chapter 166

The two of them circled around the warehouse for quite a while before finding another door.TdwAXFUasxwHDudxnRcOejXkMUnaNk

This factory was originally for manufacturing auto parts. The warehouse they were in was four stories high, with an open space in the middle for storage, while the outer ring consisted of functional areas, including equipment rooms, material rooms, small warehouses, offices, and so on.VzIcEyQXsxhbMdFhiGDwLaMbHSfduc

CqrLnmMmcgGlQic

Now, the storage area had mostly been emptied, leaving only a few scattered shelves and abandoned products. What could be seen was either rust or thick dust, emitting a stale odor that matched the darkness perfectly.vWPIGygIHpxUIPyYnfvYpppvBAmbkg

The two of them dared not use lighting and could only rely on night vision goggles as they passed through the functional area, moving closer to the storage area.uCdPqXfLYDrjsEIdTMRfJsAHBGYyKa

In a hostage exchange, one would definitely look for an open and unobstructed area to prevent the other side from playing tricks, so they were certainly in the storage area.MimGbGJsWEVMMgOeYfLMkXSTjTSSqX

Soon, they saw a faint light ahead and heard bursts of conversation.WFlGpoTrBKJVtVYRXPbsjesFNgoVVs

The two of them removed their night vision goggles and cautiously approached the sound and light. Outside an office, they noticed a stronger light source through the dusty glass window.SkXRcjbeluFIFcWuKKnWCrOXboCczC

The office had double doors at the front and back; the front door led to the storage area, while the back door led back to the functional area. Almost all the rooms were designed this way.kwRaSMKuDBwkSgdJWdnTdGHrjSOLZh

They opened the door to the functional area and crouched as they entered the office.mLmtPLuAuYAkIdrHcbcvLvebTjoevx

Ren Yi wiped a patch of dust off a window with his sleeve and caught a glimpse of the storage area. At the same time, he saw two people with their heads bowed, tied to chairs—one man and one woman. It was the couple who had been kidnapped at the Jianxing Hotel. From their limp postures, they seemed to be unconscious.GhtvyTkqodcFldzLYqlBMDHfsNdcWk

Ren Yi whispered, “We can only see the hostages here. Shouldn’t we go around to Huang Yan’s back?”OAjHeuhbmzkQaotGsiKpoPJFVBPZrJ

“Let’s go in first.”VdfnMKTURUqXbLmkIoNTRJJMZhhdif

Ren Yi carefully pushed open the office door and stealthily entered the storage area. They were at the edge of the storage area, with the natural cover of darkness making it difficult for others to spot them.ppkaklYjSuYHgdqELsoRDKWPyWvGMk

They ran behind a shelf and finally got a clear view of everyone.geuOdPMytdgtzotucTShLiUcGDePuw

Gong Yingxian was holding Bai Yan, about ten meters away from the hostages. Upon closer inspection, it was clear that explosives were tied to the hostages. Not far behind the hostages stood a tall, burly man, around forty, bald, with a fierce appearance, holding a gun.bglTKQZUUMJOvcwQGLNTzluprFVjIs

That was Huang Yan, the one who set fire to the Wenhui Shopping Mall and caused Sun Dingyi’s death!hgXhsyXmlTEwkQSSdrzBdvwbBRLnwu

Ren Yi took a deep breath but couldn’t suppress the trembling of his body.LpxhRCvHEJABzvzkDaxuuQOVKiSUdR

Gong Yingxian and Huang Yan were negotiating something, but at this distance, they couldn’t hear clearly.VZcYAjvAbTeCCSOVCrSKcvYJCHfgxD

Ren Yi quietly asked, “What should we do?”BSVTIfUqhvYAyfMdwbGXzAvLMFXgJq

“Let them exchange hostages first. After ensuring the hostages’ safety, we can attract Huang Yan’s attention, giving Yingxian a chance to subdue him,” Qiu Yan thought for a moment. “We need to act separately.”hjnYpxEuvAQHHGRmxacEXZaSTkOKmt

qtelogvXhvHiyqh

“How do we act?”riiomRFHYBgYJCnpxegGoJeGhHBhsb

QByowZjXRyeQvSt

“You attract Huang Yan’s attention while I help Yingxian subdue Huang Yan and Bai Yan and rescue the hostages,” Qiu Yan said. “First, we need to find a suitable position that allows us to circle around to Huang Yan’s back while getting as close to him as possible. Then you throw a small bomb, and after throwing it, just run. Remember, after throwing it, just run. Don’t worry about anyone else; find a safe place to hide, and we’ll come to find you.”EtypEpaypCOLualopEQmlivWTCIGtz

“…” Ren Yi looked at Huang Yan in the distance, his hatred boiling like water reaching a boil. It was this man who caused Sun Dingyi’s death. His brother was so young, with a bright future ahead, a love about to be fulfilled, and infinite possibilities for the future, but because of this man, everything was lost.vSfrwnDfJPzvZRMsWmPzXdjQiKrGFN

During the hardest times, he had to endure the torment in his heart by fantasizing about how to take revenge in the most brutal way, but now that the enemy was right in front of him, he could only turn and run away?RHaISPVfGSqIUWvXUSOCuooREmiHuw

“Ren Yi!” Qiu Yan suddenly grabbed Ren Yi by the collar.JOdwAGMHloyPHxDAPQiVYSTSvSTaEJ

Ren Yi hesitated and nodded.DBAOoNmIzmWSUHCryQiyqeFEyfBmCr

“I know you want revenge. I know you want to tear him apart, but you also know he should face legal consequences. If you can’t do what I just said, it could put both me and Yingxian in danger. Answer me again: will you do exactly as I say, without any extra actions or taking matters into your own hands? Can you do that?”FhzyjmMrjOMYLfHiTclkGsocKDSvPn

