Chapter 58
After Jiang Aichen left, Lin Anyu booked a taxi and headed straight to the Central Business District.
It was a weekday and there were not many people in the mall.
But there were still quite a few elderly and young men and women coming out of the mall gate here and there.
Lin Anyu was sitting in the back seat of the car. She frowned and stared at the door seriously.
"Miss, aren't you going to get off the car yet?" the driver urged.
"Get off." Lin Anyu replied briefly, "How much?"
After paying the bill, she walked into the first floor of the shopping mall without any hesitation.
Just as she saw at the door, the mall was calm as usual.
Everything seemed as if nothing had ever happened.
But for some reason, Lin Anyu always felt that the atmosphere at the scene was a little weird and scary.
"Miss, do you want hand cream?" At this time, a male shopping guide stood next to Lin Anyu and said.
Lin Anyu glanced at him calmly.
The male shopping guide was ridiculously thin, with obvious depressions on his cheeks, and looked sickly.
Lin Anyu pretended to be neither distant nor polite, and said, "Can I try it?"
"Sure." He quickly unpacked the product.
While rubbing Lin Anyu's hand, he asked, "Miss, why are you at the mall at this time? Don't you need to go to work?"
Lin Anyu wiped the hand cream on his hands and answered easily: "The company thinks that I am not capable enough, so they gave me half a day off to let me reflect on whether I should continue to stay in the company."
The shopping guide applied hand cream on Lin Anyu's hands and said, "Your company's assessment system is quite strict."
Lin Anyu raised his head and glanced at the fourth floor opposite him without leaving any trace, then answered nonchalantly, "Yes."
After Lin Anyu finished speaking, a light fragrance filled his nose.
Lin Anyu lowered his head and sniffed it, then sighed, "It smells pretty good."
The salesperson said, "Yes, we use the morning fragrance of Northeastern trees. The first whiff makes you feel like you are in the forest."
Lin Anyu raised his eyes and a scornful smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
She agreed: "Indeed."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt dizzy.
She stared at the skinny salesperson in front of her in disbelief: "What did you put on me?"
The shopping guide smiled wantonly: "Good stuff."
-
On the other side, after an unknown amount of time, Jiang Aichen led a dozen police cars to the entrance of the mall.
As soon as they arrived, they saw people pouring out of the mall.
They shouted and ran outside vigorously.
Jiang Aichen didn't realize it, he quickly opened the car door and got out, grabbed someone and asked, "What's going on?"
The man was obviously frightened, and he said quickly: "There is a bomb, there is a bomb on that man."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Aichen looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, he saw a middle-aged man with a circle of bombs tied to his body trying to move left and right, as if seeking help.
Jiang Aichen was about to walk over quickly, but Gu Beizhi stopped him: "Go find Lin Anyu, and leave the bomb disposal and scene control to us."
For some reason, Jiang Aichen developed a sense of trust in them.
He ran into the mall against the crowd.
Gu Beizhi watched his back disappear into the building.
He called Gu Xingnan over: "Xingnan, can we tear it down?"
Gu Xingnan observed the bomb: "Okay."
Gu Beizhi: "Okay, I'll go borrow a bulletproof vest for you."
Gu Xingnan thought for a while and said, "Hmm."
-
Inside the mall, the crowd had basically dispersed. Jiang Aichen looked at the empty shops, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
He went straight to the sleep-aid room on the fourth floor.
The lights inside were off, and there was no sign of life.
Without hesitation, he ran straight to the monitoring room.
The security guard in the monitoring room had already run away, so he relied on his experience to retrieve several hours of mall surveillance footage from the monitoring room.
Finally, he saw a familiar figure in a small window.
As soon as the figure entered the mall, he started chatting with a person dressed as a shopping guide. The two seemed to be chatting happily. Lin Anyu did not forget to look up at the fourth floor.
Jiang Aichen found the corresponding surveillance camera, and sure enough, he saw Xu Jinshu at the end of that surveillance camera.
What does she mean? Could it be that he was hinting to him that this shopping guide knew Xu Jinshu?
Jiang Aichen was guessing, and the next second, he watched Lin Anyu fall down.
The salesperson then gave her emergency treatment, as if telling others that she had fainted due to a sudden illness.
Sure enough, just as the shopping guide had thought, a circle of people gathered around, shouting and seeming to be giving the shopping guide advice.
Then, in front of everyone, the shopping guide openly carried Lin Anyu towards the elevator.
The subsequent surveillance seemed to be deliberately concealed, and Jiang Aichen did not make any other discoveries.
Sudden--
Bang——
A huge explosion sounded from a distance, with a muffled sound, as if it was ready to blow everything through at any time.
Captain Gu!
Jiang Aichen didn't have time to think, he quickly rushed out of the mall.
