Chapter 163: Battle! (8K words, thanks to the readers for their monthly votes.)
Chen Hao rushed out of the nightclub regardless of everything and got into the driver's seat of the car.

Wu Lei also followed, and just as he was about to open the car door, Chen Hao immediately stopped him.

"You stay here and continue questioning! If we want to catch X, we can only use Li Xue as a clue."

Wu Lei pursed his lips and watched Chen Hao drive the car into the heavy snow.

While driving, Chen Hao took out his cell phone and called Luo Rui again, but the phone was still turned off.

He frowned, and the same thing happened when he called Jiang Dawei and Li Xueming.

Chen Hao's heart sank to the bottom and his right eyelid twitched more and more violently.

Because he was going too fast and the streets were icy in the early morning, he almost crashed his car into the guardrail.

After so many years of handling cases, Chen Hao has never been so anxious and confused.

It feels like there is a knife hanging over your head, and you don’t know when it will fall.

When he drove into the Linjiang City Police Station, he ran towards the gate without even taking out the car keys.

Because it was not yet working hours, there were only a few colleagues on night shift in the case handling hall.

Seeing him, everyone lowered their heads.

Chen Hao grabbed a colleague and asked hurriedly, "Where is Director Hu?"

The man shook his head and said nothing.

Chen Hao asked another person, but still got no answer.

He had no choice but to run upstairs and come to the director's office.

The office door was open and the desk was empty except for a gift box and a note on the coffee table.

Chen Hao walked over and picked up the note, which read: "Please pass the tea to Luo Rui for me. I owe him this."

Chen Hao bit his cheek, his eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the note.

At this time, Yang Xiaorui knocked on the door.

"Captain Chen..."

Chen Hao turned around and found Yang Xiaorui standing at the door with tears all over her face.

"Director Hu...he just left...wuwu..."

Yang Xiaorui burst into tears and suddenly squatted on the ground.

Chen Hao felt that his legs were as heavy as if they were filled with lead. He slowly walked to Yang Xiaorui and reached out to hold her shoulders.

"Don't be sad, Director Hu will be fine!"

Yang Xiaorui stood up and wiped her tears. After staying up all night, her eyes were red and her face was pale.

"Well, I'll check the surveillance right now and find the last surveillance footage of Li Xue before her death! Captain Chen, can we catch X?"

Chen Hao nodded vigorously: "Yes, we will definitely catch him!"

Yang Xiaorui sniffed, then returned to her desk, perked up, and started to get busy.

Chen Hao slowly moved to the captain's office and sat down in the chair as if his body was limp.

He tilted his head back, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, feeling so uncomfortable that he didn't even want to smoke.

The snow kept falling outside the window, and time passed slowly, and he just stood there motionless.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard messy footsteps in the corridor.

The visitor walked straight into his office without knocking.

Chen Hao raised his head and looked at Kang Bolin, who was also looking at him.

"Team Chen."

Chen Hao restrained his emotions and asked, "Didn't you go back?"

Kang Bolin did not answer, but said: "Come with me to meet Director Wan."

Chen Hao's pupils shrank: "Director Wan?"

Kang Bolin had no expression on his face, he just nodded and said, "Let's go."

Chen Hao stood up and followed him out of the office.

Unlike the deserted scene before, the corridor is now full of people. Everyone has a blank expression and walks hurriedly. Many people are carrying cardboard boxes and moving between various office areas.

Chen Hao followed Kang Bolin to the director's office and saw a tall middle-aged woman sitting on the reception sofa. She had short hair and was wearing a uniform. The meaning was self-evident.

When she saw Chen Hao, she immediately stood up and stretched out her hand: "Chen Hao? Nicknamed Green Ghost, the most capable criminal investigation team leader in Haidong Province! Hello!"

Chen Hao just looked at her and didn't extend his hand.

The woman did not feel embarrassed, but retracted her hand and said with a smile: "I am the new chief of Linjiang City Police Department. My name is Wan Mingxia. You should have heard of my name. I am also a criminal investigation officer."

Chen Hao nodded, but still said nothing.

In fact, Wan Mingxia had already given enough face. The female secretary was helping her clean up the office, and she did not sit in Hu Changyu's office chair, just because she did not want to irritate a loyal subordinate like Chen Hao.

Wan Mingxia didn't care about Chen Hao's cold expression. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Director Hu is just going to study. He's fine. I'm just taking over temporarily. By the way, Captain Kang Bolin, he is the new deputy criminal investigation detachment. He will cooperate with you. The future public security of Linjiang City is all in your hands."

