Chapter 9 Chapter 9 It can’t be such a coincidence, right? You too? …
"You can freely enter and exit Sevan."
Pei Shuyu listened to Lu Hean's words, pondered for a moment and then said, "How about this, tomorrow at 3 pm, you come to Saifan, and I will take you to complete the procedures for binding permissions."
Lu Hean chuckled on the other end of the phone, his tone casual but firm: "Okay, then I'll trouble Captain Pei." After that, he hung up the phone conveniently. The "beep" busy tone seemed to tap Pei Shuyu's heart gently.
At three o'clock in the afternoon of the second day, Lu He'an, wearing a neatly ironed colonel's uniform, stood straight and walked at a leisurely pace and arrived in Sevan on time.
Pei Shuyu's face was calm as he waited quietly at the door. When he saw him coming, he simply said, "Follow me."
The two walked side by side towards the office where the authority was handled. The atmosphere was so oppressive that it made people breathless. Those who usually dared to joke with Pei Shuyu now nodded in response to them.
When they were almost at the office, Lu Hean suddenly spoke with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Captain Pei, you are really enthusiastic. You have to take care of this matter."
I didn't expect Lu He'an was still thinking about yesterday's phone call, even though it was already that time.
Pei Shuyu paused and gave him a cold look. "This is my job. Colonel Lu, there's no need to be so sarcastic. Someone is missing in Saifan, and as the captain, I naturally have to take full responsibility. Unlike some people who only care about their own little piece of the pie."
Pei Shuyu regretted his words the moment they left his mouth. He had been too impulsive. Anyone with a reasonable understanding could tell who these "some people" and "one acre and three points of land" were referring to.
Lu Hean smiled slightly, his expression relaxed: "After all, I'm not as responsible as Captain Pei. However, sometimes I work too hard and I might end up exhausting myself."
Pei Shuyu snorted coldly and quickened his pace into the office: "Colonel Lu, you should just focus on yourself. I know what's going on with me."
In the office, while handling the procedures, both of them were silent, and only the rustling sound of the pen tip scratching across the paper seemed to be writing about the tense atmosphere between them.
The formalities had just been completed and the staff was about to take Lu Hean to enter his fingerprint information.
Pei Shuyu's phone rang rapidly. After he finished the call, his face changed slightly. He looked at Lu Hean and said, "I have some things to take care of. You continue here."
Pei Shuyu had just turned around when someone grabbed his wrist. Lu Hean, sitting in a chair, said calmly, "What's the matter?" Pei Shuyu tried to pull his wrist out silently, but Lu Hean was using a lot of force and couldn't pull it out just like before. He sighed, "It's just a simple little thing."
After hearing what Pei Shuyu said, Lu Hean let go of his hand.
He lowered his eyes to watch Pei Shuyu hurried away, his fingertips unconsciously rubbing the edge of his phone. Only when the footsteps faded into the corridor did he casually place his phone upside down on the table and offer a smile to the staff member: "Can you show me that document again?"
When the staff came out of the inner room with the things and prepared to take Lu He'an to enter the fingerprints, they found that Lu He'an, who was there just now, had disappeared.
"Huh? Where are the people?"
"Where are they?" Pei Shuyu had already arrived at the door of the bar.
I just received a call saying that someone is trying to transfer those Omegas, and it is very likely that their actions have been exposed.
He quickly contacted Dashan and Xiao Liu to confirm the situation. Dashan said anxiously on the other end of the phone, "The bar can't take all the Omegas at once, so they're moving them in batches. Qingyang has already gone after the first batch, and the two of us will stay behind to intercept the second batch."
Pei Shuyu frowned and whispered, "Be careful." After hanging up, he looked around with vigilance in his eyes. After confirming that the surroundings were safe, he continued to dial the phone.
However, before Pei Shuyu could finish reporting the situation to his superiors, Fu Zhouxing called him, his voice full of anxiety: "Pei Shuyu, Qingyang is in trouble! He followed those people to an abandoned warehouse and now we can't contact him!"
Pei Shuyu's heart sank suddenly. He could not care about anything else and frowned, "Where is the warehouse location?"
…
When Pei Shuyu arrived, an eerie silence surrounded the warehouse. Only a few worn-out street lamps emitted faint light, casting mottled shadows on the ground.
He marked the door, then slowed down and walked cautiously inside. Various materials were piled on the floor, and if you were not careful, you might step on them and make a noise.
Pei Shuyu carefully walked along the wall and went deeper inside. After walking for a distance, he could vaguely hear some conversations.
"Hey! Big brother, what do you say we should do with this kid?"
The sound of sharpening a knife could be heard. "When we take those omegas away, give him a blow and make him shut up forever."
Pei Shuyu's heart trembled, and he already had a plan in mind. Judging from the sound, there were only two people on the other side. He should be able to deal with them. If not, he could delay the situation for a while until Fu Zhouxing could call for reinforcements.
He looked at the two men's movements, thinking about which one to deal with first.
At that moment, the communicator lit up. The sender—Fu Zhouxing. Pei Shuyu took a deep breath, quickly adjusting his breathing rhythm. He took the initiative to step out, his eyes sharp as an eagle, locking onto the two men.
While the two were still discussing how to leave, he suddenly jumped out like a black lightning, rushed towards the slightly fatter kidnapper on the left, raised his hand and threw a fierce hook punch, hitting the other person's cheek.
The man was caught off guard by the attack. He let out a muffled groan and flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, landing heavily on a pile of debris.
The other man was stunned at first, but then reacted, roaring and pulling out a dagger from his waist, rushing towards Pei Shuyu. Pei Shuyu dodged the attack easily, then kicked the kidnapper's wrist with a precise kick.
