Chapter 163 Battle! (8K words, thank you readers for your monthly votes.)
Chen Hao rushed out of the nightclub desperately and got into the driver's seat of the car.
Wu Lei also followed. Just as he was about to open the car door, Chen Hao immediately stopped him.
"You stay here and continue to interrogate! If we want to catch X, we can only use Li Xue as a clue."
Wu Lei pursed his lips tightly and looked at Chen Hao. The car drove into the heavy snow.
While driving, Chen Hao took out his mobile phone and called Luo Rui again, but the phone on the other end was still turned off.
He frowned and called Jiang Dawei and Li Xueming, the same thing happened.
Chen Hao's heart sank to the bottom, and his right eyelid beat more and more violently.
Because he was driving too fast, the streets were already covered with ice in the early morning, and he almost hit the guardrail.
After handling cases for so many years, Chen Hao has never been so anxious and hesitant.
It's like there is a knife hanging over my head, and I don't know when it will fall.
When he drove into the Linjiang City Police Station, he didn't even take out the car keys, so he hurried to the gate.
Because it was not yet working hours, there were only a few colleagues on night shift in the case handling hall.
Seeing him, everyone lowered their heads.
Chen Hao grabbed a colleague and asked hurriedly: "Where is Bureau Hu?"
The man shook his head and said nothing.
Chen Hao caught another person and asked, but also received no answer.
He had no choice but to run up and come to the director's office.
The office door is open, and the desk is empty except for a gift box and a note on the coffee table.
Chen Hao walked over and picked up the note, which said: "Help me pass the tea to Luo Rui. I owe him this."
Chen Hao bit his cheek, his eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the note.
At this time, Yang Xiaorui knocked on the door.
"Team Chen..."
Chen Hao turned around and found Yang Xiaorui standing by the door, her face covered with tears.
"Bureau Hu...he just left...wuwu..."
Yang Xiaorui burst into tears and squatted on the ground.
Chen Hao felt that his legs were as heavy as lead. He slowly walked to Yang Xiaorui and reached out to hold her shoulders.
"Don't be sad, Hu Ju will be fine!"
Yang Xiaorui stood up and wiped her tears. After staying up all night, her eyes were red and her face was pale.
"Well, I'm going to check the surveillance right away and find the last surveillance footage of Li Xue before his death! Team Chen, can we catch X?"
Chen Hao nodded vigorously: "Yes, we will definitely catch him!"
Yang Xiaorui sniffed, then returned to his desk, cheered up, and started busy.
Chen Hao slowly moved to the captain's office, his body seemed to be limp, and he sat in the chair.
He raised his head and stared blankly at the ceiling. He was so uncomfortable that he didn't even want to smoke.
The snow kept falling outside the window, and time passed slowly, and he remained motionless.
He didn't know how long it had passed before he heard messy footsteps in the corridor.
The visitor walked directly into his office without knocking.
Chen Hao raised his head and looked at Kang Bolin, who was also looking at him.
"Team Chen."
Chen Hao calmed down his emotions and asked, "Didn't you go back?"
Kang Bolin did not answer, but said: "Follow me to see Director Wan."
Chen Hao's pupils tightened: "Director Wan?"
Kang Bolin had no expression on his face. Just nodded: "Let's go."
Chen Hao stood up and followed him out of the office.
Different from the previous deserted situation, the corridor is now full of people, with expressionless faces and hurried steps. Many people are carrying cardboard boxes and shuttling through various office areas.
Chen Hao followed Kang Bolin to the director's office and saw a tall, middle-aged woman sitting on the sofa. She had short ear-length hair and was wearing a uniform. It was self-evident what she meant.
When she saw Chen Hao, she immediately stood up and stretched out her hand: "Chen Hao? Nicknamed Qinggui, the most capable criminal investigation captain in Haidong Province! Hello!"
Chen Hao? Hao just looked at her and did not extend his hand.
The woman did not feel embarrassed, but retracted her hand and said with a smile: "I am the newly appointed director of the Linjiang City Police Department. My name is Wan Mingxia. You should have heard my name. I am also a criminal investigator. Origin. "
Chen Hao nodded, but still didn't speak.
In fact, Wan Mingxia had given enough face. The female secretary was helping her clean up the office. She did not sit in Hu Changyu's office chair because she did not want to irritate a loyal subordinate like Chen Hao.
