Chapter 273 - You asked for it. Now die. (1/2)
Motel. This was not a hotel but a motel. The sleazy person at reception tried to charge more than he should, but Luo handled him well. Not like Suyin cares how much they charge, but it's always better to remain low-key and behave like the natives to not attract any unwanted attention.
Though Suyin didn't expect much from the room, to her surprise it was clean; bedding looked neat but had obvious yellow patches. Had just a chair and table in name of the furniture, a fan and a table lamp which she didn't bother to check, and dark curtains covering the view outside. She parted it, satisfied at the clear view of the hospital.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #.-now-die._51747042208302600 for visiting.
The people walking on the road with rifles, and belts of ammunition was an unusual site for her but normal in this country. It's a basic necessity for them. Just like food, water, and air.
She knew this hotel was not a safe place to stay, but the clear view of the hospital was more than anything she wants.
”Why didn't you let me take two rooms?” The question was bothering him. He brushed his finger on his beard and sat down on the bed.
”I'm disguised as a man. Have you seen two men walking in together but take different rooms? Especially when you argued the owner over price for like-- forty-five minutes?”
Luo adjusted the set of his coat and rifle, ”Won't you--”
”I've adjusted in worse in my undercover missions in social services. Sleeping in a dorm of twenty men who used to change clothes in front of me twice a day was one such.” She takes off her long coat and threw it on the bed. ”I'll sleep here, you take the chair.”
He stood, ”I'm going out to bring something to eat, do you want something else?”
”Two pair of clothes that matches with the locals.” Suyin opened the flap of her backpack to get some cash but Luo hesitated. ”Take it. You even pay for the room.”
Luo accepted the cash. ”Don't forget to lock the door,” He knocked at the table in a particular pattern. ”Remember this. I will use this to announce it's me and it's safe to open.” He again knocked at the table in a unique pattern ”This means danger.” before leaving he didn't forget to give her his gun.
After Luo left, she sat down at the window, her head resting at the iron bars, waiting for the broker. The mad woman who lost her family was rooted at her place, waiting for the same broker.

DHUM DHUM DHUM
SHOT SHOT SHOT
Suyin woke up with a jerk, confused, the unfamiliar surrounding, and the bleak darkness was unwelcoming. She searched her pockets for the nano flashlight only to realize her coat was on the bed.
DHUM DHUM DHUM
Her head snapped at the door, someone banging it. Faintly she could hear people screaming, and the sound of gunshots. She ran to get the flashlight or just turn on the lights, but sadly she doesn't know where the hell switchboard was.
Just a minute ago she had closed her eyes, and now when she had opened it, it was pitch dark?
How can she fall asleep while waiting for the broker to step out of the hospital? And where was Luo?
DHUM DHUM DHUM
”OPEN IT.”
This can't be Luo. Definitely not.
”BREAK IT. THEY ARE HERE.”
