Chapter 7: Ambiguity Under the Gun
"Captain Gao, should we force our way through? If we don't take out some tough measures to strike down Zhao Tiezhu's arrogance, those student brats will look down on us police."
"Yes, Captain Gao, I really can't take it anymore. Even our colleagues have fallen into Zhao Tiezhu's hands. This is a bitter pill for me to swallow."
"Captain Gao, I'll take the lead. You know my marksmanship. I guarantee that as soon as we meet face to face, I'll take down Zhao Tiezhu with one shot."
"Captain..."
Several young detectives couldn't hold back their fierce temper and surrounded Gao Feng, one after another volunteering to take him on.
"Give me a break, don't even think about it. Zhao Tiezhu is holding a gun right now, can you guarantee that Bai Wuxiao and the hostages won't get hurt before we take him down?" Gao Feng cut off his subordinates' thoughts without hesitation, "Just got a call from upstairs, the bureau leader is on their way here, before they arrive, we must ensure that the situation doesn't escalate further."
"Are we just going to stand by and watch? Do nothing?" a detective protested.
Gao Feng glared at them, "What are you staring at? Let me tell you, at a time like this, doing nothing is better than doing something. All of you, stop wasting words and just do what you need to do."
In the classroom.
Zhao Tiezhu saw the police outside the window lose their momentum and couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Ahahahaha, that's satisfying."
After laughing, he turned his head to Qin Lang and said: "Little boy, the more I look at you, the more pleasing you are. Fortunately, you gave me a good idea, otherwise I would have shot this woman with one bullet just now, and now I can see these stinky police being humiliated."
Qin Lang furrowed his brow, not even bothering to listen to what Zhao Tiezhu was saying. His energy had already accumulated to around 40%, but the dizziness in his head was growing stronger and stronger, and the frequency of his convulsions was getting more and more frequent. If this continued, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on until the explosion, and would pass out first.
"If this situation continues, something big will happen. I have to think of a way to alleviate it."
Qin Lang didn't have the heart to think about the reason behind it, and while biting his tongue to stay awake, he was thinking of a solution.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on the bag of food that Bai Wuxia had brought up earlier, and he couldn't help but brighten up.
Food is the best way to maintain vitality and one of the sources of life energy. Although ordinary food can only convert a small amount of energy, it should be able to get through the current situation.
At this thought, Qin Lang's stomach seemed to respond, and it growled.
The voice was neither loud nor soft, but just right for Zhao Tiezhu to hear.
Zhao Tiezhu's eyebrows moved slightly, "Almost forgot, I still haven't eaten yet."
As he spoke, he looked at the white jade in his hand with some reluctance. Although beauty can be appreciated, it's not possible to fill one's stomach just by looking at a beautiful woman.
Zhao Tiezhu was crazy, but not stupid, and he could still tell right from wrong. With a push of his hand, Bai Wuxiao, who had difficulty walking, stumbled and fell in the direction of Qin Lang.
This time, Bai Wuxia remained very calm and didn't let out a scream.
Qin Lang originally wanted to make the woman suffer a bit, but he also felt that it wasn't worth arguing with such a woman, so he didn't ignore her. When Bai Wumo turned around, he reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist.
"Let me go."
Bai Wuxia hadn't even steadied herself before she began to struggle and try to break free from Qin Lang's embrace.
"Good!"
Qin Lang had originally reached out to help her out of kindness, but since this woman didn't know how to appreciate it, he didn't have any thoughts of cherishing or pitying her.
Bang!
Without Qin Lang's support, Bai Wuchang, who had not yet stood firm, immediately fell to the ground.
This magnitude of collision was nothing for Bai Wuxiao, who had been trained for a long time, but she secretly gritted her teeth in hatred towards Qin Lang's cold attitude.
"Qin Lang, I'll remember you. Just wait till I get through this ordeal, and you'll be the one who's left looking good." Having finally managed to steady herself on the ground, Bai Wuchuang seethed with anger in her heart.
