A passing traveler through the heavens
Chapter 33: The Jewelry Exhibition Ends
After properly settling Le Huizhen, Ji Lin turned to go and assist Li Jie.
However, just as he turned a corner, he came face to face with Yan Tong, who was holding a pistol with the dark muzzle pointed directly at Ji Lin's head.
Ji Lin was startled, but quickly regained his composure and forced a smile, saying, "Master Yan, what do you mean by this? Why are you suddenly pointing a gun at my head? Please put the gun down. I have important matters to attend to here and need to go back and continue fighting those kidnappers!"
Yan Tong snorted coldly, his face full of disdain, and said, "Hmph, you useless dog! I put you in charge of security here, and you still managed to make such a big mistake! What are you even capable of doing?"
Despite his anger at Yan Tong's scolding, Ji Lin maintained a smile and said, "Please calm down, Master Yan. This was indeed a minor oversight, but I will definitely make amends."
But to everyone's surprise, Yan Tong's next words caused Ji Lin's expression to change drastically.
Yan Tong said viciously, "You dog, you dare to give me attitude? Stop pretending with me!"
"To tell you the truth, I hired these thugs tonight to rob someone. The reason I borrowed your police station's resources was simply to take this opportunity to weaken that guy Lei Luo's power."
Upon hearing this, Ji Lin's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible sneer.
It turns out that Ji Lin had already used the princess to complete the function transfer before arriving at the Jundu Hotel. At this moment, every word Yan Tong said had been completely recorded by the princess.
Just then, a terrified scream suddenly came from the room—"Ah!" Ji Lin's heart tightened, and he lost all interest in playing with Yan Tong.
He flashed forward, his movements instantly becoming a blur, and in the blink of an eye, he snatched the gun from Yan Tong's hand.
Immediately afterward, Ji Lin pulled the trigger repeatedly without hesitation, and several bullets whistled out, hitting Yan Tong's body accurately.
With a few muffled gunshots, Yan Tong screamed and fell to the ground. Ji Lin stepped forward and spat on Yan Tong's corpse, "What trash, daring to point a gun at me."
Then, without looking back, he ran off in the direction where Lok Hye-jung was...
At this moment, inside the room, Yue Huizhen's delicate body was being forced back by a bandit. The vicious bandit had a ferocious face and pressed forward step by step, gradually forcing her into a cold corner.
In the blink of an eye, Ji Lin's figure rushed over like lightning.
He dodged and delivered a powerful side kick to the bandit's head. With a muffled thud, the bandit, caught off guard by the sudden blow, lost his balance and swayed before crashing heavily to the ground.
However, Ji Lin showed no sign of stopping, and then a series of swift and powerful punches rained down on the bandits' heads.
Each punch contained boundless anger and power, leaving the bandit powerless to fight back. Finally, Ji Lin twisted his hands with all his might, and with a chilling cracking sound, the bandit's neck was snapped!
Seeing Ji Lin appear before her like a god descending from heaven and quickly resolve the danger, Le Huizhen, who had been in a state of extreme fear, could no longer suppress her emotions and burst into tears, throwing herself into Ji Lin's warm and generous embrace.
Tears streamed down his face like a burst dam, soaking the front of Ji Lin's shirt.
Ji Lin hugged Le Huizhen tightly, gently stroking her hair with one hand, and comforted her tenderly yet firmly, "It's alright, it's alright, I'm here, don't be afraid." His voice seemed to have a magical power, gradually calming Le Huizhen's trembling body.
After a while, Yue Huizhen slowly raised her head. Her face, streaked with tears, was filled with gratitude and dependence.
As Ji Lin gazed into her pitiful eyes, a feeling of pity welled up in his heart.
He reached out and gently wiped away the tears that remained in the corner of Lok Wai-ching's eyes. Just as the atmosphere between the two became increasingly ambiguous, as if something was about to happen, Chen Ka-kui's shouts suddenly came through Ji Lin's earphones.
"Brother Lin, we've taken care of all the bandits and safely escorted the hostages out. What's next?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Lin's expression hardened. He carefully released Yue Huizhen from his arms, took out a walkie-talkie from his waist, and calmly replied, "You guys keep watch on the scene. I'll be there soon."
Then, Ji Lin carefully protected Yue Huizhen and followed the princess's directions to the top floor.
Li Jie was sitting alone on the rooftop, letting the cold wind blow against his body.
His gaze was solemn and profound as he quietly stared at the bustling Hong Kong Island scenery in the distance, as if he wanted to imprint it all deeply into his heart.
However, right at his feet lay the doctor's cold, lifeless corpse.
Ji Lin slowly approached Li Jie, took out a pack of unopened cigarettes from his pocket, and gently handed it to him.
Li Jie turned his head slightly, glanced at the cigarette in Ji Lin's hand, and then reached out to take it. Ji Lin silently patted Li Jie's shoulder, seemingly conveying a silent comfort and support to him in this way.
Then, without saying anything more, he simply took Lok Wai-ching's hand and turned to walk downstairs.
Li Jie watched Ji Lin and Le Huizhen's departing figures until they disappeared from sight, then slowly tore open a cigarette pack, took one out, and put it in his mouth.
He lit a cigarette with a lighter, took a deep drag, and exhaled a thick cloud of smoke. At that moment, his eyes gradually welled up with tears, glistening at the corners.
He parted his lips slightly and murmured softly, "Wife and children, I have finally avenged you..."
At the entrance of the Grand Hotel, Chen Jiaju and his team were busy comforting the guests who had come to attend the jewelry exhibition that evening, while also cleaning up the traces of the battle that had taken place inside the hotel.
Ji Lin, on the other hand, grabbed Le Huizhen and, like two little rabbits, broke through the reporters' encirclement in a flash, then plopped down on the back seat of his car.
When the reporters realized they couldn't interview Ji Lin, the Yau Ma Tei detective, they immediately turned their attention to Long Wei, who had come out with him.
You know what, Long Wei really has the potential to be a superstar. At this crucial moment, he still managed to promote his upcoming movie, "Project A."
"See? I told you I had a big story for you. Those reporters wanted to interview me, but I ignored them all. How are you going to thank me?"
"Then how do you want me to thank you?" Yue Huizhen blushed like a red apple, lowering her head and murmuring softly.
Just as Ji Lin was about to speak, Chen Jiaju interrupted him: "Brother Lin, Brother Luo and a group of foreigners are waiting for you at the police station." Seeing that he had interrupted his superior's good time, Chen Jiaju quickly scattered and ran away after speaking.
Upon hearing this, Ji Lin sighed, "Sigh, I'm afraid I'll have to work overtime tonight and won't get any sleep."
"It's okay, you can sleep after you're done with your work. My bed is so comfortable..." After saying that, Le Huizhen tightly held Ji Lin's arm and gently rested her head on his shoulder, radiating happiness.
