Chapter 538 Catching a turtle in a urn
At that moment, Qi Tongwei was filled with mixed emotions.
He looked at Bingbing, who was lying on the ground and was seriously injured, and the figure of Sister Qu involuntarily appeared in his mind.
Sister Qu, the female police officer whose child was abducted, has been living in pain and self-blame for so many years. The belief in finding her child has carried her through countless days and nights.
Qi Tongwei knew very well what this child meant to Sister Qu. It was the knot in her heart that could not be untied, and the longing that had haunted her for many years.
Qi Tongwei has always wanted to do something for Sister Qu. He knows that although Bingbing was in a sinful environment and had done many wrong things, she was also a trafficked child, and there might be countless helplessness and sorrow behind her.
He thought, even if Bingbing made a lot of mistakes, she was still a treasure in her mother's heart.
If Sister Qu could see Bingbing, who might be her child, even for just a glance, it would be a great comfort to her.
So, when Qi Tongwei saw Bingbing injured, his heart was filled with worry.
His eyes were fixed on Bingbing's small, blood-soaked body. Every drop of blood seemed to drip on his heart, causing him to ache.
He quickly ran to Bingbing, squatted down, and carefully held Bingbing in his arms.
At this moment, Bingbing's body was so fragile, like a leaf that could be blown away by the wind at any time.
Qi Tongwei immediately activated the military medical system to check Bingbing's physical condition.
His eyes were focused and nervous, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
His fingers slid quickly across the operating interface of the military medical system, and every movement revealed his anxiety.
As the system scanned, various data of Bingbing's body gradually appeared.
Qi Tongwei carefully checked every piece of data. When he found that Bingbing showed a great desire to survive and the bullet did not hit any vital parts, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He prayed silently in his heart: "As long as I can hold on and see Sister Qu, that's enough."
He knew that this might be the only chance to resolve Sister Qu's emotional knot and also a chance for Bingbing to start over. Even if the chance was slim, he was willing to try and fight for it.
Qi Tongwei gently stroked Bingbing's hair, his eyes filled with complex emotions, including heartache for Bingbing's injury and anticipation for a possible reunion.
He hugged Bingbing tightly, as if he wanted to use his body temperature to give her strength so that she could hold on.
He guarded the injured child, waiting for the dawn of hope.
Then, a panicked sound suddenly came from the small room where the boss was. The sound seemed particularly abrupt in the tense fighting atmosphere.
Qi Tongwei's attention was instantly attracted. He stared at the direction of the cabin and saw a car speeding out of the garage.
The car's engine roared loudly, raising a cloud of dust as it sped towards the back mountain.
Qi Tongwei's eyes flashed. He knew that this might be a trick of the enemy, but he must not let the car escape so easily.
Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and fired a shot.
This shot contained the precise shooting skills he had acquired over the years, and the bullet flew towards the tire.
With a loud bang, the tire burst. The sound was particularly loud in the silent night sky, and then the car lost control due to inertia.
After turning half a circle, it fell straight towards a big tree beside it.
With a loud "bang", the car crashed into a tree, the body of the car dented, and black smoke came out of the front of the car.
Qi Tongwei ran towards the car quickly, his heart full of vigilance.
When he approached the car and took a closer look, he found that his boss was not in the car.
His brows furrowed tightly as he thought to himself, "Could it be a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
Qi Tongwei's brain was working fast, he knew that he couldn't be fooled by the enemy's tricks.
He immediately activated his radar detection ability, one of the skills he relied on to survive countless dangerous missions.
His eyes became focused and deep, as if he could see everything hidden through the ground.
As the radar waves spread, the surrounding environmental information appeared in his mind in a special way.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he found that he had detected two mechanical pistols underground, and the two guns were still moving.
Qi Tongwei understood instantly that the boss must have escaped through the underground passage, and the two moving mechanical pistols were most likely weapons carried by the boss or his bodyguards.
A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he thought to himself: "It's not that easy to slip away from under my nose."
Qi Tongwei followed the direction of the mechanical pistol and quickly chased towards the entrance of the underground passage.
He shuttled through the night. He knew that he had to catch up with his boss as soon as possible and not let the source of this evil escape, otherwise all his previous efforts would be in vain and the abducted children and victims would not get true justice.
