Mai continued hugging Kate while on guard of her surroundings. She didn't want her big sister to get hurt, so she would fight anybody who dared to touch her, even with the cost of her own life.
The corridor was in complete silence until she heard a footstep reaching from the end of the corridor.
She darted her eyes and became fully guarded. She didn't know what happened to Michael, but she knew that Michael was a strong fighter, so she believed Michael could handle those grunts.
But what if he failed? After all, fighting three armed men was difficult.
So if the person who burst out of that emergency door wasn't Michael, then…
Mai stood up, enduring the pain in her stomach. She shielded the unconscious Kate from whoever walked in.
"Even with my body…" Mai murmured.
She remembered her big sister, who passed away about twelve years ago. They were so close, yet her sister told her to run when they had to fight against the monstrous man in the past.
