Currently the government was still controlled by the chinese, these malay militants actually formed a small minority within the military. No matter how refined this ploy was, the battle within this building would never persist for long, strictly speaking it would only take 1 hour. This skyscraper was 40 storeys high, every floor had 3-4 thousand square metres. One full day was not enough to completely search the whole building. If that new prime minister did not react with countermeasures within an hour, then he truly wasn't qualified to hold that appointment.
On the other hand, if the 3 of them fled downwards, there would be only a few escape points. The mastermind behind this terrorism would certainly have people to lock up the access points, and going down there would in turn be more dangerous. To think of this points wasn't difficult, but to be able to consider this in such a tight-locked situation, it showed the qualities of composure, wisdom and courage.
