Chapter 421
Hearing Zachary's words, the woman trembled. Obviously, she was afraid of killing people. However, she still bent over and picked up the pistol, aiming at Laosan, but she couldn't pull the trigger for a long time.
At this moment, Third Brother had pulled out the silver needle. He covered his throat with his left hand and took out the pistol with his right hand, aiming in Zachary's direction.
Seeing that the other party was about to shoot, the woman looked again at Zachary, who was almost dead on the ground, as well as the bloody wound on his back, which was left for her to block the gun. Suddenly, courage rose in her heart, and the finger on the trigger was heavily pressed down.
"Bang!" The gunshot sounded. Laosan, who had just raised his pistol, had a huge wound on his chest, and blood gushed out. Then he fell on his back and fell heavily to the ground. There was no more sound.
Seeing this, the woman was stunned for a few seconds before she suddenly woke up. As if she was holding a piece of red-hot iron in her hand, she directly threw away the gun in her hand and quickly took a few steps back.
Her bright and clean forehead was covered in sweat, her chest violently heaving up and down, and her face was completely pale. Obviously, for an ordinary young woman, shooting someone to death was definitely something that would terrify her.
Just as the woman was gasping for breath, a "bang" came from behind her.
She quickly turned her head, only to find that Zachary had fainted and fell heavily on the ground. The bloody wounds on his body burst open, and streams of blood flowed out. Especially the wound on his back, which made the woman feel a sharp pain in her heart. Because of the spear, the man in front of her blocked it for her.
She never thought that there was a man who was willing to block bullets for her. And it was a strange man she had never known before. At this moment, some soft things in her heart were touched.
"You, are you okay?" The woman pushed Zachary, who was lying on the ground, and shouted. Her voice had already turned a little hoarse.
At this moment, a group of messy and dense footsteps sounded. A fully armed police officer rushed in and quickly controlled the situation at the scene.
The woman looked at the motionless man on the ground and did not come to her senses until a voice sounded in her ear, "Mrs. Han, why are you here?"
The woman turned her head and looked at the fat, big-eared policeman in front of her. Somehow, she suddenly disliked the term "Mrs. Han" and said, "My name is Xiao Ziqian. I'm not married yet."
The fat policeman was slightly stunned and immediately said, "Han, uh, reporter Xiao, don't move, I'll immediately call the stretcher over."
After that, the fat man shouted to the crowd, "Hurry up, take care of the stretcher. Here, first aid!"
"Yes, Director Hu!" Someone immediately responded.
Soon the stretcher came over, and Xiao Ziqian was carried to the stretcher. The fat policeman said with a smile, "Reporter Xiao, where did you get shot?"
Xiao Ziqian looked down at his bloody clothes and his eyes fell on Zachary. Suddenly, with tears in the corner of his eyes, he said, "Director Hu, I'm fine. It's someone else's blood." As he said this, she touched her cheek. The warm blood seemed to have the smell of that person.
Although Director Hu said that Xiao Ziqian was fine, he was not at ease. He hurriedly escorted Xiao Ziqian to the stretcher and was going to carry him downstairs.
The journalist in front of him was a famous reporter in Nan'an City's 'Nan's Night Report'. If it was just so, it was not enough to make the director of Nan'an Public Security Bureau, Hu Tianfu, to please him so much.
That was because this woman had another layer of identity. She now knew that Han De, a tomato from the personnel department of Nan'an City, was her fiancé. As for this Han De, although it was only a small Pinnacle, his father, Han Youguang, had started from a small Kefu, and eventually became the secretary of the municipal party committee in Nan'an City. He had been plowing and sowing for decades in the local area, and his power was very strong. Although Mr. Han passed away three years ago, the local forces of the officers promoted by the old man were still there. Therefore, even if Hu Tianfu, the director of the Public Security Bureau, met the Han family, he would also smile ingratiatingly.
Xiao Ziqian was on the stretcher. He saw two policemen checking Zachary's around and then said, "There's still aura!" Immediately, a captain waved his hand and ordered, "Cuff them together with the other three bodies. Bring them back!"
Zachary, who was on the verge of death, was pressed to the ground by two strong special policemen with his head pressed against the ground, and his hands were handcuffed behind his back. He trembled for a moment, let out a groan, and spat out another mouthful of blood.
Xiao Ziqian saw this and hurriedly shouted, "You're mistaken. He's not a criminal!"
But at this time, the scene was chaotic and noisy. She was also tired and afraid. The sound was not loud, and no one heard her call. She wanted to get up, but she was pressed on the stretcher by Director Hu and the medical staff, and quickly carried downstairs.