Chen Hao looked at Kang Bolin, who immediately explained: "Don't look at me, I'm also a temporary member, I'm still confused."

Wan Mingxia said, "Don't worry. It's the same now as it was before. Let's have a meeting first so that everyone can get to know each other briefly."

Half an hour later, all the criminal police and logistics officers of the Linjiang City Police Department sat in the large conference room, including Wu Lei and others who were out investigating.

Chen Hao called Luo Rui several times in succession, but still couldn't get through.

Wan Mingxia first introduced herself and then explained the situation. As for Hu Changyu's name, she did not even mention it.

The police officers below all lowered their heads, staring at the table, with serious expressions and no words.

Even the applause welcoming the director was sparse.

Although many people did not dare to participate in the operation to track down X, they did not want to lose a good director.

Wan Mingxia noticed the expressions of these people. She smiled slightly and told some light-hearted jokes to liven up the atmosphere.

The atmosphere did not improve as she had imagined, so she had to start talking about the next work matters.

At this time, Chen Hao raised his hand, and without waiting for her signal, he immediately stood up and said the first words as the new director after taking office.

"Director Wan, our most urgent task now is to track down X. You seem to have forgotten that the armed robbery case that happened the day before yesterday has not been solved yet!"

Wan Mingxia's face turned ugly. She stared at Chen Hao and asked word by word: "X? Who is X?"

Chen Hao sneered. Such a big thing was all over the news on TV. He didn't believe that Director Wan would not know about it?
He looked around the conference room and saw that many police officers lowered their heads even lower.

"X is the mastermind behind the robberies of the jewelry store and the escort truck"

Hearing this, Kang Bolin moved his butt in the chair uneasily. Wan Mingxia's face turned pale: "Oh, you also gave him a code name, X? It means it doesn't exist. By the way, I haven't said anything about this. The matter you mentioned is not part of our investigation now..."

Before she finished speaking, Chen Hao immediately interrupted her and said, "It's not part of our investigation? Director Wan, it's only been two days since this happened, and X is still at large. Besides, we have already found an important clue. When the jewelry store exploded, it was a woman named Li Xue who brought her in beforehand, and Li Xue was killed by X last night..."

Wan Mingxia didn't wait for him to finish his words. She slammed the table and shouted, "Captain Chen, I know how you feel, and I know what you want to do! But please listen to me first. I just said that we will no longer participate in the investigation. Captain Chen, please prepare the relevant materials for this case. We will hand it over to the provincial department and let Zhu Yong, the general team leader, be responsible for the investigation!"

Chen Hao was so surprised that he was speechless. Hand it over to the provincial department for investigation?
Doesn't this mean that the top brass of the police department have acknowledged the existence of X? They haven't given up on the case?
Wan Mingxia let out a breath. She glanced at Chen Hao, then looked at the many police officers in the conference room and said, "Don't forget, this was all fought for by Chief Hu Changyu. Okay, let's not talk about this for now... Let's talk about other things next..."

Chen Hao sat back in his chair in a daze. Wan Mingxia didn't finish what she said just now, but everyone knew that this was like an exchange.

Director Hu used his position in exchange for the case to continue investigating.

If he had not said those words at the press conference, the person sitting in the top position now would not be Wan Mingxia.

Chen Hao had a lot of thoughts in his mind. Wan Mingxia was talking nonstop in the meeting. He was in a daze and didn't hear a word she said.

As the meeting was about to end, a police operator rushed into the meeting room in a panic.

He first glanced at Chen Hao, then walked towards Wan Mingxia reluctantly and whispered a few words to her.

Wan Mingxia suddenly stood up from her chair, looked at Chen Hao and Kang Bolin, and said angrily: "A murder case has occurred in the suburbs. A family of three has been killed. Chen Hao and Kang Bolin, you two should take people to investigate!"

Hearing this, Kang Bolin immediately moved. Seeing that Chen Hao did not move, he quickly patted him on the shoulder.

Only then did Chen Hao come back to his senses.

He followed Cumberlin out of the police station and into the car, where the latter handed him the note written by the dispatcher.

Chen Hao took it and looked at it, his pupils constricted.

It only said: A family of three was killed in Yaojia Village on the outskirts of the city, the head of the household was Yao Jun.

