Chapter 98 The Complainant
Jiang Zhizhi closed her eyes briefly, only to feel a warm liquid splash onto her face.
Bian Xiaoxiao, standing to the side, couldn't help but scream, her face covered in blood.
The criminal investigation captain called for reinforcements to rush over immediately, first taking Jiang Zhizhi and Bian Xiaoxiao back to the bookstore and untying the ropes binding their hands.
He then ordered others to dispose of the bodies of the two kidnappers.
As Zhou Xiye was packing up the spent cartridges and wrapping up his gun, he walked down from the water tower when he saw a tree move slightly in the distance. Immediately afterward, a figure slid down, jumped into the alley next to it, and quickly disappeared.
He stopped and looked in the direction where the figure had disappeared. He remained silent for a few seconds before continuing to walk down.
He met up with Li Zhuo in front of the car, and the two of them put the gun into the car in unison.
Li Zhuo couldn't hide his excitement: "Boss, after all these years, I still have the best chemistry with you. Please recruit me back into your special forces team."
Zhou Xiye closed the car door and tossed the car keys to Li Zhuo: "I don't have the ability to get people from headquarters. You drive back first, I have something to do."
Li Zhuo took the car keys and shook his head helplessly. If it weren't for what happened back then, it would have been Zhou Xiye who was transferred to headquarters.
In terms of ability and experience, who can surpass Zhou Xiye!
Zhou Xiye waited until Li Zhuo drove away before heading towards the bookstore, his mind filled with the image of Jiang Zhizhi and the hostage taking a step back.
This step gave them the opportunity to send the bullet through the mat between the two rafters of the sloping roof and strike the kidnapper's head.
The thin mat is breathable and the weakest point, making it difficult to aim at but also advantageous.
Therefore, Jiang Zhizhi knew where was the most suitable place to kill with a single blow!
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhizhi felt even more eager and quickened her pace.
...
Jiang Zhizhi took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off her face haphazardly. She saw that the female police officer next to her was still comforting Bian Xiaoxiao and was wiping her face with a handkerchief.
Bian Xiaoxiao sat in the chair, hugging her shoulders and trembling!
Just now, wasn't she calm, rational, and articulate?
Where has individual heroism gone right now?
And what he just said about scheming against himself!
Jiang Zhizhi grew angrier the more she thought about it. If it weren't for the two snipers' exceptional reaction and skill, she would be dead by now!
She couldn't swallow this insult.
She threw the blood-stained handkerchief on the ground and rushed towards Bian Xiaoxiao. Before the policewoman and Bian Xiaoxiao could react, she had already swiftly slapped Bian Xiaoxiao twice.
Bian Xiaoxiao, still looking weak and pitiful, was stunned by the two slaps. She instantly felt a burning pain on her face. When she looked up and glared at Jiang Zhizhi, she saw Zhou Xiye stepping in behind her.
His anger instantly turned into sorrow: "Why did you hit me? It wasn't me who asked the kidnappers to abduct you. Besides, I was the one who was comforting you the whole time."
The female police officer also disapproved of Jiang Zhizhi's behavior of hitting people right away, and frowned: "You two are both frightened, but you can't hit people."
Jiang Zhizhi sneered: "She knows very well why I hit her, so why is she pretending to be a pitiful little thing here? Who is she trying to fool?"
With tears in her eyes, Bian Xiaoxiao looked behind her and called out hesitantly, "Xiye..."
Jiang Zhizhi turned her head and realized that Zhou Xiye had already come in. It seemed that Bian Xiaoxiao was right after all; Zhou Xiye was indeed one of the snipers this time.
She turned and ran to Zhou Xiye's side, pouting slightly with a hint of grievance: "I didn't want to be a hostage, but Bian Xiaoxiao insisted on dragging me along. I was terrified. She kept telling the kidnappers, 'You'll definitely come to save us, you're so amazing...'"
