Chapter 332: Descending Like A God
After not hearing any footsteps, Yun Xiangxiang’s heart lifted. Fortunately, the other person only stopped for a moment then moved away.
“Don’t move, Eric has arrived.” Song Mian reminded Yun Xiangxiang.
“Young master, Eric is not going to the top floor, he’s…” Song Yao realized that Eric was heading in the wrong direction.
They all thought that Eric was going to the top floor to fetch jewelry, but they didn’t expect him to come to the area where Yun Xiangxiang was.
Song Mian first returned the infrared to normal, and he quickly unlocked the door behind Yun Xiangxiang.
This door was an ordinary coded door without any electronic system. On Yun Xiangxiang’s other side, there was a window at the end of the corridor.
“Ah Mian, why did you restore the infrared’s program?” Yun Xiangxiang had a bad feeling in her guts.
From this angle, she could see the red dot reflected in the diagonally opposite door, which was the infrared beaming to the alarm system.
If Song Mian restored it, it must mean that someone was walking towards her direction. She didn’t think of anyone else besides Eric.
Yun Xiangxiang thought that Eric would go to the top floor, but she didn’t expect that he would come here. If he were to be even a little bit closer, he would find her.
“Don’t move, I have an idea,” Song Mian comforted Yun Xiangxiang.
Yun Xiangxiang knew that Song Mian’s method was to create an accident if Eric did reach this area.
It would lead Eric away, but this method would alert the enemy. Even if they could conceal it from Eric later, the security would be tightened.
If Song Mian failed this time, not only would he fail to warn Eric, it would make Eric look down on Song Mian more.
In fact, he could have come himself. He could have gotten the jewelry way earlier. He brought Yun Xiangxiang for the sake of training her and letting her experience what it felt to be a real thief.
“How long is he going to take?” Yun Xiangxiang glanced at the window beside her, “Could you decipher the alarm system on this window for me in time?”
“It’s too dangerous.” Song Mian disagreed with Yun Xiangxiang doing this.
“Ah Mian, believe in me, okay? Hurry up.” Yun Xiangxiang begged, “I hope you can respect my ideas.”
This sentence was a bit heavy. Song Mian pursed his lips.
“Ah Mian, don’t let me feel that I am just a burden to you.” Yun Xiangxiang continued to whisper.
If the plan failed because of her, she would feel even worse.
She could accept her incompetence, but she could not accept her failure without doing her best.
” Young master, there is still a minute…” The building was huge. There were several alarm system areas in front of it, and here was the end.
It took about four minutes for Eric to get around from there. Song Mian closed his eyes and tapped quickly with his fingertips.
It took almost ten seconds to interfere with the pressure-sensitive alarm system of the glass window, “It is done, you have forty seconds.”
Yun Xiangxiang strode to the window pressing herself against the wall. Fortunately, the window was at a blindspot of the infrared system, so she raised her hand and pushed the window open.
Pressing her hands on the window sill, she jumped up easily and quickly turned around. The height of the twenty-second floor made anyone who glanced below feel dizzy.
Yun Xiangxiang pressed her hands on the window sill without any flutter of emotion, letting herself hang in the air, supporting her whole body with one hand, and closing the window.
This might be difficult for others, but it was not that hard for her, who had acrobatics experience.
Only a few seconds after the window was closed, Eric and his party stood at the corridor entrance, heading straight towards Yun Xiangxiang.
Yun Xiangxiang was separated by a window and had wind blowing on her ear, unable to hear the footsteps. Eric stood outside the door that Yun Xiangxiang stayed before, entering a password and walking in, another few people waiting outside the room.
Song Mian made a phone call and quickly stood up, “I will leave it to you here.”
After speaking, he quickly walked to the side where Yun Xiangxiang was hanging in the air. Song Mian only glanced at it and went to the opposite side.
No matter how powerful Yun Xiangxiang was, it was still a great challenge to maintain such a posture for a long time.
The only good thing was that the window sill was wide enough so that Yun Xiangxiang could support herself with her entire palm.
Eric went in for ten minutes and didn’t come out. This was the archive room, and Eric came to fetch a file.
After he found it, he flipped through it right there. Before he could see the information he wanted, his phone rang.
After the assistant gave it to him, saying that a guest was waiting for him at home, Eric had to take all the documents.
Yun Xiangxiang really couldn’t hold on after hanging for more than ten minutes. She couldn’t help asking, “Ah Mian, are they gone?”
“Ding!” At this moment, there was a clear sound from the top of her head. Yun Xiangxiang raised her head and saw a rope thrown over. It was hooked on steadily to a railing above her.
That place should be designed with a balcony on the top floor. Yun Xiangxiang turned her head and saw Song Mian holding the rope, flying towards her from her opposite direction.
The breeze messed with his loose hair, and the sky full of stars seemed to shine on him instantly.
At that moment, he looked like a god descending from the sky, flying towards her with a ray of light.
The long and powerful arms accurately encircled Yun Xiangxiang’s waist, and forcefully embraced her in his arms and whirled in mid-air.
Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t help screaming in fright. Song Mian leaned down and blocked her lips in time, stopping her instinctive call.
“Open the window.” When she calmed down, Song Mian let her go and whispered to her.
Song Mian grasped onto the rope made of unknown material, strong enough to hold both of their weights, and his other arm wound around her.
Yun Xiangxiang opened the window immediately. Song Mian supported her waist with one hand and boosted her to climb up the window.
After landing, Yun Xiangxiang turned around and stretched out her hand to catch Song Mian. Although Song Mian reached out to her, it was mostly his strength.
As the duo re-entered the corridor, it was already long empty. Song Mian abandoned the rope, swaggering through the infrared zone while hugging Yun Xiangxiang.
She was obviously nervous when she was alone, but when Song Mian was with her, she was bold and didn’t even need to hide.
It was as if they grasped the time points accurately. They walked towards the exclusive elevator, not in a hurry at all.
The exclusive elevator opened directly, and Yun Xiangxiang entered it as the elevator ascended to the highest floor.
On the contrary, there was no patrol at the highest level, but the alarm system was as dense as stepping on landmines.
But Song Mian seemed like he was taking a stroll in the courtyard, not minding the alarm systems at all, holding onto Yun Xiangxiang leisurely. They reached a silver-white door, not triggering any alarms at all.
Song Mian took out a cellophane-like thing from his pocket, stuck it on the fingerprint input, and waited for a minute.
It seemed that Song Yao gave him a signal. He reached out and pressed the transparent paper, and the door opened easily.