The door was calm as usual, and Gu Xingnan was kneeling to remove the bomb from the hostage.
The scene he anticipated did not appear.
Jiang Aichen breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Beizhi, who had finished commanding in an orderly manner, walked over from not far away.
Seeing that Jiang Aichen was still in deep pain, he seemed to have guessed something. He put his hand on Jiang Aichen's shoulder to comfort him.
After a while, he asked, "Where is Lin Anyu?"
"He was taken away by someone." Jiang Aichen said.
Gu Beizhi was alert: "Who is it?"
"I don't know," Jiang Aichen said truthfully, "He was wearing the clothes and hat of a shopping guide, so I couldn't see him clearly. But Lin Anyu glanced at Xu Jinshu on the fourth floor while chatting with him, so I suspect that the shopping guide who kidnapped Lin Anyu knew Xu Jinshu."
Gu Beizhi was in deep thought.
"Captain Jiang!" Suddenly, a man came running over from not far away and shouted, "There was an explosion in the underground warehouse of the mall!"
"Underground warehouse?" Jiang Aichen murmured.
The scene in the surveillance video of Lin Anyu being carried into the elevator suddenly came to my mind.
Did they go to the underground warehouse?
He ran towards the underground warehouse desperately
Although Gu Beizhi and Pei Jingji did not understand why Jiang Aichen was fighting so desperately, they knew very well that there must be something in the underground warehouse that Jiang Aichen cared about.
They followed in tacit understanding.
-
The underground warehouse was filled with smoke and visibility was extremely low.
Other police colleagues who were working saw them coming and handed them a protective suit.
Jiang Aichen didn't wear any, he just put on a mask and rushed in.
Gu Beizhi and the others followed closely behind.
Before they could take a few more steps, they saw several police colleagues carrying a person out of the thick smoke.
She had extensive burns all over her body and her face was almost unrecognizable.
There are only a few pieces of clothing left... How can they be so similar...
Jiang Aichen felt his body was extremely heavy, as if he would collapse at any moment.
Gu Beizhi and others who rushed over also recognized these pieces of clothing.
Chen Shuhao: "This...is this the boss?"
Gu Xingnan, who had a blank expression on his face even when defusing a bomb with his bare hands, could no longer suppress the expression on his face.
Only Pei Jingji said calmly: "Let's go to the forensic room first. I'll do a DNA test."
As he spoke, Pei Jingji's voice trembled unconsciously.
Gu Beizhi glanced at him sideways, and he commanded: "The closer it gets to this point, the more we must not panic. Shen Shuhao, it shouldn't be difficult for you to draw the appearance of the deceased."
Shen Shuhao was emotionally broken, but he still agreed with a professional spirit: "Well, it's not difficult..."
Gu Beizhi pinched Shen Shuhao's shoulder, he lowered his head to hide his expression, and praised: "You didn't yell this time, you are great!"
"Yeah." Shen Shuhao said.
-
When they returned to the police station from the scene, everyone's aura was heavy, as if a thick layer of dark clouds had covered the ceiling of the police station.
Shen Shuhao sat in front of a desk, sketching several photos on the table.
As I was painting, I couldn't help but draw Lin Anyu's face.
"No, no, no!" Shen Shuhao quickly crumpled up the white paper in front of him.
Gu Xingnan, who was sitting next to him, glanced at him with eyes full of heartache. He comforted him: "Calm down, calm down."
This time, Shen Shuhao could no longer suppress his emotions. He stood up and yelled at Gu Xingnan, "This corpse could be the boss. He taught us crime-solving skills and made us the boss of Interpol! How can you ask me to stay calm?"
Gu Xingnan, who had been suppressing his emotions, could no longer suppress them. He vented all his emotions: "What if this person is not the boss? If you had drawn it earlier, wouldn't we be relieved earlier?"
Shen Shuhao: "Since you don't trust me, why do you let me paint? Am I a god? How can I paint when it's burnt like this?"
Gu Xingnan pointed at him and said, "You can't draw? Is there anyone else in this world who can draw? Do you remember what the boss said when you were abroad?!"
Shen Shuhao was silent, and his mind unconsciously recalled the words that Song Luo had teased him when he was abroad.
"Master Shen, that's why I say you have talent," Song Luo in the memory was smiling brightly, "It took me two whole years to learn light and shadow analysis, and you learned it in just one day."
"Mr. Shen, you are too modest. In the portrait circle, if you dare to say you are second, who dares to say you are first?"
Shen Shuhui didn't say anything, but Gu Xingnan knew what he was thinking.
He said, "Calm down and draw slowly, you will definitely be able to draw it."
Shen Shuhao nodded: "Yeah."
Feeling that the office was too noisy, Jiang Aichen walked out of the office quietly and went to the balcony.
