The shining Shoko Toyokawa

It is a veritable flower of sin, yet it is nothing; born sinful,

It is the greed and sin of mankind that condenses into various substances.

And this kind of evil has been going on on this planet for more than two centuries.

Some people hate it, some people love it more than anything else in the world.

Some people make a fortune from it, while others can only make a living by growing it.

Xiangzi lowered her eyes slightly and subconsciously held tightly the bouquet of flowers given to her by the children.

The international community announced a ban on its cultivation 34 years ago.

But until now, this sinful flower still blooms in the poor land.

Her hands clenched tighter and tighter.

Finally, slowly relax.

There is nothing wrong with those ignorant children, and there is nothing wrong with Aiyin who acts like a child. They are the future of mankind.

"This flower is infant essence," Xia Ya gently pulled out the purple flower in the center, her voice gentle and clear, like a kindergarten teacher. "It's an important medicinal ingredient, but it's also the cause of countless deaths and ruin. No matter what, don't touch it."

After saying that, she stared at the confused Aine seriously, and only looked away when the pink-haired girl nodded belatedly.

He tore up the purple flower and threw it into the trash can next to the bed.

Maybe, maybe there will be such a day,

If you want to see this kind of flower again, you can only go to the laboratory or botanical garden.

On that day, parents and elders must have told their children about the harm of this flower.

On that day, there should be no more war...

"I really want to see that day..."

"Sir, you can't enter here."

"Puff, puff,"

At the end of the corridor, the guard's voice suddenly stopped.

Xia Ya rolled over and fell under the bed. She took a deep breath, carefully raised her hand from under the pillow, and took out her pistol.

Then, load the bullet!

Su Shi and Ai Yin, who were still immersed in their own thoughts, drew their guns at the same time and crouched down to find cover subconsciously.

Even the sleeping Sanjiao Chuhua opened his eyes.

The next moment, fierce gunshots rang out in the corridor.

The 'killer' no longer hesitated and shot at the guards.

For a moment, the corridor was in chaos.

The roars of the guards, the hurried footsteps coming from far away, the gunshots, and the screams of people on other floors merged together, and the whole world seemed to have become a fragile and unstable existence.

"Miss!"

Hailing quickly pulled Chuhua and retreated to the corner.

She didn't know when a Scorpion submachine gun with a non-folding stock appeared in her hand.

"Xia Ya, come here quickly!"

Chu Hua recovered from her dazed state. As she spoke, she was so anxious that she wanted to get up and pull Xia Ya.

"boom!"

"Hey~"

A bullet pierced the glass, sending a shower of fragments flying across the white wall.

If Xia Ya hadn't raised her hand and fired a shot, blowing up the light bulb above her head, scaring Chu Hua so much that he squatted on the ground, the bullet would have taken Chu Hua's life.

Although the curtains are drawn, an experienced shooter can still accurately infer where the person is by looking at the shadows on the curtains.

"Don't stand up! The sniper should be in a very dark place. Even if we don't have lights here, it's much brighter than where he's hiding. He might even have night vision goggles."

After shouting this, Xia Ya bent down with difficulty and walked towards Chu Hua and the others.

Modern buildings, in addition to reinforced concrete frames and load-bearing walls, are mostly filled with foam bricks. Such structures are difficult to defend against, not to mention large-caliber sniper rifles, even rifles that fire steel core bullets are difficult to defend against.

The place where Chu Hua and the others were hiding happened to be a reinforced concrete frame.

"What should I do, Xia Ya-san?"

Aine asked anxiously, "Should we rush out to help?"

Xia Ya breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that the wall next to her didn't explode.

If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. If the enemy has "heavy firepower", then they won't alert the enemy by attacking from the corridor.

Instead, they opened fire directly, sending them and the wall into the sky.

The exchange of fire in the corridor continued. Xia Ya shouted to her companions, "Don't be impulsive. We're caught between the guards and the enemy fire. This is the fifth floor. If we climb down from the window, we'll be sniped. If we go out into the corridor, we'll be targets!"

Both sides in the corridor may have fired hundreds of rounds, but the situation remains deadlocked.

In modern warfare, it takes tens of thousands of bullets to kill one person.

Even if you are wearing a bulletproof vest, there are still many loopholes. Anyone who is not anxious to see God will hide behind the bunker.

"boom!"

There was a flash of fire and a violent vibration came from the corridor. It was a grenade explosion!

Only a fool would face you with a gun behind the cover, a smart person would carry an RPG,

But the RPG is too big, both for the guards and the attackers.

But grenades are different. Mainstream offensive grenades will not take up more space than a mobile phone.

As long as you have a bag, you can easily carry dozens of them.

"Boom!" Another grenade exploded.

The place where this explosion occurred was opposite to the previous explosion.

Obviously, both sides had grenades, but they didn't find the right opportunity to throw them.

Logically speaking, if the situation becomes stalemate, the attackers will definitely retreat immediately.

Even though the guards were suppressed for a while, it would only take less than ten minutes for the nearby police to come to support them.

