"I can confirm that Jiang Yeyue is in this building."
After reuniting with Bai Xiying, Lin Xingzhu said this with certainty.
Bai Xiying's gaze fell on the earring Lin Xingzhu was holding, and she understood.
"I'm not too sure about Xie Xuejie," Bai Xiying said calmly, "but I just checked the recent few floors and didn't find anything unusual."
Using the twenty-fifth floor as a reference, Bai Xiying had roughly circled from the twenty-eighth floor down to the nineteenth. The design and layout on each floor were exactly the same, and she couldn't tell if there was any difference from the floors below nineteen.
"I want to check the eighteenth floor," Lin Xingzhu said.
Bai Xiying wasn't surprised by Lin Xingzhu's suggestion; in fact, she was inclined to do the same.
"The elevator doesn't have a route that can take us there, but I think that even if they block the stairway entrance, they wouldn't completely control the emergency exit stairs."
Everyone coming here to consume is either rich or influential. The elevators might be specially designed to prevent people from reaching areas the building owner wants to keep off-limits, but they must leave necessary escape routes open.
Because if something unexpected happened, it would bring a lot of trouble to the owner of this underground kingdom.
Bai Xiying agreed: "Then shall we go now?"
Without hesitation, the two opened the door to their room and went out again.
They didn't deliberately avoid the surveillance cameras, following the only green path in the pure white space toward the safety exit. Lin Xingzhu stepped forward to push it open, but it was locked.
Lin Xingzhu felt a bit impatient, but fortunately, she was prepared when she came. When she pulled out a piece of wire from a hidden pocket, Bai Xiying was taken aback.
"I had no idea you had this skill!"
Without stopping her movements, Lin Xingzhu recalled, "I got the idea from the last time you got into trouble."
It turned out that carrying a piece of wire was really useful.
The door was pushed open, and they descended the stairs.
When they reached the eighteenth floor, it was no surprise that the connecting entrance was also locked.
Just as Lin Xingzhu bent down to replicate her earlier actions, she suddenly froze.
There were noisy footsteps coming from the corridor inside.
They sounded frantic, as if someone was being chased.
