"Ahhh!!!"
A blood curdling cry escapes Ning Mei's mouth and she falls flat onto the bathroom floor.
The bullet was indeed aimed at her, but it did not penetrate through her skull, instead it grazed her right arm. It wasn't deep, but for someone who has never shot at, the pain was too much for her to take in.
She bites down on her bottom lip and crawls to the bathtub. Forcing herself to sit up from the floor, she leans against the wall and held her arm that had little blood. Her chest heaves heavily as she stares with teary eyes at the still opened door.
Seeing that the mask man had not followed her in, she sighs in relief. Maybe he is only after Director Yeun and is giving her a chance to live.
"Phone⦠Where is my phone?"
She whispers under her breath and frantically search for her phone with her eyes.
"It's here."
