Blazing Armour - Chapter 165

When he got on the bus, Ren Yu sat behind Baicheng.

Bai Chicheng glanced at Ren Yu. He looked thinner and haggard than last time. His eyes were black and could not see any emotion.

Ren Yi unconsciously leaned back. He was not afraid of this person, but disgusted. How to describe baichi city’s temperament? It was like a dead mud, trying to expand his field and drag in all the fresh things around him.

Qiu Yangang wanted to say something, but baichicheng spoke first. He said to Gong Yingxian, “Huang Yan let you go alone.”

Gong Yingxian said, “are you worried about him or yourself?”

Bai Chicheng said coldly, “I’m worried about you. If you die, I can’t live.”

“Do you think Huang Yan will kill you?” Qiu Yan asked.

Bai Chicheng didn’t answer this question. It was obviously acquiescence.

Qiu Yan asked another question: “are you afraid of death?”

“Is anyone afraid of death?” Bai Chicheng asked.

“I think you’re not afraid.” Qiu Yan stares coldly at the back of Baicheng’s head, “for a man who kills his wife and children, life is not worth mentioning for you. If you dare to do so many evils, you should not be afraid of death.”

“I’m not afraid of death, but I don’t want to die.”

Ren Ying snorted: “I thought you were very loyal to the God of light, but now you have betrayed the organization?”

“My loyalty to the God of light doesn’t mean I want to be loyal to the purple flame.” Bai Chicheng’s tone was full of sarcasm, “these are two things.”

Gong Yingxian glanced at baichi City obliquely: “yes, Ziyan is only the messenger of the God of light after all, but isn’t it the will of the God of light that Ziyan conveys?”

“At first I thought so, but then I found out that he was using us for personal gain at the same time.” The tone of Baicheng is getting colder and colder.

“What did he do?” Gong Yingxian asked, “is it related to my case?”

Bai Chicheng smiled low and said, “Dr. Gong, if you don’t agree to my conditions, don’t try to get words out of my mouth, or you want to try torture? Anyway, you are also a wanted criminal now.”

Gong Yingxian stepped on the accelerator and stopped in front of the red light. He slowly turned his face and stared at baichi city with cold eyes: “when I catch Huang Yan alive, I have some ways to let you speak.”

The malicious smile on Bai Chicheng’s face slowly disappeared.

“If you were me, what would you use to force a man to speak, but not to kill him?” Gong Yingxian gently lifted his lips and looked at baichi city like looking at a dying animal, cold and disdainful. “Don’t you want to compete with me? Let’s compete. Guess what I will use to make you miserable and suffer, but as long as I wash my stomach, I can still live semi disabled?”

“Ying Xian, stop talking.” Qiu Yanqing scolded. Although there was no one else here, she didn’t want to hear Gong Yingxian say something unlike a policeman.

Ren Xuan stared at Gong Yingxian’s face, which was particularly cold and gloomy by the dim backlight, and shuddered.

Bai Chicheng stared back at Gong Yingxian and said nothing, but his Adam’s apple slid gently.

The red light turned green. Gong Yingxian turned away and continued driving.

Ren Yi leans to the middle and peeks at Gong Yingxian in the rearview mirror. But when Gong Yingxian notices and turns his eyes to the rearview mirror, he immediately shrinks back.

Sometimes he thinks he knows Gong Yingxian very well, and sometimes he thinks he knows too little. This feeling has appeared again and again since they met. No matter how close they stick, it seems that part of the world of Gong Yingxian is deep enough for him to see.

After getting off the highway, Gong Yingxian stopped at the side of the road and turned to two people: “get off with me.”

It was nearly midnight, and it was so remote that it was hard to see other cars. It’s a good place to break the law and discipline.

Gong Yingxian opened the trunk with a backpack and a woven bag in it.

“Your gun has been taken away?” Gong Yingxian asked Qiu Yan.

Qiu Yan nodded sadly.

Gong Yingxian opened the woven bag and took out three flashlights: “I learned in the film before. It is filled with gunpowder and steel balls. The fuse is the switch of the flashlight. If you press the switch, it will become a weakened version of the shotgun. Of course, it will be used once.”

Ren Yu took the flashlight and was heavy. He was very angry at the thought that what he was holding was a modified heat weapon.

Gong Yingxian picked up another bulb. The inside of the bulb was hollowed out and filled with unknown chemical liquid. A cotton core stretched out from the tail of the bulb: “this is a simple grenade. Ignite it and throw it out in five seconds. Take more.”

