Chapter Thirty: Pursuit and Slaughter (Seven)

  The policeman was startled by Sun Heng and instinctively wanted to retreat. As soon as Sun Heng moved, he quickly grabbed the policeman's neck with his hand.

  Sun Heng's low voice asked: "Tell me, are you here to monitor us?"

  The policeman nodded reluctantly, having already been pinched by Sun Heng and unable to speak.

  Sun Heng's face changed again, as black as ink, and he said coldly: "Is it your director who let you come to monitor us?"

  The police officer's face turned red, but he couldn't say a word. Sun Heng relaxed a bit and said, "Yes, the director told me to keep an eye on you and not let you leave here..."

  I asked forward: "Is the phone call from your director being monitored? Is the person answering the phone also one of yours, right?"

  The police officer wanted to remain silent, but Sun Heng just gave him a cold glance. He hastily said: "The one who answered the phone is our person, the director said you are the **** of the Wanlong Society, and asked us to stabilize you until the special police arrive to capture you."

  Sun Heng didn't ask any more questions, he waved his hand and slapped the people's policeman on the back of the head, knocking him unconscious.

  I reached into the pocket of this people's policeman and pulled out a police handgun, also taking a police ID card. I then quickly changed into the people's policeman uniform and walked out of the conference room in large strides.

  The meeting room was not monitored, so some of our actions were not discovered. I came out of the meeting room and turned a corner to see another police officer standing there with a tense face. I lowered my hat and made a gesture towards that police officer, then retreated back to stand outside the meeting room.

  The policeman immediately came over and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

  I also lowered my voice and said: "They want to see the director, you go in and tell them that the director is in a meeting, he will be here soon..."

  The policeman surprisingly didn't suspect me, and before I could finish speaking, he had already walked into the conference room.

  Sun Heng had been waiting at the door of the conference room. Before the police officer could even call out, Sun Heng knocked him unconscious.

  Xiao Hei and I both put on police uniforms, we both had police pistols and some magazines, plus the military pistol that Xiao Hei had before, we were also armed.

  We then gave our original clothes to two police officers and had them lie down on the conference table in the meeting room, before we left.

  Sun Heng and I walked out of the Public Security Bureau with a swagger, and along the way we also met many police officers in a hurry, but surprisingly no one found out that we were impostors. When we got on the car and left the Public Security Bureau smoothly, Sun Heng said with a gloomy face: "The power of Wanlong Society is really great, even here in the Public Security Bureau there are their people... If it weren't for your cleverness this time, we would have been finished."

  I smiled: "I just suddenly became a bit more meticulous, and found some abnormal things. If they were a little more careful, and did it a bit more true to life, I would have had a hard time finding the flaws."

  Sun Heng suddenly thought of Dongfang Yu and others, and cried out in a loud voice: "It's bad, Uncle Dongfang and the others, this time we're going to implicate them!"

  I quickly fished out Sun Heng's mobile phone from his pocket and dialed Dongfang Yu's number. However, the call didn't go through as there was no signal where Dongfang Yu lived.

  Sun Heng furrowed his brow and said, "It seems we can only rush to rescue them. The police here left before us and must have arrived ahead of us. Hopefully, we won't be too late when we get there."

  I was so anxious that I became disoriented and had to rely on Sun Heng, hastily rushing towards the East Jade's home.

  Sun Heng drove the car extremely fast this time, he was really anxious and didn't care about the danger, stepping on the accelerator of the Jeep to the bottom.

  Actually, my parents are also in the county government, but Sun Heng and I couldn't rescue them, so we can only rescue Dongfang Yong's family first.

  Sun Heng was anxious at this time, but he was still quite calm. As he drove, he said to me: "What exactly did you take from the Wanlong Society? Why are they so determined to kill you?"

  "I wondered, 'Isn't it said that they think I'm a spy sent by you, colluding with you both inside and out... No, it's an internal and external attack, causing them heavy losses, so they want to spend a lot of money to kill me? I haven't taken anything from them!' As I spoke, I suddenly thought of the mysterious disappearance of Li Huanhuan. Is it possible that Li Huanhuan took away something important from the Wanlong Society, making them mistakenly think it was me who took it, and that's why they're pursuing me so fiercely?"

  But I didn't say my guess out loud, after all it was just my speculation, without evidence.

  To put it the other way around, even if Li Huanhuan took away something important from the Wanlong Association and they mistakenly blamed me for it, there's no need to hunt me down like this, right? Unless... that thing is so important that it could destroy the Wanlong Association overnight.

