Chapter 178: Baby
Mountain Eagle and Selena were heading to a hotel that wasn’t too far away...
But coincidentally, the hotel they were headed to was the site of an explosion.
Thick smoke billowed from a room on the fourth floor of the hotel, yet there wasn’t much visible fire.
The pungent smell and the shrill alarms forced the hotel guests to flee in a very disheveled state.
Mountain Eagle and Selena walked from a block away to their destination, exchanged glances after assessing the scene...
Mountain Eagle picked up the keycard, checked the room number, then looked up at the smoke pouring from the fourth-floor window, and said to Selena, "The room is on the third floor, the explosion on the fourth floor didn’t start a fire, I’ve smelled this type of smoke on some movie sets.
Something seems off, let’s go check it out..."
Selena didn’t stop Mountain Eagle’s risky idea; she flashed her badge and got two gas masks from the arriving firefighters, then followed Mountain Eagle into the hotel.
They rushed up the stairs to the third floor and arrived at the door of their target room...
The explosion was strange; the smoke from the fourth floor didn’t affect the third floor much. Mountain Eagle removed his gas mask, sniffed the slightly foul air, put on his tactical glasses and with a frown, used the keycard to open room 306.
The moment he pushed the door open, Selena, who was right behind Mountain Eagle, let out a shriek. She quickly rushed to the bed and picked up a baby, only a few months old, from a makeshift crib.
