At this moment, the unconscious people in the twenty-second-floor hall not only had their postures changed, but also the number of people was wrong!
According to Chen Fan's estimation, there were at least ten more people in the twenty-second-floor hall at this time!
Could it be that while he was dealing with those mercenaries downstairs, someone had already sneaked in?
Chen Fan was filled with doubt.
So, he remained vigilant towards the extra people and spoke in fluent Japanese.
"Stop pretending, you've all been discovered. If you stand up and speak for yourselves, perhaps I can at least leave you with a complete corpse."
The reason he said this was because Chen Fan sensed their killing intent!
As soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, a bald uncle was the first to get up.
"Baga yaro! Who is this fool who dares to speak such arrogant words in front of me, Yanagida Shinichiro!"
"Souka souka! You dare to be arrogant in front of Lord Shinichiro, your little life is probably too long!"
"..."
Following that, from various corners of the hall, more than a dozen people who looked like trouble crawled up.
This group of people cursed and quickly gathered around the bald man.
From their words and actions, it was clear that this group of people were not good people.
However, Chen Fan really didn't want to look at them directly.
Because the sense of danger he felt when he entered the elevator earlier was not emanating from this group of people at all.
In other words, although these dozen or so people were also radiating killing intent, Chen Fan saw at a glance that they were too weak, so he didn't take them seriously.
The person he came to the twenty-second floor to find was someone else.
However, for the group of people in front of him, they didn't know Chen Fan's intentions.
They were already flexing their muscles and had assumed a fighting stance!
"Pitiful fellows."
Chen Fan looked at the group of people in front of him with pity and said, "No matter where you came from, today, you don't even have the qualifications to be killed by me."
"You, leave."
As soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, these dozen or so people looked at each other in confusion.
What was going on? They were saved just like that?
"Hey, uh... can we really leave?"
After exchanging glances with his companions, the middle-aged bald man asked Chen Fan in surprise.
Chen Fan nodded and said to him, "Before you leave, I don't mind if you confess."
Facing Chen Fan's question, the middle-aged bald man asked suspiciously, "What? You don't mind us confessing what?"
"Confess the reason why you want to kill me," Chen Fan said coldly.
As soon as Chen Fan's words fell, this group of people looked as if their weak spots had been poked, and their faces instantly turned very ugly.
"Hahaha!"
The bald man glanced at Chen Fan again and actually let out a hearty laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Chen Fan was very confused by his sudden action and asked.
"I'm laughing at that old man for being too underestimating the enemy!" the bald man said to Chen Fan, his smile gone.
"Not long ago, an elderly gentleman hired us to kill someone here."
"He told us that if there were corpses piled up like mountains at the entrance of the East Sakura branch, we should go around from the back entrance, come directly to the twenty-second floor, lie down, and pretend to be dead."
"That old gentleman also said that if nothing unexpected happened, a man wearing a baseball cap would soon come up in the elevator. At that time, if we secretly got up and ambushed him, we would be rewarded with ten million."
"However, we stood by the window on the twenty-second floor and witnessed the formidable combat power of the man in the baseball cap, so we didn't want to do it anymore and wanted to run. Unfortunately, the man in the baseball cap had already discovered us first, and all of us, including my brothers, were no match for that man in the baseball cap."
"So, that's all I know. I've confessed."
After explaining the whole story, the bald man spread his arms, indicating that he had not concealed anything.
As for the baseball cap that the bald man was referring to, it was naturally Chen Fan.
After listening to the bald man's words, Chen Fan nodded slightly and asked, "Do you know the old gentleman who hired you?"
"No, he was a stranger. He spoke with a Dongguan accent and was probably not a local," the middle-aged bald man replied to Chen Fan, shaking his head.
Hearing the answer, Chen Fan waved towards the elevator entrance. "Alright, you can leave now."
"Hai! Thank you for sparing our lives!"
The bald man bowed deeply to Chen Fan, with a look of joy at having narrowly escaped death, and along with his dozen or so brothers, they entered the elevator.
"Goodbye..."
As the elevator doors closed, they all waved goodbye to Chen Fan in unison.
But!
Before the elevator doors had completely closed, a cold glint suddenly flashed from within!
In that instant, the deep voices of the bald man and others abruptly ceased!
Chen Fan also turned his head and looked towards the elevator entrance that was filled with the smell of blood.
Thump... thump...
At the same time, the heads of the bald man and others fell neatly into the elevator.
And their headless necks were gushing blood like fountains!
The elevator doors were not affected at all and continued to close slowly.
However, when they were halfway closed, the elevator doors automatically sprang open again.
It looked as if someone was blocking the elevator door.
But at this moment, there was clearly no one in front of the elevator!
"Who?"
Chen Fan immediately became alert, because he realized that the sense of danger he had felt earlier was now getting closer and closer to him!
"Me."
As soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, the answering voice seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible for Chen Fan to determine the other party's exact location.
"Who are you?"
Circulating his qi to protect his body, Chen Fan realized that the enemy today was not simple.
So, after asking coldly, his gaze began to cautiously scan his surroundings.
For Chen Fan, although the enemy he faced had extremely strange methods that made it difficult to find his whereabouts, Chen Fan was now equally certain of one thing.
That is, the enemy must be on the twenty-second floor!
And, most likely near this elevator entrance!
After all, there was a ninjutsu in the Sakura country called invisibility.
Although it was just a trick of deception, in the current dim environment, this kind of ninjutsu was still very advantageous.
Chen Fan knew that if he didn't deal with it cautiously, he could capsize in the gutter.
