There were more than twenty police officers who came ashore, but the only land transportation was the patrol car brought by Shen Lan and Duan Xi's motorcycle.
So when Shen Lan came, the group got on the car, and the brothers from the surface patrol team followed on foot. But this time, Shen Lan somehow chose to sit on Duan Xi's motorcycle.
He stepped up and hugged Duan Xi's waist without being polite at all.
"Sister Lan, why don't you take that car?"
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!" After watching the motorcycle start, Shen Lan explained, "The gang of fugitives probably know that we have a lot of people and cars, so they will definitely not flee along the road stupidly, but will choose Those lanes next to it. Will big cars be able to drive in by then?"
At this time, the advantages of motorcycles being light and flexible are revealed.
Duan Xi bared his teeth and said, "Doesn't that mean that once we enter the alley, we will be the first to fight?"
"What are you afraid of? Aren't you the God of War on Ganbao Street? You killed a bunch of gangsters from the Jiangzi Camp on the train. You fought Zhao Ziyue and Thirty Bastards alone on Ganbao Street, and you just dealt with a few fugitives."
"Sister, I might have a gun!"
"Hey, these four gang of Dragon Crossing the River attacked with guns, didn't you kill two of them?"
"There is an element of luck."
"Don't worry, I won't let you risk it in vain." Shen Lan said as she stuffed a hard object into Duan Xi's belt.
A special gun for the Sheriff!
Before getting on the motorcycle, Shen Lan temporarily requisitioned the weapons of one of his subordinates.
"Let you use it temporarily and return it after use."
After saying that, she hugged Duan Xi tightly and urged him to seize the time and rush forward.
Then a rich warmth came from the back, which was in sharp contrast to Mu Rou's careful way of riding in the car.
As expected by Shen Lan, after chasing for several hundred meters, Duan Xi saw several figures entering the small alley next to them.
Shen Lan, who was behind the scenes, was familiar with the terrain in this area and said that it was mostly shantytowns in Danjiang, with low-rise houses and intricate alleys in between.
Duan Xi: "Still chasing?"
Shen Lan: "Nonsense!"
The opportunity for direct promotion is right in front of you. If you don't pursue it, you will be a grandson.
As for the patrol car with six people at the back, they could only look at it with dismay. The police officers got out of the car and followed on foot, but soon lost contact with Duan Xi's motorcycle.
boom!
A dull cold gunshot was fired, just twenty meters in front of Duan Xi!
Duan Xi's reaction to danger was as sharp as a wild animal, and he did not know how many times he had been tempered by death. The moment before the opponent fired, a sense of crisis arose spontaneously, and he urgently turned to the right. , almost hitting a low brick wall.
It was this critical turn that narrowly avoided the fatal shot.
There was also a slight "eh" sound coming from the opposite side, as if he was very surprised by Duan Xi's performance.
Shen Lan jumped out from behind, suppressing the opponent with firepower during the high-speed pursuit.
Duan Xi dropped his motorcycle and followed, and was not surprised by Shen Lan's performance. When they shook hands when they first met, he felt the calluses on Shen Lan's palms. Without years of gun-holding training, it would be impossible to form That look.
However, the movement skills were a little bit beyond expectations, because although Shen Lan's fighting strength was not as good as Zhao Ziyue's, it was still much stronger than the average person.
In martial arts, martial arts practitioners who are proficient in fighting but have not entered the Qi realm are vaguely classified as third-level combatants. Those below the third level are not qualified and can only be regarded as martial arts enthusiasts. Only those who reach the level of third-level combatants are considered to be in the martial arts. .
Zhao Ziyue is considered a stable first-level leader, while Shen Lan is at least an outstanding person in the second level.
A second-level top fighter, coupled with excellent spear skills, this comprehensive strength can be said to be very impressive.
Moreover, when she takes action, she does not let others act as cannon fodder for her, but always takes the lead. During the pursuit, she and Duan Xi were at the front, but now she rushes in at the risk of being shot coldly, and she rushes ahead of Duan Xi again.
Therefore, her ability to secure the position of director of security at such a young age is not only because of her family, the Shen family, but also has a lot to do with her own situation.
Of course, Duan Xi was not behind. After all, having a woman stand in front of him was a bit useless. So the two figures staggered up and down, covering each other, and blocked the two fugitives in a narrow alley in just a few dozen seconds. inside.
At the end of the alley is the Blackwater River, which you can jump into. But once you jump into the river, the swimming speed is extremely slow. Shen Lan and Duan Xi can beat them to death.
The two men were hiding in a gate in the alley, cursing and threatening: "Don't come here on horseback, or I'll shoot you to death!"
The alley is so narrow that even the ricochet caused by random shooting can pose a fatal threat. Therefore, no matter which party it is, no one dares to attack brazenly.
Duan Xi smiled and said: "Then just waste it, it doesn't matter if we stay with you until dawn, I'm afraid you won't dare to wait any longer."
This sentence obviously poked at the opponent's weakness.
One of the fugitives suddenly got angry and kicked the wooden door next to him angrily. This was a shanty town in the old city, and all the old-fashioned double wooden doors were installed. The door bolts inside could not withstand violent kicks.
Duan Xi was shocked: "You bastard, they want to take the residents of the courtyard as hostages!"
This is extremely vicious and extremely dangerous for ordinary residents.
