You Hit My Heart by Kylie Stanford

Chapter 1829: Sacrificing Herself

The long ten minutes felt like a century, so long that every breath was unforgettable.

Whether it was Anderson inside the activity center or Joyce and Luther outside, they felt every second was agonizing.

By now, the sky had turned completely dark, with only a few sporadic street lights emitting dim light. The rest of the place was almost pitch black, making it difficult to see anything. The immense darkness resembled a black hole, devouring all fear.

Zhao commanded the lighting equipment to be set up, illuminating the surroundings with bright light.

As soon as the time came, the doors of the activity center opened. Several hostages appeared, and the black-clad individuals were highly professional, hiding behind the hostages and keeping their fatal parts concealed.

At this moment, Zhao shouted through a megaphone, "Begin!"

It was the predetermined signal.

The black-clad individuals started moving forward, pushing the hostages along.

As the hostages were gradually released, Anderson heard the commotion outside and recognized the signal.

He said to Fair, "Let's make our move."

Fair nodded.

Inside the hall, everyone's attention was focused on the release of the hostages, and no one would pay attention to the restroom. They quietly opened the door of the utility cabinet and crawled out from inside.

The entrance to the ventilation duct was conveniently located above the utility cabinet.

Anderson was agile and quickly climbed to the top of the cabinet. Compared to him, Fair had some difficulty climbing up. She was wearing an elegant lady's skirt, so she couldn't spread her legs too wide. After a few attempts, she almost slipped down. Fortunately, Anderson caught her in time.
