"Don't move, can't you understand human speech?"
Li Zihang, standing beside Xu Lingwei, looked at Davis, who was kneeling on the ground, still clutching his sniper rifle and fumbling with a new magazine. Davis was frozen in place. He hadn't noticed Xu Lingwei and Li Zihang, the senior and junior siblings, appearing behind him during the fierce exchange of fire with Wan Yunting. Moreover, he couldn't understand the Chinese they were speaking.
Davis tilted his head slightly, feeling the cold edge of a sword against his neck. Without hesitation, he twisted his head and quickly turned…
*Bang!*
Before Davis could fully turn to resist, Li Zihang, holding a wooden stick, unhesitatingly swung it at his head. It was like a baseball swing. Davis spun around twice before falling to the ground with a thud, his vision blurring, his head spinning, and everything appearing a chaotic mess…
"I told you not to move, but you insisted on moving. Can't you understand human speech?"
Li Zihang, still holding the wooden stick, crouched down and saw that Davis lying on the ground was a foreigner. He turned to Xu Lingwei and chuckled, "Senior sister, he's a foreigner, no wonder he doesn't understand us…"
"Be careful…"
Suddenly, Davis pulled out his sidearm, cocked it, and aimed it at Li Zihang's head…
But in an instant, Xu Lingwei kicked Li Zihang away. Her long sword flashed a cold glint in the night sky. Before Davis could pull the trigger, Xu Lingwei severed his left wrist…
*Bang!*
*Ah…*
Blood splattered, accompanied by the gunshot and Davis's scream. His severed left hand still clutched the gun. Due to nerve spasms, his index finger pulled the trigger. The bullet, however, hit elsewhere, but it still startled Li Zihang, turning his face pale. He sat on the ground, wide-eyed, watching the scene with lingering fear and exclaiming, "Oh my god, I almost got shot dead."
Xu Lingwei's delicate face was cold. Seeing Davis's right hand draw a military knife to resist, her long sword flicked again, directly severing the tendons in Davis's right wrist. Now, he could only lie on the ground, wailing and screaming…
At this moment, at the southern entrance of the abandoned building complex, over a dozen police cars and several SWAT vehicles arrived. A contingent of fully armed SWAT officers immediately disembarked and rapidly advanced from all directions…
"Yunting, Yunting, how are you…"
Fang Yanxi, who had rolled to the wall of the abandoned building with Wan Yunting holding her, looked at the man with tearful, anxious eyes. He had been shot in his left ribs, and blood was flowing…
"I'm fine…"
Upon hearing the sirens, Wan Yunting knew Zhou Dong and his team had arrived. He glanced at the wound on his left ribs. Fortunately, the bullet hadn't broken his ribs, it had just passed through. He then turned to the woman in his arms and saw her hands were bound. "Come, I'll untie you…"
"Wuwu…"
Fang Yanxi, with her hands freed, immediately hugged the man tightly, causing Wan Yunting to pause. He also held her, gently stroking her hair, and finally let out a sigh of relief, smiling, "It's good you're alright…"
Fang Yanxi released him, her lips pressed together, her tear-filled eyes fixed on Wan Yunting. She said, "Why do you always do this?"
"Silly girl."
Wan Yunting raised his hand and stroked her cheek, smiling gently. "You're my girlfriend, of course, I have to stand in front of you."
These words made Fang Yanxi's tears flow uncontrollably again. She immediately hugged Wan Yunting, deeply moved…
"Hiss…"
Wan Yunting gasped in pain. Fang Yanxi quickly let go of him, saying nervously, "Did I touch your wound?"
Wan Yunting grinned through the pain, "It's nothing, not dead yet…"
"Don't move…"
Immediately after, a large group of SWAT officers rushed over. The spotlights from their rifles illuminated Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi…
"Yunting…"
Zhou Dong and Niu Qiuling, wearing bulletproof vests, hurried in with Wu Lei and Huang Yongxin. Seeing Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi sitting against the wall, Niu Qiuling's almond eyes widened. But upon seeing the blood seeping from the clothes on Wan Yunting's left side, she immediately asked anxiously, "Are you injured?"
"Quick, take him to the hospital…"
Zhou Dong gestured for Wu Lei and Huang Yongxin to go forward. Wan Yunting, supported by Fang Yanxi, stood up and waved his hand, smiling, "It's nothing, the bullet just grazed my skin. I've already stopped the bleeding."
"Don't act tough, go to the hospital first," Fang Yanxi said seriously, her face stern.
"Tsk ~"
Seeing this scene, Niu Qiuling rolled her almond eyes and stepped back, no longer bothering with them.
"Captain Zhou, we have a live one here."
Several SWAT officers nearby had already apprehended the black man, Karl.
"Let's go…"
"We're not police officers, we're good people…"
Over there, Li Zihang raised his hands and explained to the nearby SWAT officers, while Xu Lingwei remained expressionless. However, her sword was already held by a SWAT officer, and Davis, with his severed hand bleeding continuously, was being escorted behind her…
"Why are you here?"