He lit a cigarette, the scarlet sparks gradually devoured the straight white cigarette body, and the turbid smoke from the burning left its own trajectory along the air.
Not long after checking the surveillance, Jiang Nan came over from not far away and called out, "Captain Jiang."
Jiang Aichen glanced at him sideways, but did not answer. Instead, he asked, "What clues does the surveillance have?"
As if it was difficult to say, Jiang Nan said hesitantly: "No, there is no sign of Xu Jinshu's car leaving in the surveillance."
Jiang Aichen: "Does Xu Jinshu have any other cars?"
Jiang Nan: "At least the traffic police said that Xu Jinshu only has one car, which is the one parked in the parking lot now."
"Let's go and see what they have found." Jiang Aichen threw the cigarette butt into the trash can next to him.
"Captain Jiang!" Jiang Nan suddenly shouted while standing in place.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Nan: "Is she Song Luo or Lin Anyu now?"
Jiang Aichen: "Is there any difference?"
"There is a difference," Jiang Nan said quickly, "If it was Song Lue, she would be able to escape from there, but if it was Lin Anyu..."
How should she escape?
Jiang Nan didn't dare to think about it.
What will happen to a little mascot who is usually taken care of by them? When she encounters such a thing, what will happen to her?
"You're overthinking it. She's not as useless as you think."
Jiang Aichen had just returned to the office and Shen Shuhao had just finished drawing the portrait, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Xingnan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not her."
"Yeah." Shen Shuhao replied.
Almost at the same time, Meng Qirang and Pei Jingji walked in holding the test reports.
Pei Jingji's voice was filled with excitement: "The results are out, the match coefficient is too low, the deceased is not Lin Anyu."
Jiang Aichen calmed down and asked: "Did you find out who the deceased is in the DNA database?"
Pei Jingji said: "The deceased is Chen Tang, a suspect wanted nationwide."
Gu Beizhi: "Jiang Nan, follow this line of thought first and find out who the deceased had contact with or knew before his death!"
"yes."
Everyone was just about to investigate along this line of thought.
After hesitating for a long time, Meng Qirang suddenly said, "Captain Jiang, I have an idea, but I'm not sure if it's right."
"You say." Jiang Aichen said.
Meng Qirang solemnly said, "I think we can investigate Chu Yanbo first."
Gu Beizhi: "Who is Chu Yanbo?"
Meng Qirang: "I don't know either, but I can be sure that he and Xu Jinshu must have some connection."
Gu Beizhi: "How did you know?"
Meng Qirang: "A month ago, Anyu took me to investigate Xu Jinshu. At that time, we found the fingerprints of Xu Jinshu and Chu Yinbo on a clue. So if we want to investigate Xu Jinshu quickly, I think we can start with Chu Yinbo."
Everyone was shocked, except Jiang Aichen, whose expression remained normal.
Gu Beizhi: "Why did she take you to investigate Xu Jinshu? What does she know?"
Meng Qirang: "She said that the last criminal she caught before she lost her memory was Xu Jinshu, so she has been quietly investigating him for the past three years."
"Didn't she lose her memory?" Jiang Nan couldn't believe it. He asked quickly, "How could she remember..."
Thinking of a possibility, Jiang Nan suddenly felt that his imagination was a bit ridiculous.
He laughed dryly and said as if to brainwash himself: "How is it possible..."
Pei Jingji said: "Could it be that she has been pretending all these years?"
Thinking of this, everyone was shocked.
Is she pretending?
After three whole years together, they didn't even notice?
What a thoughtful person he is...
Gu Beizhi: "Did she tell me what crime Xu Jinshu committed?"
Meng Qirang shook his head: "She didn't say that."
Shen Shuhao was a little anxious: "Think about it again, she said she didn't say anything strange."
Meng Qirang thought about it for a while and said, "It seems a little strange."
"Where?" Gu Beizhi asked.
Meng Qirang answered: "At that time, Shen Shuhao asked her if she had to be a criminal police officer. She said that she didn't have to be a criminal police officer. She could be a special police officer, a civilian police officer, or a drug enforcement officer."
Narcotics police?
Gu Beizhi, Pei Jingji, Chen Shuhui, and Gu Xingnan were stunned for a moment.
Noticing that something was wrong with them, Meng Qirang asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Beizhi explained: "After returning to China, our captain joined the anti-drug police force."
Everyone at the scene couldn't help but stand there in a daze.
This is no longer simply information that they can accept.
Meng Qirang said tentatively: "So she..."
Jiang Aichen clenched his hands into fists.
So... Lin Anyu took the initiative to let Xu Jinshu capture him!
At this point, Jiang Aichen finally understood what Lin Anyu said to Li Zhe in prison - as for evidence, Xu Jinshu should have more.
