Chapter 1238 - 1237: Hero Saves the Beauty
Such a scene made Lin Fan’s eyes contract tightly, a cold gleam flickering!
How could Lin Fan dare hesitate, he stomped heavily on the ground, cracking it as he shot out like an arrow loosed from its string!
Fortunately, Lin Fan had taken a few steps forward earlier; with his extreme speed, he arrived in front of the driver almost instantly!
As the kitchen knife in the driver’s hand was about to touch the girl’s throat, there was a sharp "snap"!
Lin Fan grabbed his wrist, giving it a forceful yank. A sharp "crack" sounded as the driver’s wrist was ruthlessly broken by Lin Fan, and he let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered!
The pain in his wrist caused him to loosen his grip, and the knife fell to the ground!
Then, Lin Fan lifted his leg and kicked again, effortlessly sending him flying, crashing into the shelving behind him, unable to get up!
Lin Fan quickly walked to the driver, crouched down, and with eyes as sharp as daggers, stared directly into the driver’s eyes, causing them to sting!
In a calm voice, Lin Fan said, "Speak, who sent you!"
"I... I can’t say! They’ll really kill my whole family!" the driver said in terror!
Lin Fan casually picked up the fallen knife, playing with it like a toy, and said, "If you don’t talk, I can take you out now. Two outcomes, choose one!"
The driver gulped fearfully, his lips trembling as he said, "If I tell you, you really won’t kill me!"
"Depends on how you behave!" Lin Fan replied!
"I... I’ll talk!"
The driver was truly frightened. If he died now, his family might not be spared, but if he lived, there was at least a chance to save them!
"I... I don’t know who they are. I just dropped someone at the hospital, and then this guy approached me with a stack of bills. He told me to wait at the hospital entrance, pick you up when you came out, and after you got in the car, I was to get down and go to the supermarket, not worrying about anything else. And he put a black briefcase in the trunk!"
The driver said in a panic, "I... I really don’t know what that is!"
Lin Fan’s sharp gaze bore into the driver. From his fearful eyes, Lin Fan discerned that he wasn’t lying!
However, realizing that his movements were exposed made Lin Fan feel heavy-hearted. It seemed that some people could no longer hold back and were starting to make their move!
Right then, Lin Fan tossed aside the knife and grabbed a rope that had fallen to the ground, tying up the driver’s hands and feet!
"Wait here for the police to deal with you!"
With that, Lin Fan turned to the girl, looking at the fine cut on her swan-white neck, like a delicate line splitting pristine jade—a true travesty!
"Are you okay?" Lin Fan asked.
The girl looked at Lin Fan shyly, shook her head lightly, and said, "I’m... I’m fine!"
"You’re bleeding, and there’s a hospital nearby. Let me take you there to get it bandaged!" Lin Fan suggested.
"No need! I’m a doctor; this minor injury is nothing, just a scratch. The bleeding has already stopped; I can bandage it myself!" the girl said simply.
Lin Fan felt utterly awkward, and with her adamant refusal, he really didn’t know what to do!
Just then, the girl suddenly extended her hand to Lin Fan, with a charming smile, saying, "Hello, I’m Liu Yu. I didn’t expect to see you again so soon after spotting you at the bar last night. Thank you for saving me!"
"It’s nothing, really. This whole situation is ultimately my responsibility, otherwise, you wouldn’t have been endangered. So, um... maybe we should still have that bandaged at the hospital, just in case it leaves a scar," Lin Fan urged.
"Really, it’s not necessary. I’m a doctor; I’ve seen plenty of small injuries like this!" Liu Yu insisted!
Lin Fan awkwardly scratched his nose, feeling at a loss for what to do!
However, just then, a sharp whistling sound suddenly reached Lin Fan’s ears!
"Not good!"
Lin Fan’s expression changed dramatically; he was all too familiar with that whistling sound – it was the same from when archers attacked last night!
Without thinking twice, Lin Fan quickly grabbed Liu Yu and leaped to the side!
With a "thump," an arrow shot from outside the supermarket, piercing through the glass, aimed straight at Lin Fan!
But, in his momentary hesitation to protect Liu Yu, the arrow grazed Lin Fan’s shoulder. The razor-sharp arrowhead cut a large chunk of flesh from his arm, even exposing the bone beneath, bleeding profusely!
Luckily, Lin Fan dodged in time, or the arrow would have pierced his shoulder!
However, Lin Fan completely ignored the injury to his arm, not even furrowing his brows – such minor injuries were nothing to him!
"Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!"...
Another crisp sound followed!
More arrows shattered the window, shooting inside again!
Lin Fan quickly shouted to the people in the supermarket, "Get down quickly!"
"Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!"...
More glass panes were penetrated by arrows, shooting into the supermarket densely, piercing the wall in front, sticking out everywhere!
Arrows continued to rain into the supermarket, embedding into walls, floors, and shelves, leaving the place in a chaotic state, with no unharmed spots, like after an earthquake!
Thanks to Lin Fan’s timely warning, the people in the supermarket quickly crouched and found cover, resulting in no casualties!
"Woo woo woo~" "Woo woo woo~"
At this moment, police sirens were heard blaring into the supermarket!
Lin Fan saw through the mirror set at the entrance, reflecting the scene outside, as he observed dozens of police cars and firefighters arriving swiftly, cordoning off the hospital!
At the same time, Lin Fan saw through the mirror the figures among the trees across the road. When the police cars arrived, the shadows hastily retreated!
