Chapter 28 Hostage Exchange (Part 2)
No one expected the sudden change, and Maureen was even more dumbfounded. She didn't react at all when the woman rushed over. Only when someone put a knife to her neck did she shudder all over, and her face turned pale in an instant, bloodless.
The crowd was in chaos and everyone scattered in all directions. Zhou Xun immediately embraced Xia Beibei and took two steps back, then grabbed her wrist and protected her behind him.
The woman who kidnapped Maureen was about 28 or 29 years old. She wore a green dress and had a messy ponytail. She looked very haggard and her eyes were bloodshot. Her hand holding the knife was shaking with excitement. Maureen was so scared that she dared not move.
"You... who are you? I have no grudge against you. Please don't kill me. If you want money, I can give it to you. You can have as much as you want."
Maureen was horrified and tried to negotiate with her, but the woman with the knife ignored her. She looked around and didn't find the target. She shouted:
"Lu Jiaming! Let Lu Jiaming come out to see me, or I will kill her!"
Lu Jiaming? The eldest son of the Lu family?
The woman's target was the eldest son of the Lu family. The old man of the Lu family came out with a group of people, but Lu Jiaming was not among them. The old man said that his son was not there and had left just now.
Everyone knew he was lying, because Lu Jiaming was here just now, and tonight was his engagement party, so how could he leave? It was obvious that the Lu family didn't want him to take risks.
Obviously, the woman also saw through the old man's lies. In anger, she scratched Maureen's neck with the tip of the knife. Maureen screamed in fear, but her mind was not confused.
"You...you caught the wrong person. He won't let his own son die for me. You should catch her!"
Mo Lin pointed at Xia Beibei who was protected by Zhou Xun and said in a sharp voice: "She is a police officer. It is more useful for you to hold a police officer hostage than to hold me hostage. If you hold her hostage, they will definitely bring Lu Jiaming here."
"Maureen! Shut the fuck up!"
Zhou Xun had a cold face and was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up. Xia Beibei came out from behind him and ignored Mo Lin. Instead, she looked at the woman who held her hostage and deliberately softened her voice and said:
"She's right. I'm a police officer, so I can help you. Aren't you looking for Lu Jiaming? OK, we can talk about the terms."
The woman looked at her warily. Xia Beibei looked into her eyes and said, "You don't want to kill anyone, right? There should be someone waiting for you at home. Don't be impulsive and don't do anything that you will regret. Think about your family and your children."
When the woman heard the word "child", her expression changed obviously. Her eyes were red and her voice was stuttering, but she could not hide her hatred.
"I don't want to kill anyone. I don't want to kill him. I...if I hadn't been forced into a desperate situation by that bastard Lu Jiaming, I wouldn't be so miserable. It's all because of him. He ruined me. He caused my family to be torn apart. That beast, he deserves to die!"
Xia Beibei noticed her panic for a moment and paused for a moment before saying:
"If he really caused your family to be destroyed, then he really deserves to die. If you want to kill him, I will have someone call him out and you can go after him directly."
At this point, Xia Beibei took off her suit and handed it to Zhou Xun, then bent over and pulled up her skirt. A gun was tied to the inside of her thigh. Everyone had just come back to their senses from her hot body, and suddenly saw the gun in her hand, and they gasped.
Sure enough, beauties all have thorns!
Xia Beibei pointed the gun at the woman's head and reminded Maureen not to move if she didn't want to die. Then she said to the woman holding her hostage:
"The woman in your hand is innocent. If you kill her by mistake, I will shoot you immediately. Not only will you fail to get your revenge, but you will also lose your life. Think about your children. If you die, what will happen to your children?"
The woman was shocked by her. Although she did not let go of Maureen, she held the knife farther away. She began to look at Xia Beibei nervously and manically.
"Let Lu Jiaming come out. I only want Lu Jiaming!"
Xia Beibei turned her head to look at the old man of the Lu family who was standing aside with a serious look on his face. Just as she was about to speak, there was a sudden loud noise behind her, followed by screams from the crowd.
"Ah! Someone's dead!"
There were fierce screams. Xia Beibei looked back, but before she could see the man's face clearly, she heard Zhou Xun say:
"Okay, no need to call, she doesn't need to kill anyone, Lu Jiaming is really dead"
Lu Jiaming?
