Chapter 1374 Yun Rui Enchanting: Firefight
Gu Yunqian leaned back in his chair, pulled the corners of his mouth weakly, and did not refute - he really didn't know why Interpol would block them here precisely, but Shen Chengyu's exasperation just proved that their plan had completely failed.
Outside the car, the light of red and blue police lights flickered in through the window, illuminating Shen Chengyu's distorted face. His originally elegant suit was now wrinkled and stuck to his body, and the strands of hair on his forehead were soaked with cold sweat. He no longer looked like a business elite.
"Drive! Go ahead!" Shen Chengyu suddenly roared and slapped the driver's seat, his voice distorted by panic.
The driver was startled by his reaction and subconsciously stepped on the accelerator, causing the car to rush forward. However, less than ten meters away from the police line, he was blocked by two police cars that cut in from the side.
The harsh sound of tires rubbing against the ground pierced the sky, the car body shook violently, and Gu Yunqian's forehead hit the car window heavily, and fine beads of blood oozed out instantly.
"Damn it!" Shen Chengyu cursed and pushed open the car door. The cold wind rushed in with the sound of sirens.
Just as he was about to take a step, he saw dozens of Interpol officers in front of him, guns raised, fanning out in a circle, their muzzles pointed at the car. The leading officer shouted through a loudspeaker, "Shen Chengyu! Give up resistance! You're surrounded! Lay down your weapons and release the hostages!"
Hostage? Shen Chengyu was stunned for a second, then, as if grasping at a last straw, he turned and pounced on Gu Yunqian in the car. He grabbed Gu Yunqian by the collar and pulled him in front of him. With his other hand, he pulled a black pistol from his waist and pressed the muzzle of the gun firmly against Gu Yunqian's temple.
Gu Yunqian's body was already weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground after being pulled like that. He could only stand with the help of Shen Chengyu. The cold muzzle of the gun pressed against his skin, giving him a suffocating feeling of oppression.
"Don't come over here!" Shen Chengyu roared, his voice trembling with excessive tension, "Whoever dares to take another step forward, I will kill him! Gu Yunqian is the heir of the Gu family. If you let him die, you will see how you will explain to the Gu family!" As he spoke, he dragged Gu Yunqian back to the back of the car, trying to find a gap to escape.
The Interpol captain, Mark, raised his hands and slowly took two steps forward, speaking in a slow voice: "Shen Chengyu, calm down! If you release the hostages now, we can consider it a surrender, which will help with your sentencing! If you harm the hostages, the consequences will only be more serious!"
"Surrender yourself? Sentencing?"
Shen Chengyu laughed like he had heard a huge joke, his laughter was full of despair and madness.
"You know how much effort I put into getting to where I am today. I want them to pay the price! You want me to surrender? Forget it! You want me to surrender now? Impossible! Unless I die!"
He pressed the muzzle of the gun against Gu Yunqian's temple again. Gu Yunqian could clearly feel the cold touch of the trigger and the trembling of Shen Chengyu's fingers - this man had completely gone crazy.
Gu Yunqian took a deep breath and tried to keep his voice steady: "I can't hold on for much longer. If I collapse here like this, do you think they will just shoot you?"
He knew that Shen Chengyu was on the verge of collapse at this moment, and any stimulation might cause him to do extreme things. He could only delay time as much as possible and wait for an opportunity.
"Shoot?" Shen Chengyu looked down at Gu Yunqian, his eyes filled with resentment. "Okay, great! If they shoot at me, I'll stick close to you and use your body to block the bullets for me."
He became more and more agitated, his breathing became rapid, and the hand holding the gun began to shake uncontrollably.
"This is to give you a taste of the pain my father went through!"
The captain noticed Shen Chengyu's condition and secretly winked at the police officer next to him.
The two officers understood and slowly moved to the sides, trying to approach Shen Chengyu from his blind spot. Mark continued to negotiate with Shen Chengyu, "Shen Chengyu, I know why you held Gu Yunqian hostage. I also know there's something hidden in that case. If you release the hostage now, we can help you investigate the truth and bring justice to your father!"
"You know?" Shen Chengyu's voice suddenly rose. "If you knew there was something hidden, why did you drag the case until now?" His attention was drawn to Mark, and he didn't notice that the police officer on the right had quietly circled behind the car, less than five meters away from him.
Gu Yunqian caught a glimpse of the police officer from the corner of his eye, and his heart moved. He deliberately raised his voice: "Shen Chengyu, are you talking about the raid in the Middle East desert twenty years ago? My father said that the raid was a trap set by the 'Organization'. Your father was killed by the 'Organization', not my father! You have been used by the 'Organization' all along!"
This sentence exploded in Shen Chengyu's mind like a thunderbolt.
He froze in shock, his grip on the gun loosening slightly. "What did you say? Being used? Impossible! They had no reason to lie to me. It was your father who killed my father!"
Right now! Gu Yunqian seized the moment when Shen Chengyu was distracted, suddenly exerted force, and slammed his elbow into Shen Chengyu's abdomen.
Shen Chengyu groaned in pain, his body subconsciously leaning forward, and his hand holding the gun also deviated from the direction. The officer on the right seized the opportunity, rushed forward, and slashed Shen Chengyu's wrist with a knife.
With a "clang", the pistol fell to the ground. The police officer pressed Shen Chengyu to the ground and the handcuffs were locked on his wrists with a "click".
"We got him!" The officer yelled, and the other officers immediately surrounded him, firmly restraining Shen Chengyu. Shen Chengyu lay on the ground, still struggling frantically, screaming, "Impossible! I wasn't used! The Gu family is lying to me! I'm going to kill you all!"
But his struggle seemed extremely powerless in front of the well-trained police officers.
Gu Yunqian staggered back a few steps, leaned against the car, and gasped for breath.
The resistance just now almost exhausted all his strength. The wound on his forehead was still bleeding, sliding down his cheek and dripping onto his collar.
He looked at Shen Chengyu being taken away by the police, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions - this man, for a misguided hatred, ruined himself and the lives of countless people.
At this moment, a gunshot was suddenly heard!
Everyone subconsciously squatted down and looked around vigilantly.
Gu Yunqian looked up and saw a man in a black suit standing up from the bushes in the distance, holding a sniper rifle in his hand, with the muzzle pointed at Shen Chengyu who was being taken away.
"It's the 'Organization'!" the captain shouted, quickly pulled out his pistol, and shot in the direction of the man.
The two sides exchanged fire instantly, bullets whizzed through the air, shattered the car's glass, and splashed debris all over the ground.
Gu Yunqian was pulled behind a car by a police officer for cover. He lay on the ground and could clearly hear the "clang clang" sound of bullets hitting metal and the shouts of the police officers.
"Be careful to hide! The enemy has a sniper rifle!"
"Left! He's moving!"
"Asking for support! Requesting support!"
The exchange of fire lasted about five minutes, and when supporting police officers arrived, the Nightingale Organization members were finally subdued.
But the scene also took a toll – two officers were shot in the exchange of gunfire, one of whom was seriously injured and rushed to the hospital;
Another officer's arm was scratched by broken glass, his uniform stained red with blood. In the chaos, Shen Chengyu was also grazed on the shoulder by a stray bullet, his already distressed appearance now even worse...