  Sun Heng saw me deep in thought and didn't say a word, focusing on driving. The journey that was supposed to take four or five hours was completed by him in just three hours.

  No matter what kind of car it was, as long as it could be overtaken, he overtook one by one. This also caused some traffic police patrolling on the highway to chase us all the way. But under Sun Heng's driving skills, those traffic police were shaken off.

  When we came back to Mr. Chen's house again, Mr. Chen was quite surprised. I quickly explained: "We forgot something at Uncle Dongfang's house and came back to get it."

  Uncle Chen said loudly: "Don't worry, park your car here and I'll take care of it for you."

  In my thanks, Sun Heng jumped off the car and took a close look at the highway, saying in a low voice: "You go pick them up quickly, the Public Security Bureau's car hasn't arrived yet, we're running ahead of them."

  I rode my motorcycle to Dongfang Shu's house once again, while Sun Heng stayed at Chen Da Shu's place waiting for us. He said he would stay behind as a lookout, so that we wouldn't be blocked by the public security bureau on our way down the mountain.

  When Dongfang Yu saw me again, she also had a strange face. She didn't ask me much, but whispered: "Was it discovered?"

  I nodded: "Hurry up and follow me, there are some police here who are also members of the Wanlong Association, they're about to rush over and catch you, hurry up and follow me."

  "Dongfang Yu's face was tense: 'Where are my parents? They're still on the mountain cutting trees, if we walk together, how can this car fit us all in?' "

  I anxiously spun around, about to drag Dongfang Yu down the mountain with me, and then come back for Dongfang Shu and Guo Si. Dongfang Yu suddenly shook off my hand with force, turned around and ran up the mountain towards her home, shouting as she ran: "Wait for me, I'll be right back!"

  I knew she was going to discuss with her parents, but time didn't allow her to do so. I could only shout loudly: "If they have a place to go, tell them to leave first and hide for a while..."

  Dongfang Yu responded with a distant "Okay!" and quickly ran out of sight.

  I waited for about five minutes at her rice field, and then I saw Dongfang Yufei running down like a flying fairy. I didn't have time to ask more questions, just said "everything is clear" and hastily drove the car down the mountain.

  Dongfang Yu reached out and hugged me, saying: "My parents have gone to a relative's house now. I...I originally wanted to go too, but I was afraid you would wait for me and not leave, so..."

  I didn't have time to listen carefully to the meaning of her words, and loudly said: "As long as it's safe, Sun Heng is waiting for us at Uncle Chen's place, sit tight, we need to speed up and meet with Sun Heng!"

  Dongfang Yu heard this and hastily hugged me tightly, afraid that the speed of the car would be too fast and she would fall off.

  In my haste, I didn't think it through, the motorcycle that can only take one person down the mountain at a time, there's no way to bring Dongfang Shu and his family of three down together, so they had to go to their relatives' house to hide first.

  I brought Dongfang Yu to Uncle Chen's house when Sun Heng was checking the car condition. We rushed back and he drove too fast, this old car couldn't take it and had some problems.

  Dongfang Yu and Sun Heng greeted each other, we didn't dare stay for long, after thanking Uncle Chen, we set off again.

  After our car had gone about ten kilometers, I suddenly remembered that there was a fork in the road not far ahead, so I asked Sun Heng to drive the car onto the fork and said to him: "We'll wait for the police coming from the opposite direction at the fork and borrow their car."

  Sun Heng nodded and said with a double meaning: "Police cars are originally for serving the people, so it's quite suitable for us to borrow one."

  I laughed, turned around and said to Dongfang Yu sitting next to me: "Sister, don't get off the bus in a while. Watch me and Sun Heng deal with the **** of Wàn Lóng Huì together. They've infiltrated the police and harmed our ordinary people. Let's see how we'll clean them up this time."

  Dongfang Yu's face was a bit off, her cheeks flushed as she nodded slightly, but surprisingly didn't say anything.

  I found it a bit strange, but then I thought of the reason: because we had removed all the back seats of the Jeep, leaving only the two front seats, so Dongfang Yu could only squeeze into one seat with me, she was almost in my arms, and felt a little shy.

  Less than ten minutes after Sun Heng drove the car onto the fork in the road, a police car came speeding over. Myself and Sun Heng were already standing on either side of the highway, with our hands behind our backs holding police-issue revolvers.

  This left-handed revolver is now rarely used by police forces, but it also has its advantages. Some remote public security bureaus are still using it as a sidearm.

