Chapter 103: The Female Police Officer Being Held Hostage

  "Lin Ruxue?" Wentao was also slightly surprised after hearing it, Lin Ruxue was kidnapped by the kidnapper, what a joke.

  "Ah!" Yanlin's head nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "The TV is still reporting it, you come and take a look quickly."

  What's even more surprising is that I saw it on TV?

  The room in Wentai's office didn't have a TV, it was originally a quiet room, now it is the pharmacy room inside which has a TV, Wentai got up and followed him over, the TV was currently broadcasting.

  It turned out that someone robbed a gold jewelry company, and the employee pressed the alarm. The three robbers shot and killed an employee, fired several shots, and escaped. In a panic, they were chased by police officers on duty nearby, and then exchanged fire nearby. Finally, they were forced into a cake shop by the police officers who arrived later. There were four people in the cake shop, two employees and two customers, who were held hostage.

  The chefs in the back actually ran out of the back door, because the space was narrow and the gangsters had guns, the police couldn't get in for a while.

  Among the four hostages, two were male customers and two were female shop assistants in their early twenties. One of the girls was beaten and seriously injured with heavy bleeding after resisting. Lin Rushi voluntarily went inside to replace the injured girl later on.

  Because Lin Ruxue was a female police officer, the other party agreed, and as a result, Lin Ruxue became a hostage in the hands of the robbers.

  After reading, Wen Tao couldn't help but laugh, it turned out that Yanlin was wrong. Kidnapping and hijacking are two completely different concepts. Wen Tao also found it strange, how could there be kidnappers who live so unhappily. Wanting to find the police to kidnap, it turns out they were hijackers, not kidnappers.

  "Doctor Wen, you must save Officer Lin! She's in the hands of bad people, it's too dangerous. Officer Lin is a good cop!" Yanlin's current state was strange. Wentai usually didn't keep anything from her, and she should have known his affairs best, but she knew nothing because she never asked or thought about anything.

  Yanlin had a nearly blind worship of Wentao, in her heart, there was nothing that Wentao couldn't do, perhaps she thought about what gods couldn't do, but Wentao in her heart was all-powerful.

  "Good police." Wentao muttered to himself twice, in this era, good police are really hard to find, good police have almost become a synonym for foolishness.

  This matter cannot be ignored.

  "Wait a moment, I'll be back to continue our conversation." Wentao greeted Luotengyun and rushed off immediately.

  The area within a 200-meter radius of the cake shop has been cordoned off with police tape, as the media is now open. There are also many foreign journalists around who are busy at work. If it were in the past, this kind of thing would never have been reported before it was over.

  Even with more police around, it didn't affect Wentai's approach, however before deciding what to do next, Wentai didn't rush to get closer.

  He had already clearly understood the situation inside through his spiritual awareness. The space inside was not large, with only a 30-square-meter door face in front and a relatively large kitchen behind. The four hostages, including Lin Ruxue, were now in the back. Their arms were all wrapped with transparent tape, it seemed that the bandits also used local materials.

  One of the bandits' bodies was trembling slightly. He held a gun and pointed it at the four people, mainly aiming at Lin Ruxue, the female police officer. The other two men, one holding a gun, guarded the front door and the back door respectively.

  It seems that it has just begun, the police have started shouting and the phone inside the cake shop is ringing, apparently the police want to negotiate with them.

  Hehe... Having understood the situation inside, Wentao couldn't help but laugh dryly. Although he didn't quite understand the situation of ordinary people being robbed. However, even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pigs run, and it's said that there are many successful robberies without getting caught, but as for successfully holding hostages and escaping, it seems like there hasn't been a successful case in the country yet. A group of guys with problematic brains. Fortunately, they were all wearing those robbery hats that can be easily bought online, not stockings, otherwise, I would really admire them.

  These thugs are also too nervous, like Lin Ruxue, not only her arms were wrapped with transparent tape as a rope, but also her mouth and feet were tied up and lying on the ground.

