As the two kidnappers were shot in the head and fell to the ground, the other two became alert.

The long-faced young man immediately crouched down and hid behind the corner of the wall, while the cold and fierce man immediately pounced behind the four hostages, intending to grab one of their necks and press the gun to the hostage's head.

But at that moment, the special forces had already broken through the door, and the sound of gunfire rang out. The cold and fierce man didn't have time to grab the hostage, so he rolled backward and hid behind a table. The long-faced young man also rushed to the table, but he was a bit slow and was shot in the thigh and abdomen.

"Stop right there, or I'll kill all four of them," the cold and fierce man shouted, firing a shot at the calf of the handsome young man among the hostages, causing him to scream in agony.

"Stop," Zhao Ming ordered everyone to stop at the door, his expression not looking good. They were ultimately a bit too slow and failed to instantly kill the other two. Now, although the kidnappers had moved away from the hostages, they were blocked by the corner of the room, making it impossible to shoot from this angle. Rushing in suddenly could solve the problem, but at least one or two hostages would likely be shot.

"Didn't you get them?" Wang Xiao, who had to command the entire operation and hadn't rushed to the front, arrived at this moment.

"Two are hiding in the corner," Zhao Ming nodded, his expression heavy.

Wang Xiao brought a computer. Since the rat with the camera was still on the beam, they could still see the surveillance video, clearly showing the two kidnappers hiding behind the corner table, guns pointed at the hostages.

"Listen up, everyone outside, get out of here now, or I'll kill all four of them," the cold and fierce man roared.

"Killing them will lead to your own death. Surrender now, and you might get a lighter sentence," Wang Xiao replied to the kidnappers while gesturing to Zhao Ming and the others. Zhao Ming understood and quickly brought an iron door over. The purpose was simple: to suddenly push the iron door in, blocking between the hostages and the kidnappers.

"Don't try to fool me. Do you think I'll have a good life if you catch me? I'm telling you again, get out now, or we'll all die together," the cold and fierce man shouted, his voice icy.

"Alright, we'll withdraw, but you have to promise not to harm the hostages," Wang Xiao said, gesturing to Zhao Ming and the others again. Zhao Ming and three others dragged the iron door into the room, moving quickly and quietly without making a sound. Normally, they would negotiate with the kidnappers, trying to meet their demands to ensure the safety of the hostages, but this type of ruthless kidnapper was different. They had already planned to kill the hostages to eliminate witnesses, so letting them succeed wouldn't help. They had to act decisively and seize the opportunity.

However, at that moment, a mirror was pushed out from the kidnappers' side, stopping right in front of the door and leaning against the wall. From the kidnappers' perspective, they could see Zhao Ming and the others in the mirror.

"Trouble," Zhao Ming's expression changed, and the three special forces members pushed the iron door out simultaneously as Wang Xiao and the others rushed in.

"Damn, you dare to trick me," the cold and fierce man was furious, aiming his gun at one of the hostages' heads.

Although Zhao Ming and the others were fast, the speed of pushing the door and running couldn't compare to the speed of pulling the trigger, so the hostages were in extreme danger at that moment.

At that moment, a figure appeared at the window, and a throwing knife shot out. This person was Su Jing.

"No angle," Shao Le and Lao Fang, at the sniper position, saw Su Jing through the scope and their expressions turned serious. Su Jing's timing was impeccable, faster than Zhao Ming and Wang Xiao, as if he could see the situation clearly. However, there was no angle from the window to shoot the two hiding kidnappers; otherwise, they would have already taken them out.

Su Jing's throw was powerful, and the knife moved as fast as a bullet. After entering the window, it suddenly made a large curve, like a lightning bolt, and with a "whoosh," it pierced the cold and fierce man's forehead.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

At the same time, Wang Xiao and the others rushed out, riddling the cold and fierce man and the long-faced young man with bullets. The long-faced young man, already critically injured from the shots in his thigh and abdomen, was too slow to shoot the hostages.

"Quick, bandage his leg," Wang Xiao pointed to the handsome young man who had been shot in the calf. Without hesitation, the special forces quickly untied the hostages, treated their wounds, and checked their conditions.

"Did I see that right? The knife just curved?" Zhao Ming and the other special forces members stared at the knife in the cold and fierce man's forehead.

"You didn't see it wrong," Wang Xiao was also shocked. A slight curve could be explained by air currents, but such a large curve was unbelievable. It was like the reincarnation of Li Xiaofei's flying knife.

"Thank you, officers, and who is that flying knife expert?" The handsome young man asked, his face full of admiration and gratitude. He loved reading martial arts novels, especially Li Xiaofei's flying knife, and he never thought he would see such a skill in real life.

Two girls among the hostages, Wang Yan and a teenage girl, also showed a hint of curiosity. They had just seen the masked man at the window and the miraculous flying knife that saved them, leaving them deeply impressed. The handsome young man, however, was still screaming in pain from his leg wound, completely unaware of the flying knife.

"Hehe, he is..." Zhao Ming smiled.

"He is one of our special forces' flying knife experts," Wang Xiao interrupted Zhao Ming, giving all the special forces a look to keep quiet because Su Jing had told him he didn't want to reveal his identity. Wang Xiao guessed that one of the hostages was someone Su Jing knew but didn't want to meet. Whatever the reason, Su Jing had the right to keep his identity hidden.

"Can I get his autograph?" The handsome young man asked hopefully.

"He is a secret member, and his identity can't be revealed," Wang Xiao said, finding it hard to believe that the young man, who had lost an ear and a finger, could still think about getting an autograph.

Wang Xiao walked outside the abandoned factory and saw Su Jing, smiling. "Good job, no wonder you asked me for a flying knife. Your flying knife skills are amazing. Where did you learn them?"

"Hehe, from an old man," Su Jing smiled, not wanting to reveal that it was his first time using a flying knife. The curve and accuracy were entirely controlled by his mental power, changing direction mid-flight.

"Does that old man take on apprentices?" Zhao Ming asked.

"He has passed away," Su Jing shook his head.

"What a pity," Zhao Ming said, clearly wanting to learn the skill.

"Damn, did I see it wrong, or did the knife just curve?" Shao Le and Lao Fang ran over with their sniper rifles, shocked. They had seen the knife curve through the scope, but not as clearly.

"You didn't see it wrong, I was just about to ask for an apprenticeship," Zhao Ming laughed.

"Cough, I just happened to do well this time. Next time might not be as accurate. Now that everyone is safe, I'll be leaving," Su Jing waved his hand.

"Thank you so much this time. Are you sure you won't stay? The hostages' parents are wealthy, and if they knew you were the biggest savior, they would reward you handsomely," Wang Xiao said.

"I just helped a little. No reward for no work. Remember not to reveal my identity," Su Jing said seriously.

"Don't worry," Wang Xiao nodded and said to Shao Le, "Shao Le, take Su Jing home."

"Sure thing," Shao Le was happy to get closer to Su Jing, hoping to get a cigarette or learn the flying knife skill.

Su Jing first withdrew all the rats, which he had planned to use for an attack, but the situation changed too quickly, and the rats couldn't be used in time. He got into the car with his dog and drove away.
