Chapter 487 The Hostage
To tell the truth, that was about the army’s temporarily renting of the land. However, the contract was surely confidential and there were no chances for other people to see it at all.
The army’s renting the land must got many things involved. Common people couldn’t inquire about it. They couldn’t wonder about it, either.
At that time, Yi Yunrui had got something about Yin Tianyang and threatened him. Therefore, Yin Tianyang couldn’t but accept Yi Yunrui’s conditions in the contract. If the secret of army’s renting land is not taken into account, Yin Tianyang is surely taken advantage in the contract.
Yin Tianyang felt humiliated in the case years ago. And then, he took the contract as his weapon and fought back against Yi Yunrui when he thought the time came.
However, the whole thing was not but a plan made by Yi Yunrui many years ago.
Yi Yunrui knew Yin Tianyang very well. So, he set a trap and waited Yin Tianyang to fall into it himself.
Yin Tianyang lodged a false accusation against Yi Yunrui. Now Yi Yunrui is proved to be innocent and Yin Tianyang will be in trouble instead.
Shen Mo has seen everything. People call Yin Tianyang “Smiling Fox”. Actually, Yi Yunrui is the real one of strategies.
When she hears this, Xia Ning gives a sigh of relief, “It is good. You are fine.” She turns to look at Yi Yunrui with additional admiration.
Her husband is really awesome!
“Darling, you are awesome, seriously.” Even though they are with Shen Mo, she can’t help saying it out.
She always knows that Yi Yunrui is a wise man. Now, she truly understands the winner of a battle may show up in disguise.
“You silly.” Yi Yunrui strokes his lovely wife’s head affectionately, “When fighting with some people, you can never be too careful.”
Xia Ning nods. It is right. They can never be too careful. Because the danger is always around.
“Special Assistant Shen.” Xia Ning turns to ask Shen Mo, who is drinking the tea, “Was Yin Tianyang punished?”
“He has been suspended from his duty.” Shen Mo responds briefly in an easy voice.
He is suspended, just as what happened to Yi Yunrui previously.
If that is the only punishment, it is far from enough!
Xia Ning remembers the scene when Yi Yunrui was kept in detention under the ground of Beijing. She bursts into a fury.
“Is he only suspended from his duty?” She knows that Shen Mo is trying to avoid talking about some things, but she can’t help getting very angry!
“Oh…” Shen Mo hesitates. He is aware of Xia Ning’s rage. He rubs his nose and says, “No. Sure. The organization is still doing some investigation. If it is proved with evidence, Yin Tianyang is going to jail.”
Xia Ning purses her lips. She remembers the disc Yi Yunrui gave to Shen Mo just now. The information inside is too important. If everything goes as planned, Yin Tianyang will definitely go to the end of his life.
“Sweetheart.” Yi Yunrui says in an indifferent voice, “Don’t worry. Yin Tianyang will be punished as he should be.”
Yin Tianyang is hurt by the tricks he has played. Yi Yunrui set the trap five years ago. This time, he won’t give any chances for Yin Tianyang to cause any trouble again!
The couple looks too sweet. Shen Mo feels a little embarrassed to sit with them there. He glances at the time and says, “Commander Yi, Mrs. Yi, it is urgent. I may go back to B City for now. I will report to you with any news.”
Yi Yunrui nods. As if he suddenly remembers something, he says, “Special Assistant Shen, one minute.” Then, he turns to his wife, “Sweetheart, I need to discuss something with Special Assistant Shen. I will be back in five minutes.”
“Hum.”
They go out and stay outside.
“Commander Yi, do you have any instructions for me?”
“Special Assistant Shen, when you investigate Yin Tianyang, if there is anything related to Ning, can you leave it to me to deal with?”
Shen Mo turns silent for a little while when he hears his words. Yin Tianyang is from the government while Yi Yunrui is from the army. They belong to two different departments. He has to discuss with his superior about Yi Yunrui’s requirement. However, given Yi Yunrui’s identity, Shen Mo thought it should be fine.
The problem is why Yi Yunrui asks him to talk about this outside in person. He wonders whether Yi Yunrui knows anything.
“OK. I will try.”
“Thank you, Special Assistant Shen.” Yi Yunrui understands that he puts Shen Mo in inconvenience. To be honest, he can make use of his personal power to interfere in the case directly. But it will bring some difficulties to Shen Mo. So, he prefers dealing with it through the normal process.
Shen Mo leaves and Yi Yunrui goes back to the room. He opens the door and finds his wife worried.
“Darling, Weiwei is in danger.”
Yi Yunrui’s eyes gleam sharply. He asks, “What happens?”
“Jing Shu just called. She said that Weiwei went to the bank and came across a robbery! The robbers were still confronting the police in the bank. Weiwei was one of the hostages.”
“When did that happen?”
“It happened thirty minutes ago.”
