Chapter Thirty-Three: Peril

  In a split second, Du Le used his shoulder to knock open the hijacker's hand holding the pistol. The pistol fell, and the hijacker's previous shot also went awry, hitting a white incandescent lamp outside the elevator.

  The police outside were frightened and hastily dodged, pulling out their guns and aiming at the elevator.

  Ah! Jiang Yun and the other two female suspects screamed as they ran out of the elevator. At the same time, the sound of gunfire startled several other police officers, and the three panicked female suspects caused even more chaos among the crowd outside the elevator.

  Another hijacker was also shocked and raised his pistol, continuing to fire at the police outside the elevator door.

  Bang!

  The police were shocked and didn't have time to counterattack, they fell to one side and dodged the bullet again.

  The bandit leader angrily pointed his pistol at Du Le, who had foiled their plan and was now to be shot dead in revenge.

  Du Le couldn't care about so much, after knocking open a hijacker, he turned around and grasped the muzzle of the handgun pointed at him with one hand.

  Something astonishing happened, in an instant, as if a supernatural event, the hijacker's pistol disappeared.

  The robber who fired a second shot at the police missed the police, didn't notice anything unusual about Du Le, and saw that his partner didn't react, so he closed the elevator door and turned the gun around.

  The robbers were stunned by the sudden disappearance of the handgun and did not stop Du Le, who took advantage of the opportunity to grab another robber pointing at him.

  Another handgun is missing.

  My god!

  The bandit was shocked to lose his pistol.

  Below was a gun, Du Le and three robbers stared at the pistol together, rushed over, four heads collided.

  The elevator doors closed automatically.

  "The target has been spotted, in elevator number one! Three robbers and one hostage are inside the elevator." The police officer outside the elevator door quickly reported the situation via radio.

  The police on each floor received orders and rushed to the elevator entrance.

  Inside the elevator

  Du Le successfully put all three handguns into the space.

  Three robbers pinned Du Le down and searched his entire body but couldn't find any trace of a handgun.

  Good grief! The three robbers were drenched in sweat.

  Du Le sneered, "You don't have guns, let's see what you can do."

  The hijacker pressed the button for B1 first. He was right, only B1 was not guarded by police.

  The furious robbers trampled Du Le several times, and he was in so much pain that he almost fainted.

  Du Le had only practiced the Changchun style for a few days and was just an ordinary person, so he couldn't possibly resist three robbers. Snatching the pistol was purely luck. Alright, Du Le didn't resist either, protecting his vital parts to fend them off. Anyway, as long as the elevator doors opened, the robbers wouldn't be able to escape.

  The hijackers apparently also realized this, they only brought guns, the guns were gone, and there wasn't even a knife on them, no time to specially go and call out to Du Le, they also couldn't confirm if it was Du Le who took their handguns. Seeing Du Le shrink into a corner of the elevator, without resistance, withdrew his fists and feet.

  Ding, the elevator door opened, and the three robbers had to leave immediately, they had to run.

  At this point, Du Le was unwilling to shrink into a corner. He had been beaten for so long and still wanted to run? Borrowing his remaining strength, he hugged one of the robbers' legs and refused to let go no matter how hard he was hit or pulled.

  Ten seconds later, the staircase on the minus one floor also transmitted a rapid footsteps sound.

  The other two robbers heard the sound and could only give up, rushing to the parking lot. At this time, it was impossible to talk about brotherly love between robbers.

  Five police officers rushed down and immediately spotted Du Le embracing the hijacker.

  "I've got him!" Du Le shouted.

  Two policemen rushed forward and grabbed the hijacker, pinning him down. Du Le was also dragged to the wall.

  "There are two more, they just ran away." Du Le quickly informed the police of the bandits' situation as soon as he came to his senses from the pain.

  Suddenly, the sound of a car engine came from the parking lot.

  It turned out that two escaped robbers forcibly smashed open the glass door of a car and started the engine, wanting to force their way out.

  Bang, bang...

  After two gunshots, the hijackers in the car were hit and eventually subdued.

  A few days later, Du Le lay on the sofa, watching news reports on TV.

  Four robbers robbed a bank, and were eventually stopped by the police with the assistance of the crowd. Four robbers, two dead, one seriously injured, one slightly injured. One member of the public was seriously injured, several people were slightly injured, no life-threatening injuries.

  Du Lecheng became a hero and won the Good Citizen Award, his video of fighting with thugs in an elevator and assisting police was exposed on TV.

  However, the video showed that the characters' movements were too big and the images were not clear. The process from when the robbers opened fire to when Du hid the gun was even more unclear due to the entanglement of actions, so the moment the gun disappeared was not clearly recorded. Afterwards, when seeing the police, Du also didn't dare take out the gun. Later, the unexpected death of the two robbers made the whereabouts of the three guns a mystery. The three handguns were lost in the building without any explanation, causing a stir in the entire police station.

  The only eyewitness was the bandit caught by Du Le, but his words were contradictory in the eyes of the police, and it was both a ghost and a heavenly retribution that the gun disappeared out of thin air. The police could not believe such testimony at all. Moreover, according to the subsequent police statement, there was no opportunity for Du Le to obtain the pistol either.

  The police questioned Du Le several times but to no avail and had to resort to a blanket search, scouring the entire underground parking lot, but still couldn't find the lost gun.

  This incident is a rare major case in Fuhai City, and the attention of citizens is very high. As a result, for several consecutive days afterwards, there were armed police patrols on various main streets in Fuhai City to comfort the people. For a time, the public security situation in Fuhai City was good, and even if there were people with criminal intentions, they had no way to take action for the time being.

  Fortunately, Du Le's injuries were mainly superficial wounds, and after resting, he was fine.

  The unluckiest one is Wu Liang, who was shot and will have to stay in hospital for a month or two.

  In the video, Du Le's face is not exposed, it should be edited by the police before being released. Du Le also did not tell his family members to avoid worrying them.

  In this incident, Du Le got several conclusions. The space capsule attached to the transmitter is undoubtedly powerful, and if used well, it is also a sharp tool for an empty-handed white blade. The three handguns in space are the best proof.

  While practicing Changchun Jue, Du Le received great help. During his hospital stay, he slowly experienced it. He reflected on that day, his hearing improved a lot, and his hands and feet became much more agile. Du Le suddenly thought, this is actually a kind of application of internal energy.

  At that time, Du Le's body had a natural reaction, and the effect of Qi was on his ears, greatly increasing his hearing. Later, in the fight in the elevator, when he was beaten by the robbers, the thread of Qi in his body protected his heart and blood vessels. After the robbers' chaotic beating, Du Le did not suffer too much internal injury.

  All this further solidified Du Le's determination to continue practicing Changchun Jue.

  When the crisis occurred, Du Le's perception of Qi was the greatest. Afterwards, Du Le continued to cultivate and his body absorbed Qi at a much faster speed. In a subtle way, there was a slight swelling sensation in his Dantian, which made Du Le feel extremely delighted.

  Jiang Yun was startled, but she was grateful to Du Le. After Du Le obtained the factory data that Jiang Yun had prepared early that day, he let Jiang Yun take a few days off with pay to relax.

  A few days later, Du Le was summoned to the police station again. At first, he was still nervous, but when he arrived, he found out that due to his heroic behavior, the mayor personally ordered a reward of 10,000 yuan to be given to Du Le, and also encouraged citizens to learn from this act of bravery.

  Great calamities befalling one will not result in death; there must be good fortune afterwards.

  After the storm has passed, life must go on.

  Apart from ensuring a steady supply of noodles and ham for Gold City's restaurants, Du began studying plans to acquire factories.