The purpose of her saying this was not to trick him into believing something, but to confirm whether there was really evidence of her crime in Xu Jinshu's home.
If he kept it, she would definitely find a way to get it next.
So... when she was in prison, she deliberately sent him away and asked him to come to the police station to ask Gu Beizhi and others for help.
I clearly asked Gu Beizhi and the others to go to the Business Building to help. All it took was a phone call...
But she insisted that he drive back himself.
Her ultimate goal was to be captured by Xu Jinshu, and then risk her life to obtain evidence.
Go and get the evidence that Xu Jinshu killed Ye Pulan.
Same as three years ago.
Always risking his own life, totally ignoring them...
Completely ignoring their concerns when they knew she was on a dangerous mission.
Jiang Aichen slammed the table hard.
She always puts everyone first and never thinks of herself!
How conceited must she be to think she can handle everything by herself!
Everyone was shocked by Jiang Aichen's anger.
Gu Beizhi: "What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Aichen ordered angrily: "Everyone! Investigate all surveillance cameras in Beihai. Any surveillance cameras on the previous stop that can avoid surveillance must be carefully screened again and again."
"If there is any situation, please contact me immediately! Do you understand?"
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.
-
On the other side, the sleeping Lin Anyu heard the anxious voices of several people.
"Boss, we seem to have been discovered by the police. They are gathering around us. Let's run away."
"No," the man called the boss said calmly, "They are our last bargaining chip. With them around, the cops won't dare to kill us."
"Then we can just take one, and forget about this note."
As soon as the man finished speaking, he was greeted by silence.
Is this note referring to her?
In a daze, Lin Anyu forced a sarcastic smile.
It's a bit irritating to be scolded in person.
"When I wake up, I will kill you all!" Lin Anyu said as if he was talking in a dream.
As if he heard her words, the man said, "Boss, you heard it, right? She said she would kill us when she wakes up."
Even though he knew she was going to kill him, the man called the boss still said, "No, you can leave the others alone, but you must take her away!"
"Boss," the man continued, "if you don't want her to go back, we can kill her."
"no."
Lin Anyu did not hear the following words clearly. She just felt her head was heavy and she fell asleep soon.
When she woke up again, what she saw was a group of disheveled children and women.
Her eyes darkened.
The moment she entered the mall, she felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, as she expected, Xu Jinshu and his men kidnapped many children and women.
Lin Anyu struggled hard several times and found that his hands and feet were tightly bound by a hemp rope.
Her eyes calmly scanned the entire environment.
From the bare roof below and the dark grey pillars around, Lin Anyu could tell that she was in an abandoned unfinished building.
There were so many people in their corner, and the sobbing sounds mixed with the crying of children made Lin Anyu feel like her ears were about to explode.
But in this situation, they use crying to relieve their emotions appropriately, which is beneficial to their bodies.
Xu Jinshu and Chu Yanbo never showed up.
They felt relieved to place them here.
The crying around them continued, and Lin Anyu calmly suggested, "Do you want to take a rest?"
Seeing that she looked calm from the moment she woke up, one of the girls with short hair couldn't help but be alert: "Did they let you blend in with us as an undercover?"
Lin Anyu stared at her with calm eyes. She didn't know that although he was just a child of seventeen or eighteen years old, there was an extraordinary calmness in his eyes.
Those who know her would think she is naturally brave, while those who don’t would think she has undergone some special training.
Lin Anyu chose not to lie: "No. I knew you were kidnapped by them, so I pretended to let my guard down and let them kidnap me to save you."
The short-haired girl continued to ask: "Why should we believe you?"
Lin Anyu: "There's no need for me to lie to you."
As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately asked curiously, "How were you captured?"
The girl continued, "I have always had trouble sleeping, so today I came to see Dr. Xu for help."
"Who knows what would have happened..." The girl started sobbing halfway through her words, "He had just fallen asleep, and when I woke up again, I found myself being arrested."
Lin Anyu seemed to have guessed Xu Jinshu's intentions. She said, "Don't worry. Xu Jinshu just wants to use us to exchange for his chance to escape."
"So we won't be in any danger for now."
"You also said it's temporary." said another girl.
Lin Anyu said confidently: "So in order to prevent you from being out of danger only temporarily, I came here."
“Why are you…” the girl said in surprise, “You’ll die! They’re good at killing people. If you come in like this, you’ll die too!”
"I'm a policeman!" Lin Anyu said, "If I can save you, I can give up everything, even if it means giving up my life."
"You come to save us without a gun. Why should we trust you?" One of the girls was obviously a little unconvinced and she said sarcastically.
"With a pistol?" The girl's tone was unfriendly. The short-haired girl was too lazy to be nice to her. She said, "She has a pistol. If she is taken away by the kidnappers, can we still survive?"
