Chapter 55: Prelude of Despair (4)

  Lin Yuan didn't know how much longer Xia Zhu and Zou Mu Yan below could hold on, but he understood more than anyone else that the time left for himself was limited.

  This is the final gamble, betting on Xi Zhe's heart.

  "Even if you kill them, you can only live in the shadow of Xi Bo, because he has always been the one you shine towards."

  It was as if a needle had been inserted into Xi Zhuo's heart, his pupils becoming increasingly disordered. His knife slowly turned forward, and to Lin Yuanbei's surprise, he began to slash at him. But the look in his eyes was no longer clear, instead filled with thick despair and sadness: "If I can't kill them, then I'll kill you... Killing you will mean that no one will be stronger than Xi Zhuo, hahahaha..."

  "Let her go, I'll be your hostage." Lin Yuan's eyes seemed to hold a certain mesmerizing meaning.

  His expression was calm and composed, but his palms were clenched tightly, with blood seeping out from between them.

  These days, he has already become a spent force.

  But Lin Yuanlie still couldn't fall down. Once Lin Yuanlie fell down, there would be no one who could stand up to maintain this situation.

  He could faintly hear Zou Mianyuan's curses from below, as well as the sound of a tool prying at the partition.

  Wait a little longer...

  Lin Yuan thought, just wait a little longer, maybe there will be an astonishing turn of events.

  Xizhuo looked at the partition board that was constantly being pried open, and his eyes suddenly became dazed.

  It's now!

  Lin Yuanji was like a leopard waiting for an opportunity to pounce, and he sprang into action!

  Xī Zhuó gazed at Lín Yuǎn Kè who was suddenly closing in, a hint of frantic laughter flashing across the bottom of his eyes, and then he raised his knife and stabbed forward!

  Lin Yuanqie didn't hide or conceal himself, and at the cost of everything, he reached out to grab Xia Zhu who was being held back by the scorching heat.

  This time, it's definitely going to be a lose-lose situation for both parties.

  But just as all hope seemed lost, Xia Zhu suddenly moved.

  She was still very weak, her hands almost unable to gather strength, but such a Xia Zhu suddenly burst into difficulty, her elbow bent towards Xi Zuo and fiercely bumped.

  "Elbows are the most powerful weapon of the human body," Lin Yuanlie once taught them: "If you're held from behind and have already lost your threatening power in people's eyes, then it's likely to use your elbows, striking forward from front to back, right into the person's lungs. At that moment, he will definitely let go, and what we can grasp is just that moment."

  At that time, Lin Yuanxi never thought that one day Xia Zhu would use this trick to save their lives.

  Xie Zhuo didn't have time to react and was bumped by Xia Zhu, so he instinctively bent down to press the painful spot.

  Lin Yuanxiao didn't hesitate and pulled out his gun, firing three shots at Xi Zhuo's ankle.

  One bullet hit Xí Zhuó's abdomen, one at his ankle, and another... who knows where it went.

  "Good marksmanship."

  He was pulled into her arms by Lin Yuanqi, his voice a bit muffled, and he coughed softly: "Sorry."

  "Don't be like this..." Xia Zhu was dazed for a moment, and reached out to tidy Lin Yuanxi's hair.

  They had Xi Zao firmly shackled, and only then did they reach out to open the cover of the dungeon.

  "How is it?" Lin Yuan asked.

  What came flying was Zou Mu Yuan's furious fist, which stopped at the tip of Lin Yuan Bo's nose. Zou Mu Yuan took two deep breaths: "Why do you look like you're dying?"

  Lin Yuanxiao bitterly smiled: "Is there?"

  "Go back and give them three days off." Zou Mianyuan didn't press the issue, waving his hand to signal the team to disperse.

  Lin Yuan looked at Xia Zhu, and Xia Zhu ran over with a nod: "We want one week."

  "Go to the hospital and stay there, come out again when you're healed."

  "Thanks, Captain." Xia Zhu smiled and said, also feeling a bit drained.

  "That week's vacation..." Lin Yuanqi said faintly.

  Zou Mianyuan watched the two of them with interest for a while, before smiling slightly: "Wait until you're on your honeymoon, I'll give you a month."

  "That's a statutory holiday." Xia Zhu protested.

  "That's right, so I'll give it to you." Zou Muyuan said with a hint of a smile.

  "Captain!" came a voice from within the dungeon.

  Zou Mianyuan was taken aback for a moment, and his face suddenly turned very ugly.

  Several people walked over quickly and took a look, and indeed, Xi Bao was nowhere to be seen.

  This was a well-planned escape, and Shi Biao had guessed the outcome from the very beginning.

  He thought of all their details, including now, a perfect escape.

  "We will meet again. P.S. Ah Qi, your mother was not killed by me. - Xi Bao" This is the only ending left by Xi Bao for everyone.

  Lin Yuan stared at the strip for a long time, his expression unchanged.

  Zou Mianyuan hesitated for a moment before reaching out to pat Lin Yuanxi's shoulder: "I'll order someone to go find him, you go with Xia Zhu to the hospital first."

  "......Alright." Lin Yuanhe hesitated for a moment before finally responding.

  "Summer Bamboo." Lin Yuanqi suddenly said.

