Hattie who had made her way through the smoke and fire of war had many wounds on her body, and her fair face was stained with blood and dust.
Hattie stood outside the control room, wiped her face fiercely with her hand, clenched the gun in her hand, and pushed open the door to walk in.
Deacon stood in front of the black surveillance screen, playing with a green urn in his hand. When he heard a sound, he looked up.
Hattie's gaze was fixed on the urn in his hand, her eyes filled with red blood vessels.
Deacon grinned maliciously. "Listen, little lamb, throw away everything you have hidden on your body right now, or your mother won't rest in peace..."
Hattie trembled, clenched her fists, and threw the mechanism hidden in her hand onto the ground.
Deacon sneered, opened the lid of the urn, and said, "Don't make me say it a third time!"
Hattie looked at the wobbly urn, her whole body became frightened, and she hurriedly took out all the remaining mechanisms from her clothes and threw them onto the ground.
Seeing that she had obediently complied, Deacon no longer concealed the sticky malice in his eyes. He casually picked up the urn and walked step by step towards Hattie.
"Listen, little lamb, from now on, keep your mouth shut. If you dare to make any noise..."
Hattie was still young and could not understand the malice flowing in the man's eyes. It was just his gaze that made her extremely uncomfortable.
She stared at the urn in the man's hand and said, "If you dare to smash my mother's urn, I will definitely tear you apart!"
Deacon sneered.
The people brought by Fraser had surrounded the hospital, and many of them had been killed here. Without a hostage, he might not be able to leave here.
But with this girl, everything would be different.
Deacon stood in front of Hattie, raised his hand, and was about to touch Hattie's face when a bullet suddenly shot out from the doorway and hit the hand that held the urn.
Deacon screamed in pain, and the urn fell from his hand.
During this gap, Hattie suddenly pounced and grabbed the thing tightly before the ashes fell into the urn.
Then she rolled to the side.
Deacon's face turned pale as he looked up and saw Ache helping Hattie up. No wonder Manny went crazy with anger. Seeing this scene, Deacon was also angry.
A child who had been obedient for more than ten years and treated as a tool to be used at will caught everyone off guard and took them by surprise.
Fifty percent of the responsibility for Manny's plan's failure was due to Ache's unexpected "betrayal".
It was hard to imagine that a woman like Manny could give birth to such a son.
Is it true that extreme conditions breed the opposite result?
At this point, Deacon suddenly raised his gun and aimed at Ache and Hattie, firing wildly.
Ache had just helped Hattie up when a barrage of bullets flew towards them.
He had no agility or speed to dodge, and in that instant, he instinctively reached out and used his body to shield Hattie.
Hattie opened her eyes wide and let out a miserable scream.
As Ache was about to die at Deacon's hand, a powerful gust of wind suddenly came from outside the door, and Ache and Hattie felt something suddenly appear in front of them, blocking all the bullets.
After a series of loud bangs and a clanging sound, the scene fell into a dead silence.
Hattie looked up and saw a steel plate falling in front of her.
Such dilapidated things were everywhere in the messy corridor, as if they had been kicked to her feet by someone.