"You think you've lived too long."
As soon as the girl who stood up for her finished speaking, Lin Anyu calmly glanced at everyone's faces.
Seeing that they were still staring at him vigilantly.
"If you don't want to believe it, then don't believe it." Lin Anyu said calmly.
She didn't expect them to be obedient.
The entire floor fell silent for a moment, and the atmosphere was a little scary.
The faint sounds of various small insects came from all directions. Lin Anyu listened silently without saying a word.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, the ground they were sitting on shook violently, as if something had exploded.
Beep, beep…
There seemed to be a hole in the edge of the ceiling above my head, and raindrops dripped evenly from it.
"It's raining outside," Lin Anyu said, "it must be very humid."
"You still have the mind to care about the rain." said a girl who was crying breathlessly.
"Let me tell you a story." Lin Anyu said suddenly.
"What's the story?"
Everyone on the entire floor looked at her in unison.
"Do you know why when kidnappers want to kidnap someone, the first thing they consider is always girls and children?" Lin Anyu said.
"Because we have no ability to resist." said one of the girls.
"Yes," Lin Anyu did not answer directly, but said, "But ask yourself, are you really powerless?"
After that, Lin Anyu said: "As long as you have courage, you can become everyone you want to be."
Just as Lin Anyu finished speaking, two men came up the stairs with flashlights in their hands.
The pitch-black night mixed with blindingly bright lights came into view.
Lin Anyu was shaken so hard that he could hardly open his eyes.
Before they could adapt, two men slowly walked towards them.
Chu Yanbo turned off the flashlight in his hand, then picked up a woman's hair and waved the knife on the woman's face several times.
He said viciously: "Don't you know that your crying sounds ugly? Shut up, if you make another sound, I will kill you right now."
Chu Yanbo's warning was obviously much more effective.
A group of girls pursed their lips tightly, trying their best not to make any sound.
Just the tearful eyes, showing the grievance of my emotions
Chu Yanbo gave a mocking laugh and threw the woman's hair out of his hand: "That's right. If you keep crying, you'll see some blood."
After he finished speaking, he was about to stand up when he suddenly noticed Lin Anyu staring at him with a mocking look on his face, as if he was watching a clown show.
Chu Yanbo has always hated being looked at in this way.
He quickly grabbed Lin Anyu's chin and said with a warning: "Now you are the trash, do you understand?"
"Please stop looking at me like a fool."
"How much of a failure do you have to be to be so afraid of others looking at you like this?" Lin Anyu said.
"Who's scared?" Chu Yanbo's emotions instantly went out of control because of Lin Anyu's words.
"If you're not scared, then what's wrong with your expression now?" Lin Anyu raised the corner of his lip and said, "It can't be because you're happy, then there's something wrong with your facial nerves."
Lin Anyu paused for a second, then smiled even more wantonly. She said provocatively, "You're laughing like you're crying."
Lin Anyu concluded fearlessly: "Like □□!"
"Damn it, you stinky bitch." Chu Yinbo, who had endured to the limit, cursed directly, and his right hand uncontrollably slapped Lin Anyu's face hard.
A clean and crisp sound spread throughout the quiet floor.
"Ah——" The girls behind Lin Anyu immediately exclaimed.
On the contrary, the person involved, Lin Anyu, said nothing. She stubbornly turned her slapped face around. With her red and swollen cheeks, she continued to look into Chu Yanbo's eyes fearlessly.
As if she was very satisfied with Chu Yinbo's performance, she slowly uttered three words: "More like it."
Chu Yanbo was so irritated that he just raised his hand to give another slap, but as soon as he raised his hand, his wrist was grabbed by another gentle man.
Lin Anyu raised his head and stared at her.
On the way, the gentle man's eyes met hers for a second, and then he said, "Old Chu, that's enough."
"Boss!" Chu Yanbo said angrily.
"Don't be fooled," Xu Jinshu said, "She did it on purpose."
As he spoke, Xu Jinshu's eyes fell on Lin Anyu's face: "She is trying to find out some information, or verifying some conjecture of hers."
"Try not to talk to her until we leave the country."
Chu Yanbo released the hand that was restraining Lin Anyu's chin and said, "Boss, what are you afraid of? Didn't we inject Song Luo with the potion that can kill her?"
"She is now that good-for-nothing Lin Anyu, not Song Lue!"
Xu Jinshu didn't say anything, but just cast a complicated look at Lin Anyu.
Lin Anyu was not panicked at all. She said, "No wonder my other personality hasn't come out these days. It turns out that you guys are the ones behind this."
Xu Jinshu asked calmly: "Do you know?"
