Chapter 137 Life hangs on a thread
"Captain Xing, target found."
A simple and clear report came from Xing Kai's headphones.
Xing Kai gestured to the police officers behind him, and they immediately quickened their pace and changed their route.
"Found it?" Su Qingyan asked hurriedly.
But no one responded to him this time.
Lu Ze felt that Su Qingyan was indeed confused because of his concern, so he stopped him again.
"We just need to follow them, don't worry."
How could Su Qingyan not be anxious? His heartbeat was getting faster and faster. He was nervous and expectant, yet also a little afraid. His stomach began to churn again, and the feeling of vomiting became stronger and stronger. He suppressed the urge to vomit again and again, and followed the fully armed policemen into the cabin.
The armed police who arrived first were already in front of the container, preparing to force their way in.
When Su Qingyan saw the bloodstains on the ground, his body shook involuntarily. He quickly reached out to pull Lu Ze and prevented him from falling to the ground.
Lu Ze looked at him nervously and concernedly, his arm aching from being grabbed by him.
With a sharp sound, the container was opened.
When Su Qingyan saw the scene inside, the hairs on his body stood up and cold sweat ran down his forehead.
Zhou Cheng was kneeling on the ground covered in blood, his head slightly lowered, and his body was tied tightly with ropes.
Behind him stood a bald man with a gun pressed against the back of his head.
"Zhou Cheng..." Su Qingyan murmured, his voice trembling involuntarily.
The distance between the two was not close, and Su Qingyan's voice should not have reached Zhou Cheng's ears, but as if they had telepathy, Zhou Cheng raised his eyes and immediately met the pair of bloodshot, anxious and nervous eyes.
And his dying heart regained its vitality.
The revolving lantern, which had already passed once, instantly went back to the moment when they first met. The two faces of the past and the present gradually merged, but the expressions were very different.
This was the first time Zhou Cheng felt panic since he was kidnapped, and his heart rate accelerated uncontrollably.
Why is Su Qingyan here?
It's so dangerous here, why is he here?
Why do you want to fall into the trap?
Get out of here!
Zhou Cheng threatened him with his eyes to step back, but Su Qingyan didn't listen at all and even took a few steps forward.
"Let us leave the country, otherwise we will kill them both immediately." The bearded man spoke first.
"Don't be impulsive, we can discuss anything." Xing Kai put down the gun in his hand and made a soothing gesture.
"Don't move, don't play tricks, make them put down their guns too."
The bearded man kept the muzzle of his gun pointed at Xing Kai.
The surrounding policemen received the order and put down their guns one after another.
The bald man was holding Zhou Cheng, the scarred man was holding Jiang Xingyao, and the bearded man was at the rear. They began to move slowly outwards.
"If you dare to play tricks, I will shoot immediately. Guns have no eyes, and who knows if it will accidentally go off." The bearded man kept threatening the police with words.
Zhou Cheng passed in front of Su Qingyan with a gun pointed at him.
When Su Qingyan saw that he was covered in wounds and looked like a bloody man, her heart felt as if it was being rubbed and torn by countless hands, causing her to feel so painful that she couldn't breathe.
This is the second time Zhou Cheng has been in danger because of himself...
During the slow evacuation, Zhou Cheng staggered, leaving a trail of bloody footprints behind him. When he walked down the stairs from the freighter to the ground, he almost fell down and was kicked hard by the bald man several times.
Su Qingyan felt like the air was full of blades. Every breath he took felt like his lungs were being cut by knives, and his nostrils were filled with the smell of blood.
Every stumbling step Zhou Cheng took seemed to be stepping on his own heart.
After stumbling upon the dock, the kidnappers locked onto the helicopter at a glance.
"Fill up that helicopter."
While waiting for refueling, Su Qingyan and Zhou Cheng kept communicating with each other through their eyes. Su Qingyan finally realized what it meant to weep blood, but he didn't cry. What was the point of crying? He was just heartbroken and angry. Once Zhou Cheng was out of danger, he would make these kidnappers pay the price.
"The helicopter is full of fuel. Can we release the hostages?" Xing Kai continued to confront the kidnappers.
"I'll return it to you once we're on the helicopter."
The bearded man still looked alert. He winked at the other two and they began to walk towards the helicopter.
There was a long flight of stairs on the way to the helicopter. Zhou Cheng had just climbed two steps when he tripped and fell. Of course, he was beaten again.
Su Qingyan finally couldn't bear it anymore, pushed away the policemen in front of him, and took a few steps forward.
"Let Zhou Cheng go! Let me go!"
These shocking words made everyone present tremble with fear.
"Qingyan! Are you kidding?" Lu Ze pulled Su Qingyan back and scolded him in a low voice.
"Oh, Young Master Su is so affectionate and loyal." The bearded man also stopped and looked back at Su Qingyan.
When Zhou Cheng heard Su Qingyan's words, he was so angry that he trembled all over. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he stood up, turned around, and shouted to him:
"Su Qingyan! Try taking another step forward! Go back!"
"Keep going! Who wants to watch you perform an idol drama?" The bald man poked Zhou Cheng's back with a gun and asked him to continue going up the stairs.
Several policemen came over and controlled Su Qingyan. They didn't want anything to go wrong at the critical moment.
Su Qingyan had never experienced the word "powerlessness" before, but now he felt it truly.
"Qingyan, calm down. Once they get on the plane, Zhou Cheng will be safe." Lu Ze comforted Su Qingyan.
When the container was opened, Su Qingyan understood that all this must be related to Su Chonglin. There was definitely something wrong with his and Jiang Yuexing's Xinghai business.
Otherwise, how could Jiang Xingyao and Zhou Cheng, two people with no connection at all, be locked up together?
Why doesn’t Jiang Xingyao have any injuries on his body? Is it just because he is the young master of the Jiang family?
Su Qingyan now even began to hate the Jiang family.
This journey is as difficult and long as a pilgrimage.
After the kidnappers boarded the helicopter, Scarface pushed Jiang Xingyao out and quickly walked to the driver's seat to start the helicopter.
Several armed police officers immediately rushed over to protect Jiang Xingyao and quickly transferred him to a safe location.
Xing Kai felt relieved.
The young master of the Jiang family was rescued, and the mission was 90% completed.
Su Qingyan once again broke through the crowd and rushed to the front. He was anxiously waiting for Zhou Cheng to get off the helicopter.
The propeller started to turn, and the roar shook the eardrums. When the helicopter gradually rose, Zhou Cheng was kicked down.
Su Qingyan didn't care about anything else. The potential in his body was fully stimulated, and he was the first to rush to Zhou Cheng.
Hugged him tightly.
The tears that I had been trying so hard to hold back finally burst out.
"Zhou Cheng..." Su Qingyan raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes before daring to look up at him.
"It's okay." Zhou Cheng forced a not-so-nice smile.
"Zhou Cheng, I--" Su Qingyan choked and wanted to continue speaking.
"I know, let's talk about it when we get back." Zhou Cheng gently touched his cheek with his lips.
Su Qingyan didn't plan to wait any longer, but when he looked up at Zhou Cheng, he unexpectedly discovered the black muzzle of a gun sticking out of the helicopter's hatch.
Like a conditioned reflex, he rushed in front of Zhou Cheng and opened his arms to block him under his body.
“Bang, bang—”
Two gunshots ripped the air.
Zhou Cheng was just wondering what Su Qingyan was going to do, and then he heard the sound of shooting, and the huge impact force passed through Su Qingyan and hit him.
Blood splashed into his eyes, and the whole world instantly turned blood red.