Bian Xiaoxiao can pretend, but she will also immediately file a complaint.
Looking at Jiang Zhizhi's aggrieved expression, Zhou Xiye could guess what she was thinking, so he still cooperated with her: "Are you hurt? Should we go to the hospital for a check-up?"
Jiang Zhizhi immediately nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, I feel a lot of pain in my heart, I think I was scared."
Zhou Xiye looked at her healthy, rosy face, which still had traces of blood on it: "Let's go, I'll go to the hospital with you."
Jiang Zhizhi was satisfied and happily followed Zhou Xiye out with her hands behind her back.
Zhou Xiye didn't glance at Bian Xiaoxiao once from beginning to end.
Bian Xiaoxiao's face turned pale with anger. She never expected that Zhou Xiye would not even glance at her. Or had Zhou Xiye already noticed something?
Thinking of this, Bian Xiaoxiao suddenly felt panicked. Zhou Xiye was meticulous, and he would investigate anything he wanted to know to the very end.
If... if...
Bian Xiaoxiao didn't dare to think any further. She quickly stood up, thanked the female police officer next to her, and chased after Zhou Xiye.
Zhou Xiye knew Jiang Zhizhi was faking it, but he still took her to the hospital for a walk and then to the washroom to let her wash her face.
Jiang Zhizhi came out of the washroom, her face still wet with water droplets, and went straight up to Zhou Xiye: "Look, is it clean now?"
Zhou Xiye looked at the fair face so close to his eyes, clearly seeing her long eyelashes and her pink and moist lips. He swallowed hard and hummed, "It's clean."
Jiang Zhizhi wiped the water off her face with satisfaction: "You're amazing. I was so scared back then, and Bian Xiaoxiao kept scaring me too."
Zhou Xiye couldn't tell that she was scared at all; on the contrary, she remained relaxed and unconcerned. However, he still cooperated with her: "If you encounter a situation like this in the future, run if you can, and if you can't run, never provoke the bandits."
Jiang Zhizhi waved her hand and laughed, "As long as I don't run into Bian Xiaoxiao, I won't be so unlucky."
Without making a sound, he filed another complaint.
She originally wanted to say it directly, but that would involve too much talking, and what if she missed the point?
She wanted Zhou Xiye to know for himself that Bian Xiaoxiao's appearance was very strange. There was no such thing as a coincidence that she went to the bookstore and Bian Xiaoxiao happened to be there too.
Zhou Xiye didn't say anything, but accompanied Jiang Zhizhi out of the hospital with a smile in his eyes.
Bian Xiaoxiao stood by the roadside, looking at Zhou Xiye in disbelief. Was he still the same stern and extremely cold man?
He could clearly look at a woman with gentle eyes and a focused smile.
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became, so she walked towards Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi.
"Nishino, can we talk?"
Bian Xiaoxiao blocked Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi's path and spoke first.
The smile faded from Zhou Xiye's eyes, and he frowned as he looked at Bian Xiaoxiao: "I don't think it's necessary. Don't tear away your own last shred of dignity."
Jiang Zhizhi turned to look at Zhou Xiye after hearing this. Goodness, is he really that direct?
Bian Xiaoxiao's eyes reddened: "Xiye, isn't there some misunderstanding? I don't quite understand what you're saying. We've known each other for so many years, can't we even be ordinary friends?"
Zhou Xiye frowned: "I only have a long-standing friendship with Bian Zhan."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Zhizhi and said, "Let's go, there's still time to go to the mall."
Jiang Zhizhi's eyebrows curved into a smile, and she immediately agreed happily, "Okay."
He couldn't help but smile as he looked at Bian Xiaoxiao and her face, which was swollen like a pig's head.
He thought to himself, "I really used a lot of force just now. Look what I did to him."
Next time, I'll need to use more strength!
Bian Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi's backs, her hatred growing stronger.
Zhou Xiye, you'll regret this someday!