Wan Mingxia didn't care about Chen Hao's cold expression, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Director Hu is just going to study, he is fine. I am just a temporary substitute. By the way, Kang Captain Kang Bolin, he is the new deputy criminal investigation detachment. He will cooperate with you well. The next security of Linjiang City will be all left to you."
Chen Hao looked at Kang Bolin, who said. horse It explained: "Don't look at me, I am also temporary. I am still confused."
Wan Mingxia said: "Don't worry, what it was like before is what it is now. In this way, we Let’s have a meeting first and let’s get to know each other briefly.”
Half an hour later, all the criminal police and logistics police officers of Linjiang City Police Station were sitting in the large conference room, including Wu Lei and others who were out investigating.
Chen Hao called Luo Rui several times, but still couldn't get through.
Wan Mingxia first introduced herself and then explained the situation. As for Hu Changyu's name, she did not mention it.
The police officers below all lowered their heads and stared at the table with serious expressions and remained silent.
Even the applause to welcome the director was sparse.
Although many people dare not participate in the pursuit of X, they do not want to lose a good director.
Wan Mingxia saw the expressions of these people in her eyes. She smiled slightly and told light-hearted jokes, trying to liven up the atmosphere.
The atmosphere did not improve as she imagined, so she had to start talking about the next work matters.
At this time, Chen Hao raised his hand. Without waiting for her to signal, he immediately stood up and said the first words of the new director after taking office.
"Director Wan, our most urgent task now is to track down , she stared at Chen Hao and asked word for word: "X? Who is X?"
Chen Hao sneered. Such a big thing was all on TV. He didn't believe Director Wan didn't know about it?
He looked around the conference room. Many police officers lowered their heads.
" , you also gave him a code name, X? That’s right, I haven’t said anything about it yet. The matter you mentioned is not part of our investigation now..."< br>
Before she finished speaking, Chen Hao immediately jumped in and said, "It's not part of our investigation? Director Wan, it's just been two days, and X is still at large. Besides, we have already investigated important clues. , when there was an explosion in the jewelry store, a woman named Li Xue brought it in in advance, and Li Xue had been killed by X last night..."
Wan Mingxia didn't wait for him to finish what she said. She slammed the table and said loudly: "Captain Chen, I know how you feel and I also know what you want to do! But please listen to me first. I just said We will no longer participate in the investigation. Captain Chen, please prepare the relevant materials for this case. We will hand it over to the provincial department and Team Zhu Yongzhu will be responsible for the investigation!"
Chen Hao was surprised. Speechless, handed over to the provincial department for investigation?
Doesn’t this mean that the top brass of the police department have acknowledged the existence of X? They didn't drop the case?
Wan Mingxia let out a breath. She glanced at Chen Hao, then at the many police officers in the conference room, and said, "Don't forget, Director Hu Changyu fought for this. Okay. , let’s not talk about this first... let’s talk about other things..."
Chen Hao sat back in his chair absentmindedly. Wan Mingxia didn’t finish what she said just now, but everyone knew that this It's like an exchange.
Director Hu used his position to continue investigating the case.
If he hadn't said those words at the press conference, then the person sitting in the top position now would not be Wan Mingxia.
Chen Hao was thinking a lot. Wan Mingxia was talking endlessly at the meeting. He was in a trance and didn't hear a word.
When the meeting was about to end, a switchboard police officer rushed into the conference room in a panic.
He first glanced at Chen Hao, then reluctantly walked towards Wan Mingxia and whispered a few words beside her.
Wan Mingxia suddenly stood up from her chair, looked at Chen Hao and Kang Bolin, and said angrily: "A murder occurred on the outskirts of the city. All three members of the family were killed. Chen Hao and Kang Bolin, you two, hurry up and take people to investigate!"
Hearing this, Kang Bolin set off immediately. Seeing that Chen Hao didn't move, he quickly patted him on the shoulder.
Chen Hao finally came back to his senses.
He followed Kang Bolin out of the police station, and after getting into the car, the latter handed him the note written by the switchboard officer.
Chen Hao took it over and looked at it, his pupils tightened.
I saw it read: In Yaojia Village on the outskirts of the city, a family of three was killed, and the head of the household was Yao Jun.
This was a massacre. The Linjiang City Police Department immediately dispatched three police cars, and forensic doctors and technical detectives were also on board.
Chen Hao looked at the note, and all the blood in his body froze, because there was a woman's name on it, named Yao Chun.
Cang Bolin felt a little worried when he saw that he had a strange look on his face.
