Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 748 The Gun Rings

Taking a deep breath, Angela tried her best to keep herself calm. She never expected that she would encounter such a terrible thing just to go to her alma mater for a simple communication about movies.It's a good thing she was inside and not outside the studio's room when the gunshots rang out, or God knows what would have happened.

"Bucket, how's it going outside now? I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm in the room of the film club, I asked them to lock the door and prepare a table, as soon as there is any movement outside, it will be blocked immediately... No no no , No need, just wait for the police to come, don’t take the risk, I’ll be fine...Okay, that’s it, call me immediately if there is any situation.” Angela turned off the phone, then put the phone on her chest for a long time A long mouthful of air.

She turned her head, and despite the continuous bangs and bangs outside, she still gave all the expectant eyes a calm smile: "Don't worry, the police will be here soon, as long as we stay here and don't go out, we must It'll be fine."

As Angela spoke, she looked at the school representative who came with her, the half-bald assistant of the Academic Affairs Office, Mr. Walter Edie.The latter understood the meaning, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said affirmatively: "Students are basically in class at this time, except for physical education and other courses, most of them are in the classroom, and they will definitely make the same moves as you." Decision. It has been several minutes now, and the absence of footsteps outside is the best proof."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Edie." Angela nodded. Although this guy was as flustered and overwhelmed as the students at the beginning, he immediately helped to calm the students after he reacted.

"Are we really going to be okay? Really?" A brown-haired girl asked fearfully at this moment, looking straight at Angela, as if she would cry immediately if she didn't get the answer she wanted. Most of the students around me are like this too.

Although Angela immediately controlled the situation and asked them to call the police, and at the same time contacted her bodyguard, uneasy emotions still flowed among the people.No wonder, after all, they are just a group of sixteen or seventeen-year-old children.

"It'll be fine," Angela tried her best to sound relaxed, "Believe me, compared to what happened to me in North Hollywood five or six years ago, this little gunshot is really nothing."

After hearing this, many people's eyes lit up. Yes, Angela had fought fierce robbers in North Hollywood back then. If she still said that, then nothing would happen!

When people are in a panic, they are more likely to trust others than usual. Coupled with the mentality of blind obedience, the atmosphere in the room is finally much more relaxed.Angela, who contributed to this situation, had an expression of indifference on the surface, but she was smiling wryly in her heart. In North Hollywood, although the gangsters fired fiercely, she was surrounded by police, bodyguards, and FBI agent Mavis. , and more importantly, have a gun in your hand!And now, to put it bluntly, it is a lamb to be slaughtered.

Damn it, if Bucket had been a little more persistent or he hadn't been so stubborn, the situation would be much better now.Angela bit her lip and thought a little anxiously.Even so, she kept reassuring herself that things might not be too bad, as long as everyone didn't go out and wait until the police arrived, as for the others on campus...then I can only pray for God's blessing.How the hell did this happen.

Ten minutes finally passed, and Angela had never spent such a long and restless ten minutes. Although the minute hand on the wall only moved for a short distance, it seemed as if centuries had passed.Fortunately, the gunshots like fried beans have gradually subsided, but occasionally there will be a few more shots. Maybe the shooter is running away?

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door without warning, which shocked everyone in the room.Everyone stood there looking at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to do, and even the original low noises disappeared.

"Who is outside!" Owen asked loudly first, but there was no answer from outside, just knocking on the door constantly.

"If you don't answer, you won't open the door!" Owen continued to shout, but there was still no response from outside.

"Maybe someone was injured, so I can't answer for now." A boy said hesitantly, "Maybe we..."

"Can't open the door!" A girl immediately yelled in horror.

"Only God knows who's out there!" another girl added.

"But what if there are indeed people who need help outside?" Another girl retorted.

The two factions immediately quarreled amidst the knock on the door, and Angela was too busy discussing what to do with Walter and Owen at this time, and she was so overwhelmed that she couldn't take care of it.The reason why Walter was asked to give a general explanation of the situation on campus was because she was worried about this situation, but when the knocking on the door kept ringing, she realized that it was too difficult to make a decision.

"We have to open the door and see." At last the opinions were united by a hasty knock on the door.

Angela, who has not yet discussed the results with Walter and the result, can only smile wryly. Although she wants to wait a little longer, she obviously cannot veto their opinions now, so she has no choice but to take the conversation: "Okay, let me arrange it now! Let's go through the door first." Ask loudly, if you are sure that someone needs help, open the door and let him in, if you are not sure, I will stand by the door and open a crack to have a look, if there is any accident, the person behind the door will immediately close and lock it!"

The people in the room were stunned, and they objected at the same time. Angela turned a deaf ear and went to the door and grabbed the handle: "Okay, that's it, listen to my command! Do as I say!"

