—The elevator had come up at some point.
While Jiang Xia had been intently studying the killing intent, the others had already filed into the elevator.
Just before the elevator doors closed, two hands suddenly shot out from either side and pushed Jiang Xia in the back at the same time.
The FBI Ace and the Public Security undercover agent were not weak, let alone in a complete sneak attack. Even as they pushed him, both were watching each other instead of Jiang Xia, making it impossible for him to anticipate it.
Caught off guard, Jiang Xia was shoved inside. Suzuki Sonoko had just steadied herself in the elevator when she turned and saw Jiang Xia tumble in through the doorway. Her eyes lit up, and she caught him in one swift motion.
