately pulled down the doorknob, but for some reason, she looked back - a man wearing a hat and a mask whose face could not be seen clearly stood at the corner of the bedroom, half of his body was exposed, and he slowly raised his head.

Ji Ling's scalp was numb.

The next second, Xu Xing shouted in a panic: "Lingling, what are you doing standing there, run away?!"

Then she ran to the stairs in a hurry, ran down a few steps before remembering to call for help, and started shouting again: "Help, is there anyone, come quickly!"

As soon as he shouted a few times, he heard heavy and powerful footsteps, and immediately ran down even more desperately.

The steps on the 21st floor are as far away as life and death.

The emergency passage in Ji Ling's apartment uses touch lights instead of voice-activated lights, and the stairwell is dimly lit. Xu Xing can only listen to her panting and footsteps and is anxious. Chen's arm exerted force unconsciously.

Han Chen held the steering wheel, lowered his head and glanced, his lips were slightly pursed, but he didn't say anything.

18th floor

15th floor

The extreme fear and strenuous exercise made Ji Ling's legs weaker and weaker. He had lost his slippers somewhere, and his ankle was in severe pain. He sprained from jumping down several steps in a hurry just now.

Suddenly, she stuck.

The clothes are caught by something.

She couldn't see anything in the darkness, she turned around and pulled hard but couldn't stop pulling, the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer.She raised her head in despair, and in the earphones was Xu Xing's crying urging: "Lingling, run away..."

Ji Ling panted a few times, pulled the hem of his clothes up, and took off his clothes.She didn't know how many steps she took in one step, and she even rushed directly to the wall with the huge inertia, which made her grunt, but she didn't dare to stop, and continued to rush down.

The people behind were chasing more and more closely, and she ran down entirely with perseverance, "Help, come, come, come, help me!"

She couldn't shout anymore, her voice was like a bellows, and the sound of "huchi" and "huchi" in the corridor was terribly clear.

Time passed by, and I didn't know how many steps I ran down in the dark, and finally the sign of the first floor appeared in front of my eyes.

Ji Ling supported the handrail and smiled, but his body suddenly went limp without warning, and he rolled down the stairs.

"Ji Ling?!" Xu Xing didn't know what happened over there, only heard the sound of rolling down, and was very anxious: "What's wrong with you? Talk?!"

No sound.

Xu Xing looked at the phone, and his breath became stagnant.It shows: call time 53 minutes - call hung up? !

"...Han Chen!" Xu Xing cried out.

Han Chen glanced at the traffic police behind him who issued a warning, a dark color flashed in his eyes, his fingertips holding the steering wheel turned slightly white, he stepped on the accelerator to the end, and accelerated again.The car made several ingenious direction changes and overtook several cars in a few seconds.

After Ji Ling fell, she no longer had the strength to get up, her whole head was dizzy, and the cold sweat that almost drenched her clothes was chilly, but the trembling hairs all over her body reminded her - it was only one step away, hurry up!
She turned over, stepped hard, moved towards the door, and tried to reach for it.

Suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed her ankle.

She heard the man's panting breath and cold voice, with deep malice: "I got you!"

Immediately, Ji Ling felt his head was lifted heavily and hit the ground hard.

There was darkness in front of her eyes, but she saw the light in a daze.

"Why?" she murmured.

why her?
She is no longer conscious.
