At this moment, everyone standing in the room is my man. The enemy's men have all fallen to the ground. The last one remaining guy is trembling with fear, hiding behind Yoyo, but the dagger in his hand never leaves Yoyo's neck.
Fortunately, Yoyo originally had two people with her, but during the chaos of battle, one of them rushed up and was knocked unconscious by my men. However, at the very end, the other side still used Yoyo as a hostage and took us hostage.
The room fell silent. The Vietnamese man hiding behind Yoyo screamed hoarsely a few times, his face contorted with madness. His hand trembled slightly as the dagger pierced Yoyo's skin, and blood continued to flow...
I immediately yelled, "Stop! Don't hurt her!"
But I immediately realized that this Vietnamese man did not understand Chinese... Obviously, many people in Vietnam understand Chinese, but not all of them do.
I immediately grabbed Li Wenyong from the ground, then twisted his chin and pulled hard...
Crack! Li Wenyong cried out in pain, finally able to speak.
"Tell your men to put down their knives!" I said through gritted teeth.
Li Wenyong glared at me. This villain actually had some backbone. He looked pained, but his eyes were full of venom: "Do you think I'm stupid? If I let her go, I'm dead." Suddenly, his eyes darted around, and he opened his mouth and said something in Vietnamese. I immediately realized something was wrong and quickly punched him in the mouth. He only managed to say a few words before I punched him back, and he spat out several teeth, his mouth full of blood.
Suddenly I saw someone, and it was actually the one with the broken nose!
This guy is a complete coward. The moment we started fighting, he was the first to dart under the table and is now lying on the floor trembling. I tossed Li Wenyong to one of my buddies and went over to pick up the broken nose: "Tell him to stop and let go of that girl."
The man with the broken nose dared not refuse and exchanged a few words with the man in Vietnamese. The man's voice was filled with tension. The man with the broken nose said with a worried expression, "He won't agree. He said you all have to leave..."
I cursed inwardly.
If only I had a gun right now!
I took a deep breath: "Tell him that as long as he lets go of that girl, I promise I'll let him leave here and I won't touch him!"
With a trembling voice, Duanbi spoke a few words to the Vietnamese man. He looked at me and whispered, "He...he wants you to release Yong Ge first..."
snort!
A thought flashed through my mind, and a murderous glint appeared on my face. I walked up to Li Wenyong, grabbed his hand, and slammed it onto the table. Then I took a dagger that I had stolen from one of my brothers...
"ah!!!!!!"
A piercing scream echoed throughout the room!
The dagger in my hand pierced Li Wenyong's hand, pinning his palm to the table! Although Li Wenyong's teeth had been knocked out and he couldn't speak, his scream was extremely loud.
Without changing my expression, I gripped the hilt of the dagger in one hand, the blade embedded in the back of Li Wenyong's hand... I glared at him with my broken nose: "Tell him, if he doesn't release the man, I'll chop off his big hand! I'll count to three, and if he still doesn't release him, I'll chop off his second hand!"
After all, a small-time thug with a broken nose had never seen anything like this before. He was so scared that his legs went weak and his voice trembled uncontrollably.
Just as he spoke in a trembling voice, I deliberately turned the hilt of the knife in my hand...
The blade of the dagger was embedded in Li Wenyong's palm. As I turned the handle, the blade spun at the point where it pierced his palm, causing Li Wenyong to scream even more agonizingly, like a pig being slaughtered...
My face was hard and cold as a rock, but at the same time I could clearly see that the man who was holding YOYO hostage had fear in his eyes!
Actually, I was gambling in my heart. I bet that these petty thugs didn't have my guts! I was betting that their resolve wasn't as strong as mine!
Actually, if the other party had been more ruthless or tougher, and had casually stabbed Yoyo a couple of times while I was stabbing Li Wenyong with the dagger, I probably would have given in immediately!
But I'm willing to bet! This guy doesn't have the guts!
Seeing that his gaze was beginning to soften, I didn't hesitate. I immediately grabbed Li Wenyong's other hand, swiftly pulled out the dagger, and stabbed him deeply...
Seize it!!
Li Wenyong suffered excruciating pain from having his hands pierced repeatedly, and despite his toughness, he fainted on the spot. Blood stained the table. In the room, Qiao Qiao's eyes flashed with shock, strangeness... and a hint of pity and fear. As for Mu Tou, he gave me a strange look.
He wasn't afraid at all. After all, he was a medical student who had dissected corpses back in the day, so he naturally wouldn't care about this little bit of "flesh and blood."