Shen Lan also cursed, feeling a little anxious. Duan Xi rushed over without saying a word. Because time was too urgent, Shen Lan followed closely behind.
At this moment, there was a loud "click" and the dilapidated wooden door was finally kicked open. The two fugitives rushed in at the same time and went straight to the main room.
As for the yard where the man was forced into, the residents had just heard the sound of the door being kicked in. The male owner rushed out to see what was going on, holding a stick in his hand. There were sounds of children crying inside the house, and the sound of the female owner comforting the children. .
As a result, the male host encountered two fugitives as soon as he went out. He was forced into the house in the dark night. Naturally, he picked up a stick and went in. What greeted him was a flying kick from one of the fugitives.
The stick fell to the ground, and the man fell to the ground with a groan.
"Don't move! Cooperate honestly, or your whole family will be killed!" the fugitive shouted coldly, pointing the gun at the male host's head, who was immediately frightened and motionless.
Another gangster rushed into the room and soon pulled the hostess out. In the arms of the trembling hostess, there was a little girl of two or three years old.
At the same time, Duan Xi rushed to the door of the small courtyard without fear of death. But before he could enter, two fugitives held a family of three hostage and walked out cautiously.
"Go back, or I'll kill them!" the fugitive who held the woman and child hostage shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Calm down!" Duan Xi retreated slowly, "What's the point of holding women and children hostage?"
"Shut up, stop talking nonsense, and get back!" the fugitive roared, pressing the muzzle of the gun in his hand firmly against the woman's head, and frightened the two- or three-year-old girl into crying.
Shen Lan also followed, and when she saw that the other party was holding women and children hostage, it was clear that she was at her wits end.
"Put the gun down!" the fugitive roared.
But Duan Xi and Shen Lan didn't listen to each other this time. Putting down their weapons would not change the fact that citizens were being hijacked, so why should they put them down? Only by holding weapons can they always maintain a certain threat.
So the two of them just stepped back about ten meters and used words to comfort each other, hoping that the other party would stay calm.
At this time, the fugitive who kidnapped the male citizen suddenly said "Hey" because under the moonlight, he found that the appearance of the male sheriff who was chasing him was somewhat familiar.
No, this guy is not a Sheriff, he is Duan Xi in a Sheriff uniform!
Of course Duan Xi also recognized him. He was the gunman who escaped after assassinating Chen Ange that night and was playing cards on the Xia He just now.
"You are Duan Xi!" the man yelled. Although Duan Xi's identity was unknown on the night of the assassination of Chen Ange, he must have found out after he escaped.
Duan Xi was a little speechless, thinking that as I became more and more famous, I was attracting more and more forces.
"You are not a police officer, but you actually participated in our arrest! Duan Xi, you will die if you step on the horse!"
"You are only allowed to attack me with a gun in the middle of the night, but you are not allowed to cooperate with the sheriff in arresting you?"
The fugitive was speechless.
At this time, a burst of chaotic footsteps came, and the police officers behind Shen Lan arrived. Although they were still helpless, at least the momentum brought huge pressure to the fugitives.
"Don't even come close, I'll kill her!" the fugitive roared angrily, and even put the muzzle of his gun on the head of the two- or three-year-old girl.
As they talked, the two dragged the hostage to the end of the alley, which was the edge of the Blackwater River. There happened to be a small wooden boat tied to it. As long as they could row to the other side of the Blackwater River, it would be difficult for Shen Lan and the others to pursue them.
But the boat was too small and could only accommodate two people. The two fugitives overturned the hostage couple to the ground, and only took the two- or three-year-old girl hostage and hurriedly boarded the boat.
As long as the hostage strategy is effective, a child hostage is enough.
Therefore, Duan Xi and Shen Lan could only watch the two fugitives rowing away, gradually reaching the center of the river, amidst the couple's wailing.
"Don't bother sending me away, see you later!" The fugitive who recognized Duan Xi said with a ferocious smile, "Duan Xi, we will remember you!"
Duan Xi: "My dear friend, you attacked me last time and I defended myself. As for today, I didn't hurt you, right? It's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies!"
"...?" Shen Lan stared at the guy next to him who had no bottom line and no principles.
The fugitive did not retort, nor did he waste any more words, but just rowed as hard as he could.
"Also, don't hurt the child!" Duan Xi shouted again.
The fugitive still didn't respond, but the couple was already crying and screaming, and the man even jumped into the river to chase him. Although the residents of the Blackwater River knew more about water, it was still impossible to chase the boat.
At this moment, a series of motor sounds came from far and near, and a speedboat actually sailed on the river!
Compared with the small boats on the river, this iron speedboat is already a rough and thick beast.
On board the speedboat were a dozen armed soldiers—not the sheriff.
The naval camp of the Danjiang garrison!
The leader was a young officer, who sternly demanded that the fugitives be arrested without restraint.
The two fugitives were obviously frightened, and rowed even harder, and they were about to reach the shore.
As a result, more than a dozen guns on the speedboat opened fire at the same time.
"Cease fire, stop! They have a hostage in their hands, a baby!" Duan Xi roared from the other side of the river.
The girl's mother was so frightened that she fainted.
However, the soldiers in the Marine Battalion may not have been able to hear the gunshots, so they continued to suppress the fire until the screams after being shot came from the boat. This chapter has been completed!
