Chapter 26

Ruan Qingshuang was already so frightened that she could only pray, even naively thinking that this was the Four Wolves Gang coming for revenge.

"Slap!"

Qin Waner had no choice; she threw the gun on the ground and kicked it away. At any time, the safety of a hostage was paramount! This was the principle she, as a police officer, had to adhere to!

She was worried that the other party might act rashly, and if this person really hurt Guoguo, she would live in the shadow of guilt for the rest of her life.

Gong You was relieved by his luck. Mountain Cat was dead, and Qin Hu was dead. He had to leave this place; only by leaving could he inform the boss of the location where Chou Yan was hiding! Fortunately, there was this little girl; otherwise, he wouldn't have known what to do!

Moreover, Gong You had already begun to realize the importance of the little girl in his hands, as he never expected that even the violent Fox Venerable Chou Yan would obediently listen and not move at all!

Due to the tense situation, Gong You had not noticed the little girl's appearance earlier. Could this child be the precious granddaughter of Feng Qiansui that the boss wanted them to find!

Thinking of this, Gong You pressed the knife tightly against Guoguo's neck and looked at Chou Yan with a cunning gaze: "You'd better all be honest. Think about this child's life before you make any rash moves!"

He saw that Chou Yan's eyes indeed flashed with unprecedented anxiety and tension, indicating that this little girl was very likely the person their boss wanted!

Qin Waner still thought the other party was a thief or a thug and even wanted to negotiate with him: "Let the child go, and I will let you leave! Don't hurt the child! I can satisfy any demand you have!"

A cold smile appeared on the corner of Gong You's mouth. He carefully bent down and cautiously picked up the gun that Qin Waner had dropped.

The entire process was extremely cautious, and the cold sweat on his head proved his fear. He was afraid that a slight mistake would result in him being killed by Xu Yun and Chou Yan, two experts. When he finally held the gun, a relaxed and cold smile appeared on his face.

"Whoosh—!"

Gong You immediately raised the gun and aimed at Qin Waner without hesitation. The cold smile on his face became more evident: "Little police officer, blame yourself for meddling! If I want your life, will you satisfy me? Hahaha!"

Xu Yun thought it was bad! Because the bullet was already in the chamber, and if Gong You lightly pulled the trigger, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Gong You was very cunning. He knew that the chance of hurting experts like Xu Yun and Chou Yan with a gun was minimal! To escape, he had to create chaos, and killing this police officer was his best choice, both allowing him to escape and leaving enough trouble for Chou Yan and Xu Yun!

"Bang!"

The gunshot echoed through the night sky, and the muzzle flash emitted a dazzling light, a bullet flying out!

Qin Waner's pupils instantly dilated in fear; she never thought that the criminal would really shoot at her!

From entering the police academy to now, Qin Waner had never been as afraid as today, because she realized for the first time how close death was to her.

At the moment the gun went off, Xu Yun leaped into the air! He couldn't let Qin Waner die, even though she was a police officer, a profession he despised the most! If Qin Waner died, they wouldn't be able to explain it!

Of course, there was one more important point: this somewhat brainless policewoman was not the same as the corrupt police officers Xu Yun despised!

Just as Qin Waner was about to accept death, she was suddenly held by a powerful arm!

A bullet hit Xu Yun's right shoulder, and a stream of blood gushed out like an arrow! Qin Waner was stunned on the spot; she only felt a fierce wind pass by, and Xu Yun had already blocked her!

When she came to her senses, the two of them had already fallen to the ground heavily!

Gong You was also astonished!

Given Xu Yun's strength, he was undoubtedly a top expert in the underground world. How could such an expert block a bullet for a mere police officer!?

Immediately, Gong You paid a heavy price for his distraction.

Chou Yan's Longyuan soft sword stabbed out like a bolt of lightning, resembling a silver snake in the night!

By the time Gong You realized it was bad, it was too late. He couldn't help but drop his gun due to the severe pain in his right wrist, and then his left knee was torn by the Longyuan soft sword! Gong You fell to one knee, and at this moment, the hostage in his hands had already been taken by Chou Yan!

Qin Waner was completely preoccupied with Xu Yun's body pressing heavily on hers, the blood gushing from his right shoulder making her at a loss. Two tears involuntarily flowed from her eyes; after all, she was a girl.

However, the heroic Xu Yun raised his head, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and smiled: "Hey, do police officers cry when they're on duty? That's not very professional, is it?"

Qin Waner, seeing Xu Yun still able to smile, was dumbfounded. Although she didn't burst into tears, she completely stopped crying.

After saving Guoguo, Chou Yan handed her to the completely stunned Ruan Qingshuang and then raised her Longyuan soft sword, directly threatening Gong You!

However, at this moment, a surge of uncontrollable internal energy erupted within Chou Yan! The internal energy seemed to want to tear her apart, and Chou Yan spat out a mouthful of blood!