"Yes, not only do I know that, I also know the time when you injected me with that drug." Lin Anyu said, and did not forget to add, "It was the night when Song Lue went to investigate you."
"No wonder, when I woke up, I saw a blood spot on my right arm. It turned out that you gave me an injection."
"Yes," Chu Yanbo didn't notice that Lin Anyu was not right at all. He continued, "You are so good at reasoning. Do you want to guess where this place is?"
Lin Anyu was silent for a while and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the B&B."
Then, Lin Anyu said: "So, the owner of the B&B is also one of yours."
Chu Yanbo was not at all flustered by her discovering his secret. He said proudly, "Yes, we didn't want to do anything to Song Luo, but she was courting death and actually found this place. Of course we had to strike first and kill her."
Lin Anyu didn't care about that. She continued to ask, "Then what was your purpose in sending Li Zhe to blow up the mall?"
Chu Yanbo smiled sinisterly and said, "Of course it's for you."
Although Lin Anyu was tied up, her voice was as calm as usual. She asked back, "For me?"
"Yes," Chu Yinbo said, "In order to see whether Song Luo should be eliminated or not."
Lin Anyu's eyes darkened, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
She said, "So, your conclusion is that it should be removed?"
Chu Yinbo: "Yes, she doesn't deserve to live, but you can."
"Chu Yinbo!" Seeing Chu Yinbo talking more and more, Xu Jinshu immediately spoke out to stop him.
As soon as Xu Jinshu spoke, Chu Yanbo realized what he had just said to Lin Anyu.
The arrogant eyes immediately turned flustered.
Lin Anyu tried to straighten himself and said, "Why are you so nervous?"
"Killing Song Luo, I can't thank you enough. I didn't want that consciousness for a long time. It's just that you got rid of her, so I can finally enjoy this body alone. Not to mention it's quite comfortable."
This time, Lin Anyu's words touched Xu Jinshu's sore spot. The casualness in his eyes disappeared, and he said, "What did you say?"
"I said thank you for helping me get rid of Song Luo," Lin Anyu continued, "You should have heard the story of dodder fighting for a host. Song Luo and I are two dodders, and this movable body is the host we are fighting for."
"You said you helped me get rid of a dodder, so I could have this body all to myself. I can't thank you enough," Lin Anyu said, "Why do you have to be afraid of me?"
This time, Lin Anyu's words also angered Xu Jinshu. He pinched Lin Anyu's chin and forced her to look into his eyes: "I hope you remember that although I kept you, it doesn't mean that you really deserve to exist in this world more than Song Luo? Understand?"
Lin Anyu laughed mockingly and said fearlessly: "So you like to play substitute literature."
Lin Anyu continued, "So, when you penetrated this body, was it me or Song Luo that you saw?"
Xu Jinshu's expression was dazed for a few seconds.
He let go of her and stood up to leave.
Suddenly, a sharp police siren sounded from downstairs.
Jiang Aichen and the others are here.
Lin Anyu was obviously relieved.
Finally, they were dragged here without any damage.
"What's going on?" Xu Jinshu asked.
"I don't know, Boss." Chu Yinbo said, and immediately pointed at Lin Anyu, "It's her. She must have left some clues on the road."
"That's impossible," Xu Jinshu immediately denied Chu Yinbo's guess, "She was fainting just now."
"What's going on?" Chu Yinbo asked, "How did these notes find their way here?"
"Did you miss someone?" Lin Anyu reminded.
"who?"
Lin Anyu said: "Song Luo."
"You just said that Song Lue found this place a few days ago." Lin Anyu continued, "Do you think that when Song Lue found this place, he would not leave any clues?"
"Do you really think that an experienced detective would make such a reckless mistake?"
Xu Jinshu and Chu Yanbo's eyes all fell on Lin Anyu.
"Release us immediately," Lin Anyu said, "otherwise, you will be punished for multiple crimes, which you cannot bear."
Lin Anyu's warning seemed to have no effect on Xu Jinshu. He said, "Do you think we can survive even if we are not punished for multiple crimes?"
Xu Jinshu was not afraid at all: "We committed a capital crime from the very beginning."
Lin Anyu's eyes darkened.
Her warnings were useless, and she didn't know whether the sirens downstairs would irritate him.
She silently watched the movements of the two people.
Xu Jinshu then lifted her up by her arm.
She was then taken to a stool and tied up again.
"What are you doing?" Lin Anyu asked.
"Don't talk." Xu Jinshu said, he took out Lin Anyu's mobile phone, unlocked the password lock with facial recognition, and logged into the background WeChat.
Lin Anyu knew what he was going to do, so she said, "Can you untie the ropes on my legs? Do you think I'm really comfortable sitting like this as a hostage?"
"Boss." Chu Yinbo shouted, as if seeking Xu Jinshu's opinion.