"Captain Chen, are you okay? It seems that you have stayed up for several nights. Do you want to sleep in the car for a while?"
Chen Hao swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "What nonsense! Hurry, drive quickly!"
Kang Bolin felt a little inexplicable after being criticized.
He knew that although Chen Hao was difficult to get along with, he was never a person who got angry easily.
Chen Hao also felt that he had made a mistake and hurriedly told him the details.
After hearing this, Kang Bolin was so frightened that he didn’t even hold the steering wheel.
"You mean, Luo Rui and the others went to Yao Chun's house early this morning to investigate the situation of Hao put down his phone: "Yes, all three people's phones are turned off. ."
Kang Bailin said quickly: "Then you should quickly call the information department of the police station to locate the location. If something happens to Luo Rui and the others, let's see where the last location is."
Chen Hao. After realizing it, he quickly called Yang Xiaorui to explain the situation.
After making the call, Chen Hao exhaled and said, "Hey, I really lost my head!"
Kang Bolin advised: "You haven't rested for a long time, and the matter with Hu Ju... By the way, it's better to report this matter. After all, Wan Ju has just taken office, and we can't hide it from her."
Chen Hao nodded: "Then you call her."
Kang Bolin glanced at him: "Chen Hao, it's not me. Wan Ju is not a bad person. She also has her own difficulties. As criminal police, we only need to handle the case well. We can't interfere with other things. Yes. This phone call is considered an olive branch from you. , she will understand."
Chen Hao looked at him in surprise, Kang Bolin shrugged: "Don't blame me for not standing with you at that time, I was also called back quickly by the superiors.
Things are always unpredictable. I just returned to Guangzhou Xingshi, I got a call from the boss right away, asking me to return to Linjiang. I haven’t even packed up my things in the office yet. Chen Hao, you are the most awesome criminal police detachment leader in Haidong Province. It’s mine to partner with you. It’s an honor, don’t you treat me coldly?”
Chen Hao nodded and asked, "What's Wan Bureau's phone number?"
Kang Bolin reported a number. After Chen Hao called, Wan Mingxia immediately fell silent when she heard what he said.
She didn’t expect that as soon as she took office, she would be faced with a tragedy that wiped out her entire family, and this case was also related to X.
She suddenly felt that the chair under her butt was really difficult to sit on.
"Chen Hao, maintain the scene, I will call Team Zhu now."
When Chen Hao heard her hang up the phone, he put the phone in his pocket.
Kang Bolin also felt confused, thinking that the matter had been calmed down. Who knew that such an accident would happen.
Now, everyone stepped into the fire pit.
The snow didn't stop. Three police cars left the city and soon arrived at the place.
In front of you is a three-story building. The police in the jurisdiction have set up a cordon in front of the yard. The villagers watching the excitement stand outside and point at the door.
Chen Hao and Kang Bolin got out of the car, and the police station director and some villagers hurried forward.
"Team Chen..." The director didn't know Kang Bolin and didn't know how to speak.
Chen Hao introduced: "This is the deputy chief of the criminal police detachment who has just arrived. Just call him Captain Kang."
The director immediately said: "Hello, Captain Kang. This is the situation. Yes, the body was found by a villager in the village. He had made an appointment yesterday to go to the city with Yao Jun this morning. He called outside the door for a long time, but no one responded. He ran up and knocked on the door. But they found that the door was open. After entering, they found that Yao Jun's family had been killed..."
Hearing this, an old man next to the director couldn't help nodding, his face turned pale: "I They were all frightened at the time. Yao Jun’s daughter, Yao Chungang, had just been detained because of her jewelry store, but she came out alive. Who knew that something like this would happen to their family soon?”
The people around him were sighing. Everyone had read the news. Linjiang City had been in a state of turmoil these past few days, and people were in panic. Every citizen had a stone weighing on his heart.
The old man couldn't help but said: "Could it be the gang of robbers who did it? Didn't the chief of the police station say that there is a bastard hiding behind the scenes who hasn't been caught yet! Hey, what if we continue? If this continues, it will be really unsafe for us in Linjiang City. My relatives open a canteen in the city. They have closed their shop early these days, so I am afraid. What accident happened?"
The director immediately scolded him: "Don't talk nonsense, our police are not just for free. Have you not seen the news on TV? Director Hu Changyu risked his life and negotiated with the robbers. Well, with him here, our Linjiang City is very safe!”
Hearing these words, Chen Hao felt very uncomfortable.
