"Elevator..." Qiao Yimo swallowed her saliva and forced herself to calm down, trying hard to recall, saying, "It seems to be on the 10th floor.""No, it might be the 11th floor." She was unsure, then recalled again, confirmed, "It’s the 10th floor! When the elevator numbers reached the 10th floor, I heard a rumbling sound inside the elevator shaft, and the display screen on the left side of the elevator stopped at the 10th floor indicators for more than ten seconds before it started moving. After that, the elevator buttons wouldn’t respond."
10th floor...
This hotel has a total of 66 floors, and the 10th floor is definitely not a good number.
Qiao Yimo saw the man’s face change unpredictably before her, holding her breath.
She vaguely felt as though she had gotten involved in something, but she didn’t dare to ask, could only try her best to truthfully say what she knew.
"So, it should be on the 10th floor."
The more she spoke, the more certain she became.
Li Beijue squinted his eyes, now knowing, and said to the hotel manager who hurried over upon hearing the news, "Give me the hotel elevator blueprint!"
The hotel manager wiped his sweat and smiled apologetically, "President Li, what happened?"
Li Beijue didn’t want to say a word to him, just gave him a gaze cold to the bone, and said icily, "Three minutes, I’ll give you three minutes. If I don’t see the elevator blueprint within three minutes, you won’t be needing that hand you first extended!"
The only hand he extended was the left one for wiping sweat.
The hotel manager was so frightened he stiffened all over, his left hand held in mid-air didn’t dare to move.
Did extending his left hand first have any fault...
But the hotel manager didn’t dare to ask, his ears weren’t deaf, and he could understand human speech. He didn’t ask any more nonsense, hardly dared to delay even a second, and hurried to find the elevator blueprint.
Luckily, the blueprint was kept right in the security room, the manager didn’t mind the inside being a mess, quickly found what he needed, and handed it to the man outside the door.
Li Beijue calmed down, started looking at the blueprint.
While looking, he asked the manager standing beside him, "Do you have a key to the elevator shaft?"
"Yes."
"Later, come with me!"
"...Okay, President Li." The hotel manager was completely confused, could only quietly use his eyes to ask Qiao Yimo beside him.
Qiao Yimo also couldn’t tell him what happened, after all, she herself wasn’t particularly sure if Mrs. Li was truly in danger, could only secretly shake her head at the manager.
The hotel manager actually didn’t believe she didn’t know, but due to Li Beijue being here, he dared not pursue the question. Could only hold his breath, intending for a settlement later...
Ten minutes later.
Huo Yi returned with the tools Li Beijue requested.
"Master Jue, are these the ones?"
Li Beijue counted the tools inside, nodded, brought the items, and got in the elevator.
The hotel manager anxiously followed him.
Huo Yi and Qiao Yimo also followed into the elevator.
Si Chen and Huo Leiting were really worried about him being alone, also followed up.
The elevator went directly to the hotel’s top floor.
As soon as the elevator opened.
Li Beijue walked out first, not caring about the line of people following him like a tail, opened the emergency maintenance box beside him, and clipped the nylon rope lock that Huo Yi bought onto it. Then connected the nylon rope’s end to the steel cable in the box with a backup rescue rope set. Wearing a high-beam inspection lamp on his head, taking out bandages, wrapped them twice around his palm, tied on his wrist, and made a dead knot...
