Vinson barged in looking very serious.
Shocked, Arielle stood up. “You…”
“There’s an explosion, hurry up and get out of here!” He grabbed her hand and ran away as fast as he
could
The people at the dressing room were stunned for a second and then scrambled out of the place at
once.
By the time Arielle got out of the dressing room with Vinson, there was chaos everywhere and flames
were seen blazing from the stairwell.
“Gasoline! Someone spilled gasoline!” A staff screamed at the top of his lungs as he ran past the
dressing room.

Before he could answer, his phone rang. It was Carter.
He answered the call. A nervous Carter spoke over the phone. “Vin! Where are you? That dude
escaped, leaving a note behind which says stop wasting effort because it’s doomsday for us.”,
“Okay, make a police report now. There’s an explosion here at Southall Group.”
“What? An explosion? Darn it! It must have been those who helped that dude escape. They knew
you’re there, and.. Are you all right? We re on our way.
“Don’t worry, I’m okay for now. I hang up now.” /Vinson continued running as he updated Arielle, “It’s
not a prank, but an attack. Hurry up
She did not ask further. Holding his hand tightly, she quickened her steps.
When they were about ten meters away from the main entrance, they realized that the crowd stopped
moving. “What’s happening? How do we get out?” Vinson asked fiercely.
Iris approached them, crying breathlessly. “The entrance… It’s locked. None of us can get out of here.
The fire is spreading fast. Nobody knows if there will be more expldsions. Mr. Nightshire, Ms. Sannie,
are we going to die here?”
Arielle released Vinson’s hand and held’Iris hand to comfort her. “Rest assured that we won’t die here.
If the entrance is locked, then break it open!” When there’s a will, there’s a way. Im not going to die
today, not here, not now. She asked-Iris to stay on the spot while Vinson and her squeezed themselves
through the crowd to get to the entrance.
There were a few security guards trying to pry the door open. A few desperate employees even lifted
the stool and smashed it on the glass door.
To their dismay, no matter how hard each person tried, the seemingly fragile glass doors showed no
signs of damage.
One of the security guards even tossed-away the toollin his hand and Jamented hopelessly, “It’s

have all been replaced with A grade tempered glass which is harder than diamond. Even a bomb can’t
break it let alone the chair.” Arielle walked toward the security guard and reprimanded him, “Don’tutter
anything negative! How is this door shut tight? With a lock? If so, pick it.”
Dejected, the guard shook his head. “It’s not so simple. This is a smart door. I’ve tried it a few times at
the security room just now. The smart system has been destroyed and it can’t detect anything. There’s
no way we can open it…”
Vinson interrupted, “Where’s the security room?” .
The guard revered Vinson and pointed at the floor above them without any further ado. “It’s the first
room on the first floor…”

Vinson nodded and informed Arielle, “Someone must have modified the program. Stay here, I’ll go and
take a look.” “No, I’ll go with you!
“Don’t take the risk. Stay here!”