This was a family massacre, and the Linjiang City Police Department immediately dispatched three police cars, with forensic doctors and technical detective officers also boarding the cars.

Chen Hao looked at the note and his blood froze because there was a woman's name on it, Yao Chun.

Seeing that he looked unusual, Kang Bolin felt a little worried.

"Captain Chen, are you okay? It looks like you've been up all night. Do you want to get some sleep in the car?"

Chen Hao swallowed his saliva and said, "What nonsense! Hurry up and drive!"

Kang Bolin felt a little confused when he was criticized.

He knew that although Chen Hao was difficult to get along with, he was never someone who would lose his temper easily.

Chen Hao also felt that he had spoken out of turn, and quickly explained the details to him.

After hearing this, Kang Bolin was so scared that he didn't even hold the steering wheel.

"You mean, Luo Rui and his team went to Yao Chun's house early this morning to investigate X's situation, but there has been no news. Now, Yao Chun's family has been killed, and Luo Rui and his team have not been able to contact him?"

Chen Hao put down his phone: "Yes, all three of us have our phones turned off."

Kang Bolin said quickly: "Then you should ask the police's information department to locate them. If Luo Rui and the others are in trouble, check their last location."

Chen Hao finally reacted and quickly called Yang Xiaorui to explain the situation.

After finishing the call, Chen Hao let out a breath and said, "Hey, I really lost my mind!"

Kang Bolin advised: "You haven't rested for too long, and coupled with the matter of Director Hu... By the way, we should report this matter. After all, Director Wan has just taken office, and we can't hide it from her."

Chen Hao nodded: "Then call her."

Kang Bolin glanced at him and said, "Chen Hao, I'm not saying this. Director Wan is not a bad person. She has her own difficulties. As criminal police, we just need to handle the case well. Other things are not for us to interfere. You call her. It's like an olive branch. She will understand."

Chen Hao looked at him in surprise. Kang Bolin shrugged and said, "Don't blame me for not standing with you at the time. I was also called back by the higher-ups.

Things are always unpredictable. I just returned to Guangxing City, and I received a call from above, asking me to return to Linjiang. I haven't even packed up my office. Chen Hao, you are the most powerful criminal police captain in Haidong Province. It is my honor to work with you. Please don't treat me coldly, okay? "

Chen Hao nodded and asked, "What's Bureau Wan's phone number?"

Kang Bolin gave out a number. After Chen Hao called, Wan Mingxia fell silent when she heard what he said.

She didn't expect that she would face a family massacre as soon as she took office, and this case was related to X.

She suddenly felt that the chair under her butt was really uncomfortable to sit on.

"Chen Hao, maintain the situation. I'll call Captain Zhu now."

When Chen Hao heard her hang up the phone, he put the phone in his pocket.

Kang Bolin also felt a headache, thinking that the matter had been settled, but who knew that such an accident would happen.

Now, everyone has stepped into the fire pit.

The snow didn't stop. Three police cars drove out of the city and soon arrived at the destination.

In front of me is a three-story building. The police in the jurisdiction have set up a cordon in front of the yard. Villagers who are watching the fun are standing outside, pointing at the door.

Chen Hao and Kang Bolin got out of the car, and the police station chief and some villagers hurried forward.

"Captain Chen..." The director didn't know Kang Bolin and didn't know how to start.

Chen Hao introduced: "This is the new deputy captain of the criminal police detachment. Just call him Captain Kang."

The director immediately said, "Captain Kang, hello. The situation is like this. The person who found the body was a villager. He had made an appointment yesterday to go to the city with Yao Jun this morning. He called outside the door for most of the day, but no one responded. He ran up and knocked on the door, but found it was open. After entering the door, he found that Yao Jun's family had been killed..."

Hearing this, an old man next to the director could not help but nod his head, his face pale: "I was terrified at the time. Yao Jun's daughter, Yao Chun, had just been kidnapped because of the jewelry store and got out alive. Who knew that something like this would happen to their family again!"

The people around sighed. Everyone had seen the news. Linjiang City had been in a state of panic these days. Every citizen felt like they had a heavy weight on their hearts.

The old man couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that the robbers did it? Didn't the police chief say that there is still a bastard hiding behind the scenes who has not been caught yet? Oh, if this continues, our Linjiang City will really be unsafe. My relative runs a small store in the city, and they closed the store early these past few nights, fearing that something unexpected would happen."

