Gently pushing open the tightly closed door of the supermarket, before Xiao Sheng had even stepped inside, there was a "bang" as the trigger of the fake Type 54 pistol in the criminal's hand was pulled. Accompanying the gunshot was Tong Tong's heart-wrenching scream. With her eyes tightly shut, her face was pale, devoid of any color.
"Get out, get out..." The criminal's roaring voice instantly filled the entire supermarket, both inside and out. At that moment, everyone held their breath. Wang Hai, who was in charge of the command, was still shouting into the walkie-talkie.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not a police officer. The girl in your hands is my sister. How about we make a deal? I'll exchange places with my sister. Look, I've handcuffed my own hands, so I can't harm you at all..."
"Get out, I told you to get out. If you take one more step, I'll take her down with me..."
"Who is he, who is he? Get him back immediately..." Wang Hai's heart-wrenching roar echoed through the walkie-talkie. Wang Li, who was holding the walkie-talkie, turned pale, and even Chen Shuyuan, who was standing beside her, became extremely tense!
Li Yuwan, who arrived late, was supported by her husband, Tong Jiahua. She was crying loudly and being held back at the police line, continuously screaming Tong Tong's name. Her appearance added considerable pressure to the police! Reporters who had rushed to the scene immediately captured this moment. Wang Hai, whose face was dark with worry, almost impulsively lunged forward to slap the man who had entered the supermarket, upon learning that he had been let in by his own daughter.
The commotion outside did not affect Xiao Sheng's composure inside the supermarket. He slowly squatted down, exposing himself dangerously to the criminal, with his hands cuffed and his arms behind his head.
"Look, if you want to kill me, just pull the trigger. Brother, do you have a sister? Do you know what it's like to study hard for years? My sister has only a month and a half left before her college entrance exam, which will determine her future. I really don't want this to leave a huge shadow on her heart. You're just trying to survive, so why make things difficult for a student? Tong Tong, be good, don't be afraid, close your eyes. Yes, this big brother will let you go soon..." Whether it was Xiao Sheng's words that touched a chord of compassion in the criminal or whether he was considering the pros and cons of the deal, the finger that was tightly gripping the gun loosened for a moment. In that instant, the blade hidden in Xiao Sheng's sleeve slipped into his palm, and he moved closer to the criminal.
Xiao Sheng's movement instantly made the criminal uneasy. The gun that had been tightly pressed against Tong Tong was now aimed at Xiao Sheng, and the criminal roared:
"Don't move..." But as the gun was taken off Tong Tong, the blade in Xiao Sheng's hand slid out in a beautiful arc, the sharp edge cutting the criminal's exposed hand. The pain made the criminal instinctively turn his head, and in that moment, a clear line of sight for a shot was revealed.
"Bang..." A shot rang out without warning, shattering the side glass wall of the supermarket. The bullet, as if designed, penetrated the criminal's face, splattering blood everywhere. Xiao Sheng, who had rushed to Tong Tong's side, immediately pulled her into his arms, covering her eyes to shield her from the gruesome scene.
"Crash..." The glass wall, unable to bear the weight, shattered and fell to the ground. The criminal, who had been shot, hit the ground hard. This sudden change left everyone on the scene stunned. Wang Li, who was the first to react, quickly advanced into the supermarket, followed by the other police officers. When the police reached inside and saw the criminal's head blown apart, even Wang Li couldn't help but retch. The veteran officers quickly secured the scene, while Xiao Sheng, who had carried Tong Tong to one side, shouted loudly:
"Everyone out, the timed bomb has been activated, hurry..."
Xiao Sheng's shout left the police momentarily stunned. Under the urging of a few veteran officers, the police quickly carried the criminal's body, covered with a white cloth, out of the supermarket!
"Xiao Sheng, the bomb disposal experts are on their way, you..." Wang Li, who was standing to the side and unwilling to leave, reminded him softly.
"Go out..." A calm statement left Wang Li speechless. She slowly walked out of the supermarket, looking back at every step, her anxiety making her pace slow.
Xiao Sheng wiped the blood that had splattered on Tong Tong's face with his rough fingers. Tong Tong, whose body was trembling uncontrollably, though her eyes were tightly shut, already knew the situation. She wasn't afraid because a man who called himself her big brother was by her side.
"You can open your eyes now..." With Xiao Sheng's words, Tong Tong, whose eyes were filled with fear, met Xiao Sheng's calm and composed smile!
"Rumble..." At that moment, Tong Tong's stomach protested with a growl. Xiao Sheng, smiling brightly, took out a keychain from his waist and said casually:
"Hungry? Didn't bring money? When people run away from home, they usually prepare 'food.' You, on the other hand, didn't even take your phone or wallet, and you're afraid to go home..."
Xiao Sheng's words instantly shifted Tong Tong's anxious thoughts. Pouting her lips, her voice slightly hoarse, she replied:
"I was in a hurry, big guy. If the bomb had gone off, wouldn't I have lost everything?"
"Look at you, so little trust. Don't you trust Big Brother Sheng?"
"I do, of course I do. Those who trust Big Brother Sheng will live forever. I'm only eighteen, I haven't lived enough yet... I have a whole life of youth to waste..." After saying this, Tong Tong and Xiao Sheng exchanged a glance, and both smiled lightly in unison.
It had to be said that Tong Tong was a strong and independent girl. In such a situation, she didn't panic or scream like other girls. Perhaps, deep down, Xiao Sheng's presence gave her a greater sense of security.
Xiao Sheng grabbed a bag of chips from the shelf for Tong Tong and continued to smile:
"Have a snack first. When we get out, Big Brother Sheng will take you to eat roast goose."
"I want to eat the noodles made by Aunt Wu..." Tong Tong, who had already opened the bag, mumbled in response.
"Ha ha, okay, we'll go eat Aunt Wu's noodles when we get back, with meat strips and black fungus..."
"And some green vegetables..." Her playful response made both of them burst into laughter. Their laughter echoed outside, and the hearts of the people outside, which had been on edge, relaxed a bit. No matter what, Xiao Sheng had really stabilized the victim's emotions, something none of them could have done.
