After the police on duty arrived, Chen s.h.i.+ and Lin Dongxue drove back home. Lin Dongxue was so tired that she yawned and said with tears in her eyes, “Before sunrise, I was wondering if I wanted to eat beef noodles in the morning, but now I have no appet.i.te. I just want to take a nap. Sure enough, as old people say, 'It's better to just sleep than to eat a pig overnight'.”
“I actually want to eat beef noodles now that you've mentioned it.”
“No, no, I don't want to go anywhere. I just want to go home and go to bed. I don't want to eat anything right now...” Lin Dongxue's phone rang, and her expression changed dramatically after answering. “What?!”
“What happened?”
“Sun Shu has been poisoned and is now being sent to the hospital...”
Chen s.h.i.+ immediately turned a corner and was about to drive towards the hospital to see Sun when an oncoming truck suddenly rushed into their lane of traffic towards them. A pale youth sat in the driver's seat, grinning.
Chen s.h.i.+ automatically swerved the car to the left, and suddenly remembered that Lin Dongxue was sitting on the pa.s.senger seat, so he tried to swerve right. However, it was too late; the truck crashed into Chen s.h.i.+'s car. The huge impact caused the winds.h.i.+eld to shatter and their heads were met by the ejected airbags.
The car drifted until it hit the railings on the side and stopped. Chen s.h.i.+ felt like a group of bees were flying around in his head, humming. He raised his bleeding forehead and saw that Lin Dongxue's face was buried in the airbag, unconscious.
“Dongxue! Dongxue!”
Chen s.h.i.+ tried to wake her as he checked her pulse. Lin Dongxue had just pa.s.sed out and her pulse was normal.
The truck was left horizontal to the lanes, causing traffic to be completely blocked. w.a.n.g Sunxu jumped out of the truck, playing with a b.u.t.terfly knife in his hand as he walked towards them.
Sure enough, his last goal is myself!
Chen s.h.i.+ gritted his teeth, pulled out the pistol from Lin Dongxue's waist, took out the handcuffs, and opened the deformed door with a kick. He rushed out, pointing his gun at w.a.n.g Sunxu.
w.a.n.g Sunxu didn't expect Chen s.h.i.+ to point a gun at him and was slightly startled. He raised his hands but still had a smile on his face.
“Do you even dare to shoot? Officer Song!”
Chen s.h.i.+'s hands were shaking, and he couldn't point the gun's muzzle at the target properly. What happened three years ago had caused lingering psychological trauma.
Aware of this, w.a.n.g Sunxu stepped forward and Chen s.h.i.+ made a determined decision; he shot all the bullets towards the heavens at once, the sound of the gunfire rang out as far as a few kilometers away. Then he threw away the gun and clenched both his fists tightly as he got into a fighting stance.
“You got guts!”
w.a.n.g Sunxu ran over while holding the b.u.t.terfly knife back-handed, jumped up and aimed for Chen s.h.i.+'s chest. Chen s.h.i.+'s full attention was on w.a.n.g Sunxu's hand that was holding the knife. He grabbed the wrist with his right hand and punched w.a.n.g Sunxu's chest with his left fist.
w.a.n.g Sunxu cut the back of Chen s.h.i.+'s hand with the knife and pulled back to continue playing with the knife, forcing Chen s.h.i.+ back.
When he saw a chance, Chen s.h.i.+ swept w.a.n.g Sunxu to the ground with his foot, but he didn't expect that w.a.n.g Sunxu would use this to his advantage and stab Chen s.h.i.+'s leg with the knife. In pain, Chen s.h.i.+ kicked him over two meters away.
w.a.n.g Sunxu stood up covering his chest, took out a second b.u.t.terfly knife from his left pocket, and manipulated the two knives around in his hands.
Fighting blades empty-handed is itself a very difficult matter. Chen s.h.i.+'s skill was better than the average police officer, but he was not as good as the armed police. He thought in his mind that defeating w.a.n.g Sunxu was unrealistic. To survive would be victory.
I have to stall for time!
He asked, “How did you poison him? We checked everything that he ate and drank, so how did you do it?”
Criminals like showing off, and w.a.n.g Sunxu was no exception. He laughed, “I put it in his medicine.”
“I checked the medicine myself.”