  Communicating with ordinary people can't be done in the same way as with cultivators, where one can directly transmit thoughts through spiritual awareness.

  Wen Tao took out the Eight Sounds Town Soul Whistle again, using this super-strong treasure as if it were a phone: "Officer Lin, I knew you were very brave, but I didn't think you'd be brave to this extent."

  At this time, Lin Ruxue, who couldn't move at all, was lying on the ground, and suddenly there was a voice in her mind.

  Who is this? Is it an auditory hallucination? How can there be someone talking in my own mind?

  "Haha......" Wentao smiled and said: "Didn't you hear wrong?"

  Lin Ruxue had already confirmed that someone was talking to her, and then she discovered a very frightening thing - this person actually knew what she was thinking. Her small mouth was sealed with transparent tape, unable to speak at all, yet he could...

  "Ghost? Is there a ghost?"

  Wen Tao was speechless, why did he always think he was a ghost whenever he used the Eight Sound Soul-Stirring Flute to communicate with others?

  "Don't worry, I'm not a ghost." Wentao helplessly reminded her again just to avoid Lin Ruxue's tension and prevent her from thinking wildly.

  Lin Ruxue's calmness and reaction were almost on par with Wang Lao, who was a national player, except that Wang Lao had a more tranquil state of mind. Lin Ruxue, however, had a stronger ability to handle sudden events, as Wentai hadn't changed much this time, and the voice echoing in Lin Ruxue's mind was still Wentai's true tone.

  Ling Ruxue, who had calmed down, suddenly felt something was off. This voice, this voice... Ling Ruxue, lying on the ground, became slightly agitated. This voice was too familiar, and she had often heard it in her dreams, recalling the calm and serious tone that made her feel suffocated, even in her sleep.

  Is it him? Is it really him?

  The effect of the Eight Sounds Town Soul Whistle is indeed mysterious, but it hasn't reached the level where you can know what others are thinking in their minds. Each time a sound is transmitted into someone's mind, if they immediately respond with an answer as if they were thinking of it, it will be sent back like a matching frequency. In reality, only one sentence corresponding to the one transmitted into their mind can be sent back each time, but it feels like you know everything they're thinking about in their minds.

  "You... are Wentao?" Lin Ruxue was extremely familiar with this voice, a voice she had dreamed of countless times, yet when Wentao spoke to her in this manner, it still gave her an unbelievable feeling.

  "I didn't expect Officer Lin to be so intelligent in addition to being brave."

  These words made Lin Ruxue feel a sense of powerlessness again, bravery? I don't know if it's just my imagination. It always feels like this guy's bravery is not being praised, no, it should be said that it's definitely not being praised, and what about cleverness?

  Forget it, anyway this guy says what now, oneself will always think of many things, really.

  Although she was in a predicament, Lin Ruxue herself didn't even realize it. After chatting with Wentao for just two sentences, she gradually became less tense. Her tightly strung body began to relax, and her whole person also loosened up. Mentally, it was as if she had put down a huge mountain.

  Of course, thinking of Wen Tao's words that always make people think of countless possibilities, it can be said to be both torturous and interesting.

  "How can you still be like this? At first, I thought you were kind and honest, but it turns out you're the worst. Look at me now, are you saying I'm smart and brave to mock me?"

  Wen Tao sighed helplessly: "If you want to understand it this way, I have no choice. All I can say is that my heart was originally directed at the bright moon, but unfortunately, the bright moon shines on the ditch."

  Lin Ruxue was amused by Wen Tao's words and couldn't help but laugh, although her mouth was sealed shut and no sound came out. Her facial expression and heart were already filled with joy, a rare moment of relaxation in this conversation with Wen Tao, who seemed simple and honest on the surface but was actually infuriating. However, since they weren't face-to-face, she felt more at ease and could let loose even more.

  Lin Ruxue's rarely seen face was slightly displeased in tone: "You still have the nerve to use such an old movie line."