"Please solve it." Xu Jinshu said as he made a video call to Jiang Aichen using Lin Anyu's phone.
Jiang Aichen and his team, who were just about to arrive to surround the abandoned unfinished building, got out of the police car.
"Jiang Aichen," Gu Beizhi looked at the unfinished building without any sound or light, "Are you sure it's here?"
"Yes, it can't be wrong. This is the clue my master left for me." Jiang Aichen said.
It was not until he saw Chu Yanbo's car disappear from the surveillance camera that Jiang Aichen guessed that this B&B would be the base of Xu Jinshu and his gang.
Sure enough, when he was following the trail, he found the clues left by Song Luo that belonged only to their master and disciple.
Gu Beizhi said: "Gu Xingnan, you go..."
He was still waiting for the arrangements to be completed when Jiang Aichen's cell phone suddenly rang.
In order not to disturb Xu Jinshu and the others, Jiang Aichen wanted to turn off his phone directly, but when he glanced at it, he saw the note on the phone - Lin Anyu.
Sure enough, he was still alive.
Jiang Aichen felt his heart pounding.
He answered the video call without hesitation.
What immediately caught my eye was Xu Jinshu's face, which did not show any hostility.
Behind him, Lin Anyu was sitting on a chair and Chu Yanbo was tying the rope around her.
He narrowed his eyes, full of warning.
"Xu Jinshu, let them go." Jiang Aichen warned in a cold voice.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
After seeing Lin Anyu letting Chu Yanbo tie him up behind him.
They were all happy.
She is really not dead!
"Captain Jiang, don't be nervous, let's discuss something." Xu Jinshu said calmly.
Jiang Aichen said nothing.
Xu Jinshu continued, "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything. I'll tell you my conditions, and you decide the rest."
"For all the crimes I've committed over the years, I can't escape the death penalty," Xu Jinshu was very clear-headed, "but I have so many hostages this time, I can definitely let them be buried with me."
"But this is not the condition I'm offering you this time," Xu Jinshu said, "Let Chu Yanbo and I go, I'll take Lin Anyu away, and I can return the others to you unharmed."
Jiang Aichen continued to remain silent.
Instead, it was Gu Beizhi who first thought of calming Xu Jinshu's temper: "Okay, wait a moment, let's discuss it."
"Okay," Xu Jinshu said, "five minutes."
Gu Beizhi quickly muted the video on his phone.
"There are too many hostages, and it will be difficult to rescue them. Let's stabilize him first, and then we will find a way to rescue Lin Anyu later." Gu Beizhi said.
"No." Jiang Aichen refused without even thinking.
"Jiang Aichen," Gu Beizhi shouted, "Xu Jinshu said this to create a rift between the hostages and our police. If the masses lose confidence in our police, how should we carry out other work in the future? Do we really want all the hostages to die?"
"Think about it again, there must be other ways." Jiang Aichen said.
"Aichen, as a police officer, Lin Anyu must understand that this is our delaying tactic, but the public doesn't understand," Gu Beizhi said, "If they are really divided, how can we carry out the rescue plan later?"
Shen Shuhao was a little annoyed: "Fuck, if it was my boss who was kidnapped now, he would definitely be able to fight back and there would be no need for us to rescue him."
Although they now know that Lin Anyu still retains some of her memories, how do they know whether she can still remember the grappling and taekwondo that Song Lue learned?
Gu Xingnan calmed down and said, "Let's follow the care team's plan."
"Xiao Gu." Pei Jingji called out in an ambiguous tone, as if to stop him from continuing.
Gu Xingnan: "I believe that if Captain Song were here, he would definitely support saving others first."
After he said this, everyone at the scene fell silent.
What he said was absolutely right. If Song Luo were here, even if the murderer asked her to shoot herself in the head, she would do it without hesitation to save people.
As she said before, the reason for her existence is to protect this country.
-
The other side.
Lin Anyu put his left leg on his right leg and raised it up in a nonchalant manner.
"You've gone to so much trouble to capture so many people, and now you want to let them go," Lin Anyu analyzed, "You didn't want to take me away from the beginning, did you? You captured them to exchange them for me?"
"You should have told me earlier, if you had told me I would go with you, you would have let them go, I would not have resisted."
At this time, Xu Jinshu had also realized Lin Anyu's intention. He said, "You don't need to talk to me. At that time, you kept angering me and Chu Yinbo just to attract our attention."
"I'm afraid there are two purposes. One is to keep us within your sight and prevent us from going to other places to destroy my criminal souvenirs. The other is to let us focus our firepower on you so that we can't spare the energy to kill them."
Lin Anyu lowered his head and smiled: "I thought that with your intelligence, you should have noticed when I irritated you. I didn't expect that you only realized it now. Isn't it a bit late?"