My group of mechanics, on the other hand, remained calm. They were originally a group of "parachuted" soldiers carefully trained by Master Ba, so naturally they had no psychological barriers to this kind of scene.
The Vietnamese man finally broke down. He suddenly raised his dagger and quickly cut the rope binding Yoyo to the chair. Then, he continued to hold Yoyo at gunpoint with the dagger, and with his other hand, he dragged Yoyo up and back into the room.
A thought struck me!
back door!
There's a back door in the room! He's trying to escape through the back door! I raised my hand to stop my men from rushing forward, and just followed them at a leisurely pace, always keeping a distance from the guy.
Finally, the Vietnamese man retreated to an iron door in the room. He was deathly pale, his eyes fixed on us. He groped around for a long time before finally finding the doorknob...
He opened the door and dragged Yoyo out...
At that moment, as he backed away, a hand outside the door, holding a sharp blade, silently and stealthily circled around to his neck...
flutter!
With a flash of light, the sharp blade severed his neck. Just as the Vietnamese man looked on in astonishment, his eyes bulging outwards, and as he swiftly plunged the dagger down towards Yoyo's neck, a strong hand grabbed his wrist from behind!
With a thud, YOYO collapsed to the ground. I rushed over and caught her in my arms.
The dead Vietnamese man's eyes bulged out like a goldfish's; he seemed unable to believe it even in his dying moments, unable to understand how he had been suddenly killed...
The door slowly opened, revealing Xiluo's figure. His expression was somewhat complicated. He gently released the dead Vietnamese man, then looked at his blood-stained hands and the razor blade in his hand, before gently tossing them to the ground.
He seemed to want to laugh, but couldn't. He spoke in a hoarse voice, whispering to me, "Xiao Wu... I..."
He took a deep breath, as if sighing, and whispered in a complex voice, "I... finally killed someone."
I hugged Yoyo with one arm and patted the boy hard with the other, saying in a deep voice, "Alright!!" I raised my hand and patted his cheek to wake him up a little, then said slowly, "There's always a first time for everything... You'll get used to it."
A low sigh came from behind me. I turned around and saw Mu Tou looking at me. His eyes were complicated, and then he said in a low voice, "Xiao Wu... you've really changed."
Part 1: In the Jianghu, Not in Control of One's Own Fate, Chapter 189: Assaulting a Police Officer, Li Yue
Since we've already killed them, let's just go all the way!
We ransacked the room and found two safes. We forced them to reveal the combinations at knifepoint, and inside were tens of thousands of US dollars. There were also some Vietnamese dong banknotes, but I found it too much trouble; Vietnamese dong is worthless. Even if you worked yourself to death carrying billions back, it wouldn't be of much value.
What surprised me even more was that there was a handgun in the safe. This was somewhat unexpected, but I also felt a bit lucky.
It seems that Li Wenyong underestimated us. He thought he had a bunch of men and that the mixed-race beauty had no background, so he thought he had us cornered and didn't even take out his gun.
Otherwise, if they have guns, even if we succeed, we will inevitably suffer losses.
I grabbed a newspaper from the table, wrapped up the tens of thousands of dollars, and threw it into Ciro's arms: "Let's go!"
As for the gun, I casually stuffed the magazine from the safe into my pocket and tucked the gun behind my belt.
We didn't kill anyone else. Wood took the medicine he brought and injected each of the knocked-down men, enough to knock them unconscious within an hour. As for Li Wenyong, I didn't let him go; I ruthlessly cut off both of his thumbs!
Whether he's skilled with a knife or a gun, without both thumbs, he can forget about ever turning his life around!
It's not that I'm heartless, but I can't be merciful to an enemy, especially a piece of trash like this vampire. At least I didn't kill him, which is already showing mercy.
We quickly went downstairs. I carried YOYO in my arms, while Qiao Qiao supported the mixed-race beauty. Xi Luo was at the back; I could tell he looked a bit listless.
We rushed out of the building, crossed the street, got into the car, and as soon as I closed the door, I shouted, "Let's go!"
"Where to?" Aze asked me as he started the car. "Going back?"
"No. We're not going back." I took a deep breath and thought for a moment, "We killed someone today, and it's bound to get out. Going back is out of the question. We'll leave the city immediately!"
I glanced at the mixed-race beauty in Qiaoqiao's arms and said to Mutou, "Mutou, try to wake her up. I have something to ask her."
Then I patted Xiluo hard: "When Eighth Master sent you back to pick me up, did he tell us how we were going to leave Vietnam?"
“Hmm.” Xiluo composed himself: “Eighth Master guessed that you might be in trouble, so he told us to head north to the Haiphong City pier. Someone will contact us tomorrow, and then we will leave by boat.”