  The police car was speeding very fast, especially on this mountain road. When my friend Sun Heng and I saw the police car less than 50 meters away from us, we both stood up and waved our hands at it simultaneously.

  The police car stopped cooperatively, and a policeman got out of the car and asked, "What's going on? Which police station are you from?"

  I smiled and said: "We are..." My words were not meant for him to hear, I deliberately stopped here, and the gun in my hand suddenly pointed at his chest.

  At this time, Sun Heng had already jumped onto the police car. The gun in his hand was aimed at several policemen who were still in the car, preventing them from pulling out their guns to resist.

  I knocked out the police officer in front of me with one slap, got on the car and cooperated with Sun Heng to search all the weapons from the police officers' bodies and put them into my own hands.

  This time, there were four police officers who came over. Except for the one I knocked out, the other three police officers were all disarmed by me and Sun Heng.

  We took these several militiamen to one side, and Sun Heng interrogated them one by one. Then we used the handcuffs they brought with them to cuff them all together, stuffed their mouths shut, and drove them onto our jeep. Sun Heng drove them to a very secluded place and hid them there. I also helped use police daggers to cut down many branches of evergreen trees, covering up the jeep so it wouldn't be easily discovered by others.

  After doing everything, I handed the police uniform that had just been taken off from a policeman to Dongfang Yu who was standing by the police car waiting for us. I whispered: "Wear it outside, if you meet another policeman later, don't speak, everything will be handled by me and Sun Heng."

  Dongfang Yu nodded, this time she took the initiative to sit in the back of the police car and quickly put on the police uniform. Her height was considered very high among women, wearing a police uniform gave her a different flavor, as if she were a real policewoman, heroic and refreshing.

  Sun Heng was driving away in a hurry, looking very tense all the way. After all, she was a military personnel and had never done anything like this before, such as robbery and looting. This time, being forced to do so with me, he still felt quite uncomfortable.

  I don't have so many concerns, let's not talk about the fact that there are people from the Wanlong Association among these police officers. Just because they came to arrest innocent ordinary civilians, in my opinion, I can give them a hard time.

  We didn't kill them because we were concerned that not all of them were members of the Wanlong Society, and it would be bad to harm innocent people. But they actually came to arrest ordinary citizens like Dongfang Shu, which is really infuriating, and it's hard not to want to punish them a little.

  We now have a new car and enough weapons - six police handguns and some daggers, plus Sun Heng's military handgun, it can be said that the materials are sufficient, and we can make a big move.

  I also searched some money from the pockets of those police officers, although not much, but enough for us to refuel and eat.

  Dongfang Yu hasn't spoken since she sat in the back of the police car, I saw from the rearview mirror that she was very tense and uneasy, afraid to the point of trembling.

  Sun Heng also noticed this, and gave me a look, hinting that I should go to the back to comfort Dongfang Yu. My original intention was not to go, but since I couldn't drive, Sun Heng couldn't stop the car to comfort Dongfang Yu, so I had no choice but to go.

  So I climbed up and sat down behind her, smiling at Dongfang Yu and saying: "Yu'er little sister, don't be afraid, we are safe now."

  Dongfang Yumu nodded silently, without saying a word.

  I whispered anxiously: "Are you very scared?"

  Dongfang Yu finally turned his head and looked at me, saying in a low voice: "How dare you guys even rob the police?"

  I laughed: "You misunderstood, we didn't rob the police just now, but people wearing police skin and doing bad things. They are the people from Wanlonghui who came to catch you, mixed in with the police ****."

  Dongfang Yu was somewhat skeptical: "But there are four of them, can they all be...?"

  Her words were not unreasonable, but I couldn't admit it, so after thinking for a moment, I said: "You don't know, in the past, many people who wanted to kill us were mixed among the troops or police, we almost died at their hands several times, so we have to be more careful. Even if there are really good police among them who are not *****, we can't let them go easily. You've seen it, we didn't kill anyone, just to prevent them from killing us, and only tied them up out of necessity."

  Dongfang Yu stared at me blankly as I spoke, and only after I finished did she say: "You've changed, just this short period of time, you've matured so much..."

  I couldn't help but be stunned again, I really don't understand how girls think. She clearly said she was afraid, and I patiently explained it to her, but in the blink of an eye, she changed the subject, and now there's no sign that she's afraid of anything at all.

  Sun Heng was just focusing on driving, he had to observe the situation around him and didn't have time to listen to me and Dongfang Yu talking.