With the shrill siren, the police car drove into the gate of the First Hospital of Nan'an. The hospital security guards quickly cleared the place. Wearing a mask, the emergency personnel pushed the car out from the inside. The two slaps on the back side of the police car were opened. Xiao Ziqian, lying on a stretcher, was quickly carried down and put on the small pushing cart, and then rushed to the operating room.
A moment later, several other ambulances also came back. Zachary and the three gangsters' bodies were all carried down, and then several people who were injured in the mall were also sent to the operating room.
In the evening, the chaos in the shopping mall was quickly transmitted to the opposite hotel. Lauren and Qiao Xiaoxiao saw that Zachary had not returned for a long time and were extremely worried. They made countless phone calls, but the phone was turned off all the time.
They even went there in person, but the scene had long been blocked by the police. They couldn't get in at all.
The two were exhausted and returned to the hotel. Qiao Xiaoxiao was disappointed, sitting on the bed and thinking about something. Lauren was constantly making calls, using all the connections she could use to search for Zachary's information.
After a fruitless night, the next morning.
Staring at the two men with dark circles under their eyes, they almost collapsed and walked out of the hotel. When they passed by the newspaper pavilion, they suddenly stopped, and their eyes fell on the headlines of almost all the newspapers.
"The vicious gangster robbed with a gun, and the valiant female reporter was injured in a fight."
At this time, in the VIP ward on the highest floor of the First Hospital in the city, the entire ward was filled with fragrant flowers. The reporters of the major media in Nan'an City swarmed in, and the representatives who came to show their condolences crowded the corridor.
Xiao Ziqian had changed into a white hospital gown. His arm was wrapped in a thick bandage, and his head was also wrapped in a few bandages.
For this point, Xiao Ziqian was very dissatisfied in his heart. She was not injured at all, and the credit of shooting last night should not be on him at all.
But at the moment, next to her, Han De, her fiancee, was wearing a well-ironed suit, slicked hair, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and looked like she was in her thirties. At this moment, she was solemnly receiving interviews from reporters with a sad look on her face.
Listening to Han De bragging about her heroic record and extraordinary courage in front of reporters, Xiao Ziqian, who was also a reporter, couldn't help but feel disgusted and wanted to open his mouth to expose Han De's lie.
But before she opened her mouth, several medical staff of the City Public Security Bureau and the staff of the Public Relations Department next to her stared at her with a vigilant look.
Han De spoke with fervor and assurance, describing the dangerous scene last night. The brave fighting, the hero who beat the criminals to death, naturally rested on Xiao Ziqian's body.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
After another long speech, suddenly, with a "hua la" sound, more than a dozen people walked into the ward carrying long guns and cannons.
The flashlights suddenly flashed, and the large professional camera of the TV station had also been in place. Then there was an uproar outside, and the crowd gave way to a passage. With a few minds, the big-bellied middle-aged man came over. He was the leading member of the city's Municipal Party Committee.
Among them, there were the deputy mayor Li Bo and the head of the Municipal Public Security Bureau Hu Tianyou and others. Seeing them, Han De quickly got up with a smile on his mouth and said, "Mayor Li, Director Hu!" Li Bo nodded slightly, then walked to Xiao Ziqian's bed and said, "We're not here to inspect. We're here to visit our heroes."
As soon as these words were said, the scene was immediately boiling. The cameras and flash lights were crackling, and they were madly shooting at Li Bo.
Afterwards, Deputy Mayor Li, Director Hu, and other leaders expressed their respect for the brave battle one after another. Xiao Ziqian, the female reporter who had never retreated, highly praised the spirit of Assistant Director Xiao's bravery and courage to fight; praised the strict request of Director Han De and Director Han that radiation affects other people's character; and called on the government's members of the city to learn from Xiao Zizhao, so as to carry forward the spirit of South City's citizens' courage to fight, for the construction and harmony of Nan'an, and for the civilization Nan'an.
There was another round of warm applause and sounds of flashing lights.
Later, the city leaders sent flower baskets to the hero female reporter to show their appreciation and encouragement. Finally, under the gaze of the TV camera, the leaders ended the speech skillfully with a powerful wave.
The audience applauded warmly, and the atmosphere was very warm. Then, the leaders had to leave the hospital first because of official business. The whole process was followed by the municipal TV station, and the scene was very grand and touching.
Then Hu Tianhao, the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, was interviewed in the hospital hall.
"With the major armed robbery case this time, the police of the city rushed over and launched a quick attack, reducing the loss to the lowest level. They protected the country's resources and the lives of the people. The police acted decisively and subdued a few vicious gangsters to avoid more serious disasters. This was a very meaningful campaign in the history of Nan'an Public Security Bureau. It was a stroke of dark news in the glorious history of the law community of Nan'an!" Hu Tianfu excitedly made a conclusion to this operation.
