Chapter 286 - 284: Successfully Escaping Danger
"Bang!"
With a crisp sound, the gun in Pan Shi’s hand was knocked away, and at this moment Zhao Bing and Zhang Yufei also realized the danger. They hurriedly got up and saw a man about to pick up the gun on the ground; the two of them sprinted over to stop him.
Earlier, Chen Tianlong had been hiding behind the car and seized the moment to throw his empty handgun, precisely knocking away the opponent’s gun.
Only then did he take a deep breath, knowing that the situation was basically under control.
In Chen Tianlong’s view, with Zhao Bing and Zhang Yufei’s skills, no matter how inexperienced, they could still hold their own against that man. After all, both were military school experts.
Taking advantage of the free moment, Chen Tianlong began taking deep breaths, reciting the mantra taught by his father. Whenever he recited it after getting injured, his condition would improve.
On the surface, his injuries seemed severe, but he knew he was actually fine. It was just that the Qi in his Dantian was a bit disturbed from an intense impact, needing gradual regulation.
Facing two opponents, Pan Shi, though strong, ultimately couldn’t gain the upper hand. Meanwhile, Zhang Yufei and Zhao Bing were tough opponents, still full of vigor after over ten minutes of fighting, with no clear winner.
Just then, the sound of police sirens came from not far away. Pan Shi knew he couldn’t stay longer. After some thought, he took a smoke bomb from his pocket, threw it on the ground, and quickly ran back to the car, speeding off in a flash.
Originally, Zhang Yufei wanted to give chase, but seeing both men inside and outside the car injured, the urgent need was to get them to a hospital, so she gave up on the pursuit.
In no time, the police cars reached them, and knowing it was the chief and the captain, the officers quickly gathered around.
"Chief, Captain, are you both okay?"
Officer Li Jun, after finishing things at the school, arrived with a dozen team members and asked worriedly upon seeing the two leaders.
"I’m fine, but the chief got shot in the arm. He needs to go to the hospital to have the bullet removed and the bleeding stopped, and this student, Chen Tianlong, seems to be internally injured. I’m planning to take them to the hospital."
Zhang Yufei didn’t delay further, directly helping the two onto the car.
The remaining police captured the injured criminals on the ground and took them back to the police station. This conspiracy clue could only be pursued starting with this person.
Zhao Bing half-lay in the car, his heart full of frustration. Huang Ziyan had been kidnapped; it wasn’t simple. The people earlier were obviously familiar with the specifics of South Sea No.1 Middle School. Otherwise, they couldn’t have precisely grabbed someone from the skylight.
Moreover, before the incident, it was clear that the power was deliberately shut off.
Logically, after the fan meeting started, the personnel he arranged would be patrolling, especially around the power supply area. He assigned two people to guard it and instructed that anyone without an invitation couldn’t enter the school.
This means that no matter how skilled the criminals were, escaping his meticulous arrangement wasn’t possible.
The remaining possibility was that internal staff at the school were assisting; students were involved in this conspiracy. Only students or teachers could make the officers so unsuspecting.
After taking a deep breath, Zhao Bing closed his eyes. The kidnapping of Huang Ziyan would likely alarm the government by the next morning, and their police station would be in hot water.
This security mishap led to a celebrity kidnapping, and now her fate is uncertain.
Chen Tianlong quietly closed his eyes. On one hand, he was using Qi cultivation to regulate his internal Qi. On the other, he was recalling everything that had happened before.
It was the same Hummer, and it had appeared in that corner before. He recognized the person; it was a friend brought by Hao Jian.
Although it was dark tonight, and those people wore black masks, making it impossible to tell who they were, Chen Tianlong was different. To see their faces clearly during the chase, he specifically focused on them, and it was indeed Zhou Qianghan and others inside.
This meant the kidnapping of Huang Ziyan was related to Hao Shuai.
However, without evidence now, Chen Tianlong couldn’t directly tell Zhao Bing and Zhang Yufei; that would only alert the enemy. After thinking it over, Chen Tianlong felt that he had to deal with this himself.
A speechless night passed, and Chen Tianlong spent the night in the hospital. After a full examination, his body wasn’t facing any major issues, just some muscle strain on his back needing some time to heal.
These strained muscle issues were nothing to Chen Tianlong; during his specialized training as a child, such occurrences were frequent.
So early in the morning, Chen Tianlong was discharged from the hospital. He needed to make a trip to the Hao Family.
However, Chen Tianlong’s visit to the Hao Family wasn’t a social call but surveillance around their community. As expected, at around nine o’clock, a black BMW slowly drove out of the Hao Family Mansion.
Upon close inspection, Chen Tianlong saw Xu Wei inside alone, likely heading to carry out some sneaky business.
After Xu Wei’s car drove about fifty meters away, Chen Tianlong’s black Audi started. He couldn’t follow too closely, but he wasn’t worried in the slightest about Xu Wei getting away.
After half an hour of tracking, Xu Wei entered a relatively rough road, which was a section of yellow dirt road, causing clouds of dust as the car passed.
Chen Tianlong sighed, realizing that after this trip, he’d have to wash his X6 again. Otherwise, his black car would turn yellow.
In places like this, keeping a two-hundred-meter distance meant that someone as careless as Hao Jian wouldn’t notice being followed.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Tianlong had tracked to a somewhat rundown training field and immediately stopped his car.
He couldn’t continue following, as it would make him easily discovered. In such a secluded place, even if he was naive, he had watched enough TV shows to know better.
Judging by the setup, this must be a location used by underground organizations for training or meetings.
So, Chen Tianlong looked around and noticed a small forest nearby with dense trees. After some thought, he drove his car inside.
In such places, the sudden appearance of a car would surely arouse suspicion. If the people from last night were really in the training camp, he’d be in deep trouble, and his car would be gone.
After covering his X6 entirely with tree branches, Chen Tianlong let out a faint smile, starting to walk ahead. Roughly at fifty meters from the field, he darted into the nearby woods, intending to enter from the side. He couldn’t use the main entrance.
He wasn’t there to challenge anyone; this was clearly a hideout of the Xu Family. Otherwise, Xu Wei wouldn’t confidently go in like that.
Having grasped all this, Chen Tianlong planned to climb over the outer walls. Initially, he thought about informing Zhao Bing, but then, considering the possibility the criminals might not even be there, causing trouble without reason wasn’t wise.