Currently, the case was urgent and he couldn't help his wild thoughts. He and Kang Bolin hurried to the door.
Forensic doctors and technical detectives have already gone in and are busy.
I saw that the sofa and the surrounding floor on the first floor were covered in coagulated blood. The body of a middle-aged man was lying next to the coffee table with two holes in his neck.
Judging from his age, there is no doubt that he is the male owner of this family, Yao Jun.
He should have been subdued by the gangster on the spot, and then pierced the artery in his neck with a dagger, otherwise the bleeding would not have been so heavy.
Chen Hao and Kang Bolin followed the stairs to the second floor.
There are three rooms on the second floor. One of the deceased, a middle-aged woman, died beside the bed in the bedroom. Her heart was stabbed and she was wearing pajamas before she died.
The place where he was killed was probably on the bed, probably because he rolled out of bed after being attacked.
The situation in the other bedroom was terrible.
A young woman was stripped of her clothes and lay naked on the bed.
Her hair was messy, the corners of her mouth were full of blood, and her head was turned toward the window. The window was not open, but snowflakes were falling outside.
There was a dagger stuck in her chest, with the blade almost completely pierced, leaving only the handle exposed.
Chen Hao has seen her photo before. This woman is Yao Chun, a female employee who almost died in the jewelry store because Luo Rui and the gangsters dealt with her and escaped. I thought she survived the catastrophe, but I didn't expect that just one day later, she was brutally murdered, and she was a member of a family of three.
The forensic doctor saw Chen Hao, stepped forward and said: "The deaths of this family were all caused by sharp weapons, and the knives were fatal. The girl was sexually assaulted before her death, but The murderer should have left no bodily fluids. I will report the details to you then."
Chen Hao nodded, and just as he was about to say something, he heard a police officer calling him.
He and Combinlin turned their heads and saw two police officers running upstairs in a panic.
Chen Hao's right eyelid started to twitch again: "What's wrong?"
"Team Chen, we found the bureau's car, and..."
Chen Hao squinted his eyes, trying to stop his eyelids from beating.
Kang Bolin immediately asked: "What's going on? You should tell me."
The police officer swallowed his saliva and replied: "There are also the bodies of Brother Li and Uncle Jiang!"
The atmosphere at the scene immediately froze, and even the busy technical investigation police officers stopped. work inside.
Chen Hao's eyelids stopped beating, but his heart was beating wildly.
“Where are they?”
“On the way here, there is a forest below, and their car is in the forest!”
"Take me there immediately!"
The police officers who heard this, except for those from the Technical Investigation Division, all rushed out of the house, got into their cars, and rushed to the scene of the crime.
Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei are the oldest criminal police officers. They have worked in Linjiang City for many years, and everyone knows them.
Suddenly hearing the bad news, everyone felt a heavy weight in their hearts.
A group of people got into a police car and rushed to the scene of the crime.
After getting out of the car, they saw a police car parked in the woods.
The car doors were closed, and there were two bodies in the back seat.
The forensic doctor quickly conducted a preliminary investigation and found that Li Xueming was killed by a gun and shot in the head, while Jiang Dawei was stabbed in the throat with a sharp blade!
Seeing such a tragic situation, Chen Hao sat down in the snow, his eyes dull.
In all the years he has been a police officer, he has never panicked no matter how big a case he encountered, but what happened in the past two days and one night has brought his spirit to the brink of collapse.
The torn cigarette pack in his pocket had not yet been smoked.
Kang Bolin knew that the matter was getting serious and quickly informed Wan Mingxia.
Two hours later, Wan Mingxia arrived. After getting off the car, she looked pale when she saw the body placed on the white cloth.
She just took office today, and things like this happened one after another. She really felt that she couldn't handle it anymore.
She had just reported the situation to the provincial department. If she called again and mentioned the matter, you can imagine what kind of reprimand she would receive.
She walked to Chen Hao and asked hurriedly: "Did X do it?"
Chen Hao raised his eyes and looked at her: "I don't know."
Wan Mingxia was anxious: "Why don't you know? Aren't you investigating X? And the criminal team leader named Luo Rui, didn't he come with them to investigate? Where is he now?"
Chen Hao shook his head, not wanting to answer.
Wan Mingxia sighed: "Chen Hao, are you hiding something else from us?"
Chen Hao's mind is very confused right now, with so many things going on but he can't figure out any clue.
He watched numbly as the bodies of Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei were carried into the car, and then he himself was dragged by Kang Bolin and got into the police car.
