My Beauty Variety: Starting from Banshee Town

The steel cables atop the elevator rattled and threatened to snap.

But the last person left stood at the very back, with his hands pressed tightly against the wall of the elevator.

Tears flowed down, blurring the eye shadow.

The short-haired woman just pursed her lips and kept shaking her head.

"Believe me."

Ethan stretched out his hand and gritted his teeth and said, "Give me your hand, you will definitely survive."

"No." The woman felt the slowly shaking elevator and cried out, "I can't move, I can't control my feet."

Damn, Ethan cursed secretly.

Some people are like this. In a state of extreme panic, their bodies will lose control.

At this time, all she needs is a little stimulation.

After narrowing his eyes, Ethan decisively retracted his hand and pressed it on the handle of the gun.

"don't want."

When Eileen saw this, she hurriedly shouted softly. She quickly supported the elevator and turned over to climb up regardless of the danger.

This movement made the elevator vibrate slightly.

"Eileen."

Ethan and Rusek were so frightened that they were covered in white hair and sweat, and they shouted anxiously.

"It's okay, trust me."

Erin replied, she squatted in the elevator and looked at the people inside.

Now she realized the fear in the hearts of these people. This feeling of falling into the abyss at any time made her throat feel thirsty.

"rest assured."

She stretched out her hand to the middle-aged woman, and her voice was like wood being scraped: "I'm with you, let's go, I'll take you to live."

The dozen or so people outside were all watching this scene with clenched fists.

In the quiet scene, only the whine of the steel cable could be heard. The weight was far beyond the weight it should bear, making it whine continuously.

Looking at Irene's sincere eyes, the woman inside took courage.

Her body trembled and she slowly stretched out her hand.

Erin grabbed her hand suddenly, pulled it to her body, and then fell back.

"Boom."

A scalp-numbing voice sounded.

Something broke!

Erin hugged the woman with one arm and felt her body floating upwards. She closed her eyes and stretched her other hand back with endless hope.

"Snapped."

A big hand held it firmly.

The next moment, Erin felt that she was flying into the sky.

"bump."

The three of them fell backward together, rolling over the ground like a gourd.

"Stab it."

The elevator is like a knife, closing with great force.

With sparks, it fell all the way down.

Four or five seconds later, a loud bang came from below.

This sound, like a soul-reviving bell, woke up everyone present. Regardless of whether they recognized him or not, and regardless of whether they had any grudges in the past, they found the nearest person and those around them and hugged each other tightly.

Cheers and cries of pain echoed through the twenty-ninth floor.

Lan Cheng heard the sound and came looking for him. When he saw the crowd hugging each other excitedly, his heart dropped.

The whole person collapsed on the ground and laughed happily.

"never mind."

Ethan patted Eileen who was strangling him tightly, and said helplessly: "If you try harder, you will strangle me to death."

"asshole."

Erin let go of her hand, sniffed, and hit Ethan's chest hard: "I knew you would be able to pull me out!"

With a bright smile on her face, she tugged Ethan's arm hard, making the latter grin.

"Shet."

Rusek, who was so frightened by the scene just now that he fell to the ground, also stood up happily. He walked over with a smile and stretched out his arms.

Under his pull, the two stood up.

The three people, holding each other's shoulders and hugging each other, were able to successfully save more than a dozen people. At this time, their hearts were filled with joy.

"Thanks."

An old black man in a high-end suit came over, opened his hands, and hugged the three of them together gratefully: "Thank you!"

The hugging crowd keeps getting bigger.

When Hank and Antonio came looking for them, they saw a large group of people huddled together. They immediately stopped and let out a heavy breath.

"Click."

Ethan sat on the ground leaning against the wall, playing with the lighter in his hand and slowly blowing out a puff of smoke.

"You shouldn't have done that just now."

He turned his head and stared at Eileen: "It's too stupid. Saving others must be based on your own safety."

"Yes, it's stupid." Erin nodded, her eyes brightening: "But, do we really want to watch her die like this in front of us?"

"Even if you have the chance, you won't give it a try?"

"I only know that if I can do something but don't do it and just watch her fall to death in front of me, then I will never be able to pass my own test in the future."

Ethan was speechless and shrugged.

Everyone has their own rules of conduct, which is understandable, just follow your heart.

"You were impulsive just now." Irene looked at Ethan and said while chewing a cigarette: "If you shoot and force that person out of the elevator, what awaits you will be suspension and a high probability of sky-high compensation."

"I'm not kidding, this is most likely going to happen."

"I agree." Rusek flicked the ashes of his cigarette and raised his hand: "I hate to say this, but there will always be people who forget that you are saving their lives."

"knew."

Ethan shrugged, smiled and shook his head.

Hank, who was leaning against the wall, listened to these words and his hoarse voice sounded:

"What just happened?"

Those who were rescued, led by other members of the intelligence team, all went downstairs.

Ethan and others stayed on top to rest.

After waving his hand, Ethan told what had just happened. He frowned and looked at Hank: "What is going on? Why did the bomber start early? Isn't there still a few minutes?"

"If we hadn't added a temporary insurance policy, all of these people would have died."

"I want to ask you too." Hank spread his hands and said with a depressed look: "Just as the promised ransom was delivered, there was an explosion above."

"The communication between the negotiators and the bomber has also been interrupted."

"This is three million U.S. dollars. No normal person would give up so suddenly."

"What a coincidence, this person we are facing is not a normal person." Erin chuckled and flicked the cigarette butt away: "If you want to find the answer to this question, you can only ask the bomber."

The smoke filled the air, blocking Ethan's vision.

He pinched the cigarette butt with a sudden force. He was so anxious just now that he never noticed something.

Now that he was free, he finally noticed something unusual.

There was a bright spot of light with an arrow pointing downwards. Looking at the distance, it was right at the elevator shaft.

And it hasn’t moved since just now.

This is not normal, very abnormal.

"The signal in the elevator shaft is not good." Ethan thought of an excuse and raised his head to look at Hank: "The bomber must be within a certain distance if he wants to detonate."

He patted the ground and said decisively:

"That means he must be in this building."

"No way?"

Hank scratched his head and said in confusion: "Everyone in the building has been evacuated. If the bomber is there, he will definitely be discovered."

"Blind spot."

Ethan patiently nodded his head: "There must be a blind spot."

"Contact the security manager and ask about any abnormalities in this building. What happened before, not necessarily today, just a little bit of abnormality will do."

Hank nodded and quickly took out his cell phone.

After a while, he put down the phone, pointed to the intact elevator door next to him, and said in a hoarse voice: "This elevator is broken and has been under maintenance for the past two days."

"The elevator carriage stops on the twenty-fourth floor."

"bump."

Ethan's gun butt hit the ground and he used the force to stand up.

"Let's go."

He held a cigarette in his mouth, put the AR15 on his shoulder, and strode towards the fire stairs. (End of chapter)
