He Wenjie put on a terrorist uniform and a balaclava. Because he and the Fire Phoenix team had wasted a lot of time setting up defensive fortifications earlier, he did not encounter anyone clearing the floors as he went back upstairs; all that remained were bodies and bullet holes scattered across the ground.
It was not until he reached the top floor with an unobstructed path that he actually encountered a few thugs, who were guarding the roof to prevent anyone from fast-roping down to attack. Upon meeting He Wenjie, their first reaction was to ask for the password, and He Wenjie naturally responded with a burst of gunfire. After a brief skirmish, He Wenjie successfully captured the roof.
By now He Wenjie had confirmed that Zhào Yúnmíng was not to be found anywhere from the sixth floor upwards, which meant he was most likely being held in one of the conference rooms on the fourth floor. His current gear would definitely not work for sneaking downstairs to rescue the hostage, so He Wenjie had a flash of inspiration and decided to take an unconventional approach.