Seeing Xu Lingwei and Li Zihang, the senior and junior siblings, Wan Yunting was surprised.
"Junior brother Yunting, we followed you. Look, this person was subdued by my senior sister and me."
Li Zihang, upon seeing Wan Yunting, ignored the SWAT officers behind him and immediately ran towards Wan Yunting. Zhou Dong also waved his hand at the SWAT officers, saying, "They're with us."
He looked at the sniper and realized that was why he had suddenly stopped firing – he had been subdued by these siblings.
"But how did you follow me?"
Wan Yunting still looked at Xu Lingwei and Li Zihang curiously.
"Her."
Li Zihang pointed at Fang Yanxi and said, "Our phones have her phone's location, so we followed her."
"I installed the tracking software for them," Fang Yanxi said.
"So that's how it is," Wan Yunting nodded.
Originally, Xu Lingwei and Li Zihang were comfortably eating snacks and watching idol dramas at home. But they had taken Wan Yunting's money to act as Fang Yanxi's bodyguards. Perhaps feeling a bit guilty, and after finishing their idol dramas, the siblings took a taxi and came here directly, following Fang Yanxi's location.
"Captain Zhou, apart from these two, the remaining six are all dead."
A SWAT captain approached, having found all the bodies of Eddie Stevenson and his group.
"Eight people, all accounted for."
Zhou Dong nodded.
Just then, his phone rang. It was Wu Bochaos calling, "Old Zhou, I'm done here."
"Good, I've resolved it here too," Zhou Dong replied with a smile.
It turned out Wu Bochaos had also led a team to arrest a smuggling gang that had helped Eddie Stevenson and his group enter Huadu City. Wu Bochaos had been monitoring them for a long time. Unexpectedly, this smuggling and drug trafficking ring had also assisted Eddie Stevenson's group in their illegal entry.
"Take them all back."
After hanging up, Zhou Dong waved his hand. Niu Qiuling, Wu Lei, and the others immediately escorted the bodies of Eddie Stevenson and Retana, as well as the still-living Karl and Davis, back.
"Yunting, you should also come back with us to get your injuries checked at the hospital."
Zhou Dong looked at Wan Yunting's gunshot wound and Fang Yanxi's small wound on her neck. They nodded, and then they all left.
Of course, Xu Lingwei and Li Zihang, the senior and junior siblings, were taken directly to the police station for questioning…
Soon, Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi were taken by an ambulance to Southern Hospital and directly to the emergency department.
Although the gunshot wasn't fatal, the wound still needed to be treated and stitched. Therefore, Wan Yunting was sent to the operating room, while Fang Yanxi was attended to by a nurse for the small wound on her neck and the abrasion on her knee…
"Yanxi!"
At this moment, a man emerged from the corridor of another operating room. He saw Fang Yanxi sitting nearby, waiting for Wan Yunting. She looked up at the man in surprise, "Qin Yuan, why are you here? Hmm! What about Yanan? How is she?"
This man was Lin Yanan's husband, Qin Yuan. He sighed and said, "She hasn't passed the critical period yet."
Fang Yanxi's expression froze, her delicate brows furrowed, and she felt a pang of self-reproach. "Qin Yuan, I'm sorry. If it weren't for me, Yanan wouldn't have…"
"It's alright, Yanxi. I know about your relationship with Yanan," Qin Yuan said, waving his hand. Then, he frowned and asked, "I saw on the news that you were kidnapped. What happened?"
Just then, the door of the adjacent operating room opened. It was Jiang Tongxin who was treating Wan Yunting's wound. Fang Yanxi got up and went to look at the man. Wan Yunting smiled at her and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
"Wan Yunting."
Qin Yuan also went up to greet him, but Wan Yunting paused upon seeing him. Fang Yanxi then said, "He's Yanan's husband. Yanan was injured and hasn't passed the critical period yet."
Wan Yunting understood now. He struggled to sit up, but Jiang Tongxin raised an eyebrow, "Your wound has just been treated, you can't move."
"Lie down…"
Fang Yanxi immediately pressed him back down. Wan Yunting looked at Qin Yuan and sighed, "I'm sorry. It was my personal matters that caused Yanan and Yanxi to be implicated."
On the way back, Wan Yunting had already told Fang Yanxi that the group's target was him.
Qin Yuan actually blamed Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi. However, knowing that his wife Lin Yanan and Fang Yanxi were best friends, and that Wan Yunting was a classmate, he said, "Forget it, let's talk about it after Yanan passes the critical period. I'll go back to get something first…"
Qin Yuan waved his hand, said this, then turned and walked out of the emergency department.
At this moment, Zhou Dong and Niu Qiuling arrived. Seeing Wan Yunting being pushed out of the operating room on a stretcher, Zhou Dong asked, "Yunting, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
Wan Yunting shook his head slightly, his mind on Lin Yanan, feeling extremely self-reproachful and guilty.
