Chapter 489 - Dubious Scene (1/2)

Bang!

In that moment, Kevin kicked the man's arm. The gun was aimed to the side, hitting the wall not far from Kanae. Even though Kanae could see the bullet, she didn't try to move from her position for she knew that it wouldn't hit her. Her arm continued to search for the gun.

It didn't take a long time before her finger touched something cold.

It was the gun on his pocket. Taking it out, she aimed at the man on the very back. Even though in front of her Kevin was fighting with the others, Kanae has the confidence that she would be able to shoot that man. Besides, her right arm would be enough to shoot him.

Bang!

Passing through the other man, the bullet directly hit the man's head, killing him instantly. At the same time, Kevin dealt the blow to the other man, sending them unconscious.

He looked at the fallen man at the back before looking at Kanae. His pupil showed strange light, but he didn't say anything about Kanae's ability. ”Let's go down.”

”Okay.”

Throwing the gun away, Kanae continued the journey back down. Kevin already gripped her hand again without saying anything. His silent made her felt curious. Will he ask her about the shoot from before or not?

However, it didn't seem that he would do that.

Taking his phone out, Kevin made a call. ”Neo, how's the situation on the first floor?”

”I'm evacuating all of them out. Boss, are you alright? Mike wants to go up through the stairs, but the sea of people pouring out makes it impossible.”

”I'm fine,” Kevin answered. ”Just focus on the employees, I'll come out in a while.”

”Yes, Boss.”

In a matter of minutes, they already reached the first floor. By now, the people already got out, making it empty.

”We'll be safe in a while.”

”Yes.”

However, at the same time, an explosion occurred once more, sending the building into a shook once more. The ground was shaking so terribly as they could hear the scream of the female employees from outside.

Seeing the stairs above him nearly collapsed, Kevin quickly pulled Kanae out of the place. He pushed her to the wall outside the staircase and used his own body to shield her.

”Kevin!” Kanae was startled.

”It's fine.”

Kanae could see the man's arm now that they were placed right beside her head. They were filled with scratches and burns from the explosion and fight just now. Raising her own hand, she placed it on Kevin's shoulder, pulling him closer. When he had come close enough, she placed her hand on top of his head. Because of the difference in height, her action caused Kevin to bend down slightly.

Kevin's brain short circuited from the close proximity he had with Kanae. They might have gotten closer all these times, but it didn't mean that they were this close. He could see her feature very clear from this distance.