Angela's previous appeasement work has established authority among these people, and Tiert, the assistant of the Academic Affairs Office, has no ability, so he has to do what she says.After Owen and the others stood still behind the door, Angela took a deep breath and was about to ask aloud, but the knocking on the door suddenly stopped without warning.

This sudden change made everyone in the room stunned again, and Angela's heart jumped even faster.What happened?The gunman is coming?It seems that there has been no gunfire since just now, could it be...

Angela wanted to call Buckett and others outside to ask about the situation. Although she asked Bucket and the others to stay where they were and wait for the police to come in, she believed that Bucket and the others would not fully implement it. Already near the building.But the knock on the door that stopped made her very uneasy, what if just now...

Gritting her teeth, Angela turned her head: "I'll open the door and go out to have a look. If there is a situation, close the door immediately and leave me alone. I have experience in dealing with such situations. Do you understand?"

Before anyone else could speak, she had already clicked open the door, opened a gap to observe the outside carefully, and then squeezed out.The corridor was so quiet that no one could smell a needle drop. Angela held her breath and looked around. She took two steps outside and wanted to shout, but she woke up and covered her mouth.It seemed that the person who knocked on the door just now had already left. After hesitating for two seconds, she sighed secretly and was about to retreat to the room.

At this moment, a clicking sound came from the corner of the corridor, and in the next second, Angela saw two black muzzles aimed at herself, and at the same time a pair of fierce red eyes.

Angela's head went blank, she froze in place and stared straight at the man with a distorted face in front of her, until the man yelled hoarsely, "Get out of the way!"

Angela shuddered, but the other party didn't shoot immediately? !When she saw the other person's appearance clearly, she immediately understood. Although the face was extremely distorted and ferocious, she still remembered who the other person was, and then thought of the football team player Yan in the room with lightning speed.

"You can't do this." Angela said in a calm tone that surprised herself.

"Get out of the way!" The other party yelled again in a hoarse voice without hearing it, and the muzzle of the gun aimed at her was also trembling slightly.

"I'm sorry, I can't." Angela stared straight at the other party, and then took a deep breath: "Everyone inside listen carefully, lock the door and don't come out!"

Following the shout, Angela slammed the doorknob's hand and slammed the door shut.

"Bastard!" The other party yelled fiercely, like a wounded wild wolf in the wasteland, he slapped Angela away, rushed to the door and kicked it fiercely with several kicks, making a huge bang bang bang sound.

Seeing that the door was blocked and couldn't be kicked open for a while, the frantic gunman turned around and stared at Angela with blood red eyes.Angela, who was pushed aside and hit the wall, managed to regain her senses, and her heart was lifted again immediately.

What happened just now was completely an automatic reaction of her body, her mind was blank all the time, she didn't know why she did that, she only knew that she had to do it.

"You bastard! I knew it! You are with them!" The young man yelled through gritted teeth, waving his guns at Angela, looking crazy as if he was about to pull the trigger at any time.

Calm down, Angie, stay calm, it's going to be all right, it's going to be all right.

"Please calm down, Samson, please calm down first, please?" Angela said in a calm tone. Although her face was a little pale, she still looked at the other party without blinking her eyes, and tried her best to keep her breathing steady.

She slowly raised her hands and spread them slowly: "Look, I won't hurt you."

She looked at each other's blood-red eyes calmly, without any feeling of fear, as if she had entered a certain mode.

"Fuckyou! You don't understand anything! I've had enough! Don't fucking calm me down! I've had enough!" the other man yelled frantically, "Keep the door open! Or I'll kill you!"

"Violence can't solve any problems." Angela raised her hands and said in a soothing tone, "We can talk."

"There's nothing to talk about! Go and call the door open, don't think I dare not kill you!" Samson grabbed Angela's shoulders fiercely, choked her throat and pressed her against the wall, and put a gun The muzzle of the gun rested on her forehead.

Don't panic, Angie, don't panic, he is still sensible, otherwise he would have shot. "You are not such a person, Samson, I just want to help you." Angela said still calmly.

"No one can help me! No one!" Samson snarled and pushed Angela out, brandishing a pistol and yelling, "Do you know what it's like to be huddled in a corner all alone, ignored by no one?! Do you know what it’s like to walk alone on campus, but no one looks at you?! Do you know what it’s like to be used as a sofa toy, bullied, at home or at school, and you can’t escape anywhere?! You What do you know! What do you know, you woman, you high and mighty star!"

"I know!"

"Lie! Lie!"

bang bang bang!Samson waved the pistol furiously and pulled the trigger recklessly. Finally, he still had a little sense and didn't point the gun at Angela. Sparks shot from the floor and ceiling.