Xu Jinshu stepped forward and pinched Lin Anyu's chin. His black eyes swayed left and right as he looked at Lin Anyu's face. He said with caution: "Are you Song Luo or Lin Anyu?"
This time, Lin Anyu didn't say anything. She frowned and stared at him, as if she was thinking.
After a while, she calmly stated, "This is the second time you've asked me this today."
"Given your personality, you wouldn't be so unconfident about your own things," Lin Anyu analyzed, "So, that night, you didn't have any..."
"Shut up," Xu Jinshu pinched Lin Anyu's cheek and forced her to shut her mouth. "You just need to know that it won't be long before the memories of you and Song Lue will completely disappear. In the end, the one who will be left will be Song Lue, who has no memory of ever having had any."
Lin Anyu: “…”
Suddenly, there was a bang and the sound of a gunshot hitting the ground came from the direction of the crowd.
Lin Anyu and Xu Jinshu turned their heads to look over.
Xu Jinshu's face was filled with displeasure: "Old Chu, we have limited bullets, use them sparingly."
"Okay." Chu Yanbo agreed.
Lin Anyu's eyes swept over the pistol.
Her tense consciousness relaxed instantly.
That gun...
She remembers!
The impact force that caused the wound to Ye Pulan is the same.
The gun has a capacity of eight rounds. Ye Pulan had three of them on him, and one was scattered at the scene.
Now I have used up another one.
There are at most three rounds left in that gun now.
Three shots...
Three shots...
Lin Anyu kept giving himself hints.
It wasn't until Chu Yanbo moved to his side that Lin Anyu quickly stretched out his legs and tripped over him.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Yanbo staggered.
"What's wrong?" Xu Jinshu turned around and asked.
Chu Yanbo glared at Lin Anyu and said, "Nothing."
Xu Jinshu: "The police are discussing a plan, and we can't make any mistakes here."
Chu Yanbo: “Yeah.”
As soon as he finished answering, Lin Anyu kicked Chu Yanbo hard at the knee. Chu Yanbo was caught off guard and almost fell down in pain.
"I he..." Before Chu Yinbo turned around and could finish his words, Lin Anyu turned around and pressed one leg of the wooden chair on Chu Yinbo's feet.
Without giving Chu Yanbo time to say anything, Lin Anyu quickly sat up straight and then swept his back.
The tremendous force caused the structure of the wooden chair to fall apart on Chu Yinbo's body.
Xu Jinshu was just about to look up from the mobile phone video of the negotiation when he heard the noise behind him.
Lin Anyu quickly turned over and swept sideways, kicking Chu Yanbo to the ground.
Almost at the same time, the pistol on Chu Yanbo's waist also appeared in Lin Anyu's hand.
The process takes no more than a minute.
She stepped on Chu Yinbo's head with her right foot, crushing him forcefully under her feet, while her right hand casually placed the snatched pistol against the back of Xu Jinshu's head.
She casually unfastened the safety on the gun.
She warned lazily, "Don't move."
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.
Why so fast?
The situation was turned around in just a few breaths?
What a powerful skill this person must have.
Among those who were shocked on the spot were the policemen who were discussing how to rescue Lin Anyu outside and were also shocked by the video playing.
Be good.
One against two per minute.
Is it that fierce?
-
Jiang Aichen also reacted quickly. After making sure that Lin Anyu had subdued the man, he quickly led his men to the second floor and rescued the hostage and Lin Anyu.
Finally, Xu Jinshu, who was handcuffed by two policemen, turned his head and looked at Lin Anyu: "Who are you?"
Lin Anyu said word by word: "Lin Anyu."
After getting this answer, Xu Jinshu laughed contemptuously: "Officer Lin, I hope that next time when you execute me, you can lie to me and say that you are Song Luo."
Lin Anyu did not respond, and Xu Jinshu was then led away.
Lin Anyu handed the gun to Jiang Aichen: "Captain Jiang, please hand this gun over to the headquarters. This should be the gun that killed Captain Ye."
When Ye Pulan was mentioned, everyone fell silent.
Gu Beizhi was just about to say something to comfort him when Xu Jinshu, who was not far away, seized the opportunity, pushed away the police who were restraining him, and quickly ran towards the pile of rescued hostages.
Lin Anyu had no time to think.
She instinctively picked up the pistol that Jiang Aichen had put in his hand and fired it in the direction of Gu Beizhi with a "bang".
The bullet head traveled quickly in the air for a while, and then rushed into Xu Jinshu's body at an extremely fast speed.
For a moment, blood splattered everywhere.
Accompanied by the screams of the crowd.
Xu Jinshu's upright body fell down.
The gun he used to kill a policeman three years ago eventually killed himself.
