562: Reversal of the situation
"So what? Right now, forty guns are pointed at you. Appearing here means you're in a desperate situation."
Song Wen's expression returned to its usual calm, but his gun remained steadily aimed at Su Yue, without the slightest waver.
The hostages, including Chu Qing, had subtle changes in their expressions.
This was exactly the situation they had initially feared the most.
Under such a hail of bullets, how could Su Yue possibly turn the tide?
This seemed like an impossible task.
Was everything going to end here?
In a hospital room in Taiyang City First hospital, Tang Xiao was sitting in front of a laptop, the screen showing the live broadcast of the incident.
She usually didn't follow live streams, but after seeing the hashtag #SuYueLiveBroadcast# on Weibo, she immediately requested a computer and started watching.
Seeing so many guns pointed at Su Yue, she was extremely anxious, thinking about how she could help him resolve the current crisis.
She wished she could be there herself, but no matter how she thought, she was powerless to help Su Yue escape this calamity at the moment.
Her face was a little pale, and she stared intently at Su Yue on the screen, facing countless muzzles. She couldn't help but hold her breath.
She even involuntarily imagined the scene of Su Yue falling in a pool of blood...
Just thinking about the possibility of never seeing Su Yue again, her heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.
Unconsciously, a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye...
On Yingfeng Street in Taoyang, Wang Linlin and Zheng Xiaotong were also watching the live broadcast.
Zheng Xiaotong had a certain influence in the domestic detective community, although the number of domestic detectives was not large.
When the live broadcast first started, they both ate while paying attention to the development of the situation.
Zheng Xiaotong's eyes were sharp. He observed the expressions of the hostages and realized that this was not a scripted live broadcast, but a real crime scene.
Wang Linlin had some research on the psychology of criminals, and the two of them had been waiting for the live broadcast to start.
Although they didn't know why the relevant departments hadn't cut off the live broadcast, they were powerless and could only continue watching.
Until Su Yue spoke.
At first, Wang Linlin was still a little skeptical, but when she saw Su Yue's face, her whole body froze.
Especially after hearing what the drug dealer said, she bit her lip even harder.
Zheng Xiaotong looked at his niece like this and sighed in his heart.
How could he not know Su Yue?
At this time, Wang Linlin's heart was full of worry, but deep down, she actually believed in Su Yue very much.
"If it's you..."
"You must have been prepared, right?"
"I know, that look in your eyes is definitely not impulsive..."
Although she comforted herself like this, she didn't realize that she had unconsciously clenched her fists.
Her fair hands were slightly red from the excessive force.
After all, she was still worried about his safety.
After all, that was forty guns.
After all, that Song Wen was a lunatic, what if...
"There's no 'what if'..."
"You'll be fine!"
Wang Linlin was so firm in her thoughts, her eyes filled with determination.
Just as determined as when she wanted Su Yue to leave in the fire.
At the Aerospace University in Qingzhou, Zhou Wei was also watching the live broadcast, and she wasn't the only one.
Several girls in her dorm were also watching.
Su Yue's deeds had spread throughout the country, and his number of fans was even greater than those of the most popular young idols.
Because Su Yue was someone who only existed in stories.
And this time, it was Su Yue's first public appearance, which naturally aroused the curiosity of these young girls.
They wanted to know what it would be like when someone who only existed in stories actually stood up.
"So handsome!"
"So charismatic!"
"My perfect type!"
"But can he survive?"
"Nonsense, that's Su Yue!"
Such conversations entered Zhou Wei's ears.
Yes, that was Su Yue.
For others, Su Yue was just Su Yue.
But for Zhou Wei and her classmates, Su Yue was not only Su Yue, he was also Professor Lin Yi, their teacher.
In the class group, someone @ everyone: "Professor Li is on live broadcast!"
"Hurry up and watch! Wake up anyone who's sleeping first!"
"Holy cow, it's really Teacher Li!" Zhou Wei looked at the constantly popping up message notifications at the top of her phone screen, but she was focused on watching Su Yue and didn't have time to reply.