  "Wrong, I originally intended to face the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch" is from "A Collection of Qing Poetry Events" Volume 21, page 15106, last line.

  "You're really weird, sometimes it's like now, every time I talk to you, I'm telling myself. In fact, you seem to be loyal and honest, but when you speak, your words are so serious and solemn... yet there's always something that makes people feel strange and annoyed, feeling like you're doing it on purpose."

  Wen Tao originally wanted to communicate with Lin Ruxue first, and then enter the matter of defeating the bandits later. Of course, more importantly, he wanted to see what this brave but somewhat impulsive police officer was thinking about at this time and place, but unexpectedly, it brought out Lin Ruxue's inner feelings instead.

  For Lin Ruxue, all the dangers around her no longer existed at this moment. For Lin Ruxue, there was nothing better than this moment, and what she was most surprised about earlier was how she could talk to herself like that in her own mind, but now she didn't think about it anymore.

  There's no better time than now to speak out, so many things have happened in the past year, Lin Ruxue has been suppressing and controlling herself all along, but at this moment she let everything go.

  "But as a doctor, you are the most extraordinary and great one I have ever seen... no, even among those I know. Your simple actions, which seem like quirks, cannot hide your heart that saves people."

  "What makes you think I'm talking about you?"

  "Haha......" Lin Ruxue laughed with a sigh of relief: "Is it that you're not important, at least this is the good impression you gave me as a doctor. This is also the reason why I have many questions and misunderstandings in my heart, which have been suppressed for a long time."

  Wen Tao didn't expect it would turn out like this. In the past, when he met Lin Ruxue, she wouldn't say such things either.

  Moreover, these words sound very private, and Lin Ruxue had never said anything like that before.

  When Wen Tao suddenly fell silent, Lin Ruxue continued: "I don't know if you can still hear my words. Actually, it's nothing. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. It's really... strange that we could chat for a bit today, just like our previous encounters, every conversation was always a bit unusual."

  "As long as you keep talking, or respond to what I just said, I can hear you." Lin Ruxue said this, and Wentai only then noticed that this way of conversing was indeed quite special. It was also normal for Lin Ruxue to have some regrets in this setting.

  "Are you still wanting to ask about the Mi family father and son, wanting to ask about the explosion case, wanting to ask some private things about me?"

  Wen Tao's words hit Lin Ruxue right in the heart, and at this moment, Lin Ruxue calmly said: "It's basically these, the rest are just some minor details."

  Lin Ruxue had been afraid to ask before, because Wentai's answers were always so shocking that Lin Ruxue was a little intimidated by his responses. It wasn't that she was afraid he wouldn't answer or that he wouldn't tell the truth, but rather that what he said would be too true and too stunning.

  At this time, the bandit who was holding a pistol and trembling looked at Lin Ruxue, just in time to see the relaxed smile on Lin Ruxue's face.

  "What's so funny...!" The bandit, who was already extremely terrified, was frightened by Lin Ruxue's laughter and shouted in anger.

  Lin Ruxue was also pulled back by his loud shout, returning to reality once again.

  "Damn it, what's so funny..." The guy's gun was excitedly pressed against Lin Ruxue's head.

  Whoa, this is getting big, Wentai's spiritual consciousness has been shrouding the house all along, and unexpectedly this bandit was stimulated by Lin Ruxue's smile. Wentai immediately jumped out of the building next door, his body moved, leaving a faint residual shadow, and he disappeared.

  "Lao San, you're crazy! She's our lucky charm..." A guy who was guarding the back door came up and blocked Lin Ruxue with a swoop.

  "Bang!" The guy's finger moved, and a bullet had already been fired. The bullet hit the thick alloy steel plate of a large toaster oven next to him.

  "Ah……" The bullet ricocheted, and the unlucky guy let out a miserable cry. Meanwhile, Wentai had also crawled out from the ground, using the same Earth Concealment Technique that Han Liyang's subordinate used last time.