Ren Yu looked at Gong Yingxian and took out a bag, which was filled with small transparent medicine bottles with light blue liquid, which was the usual bomb throwing method in Baicheng.

Gong Yingxian explained: “you all know this. Its chemical properties are very unstable. Once it is violently impacted, it will explode, so you should be careful when carrying it. Don’t knock it. Just throw it out when you use it. Although it’s not powerful, it’s very practical. Then, you can bring one night vision instrument alone.”

Looking at this pile of dangerous “equipment”, Ren Yi couldn’t help asking, “does Huang Yan have a gun?”

Gong Yingxian nodded without hesitation.

Let him take a breath. The Chinese government’s control of guns is the strictest in the world, not to mention that here is the root of the imperial city. These x sect members are really lawless.

Qiu Yan said, “this task is too dangerous. Don’t you really inform the bureau?”

“Inform the bureau that most of the hostages will not be rescued. I’m afraid we’ll go in too.” Gong Yingxian’s eyes were firm, “catch Huang Yan and I’ll go back to the branch.”

Qiu Yan sighed, “OK.”

Gong Yingxian said, “we’re not far from the agreed place. I’ll let you off a little ahead. I’ll take Bai Yan to exchange hostages. You go around from a hidden place.”

“OK.”

Gong Yingxian looked at Ren Yu and wanted to stop talking.

Qiu Yan said, “don’t worry, I’ll take care of him.”

Ren Yu said, “I don’t need anyone to take care of me.”

“You should listen to sister Yan.” Gong Yingxian said positively, “you have neither the experience of rescuing hostages nor the experience of facing mobs. This is not a scene that you can cope with with with good physical fitness. Listen to sister Yan, help her and me. Let’s save people and catch Huang Yan.”

Ren Yu said in a muffled voice, “I see.”

“Let’s go.”

“Gong Yingxian.” Ren Yu suddenly opened his mouth and stopped him.

Gong Yingxian looked back at him.

“If I don’t put the tracker, if we don’t follow you.” Ren Yu said in a deep voice, “are you really going to deal with a retired special forces soldier with a gun alone?” He felt uncomfortable. He seemed to be thinking about Gong Yingxian anytime and anywhere, but when Gong Yingxian was going to risk his life, he didn’t think of him.

Gong Yingxian nodded: “I must go.”

“I have to go. Have you ever thought about me… Us?” Because his breathing became short, Ren’s chest began to fluctuate greatly, “have you ever thought about how important your safety is to us, and you don’t seem to worry about your possible injury, or even…”

Qiu Yan also looked at Gong Yingxian with a straight face.

Gong Yingxian blinked and said softly, “Ren Yu, you can understand now. I watched you put out the fire.”

Ren Yu was stunned.

“I made so many preparations just to protect myself. I… Thought, thought you would worry about me, but I must go.”

Ren Yu lost his head. He couldn’t refute Gong Yingxian, because they all had things to do and reasons to go: “then… You must come back safely.”

“You too.”

After getting on the bus, Gong Yingxian drove on for a while.

A rusty sign on the roadside flashed in the dark. In front of it was the place where Huang Yan and Gong Yingxian agreed to exchange hostages – an abandoned factory.

When approaching the factory, Gong Yingxian put them down and drove straight to the factory gate with Baicheng.

Ren Yu and Qiu Yan hurried to the factory.

On the way, Ren Yu said anxiously, “will baichi reveal us?”

“If what he said is true, then he is safer in our hands than in Huang Yan’s hands, he won’t say.”

“Do you think what he said is true?”

“It’s hard to say. I always think…” Qiu Yan thought, “my analysis and intuition is that he told the truth, but he also hid the truth.”

“I have the same feeling as you. Maybe he really disagreed with Ziyan on some things. At least, Ziyan didn’t help him escape from Shengtian in the process of his arrest and wanted. Instead, he wanted him to use himself as a bait to lead us into the hotel and kill us and yuexingu.”

“So he turned back.” Qiu Yan nodded. “It makes sense.”

They soon ran to the factory. I don’t know how long this place has been abandoned. The grass in the yard has grown more than half a person. In the dark environment around, those weeds dance with the wind, like a cluster of ghosts.

In the factory, there was only one warehouse with lights on. They ran around to the back door of the warehouse.