The dagger fell to the ground with a clang, making a crisp sound in the silent warehouse. Pei Shuyu took advantage of the victory and chased the kidnapper, choking him and squeezing him hard, making his face flush red and he struggled continuously.
"Oh, what a rare visitor!" A figure slowly walked out from behind Xiao Qingyang. Pei Shuyu glanced at them out of the corner of his eye, cursing inwardly. There were actually three of them!
The man had a ferocious mask on his face. He picked up a dagger and put it against Xiao Qingyang's neck, "Do you want me to continue?" The dagger then moved closer, cut through the skin, and a trace of blood oozed out.
Pei Shuyu was extremely anxious when he saw this and shouted, "Stop! We can talk about whatever you want!"
However, just when Pei Shuyu was still trying to delay time and pretend to negotiate, the man who had just been knocked down stood up, took advantage of Pei Shuyu's distraction, attacked him from behind, and hit Pei Shuyu on the head with a stick.
Pei Shuyu groaned in pain and loosened his grip slightly, allowing the person who was restrained to break free.
The two men instantly surrounded Pei Shuyu. Pei Shuyu half-knelt on the ground, panting slightly, his eyes glancing coldly at the three people in front of him. He estimated the time in his mind. Fu Zhouxing should be here soon. He just needed to hold on a little longer.
Pei Shuyu faced three men on his own. Though agile, he was outnumbered and armed, making his bare hands no match for the daggers. Gradually, his strength wore off, and he sustained several wounds. Blood oozed from his wounds, staining his clothes red.
At this time, the man who held Xiao Qingyang hostage seemed to have lost his patience. He used a little more force on the knife in his hand, and blood appeared directly on Xiao Qingyang's neck.
Pei Shuyu was horrified and dared not move. Seeing this, the group rushed forward, punching and kicking Pei Shuyu. Pei Shuyu was powerless to resist and could only try his best to protect his vital parts. Soon, he was beaten to the ground, unable to move.
Still not satisfied, the men tied him up again. One of them pulled out a dagger and said viciously, "Let's just kill him and save ourselves the trouble!" He was about to strike, but another man stopped him, saying, "Letting him die right away would be too easy for him. Anyway, our contact hasn't arrived yet, so let's keep him alive and torture him slowly!"
Pei Shuyu was lying on the ground, in great pain all over. Just when he thought he could defeat these people to the death, a gunshot rang out, and the person closest to him was suddenly hit in the middle of the eyebrows and fell straight down.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Hean and a group of people rushed in like a divine army descending from the sky.
Lu Hean was dressed in a straight combat uniform, his eyes were as cold as ice, and he held the gun tightly in his hand. His aura could freeze people and make them feel scared.
The team behind him were like wolves, well-trained. As soon as they charged in, they engaged the thugs. Their attacks were fierce and fast, and those guys were no match for them.
They choked, then threw over the shoulder, their movements swift and smooth. In just a few blows, the men were left crying and screaming, collapsing on the ground like a puddle of mud.
"Torture these people and take them back for my personal interrogation." Lu Hean glanced at them with cold eyes, then quickly walked to Pei Shuyu's side. Seeing him covered in wounds and in a miserable state, his face was ashen and there was an unremovable murderous look between his brows.
He quickly squatted down and untied Pei Shuyu's ropes. A mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Captain Pei, is this just the little thing you said? It's amazing! With your skills, you still want to solve the problem alone?"
Pei Shuyu struggled to stand up and looked at Lu Hean, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, including gratitude and unwillingness.
At this time, Fu Zhouxing's voice came from the intercom: "Pei Shuyu! Something is wrong! There is a bomb here! Get out of here quickly! Take them and Xiao Qingyang and leave quickly!"
Pei Shuyu understood immediately. Those people had never intended to let these omegas survive from the beginning! They used these omegas as bait to maximize their value.
Perhaps originally, they just wanted to take Xiao Qingyang away. But now that Pei Shuyu and Lu Hean were here, the people behind the scenes must be smiling.
He ignored the pain in his body and forced himself to stand up. Lu Hean helped him up and then directed everyone to lead the group of Omegas and Xiao Qingyang out.
When they reached the door, there was a sudden, deafening explosion—a bomb buried inside the warehouse had exploded. Flames shot up into the sky, and with the intermittent explosions, broken stone and glass flew everywhere, some of the sharp pieces even scratching Pei Shuyu's cheek.
Lu Hean reacted quickly and hugged Pei Shuyu tightly in his arms. Pei Shuyu felt that his feet were off the ground, and Lu Hean was holding him and running out. The huge impact made Pei Shuyu's eyes go black and he lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, Pei Shuyu was already lying on the hospital bed. The white sheets and the smell of disinfectant made everything seem so quiet.
It was as if the explosion was just a dream he had.
He tilted his head slightly and saw Fu Zhouxing sitting on the chair next to him, reading a book with great interest. He tried to push himself up, but his head felt like it was being pricked by needles, and waves of pain came over him.
He reached out and touched it, feeling layers of gauze. Having just woken up, he couldn't control his strength and didn't use enough force. He lay back down with a hiss, making some noises. Fu Zhouxing finally noticed that his patient had woken up and put down the book in his hand. "Finally awake, how do you feel now?"
Pei Shuyu was so tired that he didn't answer for a moment.
Fu Zhouxing came over and waved his palm in front of his eyes. "The doctor said you had a head injury. It can't be such a coincidence? You also lost your memory?"
"Also? Who else?" Pei Shuyu spoke weakly.
Seeing that he was alright, Fu Zhouxing sat back down and said calmly, "Lu He's safe."