For her, Su Yue was not only Teacher Li, but also the first person she had ever admired so much.
She looked at Su Yue's appearance on her phone, recalling how she had constantly gone to him to ask questions during class breaks, and suddenly felt a little sore in her nose.
"Perhaps just watching is enough..."
"Don't let anything happen to you."
Song Wen stared at Su Yue, his arm as steady as a mountain. He stared intently at Su Yue, his gun muzzle completely still.
"What? Nothing to say?"
"Aren't you a hero?"
"Don't you want to save people?"
"Su Yue, now you're going to die here. What's the point of standing out now?"
"Or do you really think you can leave alive in this situation?"
He thought he was asking rhetorical questions, mocking.
But at this moment, Su Yue looked at him and nodded.
This solemn answer made Song Wen pause for a moment, but he quickly reacted and sneered.
"Do you really think you're a hero?"
"Do you think you have some kind of superpower?"
But Su Yue didn't answer him, instead he said, "Song Wen, if you thought I was just standing here in front of you completely unprepared, you would have shot long ago."
"But you didn't."
"What are you afraid of?" Hearing Su Yue's words, Song Wen frowned.
He was about to retort, but he heard Su Yue continue, "Listen to what you just said. You say you're mocking, but in reality, you're worried about my preparation, right?"
"You want to trick out the reason I'm standing here."
"But it's obvious from your expression that it's not that simple to get something out of my mouth."
Listening to Su Yue's words, Song Wen's expression changed.
"Do I need to know anything about you?"
Song Wen narrowed his eyes and stared at Su Yue like a poisonous snake, saying, "I just need to kill you..."
Hearing his words, Su Yue smiled again.
Immediately after, Su Yue's tone suddenly changed: "That's right."
"You thought right..."
He said sharply and quickly, "Your intuition is also very good. After saying so much, don't you just want to know what I'm relying on by standing here!"
"I can tell you!"
"As you said..."
"I do have superpowers!"
"Now I'll show you what a superpower is!"
Clap clap! Su Yue suddenly clapped his hands, the applause echoing abruptly in the lobby!
And the last scene Song Wen could see was Su Yue with a gloomy look in his eyes and a smirk on his lips, saying...
"Extinguish!" In an instant, the entire hall went dark!
After two abrupt claps, the word "Extinguish" plunged the entire auditorium into darkness instantly! The lights seemed to be instantly taken away, disappearing without a trace.
Without warning!
Just because of two claps and the word "Extinguish"?

Song Wen was stunned.
Human eyes cannot instantly adapt to sudden darkness, especially in situations where all light sources are suddenly cut off, leaving only the distant neon lights of the city.
All they had left in front of them was pure darkness, and they could only reconstruct the scene from memory.
It would take at least a few minutes to adapt to this darkness and see with weak light sources again.
And this sudden darkness made Song Wen suddenly feel a sense of danger approaching him!
He immediately pulled the trigger!
Bang!
The gun muzzle flashed, instantly illuminating the darkness in front of him.
This gunshot triggered many people's screams!
But Song Wen didn't care about these screams at all!
"Where is he?"
His shot was originally aimed at Su Yue's forehead, but at the moment the lights went out, he hesitated for a moment.
"Damn it!"
Song Wen suddenly realized something. What superpower?
This guy must have been prepared to cut off the power at this time!
That's why he deliberately wasted time talking to him, saying some things to confuse himself, and at the end, suddenly sped up his speech, just for this moment!
He remembered Su Yue's strange smile just now, that teasing expression, which instantly made his heart race!
A surge of anger rose in his heart. He gritted his teeth and spoke, suddenly realizing what the sudden extinguishing of the lights at this moment was for!
He was going to escape?
Indeed!
Song Wen knew very well that a person like Su Yue was very similar to himself and would not do useless things.
His purpose was actually to escape from here!
Song Wen roared, "Guard the passage! Don't shoot randomly! Stay where you are to avoid accidental injury!"
"Watch the situation around you!"