Xia Beibei was stunned and was about to go over to take a look when she accidentally saw a woman swaying on the second floor out of the corner of her eye. She had seen Huang Can's photo many times, so she recognized that face. It was Huang Can!
Huang Can was standing right below Lu Jiaming! As soon as this thought came to her mind, Xia Beibei suddenly rushed over and knocked out the woman with a knife who was staring blankly in the direction of Lu Jiaming's body.
"Zhou Xun, call the police and ask for Shen Yunfei from the Criminal Police Brigade!"
Xia Beibei shouted, then stepped on the sofa next to her and climbed upstairs. Her movements were so fast that Zhou Xun couldn't catch her.
The surroundings were in chaos, with cries and screams mixed together. The security guards rushed in to maintain order. The Lu family members were crying around the corpse. After Zhou Xun called the police, he quickly ran to the second floor.
On the second floor, Xia Beibei found Huang Can in the bedroom at the end of the corridor. Huang Can was about to jump out of the window to escape, but Xia Beibei pounced on her, grabbed her hand, and threw her into the house.
Huang Can was thrown to the ground, rolled over and quickly got up, barely catching a kick from Xia Beibei, and the two soon started fighting.
After a few rounds, Xia Beibei threw her to the ground with a fierce shoulder throw and pointed a gun at her.
"You'd better be honest. I'm not a good shot. If the gun goes off accidentally, you can't blame me if you go to hell."
Huang Can reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, slowly got up from the ground, and suddenly laughed sarcastically.
"You are quite honest, but it's not that you are a bad shooter. You just don't dare to shoot. Otherwise, you wouldn't have had a gun to use when you rushed in just now."
Huang Cancan picked up the fallen sunglasses from the ground and put them on, then took two steps towards her and sneered:
"Xia Beibei, in the disaster that happened to the Xia family 20 years ago, you watched with your own eyes as your beloved grandfather and parents were shot in the head. This is a hurdle you can't get over. Although you are a police officer, you never dare to shoot at anyone."
Seeing that Xia Beibei's forehead was already sweating, she took another step forward.
"Two years ago, when you were on a mission, a murderer shot and killed a hostage in front of you, but you didn't even have the courage to shoot the murderer. Xia Beibei, admit it, the gun is just an accessory to you."
Xia Beibei's face was already pale. She gripped the gun tightly, her palms were sweating, and her cold eyes were fixed on Huang Can.
"You know everything about me. Huang Can, did you kill Lu Jiaming?"
Huang Can spread his hands innocently, "I don't understand what you are saying at all. I am a good citizen, how could I kill someone, but..."
After she finished speaking, her face was gloomy and sarcastic. She slowly lifted her skirt. There was a pistol tied to her leg. Huang Can pointed the gun at Xia Beibei and laughed wildly.
"However, you don't dare to shoot, but I do, Xia Beibei. Do you know that if he hadn't given a death order not to hurt you, I would have killed you last time on the boat."
Suddenly remembering something, she stopped laughing and her voice began to become sharp and ferocious.
"Just because you suffered minor skin injuries last time, he almost beat me to death, Xia Beibei, what gave you the right? How am I inferior to you? You only suffered minor skin injuries, but he beat me half to death. If I wasn't lucky, I would have died already."
She became more and more excited as she spoke, and her right hand was slowly pulling the trigger. Suddenly, the door was kicked open from the outside. Huang Can subconsciously pointed the gun at the door. Xia Beibei narrowed her eyes and immediately smashed the gun in her hand towards her hand.
"ah!"
Huang Can screamed in pain and the pistol fell to the ground. After she came to her senses, she quickly bent down to pick it up. Xia Beibei kicked her away with a beautiful side kick, and then picked up the two guns on the ground very quickly.
Her movements were smooth and in just a few seconds, Zhou Xun ran over from the door, held her arm and looked her up and down, and was relieved to see that she was not injured.
"Thank goodness you're okay, I was so scared"
After saying that, he held the person in his arms and reached out to touch the back of her head. Huang Can got up from the ground, covered her shoulder and walked out. Xia Beibei heard the noise and quickly pushed Zhou Xun away to chase after her.
Huang Can ran very fast. When Xia Beibei ran out, she was already downstairs. Fortunately, the local police had already arrived. Xia Beibei shouted to the four policemen who had just come in:
"Stop the woman in the yellow dress and sunglasses, she is the murderer!"
