Chapter 335 - 334: Injured
Fei Erya watched as Fan Qianshu fought off so many people on his own, his hand clenched tightly, and his palm was full of sweat.
At this moment, Fan Qianshu was not in a good situation either. These people truly were as he expected, not just petty robbers. Judging by their skills, they seemed more like professional assassins.
Thinking this, Fan Qianshu’s face darkened even more.
He didn’t know who wanted his life, but...his life wasn’t so easy to take.
Fan Qianshu’s moves became increasingly fierce. Even though he was outnumbered, he wasn’t losing in terms of momentum. His reckless fighting style actually made the opponents somewhat apprehensive.
But ultimately, the enemy had more people. Although Fan Qianshu had good skills, he wasn’t gaining any advantage, and the group was in a deadlock.
But this situation was quickly broken.
The leader directly pulled out a dagger from his chest and thrust it toward Fan Qianshu.
Initially, relying on their numerical advantage, he didn’t take Fan Qianshu seriously. But he hadn’t expected Fan Qianshu to be so skilled, having received no prior intel at all.
Now, so much time had passed, and they hadn’t subdued him, so he had no more scruples. He resorted to using weapons, and seeing this, the others also drew daggers and attacked Fan Qianshu.
Fei Erya couldn’t help but cry out in alarm upon seeing this.
In the surrounding crowd, there were bursts of screams.
"Where are the police? Why haven’t they come yet? Someone just went to report this, didn’t they?"
"Yeah, yeah, it’s been a while, why haven’t the police arrived yet? If this keeps going, someone might die!"
The surrounding people discussed in low voices but dared not approach.
This group of crooks each had daggers. Knives don’t have eyes. If you’re accidentally stabbed, it’s deadly.
"Qianshu, be careful..."
Fei Erya watched helplessly as their daggers thrust at Fan Qianshu, unable to stand idly anymore.
Even if she couldn’t help in any way, she couldn’t watch Fan Qianshu get hurt, so she ran straight forward.
The attackers held no reservations and immediately regarded this woman as a target too.
At this moment, Fan Qianshu had no time to worry about Fei Erya; he was wholly focused on the people in front of him. Still, being outnumbered, he dodged all the knives but couldn’t avoid the leader’s final move.
Just as the knife was about to pierce his chest, in the nick of time, Fei Erya blocked his front, and the dagger plunged straight into her back.
Seeing Fan Qianshu unharmed, Fei Erya’s lips gradually formed a faint smile, and she said with a face full of relief, "It’s a good thing you’re okay." After saying this, she fell backward.
Fan Qianshu was faced with shock hearing these words.
He hadn’t expected this woman to care about whether he was hurt at a time like this. Did she not know that one wrong move could cost her life?
But at this moment, Fan Qianshu only felt his heart racing, making him almost unable to breathe.
This feeling he’d never experienced before; he didn’t know what it was, or why suddenly he was finding it hard to breathe, even though he hadn’t felt this way facing those assassins before.
The leader, seeing his strike fail, quickly withdrew the dagger from Fei Erya’s back and thrust it toward Fan Qianshu again.
As the dagger was pulled out, fresh red blood spurted from Fei Erya’s back, flowing into a bloody, grotesque canvas.
Only at this moment did Fan Qianshu regain his senses.
He kicked the dagger from the assailant’s hand, then glared coldly at the few in front of him, "Today, none of you are getting away."
The leader, hearing Fan Qianshu’s words, couldn’t help but laugh aloud, "I should be the one saying that. Today, both you and the woman in your arms will stay."
Just as the group prepared to continue their assault, sirens rang out from behind.
"Everyone in front, drop your weapons. You’re surrounded."
The leader still brazenly ignored this and attacked Fan Qianshu and Fei Erya again. Today, he was determined to complete the mission, else their future might not be so pleasant.
But he underestimated the police’s capability. Just as he raised his hand, "Bang..." a shot fired, hitting his wrist directly.
The leader was startled; are police now this daring, to shoot directly?
Before he could think further, more gunshots rang out, sending chills down the leader’s back with cold sweat. Instinctively, he shouted to the men behind him, "Retreat quickly."
It seemed today they wouldn’t be completing the task.
Not only was Fan Qianshu’s skill beyond expectations, but even the police today were unusual, having the audacity to shoot openly, weren’t they afraid of hitting nearby pedestrians?
No matter how fast they ran, the police behind were quicker, subduing the group within moments.
The leader attempted to struggle, but the icy gun barrel pressed against his forehead, "Don’t move, or if the gun accidentally fires, I won’t care."
Hearing this, the leader was furious; how could a gun accidentally fire so easily? This person was blatantly threatening him.
He turned to see the opponent’s dark and handsome face looking at him mockingly.
Wei Zixiao directly pointed a gun at the leader, pulling him up violently, "Hmph... In Shangjing City, you still dare to commit murder openly. Your bravery is quite impressive, bigger than mine for sure."
He said, dragging the leader to the front.
The leader of these police happened to be Gu Tingyu.
At this moment, Gu Tingyu frowned as he looked at Fan Qianshu and the unconscious Fei Erya, immediately saying, "Get to the hospital first. We’ll talk about other things later."
Fan Qianshu was somewhat surprised to see Gu Tingyu but didn’t have time to worry about other matters now. Clutching Fei Erya tightly, he headed straight for the hospital.
Gu Tingyu instructed Wei Zixiao, "Alright, take these people back. I’ll go to the hospital to check on the situation."
Wei Zixiao nodded directly, "Okay, get over there quickly; leave the rest to me."
When Gu Tianyu arrived at the hospital, he saw Fan Qianshu sitting outside the emergency room. He stepped forward and asked, "How’s the situation?"
Fan Qianshu lowered his head, face pale.
Upon hearing Gu Tingyu’s words, he looked up at Gu Tingyu, "I don’t know yet. We’ll have to wait until the surgery is done to know."
Gu Tingyu, hearing this, asked no more. After sitting down, he waited there too.
But after thinking a bit, he went outside to make a phone call to notify Yiyi.
