2756 Chapter 2756: one minute left
No matter how small the country was, it was still a palace.
When there were only five minutes left, Jonathan informed his friends in the communicator that they had to start retreating.
Lu Ye frowned.
There was still no news from Los Angeles, which meant that the kid had not come out yet.
Because the surveillance system had malfunctioned, the bodyguards quickly discovered the problem. In order to prevent Los Angeles from being discovered, Lu Ye and Mephistopheles lit fires everywhere to attract the attention of those people.
However, this was not a long-term plan.
If the surveillance system returned to normal, Lu Ye and Mephistopheles might not be able to fly out even if they had wings.
However, for the time being, the two of them were still at ease.
Lu Ye called out through his communicator, “Cheng?”
The few of them acted together, so they shared the same signal channel.
There was no response from Los Angeles, so Mephistopheles naturally understood what was going on.
There were only four minutes left.
Sometimes, when you didn’t care about the time, you would feel that time passed very slowly. Every minute, every second, would be pulled infinitely long.
But sometimes, it was the opposite. In a breath’s time, time passed in an instant.
It was the famous theory of relativity.
Lu Ye and Mephistopheles understood it now.
Lu Ye did not know what Mephistopheles was thinking.
However, he came in with Luo City. Luo city’s leg was still injured. He would never leave his companions alone.
Lu Ye’s relationship with Gu Yan was as strong as gold.
He actually hoped that his companions could get their own love. Even if there was no way in the end, he did not want Luo City to have any regrets in their lives.
Not to mention, it wasn’t the last minute yet, was it?
There were only three minutes left.
Lu Ye said through the communication device, “Mephistopheles, you retreat first.”
Mephistopheles snorted, “Although I don’t have to risk my life for this matter, we came back from Treasure Island together. I always feel a sense of familiarity with Ah Cheng. So, I won’t retreat so cowardly until the last minute.”
Indeed, even if they were caught by the bodyguards and security guards, they might not do anything. At the very least, they would not die immediately.
Moreover, these people who were hiding had a kind of spirit that did not like to take the ordinary path. They would not even blink if they wanted to go to places where their lives were in danger.
Moreover, it was not a dead end yet.
There were only two minutes left.
Lu Ye tried his best to lead everyone in the opposite direction. This way, Luo City wouldn’t be in too much trouble when they retreated.
Mephistopheles was the same.
There was only one more minute left..
Just when Lu Ye decided to go back to the attic to retrieve the people, Luo City’s communication device finally rang.
pAn,D a-n0ve1,c-o-m “Retreat.”
The Voice of Los Angeles was a little strange.
However, at this time, no one could think too much.
After confirming that Los Angeles would retreat, Lu Ye and Mephistopheles retreated from both sides. Before they left, they even thoughtfully knocked out the guards.
This way, no matter which path Los Angeles took, it would be easier for them to retreat.
They had no choice. After all, their friend’s leg was injured.
After the surveillance system returned to normal, Lu Ye and the others had safely returned to the car. Meanwhile, Jonathon had already stepped on the accelerator and sped off.
However..
When they came, there were four people, including Jonathon.
But now… there was one more person.
