Used to being surrounded, and having experienced being surrounded with severely injured people around, for a mercenary, fighting outnumbered behind enemy lines is routine. Once a comrade is injured, you must stay to protect them until they are moved or given first aid. So, Gao Yang is quite familiar with all this.
This time is not more dangerous than before, but this time, Gao Yang severely lacks backup, and mostly he lacks time. For someone like Gao Yang who is very familiar and skilled at fighting and escaping simultaneously, his biggest fear is losing the space to move, because if he leaves, Justin is absolutely doomed.
The space in the mall is quite big. Gao Yang glanced around, wanting to grab someone as a hostage. But no one's stupid; outside there's gunfire and cars crashing around, who wouldn't hide? So, Gao Yang looked around and saw people, but they were too far away, and those he could see were quickly escaping.
