Chapter 18

Amateur Culprits

Even though these culprits were ruthless, they were not good at shooting. After the three cops had been killed, they remained in the car to wait if they were more cops around, instead of controlling the scene.

Therefore, not only Pang Jing Dong and Jing Ling Ling had some time to chit-chat, but it also allowed Pang Jing Dong to realize these guys are not professionals.

Pang Jing Dong clearly understood it was inevitable for him to be dragged into the incident. These people dared to murder cops in public; surely, they would not allow anyone to walk away alive.

However, to rely on the now s.h.i.+vering Jing Ling Ling before him to resolve the danger was not an ideal strategy. The chance of that happening would be less than or equivalent to the chance of China winning the soccer's World Champion.

”Give me the gun!” Pang Jing Dong reached out his hand toward Jing Ling Ling and said in an unquestionable tone.

”No way! I'm a cop. My gun is more important than my life…”

Without waiting for Jing Ling Ling to finish talking, Pang Jing Dong grabbed the gun from her, at such a fast speed that Jing Ling Ling did not manage to see what just happened.

The noise they made had attracted the attention of the two men who got out from the Kamaz. They immediately pointed their gun at the direction of the noise after realizing there were survivors. Despite that, Pang Jing Dong acted way faster, before the two criminals had the chance to fire their guns, Pang Jing Dong had fired two shots which penetrated their heads.

”You…” Jing Ling Ling stared shockingly at Pang Jing Dong.

”These guys were ruthless, but from their behaviors, it seemed like they were not trained militarily!” said Pang Jing Dong calmly.

”You must come with me to the criminal police department!” said Jing Ling Ling as she was trying to stand up.

Pang Jing Dong immediately pulled her down, ”Don't move! There's more still!”

”Huh?”

”The gunshots from before were shot from two different directions by different weapons. I guess there's still a sniper nearby!”

”Where is he?”

Pang Jing Dong pointed toward the opposite direction of the prisoners' van.

Jing Ling Ling asked again, ”Be more precise!”

”I don't know yet! But I've got a plan!”

Pang Jing Dong looked at Jing Ling Ling, whose uniform was covered in dust, but she still looked heroic in it. It was more impressive that she was still wearing her police cap. Pang Jing Dong reached out his hand and take her cap while saying, ”Lend this to me for a while!”

”What are you trying to do?” asked Jing Ling Ling, who sort of had guessed what Pang Jing Dong's intention was.

Pang Jing Dong was thankful toward the culprits because they executed their ambush in an reconstructing area, which felt like he was on a real battlefield, allowing him to find what he needed easily. Pang Jing Dong picked up a piece of steel rod and hang Jing Ling Ling's cap on one side. He slowly poked the rod out from the edge of the van and kept on trying with different angles. Finally, as he was poking out the rod from the top, a gunshot was heard not far from them.

”Ahead on the left!” Pang Jing Dong told Jing Ling Ling after observing the bullet hole on the cap.

”Were you a soldier before?” Jing Ling Ling looked at Pang Jing Dong with a confused expression.

Pang Jing Dong did not answer the question, ”It was an old-fas.h.i.+oned trick, but still a useful one after all this time!”

”From my Intel, you had just returned from overseas. Were you a soldier when you were overseas?”

”The van's driver must be dead! He must be killed by the sniper just then!”

”Give me back the gun!” Jing Ling Ling reached out her hand toward Pang Jing Dong.

”How many cops were involved in this operation? Why aren't the cops in the van coming out?”

”I'm going to arrest you!” said Jing Ling Ling firmly.

Pang Jing Dong slapped Jing Ling Ling's hand away, and said with a disdained look, ”If you have investigated me before, you would know that I have no criminal record! I'm doing this to keep us all alive! If you are reliable, I won't be taking matters into my own hands!”