After returning to the police station, Chen Hao locked himself in the office and refused to let anyone in.
On his desk were the tea leaves given to Luo Rui by Hu Changyu. He kept staring at the tea box as if he was stupid.
During this period, Yang Xiaorui and Kang Bolin knocked on the door several times, but he ignored them.
When the sky outside turned dark, Wan Mingxia asked someone to open the lock and walked in with Kang Bolin.
"Chen Hao, let me inform you now that you have been too exhausted from work recently and your body can't stand it anymore. It's best for you to take a week off first. You can go home and have a good sleep now. The matter is temporarily handed over to Captain Kang."
Chen Hao looked at Kang Bolin, but the latter immediately looked away.
He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but Wan Mingxia said again: "Go back, have a good rest, stay with your wife and children, and come back to work after you have had enough rest."
Chen Hao stood up and staggered out of the office without speaking.
He really needed to take a good rest, get some sleep, and then think about what was happening now.
But as soon as he reached the case handling hall, he saw Yang Xiaorui and Wu Lei running towards him.
Wu Lei immediately pulled him to a deserted corner and said in a panic: "Master, the three members of Yao Chun's family were killed, as well as the murders of Lao Li and Lao Jiang. The murderer may be Luo Rui !”
Chen Hao’s expression froze.
Wu Lei continued: "The dagger left at the scene, in addition to killing Yao Chun's family, was also the same dagger that killed Uncle Jiang. The fingerprints on the murder weapon were Luo Rui's! Now, Wan Mingxia She suspects Luo Rui is the murderer, and she also thinks Luo Rui is X!”
Hearing these words, Chen Hao was suddenly filled with power: "Luo Rui is >After speaking, Chen Hao turned and walked into the director's office. As he walked, he took out the cigarette case in his pocket. He pulled one out, lit it with a lighter, and took a deep breath.
Qing Gui smoked a cigarette and pushed open the door of Wan Mingxia's office.
……
The boat kept moving forward without stopping along the way.
Luo Rui estimated that the place where he would board the boat should be at Linjiang Pier. This river flows towards Guangxing City and merges into the sea from the north of the city.
Half a day has passed since he was caught, and Luo Rui's mind is getting clearer and clearer.
The methods of this group of gangsters are very professional, and they are not comparable to ordinary gangsters. From their treatment of Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei, it can be seen that they don't care about killing people at all. Maybe they do such things often.
Moreover, this group of people is relatively organized. No one spoke a word along the way and remained silent. This is not in line with the nature of a general gangster society.
Luo Rui thought about it and didn’t know who they could be.
But no matter who doesn't kill himself immediately, there is still a chance.
He tried to break free from the rope tied around his wrists, but the more he struggled, the tighter the rope became.
This group of people seems to be very professional, and they are so good at kidnapping people.
He suddenly thought of something Yuan Shi once said. He said that he had been running boats with his father since he was a child, and tied crabs for fun when he had nothing to do.
Are these people fishermen?
It's not that he hasn't thought about whether Yuan Biao would do something to him, but he couldn't find a reason why the other party would do it to him.
What's more, Yuan Biao is a businessman, so he shouldn't be so bold as to kill Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei.
While he was thinking wildly, he heard the door being pushed open and the sound of footsteps ringing in his ears.
Then, the hood on his head was taken off.
The light was suddenly dazzling. Luo Rui blinked quickly. After adapting to the light, he saw a tall and thick man standing in front of him.
Then, a few more people came in, led by the scarred man from before.
The scarred man looked at him with a smile: "Luo Rui, guess where we are now?"
Luo Rui grinned and said with a smile: "It can't be on the high seas. Right?”
The scarred man shrugged. : "Is it so easy for the customs? I'm not afraid to tell you that we are now in Guangxing City, and someone is paying to buy your head, so don't blame us."
"Buy my head? Then you don't Kill me?”
"Of course it's easy to kill you, but if we catch you alive, the price can be higher. Doesn't it just prove our ability?"
Luo Rui looked at the people around him, and the expressions on everyone's faces were Their expressions were serious and unsmiling, but their temperament was indeed different from that of ordinary gangsters who committed kidnapping and murder.
Scarred Man said: "Don't look at it, we brothers are not working in China, we came back because of you."
Luo Rui smiled: "I still have this Big face? I don’t know who paid for it? How much am I worth?”