  Xia Zhu was stunned and hadn't reacted yet when she was enveloped in a slightly cool embrace. Lin Yuanli seemed to have regained a lost treasure, tightly hugging Xia Zhu, burying his head in her slightly cool hair, almost greedily feeling Xia Zhu's temperature.

  He was really scared.

  It's been too long, I haven't cherished anything sincerely, and I never thought about what it would be like to lose something.

  When truly faced with it, all that's left is shock and anger.

  That anger almost burned up all his sanity, and he nearly did something terrible.

  "Are you injured?" Lin Yuaner suddenly realized and turned Xia Zhuo around.

  "It's nothing." Xia Zhu smiled wryly.

  Lin Yuan was taken aback and suddenly realized that Xia Zhu's voice was different: "What's going on?"

  "My eyes..." Xia Zhu's eyes involuntarily welled up with tears, and her expression was also somewhat dazed: "I can barely see."

  Lin Yuanxi looked at Xia Zhu again and then at the airtight dungeon, suddenly understanding all the reasons.

  His hand slightly trembled, no longer as calm and composed as before. He stretched out his hand to cover Xia Zhu's eyes with a piece of black cloth, saying softly: "It's okay... it's okay..."

  Shengyuan hastily came over to take a look, his expression also somewhat shocked: "Xiatu has been locked up in the dark for a long time, and suddenly being pulled out by Xixue to see the strong light, so her eyes were stimulated..." He hesitated for a moment, but finally said: "Now hurry up and send her to the hospital, it should still be in time."

  "Thanks, Senior Shengyuan, don't worry."

  She reached out to touch Lin Yuan's face, but was instead held tighter by Lin Yuan: "Hospital."

  "Good." Xia Zhu nodded, unusually obedient.

  "Close your eyes and take a nap, you must be tired." Lin Yuanxi tried to make his tone softer.

  Xia Zhu was dazed for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "I'm a little hungry."

  "Alright, I'll buy you something to eat." Lin Yuan spoke in a rare gentle tone.

  "Add congee to Xiaolongbao, and it's a must-have from Sanbao's family." Xiatu continued.

  "......Alright." Although he didn't know what Sanbaojia was, Lin Yuanxi still furrowed his brow and responded.

  Unconsciously, Xia Zhu fell asleep. She felt that she had finally left the dark place behind and warm sunshine was shining on her body. It was a beautiful day.

  From start to finish, Lin Yuanxi's eyebrows were always furrowed, and his expression was unpleasant.

  "Teacher." Xi Bao sat in a car, and the person next to him hastily said.

  He didn't even lift his head, just stretched out his hand to gently stroke the dial on his watch, which faintly reflected a trace of blood, and his eyes were warm and peaceful: "Go to the suburban villa."

  "Are you going to leave town to avoid trouble?" The subordinate seemed shocked: "You...now..." But you knocked out so many police officers.

  "Cheng jiao." Xi Bao repeated in a light tone.

  His subordinates didn't dare disobey him and hastily waved their hands to signal the driver to start the car.

  "Ah He," Xi Zhuo suddenly said: "You've been following me for three years now, right?"

  Generally speaking, is the next sentence going to be taken for granted?

  Ah hastily said with a serious expression: "I have always regarded you as the most respected teacher."

  Xī Bǎo stared at his watch in a daze, and only smiled slightly after a long while: "Teacher..."

  Ah didn't know what his teacher was thinking, he could only try harder to sit up straighter.

  He nodded: "As your teacher, I can't just teach you theory. You should go back and take a good look at these things yourself."

  He said as he handed Ah He a stack of materials.

  A Hua slowly opened his eyes, which had been closed for a long time.

  This is a city's most popular topic these days, with many cases still pending.

  Whether it was the previous Lin family master's murder case, or the later coffee shop couple's case, or the explosion and arson case...

  A'he looked on, becoming more and more frightened. He glanced at the teacher beside him, Shi Bei, who was smiling happily as he covered the car window with glass: "Winter is coming soon."

  A could only nod.

  Xī Bǎo laughed: "A He, this time it's your turn."

  Before he had finished speaking, the driver stopped the car with a start: "Mr. Xi, we're here."

  Xie Ba nodded and opened the car door to get out.

  The large villa was empty and deserted, he walked in alone, with his hands behind his back and a proud expression: "A He, this time I'll give you a simple topic."

  Ah could only look up at his teacher in a daze, and then he heard Xi Bi say: "Within three days, let the media's public opinion boil over."

  He handed over a piece of paper, and Ah He's eyes widened instantly: "This is..."

  "That's right." Xi Bao's gaze fell gently on the paper, eventually turning into a soft laugh: "This is the final battle I owe Ah Qi, and now is when the good show begins."

  At such a moment, how can we not let the media come and observe?

  A He could hardly hold onto that piece of paper. If he wasn't mistaken, it was clearly all the evidence of the unresolved murder case!

  Once it is made public, who will be the first to be arrested and suffer, if not one's own teachers?

  Why...

  Xī Bǎo had already walked into the house, leaving behind only a silhouette.

  No signs of fatigue can be seen, only a happy and satisfied appearance.

  The author has something to say: Although the weather is very cold and the article is also very cold QAQ! But I will still work hard to finish writing it well (~_^)/~
