Chapter 353: I broke my promise and failed to protect myself
It was a dark and windy night.
Suddenly, a quick and sharp voice came from the intercom.
"Attention! Attention! Suspicious activity has been detected near the abandoned factory in the East District. Please ask nearby police forces to provide quick support!"
Jiang Zeyuan and his team members immediately became tense and drove the police car without hesitation, speeding towards the abandoned factory in the East District at lightning speed.
When they arrived at the scene, the abandoned factory was dark and silent.
Only a few rays of light, so weak that they were almost negligible, struggled to penetrate the shabby windows and fell on the dusty ground.
Relying on his rich experience, Jiang Zeyuan carefully led his team members and sneaked into the factory like a cheetah.
His footsteps were as light as a cat's as he moved forward cautiously in the darkness. Every step was full of vigilance and his breathing was deliberately suppressed.
Just as they approached a dilapidated warehouse.
Suddenly, a fierce struggle and a low threatening voice were heard from inside.
"Ugh... Help..."
"If you move again, I'll kill you!"
Jiang Zeyuan immediately signaled his team members to prepare for battle, and he himself, like an agile leopard, quietly approached the warehouse door, trying to observe the situation inside.
Through the crack in the door, I saw several burly kidnappers surrounding a shivering hostage.
The hostage's face was filled with fear and he struggled desperately.
It has been confirmed that this face is the person they want to save.
The kidnappers were wielding sharp knives and thick sticks, and the situation was extremely critical.
Jiang Zeyuan didn't hesitate at all. He kicked the warehouse door open fiercely and shouted, "Police! Don't move!"
This sudden action caused the kidnappers to panic.
But they reacted quickly, picked up their weapons, and rushed towards Jiang Zeyuan and his team members like a group of crazy beasts.
"Humph, you've come just in time!" one of the kidnappers shouted viciously.
A fierce and dangerous fight began.
Jiang Zeyuan was as agile as lightning. He rushed towards a kidnapper quickly and dodged the stick swung by the kidnapper by turning sideways.
With a "whoosh" sound, a swift straight punch hit the kidnapper in the face.
The kidnapper screamed "Ah" and staggered back a few steps.
However, another kidnapper took the opportunity to attack from behind, stabbing Jiang Zeyuan in the back with a knife.
Jiang Zeyuan only had time to turn slightly, but the knife still scratched his back.
"Hiss", he felt a sharp pain, but he endured the pain and did not retreat at all. Instead, he ignited an even stronger fighting spirit.
Other police officers also assisted and engaged in a fierce confrontation with other kidnappers.
"Bang bang", the sound of fists hitting flesh.
"Clang", the sounds of sticks falling intertwined together, making the whole scene thrilling.
Just when the situation was gradually under control, an extremely cunning kidnapper suddenly pulled out a pistol from a hidden corner.
The black muzzle of the gun looked particularly eerie and terrifying in the dim light.
"Click", the kidnapper pulled the bolt and pointed the gun viciously at Jiang Zeyuan with a ferocious face.
Jiang Zeyuan's heart sank suddenly, and he instantly realized that the situation had become extremely critical, with life and death hanging by a thread.
But he was not at all panicked. The perseverance and courage honed by many years of military career were fully displayed at this moment.
He quickly signaled with his eyes to his team members to be careful, and he himself was like a cheetah locking onto its prey, staring closely at every slight movement of the kidnapper, with all the muscles in his body tensed, ready to react at any time.
Just when the kidnapper's trembling fingers were about to pull the trigger.
Jiang Zeyuan did not hesitate and pounced on the kidnapper like a cannonball.
The kidnappers must not be allowed to shoot, and teammates and hostages must not be harmed.
The kidnapper struggled frantically, and the two of them wrestled on the ground in an instant, raising a cloud of dust.
"Bang!" In the fierce fight, the pistol went off accidentally, and a bullet whizzed out like a demon, shooting straight at Jiang Zeyuan.
The bullet hit his abdomen. The powerful impact caused his body to shake violently. Blood instantly gushed out from the wound like a fountain, staining his clothes red.
But Jiang Zeyuan seemed not to feel the pain, with an unyielding fire burning in his eyes.
Using all his strength, he let out a loud "Hey!"
He grasped the kidnapper's wrist tightly with both hands like iron clamps and twisted it violently.
The kidnapper screamed "Ah" in pain and the gun in his hand finally fell.
Jiang Zeyuan endured the piercing pain in his abdomen, and with amazing willpower, he quickly picked up the gun and pointed it at the kidnapper.
At this moment, his face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead, but his eyes were still extremely firm.
The other team members took the opportunity to rush forward and subdue the remaining kidnappers.
"Don't move, stay still!" The team members' roars echoed throughout the warehouse.
The hostages were successfully rescued, but Jiang Zeyuan fell to the ground in critical condition due to his injuries.
Blood continued to ooze out of his abdomen, staining the ground beneath him a shocking red. His face also had multiple scratches, making him look miserable.
The team members gathered around, "Chief, how are you?"
"Hold on, Captain!"
"I'm fine, don't worry." Jiang Zeyuan endured the pain and used up his last bit of strength.
My body was gradually losing strength and my consciousness was becoming blurred.
Wifey, I’m sorry!
I broke my promise and failed to protect myself.
Subsequently, an ambulance arrived at the scene and sent Jiang Zeyuan to the hospital for treatment.
"Bang~"
The water cup in Jian Yue's hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, and she stood up suddenly.
His right eye twitched and he looked at the quaint clock on the wall in panic. The hour hand had slowly pointed to a little after eleven o'clock.
At this time of day, Jiang Zeyuan should have gone home long ago, but today he was nowhere to be seen.
He kept pacing in the living room, a handkerchief tightly clutched in his hand.
Just then, the phone rang suddenly without warning.
The sharp ringing sounded particularly harsh in the silent living room.
Jian Yue was startled by the sudden sound, her heart suddenly tightened, and a bad premonition came to her mind.
He hurriedly walked to the phone and picked up the receiver with trembling hands.
"Hey?"
An urgent voice came from the other end of the phone, "Excuse me, are you Director Jiang's family? I'm Xiao Li from the bureau. Director Jiang... He was seriously injured and is now in the hospital!"
These words were like a bolt from the blue, instantly scaring Jian Yue to death.
My hand loosened and the receiver almost fell to the ground.
After a brief moment of shock, he quickly came to his senses, grabbed the cloth bag beside him, and rushed to the door desperately.
My mind was in a mess, with only one thought: I must get to the hospital as soon as possible and make sure Jiang Zeyuan was safe.
Rushing out of the door, Jian Yue ran all the way to the roadside.
