Shen Bing sat in front of a computer and looked at the data. Her eyes didn’t even blink as she said, “The cell phone’s signal source is locked, it’s near Blue Water Street’s 7. Although it’s switched off, we can still find traces of the signal!”
Wang Xin clenched his fist and said, “God dammit, he really is at Blue Water Street …”
Dongcheng Feng anxiously said from the side, “Then why aren’t you guys sending people over? What are the police doing here?”
Wang Xin clenched his teeth and said, “Do you think that we don’t want to attack immediately?”
But…
What did Xue Kun rely on to be so fearless this time around?
“It’s a large group of them, as well as an unfathomable expert!”
He said with reddened eyes, “I don’t care what expert he is. Yue’er is in their hands. If you police want to get her at 11 pm, then just wait. I don’t want to wait any longer. Yue’er is in danger every second!”
I rushed forward and grabbed onto Lei’s arm with one hand. “Ah Lei, don’t be rash!”
“Bang!” I was forced to take several steps back from the impact. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with deep disappointment: “Big Brother Xiao Yao, I thought you loved Yue’er as much as I did, that you would sacrifice everything for her safety. But I was wrong, you love your own life even more!”
Trembling, I stood there with my fists clenched, looking straight at him.
Wang Xin casually said, “Li Xiaoyao, don’t be impulsive. This is an order. You must wait until 10 pm to take action. Blue Water Street is a commercial street, you must give the police some time to clear the area.”
I looked at Wang Xin and said, “How about this, let me lead a team of members of the Guardian Team to enter through the underground passageway at the northern corner of Blue Water Street. I’ll catch them off guard.”
“Shut up!”
Wang Xin was slightly angry as he said, “Your vocation is to obey orders, not to act alone!”
My nose turned sour as I furiously said, “That’s right! Other people’s lives are more important, but what about Dongcheng Yue? What will she do, what will she suffer in the Blood Sickle, did you ever think of that? “
Wang Xin trembled slightly. He was about to say something, but then he stopped himself when he saw the police chief of the Hz City Police Department, who was wearing a high-grade police uniform, looking at me and softly saying, “Li Xiaoyao, don’t be impulsive. This is not the time to be impulsive, you are a police officer, and you are a special combat soldier. You should know that the general situation is more important than anything else, and the helicopters, military fighter planes, and armoured vehicles around Hangzhou are all rushing over. Give them some time. As you know, ordinary police officers are unable to deal with the current Blood Sickle. You can’t just let us destroy the entire Blue Water Street and bury thousands of people for a single person, right? “
I was speechless. I slowly leaned against the wall behind me and held onto Blacky’s sword hilt. I slowly pulled out the completely black sword and said with sore eyes, “Captain Wang Xin, do you remember your previous oath? The National Flag, my word and my deed, do not taint the golden shield. Sacrificing a person in the East Side for the sake of the big picture, isn’t that tainting the badge on our chest? Tell me, is it not me who is small and big? Dongcheng Yue is also a human, who has the qualification to sacrifice her? “
Wang Xin felt extremely uncomfortable. He landed a punch on a table beside him. His eyes were bloodshot as he looked up at me, “What do you want me to do? Do you want to go to Blue Water Street and kill everyone in China? Do you want them to see hundreds of people killed by the Blood Sickle in Hangzhou? “
I shook my head and looked at him in despair. I took off the badge on my chest and placed it on the table. I gripped the hilt of Blacky’s sword and said, “All of my actions today have nothing to do with the police.”
“Stop right there!”
However, the bureau chief stopped me and ordered in a low voice, “Guards, put Li Xiaoyao under house arrest. Don’t let him leave the base even half a step before 11 o’clock today. Otherwise …. Kill him on the spot!
ME: “…”
Xing Lie raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at me.
I looked at him and muttered, “Little Lie, do you want to shoot?”
Xing Lie’s expression was extremely ugly to behold. Tears welled up in his eyes as he said in a trembling voice, “Boss, don’t … Don’t make things difficult for me. We don’t want to lose you. Please don’t. After today, we will hand over our lives to you …”
To the side, Shen Bing also stood up and pressed one hand on my shoulder, “Li Xiaoyao, don’t be stubborn!”
Not far away, Lin Tiannan was rushing over with Lin Wan’er in tow. Lin Wan’er watched as Officer Xing Lie and the others pointed their guns at me. She immediately rushed over, pushing away Xing Lie with one hand and blocking my way as she shouted, “What are you guys planning to do?”
I said softly, “Wan’er, it’s fine, it’s fine …”
….
Dongcheng Feng’s turbid eyes were filled with fury. “If you police aren’t going, then go ahead! If you don’t want it, then just give it up!”
Wang Xin hurriedly said, “Dongcheng Feng, why are you so impulsive?”
Dongcheng Feng turned around, his eyes red, “Because being under house arrest is not your daughter, because you are not the father of a girl. Why do you think I would be so impulsive?”