Angela's face turned pale again, and her fists were clenched tightly. For a moment, she thought she was going to die, but she still maintained this extraordinary composure when she came back to her senses.

Nat, help me, tell me what the hell he's thinking and how to convince him!

"Indeed, I haven't experienced what you have experienced, but I have also experienced some things." Angela said in the comforting tone she used before, "I think some feelings are the same, that kind of loneliness, unable to deal with People describe the feeling of despair that seems to be abandoned by the whole world, which makes people want to destroy the whole world, right?"

Probably because Angela had said something on his mind, although Samson was still staring at her fiercely and panting heavily, he didn't wave the pistol indiscriminately again.

"I used to... love several people at the same time, and they all loved me at the same time, but they didn't know each other's existence. I wanted to tell them the truth, but I never had the courage. I always thought that they would be with me forever. By my side, so I dragged on and on until they abandoned me." Angela said in a steady voice, as if telling someone else's story, "At that time, I seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, suffering all day long, or using alcohol Anesthetize myself or stay in a daze for a whole day and do nothing. I often fantasize about picking up an automatic rifle and sweeping from one end of the street to the other in my mind. So, I can understand your feelings and the feeling of being suppressed An outburst of despair after a long time."

Samson, who was panting out of breath, showed a mocking smile, which looked particularly terrifying on his distorted face: "It is indeed a rich man, and he can even date several boyfriends at the same time!"

"I didn't say this to show off," Angela looked at him and said quietly, "I just want to make one thing clear, Samson, no matter rich or poor, men or women, there will be times when they cannot extricate themselves from the pain. There will always be times when you are desperate and want to destroy everything. But violence will never solve the problem, it will only destroy others as well as yourself. My grandpa often said to me that if God closes a door for us, he will open another for us. A window, what we have to do is find the open window instead of destroying the whole house."

Although Samson was still staring at Angela, the violent emotion had obviously weakened, and after a long while he let out a giggle: "Someone said that to me a long time ago, but it didn't work, God that shit Just give me a room with no door or window!"

"Really? Really not, or did you forget to look for it?" Angela squeezed her fist lightly, "Samson, is it true that no one cares about you? Someone who told you this is still treating you What did you say? No one really comforted you when you screwed up? The girl next door never smiled at you? Recall carefully, how many details have you overlooked?"

Although Samson looked at Angela with vigilant and defensive eyes, his hands holding the gun were hanging down weakly, his body trembled unconsciously, and his face was not so ferocious and distorted anymore.

"Remember?" Angela, who saw it, put down the last straw, "I told you before that everything will be fine, and bad things won't last forever."

The other party's body trembled more obviously, but he bit his lip tightly and did not speak.

"Put the gun down, okay? The police should be coming, and I can go down with you." Angela finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, only then did she realize that her hands were covered in sweat and her vest was completely soaked. up.

Even so, she continued to maintain her calm appearance: "I promise, if you put down your gun and go out with me, the police will never make it difficult for you, and I will also intercede with the judge."

Samson gritted his teeth, as if a little moved and unwilling, at this moment the voice of the police suddenly rang out: "Don't move! Throw away the gun!"

Several heavily armed policemen rushed up from another staircase far behind Angela, all pointing their guns at this side. The startled Samson almost reflexively raised the gun in his hand , Angela's heart that was so easy to let go was suddenly lifted again.

Damn it, these guys don't come sooner or later, but they come here at this time!Angela was thinking angrily in her heart, and hurriedly raised her hands and shouted loudly: "Please keep calm, he is no longer threatening!"

The policemen turned a deaf ear to it, and just kept yelling to put down their guns, so of course Samson would not put down the weapons in his hands, holding his guns and hiding behind Angela, waving his arms constantly.

idiot!Can't you take a look at the situation? !Angela scolded in her heart.After calling a few times to no avail, she turned around and wanted to continue persuading Samson: "Samson, put down your weapon, please, I think..."

Although she was only stunned for a few seconds, Samson, who was paying attention to her, still noticed something strange, and turned back fiercely with his gun raised.The police who had sneaked over immediately rushed forward, but unfortunately, the original plan to subdue the opponent with one move turned into a tussle of wrestling on the ground.

"Don't resist, Samson, don't resist!" Angela, who was standing still, shouted anxiously, but how could the two twisted together hear it.

The policeman who followed the policeman rushed up immediately, trying to help subdue the mad Samson, and the policeman at the stairway also rushed over, trying to take Angela away, at this moment——

boom!

The gun rang out, and Angela trembled all over, only feeling that something suddenly entered her body from the lower right.She opened her eyes wide and stared blankly at the policemen not far away, their eyes showed a look of horror.

She lowered her head slowly, a bright red was rapidly expanding under her right chest line.

"It's terrible." Angela said softly, and then fell straight backwards.