The director immediately scolded him: "Don't talk nonsense, our police are not here to eat and do nothing. Haven't you watched the news on TV? Director Hu Changyu even risked his life to negotiate with the robbers. With him here, our Linjiang City is very safe!"

Hearing these words, Chen Hao felt very uncomfortable.

At the moment, the case was urgent and he had no time to think about anything else. He and Kang Bolin hurried to the door.

The forensic doctors and technical detectives have already gone in and are busy.

The sofa on the first floor and the surrounding floor were all covered with congealed blood. The body of a middle-aged man was lying next to the coffee table with two holes on his neck.

Judging from his age, he is undoubtedly the male owner of this family, Yao Jun.

He must have been subdued by the criminals on the spot, and then the artery in his neck was pierced with a dagger, otherwise the amount of bleeding would not be so heavy.

Chen Hao and Kang Bolin went up the stairs to the second floor.

There were three rooms on the second floor. One of the victims was a middle-aged woman who died beside the bed in the bedroom with a pierced heart. She was wearing pajamas before her death.

He was probably killed on the bed, probably because he rolled off the bed after being attacked.

The condition of the other bedroom was appalling.

A young woman was stripped of her clothes and lay naked on the bed.

Her hair was disheveled, there was blood at the corners of her mouth, and her head was tilted towards the window. The window was not open, but snowflakes were falling outside.

There was a dagger stuck in her chest, the blade was almost completely inserted, with only the handle sticking out.

Chen Hao had seen her photo before. This woman was Yao Chun, a female employee who almost died in the jewelry store because Luo Rui managed to escape. She thought she had survived the disaster, but she was brutally murdered just one day later, and she was a family of three.

The forensic doctor saw Chen Hao, walked up to him and said, "This family all died of sharp weapons, and each knife was fatal. The girl was sexually assaulted before her death, but the murderer should not have left any bodily fluids. I will report the details to you later."

Chen Hao nodded and was about to say something when he heard a police officer calling him.

He and Complin turned around and saw two police officers running up the stairs in a panic.

Chen Hao's right eyelid began to twitch again: "What's wrong?"

"Captain Chen, we found the bureau's car, and..."

Chen Hao squinted his eyes, trying to stop his eyelids from twitching.

Kang Bolin immediately asked, "What happened? Tell me."

The police officer swallowed his saliva and replied, "And the bodies of Brother Li and Uncle Jiang!"

The atmosphere at the scene immediately froze, and even the busy technical investigation police officers stopped what they were doing.

Chen Hao's eyelids stopped twitching, but his heart was beating wildly.

"Where are they?"

"It's on the way here. There's a forest below. Their car is in the forest!"

"Take me there right now!"

All the police officers who heard about this, except those from the Technical Investigation Division, rushed out of the house, got in their cars, and rushed to the scene of the crime.

Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei are the most senior criminal police officers. They have worked in Linjiang City for many years and everyone knows them.

When they suddenly heard the sad news, everyone felt like a heavy stone was weighing on their hearts.

A group of people got in the police car and rushed to the scene of the crime.

After getting off the car, they indeed saw a police car parked in the woods.

The car doors were closed and there were two bodies in the back seat.

The forensic doctor quickly conducted a preliminary investigation and found that Li Xueming was shot in the head, and Jiang Dawei was stabbed in the throat with a sharp knife!
Seeing such a tragic scene, Chen Hao sat down in the snow with his eyes dull.

In all his years as a police officer, he had never panicked no matter how big the case was, but what happened in these two days and one night had brought him to the brink of mental collapse.

The torn cigarette box in his pocket was unsmoked.

Kang Bolin knew that the matter had become a big deal, so he quickly reported it to Wan Mingxia.

Two hours later, Wan Mingxia arrived. After getting off the car, she saw the body lying on the white cloth and her face turned pale.

She just took office today, and things like this keep happening one after another. She really feels like she can't take it anymore.

She had just reported the situation to the provincial department. If she called again and told them about this matter, one could imagine the reprimand she would receive.

She walked over to Chen Hao and asked hurriedly, "Did X do it?"

Chen Hao raised his eyes and looked at her: "I don't know."

Wan Mingxia was anxious: "How come you don't know? Aren't you investigating X? And isn't the criminal team leader Luo Rui investigating with them? Where is he now?"

Chen Hao shook his head and didn't want to answer.

Wan Mingxia sighed: "Chen Hao, are you hiding something from us?"

Chen Hao's mind is in a mess right now, with so many things on his mind but he can't make sense of anything.