"Hey kid, I think you're hungry too. Go get a box of food from that bag over there and eat it, help me test if these cops have poisoned it." Zhao Tiezhu gestured with his gun towards Qin Lang.
Upon hearing this, Qin Lang didn't hesitate for a moment. He rushed to the bag on the ground, pulled out a boxed lunch and opened it. Without even using chopsticks, he started devouring the food with his hands.
That appearance is simply like a starving ghost reincarnated.
"Hmph, eating so happily, aren't you afraid there's really poison in the food."
White Wu couldn't help but see Qin Lang's appearance and muttered to himself.
"What did you say?" Zhao Tiezhu's face changed instantly, and the muzzle of his gun immediately pointed at Bai Wuchuang.
Bai Wu Chuo immediately regretted it, but at this time, Tu Mou was thrilled to have gotten under Zhao Tiezhu's skin. Wasn't he playing with his own life?
"This big-breasted and brainless stupid woman." Qin Lang cursed silently, without saying another word, he walked up to Bai Wuxiao with his rice box, grabbed a rice ball and dipped it in the sauce, ignoring Bai Wuxiao's shocked gaze, forcibly stuffed it into her mouth, then closed her mouth and forced her to swallow.
When Qin Lang loosened his grip, Bai Wuchang, who had been choked, coughed until tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
"Hahaha……" Zhao Tiezhu burst out laughing, Qin Lang's approach not only dispelled the anger that had just risen in his heart but also made his suspicions disappear. He gave Qin Lang a thumbs up and said: "Good, good, you little kid did something that really suits my taste. Now everyone has eaten this food, if it's poisonous, we'll all be done for together."
Bai Wuxia, who had just caught her breath, didn't dare to speak nonsense again. She could only stare at Qin Lang with her big, teary eyes.
Qin Lang didn't have the time to bother with her, his mind was completely focused on the boxed meal in his hand. As for whether this boxed meal was poisonous or not, he wasn't worried at all. The identity of a top-tier alchemist wasn't something to be taken lightly, just by smelling the aroma, he could confirm that there was no problem with this boxed meal.
After a meal, Qin Lang's spirit was refreshed, and the dizziness in his mind also dissipated a lot, but there was still a feeling of hunger pangs in his stomach.
Qin Lang involuntarily cast his gaze towards the remaining boxed lunch in the bag, licked his lips and said to Zhao Tiezhu: "How about I help you try another one?"
Zhao Tiezhu had long been tempted by Qin Lang's wolfish appetite, and if not for some restraint, he would have pounced on the food and devoured it all.
Qin Lang still wanted to eat another serving, but he immediately refused with a single word, "You've eaten it all, what's left for me? Since you're done eating, go squat next to this cheap stuff and wait ten minutes, let me see if there's any slow-acting poison in the food."
Qin Lang was somewhat disappointed, but still squatted down beside Bai Wuchuang as promised.
As for Zhao Tiezhu's timidity, Qin Lang found it somewhat amusing. "This guy is really not ordinary in his fear of death! With such a small amount of courage, he dared to commit such a serious crime, and it's truly pitiful for him."
Qin Lang had no idea that this was precisely the proof that Zhao Tiezhu was a real mental patient, on the one hand, he was afraid of death, and on the other hand, he dared to be crazy and didn't care about his life.
Of course, if he hadn't been beaten by Qian Dabing and stimulated by Bai Wuchou, he wouldn't have gone mad.
As for now, Zhao Tiezhu is at a stalemate with the police, but what he wants to achieve is unclear, even to himself. He just instinctively feels that if he releases the hostages, he will be shot, and in order not to be shot, he must continue to hold them hostage and confront the police.
When is an end, for a mentally ill patient, it's obvious that they can't think so much.
Ten minutes can pass in the blink of an eye, but it can also feel like an eternity.
For Zhao Tiezhu, these ten minutes would obviously not pass too quickly. He first approached the window and observed the movements outside.
He saw the police outside the window staring blankly, not daring to make any unusual movements, and he felt more and more at ease.