At this time, the base was in chaos, like a hornet's nest that had been poked.
Those thugs who resisted stubbornly originally wanted to fight against the military with their ferocity and weapons in their hands.
They hid in every corner, with ferocity and despair in their eyes, shooting madly at the military. Bullets whizzed through the air, leaving bullet holes on the walls.
However, as the battle continued, they gradually saw the huge gap in strength between the two sides.
The military's firepower was like a surging tide, one wave after another, and the coordination was tacit and the tactics were rigorous.
In comparison, they are like loose sand, with no organization or discipline at all.
Many thugs began to retreat in their hearts, knowing that continuing to resist would only lead to death.
Then, one of the thugs threw away his weapon first, raised his hands high, and shouted loudly: "I surrender! I surrender!"
His voice seemed particularly abrupt in the chaotic battlefield.
When the other thugs heard his shouts, they all looked sideways, and when they saw that he was not killed immediately after surrendering, they began to waver.
Immediately afterwards, several more thugs threw away their weapons, walked out of the bunker and announced their surrender.
As more and more people chose to surrender, the thugs who were still resisting became panicked.
Hesitation and fear began to appear in their eyes, and the guns in their hands were no longer as steady, accurate and ruthless as before.
Among them, there are still a few people who are the most stubborn and are still fighting their final duel.
They were unwilling to fail like this, and still held on to a glimmer of hope, fantasizing that they could create a miracle and fight their way out.
However, they watched helplessly as their fellow rebels were shot in the head by the military.
The bloody scene completely broke down their psychological defenses.
Every gunshot and every fallen figure of an accomplice was like a heavy blow, hitting their nerves.
They knew very well that their lives were so fragile in the face of the military's precise marksmanship. In the end, these diehards laid down their weapons and slowly raised their hands to surrender.
Seeing that most of the thugs had been dealt with, the situation in the entire base was basically under control.
Now all that’s missing is the trump card in Qi Tongwei’s hand, but there’s been no news from Qi Tongwei yet.
Hao Shizhong stood in the command position, feeling a little anxious.
He knew Qi Tongwei's importance in this operation, and that the enemy Qi Tongwei was facing now was probably the most dangerous.
Hao Shizhong picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered the snipers to look for Qi Tongwei.
After receiving the order, the snipers took action quickly.
They scanned every corner of the base with their sharp eyes, not missing any place where people might be hiding.
Their sniper scopes moved in all directions, trying to find Qi Tongwei.
However, Qi Tongwei's camouflage skills are not comparable to those of ordinary special forces.
He blended in perfectly with the surrounding environment. The snipers searched for a long time but couldn't find even two hairs of Qi Tongwei.
They searched the base again and again, and finally had no choice but to report to Hao Shizhong that they had found no trace of Qi Tongwei.
After hearing this, Hao Shizhong became even more worried. He didn't know where Qi Tongwei was now and whether he was facing great danger.
At this moment, a determined fighting spirit surged in Qi Tongwei's heart. Since these guys wanted to play this trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain, he would accompany them to the end and have a good time with them.
There was a calmness and confidence in Qi Tongwei's eyes as he moved forward quickly along the tunnel dug by the enemy.
The passage was dark and damp, filled with a foul smell. Water droplets dripped from the walls from time to time, and the dripping sound echoed in the silent passage, as if it was a countdown to death.
Qi Tongwei walked carefully without making any sound.
He is always alert to possible dangers.
Qi Tongwei walked along the passage and found a small house in the forest three kilometers away.
This small house is hidden in the dense woods and surrounded by weeds. It is difficult to find its existence if you don’t look carefully.
The house was located on a mountain, in a very hidden location, and was not exactly where the army was ambushing.
This was obviously a hiding place carefully chosen by the enemy. They thought they could avoid the military's pursuit by hiding here. They really underestimated Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei sneaked into the small house quietly. After confirming that there was no other danger, he found a chair and sat on it, holding his gun leisurely.
His movements seemed relaxed and casual, but in fact he was full of confidence, as if everything was under his control.
Suddenly, he heard a rustling sound, which sounded like someone moving cautiously, or like small animals running through the grass.