He watched numbly as the bodies of Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei were carried into the car, and then he was dragged by Kang Bolin and got into the police car.

After returning to the police station, Chen Hao locked himself in the office and did not let anyone in.

On his desk was the tea box that Hu Changyu gave to Luo Rui. He kept staring at the tea box as if he was stupid.

During this time, Yang Xiaorui and Kang Bolin knocked on the door several times, but he ignored them.

It was not until it was completely dark outside that Wan Mingxia asked someone to open the lock and brought Kang Bolin in.

"Chen Hao, I'm informing you now that you've been too exhausted from work lately and your body is almost unable to bear it. You'd better take a week off. Go home and have a good sleep. Captain Kang will take over your work for the time being."

Chen Hao looked at Kang Bolin, but the latter immediately looked away.

He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but Wan Mingxia said, "Go back, have a good rest, spend time with your wife and children, and come back to work when you have rested enough."

Chen Hao stood up and walked out of the office with unsteady steps without saying anything.

He really needed to rest, have some sleep, and then think carefully about what was happening.

But just as he walked into the case handling hall, he saw Yang Xiaorui and Wu Lei running towards him.

Wu Lei immediately pulled him to a deserted corner and said in a panic, "Master, the murder of Yao Chun's family of three, as well as the murder of Lao Li and Lao Jiang, may be the murderer Luo Rui!"

Chen Hao's expression froze.

Wu Lei continued, "The dagger left at the scene not only killed Yao Chun's family, but also Uncle Jiang. The fingerprints on the murder weapon are Luo Rui's! Now, Wan Mingxia suspects that Luo Rui is the murderer, and she also thinks that Luo Rui is X!"

Hearing this, Chen Hao was suddenly filled with strength: "Luo Rui is X? Bullshit! When the Guangxing jewelry store robbery happened, Luo Rui was still in Luming Mountain!"

After saying that, Chen Hao turned around and walked towards the director's office. As he walked, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it with a lighter, and took a deep breath.

Qing Gui smoked a cigarette and pushed open the door of Wan Mingxia's office.

……

The boat kept moving forward and never stopped along the way.

Luo Rui estimated that the place where he boarded the boat should be at the Linjiang Wharf. This river flows to Guangxing City and flows into the sea from the north of the urban area.

Half a day had passed since he was arrested, and Luo Rui's mind was becoming clearer and clearer.

The methods of this group of criminals are very professional, not comparable to ordinary thugs. From the way they dealt with Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei, it can be seen that they don't care about killing people at all. Maybe they do such things often.

Moreover, this group of people was quite organized. No one spoke during the entire journey and they remained silent. This was not in line with the nature of a normal gang.

Luo Rui thought about it and didn't know who they were.

But no matter who it is, as long as he doesn't kill me at the first moment, there is still a chance.

He tried to break free from the ropes around his wrists, but the more he struggled, the tighter they became.

This group of people seem to be very professional, they are so good at kidnapping people.

He suddenly thought of what Yuan Shi once said. He said that he had followed his father on a boat since he was a child, and he would tie crabs for fun when he had nothing to do.

Are these people fishermen?

He had thought about whether Yuan Biao was targeting him, but he could not find any reason why he would be targeting him.

What's more, Yuan Biao is a businessman and should not be so bold as to kill Li Xueming and Jiang Dawei.

Just as he was lost in thought, he heard the door being pushed open and the sound of footsteps rang beside his ears.

Then the hood on his head was taken off.

The light was suddenly dazzling, and Luo Rui blinked quickly. After adjusting to the light, he saw a burly man standing in front of him.

Afterwards, a few more people came in, led by the man with the scar.

The scarred man looked at him with a smile: "Luo Rui, guess where we are now?"

Luo Rui grinned and said, "Isn't it on the high seas?"

The scarred man shrugged and said, "Is customs so easy? I'm not afraid to tell you that we are already in Guangxing City. Someone is offering money to buy your head, so don't blame us."

"Buy my head? Then you won't kill me?"

"It's easy to kill you, but if we catch you alive, the price can be higher. Isn't it just to prove our ability?"

Luo Rui looked at the people around him. Everyone had a serious expression on their face and they were unsmiling, but their temperament was indeed different from that of the average kidnapper and murderer.

The scarred man said, "Don't look at it. We brothers are not good at making a living in China. We came back for you."

Luo Rui laughed: "I still have such a big face? I wonder who paid the price? How much am I worth?"

