Chapter 87
That end.
Xie Xinrui shot Chen Pu with a bullet, and then he jumped up from the ground with agility, as if he had not been injured at all.
However, after being hit by that heavy punch from Chen Pu, Luo Long became timid and wanted to retreat. This timidity was gradually accumulated during his many encounters with the police over the past thirty years. At this moment, seeing Chen Pu so strong and resolute, the hidden fear in his heart gradually grew and completely engulfed the will of this villain. He stumbled to his feet and tried to run, but he was so confused that after a few steps he ended up at the waterfall.
Xie Xinrui fired two shots in extremely calm manner, hitting Luo Long's legs and causing him to fall to the ground completely. Then she ran over and shot him once in each arm, dragged him from behind to the edge of the cliff, which was only one or two steps away, and pointed the gun at his head. She quickly took out a rope from her pocket. No one knew how she tied the knot, but in a few seconds she tied her arms and Luo Long's arms together.
Chen Pu also struggled to stand up, aiming the gun at Xie Xinrui from a distance. At this time Li Qingyao ran to his side, saw that his back was covered in blood and his face was ugly. He was heartbroken and quickly supported him.
He leaned half of his body weight on her and even said, "I'm fine, don't be afraid."
Li Qingyao gritted his teeth, and the two of them raised their guns side by side, approaching Xie Xinrui step by step.
It was almost midnight, and the mountains were cold and gloomy. Xie Xinrui held Luo Long hostage and stood on the top of the cliff. The moon had completely emerged from the clouds at this time, and its clear light like water was shining down vastly and lonely, making Xie Xinrui's face almost clear. She was dressed in black clothes and black pants, and her high ponytail had fallen down at some point, leaving her jet-black hair flying in the wind, making her face look enchantingly beautiful.
Chen Pu said: "Put down your gun, you are surrounded."
Xie Xinrui glanced at Xiang Siling who was not far away, and tears flashed across her eyes. But her words were very strong: "You are the ones who need to put down your guns. If you shoot, I will shoot too. Once Luo Long dies, no one in this world will know the whereabouts of Li Jincheng. I don't think this is what you want to see."
Chen Pu and Li Qingyao were both silent.
Behind them, in the dense forest high up, the sound of chaotic and dense footsteps could be faintly heard.
Li Qingyao's palms were sweaty as he held the gun. She knew that what Xie Xinrui said was true. Xie Xinrui's stubborn path of revenge is almost coming to an end. If her wish cannot be fulfilled in the end, the paranoid girl might really do something to kill herself and Luo Long.
But she also wanted to see her brother, right?
So Li Qingyao softened his voice and advised, "You also heard that a large number of police officers are coming soon. Wangpu Mountain is surrounded by heavy forces. You can't escape. Give him to us, and you put down your gun and follow us. The police are professionals and will definitely be able to torture me to find out my brother's whereabouts. I can promise you that if we find him, I will definitely let you... meet him."
Xie Xinrui looked at her with tears in her eyes. But she quickly blinked a few times and forced back her tears. She said, "No. This is my business. It's what I promised Li Jincheng in my heart. I will torture him myself, torture him to the point where he would rather die than live, and then kill him. Then, I will find your brother myself. He must be waiting for me somewhere, always waiting for me."
Li Qingyao's tears fell and he quickly wiped them away with his sleeves.
She finally realized something, perhaps she should have realized it long ago, that Xie Xinrui's mental health had long been abnormal.
Chen Pu said at this time: "What you want to do is good, Li Jincheng will be grateful when he knows it. But we can't let you go, and you can't leave. Put down the gun, Liu Tingmei, Luo Long has committed multiple felonies, I promise you, he will definitely sentence him to death. Everything is over, you don't need to bear these things anymore, your mission has been completed. Next, we will take over."
Li Qingyao also looked at Xie Xinrui expectantly, but she didn't seem to listen to Chen Pu's sincere persuasion at all. Instead, she stared at her and said, "Li Qingyao, come here. I have something to tell you about your brother."
Li Qingyao exchanged glances with her and was about to step forward when Chen Pu grabbed his arm and said, "Don't go."
"She won't hurt me," she said softly. The two of them risked their lives to save even an unrelated little girl, otherwise how could the fight have been so brutal.
She walked forward slowly.
Chen Pu watched her walk towards Xie Xinrui step by step, and always felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart. At this moment, he felt another burst of severe pain in his back, almost causing him to fall down. However, he held his head high and held the gun tightly with his slightly trembling hands, and began to move towards them inconspicuously.
Li Qingyao walked to a position about one and a half meters away from Xie Xinrui, and Xie Xinrui said, "Okay, stop, don't come over again."
"Do you want to jump down with him?" Li Qingyao said, "Do you know how high this place is? It's definitely a dead end. Don't be stupid."
Xie Xinrui ignored her words and just stared into her eyes. Her beautiful and deep eyes were filled with tenderness: "Actually, I just want to say one thing to you: I'm sorry."
"Why?" Li Qingyao took another small step forward while speaking.
"Because your brother disappeared because he tried to save me. I couldn't apologize to him all these years, so I can only apologize to you. And your parents."
Li Qingyao's heart seemed to be hit by something, and a dull pain spread in his heart. But she calmed down instantly, and while trying to get closer to her, she said in a persuasive manner: "You are thoughtful. Since you care about my brother so much, you should understand that he doesn't want to see you go to a dead end. He definitely wants you to live well, and doesn't want to see you kill anyone. Put down the gun, and we'll talk it over..."
She hasn't finished her words yet.
Xie Xinrui smiled at her, strangled Luo Long, who was crippled like a reptile, and both of them fell backwards together.
Li Qingyao felt a sudden chill in his heart. When he thought that Luo Long was the only person in the world who knew his brother's whereabouts, he subconsciously pounced forward and grabbed Luo Long's legs.
This scene made Chen Pu, who was standing behind, heartbroken. He didn't even have time to call for help. He watched the gravity pulling Li Qingyao directly into the water of the waterfall. A new stream of water surged in, swallowing up the three people in an instant and disappearing over the cliff.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
Chen Pu stared blankly at the empty waterfall, and suddenly he ran forward with only one thought in his mind - jump down and catch her! But the severe pain in his back almost bent his body, and he fell to the ground with a bang, but immediately got up, hunched over his tall body, and rushed towards the cliff again.
Two strong arms hugged Chen Pu from behind. Xia Yongze, who had just arrived, was frightened by Chen Pu's actions and shouted, "Chen Pu, what are you doing? There is a cliff ahead! Are you trying to kill yourself?"
Chen Pu was still staring at the cliff. As a man who never shed tears easily, tears finally rolled down his cheeks. He wiped away his tears, suddenly jumped up and roared, "Get out of the way!" He punched Xia Yongze hard in the face, making the iron tower-like strong man take two steps back. Several detectives rushed over at the same time and held him down tightly. Someone shouted, "He's been shot! Doctor! Doctor!"
Xia Yongze was stunned. He covered his bleeding nose and thought, damn, Chen Pu was shot but he can still fight so well! He looked around and asked in confusion, "Where's my partner? Chen Pu! Where's my partner?!"
The cliff was in chaos, and more people came over. Amid the noise and many people's questions, Chen Pu's emotions finally seemed to calm down and he stopped struggling. He raised his pair of red eyes and insisted on going to the edge of the cliff to take a look, so he was half-supported and half-clamped by two colleagues and walked over.
Between heaven and earth, there is vastness, towering mountains, and darkness and silence.
Under the high waterfall, a huge black river was flowing in the darkness, rushing towards the indistinct distance. Where was her small figure?
