Detective Zhou frowned.
This reason does sound absurd.
However, his girlfriend works at the Cointreau Hotel.
I absolutely have to go!
"I'll go with you to take a look."
The two walked towards the parking lot, one after the other.
Detective Zhou asked questions as he walked.
"You say you can recognize the bandit just by his voice? How did you do that?"
Li Jie remained silent.
His steps did not stop, but his gaze seemed to pierce through the night, returning to that afternoon two years ago.
Bus, bomb, countdown.
The wife's face, the son's cries.
And there was the man's voice on the phone.
"People have to rely on themselves."
Then came a deafening explosion.
He is a demolition expert.
He has personally defused countless bombs.
But he failed that day.
The failure resulted in the loss of dozens of lives.
His wife and son are among them.
Li Jie closed his eyes, then opened them again.
That voice echoed in his mind for two years.
"People have to rely on themselves."
Two hours earlier, he heard those words again outside the Cointreau Hotel.
Separated by the car window, by the crowd, and by two years.
The exact same voice, the exact same tone, the exact same sentence.
Detective Zhou walked ahead, asking without turning his head.
How do you know that person is a bandit?
There was no sound behind me.
Detective Zhou waited a moment, then looked back.
The man walked on expressionlessly, his gaze fixed on a point in the void, as if he hadn't heard a word he said.
Detective Zhou withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward.
Never mind, I won't ask anymore.
This person clearly doesn't want to talk, so asking further will be pointless.
The car roared out of the parking lot and sped towards the Grand Hyatt Hotel.
The main entrance of the Cointreau Hotel.
The car stopped at the entrance.
Detective Zhou kicked the car door open.
Li Jie followed in silence.
The two entered the hall and then froze.
The hall was brightly lit.
But the sight before them made even two people who were used to life and death forget to breathe.
The ground was littered with people lying haphazardly.
Scattered guns, twisted limbs.
The entire hall was eerily quiet, with only the crystal chandelier overhead slowly rotating, casting dappled light and shadow.
The air was thick with the pungent smell of blood and gunpowder.
Detective Zhou's body trembled slightly.
He worked as a policeman for over a decade, witnessing murder scenes, gang shootouts, and the most horrific car accidents.
But he had never seen such a scene before.
No, that's not right!
Detective Zhou suddenly remembered something: a similar scene had occurred at Mingxin Hospital last time.
But at the time, he was only hearing it secondhand...
Li Jie calmed down faster than him.
He quickly went forward to check on the condition of these people, and then said.
"These people are not the same group of security personnel as before."
He had reason to believe that these guys were all the doctor's men.
For some unknown reason, they all died here.
Detective Zhou took a deep breath.
"The jewelry dinner is upstairs, let's go up right away."
He had a bad feeling after seeing so many corpses.
Jewelry banquet hall.
Many people didn't know what had happened, and they just saw the bandits falling to the ground one after another.
Just like the security manager from before.
The crowd began to stir.
The gunfire had stopped a long time ago.
Some people mustered up their courage and looked around.
Then they saw corpses all over the ground.
"ah!!!"
Screams erupted again, but this time it was the kind of screams that came from relief.
Some people cried, some laughed, and some knelt on the ground chanting "Amitabha Buddha" repeatedly.
A wealthy woman adorned with gold and silver collapsed on the ground, her makeup ruined by tears, muttering the same phrase over and over again.
"I thought I was going to die... I thought I was going to die..."
A bald, middle-aged man next to me stood up, leaning against a pillar, his legs shaking like noodles.
He had barely taken a step when he suddenly fell to his knees, his knees hitting the broken glass, and he screamed in pain.
"Someone, someone help me up?!"
No one cares about him.
Everyone is busy crying or busy laughing.
Several young people huddled together, crying and laughing at the same time.
"We survived! We survived!"
In the crowd, a beautiful young woman slowly stood up.
Le Huizhen.
Her face was deathly pale, and her hands were still trembling slightly, but her eyes shone with an astonishing brightness.
She just... seems to have seen something.
No, it's not "seems like".
She really saw it.
The moment the gunshot rang out, she hid under the table, with the camera pointed outside and the lens on.
Then she saw a figure.
Swift as lightning, light as a ghost, it flashed out from behind the pillar.
In an instant, the bandits fell like harvested wheat, one after another.
too fast.
Her camera was so fast that it only captured a blurry afterimage.
But for a fleeting moment, the figure just passed right in front of her lens.
She saw that face clearly.
Lok Hye-ching suddenly stood up, her eyes frantically searching through the crowd.
found it.
The man was standing in the center of the hall, talking to a middle-aged couple.
Wearing a dark gray suit, with broad shoulders and long legs, he seemed to radiate light as he stood there.
Lok Hye-jung's eyes widened instantly.
It's him!
That handsome guy who caught her eye at the door!
Without saying a word, Lok Wai-ching picked up the camera and rushed over.
She wanted to interview him and find out what had just happened!
"Bang!"
She had only taken three steps when her high heels twisted, and she fell to the ground. The camera flew out of her hand and slid a long distance across the ground.
Lok Wai-ching lay on the ground, watching helplessly as the camera crashed into a pillar, its casing cracking open and wisps of smoke rising from it.
she:"
'
Idiot Li rushed over: "Ah Zhen! Are you alright?!"
Lok Wai-ching slowly got up, walked to the camera, squatted down, looked at the wisp of smoke, and felt like crying but had no tears.
She raised her head and looked at Chen Yuan in the distance.
The man turned around at the same time and met her gaze.
That smile...it was as if she had known all along that this would happen.
Lok Hye-jung was stunned.
Then she suddenly realized what she was doing and turned to look back.
Where did that banana peel come from?!
Lok Hye-jung bit her lip.
This person... is strange.
Among the crowd, a man's expression was somewhat grim, shocked, and questioning of life, yet he couldn't escape the joy of being reborn.
Simply because he was the enemy that Li Jie remembered with a vengeance.
Tonight, he did not step forward to give orders, but instead mingled among the guests, preparing to appear at the opportune moment.
If things go smoothly, he even plans not to show up at all.
But now...
What's going on now?
What happened to all his men?!
Yang Ni, a hotel staff member standing nearby, glanced at the doctor with a puzzled look.
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she had a feeling that this guy wasn't very happy.
Behind the pillar, Huang Bingyao supported his wife, whose legs were weak, and looked at Chen Yuan, who seemed completely unaffected.
After a long silence, he blurted out a sentence.
"Ah Yuan, where did you pull that golden pistol out from?"
