Amidst the chaos, a cold voice rang out. “Cwith me. Evacuate from the secret passage.”
Colin had a stormy expression. “They didn’t attack out of nowhere. This is a planned assault. They might be waiting for us at the end of the passage. Who’s able to evade all of our security cameras and find our location?”

“It’s too late for words now. I’ll lead a team to attract their attention. The rest of you escape while I keep them occupied.”
“Leo!”
Colin stopped in his tracks. His face was calm under the mask, but his voice was laced with bloodlust. “I don’t have to be responsible for the murders I commit with this identity, right?”
“There’s no need for that. We don’t need to confront them. Take the drug and leave with the others.”
“I’m sorry, boss, but I’ll have to defy you on this.”

“I need to kill him. Giveten seconds.”

The explosions kept going off.
Brent said to Ethan, “It’s dangerous here. Let’s retreat.”
The bombs would not discriminate against their targets. Ethan couldn’t afford to stay here any longer. Ethan and company quickly retreated, leaving the professionals to do their jobs defusing the bombs.
The group of people around Ethan was smaller. It was the best chance to take him out.
