The operating room door remained closed.
The three people outside the operating room were like clay sculptures, so quiet that they could hear their own heartbeats.
Zhou Ruolan would occasionally wipe away the tears and snot that involuntarily flowed from her nose with a handkerchief.
Her once pretty face was now covered in blood.
Xiao Weiguo also felt a mix of emotions.
The old Party Secretary Xiao Wenjin personally handed his grandson over to him, hoping that he could make something of himself by following him.
Xiao Weiguo himself was very optimistic about Xiao Baojun. He was a genius in sales and believed that he would achieve great things in a few years.
After all, once domestic production exceeds demand in the next century, such talent will become the most scarce resource.
I never expected this to happen. If something were to happen to me, how could I face that family?
"Brother, what happened today is my fault for not being vigilant enough."
Standing beside him, Jiao Bai said something with self-reproach.
Protecting Xiao Weiguo was his responsibility. Xiao Weiguo was injured and Xiao Baojun was stabbed right before his eyes, which made him feel guilty and extremely angry at the same time.
Since his debut, Jiao Bai has never met his match. Even those two American bodyguards couldn't last a single round against him.
This made Jiao Bai increasingly confident. In his view, the world was just like this, and there probably weren't many people who could exchange a few blows with him.
However, today, he encountered his first challenge.
Zheng Qiang injured two people right under his nose, yet he didn't stop him and even let him leave calmly afterwards.
This left Jiao Bai, who was always confident, extremely frustrated. His father had often told him that there were many capable people in the world, and that he should never underestimate anyone.
But he never expected that a mere tomb raider would possess such skill.
During the fight, Xiao Bai discovered that the other person's skills were by no means much worse than his own, and in fact, his movement techniques were even better. However, he could overpower the other person in terms of strength.
If Xiao Weiguo hadn't stopped him, he would have definitely chased after Zheng Qiang and fought him to the death.
However, at that time, Xiao Weiguo was injured and Xiao Baojun's life was uncertain, so they both needed to go to the hospital immediately.
Jiao Bai had no choice but to give up the idea of chasing after them.
But what Jiao Bai didn't know was that Zheng Qiang was also having a hard time right now.
As he jumped away from the scene, amidst a hail of gunfire, despite his best efforts to dodge, he was still hit in the back by a bullet.
He had planned the escape route in advance, but he did not expect that there would not only be a large number of security guards at the entrance of Panlong Group, but also so many plainclothes officers with guns lying in ambush.
If things had been calm on the surface, with few security guards, Zheng Qiang would not have acted so recklessly. Given his cautious nature, he would have surely noticed something unusual.
The problem is that the other party is creating a very tense situation, sending out a large number of security guards to patrol the area.
This put his mind at ease. With his skills, no matter how many security guards there were, as long as they didn't have firearms, they wouldn't be able to stop him.
But to his surprise, Liu Changhe, the county public security bureau chief, was so concerned about Xiao Weiguo's case.
With so many plainclothes officers secretly deployed nearby, Zheng Qiang knew he was in danger the moment the first gunshot rang out.
No matter how fast you move, you can't outrun a bullet. He understood this principle.
No matter how skilled he is, anyone with a gun could take his life.
Ignoring the pain in his back, Zheng Qiang flipped over the wall.
Behind him was a large residential area with a complex terrain, where bungalows and multi-story buildings were interspersed. If he escaped into the area, it would be difficult for the police to find him again.
But this time he was wrong again.
As gunshots rang out, a large number of police officers emerged from the vicinity.
He did not escape Liu Changhe's judgment; the Panlong Group and its residential buildings had long been a key area for his police deployment.
Sirens wailed everywhere, and people moved about in the streets and alleys.
Zheng Qiang knew he was doomed.
Waves of pain surged from the wound on his back. He couldn't see where he was injured; he only felt a burning pain all over his back.
His steps grew heavier and heavier, his strength draining away with his blood.
He knew he probably wouldn't have the strength to escape this area.
"squeak!"
A jeep with police lights on stopped at the entrance of Panlong Group.
As soon as the car door opened, Liu Changhe jumped out of the car.
"Director Liu!"
Hu Haidong, dressed in plain clothes, came running over, panting.
He holstered his gun and snapped to attention.
"Reporting to Director Liu."
He maintained some of his manners in front of Liu Changhe.
"explain."
Liu Changhe smoothed his hair and put the peaked cap on his head.
"Preliminary investigations have confirmed that the suspect is Zheng Qiang himself. He disguised himself as a blind beggar and took the opportunity to approach Chairman Xiao Weiguo, stabbing Chairman Xiao and one of his employees. The injured are now in the hospital. Zheng Qiang was shot while fleeing and escaped into the residential area to the north."
Hu Haidong briefly reported what had just happened to Liu Changhe. Then he stopped and waited quietly for the director's instructions.
Liu Changhe frowned.
He had anticipated Xiao Weiguo's retaliation, so he had deployed a large force here, but he still managed to slip through the defenses. The fact that he could injure someone despite being surrounded and then escape unscathed shows just how terrifying this person is.
"How badly are they injured? Is their life in danger?"