Although he still couldn't see, he raised his arm and continuously pulled the trigger towards the ceiling!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ten consecutive trigger pulls, and at the same time, he also hoped to see Su Yue's figure with the fleeting light.
But he failed...
Such instantaneous light was too quick to distinguish Su Yue's position at all.
"Coward!"
"Su Yue, aren't you a hero?"
"Are you running away now?"
Song Wen roared like this, and his eyes also began to slowly adapt to the darkness around him.
He looked around, trying to find Su Yue's tracks.
But just at this moment, he suddenly heard a voice close by in front of him.
"What are you talking about?"
This was Su Yue's voice!
His heart trembled violently. In an instant, he pointed his gun in the direction of the sound, but at the same time, he even took a step back!
"How is that possible!"
Song Wen's heart was filled with confusion, especially at the moment Su Yue suddenly disappeared and then suddenly appeared!
What he didn't understand was...
Su Yue didn't take this opportunity to leave?
What did he want to do?
Song Wen couldn't understand Su Yue's actions at all!
Just at this moment, he suddenly felt himself being bumped.
It was already dark, and he instinctively wanted to avoid it, even taking half a step back.
And then, a force came from the gun he was holding!
His gun muzzle was being pressed against something!
"Do you want to kill me?"
"See if you can kill a superpower user?"
"Shoot!"
Su Yue's contemptuous voice reached Song Wen's ears, but that playful and provocative tone angered Song Wen even more!
But precisely at this moment, Song Wen did not pull the trigger.
He sneered, "Su Yue, are you trying to provoke me?"
"I don't get angry that easily."
"But it seems like I'll be able to see things soon. When the time is up, don't you want to protect that woman?"
"I'll kill her first!"
Su Yue's actions at this time, this close-range provocation, led Song Wen to conclude that this was a trap.
So he didn't shoot.
Song Wen could develop to this extent in just ten years. Although he was crazy, he had always suppressed it until this day.
It was obvious that this was due to his caution and his habit of always being in an invincible position first.
He did not move his gun muzzle at this time, nor did he pull the trigger.
As they were in a stalemate, Song Wen heard a sigh.
Su Yue's voice came, "This is your last chance. Are you sure you won't kill me?"
"Song Wen!"
Su Yue raised his voice, "Shoot!"
But this voice made Song Wen feel even more that there was something wrong.
He sneered and ignored Su Yue's suggestion.
However, Su Yue continued, "Are you sure you don't want this last chance?"
"Song Wen... you are truly useless."
At this moment, Su Yue seemed to let out a slight sigh.
"Ah..."
Clap clap!
Another two claps.
"Light!"
After this sound, all the lights came back on.
When the lights came back on, Song Wen clearly saw Su Yue in front of him.
His pistol muzzle was indeed pressed against Su Yue's forehead.
Song Wen looked at this scene and felt that his brain was not enough.
Going dark could be explained by a power outage, but why did it light up again?
How could he do this?
He told him to kill him? To shoot him? Was he tired of living? What was his purpose?
Even if he was tired of living, why did he come to him?
Looking at Su Yue's sarcastic smile in front of him, he felt a chill run down his body.
This Su Yue actually maintained this expression even with more than forty guns pointed at him at the same time?
Did he really have superpowers?
Although the entire auditorium had fallen into darkness just now, Song Wen's roars, gunshots, and the flames that just spewed from the gun muzzle were all broadcast live.
Especially Su Yue's few incredibly shocking, almost commanding voices just now left a particularly deep impression on the audience.
What's more, the operation of going dark with two claps and lighting up again with two claps made them feel Su Yue's complete intellectual Rolling (crushing) when facing Song Wen!
Although no one knew how this was done at this time, it did not prevent them from feeling shocked from the bottom of their hearts.
"Su Yue is awesome!"
The bullet screens on all live broadcast platforms were like this, very uniform.
However, at this moment, Song Wen really couldn't see what Su Yue had to be confident about with a gun pointed at his forehead.
Although he didn't know what Su Yue wanted to do, the sense of threat to himself was real and constantly threatening him.
