Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"There seems to be a fire over there." Laurent looked in the direction of the Norton Simon Museum: "It couldn't be the person you arranged to do it."

"No kidding, that's the Norton Simon Museum. Who dares to set fire to it?"

"Why doesn't that bastard come?"

At this moment, Chen Zhao is also not far from the Norton Simon Museum.

Chen Zhao looked at the Norton Simon Museum from a distance: "Laurent couldn't have set fire to that place, right? This lunatic."

At this moment, the sound of fire trucks came from behind, and Chen Zhao got out of the way to let the fire trucks pass first.

Internationally, it is international practice to give way to fire engines and ambulances.

As long as the road surface allows, you should actively give way to these two.

Chen Zhao parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and watched the fire truck pass by.

However, he saw a man smoking a cigarette through the window of the fire truck. He really didn't look like a firefighter.

The man also saw Chen Zhao standing on the roadside and flicked the cigarette from his hand.

The cigarette butt fell at Chen Zhao's feet.

Chen Zhao walked forward. The place where Laurent asked him to meet was not far from here.

As the fire truck entered the Norton Simon Museum, the security guard on duty shouted: "Put out the fire quickly, put out the fire quickly."

Several heavily armed 'firefighters' got out of the car, but they were not connecting fire pipes, but went straight towards the area that was not on fire.

When they arrived, they found that the glass door of the museum's main exhibition hall was closed.

"Open this door," a firefighter said to the security guard.

"What did you do in here? It's the fire over there."

Xiu——

A bloody flower exploded on the security guard's forehead.

One of the firefighters ripped off the security guard's chest card.

"Take the body away so no one can see it. Let's go in first."

One of them dragged the body to a dark place.

…

Jesse was wearing a firefighting suit, a disinfectant mask on his face, and an oxygen tank on his back.

When she entered the Norton Simon Museum, she discovered that the security guard at the entrance was missing.

There were two fire trucks parked in front, but there were no firefighters.

Just as he was about to move forward, a firefighter emerged from nowhere.

"We'll stay here."

"What?"

"We're here to respond. If the real fire brigade comes, you just open fire."

Jesse was a little confused as to what this meant.

The firefighter glanced at Jesse: "First time?"

Jesse nodded dully.

"Really, who did the boss arrange for us?"

At this moment, fierce gunshots and the sound of bomb explosions came from the main hall.

Several pieces of the floor-to-ceiling glass in the main building were shattered.

Jesse had a vague premonition that something was wrong.

Raisa's voice came from the communication headset in Jesse's ear.

Jesse, are you inside?

With that person still standing next to him, Jesse couldn't speak.

Raisa continued: "I found through internal surveillance that a real group of robbers came to the Norton Simon Museum. If you didn't go in, it's best to leave now, they are killing people inside."

Jesse was shivering all over and sweating continuously.

Is this person next to me a robber?

"Huh? Of the two people at the door, is one of you you?" Raisa discovered the surveillance camera at the door.

At the same time, he also recognized one of the people, it was Jesse.

"The plan of this group of robbers is similar to mine, except that they are more violent and direct. But if I have the ability, I will do the same." Raisa said to herself.

Just then, police sirens sounded outside.

"The police are here so soon." Raisa was a little surprised: "Jesse, you'd better retreat now. I looked at the topographic map of the entire museum. You can find an excuse to enter the main museum."

Jesse glanced at the robber beside him: "I'll go in and inform the boss."

"Go quickly, let them move faster." The robber obviously did not realize that the person next to him was not his companion.

Jesse quickly ran into the main museum, but as soon as he entered the exhibition hall, he saw two corpses on the ground, both of which were security guards whose heads had been shot.

Jesse was startled and was about to turn around and run away.

At this time, Raisa said: "Don't panic. If you go forward and turn right, you will find a toilet."

Just as Jesse was about to follow Raisa's instructions, a large group of people in firefighting suits came over.

"Be careful, they are gangsters, don't show any flaws."

"What's going on? Why are you here?" the robber boss asked.

"There were a lot of police outside."

"Get ready to fight, damn it, why did the police come so fast?" the robber boss said angrily.

At this moment, gunshots and explosions were heard outside.

It was probably the robber outside who was fighting with the police.

"Boss, what should we do?"

"Of course we have to kill them, what else can we do." The robber boss gritted his teeth and said, "We can't let the police reinforce us, we must fight quickly."

A group of robbers all took out their weapons and started walking outside.

Jesse was also dragged out. Several police cars were already in position, and there were probably eight or nine police officers.

The two sides exchanged fire in an instant, and the firepower of the robbers was much stronger than that of the police.

But the police hiding behind the police car are safer than these robbers.

Jesse was so frightened that she squatted on the ground holding her head, but at this moment, a man fell in front of her.

"Take his backpack." The robber boss shouted to Jesse.

Jesse pulled off his backpack and started scurrying around.

"Run inside, don't stay on the battlefield, you don't even have a gun in your hand." Raisa said: "Go back to the exhibition hall and follow the direction I told you."

The battlefield was too chaotic at this time, and no one noticed Jesse escaping. After all, everyone was running away or avoiding bullets.

"There is a skylight in the toilet. Climb up. This skylight can lead to the back of the exhibition hall."

Jesse had never done such a difficult move before, but compared with escaping, climbing up the skylight became less difficult.

Using the sink, Jesse climbed up to the skylight.

Then walk on the raised area on the outer wall of the exhibition hall.

"Where are you now?" Raisa asked, because there is no surveillance here, and Raisa cannot command in real time.

"I crawled out of the skylight and am now on the extension."

"Go left and you will see a lake. Jump into the lake from the second floor without any problems."

Jesse soon discovered that there was an artificial lake next to the exhibition hall. Jesse jumped into the lake without thinking.

"I think I'll be waiting for you at the Domindo Bridge," Raisa said.

Jesse's escape was much easier than expected.

Raisa parked the car by the bridge, and Jesse climbed into the car covered in mud.

Then Raisa drove away in the car.

"It was so scary... I thought I was going to die in there." Jesse said fearfully.

"What is that backpack of yours?" Raisa asked.

"I don't know, let me take a look."
