Jiang Yunqing shook his head, not looking like he wanted to argue with me.
He looked at me like I was on fire, making it seem like I was being a nuisance.
I took his collar from Han Kun’s hand and said, “Jiang, I’m not afraid of death, but today we’re all going to die together.”
Jiang Yunqing said, “Listen to me, I am here to save you all today.”
“Hahahaha, you’re so funny. You came to save us, so what was it that you just did?”
“If Xiao Ming was going to hurt you guys, I would save you. But to do the opposite, I would have to protect Ming, and I know Ming has done a lot of things wrong, but ……”
I pooh-poohed it and said unkindly, “Don’t f*cking but with me. I’m tired of hearing this grandstanding from you. Jiang Ming is almost fifty years old and has long since ceased to be a child, why are you making it sound like we are having a conflict between kindergarten children? Are you sick or not? We almost got Jiang Ming killed and you let him take three gla*ses of wine?!”
I was really angry, behind every bear child there must be a bear parent, I didn’t expect that Jiang Ming was almost fifty and had an old bear behind him.
Seeing that he couldn’t convince us, Jiang Yunqing could only shake his head and say, “Forget it, I don’t want to talk about this anymore. I’ll take you guys out of here.”
Minmin also said, “Yes, Captain, take it easy for now. Getting out of here is the first order of business. This expert is a relative of Jiang Ming? As long as he’s in the way, the sniper won’t shoot, right?”
When Minmin said that, I froze.
Han Kun also froze.
We were all too angry just now to notice this detail.
Just now, all the sights on the sniper rifle were pointed at the back of Jiang Yunqing’s head.
I shuddered in my heart and looked panickedly at Han Kun, who also looked at Jiang Yunqing thoughtfully, and then dragged him back who was about to walk out.
Han Kun’s tone eased up a bit and said, “Old Jiang, wait a moment. I spoke a bit rashly just now, so you should understand more. Let me ask you, how is your relationship with your nephew?”
Jiang Yunqing was bewildered, asking this without a clue.
I touched my nose and said, “Have you bailed Jiang Ming out yet?”
Although Jiang Ming was locked up, we didn’t have enough evidence to convict him, and the Jiang family could have bailed him out with a little help.
“No, the police station won’t allow bail, not only that, I haven’t even been able to see him. Zhang Chao, there is nothing even the Jiang family can do about what you have ordered.”
His last words sounded like a compliment and a complaint at the same time, but I didn’t bother to tell the difference because I didn’t do it and it wasn’t under my control, it was the police who were determined not to let Jiang Ming see anyone because they were worried that this important suspect might escape or confess.
Jiang Yunqing added, “If I could see Ming, why would I have come here myself? I couldn’t see him, so I came to save you.”
Han Kun and I looked at each other, and the more Jiang Yunqing said, the more panicked we became.
Minmin and Lao Yu didn’t understand the situation and thought it was strange that we kept asking Jiang Yunqing about such trivial things, and at such a crucial time.
Jiang Yunqing himself felt that something was wrong and asked us, “What’s wrong?”
To be honest, even when I was this close, I couldn’t believe I couldn’t see the wrinkles on Jiang Yunqing’s face, and if it wasn’t for his ID card showing he was in his seventies, I would never have believed this man was over forty years old.
But looking young, he was still an old man after all, and I didn’t know whether I should voice my suspicions or not.
Just as I was hesitating, Han Kun let out a long sigh: “Don’t go out there, let’s think of something else. The person Jiang Ming wants to kill is you.”
Many of the questions I hadn’t been able to figure out this evening were instantly figured out when I suddenly remembered the scope pointing at the back of Jiang Yunqing’s head.
Having set up such a big trap, the person Jiang Ming wanted to kill was not me, but his own second uncle, Jiang Yunqing.
Just like Jiang Yunqing said, if he could have seen Jiang Ming, he would never have come here to save us personally.
The only way to keep Jiang Yunqing from finding himself completely was to hide in jail. Jiang Ming’s move was really brilliant.
In order to ensure that Jiang Yunqing would never see him and be able to bail him out, Jiang Ming sold out so many of his men and staged a mystery so that we would take him in and suspect him of another plot.
According to normal human logic, when faced with such an important suspect, all of them would refuse to meet their relatives and bail out, and Jiang Yunqing would not find it strange.
The snatchers he had set up in the hallway were to deal with Han Kun and me, and the fact that he had moved us to the terrace was entirely to deal with Jiang Yunqing.
Because the structure in the hallway was too complicated and the robbers were too close, with Jiang Yunqing’s ability, he might really be able to fight a hundred a*sa*sins with one and clear them all out, but not on the terrace, the snipers were spread out in several surrounding buildings, even if Jiang Yunqing could fly, he wouldn’t be able to subdue these people in the first place.
The shock in my heart was beyond words, and I even felt a revolting feeling of vomiting.
Not only did Jiang Yunqing and Jiang Ming not have a grudge, but they had even saved Jiang Ming’s life countless times. If it wasn’t for Jiang Yunqing, I would have ripped Jiang Ming’s head off.
Minmin and Lao Yu were dumbfounded, unable to speak. After a long day, Lao Yu stammered and asked, “You, aren’t you Jiang Ming’s second uncle?”
Jiang Yunqing’s figure stiffened, and although he didn’t say anything, he was no less surprised than we were.
Han Kun said, “Old Jiang, if Zhang Chao hadn’t pounced on you just now, you would have been shot through the head. Your nephew’s men have been holding us for half a day, tossing and turning for ages just not killing us, waiting for you.”
“Impossible.” Jiang Yunqing said in a hoarse voice.
For a man like Jiang Yunqing, the Jiang family’s blood was thicker than water, and he could give up all moral righteousness to protect his family, not expecting that the people he was protecting would go to great lengths to take his life at this moment.
I said to Meng Meng, “Have someone bring Jiang Ming to the scene immediately. Also, have the police bring at least four squads over, with our Snow Leopard men integrated into the police force to supplement the operation.”
“Yes!”
Meng Meng was the one who didn’t need more orders from me, and after he heard my conversation, he had already started setting up the operation.
I didn’t like Jiang Yunqing as a person, but at this moment, looking at his instantly declining appearance, I also had some sympathy for him.
Han Kun patted his shoulder and said, “Let’s just wait here, the police will come over soon.”
Since we had identified Jiang Ming’s target, there was no need for us to take any chances, so we would just let the police come and clean up after these killers and then we would leave.
Although I told Meng Meng to tell the police that they must be armed, there was no actual need for it and there should be no firefight. Jiang Ming must have warned ahead of time that these killers would retreat once the police moved in, because even if only one of them fell alive in the hands of the police, it could become deadly evidence that would bite Jiang Ming to death.
Jiang Yunqing was hit hard and wilted, thinking back and forth alone with a frown, his cheeks clenched so tightly that you could see his cheeks twitching.
At that moment, Old Yu muttered, “What’s that noise? It seems to be footsteps.”
When I listened, it was true, there were dozens of footsteps that were running eat out of the chamber.
Old Yu asked me, “What are they? Could it be the security guards in the building?”
I turned pale and said, “No, it’s the killers in the building.”
No sooner had I finished speaking than the gla*s door to the terrace was shattered by a shot, and out poured seven men with rifles, all wearing black clothes and black masks, showing only one pair of eyes, pointing their guns at us in unison.
We could only slowly raise our guns.
It was over, we had a wolf in front of us and a tiger behind us.