Next, there was the sound of several people talking. The voices were very low, but in this quiet environment, they could still be clearly heard by Qi Tongwei.
"Be careful and don't make too much noise."
A voice said in a low voice.
"I see. This damn place is really dark."
Another voice complained.
At this moment, there was a "bang" sound, as if someone accidentally bumped into the wooden board.
Accompanied by a curse: "You idiot, be careful!"
Qi Tongwei keenly felt that the floor under his chair seemed to move, as if something had hit it from below.
He knew in his heart that these people were right under his feet, trying to escape from the tunnel or find a new hiding place.
The corners of Qi Tongwei's mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.
He sat motionless, like an ancient statue, quietly in the chair.
He knew that these people were trapped in a jar, and he could catch them all at any time if he wanted to.
What he has to do now is to wait for the best opportunity to give these evil people an unexpected blow.
There was a depressing atmosphere in the underground passage.
Those people seemed to be getting more and more anxious at this moment. The sound of their banging on the floor became more and more rapid. Every impact carried with it their inner anxiety and uneasiness, and their strength became stronger and stronger, like a trapped animal in a cage making its last struggle.
"Fuck you! I told you guys to come check it out regularly, but you didn't. Is the door hinge rusted shut now?"
One of them roared angrily, his voice echoing in the narrow passage, thick with frustration and blame. His forehead was covered with sweat, which slid down his cheeks and gleamed in the dim light.
"Who could have imagined this would happen? This damn place hasn't been used in years."
The other person argued, his voice carrying a hint of grievance, but more of anxiety.
His eyes darted around in the darkness, trying to find a solution to the problem, and his hands kept groping around, hoping to find something.
"Is it blocked by something?"
Another person raised his question, his voice trembling and his breathing becoming rapid.
He bent his body and moved with difficulty in the narrow space, trying to check the situation around him, but the passage was so dark that he could not see his hand in front of his face. Apart from being able to sense the presence of his companions, he could not see anything.
"Shoot up and knock the planks loose."
A seemingly reckless guy shouted, his voice full of urgency.
This proposal made others hesitate. After all, they didn't know the situation above. If they fired blindly, it might cause greater trouble.
"Isn't this too risky? What if there are enemies up there?"
A more cautious person said worriedly.
"What else can we do? If we don't open fire, we'll all suffocate to death here!"
The rash man retorted impatiently.
Several people stood there in the darkness for a while, the only sounds in the passage were their heavy breathing and the occasional sound of bodies colliding.
Their hearts felt like they were being burned by a raging fire, and every second of waiting was like torture. The fear of the unknown and the anger at being trapped intertwined, bringing their emotions to the brink of collapse.
Qi Tongwei calmly activated his danger warning perception skill. At that moment, he seemed to be able to sense the direction and trajectory of the incoming bullet.
When the other party fired upwards in the underground passage, his body easily dodged the bullets.
Every bullet passed by him without causing any harm to him.
Qi Tongwei lowered his head slightly, his eyes fixed sharply on the ground below.
At this moment, he saw an eye looking up through the muzzle of the gun, the eye was full of fear, confusion and a hint of ferocity.
It was a narrow field of vision, and I could only see one of the other person's eyes, but I seemed to be able to feel the other person's complex emotions from it.
A faint sneer appeared on Qi Tongwei's lips. He squatted on the ground calmly, keeping his body in a posture ready to counterattack at any time.
His eyes were also fixed on the muzzle of the gun, as if he was engaged in a silent battle with that eye.
"hello."
Qi Tongwei's voice was calm yet with a hint of teasing, which seemed particularly abrupt in this tense atmosphere of confrontation.
His voice traveled down the barrel of the gun, echoing in the underground passage. The owner of the eye was obviously startled by Qi Tongwei's sudden voice, his eyes widened instantly, and his pupils contracted.
He never expected that after he fired the gun, he would receive such a calm greeting from above.
His body trembled slightly in the passage, not sure whether it was because of fear or nervousness.
Qi Tongwei continued to stare at that eye. He could feel the other party's hesitation and helplessness.
In this narrow space where the guns were facing each other, Qi Tongwei was waiting for the other party's next move, while also thinking about how to catch all these people in one fell swoop and completely end this evil game.
