In the dark stairwell, Bai Mo sat on the stairs near the 14th floor, idly reading some oil painting-related magazines on his mobile phone.

He received two messages just over an hour ago.

One was from Lu Wan, asking him to stay put.

The other one was sent by Zeng Hao, saying that Lu Wan knew that he went to buy midnight snacks and was very angry. They were taking action now and asked Bai Mo not to make Lu Wan angry.

Bai Mo didn't realize that he was AWOL, but he chose to follow Zeng Hao's advice. Not to make Lu Wan angry, he naturally listened to Lu Wan's words. Lu Wan asked him to stay put, so he simply waited here.

Waiting here can satisfy Bai Mo's thoughts.

After leaving the wonton stall just now, Bai Mo decided to help Lele. His plan was to wait outside Lele's house and wait for Lele's mother to come back. If Chen Jian fights Lele's mother, he would intervene directly.

I just didn't expect that Lele's mother hadn't come back yet, and Zeng Hao didn't say whether the operation was over. Bai Mo could only wait here for the time being.

At this time, Bai Mo heard slight footsteps. He thought that Lele's mother was finally back, so he stretched.

Just as Bai Mo raised his hands above his head, his movements suddenly stopped.

Footsteps? Footsteps on the stairs? Why doesn't she take the elevator up? If someone deliberately takes the stairs to exercise, they wouldn't exercise at one in the morning, right? And it’s impossible to walk so slowly, right?

After a series of questions flashed through Bai Mo's mind, he instantly realized something was wrong. The other person was clearly worried about turning on the voice-controlled lights in the stairwell.

Bai Mo quickly locked the screen of his phone, stood up slowly, and moved down quietly. His movements were even slower and there was no sound.

There were still four steps to the 13th floor. Bai Mo stopped, turned to the other side, and looked at the entrance of the stairwell on the 13th floor.

A black figure was standing at the entrance of the stairwell, with his back to Bai Mo. He was holding a bag in his hand. The way he held the bag was strange because his hand was in the bag.

This picture was too familiar to Bai Mo, and this action was too familiar to him. Taking advantage of the dim night outside the window, Bai Mo felt that the other person's height and body shape were also too familiar.

It's him? Why is he here? His target is Lelejia?

At this moment, Bai Mo's mind went blank, and the tinnitus seemed to echo throughout the stairwell.

In addition to the tinnitus, Bai Mo also heard his heartbeat beating faster and faster. For the first time, he knew that the sentence "My heart is about to jump out of my throat" was true. The strong feeling of suffocation made Bai Mo forget it at this moment. Take a breath.

Unlike the last time he saw Lu Yajun, Bai Mo even knew that this person was Liang Nan, but this time he saw a serial killer who was committing murder!

Yes!

Liang Nan appeared here at this time, which meant that Lele's mother had been killed elsewhere. He would not go upstairs until he got the key to Lele's house.

He just killed someone...

The unprecedented tension gradually disappeared, and the strong heartbeat continued, but Bai Mo's brain became awake, which was the result of excessive secretion of adrenaline.

At this moment, Bai Mo's hand was still holding the phone. He hid the phone behind his back, unlocked it and called Zeng Hao.

When he was sitting on the stairs just now, he adjusted the brightness of his mobile phone to the lowest level. With Bai Mo's understanding of light, he was sure that he could completely block the light of the mobile phone as long as he put it behind him. The first person in the recent call records was Zeng Hao, Bai Mo lowered his voice directly after making the call.

While doing these actions, Bai Mo looked at the other person carefully. What was most fortunate now was that the murderer hadn't found him yet. In fact, Bai Mo's best choice was to retreat upstairs to contact Zeng Hao, but Bai Mo knew that he retreated upstairs to fight. Lele's father was probably killed after the phone call.

Chen Jian is a scumbag, but he is Lele's father after all. No one understands the pain of losing a loved one better than Bai Mo.

If Liang Nan went to open the door, Bai Mo would definitely stop him without hesitation!

At this moment, Liang Nan turned around suddenly, and his eyes between the brim of the hat and the mask locked eyes with Bai Mo. After seeing Bai Mo, the murderer was also stunned.

At the same time, Bai Mo's cell phone vibrated slightly, and he knew that the call was connected, but unfortunately he was also discovered by Liang Nan.

"Liang Nan!" Bai Mo yelled, shocking Liang Nan and also informing Zeng Hao on the other side of the phone.

The voice-activated lights in the stairwells and corridors also lit up because of Bai Mo's voice.

Liang Nan came to his senses instantly, turned around and rushed downstairs. Bai Mo was about to give chase, but saw Liang Nan, who had just run down four or five steps, turned around again and rushed towards Bai Mo.

Bai Mo stood higher than Liang Nan. He kicked Liang Nan who was rushing towards him. The bag in Liang Nan's hand fell to the ground, and a blood-stained ax appeared in his hand.

Seeing Liang Nan preparing to swing the axe, Bai Mo quickly retracted his legs and retreated into the corridor. At this moment, he suddenly had an idea and stretched one hand to his lower back, as if he was about to draw a gun on TV.

Liang Nan was indeed as witty as Lu Wan analyzed. He also realized that Bai Mo was about to draw his gun, waved the ax in the air twice and rushed upstairs.

Bai Mo also understood why Liang Nan ran upstairs. Liang Nan thought he was surrounded. He felt that someone was surrounding him downstairs, so he chose to run upstairs.

Bai Mo's mind became clearer and clearer. He whispered into his mobile phone: "Liang Nan is escaping to the 13th floor or above in Building 8 of the community next to Yihu Community."

Because Bai Mo had turned the volume to the lowest level in advance, he couldn't hear Zeng Hao's voice without putting the receiver to his ear. Bai Mo had no intention of listening. There was only one voice in his mind - catch up with him!

Taking back his cell phone, Bai Mo rushed upstairs. The sound of the two people's hurried footsteps echoed in the stairwell, which also pointed the direction for Bai Mo and made him sure that Liang Nan was running towards the rooftop.

This building has 20 floors. When Bai Mo came to the corner of the stairs on the 19th floor, a smell of blood suddenly stimulated Bai Mo's sense of smell. At the same time, a black shadow flashed past.

Bai Mo quickly tilted his head back, and the ax slipped from where his head was previously.

Then Bai Mo felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and he was kicked by Liang Nan. Bai Mo didn't expect that Liang Nan would be so evil here.

Bai Mo grunted and kicked Liang Nan. Bai Mo kicked Liang Nan's calf. Liang Nan lost his center of gravity and fell on the stairs.

Bai Mo took the opportunity to take two steps back and distance himself from Liang Nan, and the last trace of fear in Bai Mo's heart disappeared.

Liang Nan's kick was so different from Lu Yajun's!

It seems that Lu Wan guessed a little wrong. Liang Nan was not a master at all. His murder was achieved through a perfect plan. His own skills were not as good as a street gangster.
