Someone fired a gun.
Donghai hurled the lighter toward the bamboo pile. Officers scrambled, shouting. Someone crashed a glass box and pushed the alarm. Linlin activated the sprinkle system and drones with special fire deactivating gas crushed inside.
But the bamboo sticks caused an explosion--flames roared upward. The warehouse was quickly becoming an inferno.
A collapsing beam fell, narrowly missing Liwu, but knocking one of the drones directly into the heart of the fire, extinguishing most of it. The rest started going out as well, little by little. Donghai screamed in frustration.

Linlin pulled Liwu to her feet. "Your bad luck just saved us!"
Liwu grinned, hair singed at the edges. "My hair....my hair!"
"I will cut it for you." Linlin offered.
Donghai staggered, coughing like a smoker whose lungs were rotten. "What have you done? This was supposed to the the biggest one. What will I do now? It will consume me!"
