I Have A Dual World Seal

"Swish!"

The blinds were pulled open, and Zhao Xiaodao appeared at the window. The scene inside the room also came into the sniper’s view across the street.

What happened next was simple.

The police entered to clean up, paramedics issued forms to the four women and helped them onto ambulances, taking them to the hospital for examination.

Journalists, of course, were blocked; they were victims and had suffered extreme trauma physically and mentally at this time. How could they accept interviews?

However...

Even before Zhao Xiaodao and the others reached the hospital, a few-minute video started spreading virally on the Internet.

Because this video account also @mentioned the local police, the local police and journalists saw the video at the first opportunity.

"What!?"

"This can’t be..."

The content of the video was shocking, directly overturning people’s perceptions and even making the first reaction that it was a fake video, a promotional clip for some movie, a publicity stunt.

...

Lu Zheng and Lin Wan still hadn’t appeared, but just to be safe, they didn’t go back. Instead, they found a nearby bubble tea shop and ordered two cups of bubble tea. They were relaxing while following the hospital affairs.

Soon, Zhao Xiaodao and the others were sent to the hospital. After a preliminary examination judged there was nothing seriously wrong, they were placed in beds in the inpatient department.

It was only then that the crew arrived at the hospital and found them.

Then they saw the police were also in the room, taking statements from everyone.

The assistant and two makeup artists were in one room, while Zhao Xiaodao was alone in another ward.

"That Second Brother is from Hua Country, hmm, should have been from Hua Country in the past."

"Yes, yes, Sister Xiaodao hoped they could let us go and leave only her, but those people refused."

"That Second Brother wanted to film a ticket tearing video and came to pull me. I was scared to death, but Sister Xiaodao stood in front of me."

"Sister Xiaodao unleashed her might and took down all five people by herself!"

"What? How did she take them down? It all happened in such a flash, this way and that way, and then she tossed a knife out!"

"No gunshots were fired; Sister Xiaodao just rushed up and struck a few times, and then those people fell."’

"We were all scared to death!"

As the assistant and two makeup artists recounted the previous events to the police.

In the separate ward, Zhao Xiaodao also described what happened from start to finish.

Of course, her account was much more detailed than that of the assistant and others and included her analysis of the situation at the time.

"At first, they all had guns, so I didn’t dare resist and worried others might get hurt."

"We are all weak women, so they were unafraid, didn’t pay special attention to us, and were not afraid of us resisting."

"Later, I could only look for opportunities and try to lower their alertness."

"Yes, I hoped they would let the other three go. After all, my identity was of the highest profile, at least safer than theirs."

"At that moment, I wasn’t sure I could succeed in resisting, but I had to try."

"The leader wanted to shoot a video, and at that time there were five of them, three had put down their guns, two came closer to me. If I didn’t act, Xiao Xi might get hurt."

"I was very scared then, but luckily, I succeeded."

"I didn’t think about anything at that time, just let my body react on instinct."

"Yes, I know several very skilled friends who train me occasionally for safety, as I film all year and often go abroad, they worry."

"There’s some physical training, then skills, and ways to exert force, and of course, choosing striking positions."

"But my strength is limited, so I could only aim for the throat, and then use body weight to target joints and the like."

"By the way...did they...die?" Zhao Xiaodao asked cautiously.

As a professional actress, of course, the police couldn’t tell Zhao Xiaodao was acting.

The few questioning officers exchanged looks, and a nearby female officer responded, "No, their throat injuries were not serious, and they received timely medical attention, there’s no danger to life."

Zhao Xiaodao lay back, feigned relief with a pat to her chest, showing hindsight fear, "Good thing no one’s dead..."

"They’re demons; your actions were self-defense. Even if you killed them, it’s okay." The officer couldn’t help but say.

Zhao Xiaodao nodded, then shook her head, "But they should face legal consequences."

The officer didn’t understand, but Lu Zheng and Zhao Xiaodao certainly did. As a celebrity, how could she hold human lives in her hands?

Acting courageously in crisis is one thing, directly killing on site is another.

Once the event passes, after passions cool, people may not remember the causes and details but will remember how many lives were in her hands.

Human lives make the most attention-grabbing headlines, and if someone starts spinning the story, it could be troublesome.

Without the keyword ’lives’, the most explosive story is Zhao Xiaodao heroically fighting five armed thugs, rescuing herself and three hostages.

Details like throat breaking, knife throwing, disarmament, low sweeping kick, and powerful hip strike won’t be murder details but part of the story’s color.

As for the police...they naturally once again became the scapegoats and part of the backdrop!

But since it’s abroad, backdrop it is. Besides, it was initially due to their negligence that this entire aftermath occurred.

"So, is the video real?" The officer asked incredulously.

"What video?" Zhao Xiaodao asked.

The officers exchanged looks again, then the female officer took out her phone, opened an app, selected favorites, opened a video, and handed it to Zhao Xiaodao.

Zhao Xiaodao took the phone and saw the full view of the room, five armed assailants, and four hostages huddled in a corner.

And herself, standing at the forefront, with one hand protecting the assistant and the other the makeup artist.

"What...what are you doing..."

The assistant’s voice sounded from the phone, as everything from the scene unfolded.

"Was it filmed on video?"

Zhao Xiaodao asked surprised, then nodded, "Yes, they said they wanted to shoot a video, it’s natural it was recorded...but huh?"

Zhao Xiaodao suddenly realized the Huadian, "Why are there likes and comments?"

Zhao Xiaodao subconsciously clicked the video, exited fullscreen mode, and realized it wasn’t in the photo gallery but an app.

"This is..."

The female officer pursed her lips, helplessly saying, "This is the video those people uploaded online, you’ll understand when you finish watching."

"Uploaded online, how is that possible?"

Zhao Xiaodao looked baffled, then continued watching the video on the phone.

The video was shot clearly, with excellent angles, capturing almost the full scope of the incident.

Seeing herself unleash her might, Zhao Xiaodao couldn’t help but feel a rush of adrenaline again.

Finally, she slapped the last person, who then knocked over the phone stand, showing his face and nose on camera, before the screen went black and the video ended.

Zhao Xiaodao looked up, asking speechless, "Did he inadvertently upload the video with his face?"

"Strictly speaking, it was his nose."

Zhao Xiaodao, "..."
