Seeing the Hong Kong police appear at the street corner, Jiang Xia's heart tightened, and she turned away immediately without checking the injury on her arm. However, the moment she turned around, the police also found her.

"Miss, please wait a moment!" the police officer shouted.

Jiang Xia was shocked, but she did not dare to stop. She knew that if she was caught by the police, it would be difficult to explain her identity and behavior.

She couldn't let them see the gun in her hand, let alone let them know that she had just fired a shot.

"Stop! Otherwise we will take action!" the police continued to shout.

Jiang Xia quickened her pace, she had to escape from this place as soon as possible.

There were urgent whistles behind her, and the police officers had already started chasing. Jiang Xia's heartbeat became more and more intense, and she ran desperately, hoping to find a safe hiding place.

The main road was obviously not very convenient, so there was a narrow alley not far ahead. Jiang Xia rushed in without hesitation and dodged deep into the alley.

The alley was dark, damp, and filled with a foul smell.

Jiang Xia walked forward carefully, trying to avoid making any noise. She didn't know where this alley led to, but at the moment, she could only choose to trust that it would lead her away from danger.

Every step was filled with tension and fear, and Jiang Xia's heart was in her throat. She prayed that she would not encounter any more troubles and only hoped to escape successfully.

Due to lack of familiarity with the road conditions, Jiang Xia quickly got lost in the intricate alleys.

She was a little confused and had no idea where she was.

However, the police officers behind continued to pursue him, and the footsteps became clearer and clearer, as if they were echoing in his ears.

Jiang Xia's heart tensed up instantly, and he rushed to a nearby corner without hesitation, quickly squatted down and hid himself.

At this moment, a window on the second floor opposite the corner where she was hiding suddenly opened, and a figure leaned out of the window, waving his arms at her and shouting in a low voice: "Hey, come over here quickly, there are stairs here!"

Jiang Xia suddenly raised his head and looked at the man.

Due to the dim light, she couldn't see the other person's face clearly, but his deep and attractive voice made her feel inexplicably at ease.

Without thinking too much, she immediately stood up and ran in the direction the man pointed.

After a few steps, she successfully reached the second floor, and the man had already opened the door, waiting for her arrival.

After she stepped into the room, the man quickly closed the door and walked to the window with her, watching closely the movements in the alley outside.

At this time, the police officers had already caught up with the man. They watched him enter the building next door, then stopped downstairs and went upstairs one after another.

Jiang Xia took out his pistol with a nervous look on his face, walked to the door and stood guard behind it.

The man looked at Jiang Xia's actions, but he was not surprised at all. Instead, he showed a playful smile and said softly, "Miss, don't be so nervous. These cops won't take you so seriously. Just deal with them casually and it will be over."

Jiang Xia did not respond, but just glanced at the man indifferently, holding the gun handle tightly in his hand, his eyes full of vigilance.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. The man made a gesture to Jiang Xia to keep quiet, then pointed to the bathroom room, indicating her to hide in it.

After Jiang Xia entered the room, he opened the door calmly and said calmly, "What's the matter, Sir?"

"Have you seen a woman with an injured arm?" the police officers asked seriously.

"I was sleeping in the house the whole time and didn't see any woman." The man shrugged and answered very naturally.

The police officer peeked inside but didn't enter the room. "If you find anything, call the police right away. That woman has a gun and is very dangerous, you know!"

"Okay Sir, take care!"

After closing the door and hearing the police officers leave, the man returned to the room, walked to the bathroom door, and knocked: "Okay, everyone has left, you can come out now."

The bathroom door was pushed open with a slight sound, and Jiang Xia slowly walked out. Her face was as pale as paper, bloodless, and beads of sweat still appeared on her forehead.

"Thank you for saving me!"

The man smiled carefreely, revealing a row of neat white teeth, and shrugged: "You're welcome, we're all from the same world, we just help when we see injustice. Let me introduce myself, my name is Mark Lee, I don't know what your name is."

Jiang Xia did not answer the man's question, but silently took out her wallet from the bag she was carrying. She carefully opened the wallet, took out all the banknotes inside, and then gently placed them on the table next to her.

After doing all this, she turned around and prepared to leave the place.

"Hey!"

Suddenly, a voice was heard. Jiang Xia stopped, looked back, and looked coldly at the man in front of him.

The man didn't seem to notice Jiang Xia's indifference. He smiled slightly, pointed out the window and said, "The cops outside haven't gone far yet. It's too dangerous for you to go out now. And judging from your appearance, your arm is still bleeding! Wait a moment. It won't be too late to leave after they are far away."

After saying that, the man turned around and walked towards the cabinet and began to search. Soon, he came back with a bottle of alcohol, some medicines and a roll of gauze.

"Please sit down. I'll help you treat your wound first." The man said softly.

Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. She obediently walked to the sofa and slowly sat down.

The man carefully uncovered the clothes on Jiang Xia's arm, examined the wound carefully, unscrewed the bottle cap, and poured alcohol on the wound. The strong stimulation made Jiang Xia tremble uncontrollably, but he forced himself not to make a sound.

Mark Lee's movements seemed very skillful. He first poured the powder evenly on the wound, then covered it gently with cotton, then carefully wrapped it with gauze, and finally did not forget to tie a small bow on it.

Feeling the kindness released by Mark Lee, Jiang Xia's guard was slightly lowered: "Thank you!"

"Don't be so polite. I don't have the necessary tools here, so I can only bandage it. You should find a place to sew it up later."

Jiang Xia nodded slightly to show his agreement: "I see, thank you, my name is Jiang Xia!"

"Hahaha, I thought you would hide your name from me!" After Mark Lee packed up the used items, he took out two bottles of beer from the refrigerator and handed one to Jiang Xia.

"Why are you being chased by these cops?"

"Actually, it's nothing big, it's just a shot!" Jiang Xia replied lightly.

"I never thought you were so resilient. Facing the severe pain of washing your wound with alcohol, you didn't even scream. It's really admirable!"

Then the two chatted idly. Jiang Xia was not interested in other people's past. After all, they were strangers he had just met, and there was really nothing to talk about.

After all the Hong Kong police outside had left, Jiang Xia put down his beer and stood up: "I'm leaving!"
