Chapter 194 - A Wonderful Evening (1/2)

Charlotte coldly snorted and refused to pay attention to Huo Yunqi. This fellow’s tone of calling her name was not right, so she didn’t want to be tricked again and again.

After the two of them finished their breakfast in the ambiguous room, Xia Luobing’s phone on the table rang relentlessly, causing Yunqi’s eyebrows to jump uncontrollably.

“What? Alright, I’ll be right there!” Xia Luobing said solemnly. He hung up the phone and looked at Yunqi Huo. “I want to go out and inform him to carry out a mission. You should rest in the hotel.”

The local police called her and found traces of the murderers last night. One of the criminals was injured in the arm and is now hiding in the house of a family in Village C. He also kidnapped children and old people. He hopes Xia Luobing can get there as soon as possible.

“I’ll drive you there.” Huo Yunqi had already picked up Xia Luobing’s coat and said as he walked, “You should calm down before we get to the bottom of this.”

On the day he arrived at Village C, the old man and the child in the courtyard were really strange, making it difficult for him not to be suspicious.

Xia Luobing knew that Huo Yunqi really cared about him. Could it be that she nodded obediently and said, “Don’t worry, I know.”

The two of them quickly arrived at the village. The local police had already pulled the entire village into a cordon. The armed police officers and soldiers and the local police guarded the village completely. Seeing Xia Luobing come over, the person in charge came forward to communicate with her about the situation today.

“Captain Xia, he is hiding in that courtyard. There are two people inside.” The fat policeman stared at his greasy face and said, “No one has come out since we entered this courtyard last night.”

The fat policeman was talking about the courtyard where they knocked on the door. He stood outside the police cordon and looked over. There were no traces of the children and old people in the courtyard. He thought that they had been kidnapped into the house.

“Alright, I understand.” Xia Luobing pinched her eyebrows. She raised her eyebrows and called in so many people to surround her. It would be strange if someone could come out!

Someone had already started shouting in the direction of the courtyard, but the courtyard was quiet as if there was no one. This stalemate lasted until the afternoon. The originally sunny sky suddenly darkened, and beansized raindrops crackled down, causing the wind to blow on his face.

“Not good, there’s a rainstorm!” Someone from the police shouted.

Xia Luobing’s body trembled. She already knew what the storm meant to the village, but didn’t the people here have weather forecasts that she couldn’t figure out? Why didn’t you evacuate all the people here in time?

“Everyone inside, listen up. The rainstorm is coming. You can only wait for death inside. Hurry up and come out.” Xia Luobing snatched the trumpet from a policeman and shouted at the courtyard. She felt a strong sense of unease in her heart.

This uneasiness was not only because there were hostages inside, but also because there was something she could not explain clearly.

Shortly after Xia Luobing’s voice landed, a few children walked out one after another. There were also two children supporting the white-haired old man. They followed suit and walked out.

However, the uneasiness in Xia Luobing’s heart did not lessen as she stared at the dilapidated courtyard. The uneasiness in her heart was like a demon gnawing at her heart.

“The people inside quickly come out!” Xia Luobing shouted anxiously, “Otherwise, we would have gone in.”

Her words were like a wisp of green smoke being blown away in the air, and the courtyard not far away was as silent as death.

“Hualala!”

The rainstorm finally rained down, and the rainwater didn’t let anyone off. Huo Yunqi took off his suit and leaned on Charlotte’s head, silently standing aside and not interrupting her work.

“Captain Xia, we must evacuate immediately. The Yellow River will soon overflow. We must immediately assist the others to evacuate.” The fat policeman looked at Xia Luobing anxiously, but the panic in his eyes told her clearly that he was simply scared.

Xia Luobing only came to help the local police solve the case and did not invoke their powers, so now she could only nod her head in indignation, “Alright.”

“Ice.” Huo Yunqi held onto Xia Luobing’s shoulder and saw that she was looking at the courtyard. She whispered, “Are you alright?”

Xia Luobing nodded silently. He grabbed Yunqi’s arm and looked up at him. “There must be someone in this village who hasn’t had time to evacuate. I need to go check it out before I can be at ease.”

She can’t just take people away like that fat cop, or she’ll have a bad conscience for the rest of her life.

“Alright, I’ll accompany you.”

Village C was said to be a village. At best, it could only be considered a relatively spacious street. The courtyard was scattered all over the place. Xia Luobing and Huo Yunqi hurriedly knocked on the door one by one.

Half an hour later, the water beneath her feet had already reached her knees. Charlotte wiped the water off her face and looked at Huo Yunqi, who was also wet, and shouted, “Go back quickly. I’ll go over after I finish looking at that courtyard!”

They’ve been running around for so long. Even if there really are murderers in that courtyard, they should still escape, right?

Charlotte ran in the direction of the courtyard. She pushed the door open to see what was going on, but the moment she stepped into the house, the house collapsed. Then the water spread out and the lightning cut the dark sky bright.

Hua Hua Hua! What a heavy rain!

A month later, Huo Yunqi opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Huo Yunxi’s red and swollen eyes and Ye Shaochen’s excited but trying hard to control his face.

“Where’s Bing Bing?”

That day, he was only one step slow and watched as Xia Luobing was smashed under the water. Then, the flood rushed over. He was going to swim to bring Xia Luobing out, but was hit by a piece of rushing wood on the back of his head. He fainted and woke up today.
