197: Who are you? Why do you have a gun?
In the small woods.
The hairs on Zhang Zhenshan's body stood on end.
Having walked the edge of life and death for years.
He possessed an inexplicable sensitivity to danger.
At this moment.
He knew clearly that a gun was pointed at the back of his head.
If he made the slightest move.
A bullet would pierce his scalp.
It would blow open his skull and turn the brains inside into mush.
The immense terror prevented him from entertaining any shred of hope.
However.
As a veteran police officer.
How could he possibly surrender without a fight?
In his mind.
Countless plans were rapidly being simulated.
"Drop the gun!"
The criminal behind him gave him no chance.
Any second of hesitation, and he would immediately open fire.
Zhang Zhenshan didn't hesitate, immediately dropping the gun in his hand.
The criminal felt slightly relieved.
He kicked the handgun far away.
"Hands on your head, squat down."
"Don't try anything funny, or I'll blow your brains out!"
Zhang Zhenshan remained obedient.
He immediately raised his hands, clasped his head, and slowly squatted down.
The criminal was very satisfied.
Now he was a little hesitant.
Should he shoot this police officer and run immediately?
Or should he take the officer hostage and force the police to let him escape?
His other accomplices had already been killed by the police.
Only he remained.
If he didn't make the right choice.
His chance of survival would be slim.
While the criminal was deep in thought.
Zhang Zhenshan had already prepared himself.
He still had a handgun tucked into his trouser leg.
He planned to use the opportunity of squatting down to launch a fatal strike.
His hand had already reached the gun.
As long as he drew it from his trouser leg, he could catch the criminal off guard.
And take the criminal down with one shot.
"Quickly, hurry up!"
"He should be nearby."
"There's a patch of woods here, he's most likely inside."
"Everyone be careful!"
... Du Bingbing and her subordinates' voices came from a distance.
"Bang!"
The criminal suddenly fired, aiming directly at the back of Zhang Zhenshan's head.
Coincidentally.
Zhang Zhenshan heard the voices and accelerated his action.
While drawing the gun, he simultaneously lowered his head.
Inadvertently, he managed to dodge the fatal shot.
A small tuft of hair fluttered in the wind.
Zhang Zhenshan's scalp tingled.
Holy crap!
He was nearly blown to smithereens!
Subconsciously, he rolled to the side, avoiding the muzzle flash of the second shot.
The criminal was also somewhat surprised.
How could that shot have missed?
However.
He was also a master, and quickly adjusted his stance.
He tracked Zhang Zhenshan's figure and fired another shot.
"Bang!"
It narrowly grazed Zhang Zhenshan's waist and hit the grass.
Zhang Zhenshan continued to evade.
"Ow!"
His foot slipped on the hard shell of a wild fruit, and he tumbled to the ground.
Becoming a sitting duck.
A cold, sinister smile flashed in the masked criminal's eyes.
He turned the muzzle and aimed it at Zhang Zhenshan's head.
He was an expert.
Normally, he disdained shooting for the body.
At such a close distance.
With his marksmanship, he was one hundred percent sure he could hit the head.
Outside the small woods.
Having heard two continuous gunshots.
Du Bingbing and the others felt panicked!
A gunfight was happening inside.
They didn't know how Zhang Zhenshan was doing.
The last criminal was agile and an extremely accurate shot.
Zhang Zhenshan was, after all, older.
His physical condition and reflexes had declined significantly.
He was likely no match for the criminal.
Unfortunately.
They could only worry helplessly, unable to offer any assistance.
They could only rush into the woods with all their might.
"Bang!"
The third shot rang out.
The masked criminal's hand jerked, and the gun fell to the ground.
His wrist had been shot, and blood streamed out.
"Ah!"
Covering his injured right wrist, he hid behind a nearby large tree.
"Who is it?"
"Who is hiding there!"
A young man walked out from behind a large tree; it was Chen Yang.
Worried that something might happen to Zhang Zhenshan, he rushed over and finally arrived at the scene of the gunfight just before Du Bingbing.
He had saved Zhang Zhenshan's life.
The reason he shot the wrist instead of the head or the heart.
Was mainly because he wanted to capture the last criminal alive.
To interrogate him for information.
When Zhang Zhenshan saw that his rescuer was Chen Yang.
His eyes were full of shock!
Why did Chen Yang have a gun?
He remembered that Chen Yang was neither a police officer nor a soldier.
This was not the USA, where guns ran rampant.
Dragon Country's gun control was extremely strict.
It was simply impossible for an ordinary person to carry a gun.
Once caught, that meant illegal gun possession.
Legal responsibility would be pursued!
"Captain Zhang, I've hit the criminal's wrist."
"Let's try to capture him alive."
Chen Yang's expression was very calm.
He showed no sign of panic about having injured someone with a gun in front of the police.
He looked like a seasoned veteran.
Zhang Zhenshan subconsciously nodded.
"Alright!"
The two men approached the criminal's direction from the left and the right.
Unfortunately.
When they reached the large tree where he was hiding, they found no one.
There were only a few drops of red blood on the ground.
Just as the two were preparing to pursue.
Du Bingbing arrived with her team.
"Old Zhang, are you alright?"
"Whose blood is this?"
Zhang Zhenshan shook his head.
"I'm fine."
"This is the criminal's blood."
"I was in danger just now, and Chen Yang saved my life."
"He shot the criminal in the wrist; the criminal poses almost no threat now, so we can capture him alive."
Du Bingbing had witnessed Chen Yang's marksmanship before.
She nodded to him, expressing her gratitude.
"You are not a police officer, and it is dangerous here, so quickly withdraw from the woods."
"The subsequent operation will be handled by the police."
Chen Yang saw that they had four or five people, which should be sufficient to deal with one criminal.
He prepared to withdraw.
[Ding!]
[Today's Intel Triggered!]
[Intel 4]: Zhang Zhenshan is in danger.
He opened the intel to read it.
During the upcoming operation, Zhang Zhenshan will encounter the criminal head-on, be shot three times, and die instantly.
Chen Yang was shocked!
It seemed Old Zhang was destined to face this calamity.
He had saved him once, but the danger had not been averted.
Absolutely not!
He could not withdraw from the operation yet.
Otherwise, Zhang Zhenshan would surely die!
"Captain Du, I want to join you in apprehending the criminal."
"After all, I've exchanged blows with the criminals several times and am quite familiar with them."
"Furthermore, you don't have many people; my participation can add strength."
Du Bingbing firmly disagreed.
"No!"
"You are not a police officer and have no law enforcement authority!"
"Moreover, we cannot allow you to be in danger. If something happens, who will take responsibility?"
For the sake of Zhang Zhenshan, Chen Yang certainly wouldn't give up.
"You don't need to be responsible for my safety."
"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of myself."
Du Bingbing's eyes narrowed.
Her gaze, full of scrutiny, focused on Chen Yang.
"Why are you so determined to join the operation?"
"Who exactly are you?"
"And why do you have a gun?"
As soon as she said this.
The surrounding police officers immediately became highly vigilant.
Their guns were subtly aimed at Chen Yang.
Zhang Zhenshan was so anxious that sweat beaded on his forehead.
Regardless of Chen Yang's identity or why he had a gun.
At least just now.
He had genuinely saved his life.
"Captain Du, let's talk this out..."