Yi Yunrui frowns, “It has been quite a long time. I may go to have a look.”
“Wait!” Xia Ning decisively says, “I will go with you.”
“No…”
“I insist!” Xia Ning knows that her husband will disagree. She says decisively, “If you don’t take me with you, I will go myself.”
Yi Yunrui feels nervous to hear her words. The bank robbers are all dangerous men. Accidents tend to happen there. It may be OK for his wife to go there if she is not pregnant. But she is pregnant now. What if she gets frightened?
“Darling, don’t worry. I will take care of myself. You have my promise. I won’t take any reckless actions.”
“…Fine. However, you have to promise that you are not going to get off the car.”
The bank is not far away from Lung King Heen. It takes less than five minutes for Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning to get there.
The police surround the bank outside the door. The robbers take the hostages inside to confront the police. Many media are stopped out of the police cordon.
“Sweetheart, you stay in the car.” Yi Yunrui gives a brief instruction and gets off.
Xia Ning sees her husband go to the police and all the policemen salute him. Xia Ning feels more worried.
The car is so far away from the bank. She can see nothing!
“Commander, the robbers kidnap five hostages. They have many dangerous weapons. We are negotiating with the robbers now…” A policeman reports seriously to Yi Yunrui.
“What do the robbers ask for?” Yi Yunrui interrupts directly.
“They require the police to arrange a helicopter to send them away. Or, they are going to hurt the hostages.”
Yi Yunrui glances at the time, “It has been forty minutes.”
The policeman wipes the sweats on his forehead. Faced with such a high commander, he feels very stressed!
“Hum… Yes, it is.”
“Are you going on confronting like this?”
“The management has arranged a negotiator. She is on the way here.”
“When will she arrive?”
“In around ten minutes.”
“How many minutes?”
The policeman swallows his saliva, “Ten, ten minutes.”
Yi Yunrui freezes his eyes. He is just going to speak when he suddenly finds his car coming to him. He feels shocked and turns to go to the car.
The policeman sees the commander leave and gives a sigh of relief.
Yi Yunrui opens the door of the car and then closes it at once. His voice sounds a little angry. “Didn’t I say that it was dangerous? Why do you come here? Do you forget what you promised me before we come here?”
Xia Ning responds with a pleading smile, “I don’t forget it. You said I had to stay in the car. I am in the car now!”
…
“Darling, please don’t be mad at me.” Xia Ning holds out her hand to stroke her husband’s chest. She says in a gentle voice, “Knight XV is strong against shock. I will stay in the car and it is very safe here. Darling, don’t worry. I will be safe as long as I don’t get off the car.”
Yi Yunrui holds his wife’s hand. He closes his eyes and tries hard to calm down.
He has been in much more bloody places. To him, what happens now is nothing serious at all. However, his wife is here. He has to be much more careful. He can’t bear to see accidents happen to her again.
It has been the biggest tolerance for him to allow his wife to come to the site. Now, she gets so close to it…
Xia Ning purses her lips, realizing that her husband is really angry.
At this time, some noise is heard. Xia Ning looks out through the bullet-proof window and sees a woman going directly towards the bank.
She is in black tights. She has a sexy body. She raises her hands. However, Xia Ning sees her face which looks very confident with a mild smile. Besides, her mouth is moving. It seems she is … having chewing gum.
She is an absolute beauty!
Xia Ning feels shocked. What ahead are robbers with guns and bullets. The woman doesn’t fear. Instead, it looks as if she is going to have fun there!
The robbers are aware of the change. Some of them come out and point their guns at the woman.
People around cry in fear.
The woman talks with the robbers for a while. Soon, the helicopter arrives!
The robbers are excited to see that. Then send out the hostages they hold.
Xia Ning’s eyes brighten. She sees Leng Weiwei.
At his time, something shocking is going on. The hostages are set free. However, the beauty in black initiatively goes to the robbers and willingly becomes a new hostage of them.
“God!” Xia Ning cries in surprise. The woman is alone by herself while there are at least ten robbers over there. She is just like a little lamb going into a crowd of wolves!
The woman follows the robbers to get on the helicopter, which flies away soon. The police stay and don’t take any actions to follow it!
“Darling, is that woman a policewoman?” Xia Ning asks worriedly.
Leng Weiwei is safe now. But Xia Ning gets more worried about the woman who becomes the new hostage!
Yi Yunrui shakes his head, “No.”
Xia Ning feels confused to hear his response. After a while, she collects herself, “She is not a policewoman? Why did the police send the helicopter?”
Yi Yunrui glances at the time, “It is almost the time. Zhang Hai, let’s go.”
“Yes, Commander.”
Knight XV roars away. Soon, the police behind them also take actions.
A long queue of police cars follows Knight XV. Xia Ning feels very confused to see that.
What on earth did Yi Yunrui mean by saying “it is almost the time”?