  I let out a quiet sigh and asked Dongfang Yu: "Are you going to follow us all the way, or get off at a relatively safe place?"

  "Dongfang Yu thought for a moment: 'I'll go with you guys, I'm a bit scared to get off alone in an unfamiliar place...'"

  I thought so too, it's not safe outside now, she's a girl alone in an unfamiliar place, it's indeed unsafe: "Then why don't you walk with us? But I have to explain, following us won't be very safe either, there are many people who want to kill me for the 5 million..."

  Sun Heng suddenly said in front: "There is a roadblock ahead, the police are checking cars, be careful, we're going to rush past!"

  I hadn't even had time to get ready when Sun Heng suddenly accelerated and rushed out.

  Under the inertia, I almost hit my head on the front seat. Dongfang Yu was about to hit her head on the front seat, scaring her into a loud scream. I quickly reached out and grabbed her, just in time before she crashed.

  Our police car directly smashed the temporary roadblock here and ran far away. Those policemen who wanted to stop us didn't react in time, we were already gone.

  Sun Heng's driving skills are really good, I sincerely admire him. For the next section of road, we were still relatively smooth, but half an hour later, there was a gradual sound of police sirens coming from behind us. It seemed that after our police car broke through, it was broadcast throughout the city, and many police cars that knew our license plate number started chasing us.

  Sun Heng then pushed the police car's speed to its limit, and the engine's sound was very piercing.

  Our car sped all the way, overtaking countless vehicles and shaking off batch after batch of police cars.

  I don't know when, but Dongfang Yu tightly grasped my hand. She was so nervous that her palms were sweating.

  I didn't know what to say at that moment, so I just let her rough hands, worn from doing heavy work, tightly grasp mine.

  Sun Heng slowed down only when he drove the car to the entrance of the highway, and after handing his military ID to the toll collector for a glance, he slowly passed through the toll booth.

  The roadblock at the toll station was not temporary, and once forced to rush through, it is likely that the tires would be punctured and unable to drive. So Sun Heng could only use his military ID to pass through this toll station.

  Once on the highway, Sun Heng's speed increased even more, and the scenery along the road became a bit blurry due to the strong wind.

  I felt Dongfang Yu become even more tense, so I stretched out my other hand and gently grasped the hand she was already holding mine with, saying in a soft voice: "Don't worry, if everything goes smoothly, when we arrive at the capital, that's when we'll get help and truly be safe. I just looked, from here to the capital, it's only 1,300 kilometers, at our current speed, we can arrive in about ten hours. Can you endure for ten more hours? Once we reach the capital, you'll be safe."

  Sun Heng said at this time: "You all take a rest first, if there's something I'll call you."

  I then said to Dongfang Yu: "Lie down and sleep for a while, with us here, there's nothing to worry about."

  Dongfang Yu looked at me, her expression gradually calming down. I heard her say: "I'm a bit worried about our parents, do you think they're safe now? Will those Wanlonghui people hurt them?"

  I sighed: "I hope they're okay. Now we can't rescue them, and all we can do is hope that heaven will bless them to be safe."

  Dongfang Yu's eyes turned red, and the tears she had been holding back for a long time rolled down quickly. She choked out: "If something happens to Mom and Dad, what will we do?"

  "I gritted my teeth: 'Then I'll join the army and definitely eliminate the Wanlong Society, to avenge our parents' death...'"

  Dongfang Yu nodded and said, "I would do the same. But I won't join the army, there are so many Wan Long Association members in the troops now... if we join, it's not possible to eliminate all of them..."

  I was taken aback by his words and didn't speak for a long time before saying, "That's true, the power of the Wanlong Society is too great, they have people in many governments, armies, and public security bureaus. Even if we join the army, it will be very difficult to take revenge..."

  Dongfang Yu fell silent for a moment before speaking again: "Then we can only accept our fate?"

  I feel so powerless: "I hope the government can really eliminate Wanlonghui completely, and then we will be able to live a stable life again."

  Eastern Jade let out a sigh: "A few days ago, when I heard you talk about your recent experiences, I just thought it was somewhat thrilling. Now that I'm deeply involved in it myself, I realize how frightening and dangerous it is... Ah, brother, I feel like there's no sense of safety at all now, as if we could be killed at any moment. My heart is so scared and helpless..."

  I knew it was a normal reaction, so I slightly increased the force on her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry too much, we'll be fine."

  Dongfang Yu nodded slowly, her face reflecting the worries in her heart.
