She had only taken two steps when a hand wrapped tightly around her ankle. She gasped as her body was yanked backward. "Ahhh!" she screamed, falling hard onto the ground.
Her head hit the concrete, stars exploding in her vision. Pain surged through her skull, but she did not stay down. Panic fueled her movements. She twisted her body and kicked wildly.
Her heel struck his shoulder. Then his chest.
Still gripping the file, she raised her arm and brought it down again and again, hitting him with everything she had. The man clearly did not expect her resistance. His grip loosened.
That was enough.
Yun Si tore free and scrambled to her feet. She ran. Behind her, the man recovered quickly. His footsteps thundered against the ground as he chased after her.
BANG!
Another gunshot echoed through the night.