In about 20 minutes, the armed police and even the army in helicopters were already in place.

But the attackers just kept pressing the guards, showing no intention of retreating, nor rushing towards Xia Ya and the others regardless of their lives.

'That's very unusual,'

Xia Ya immediately contacted Korvich through the intercom and shouted before he could say anything, "Find someone to check the rooms directly above and below us on the fourth and sixth floors for explosives."

"We're already doing it, but the fourth and fifth floors are in their hands! They have hostages!" The rough Slavic man's voice was deafening even through the intercom, but with bullets flying everywhere, it was actually convenient. "Fuck it, Shaosimov, I told you to cut off the power, why the hell are you fussing? Blow up the hospital's backup generator!

Quickly eliminate the interference source, let the drone take off, and use the sniper team to hold them back. Don't let them send the hostages to the fifth floor. Shoot warning shots if they dare to move!

MS? Do I look like a Zaku? Damn it, if you can avoid accidentally killing civilians, I'll drive a Zaku for you!

"Bang bang bang,"

The sound of gunfire continued to come from the receiver, and it was obvious that things were not going well on Korvich's side.

At this time, perhaps from the third and seventh floors,

Directly make the surrounding fourth and sixth floors disappear physically,

But not to mention the patients involved, the guard troops would not have the leisure to carry so many explosives.

It's time to make a choice again...

Xia Ya wanted to convince herself that perhaps she was just being overly suspicious. The attackers' movements up and down the floors were just incidental, not a mad blast.

She clearly wanted to think so, but her body still moved on its own.

"Xia Ya-san?"

In the darkness, Aine felt Xia pull out something and prick her thigh.

Then, her breathing became much faster.

When a person is shot or stabbed, he or she does not feel any pain.

Because at this time, the human body will secrete a large amount of adrenaline,

What Xia Ya injected into herself was a dose of adrenaline hidden close to her body.

"I roughly understand the situation. Let me go," Su Shi's voice was calm. Xia Ya couldn't see the expression on her face, but she could feel Su Shi's determination from her voice. "Or, we can go with you."

Hai Ling glanced at her eldest daughter and agreed, "The risks you speculated cannot be ignored."

"More importantly," Chu Hua took over Hai Ling's words, "this floor is now cleared, so the enemy has no hostages. If I were them, I would definitely capture the hostages immediately, but it's been almost 3 minutes and they haven't captured any hostages yet.

If there is no other way, they will definitely take the risk and try it, even if there is a risk of being shot by our hidden snipers."

Chu Hua also had a gun, a small and exquisite pistol, so small that it could be hidden anywhere without looking out of place.

But in a situation like this where you have to shoot at others, such a gun has no advantage at all.

"Ms. Hachiman, can you lend me your gun?"

If the lights were on at this moment, everyone would see that Xia Ya's face was terribly red.

This is not because of nervousness or shyness, but because the heart is pumping blood desperately under the impetus of adrenaline, and the capillaries on the face are congested due to the increase in blood pressure.

After saying this, Xia Ya stretched out her hand before Hai Ling agreed.

It's not that she wants to steal someone's beauty, but what she is going to do next, Glock is not capable of it.

Hailing glanced at Xia Ya. Perhaps she also knew about Xia Ya's feat of 1V7 and killing 5 terrorists.

Without hesitation, he handed the small but powerful Scorpion pistol and the only magazine to Xia Ya.

At this time, Xia Ya held the Scorpion in her right hand and the Glock in her left hand.

She has no dominant hand, or rather, both hands are dominant.

Therefore, it doesn't matter which hand holds which gun.

"Hold the guards on the fifth-floor corridor."

The communication with Korvich has never been interrupted.

The chaotic voices on the other end of the intercom continued. "Cease fire?" Korvich was stunned for a moment before shouting, "Are you kidding? Isabella, calm down..."

"Captain! I'm not here to discuss this with you, I'm here to inform you.

5, 4,"

She counted down while crawling to the door.

Time and her increasingly unstable emotions no longer allowed Xia Ya to discuss matters with others.

"Don't you need our cover?"

Su Shi obviously realized what Xia Ya was going to do.

This approach is too risky and is the kind of option that smart people will immediately pass up.

"2"

Xia Ya slowly shook her head. It wasn't that she was arrogant or afraid of her companions getting hurt.

But in the corridor, in such a narrow space, if she asked others to provide cover fire, it would limit the space she could hide in. Xia Ya's hand moved towards the door lock.

"1!"

"Cease fire!" Korvich's roar came over the intercom.

She flung the door open, raised her hand, and fired fiercely with her Scorpion pistol, suppressing the enemy at the corner of the stairs so that they could not raise their heads.

When the fire stopped, the group stretched out their hands and tentatively fired towards the corridor, but found that the corridor was terribly quiet, without any movement.

At this moment, with an explosion, all the lights in the corridor went out instantly.

This sudden change frightened the four intruders at the corner, who fired several shots into the corridor.