"Don't ask anymore! I'm here mainly to tell you about your current situation. After all, I've heard a lot about what you did before. You've cracked many major cases. You're considered an opponent. You're going to die soon. , you must also know about us before you die.”
"Oh, you still want me to know about you before I die? Who are you? So powerful?"
The scarred man straightened the collar of his suit: "Our hometown is in the north, but in order to survive, young people Everyone will cross that river... Do you know?"
Luo Rui understood: " I understand."
Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Can I ask who they are?"
Scarred Man: "There are rules in the industry, and we have to be right. The identity of the employer is kept secret, right? You’ll know it soon.”
After he finished speaking, he looked at a short man and said something in stick language.
The short man nodded, and then after the scarred man and others left, he closed the door.
Then, the short man took a meat bone from nowhere.
He sat in a chair, crossed his legs, and started chewing.
Luo Rui now understands the reason why they rarely spoke along the way, because this group of people's Mandarin is very poor, but Bangzi's language is very fluent.
He looked at the short man nibbling the delicious food and began to feel hungry.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and suppressed his hunger.
The short man was munching on his own meat without even looking at him.
Luo Rui said: "Hey, I want to ask you something."
The short man's eyes turned to him: "Xiba!"
This was a curse word that Luo Rui often heard in TV dramas in his previous life. He didn't take it seriously and continued: "How much is my life worth?"
"Xiba Nongma!" The short man cursed again. In one sentence, he stretched out his legs and raised his bone stick to hit him.
Luo Rui did not dodge, and quickly said: "I have fifty million! Do you want it?"
The short man's hand froze, and he looked at Luo Rui doubtfully.
Luo Rui didn't know the language, so he had to continue speaking in Chinese: "I have a bank card with 50 million in it!"
The short man heard it clearly now. He dropped the bone on the ground and stood up.
"You...wait, I'll call..."
Luo Rui heard him speaking in impure Chinese and walked out the door.
Luo Rui immediately said: "Don't you want to tell others? Aren't you all here for money? Fifty million can keep you fed and clothed for the rest of your life! Whether it's at home or at Bangzi, You can live a very nourishing life, those awesome female stars can do whatever they want, you know, it’s very enjoyable, ten times more enjoyable than chewing meat and bones!”
Hearing this, the short man was moved.
He hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked towards Luo Rui.
Luo Rui's nerves were tense. He squatted on the ground, as if he was about to jump.
"The bank card is in my hip pocket. Come and get it yourself, but you have to bring me some food later."
The short man didn't answer, but stretched out his hand... …
At this moment, Luo Rui put his hands under his buttocks, jumped on his feet, and kicked forward hard.
The hands that were originally tied behind his back were immediately moved to the front.
At the same time, the short man was kicked in the head and sat down on the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately shouted and a string of words of unknown meaning came out of his mouth.
It was too late, Luo Rui couldn't care about anything else. He picked up the stick bone on the ground, held it tightly with both hands, and immediately walked away.
He aimed accurately, and when the short man wanted to shout a second time, he hit him in the mouth.
The short man grunted, and before he could cry out in pain, blows rained down on his head.
Once, twice...
"I'll let you Xiba, I'll let you curse!"
The short man's entire head was bloody and unsightly.
The bone stick should be a dog's hind leg. It was very hard and slippery in his hand. Luo Rui smashed it a dozen times and the bone stick slipped out of his hand.
He didn't dare to delay any longer, so he grabbed the time and took out a dagger from the short man's body.
He put the handle of the dagger into his mouth, lowered his head, and kept cutting the rope around his wrist with the blade while looking at the door warily.
Fortunately, the short man was killed in time, otherwise, Luo Rui would have faced a group of gangsters.
Time passed slowly, Luo Rui was sweating profusely, the saliva in his mouth kept dripping down the corners of his mouth, and the corners of his mouth also hurt badly.
But he didn't dare to stop. After finally cutting the rope, he immediately ran to the door and looked out through the window on the door.
Fortunately, the short man's voice didn't attract anyone.
Luo Rui returned to the house, picked up the bone stick, and then ran to the door.
But at this time, he saw a foam box placed in the corner behind the door, and there was a fire ax in the box.
He threw away the bone stick and bent down to lift the axe.
Looking out the door again, he saw two men in suits walking towards here.
Luo Rui hid behind the door, his legs spread, and his hands holding the long handle of the ax tightly.
Taking two deep breaths, he saw a hand pushing the door open.
The ax fell immediately...
