Wei Jie
Chapter 369 A Narrow Escape
Shui-ge and the others, holding Su Tiannan and Lu Feng hostage, rushed to the first floor. At that moment, the thugs that Manager Pang had waiting downstairs had also come through the lobby and were heading straight for the back door.
Holding a gun, Shui-ge ordered in no uncertain terms, "Lao Si, Lao Wu, take some guys and hold them off. We're leaving first."
"Okay!"
Lao Si and Lao Wu, who specialized in covering the rear, grabbed their walkie-talkies and shouted a couple of times, then kicked open the back door and scattered, hiding in the backyard.
Shui-ge and the others continued to flee with their hostages, quickly leaving the small courtyard behind the Golden Land and running towards the residential area.
As soon as they crossed the road, intense gunfire erupted from the backyard. Lu Feng, with a gun pressed against his lower back, turned his head and saw that there were not many thugs left. He immediately prepared to make a move.
These people were of unknown origin, and they dared to use guns to carry out kidnappings in a place like Dragon City. They were too bold. No one could say for sure that if they ran away in a moment, they wouldn't just shoot Lu Feng and the others.
Whether he resisted or not, he might die, but the former gave him the initiative.
Lu Feng swallowed hard, sweat beading on his forehead as he glanced at Su Tiannan, wanting to make eye contact with him, because if they worked together, their chances of success would be greater. But he noticed that Su Tiannan was being watched by a single thug and had almost no room to struggle.
Lu Feng clenched his fists, estimating the distance to Shui-ge, Manager Pang, and the other two thugs, preparing to snatch a gun.
"The other side has people downstairs, don't drive the car over, come out and pick us up, quick!" Shui-ge shouted into the walkie-talkie.
As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps echoed from the depths of the alley. Lu Feng was just about to make a move when he looked up and saw two more people coming out of the alley with guns to meet them.
"Damn it!" The once hot-blooded Master Lu immediately cooled down. There were too many of them; he couldn't move, or he wouldn't be able to snatch a gun, and that would be a dead end.
After Shui-ge and the others met up with the reinforcements in the alley, they immediately said to one of the masked thugs, "Number One, take him away and meet up according to the plan."
"Okay!" The masked thug grabbed Manager Pang, using a gun to hold him hostage, and quickly left.
Shui-ge looked back at the backyard of the Golden Land Entertainment City and immediately said to the remaining people, "Chao, Baisui and I will take the hostages, the rest of you scatter and run, quick!"
...
Five minutes later, the thugs scattered and fled from the vicinity of the Golden Land Entertainment City.
In a dark and damp slum alley, a masked thug pressed a gun against Su Tiannan and said in a low voice, "Don't move, and you'll be fine, understand?"
The sky was dim, and the other party was still wearing a mask, and his clothes were relatively loose, making it difficult to judge his body shape. But even so, Su Tiannan inexplicably felt that the person who had been escorting him had a sense of familiarity.
Su Tiannan leaned against the wall and nodded slowly, "I... I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone on the left suddenly shouted, "Damn, he's trying to grab the gun, stop him!"
In the alley, Su Tiannan and the thug turned their heads at the same time and saw Lu Feng, who had been escorted separately, running over here in a panic.
Just now, everyone was afraid of being targeted, so they chose to scatter and run around in the alleys, so Lu Feng didn't know that there were people here. He had just resisted and managed to knock down a thug, but when he turned around, he ran into Su Tiannan and the others again.
Lu Feng was stunned for a moment when he saw Su Tiannan and the thug leaning against the wall, seemingly talking.
"Bang!"
Shui-ge ran over from the other end and knocked Lu Feng to the ground with a gun butt: "Damn, you still dare to grab a gun?!"
Lu Feng hugged his head in a very standard posture and squatted against the wall: "Brothers... I'm running around in a daze, I didn't want to grab a gun."
"You're dazed, my ass!" Shui-ge smashed Lu Feng again with a gun butt, knocking him down directly.
"Brother... Although I'm not anyone special in Dragon City, I'm also someone who runs in the underworld. If you kill me, it won't necessarily be convenient. I'm from Changqing...!" Lu Feng said immediately, panting, "You guys aren't showing your faces, so you must be wolves from out of town looking for food. There's no need for us to shed blood. If you raise your hand and let me go, I swear to God that I will never talk nonsense."
"Bro, bro!" Just then, the thug holding Su Tiannan shouted.
Shui-ge turned his head to look at him, pointed at Lu Feng, and said to another accomplice, "Keep an eye on them!"
After speaking, Shui-ge walked towards the depths of the alley, while the young man holding Su Tiannan said in a low voice, "Don't move, my friend really dares to kill you."
Su Tiannan glanced at the other party strangely, nodded, and did not reply.
Shui-ge walked over, pulled the young man directly to a corner at the other end of the alley, and left everyone's sight.
...
Under the dim light, the young man from the hotel said to Shui-ge in a low voice, "The job is done, don't kill those two."
"We didn't want to kill them in the first place, they are innocent people. But you broke the rules, you talked to him." Shui-ge pointed at the young man's chest and replied, "For safety's sake, both of them have to die!"
"Bro, I told you, I know him!" The young man from the hotel argued, "I originally wanted to find him to meet us, but later I considered that we haven't seen each other for a long time and needed some preparation... so I chose the second plan."
Shui-ge turned his head and glanced around, then continued to point at the young man's chest and roared, "Are you fucking stupid?! What if he recognizes you? If he goes to the police station in a moment and tells them everything, you'll be exposed, and we'll be in trouble too!"
"He won't, he didn't recognize me!"
"How do you know he won't?" Shui-ge asked.
"Shui-ge, if something happens, can I take responsibility for it myself?" The young man looked up at him: "I swear to God, he won't bite me!"
Under the moonlight, the two looked at each other.
After Shui-ge was silent for a long time, he pointed at the young man and said, "When the car comes in a moment, we'll leave first. When it's completely safe, you can throw people outside the district. I'm telling you, Zhang Chao, this is the only time, never again! If I wasn't thinking about the fact that you saved my life... what you just said could have cost you your life."
After speaking, Shui-ge turned and left.
...
Forty minutes after the incident, on a dirt road in the suburbs of Dragon City.
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
Su Tiannan and Lu Feng were kicked out of the car and rolled into the dirt pit.
"Buzz!"
The van sped away.
In the deep ditch by the roadside, the bound Lu Feng struggled to pull his head out of the mud pit, used his tongue to push open the strip of cloth wrapped around his mouth, and shouted in a hoarse voice, "...Wh...what's up? Are you using your mouth, or am I using my mouth?"
Su Tiannan's mouth was sealed very tightly, and he couldn't speak. He simply stuck his butt over and bumped Lu Feng's head twice.
"...Don't fucking bump me, how many times have I been hit on the head, and you're still bumping me?! Lie down, I'll come up and bite you first!" Lu Feng cursed.
