The index finger on the trigger began to retract inward little by little and extremely slowly. As time went on, the trigger was pressed lower and lower.
At this critical moment, Wang Xiaolan's right hand moved slightly, and a flash of light shot out from her hand. It was a silver needle as thin as a hair, which drew a graceful arc in the air and pierced Yamaguchi Kazu-kun's wrist with lightning speed.
Yamaguchi Kazukun had no time to react. He only felt a sharp pain in his wrist, followed by a crisp "bang" sound. The gun in his hand fell out of his hand and fell heavily on the hard deck with a dull thud.
When he used his other hand to hold the injured hand, Xiaojun kicked onto the deck. While he was not able to react, someone in the crowd quickly ran over and carried Xiaojun back.
Yamaguchi Kazukun, seeing Xiaojun being rescued, his only lifeline was gone, he began to despair. When he turned around, he saw a ship heading towards him in the distance.
An idea struck him. Wasn't this the ship coming to pick him up? A look of surprise flashed across his face, and he suddenly moved, leaping at astonishing speed like an arrow from a bow! The moment he leaped over the side of the ship and headed straight for the sea, it was as if time froze, and everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
This sudden action left everyone present dumbfounded, and they didn't even have time to react.
Then, a burst of terrified screams broke out from the crowd: "Oh my God! He jumped into the sea!"
Just as everyone was filled with resentment and indignation at the successful escape of this vicious criminal, suddenly, a sharp and piercing "swish" sound pierced the sky! The sound was like a sharp arrow, whistling straight over everyone's heads.
Before people could react to what was happening, they saw a rope as thick as a bowl falling from the sky like a nimble giant python at lightning speed!
In the blink of an eye, just when Yamaguchi Kazu-kun was about to fall into the turbulent sea, the rope accurately and precisely fell on his body as if assisted by God, and wrapped around him tightly, like an indestructible shackle that bound him firmly!
He dragged Yamaguchi Kazuki, whose half body was already submerged in the sea, back and then pulled him onto the boat little by little.
When everyone saw Yamaguchi Kazu-kun being held captive like a lost dog, a deafening roar of cheers erupted from the crowd! The sound rose and fell, one wave higher than the other, as if it were about to break through the clouds and reach the sky.
"Haha, this hateful dog spy is finally caught! Let's see how arrogant he can still be!" someone shouted excitedly.
"That's right. He murdered our compatriots. Blood debt must be repaid with blood. He will never escape the people's judgment!"
Yamaguchi Ichi-kun, lying on the broad deck, was like a lifeless, slaughtered pig, with his limbs spread out limply, motionless. However, from his slightly trembling body and the occasional painful groans, it could be judged that he was not completely unconscious.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd. An elderly man with gray hair and a slightly hunched figure struggled to squeeze through the layers of people and rushed into the circle like an enraged lion.
The old man's face was filled with rage, his eyes wide open, as if about to spit fire. Without saying a word, he raised his cloth-shoeed foot and kicked Yamaguchi Kazu-kun fiercely.
With a few muffled "bang bang bang" sounds, Yamaguchi Kazu-kun was hit by several kicks in a row, howling in pain like a pig being slaughtered. But the old man showed no sign of stopping, continuing to kick and cursing: "You beast, worse than pigs and dogs! How dare you use my little grandson to threaten us? Do you have any humanity left? Even if it costs me my life today, I will let you know the consequences of your evil deeds!"
After saying that, the old man launched a flurry of punches and kicks at Yamaguchi Kazuki.
At this time, Yamaguchi Kazuki was beaten badly, his body was covered with bruises, and he screamed in pain. The sound resounded throughout the space and echoed in the sea.
Wang Xiaolan watched this scene quietly. Although she was filled with hatred towards the enemy, her reason told her that it was not the time to let him die.
She frowned slightly, and when the old man paused, she softly advised, "Grandpa, calm down. I think he's felt the pain after this beating. Besides, this man can't just die so easily right now. We have to hand him over to the public security department! After all, we might be able to get more valuable information from him, so that we can completely eradicate the forces behind him and prevent future troubles!"
The angry old man finally stopped talking after hearing what Wang Xiaolan said.
His cloudy but still shrewd eyes stared at Wang Xiaolan, his lips trembling slightly. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Girl, I really have to thank you very much! If you hadn't stood up for us, I'm afraid we would have been taken hostage by those heartless guys and shipped to that damn Sakura Country! I feel scared just thinking about it..."
As he spoke, the old man patted his chest lightly, as if he was still frightened.
Everyone echoed, "Yes! You are our savior. I don't know how to thank you enough."
Wang Xiaolan smiled and gently waved her hand, saying in a gentle tone, "Saving you is my unshirkable responsibility! As for why those people wanted to arrest you, there must be a reason. Either you possess extraordinary abilities, or your family members have jobs or abilities that can play a vital and indispensable role in the development of our great motherland."
"If anything were to happen to you, it would be an immeasurable loss to our country! Therefore, protecting the safety of each and every one of you is not only personal, but also closely linked to the interests of the entire country!"
After hearing her words, everyone's expression grew extremely heavy. For a moment, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence. No one spoke, and even the sound of breathing was clearly audible.
The reason for this situation is that everyone present knows that the work they are currently doing is extremely confidential and must not be revealed to the outside world easily.
Not only that, even the careers their families were involved in were also highly confidential and could not be revealed to outsiders. This requirement of strict secrecy was like an insurmountable wall between them and the outside world, forcing them to remain silent at all times and bury all information deep in their hearts.
Wang Xiaolan said, "Everyone has worked hard these past few days. Go back to your cabin and rest! It won't be long before the public security personnel and the People's Liberation Army will take you home."
