Ye Jinwu had never been so scared before.
She and Ye Wan checked out of the hotel early the next morning and packed their bags to leave Yunnan. However, on the way to the long-distance bus station, they experienced a 3D live version of a police and gangster movie.
Gunshots rang out, and the surrounding crowd screamed, fled, crowded, and bumped into them. In the chaos, she and Ye Wan got separated.
Finally, she was pushed into a corner by the fleeing people and was kidnapped by the gangsters who were also forced into a corner by the police.
"Don't move." The gangster warned her in stiff Chinese, holding her neck with one arm and holding a bloody dagger against her head with the other hand.
"Don't..." Ye Jinwu's scream of fear was choked in an instant, and only fear and horror were left in her watery eyes.
The man's arms were strong and powerful, and he held her with great force, pressing her throat hard and making it difficult for her to breathe.
She looked at the street. The crowd was still roaring, screaming, fleeing and crashing violently, like a group of prey trapped in a cage.
The police are confronting the criminals.
The gangsters asked the police to put down their guns, but the police asked the gangsters to release the hostages. The two sides confronted each other. The gangsters never asked the police to let them go because they took hostages, and the police did not let the gangsters go because they took hostages.
The police were cautious because of the hostages in the hands of the criminals.
The criminals were wary of the guns in the hands of the police.
At that moment she understood.
The man who held her hostage was not an ordinary gangster. He must be extremely vicious, so the police would do everything they could to bring him to justice.
This is a confrontation that is doomed to be fruitless.
And she is destined to be a victim of the competition between the police and the gangsters.
"Let...let me go." She began to struggle violently.
At this moment, the police were cautious because she was being held hostage. She was the only chance for the criminals to escape, and they would not kill her easily.
All she could do was to try her best to create trouble for the criminals, distract them and give the police an opportunity to take advantage of them.
This is also her only chance to save herself.
"Shut up and be quiet." The man held her with more force. Her neck seemed to be almost broken. She felt pain and suffocation. She was forced to raise her head, open her mouth and breathe desperately.
“Don’t… kill me… help… help…” She didn’t give up and continued to struggle, using both her hands and feet.
The consequence of resistance is ruthless suppression.
Her throat was strangled, breathing became difficult, and her brain was severely deprived of oxygen. It was as if the strength in her body had been drained away. Her consciousness became increasingly blurred, and her brain felt heavy and dull.
In her hazy consciousness, she seemed to hear gunshots and the screams and roars of her family members.
She seemed to smell a strong smell of blood, which seemed to come from the man holding her hostage. She thought her interference plan was successful. The most important thing she should do now was to resist. This was her only chance to escape.
However, before she could move, she heard the sound of a bullet whistling in the air. Her body was pushed by someone, and with a "puff" sound, she heard the sound of the bullet hitting her flesh.
"Awu..." She seemed to hear Ye Wan's sharp scream.
Her tense consciousness suddenly relaxed.
Fortunately, Awan is fine!
"It hurts... It hurts so much!" The sharp pain in her left shoulder made her eyes go dark, and her dull mind sank into darkness bit by bit.
In the final moment when her thoughts collapsed, there was only one person in her mind.
Si Yuanzhen!
—
Ye Jinwu's consciousness sank and floated in the severe pain. Whenever she couldn't bear the severe pain and passed out, she would become conscious again because of the severe pain.
The wound on her shoulder was still bleeding, staining her light grey knitted sweater red. There was a large amount of blood, both hers and that of the bandit, which was shocking to see.
The ride was bumpy and shaky all the way, and the pain in her abdomen reminded her that she was being carried on someone's shoulders and running away.
She was thrown to the ground mercilessly after an unknown amount of time. The pain from the gunshot on her left shoulder, which had long been numb, now bleeds like a fountain after the violent impact. The sharp pain instantly spreads throughout her body.
"It hurts..." She cried out in pain in a daze. Because of excessive blood loss and because she was lying on the ground, her whole body was cold and she curled up subconsciously.
"You've already escaped the police, why are you still carrying this woman? Why not just kill her with a knife?"
Ye Jinwu, who was about to faint from the pain, was suddenly kicked hard by someone. She seemed to hear the sound of her ribs breaking, and felt a heart-wrenching pain in her chest and abdomen.
She couldn't help moaning.
"This woman is very evil. I just escaped from the police and was targeted by another group of people. They are very difficult to deal with, even harder than the police. The target of that group of people is this woman. I always feel that this woman is not simple."
While escaping, he was aimed at by the other party's gun and nearly lost his life. Fortunately, he reacted very quickly and used the woman to block the gun. After that, the other party never dared to act rashly again.
Ye Jinwu, who was drowsy, felt someone pinching her cheeks and holding them in place: "This woman is really good-looking."
Then her face was thrown away.
"This is..." A man noticed the wooden hairpin slipping out of the woman's sweater pocket, and he squatted down and took it in his hand to examine it carefully.
The other man's pupils shrank and his voice trembled: "Hainan Huanghuali wood."
Both of them looked at the half-dead woman lying on the ground, their faces showing fear, horror, shock, and all kinds of emotions.
They realized at the same time that this woman was tricky!
In the collection world, precious woods such as Hainan huanghuali, rosewood, Southeast Asian red sandalwood, golden nanmu sunken wood, agarwood and other rare woods must pass through the hands of the Si family during the circulation process. The Si family is an untouchable surname in Yunnan and Dian, occupying a corner and dominating the area.
This rosewood hairpin has purple and brown texture, fine quality, elegant texture, and a soft touch. It must be at least 500 years old.
Today, when Huanghuali wood is on the verge of extinction, the only person who can still have such a handicraft is Mr. Si.
The identity of this woman who owns such precious Hainan Huanghuali wood is worth further investigation.
"Shit, I just grabbed a random hostage, but it turned out to be a big trouble."
Thinking about how he had evaded the police all the way but was being chased by another unknown force and was almost in danger of death, he felt a huge fear in his heart.
The connection between this woman and Si family is beyond doubt. Yunnan and Dian are Si family's territory. If they offend Si family, they will have no way to escape.
"What should we do now?"
As soon as the man finished speaking, the wooden door of the room was kicked open. The not-so-strong door was shattered into pieces by the kick.