Do you guys think that delaying like this is worthy of this layer of skin on your body?!
Wang Xin: “…”
Finally, the bureau chief said, “We are cleaning up the scene at the fastest speed possible. There aren’t many people on Blue Water Street anymore. A large number of police and military forces are entering the city. Please give us some more time. It will only take an hour.”
Everyone was silent.
Xing Lie and the other policemen continued to point their pistols at me and handcuffed me in the end. No matter how Lin Wan’er begged, it was useless. Lin Tiannan remained silent on the side, his expression ugly.
….
Shen Bing walked over and said, “Xing Lie, stop looking at Li Xiaoyao like that. There’s no need. Li Xiaoyao, come with me. I’ll show you all of the security cameras on Blue Water Street.”
Sure enough, the once bustling Blue Water Street is now very deserted. There are already quite a number of police officers gathered at the periphery, putting up a warning line. As for the cameras near 7 Blue Water Street, they have already been dismantled by the blood sickle and can only be seen from afar.
It’s a clubhouse, I remember there was a person living there, a person who haunted my mind like a nightmare — — Ouyang Chuan, a person with the power of Yang Yan.
I slowly leaned back in my chair. I rubbed my dry eyes, but my heart was filled with worry and uneasiness. What else could I do?
Probably just praying for the Dongcheng Yue to be safe?
Suddenly, Wang Xin’s voice came from outside. He hurriedly rushed in and asked loudly, “Where’s Dongcheng Lei?!”
Shen Bing shook her head, “I don’t know, no one is looking at him.”
Wang Xin was stunned. He clenched his fist tightly. “Crap, that rascal didn’t really go, right?”
Xing Lie walked in quickly. “Captain Wang, Lei’s car is missing from the eastern city. Someone said they saw him driving in the direction of Blue Water Street!”
I hastily stood up and shouted, “Why haven’t you sent people to chase him back?”
“Inform the officers on Blue Water Street to stop Lei in East City. Don’t let him enter the security perimeter!”
Wang Xin nodded, “Got it, I’ll do it immediately!”
I held on to Blacky’s handle again, and my heart suddenly hurt.
….
It was the first snow after spring, a late snowfall. I walked out of the room and stood on the balcony, looking up at the sky, letting the snowflakes fall on my face, feeling a slight chill in my heart. If there really was justice in this world, why would people like Ouyang Chuan and Wei Fan be able to walk across the world?
If there really was a god in this world, why would Dongcheng Yue be in such danger?
I don’t dare to think about what Dongcheng Yue is currently suffering from, and I don’t want to think about it. If something really happens to Dongcheng Yue, I will definitely blame myself for the rest of my life and will never forgive my mistake.
A member of the guardians team held a handgun and looked at me, “Leader, go in …”
I couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile. Was Wang Xin still sending people to watch me?
….
It was already dark, and night had fallen. Everything was silent, and only the rustling of the falling snow could be heard.
After an unknown amount of time, there was suddenly a burst of noise outside. My heart suddenly felt a piercing pain. I rushed out and asked loudly, “What happened?”
“What’s wrong?”
Shen Bing’s face was pale as she said with a trembling voice, “Dongcheng Lei, dead!”
“Ah Lei …”
I suddenly felt a bit dazed. “How could Ah Lei …”
He rushed out of the door. It was snowing outside, but a police car was flashing a warning light. A group of people surrounded him. The sound of wailing wind came from the east side of the city.
Without even wiping the mud off my shoulder, I staggered over and split up the crowd, only to discover that there was a corpse lying on top of the stretcher. The clothes he was wearing were those of the Dongcheng Lei. In fact, I could even see the tattoo on his wrist, which looked like a wolf head, which was stabbed by Dongcheng Lei himself.
Cold arrows were inserted into the corpses. They were titanium alloy arrows used by the modern crossbow.
Dongcheng Feng had already fainted. Although Dongcheng Lei was his adopted son, Dongcheng Feng had long considered this silly kid to be his own son. One could only imagine the sorrow in his heart.
“Xiao Yao ….”
Shen Bing looked at me, her beautiful eyes full of worry, as if she was afraid that I would do something.
I suddenly dropped to my knees beside Lei’s corpse, but I couldn’t see his face. Lei’s head had already been cut off, and his body had returned with countless arrows.
….
Wang Xin said from behind me, “Li Xiaoyao, you …”
“You don’t want…”
As if I hadn’t heard him, I reached out to grab a crossbow arrow and gently pulled it out, bringing with me a trace of black blood, which was unexpectedly poisoned. Every time I pulled out an arrow, my heart would feel as if it was being stabbed by a knife, and when I pulled out all the arrows on Lei’s chest and legs, my tears finally spilled out.
Kneeling beside Lei’s corpse, I raised my head and wailed. In my hoarse voice, there was an indescribable sadness.