Using the cover of darkness, they finally found a suitable shelf. The two of them crouched behind it, and Ren Yi pulled out a small vial from his pocket, gripping it tightly.mpLnFRCnFStjjJYmhvZhuNzmYNqtMk

“Are we going to stalemate until dawn?” Gong Yingxian said coldly. “Fine, I’ll take a step back. I’ll let him walk over to the hostages and have him disarm the bomb on them.”RzPcKoVRAULlmAOvoAprrHOFStAWQB

Gong Yingxian took out a key and unlocked one side of the handcuffs.YxUSVyJtvkVGnoRzVtsNcUgtgIVZVB

“Put it aside, step back,” Gong Yingxian ordered.QfnCTrpLjCDWUBfvbtWurykfYqXbDA

Bai Chicheng glanced at Huang Yan, who nodded, and he then carried the bomb away to the side, moving in the direction where Ren Yi and Qiu Yan were hiding.JzZgQAwFYzegSqqnjbNlSZDDqpFETG

Although they were in the dark, they could still be seen if someone looked closely.ghjfIVlmelMunfdHOZDnsdlBEZLgot

Bai Chicheng paused, suddenly shouting, “They have accomplices!”YfaJAhlpANFKWojgiXHUYscGyQcpuP

The sudden turn of events caught Ren Yi off guard. In the next moment, everyone present sprang into action.chUEDZsoWsKsotUEcprlCWulNRDgJa

Qiu Yan shouted, “Now!” Ren Yi threw the small vial in his hand with all his might towards Bai Chicheng. Gong Yingxian swiftly aimed his gun at Huang Yan and decisively fired. Huang Yan fell to the ground.NpOgVabaGITeOGcOJqSrrxvBuEjCBR

The most unbelievable thing was that the two hostages, who had been slumped in their chairs, suddenly stood up, uniformly pulling guns from their pockets!LdXozrGJjpffKpmmWFnRDKISpeINuW

Everything happening before Ren Yi’s eyes felt like it was in slow motion. He watched as the two raised their guns, aiming at Gong Yingxian, his eyes nearly bursting with rage as he shouted.uwkJiHXtHXosNbVspYrzFwFQixRZfZ

Almost simultaneously, two gunshots rang out. One “hostage” fell backward, blood splattering, while Gong Yingxian rolled to the ground, the gunfire following him.UgNGscYWFATWPoudtokdKBJuyFcfYv

Gong Yingxian quickly took cover behind a nearby shelf, but the “hostage” relentlessly pursued him, bullets striking the metal shelves, the cold sound echoing in the empty warehouse, sending chills down one’s spine.GkfOtDWaAsDjdiduLaRnGwfXDbRJWU

“Yingxian—” Ren Yi’s mind was racing, his eyes nearly bleeding from the intensity.XrMosCgagJYAacanJOrHFtRbmNlliU

Qiu Yan shouted at him, “Go after Bai Chicheng!” After saying that, he rushed towards the fallen “hostage.”MsXdgxIvvrlNVqJRtkDkrqSgVloHJL

Ren Yi turned to look, and Bai Chicheng was already nearing the exit. Huang Yan was struggling to get up from the ground, not a drop of blood on him, clearly wearing a bulletproof vest.fdGtfKiADzRydsLlCMeXDxAvsZBYJh

After getting up, Huang Yan fled towards the functional area, while Qiu Yan picked up the fallen “hostage’s” gun and pursued him.ZhNwsoXdWZDSMyoptuIsAeXpsTEKMr

Ren Yi ran out of the warehouse in one breath. Bai Chicheng was weaving through the tall grass, glancing back in terror as he ran.WkBrTNdtsntEGZboWyPAzXPVlUuWMG

Ren Yi stretched his long legs and chased after him. Bai Chicheng couldn’t outrun Ren Yi; just as he exited the factory gate, Ren Yi caught up to him. Ren Yi kicked him hard in the back, causing him to cry out in pain and fall to the ground.gZTlpTKjmrlQjCwNdQEYczMFrAxTNU

Ren Yi grabbed Bai Chicheng by the collar and landed a heavy punch on that detestable face, pouring all his hatred, anger, worry, and fear into that punch. The force was so strong that it was undoubtedly the hardest punch he had ever thrown in his life.nghtpdkvnDgjLlDyUpIUsfHhQZlySd

Bai Chicheng’s two teeth flew out of his mouth, mixed with blood, but Ren Yi was still unsatisfied and hit him two more times until he knocked him unconscious.gsmQskWjnXSXTyvOhDwknvcpvYGozh

Huang Yan was so treacherous that he had even replaced the hostages with his own people. If Gong Yingxian hadn’t reacted in time, it would have been the three of them lying in a pool of blood!jiDMFMmlOltHTfpyhCztRKWRztzSWZ

He had no idea how Gong Yingxian and Qiu Yan were doing. They were facing armed criminals; how could he possibly find a safe place to hide?keWCuPjRTBAwXeyaTbRPiJWolSUPJq

Running back to the warehouse, the storage area was already empty—except for the fallen “hostage.”SLPgXQmhVYSKstgGpnrnpVVSxHLQtn

Ren Yi looked around and ran to the person. His instincts as a firefighter made it impossible for him to ignore the injured person, especially since this person was also an important witness.ZChiUPGXTvAaHXTphkcgYquoohIBUZ

bFhFeyBxTEhEwCu

This person was wearing a wig and a somewhat feminine red tracksuit, having kept his head bowed the whole time. At first glance, one would never suspect this was a man in disguise. He wondered where the real hostage couple was; it was likely, as Gong Yingxian had said, that they were in grave danger.snHupBCkJgazRAXHOoGJtcgmRIkfBu
