"Let that woman come out. All she has to do is hand over the jade."
The man in the lead casually pushed open the car door, sat on the hood, and said, "The person is here. We want not only the jade, but also the woman. Who told her to be so beautiful?"
Zhu Baojun told the driver to call the police, saying that if they could delay for more than ten minutes, the local law enforcement team would arrive to provide assistance.
Tianru's ears twitched, and she whispered, "Mom, they have guns on them. I heard them opening the magazines."
Yan Xiaonan frowned, opened the magazine, wondering if they were going to die. His mind raced: "Zhu Baojun, there are three people in the car in front and four people in the car behind. You and the bodyguard go to the right, use the crossbows as weapons, and use the car doors for protection."
Zhu Baojun also heard Tianru's words, but he didn't understand how Tianru knew what the other party was doing, but now was not the time to ask.
The front and rear doors on the right side of the car were opened, and the bodyguard and Zhu Baojun got out of the car with crossbows. One of them faced the front car and the other faced the rear car. They rolled down the car windows to a gap that could extend the bows and arrows, and hid behind the car doors, ready for battle.
The chattering leader became serious when he saw the crossbows in their hands. They had managed to rob jade and money several times a year on this road, and always managed to escape before the law enforcement team arrived.
They had timed it perfectly; they only needed ten minutes to complete the robbery and escape. Originally, one car would have sufficed, but they saw three strong men in the car, so they brought another one.
To their surprise, the car contained weapons, which made things difficult. They only intended to rob, not kill, especially foreigners, as it would cause them a lot of trouble.
But going back like this would be too embarrassing. Why not take a chance? The leader slowly hid behind the car door, preparing to discuss whether to act together.
The driver had already called the police and received a definite reply. He also took out a crossbow from under the seat and was preparing to get out of the car. Yan Xiaonan quickly told the driver and Ye Wen to get out of the car from the left side at the same time, so that both of them could hide behind the car door.
Just as the leader was about to say something, he saw the left door open and an arrow sticking out of the window. A sense of crisis suddenly descended, and he even considered retreating.
Yu Shu leaned against Yan Xiaonan and said, "Mom, I can control the Judge's Pen at this distance."
Yan Xiaonan nodded and told Yu Shu to stand in front of Ye Wen. In case of any problems, the car door would block the way, and the dagger on Ye Wen's body would fly out from behind.
As soon as the judge's pen was thrown, it flew directly towards the windshield of the car behind. With a crash, the glass shattered into pieces upon impact with the judge's pen.
The group was waiting intently for the command to act over the walkie-talkie when disaster struck: the windshield suddenly shattered, giving them a fright.
But when they looked up, they were so frightened that they fell backward. A bright green pen was floating in the air, its black tip pointing directly at them.
Strangely, no matter which angle you looked at it from, the pen tip was pointed at their throats, as if the slightest movement would cause the pen to fly over and stab them to death.
"Don't come any closer! We're leaving right now, right now!"
The driver was the first to react, turning the key and starting the engine, while the judge's pen seemed to understand him and even stepped back.
"Witchcraft!" several people exclaimed at the same time.
The driver immediately stepped on the gas, and the car made a U-turn and drove off in a wobbly manner. At such a high speed, Yan Xiaonan was worried that it might hit someone.
The car in front couldn't see what was happening in the car behind, but the word "witchcraft" coming from the walkie-talkie made the men tremble. They were afraid of nothing but witchcraft, which was something more terrifying than death.
"Let's go, let's go," the leader urged.
The driver gritted his teeth and used all his strength to turn the key, but the more anxious he was, the more problems arose. He couldn't start the engine several times. Finally, he put his hands together, prayed a few times, and then the engine started.
Seeing that the car in front had also left, Yu Shu moved her mind, and the Judge's Pen returned to Yu Shu's waist with a whoosh and went into the pen case, as if nothing had happened.
The driver and bodyguard were facing forward and couldn't see what was happening behind them, but Zhu Baojun was facing back. At first, he only noticed that the windshield of the car was broken and found it funny.
But when a green stalk appeared in front of the car, hovering motionless in the air, and when he saw the robber's terrified expression, his heart began to pound.
He stared intently at the judge's pen until it moved back slightly, at which point he closed his eyes in fright, thinking it was about to come at him.
He heard the sound of a car leaving, and he dared not open his eyes. Even the robbers had escaped; how could they possibly survive?
It wasn't until Tianru patted him on the shoulder and said, "The bad guys have run away, you can open your eyes now."
Zhu Baojun opened one eye and looked ahead, but there was nothing there. There were no robbers or pens. He quickly opened both eyes and even stood up, but there was still nothing in front of him.
Yan Xiaonan and the others exchanged glances and smiled, but they wouldn't admit to seeing anything.
Sure enough, Zhu Baojun pointed ahead and asked Yan Xiaonan, "Mr. Yan, did you see something?"
Yan Xiaonan climbed out of the car, looked in the direction Zhu Baojun was pointing, and then said inexplicably, "What's that? Could it be the law enforcement team?"
"Oh right, has the law enforcement team arrived yet?" Zhu Baojun's thoughts turned to the law enforcement team again. The driver and bodyguard saw the robbers leave quickly and assumed that the law enforcement team had arrived, so they quickly hid their crossbows.
They noticed that Zhu Baojun hadn't put away his crossbow properly, and hurriedly reminded him that crossbows were also regulated, but it was much better than carrying a gun.
Zhu Baojun also came to his senses, quickly hid the crossbow, then got into the car, closed the door, and waited for the law enforcement team to arrive.
Sure enough, a minute later, several cars drove up, and the law enforcement team in camouflage uniforms got out and walked over. Zhu Baojun and the driver quickly got out of the car and explained what had just happened.
The law enforcement team carefully examined the ground and indeed found traces of a car making a sharp turn and leaving. They then looked closely at the car in front of them and thought to themselves, "No wonder the robbers escaped. There's no way a robber could handle a car like this."
After expressing his gratitude, Zhu Baojun took out five hundred US dollars from his pocket and stuffed it into the team leader's hand, saying, "This is a reward for your hard work."
The enforcement team leader smiled and stuffed the money into his pocket before turning and leaving. This mission hadn't been in vain; it seemed they would have to pay more attention to people from China in the future.