I laughed and cursed, "Damn it, after all this, we still have to take a boat."
However, I am somewhat relieved, at least Xiluo has made arrangements.
By this time, Mu Tou had woken up the mixed-race beauty. As soon as she woke up, she jumped up from Qiao Qiao's arms and screamed twice. Qiao Qiao immediately held her down, and then she saw YOYO, who was being held horizontally in my arms. She immediately relaxed and burst into tears.
Wood frowned, pulled out a bottle of water from behind him, unscrewed it, and handed it to the mixed-race beauty: "Drink some water first, and take a few deep breaths."
He glanced at me and said, "She was suddenly overjoyed and then suddenly sad, and she was also frightened. It's hard for a person to handle that."
Wood then rummaged through his bag and found some bandages and medicine. He first wiped the blood off Yoyo's neck, then treated the knife wound on her neck. Yoyo's neck was only slightly cut, nothing serious.
I looked at the mixed-race beauty, put my hand on her shoulder, forced her to take a few deep breaths, then watched her drink some water, and said to her very seriously, "Listen carefully, I have something to tell you now, do you understand?"
"Um……"
I was getting a little anxious, so I reached out and patted her face, then cupped her cheeks with both hands and looked into her eyes: "I'm talking to you now! Listen carefully!"
"Hmm! Oh! I understand..." The mixed-race beauty's unfocused gaze gradually returned to focus.
I breathed a sigh of relief and then said slowly, "We just rescued your sister. She's fine now, nothing's wrong, and she's safe. She only has a tiny scratch on her neck, it's nothing. She'll be bouncing around again in no time."
"Th-thank you...but she's like this now..." The mixed-race beauty stammered, glancing at Yoyo, who still had her eyes closed.
"She fainted from fright, but she'll be fine when she wakes up." I forcefully turned her face so she was facing me directly. "Let me tell you, we killed people just now to save YOYO. We injured several of those loan sharks, and one of them died!"
The mixed-race beauty seemed a little scared again.
I held her down and took a deep breath: "What I'm telling you now is, you and your sister can't go home! If you go back, those loan sharks will definitely come after you, and you'll be dead! And... even if they don't come after you, the police will! Do you hear me? Do you hear me?"
The mixed-race beauty seemed flustered, but under my gaze, she still managed to nod reluctantly.
“Very good!” I looked at her, my tone softening slightly. “I said I would heal your sister when I left! Now I’m leaving! You can’t stay either, so I’ve decided to take you and your sister with me! Do you understand? You, YOYO! You two will leave Vietnam with me! Do you understand?”
“I understand…” Even though she said that, I could still see a hint of confusion in her eyes.
“We’re not going home. There’s nothing we need to take from your house anyway,” I said quickly. “Documents, cash, clothes—we don’t need to take anything. We’re going to smuggle ourselves out of Vietnam! Once we get abroad, I’ll find a way to settle you down.”
In any case, the mixed-race beauty saved my life these past two days. After all, I hid in her place for two days, and if it weren't for that hiding place, I probably would have been beaten to death.
“Understood…” the mixed-race beauty answered loudly. Tears streamed down her face; it was hard to tell whether they were from the sadness of her impending escape or from the surprise of my promise to take her sister abroad for treatment…
"Aze, head northeast. We'll leave the city and follow the highway to Haiphong!" I took a tourist map from under my seat, looked around for a moment, and then handed it to Aze, placing it right in front of him. He glanced at it quickly, then slammed on the gas...
The car drove northeast, passing through Hanoi, and we crossed a large bridge...
After crossing the bridge, the surrounding environment became somewhat dilapidated. I could see clearly that this place seemed to be not far from where I had jumped into the river to escape that day. This place was already far from the most prosperous urban area of Hanoi. If I continued forward, I would probably be leaving the city.
The car was speeding along; there weren't many vehicles or pedestrians on the road at this time, so we were going quite fast. Just then, we suddenly heard police sirens behind us!
Everyone in the car immediately became alert. As Aze drove, he glanced at the rearview mirror and saw a police motorcycle following behind our car, flashing its lights repeatedly, signaling me to pull over.
"What should we do?" Aze asked me slowly.
I made a quick decision: stop the car!
We're still some distance from Hanoi, and if we don't stop, this policeman might continue chasing us and call the police. If we attract their attention, we'll be in trouble. At least for now, we still have some time before we leave Vietnam.
"Aze, stop the car," I said slowly, then turned to look at Xiluo and the other brothers: "Get ready. When I give you a signal, work together to subdue this policeman... Don't hurt him unless necessary, just knock him out."
