Chapter 23 Rat Man
"Soldier, aren't you ready yet? The pagan is getting more and more agitated, causing blood to seep from the hostage's neck. The situation is quite critical."
"Captain, that man was very professional. He hid his body very well. I couldn't aim and had no chance to shoot or snipe."
"Chen Yan, have you found out the identity of that pagan believer? Contact his family as soon as possible and have them come to the scene to persuade him."
"Captain, the other party is an orphan."
“…”
Listening to the reports of the two team members, the captain of the security team looked worried.
He really wanted to rush forward to rescue the hostage-taking woman, but he saw no chance to do so.
The pagan huddled in a corner, hiding his body behind the hostage, with only a knife on the hostage's neck exposed, without revealing any flaws.
"Captain, how about we try using hypnotic gas?"
One of the team members suggested quietly.
The security team leader shook his head: "It's useless. The hypnotic gas is too obvious. It will easily anger the criminals before it takes effect, causing them to act drastically."
Just when everyone felt helpless.
suddenly!
A sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard!
"Buzz!"
The next moment, a stone as big as an egg flew past the security captain's eyes at a speed that was barely visible to the naked eye, and accurately hit the hand of the pagan inside.
"ah--!"
The pagans screamed in pain.
The stone hit his hand holding the knife.
Moreover, the angle of the impact was extremely tricky, and the powerful impact force caused the hand holding the knife to turn outward, causing the kitchen knife to move away from the hostage's neck and quickly fall to the ground.
At the same time, the hostage-taking teacher Strawberry finally escaped. Her strong desire to survive made her desperately run towards the security guard.
The security guards reacted quickly. One of them stepped forward to assist Teacher Strawberry, while the rest rushed over to control the pagans.
From beginning to end, the security guards had no idea what had happened. They only knew that the pagan suddenly covered his hands and screamed, and then the hostage escaped from danger on his own.
Only Shen Qinghan, who witnessed everything with her own eyes, opened her mouth in shock, her face full of shock.
"Xiaochen, you..."
"Let's go. Let's talk again when we get back."
Lin Zichen had no intention of staying long. Seeing that Teacher Strawberry was rescued, he sat back on his bicycle to take Shen Qinghan away.
However, before he could even start riding his bike, the captain of the security team ran over and blocked his bike, panting slightly and saying:
"Classmate, wait a minute, don't leave so quickly. Was it you who threw the stone just now?"
As he spoke, the captain of the security team placed a stone in his hand in front of Lin Zichen.
The pagan's hand was injured, and there was a bloody stone not far from his feet. Combined with the direction from which the stone was thrown, the captain of the security team guessed that the stone was thrown by Lin Zichen.
Although this is unbelievable, there is really no more reasonable explanation than this at the moment.
"I didn't throw it."
Lin Zichen didn't want to be bothered by the subsequent matters, so he said this lightly.
Then, the front of the car tilted and rode away from the security team captain.
The security team leader was stunned for a moment, then after realizing what was happening, he looked at his back and shouted:
"classmate!"
"Student, please stop!"
"Classmate, what you did was a good thing. Why shouldn't you acknowledge it?!"
No matter how loudly the security team captain shouted, Lin Zichen showed no intention of stopping, and his figure quickly disappeared around the corner ahead.
"That's strange. Why are you unwilling to admit the good things you did?"
The captain of the security team was puzzled by this.
However, he didn't think too much about it and planned to come back here tomorrow to check the surveillance footage to confirm whether it was Lin Zichen who did it and how he did it.
At this moment, Lin Zichen returned with Shen Qinghan. He looked at him and asked, "I suddenly remembered something. Is there a reward for bravery?"
"Uh, yes."
"Yes, I threw it. There are my fingerprints on the stone. You can take me back for comparison."
The captain of the security team: "..."
The change of expression happened so quickly that even the captain of the security team was speechless for a moment.
Lin Zichen didn't want this to happen, but in order to open the Ghost Squid Atlas as soon as possible, he had to think of all kinds of ways to save money and bend over backwards for a few days.
The security team leader said, "How about this? You guys come to the security office later to take a simple statement and compare fingerprints. Once you're sure there's nothing wrong, I'll apply for a bravery bonus for you."
"Okay, no problem."
Lin Zichen agreed readily.
Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghan in the back seat immediately took out his cell phone and called home, saying that he would be back later.
The captain of the security team returned to the park to deal with the aftermath and bring the subdued pagan back to the security station.
"By the way, Xiaochen, I don't know how Teacher Strawberry is doing now. Let's go check on her."
As soon as Shen Qinghan finished the call, he made a suggestion to Lin Zichen in front of him.
Lin Zichen: "Okay."
After reaching a consensus, the two parked their bicycles aside and walked towards the security car in the park together.
As soon as Teacher Strawberry was rescued, she was immediately taken into a security car to treat the wound on her neck. She is probably resting in the car now.
Just as the two were about to reach the security car.
Not far to the side, the pagan who was handcuffed suddenly made a painful "ho ho" sound from his mouth for some reason.
Immediately afterwards, his face began to crack, leaving shocking streaks of blood.
These bloodstains grew longer and longer, and opened wider and wider, until they formed eyes, evenly distributed on both sides of the face.
Including the original eyes, there are exactly eight, no more, no less.
The security guard who was in charge of escorting the pagans noticed something was wrong and immediately drew his gun and loaded it. At the same time, he nervously shouted to the security team leader:
"Captain, something's happened! This pagan is showing signs of a mutation and is transforming into a giant rat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the pagan believer who showed symptoms of alienation suddenly became extremely strong. He tore off the handcuffs directly, then turned around and pounced on the security guard to bite him.
Fortunately, the security guard was on guard and reacted quickly, moving to the side in time to avoid the attack.
A giant alien rat?!
Lin Zichen first heard these five words, and then saw the eight eyes on the pagan's face. Without thinking, he picked up Shen Qinghan beside him, turned around and ran out of the park.
He didn't know what exactly happened, but it would definitely be the right thing to do if he could get away from the scene as soon as possible.
Shen Qinghan was still a little confused, but she had been carried around like this by Lin Zichen many times when she was a child, so she hugged Lin Zichen's neck obediently, put her face against him, and tried to make it easier for him to hug her.
"Shoot, shoot!"
As soon as Lin Zichen ran away, the security team captain shouted anxiously to several security guards.
Then, a deafening burst of gunfire suddenly rang out, which was particularly harsh in the silent night.
"Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
“…”
At this time, Lin Zichen had already run out of the park with Shen Qinghan in his arms, and they both got on their bicycles. They pedaled and rushed away, trying to get away from the dangerous place behind them.
However, I don’t know if I pedaled too hard or what, but after riding less than 20 meters, the bicycle chain suddenly broke with a "snap".
The chain was directly broken, not dropped, and there was no way to save it.
"Fuck!" Lin Zichen swore seldom.