In an instant, she was even unable to stand, falling to one knee, and could only rely on the Longyuan sword to support her body and prevent her from collapsing.

When Guoguo was in danger, the intense worry caused Chou Yan's internal injuries, which had just been suppressed by silver needles, to flare up again. She had been suppressing it, but now that Guoguo was out of danger, Chou Yan had reached her limit and could no longer hold on!

Gong You originally thought he was dead, but seeing Chou Yan in such a state, his heart suddenly brightened! He endured the severe pain in his wrist and knee, stood up, and, although both Chou Yan and Xu Yun were injured, the cautious Gong You did not engage in further combat but quickly fled!

Now that Qin Hu and Mountain Cat were both dead, he had to survive! As long as he could inform the boss, he would have accomplished a great feat!

However, just as Gong You had fled less than thirty meters, three consecutive gunshots made him kneel on the ground of Hedong City!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Qin Waner held the gun with both hands, steady as a rock! This was her first time shooting at a criminal, and all her previous thoughts were forgotten due to Xu Yun being shot! She had only one thought: she must not let the criminal escape!

Xu Yun let out a long sigh of relief. If Chou Yan hadn't quickly dealt with the person on the rooftop, he wouldn't have dared to expect Qin Waner to shoot and kill a second-rate expert.

Guoguo seemed to have just come to her senses, looking at everyone with a blank expression, then hugging Ruan Qingshuang and saying, "Mom, did Guoguo have a nightmare again?"

"Uh-huh, Guoguo had a nightmare again... Don't be afraid, let's go back to sleep, okay? Guoguo, be good..." Ruan Qingshuang even doubted if she was having a nightmare too! Qin Waner had actually fired a gun!

"Quickly take Guoguo back inside." Chou Yan didn't say much; the oppressive feeling in her chest made her not want to say another word. She tried her best to maintain steady breathing to suppress the internal injuries.

Ruan Qingshuang, suppressing her concern for Xu Yun, picked up Guoguo and quickly returned to the medicinal cuisine shop, slamming the door shut. She didn't want Guoguo to see the bloody scene.

Ruan Qingshuang repeatedly told herself that Qin Waner was outside, and she had seen Xu Yun get shot, but she firmly believed that Xu Yun would be fine and that Waner could solve everything!

Guoguo, severely frightened, fell asleep in a daze but held Ruan Qingshuang tightly, muttering, "Mom... Mom... Guoguo is scared..."

Ruan Qingshuang, heartbroken, quickly held Guoguo's hand, "Mom is here! Guoguo, don't be afraid!"

After shooting Gong You, Qin Waner quickly ran back to Xu Yun's side. Seeing his undershirt almost soaked in blood, she couldn't help but cry silently, "Xu Yun! You can't die! You can't die! I'll take you to the hospital right away!"

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Who are you cursing? Who died? Are you uncomfortable seeing me alive and well?" Xu Yun, enduring the pain in his shoulder, sat up. No matter how strong a person is, they are still made of flesh and blood, but this minor injury wouldn't be fatal for Xu Yun.

"You won't die? What should I do then?" Qin Waner was at a loss, Xu Yun being fine made her feel even more at a loss.

I'll be damned! According to you, it would be easier if I died?

Xu Yun didn't want to argue with Qin Waner about this ominous topic, grinned, and pointed to Gong You in the distance: "Do you know who you just killed?"

"Huh?" Qin Waner, seeing that Xu Yun was not in danger, relaxed a lot and was quickly distracted by Xu Yun's words.

"Conqueror Gong You!" Xu Yun clearly said a few words.

Conqueror Gong You!?

Qin Waner was instantly stunned. Conqueror Gong You was a Class A wanted criminal in China!

He had committed several murders in Northeast and Northwest China and killed the police officers who pursued him, using extremely cruel and bloody methods! Moreover, this person was very cunning, and the police had spent a lot of resources and efforts to capture him multiple times, but he always managed to escape.

Moreover, the recent uproar in Suzhou and Hangzhou about Feng Qiansui seemed to be related to him!

"Is he the killer?!" Qin Waner couldn't believe that she had killed a notorious killer!

"That's right." Xu Yun nodded and said lightly.

Qin Waner was directly petrified!

Chou Yan adjusted her breath in a minute and, while the two were talking, walked directly to Gong You, searching his body and finding a dark red card similar to a mobile phone SIM card. This was likely the positioning device they all carried.

Thinking of this, Chou Yan returned to the rooftop and quickly found two more on Qin Hu's body. It seemed these two had found this place using this device.

She needed to handle this matter today. Since she had chosen to trust Xu Yun, she didn't intend to deal with Qin Waner anymore. She directly dragged Qin Hu's body and disappeared into the darkness. Since one Gong You had already been killed, there was no need to make Qin Hu's death public...