"Don't ask me about that! I'm here mainly to tell you about your current situation. After all, I've heard a little about what you did before. You solved a lot of major cases, so you're considered a rival. You're going to die soon, so I have to let you know about us before you die."

"Oh, you still want me to know you guys before I die? Who are you? So powerful?"

The scarred man straightened the collar of his suit: "Our hometown is in the north, but in order to survive, young people will cross the river... Did you know?"

Luo Rui understood: "I understand."

Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Can I ask who they are?"

Scarred man: "There are rules in the industry. We have to keep the identity of our employer a secret, right? Anyway, you will know it soon."

After finishing speaking, he looked at a short man and said something in stick language.

The short man nodded, and then after the scarred man and his men left, he closed the door.

Then, the short man took out a meat bone from somewhere.

He sat in a chair, crossed his legs, and began to eat with big mouthfuls.

Luo Rui now understood why they spoke so little along the way, it was because these people spoke very poor Mandarin, but they spoke the Korean language very fluently.

He looked at the short man chewing the food with relish and began to feel hungry.

He swallowed and forced himself to suppress his hunger.

The short man was chewing his meat without even looking at him.

Luo Rui said, "Hey, let me ask you something."

The short man glanced at him: "Shit!"

This was a curse word. Luo Rui had often heard it in TV dramas in his previous life. He didn't take it seriously and continued, "How much is my life worth?"

"You bastard!" the short man cursed again, stretched out his legs, raised the bone stick and wanted to hit him.

Luo Rui did not dodge and quickly said: "I have 50 million! Do you want it?"

The short man's hands froze and he looked at Luo Rui in confusion.

Luo Rui didn't know how to speak Korean, so he continued in Chinese: "I have a bank card with 50 million in it!"

The short man heard it clearly now. He threw the bone on the ground and stood up.

"You...wait, I'll go call..."

Luo Rui heard him speaking in unauthentic Chinese as he walked towards the door.

Luo Rui immediately said, "Do you want to tell others? Aren't you doing this for the money? Fifty million can keep you well fed and clothed for the rest of your life! Whether in China or in Korea, you can live a comfortable life. You can have sex with those Korean female celebrities whenever you want. You know, it's great, ten times better than chewing meat bones!"

Hearing this, the short man was moved.

He hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked towards Luo Rui.

Luo Rui's nerves were tense. He squatted on the ground, as if he was about to jump.

"The bank card is in my back pocket, come and get it yourself, but you have to bring me some food later."

The short man didn't answer, but stretched out his hand directly...

At this moment, Luo Rui put his hands under his buttocks, jumped with his feet, and pushed forward hard.

The hands that were originally tied behind the back were immediately turned to the front.

At the same time, the short man was kicked on the head and fell to the ground.

Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately started shouting, uttering a string of meaningless words.

Time was running out, Luo Rui could not care about anything else. He picked up the bone from the ground, held it tightly with both hands, and immediately walked away.

His aim was very accurate, and when the short man wanted to scream a second time, he hit him on the mouth.

The short man groaned, but before he could cry out in pain, the blows rained down on his head.

Once, twice...

"I'll let you curse and swear!"

The short man's entire head was covered in blood and flesh, and it was a terrible sight.

The bone stick should be the dog's hind leg. It was very hard and slippery in the hand. Luo Rui hit it more than ten times, and the bone stick slipped out of his hand.

He didn't dare to delay any longer, and he quickly pulled out a dagger from the short man.

He put the handle of the dagger into his mouth, lowered his head, and kept cutting the rope on his wrist with the blade while looking at the door vigilantly.

Fortunately, the short man was killed in time, otherwise, Luo Rui would have faced a group of gangsters.

Time passed slowly, Luo Rui was sweating profusely, the saliva in his mouth kept dripping from the corners of his mouth, and both corners of his mouth were very painful.

But he didn't dare stop. After finally cutting the rope, he immediately ran to the door and looked out through the window on it.

Fortunately, the short man's voice didn't attract anyone.

Luo Rui returned to the house, picked up the bone stick, and ran to the door again.

But at this moment, he saw a foam box in the corner behind the door, and there was a fire axe in the box.

He threw away the bone stick, bent down and picked up the axe.

Looking out the door again, he saw two men in suits walking towards him.

Luo Rui hid behind the door with his legs apart and his hands tightly gripping the long handle of the axe.

Taking two deep breaths, he saw a hand push the door open.

The axe fell immediately...