When his gaze fell on Bai Wuchuang, Zhao Tiezhu's face showed a lustful expression again. "The women in this city are really something! Damn it, I've never had a woman from the city before. That bitch Mei Yuxuan didn't even let me touch her hand. If I could have a go with this female cop now, it would be enough to get me off!"
Thinking of this, Zhao Tiezhu felt that the little iron pillar in his crotch was hard like an iron pillar.
If it weren't for the intense hunger pangs in his stomach, he would have probably pounced on her immediately and thoroughly ravished this policewoman.
"No, no, those cops outside are sneaking around, I absolutely can't be distracted. If I do this woman and get shot by those cops outside, it's not worth it for me. Moreover, this woman just ate food, if there's poison in it, won't I also get poisoned if I get intimate with her?"
After weighing it in his heart, Zhao Tiezhu, who was afraid of death, gave up the idea of laying hands on Bai Wumo.
But his gaze never left Bai Wuxia's body, the undulating curves of which made him feel itchy in his heart.
Suddenly, a perverted idea surged into his mind, Zhao Tiezhu's eyes lit up, and he asked Qin Lang: "Young man, have you ever done it with a woman?"
Qin Lang was taken aback and didn't understand what the other party meant.
"Haha, looking at you like that, I can tell you're a rookie." Zhao Tiezhu grinned, showing off his yellow teeth. "You've been doing pretty well so far, and now the old man has decided to reward you, let you taste what it's like to be with a woman."
Upon hearing this, Qin Lang and Bai Wuchang's faces changed simultaneously.
Both of them realized what Zhao Tiezhu was up to.
"No!"
Bai Wuxia almost instinctively opened her mouth in a panic.
Although policewomen are tough roses, they are still women. When women face the most primitive violation, any calmness will disappear.
"The more you don't want it, the more I'll make you want it."
Zhao Tiezhu's face revealed a sickly smile, and he waved the muzzle of his gun at Qin Lang, saying: "You little brat, what are you still stunned for? Didn't you hear my words? Go, have fun with this woman, let me appreciate it. If you don't know how, I'll guide you."
Qin Lang's eyebrows twisted into two knots.
In his eyes, murderous intent floated.
For him, Zhao Tiezhu's proposal was not a blessing but an insult.
Although he was not good at flirting with women in his previous life, he didn't expect that after being reborn, he would sink to the point of being forced to be intimate with an unrelated woman under his eyelids.
This is an outright humiliation for him.
"What? Didn't you hear what I said?" Zhao Tiezhu's face fell as Qin Lang remained silent for half a day.
"I'm not interested in this woman." Qin Lang said calmly.
The first person to react to this was not Zhao Tiezhu, but rather Bai Wuchou.
A beautiful face as white as jade was suddenly covered with frost.
A woman's thoughts are just so strange, if you want to take action on her, she thinks you're a beast. But if you ignore her and show no interest in her, she'll think it's a great shame and that you're worse than a beast.
"No interest is good, haha, no interest is even more interesting. I like this kind of play, hurry up, I don't have the patience to wait for you." Zhao Tiezhu waved his gun and urged.
"Just bear it for a while longer, and when the time is right, I'll let you know the consequences of humiliating me. It's just one word: death."
Qin Lang forcibly suppressed the killing intent in his heart. His current strength had already accumulated to 50%, and at 80% he could barely burst out.
A small tolerance can ruin a great plan. With this in mind, Qin Lang reached out and wrapped his arms around Bai Wuchang beside him.
"Let me go, release your grip on me, let go of me quickly."
The white jade-like face suddenly became panicked and shouted out loud.
Such shouting stimulated Zhao Tiezhu's excited expression to the extreme, as if it was more thrilling than doing it himself. He also shouted: "Kiss her, you little rascal, hurry up and kiss her."
Qin Lang's gaze fell on Bai Wuxiao's tender lips, which were opening and closing constantly. Ignoring the violent struggles of the delicate body in his arms, he lowered his head and kissed her fiercely.
