Crime Fighter League

"If I were you, I wouldn't rush to silence, but think about where the missing things go." Chu Yan lazily leaned against the door, not minding that the man was slashing at him with a deadly weapon .The amount of two bottles of red wine still made his reaction a bit sluggish, and his sensitivity to danger was also reduced.But fortunately, his brain didn't go on strike, and that eloquent mouth still hit the man's Achilles' heel.

Sure enough, the man's hand holding the knife stopped, and his eyes were fixed on his face through the sunglasses, as if he was considering whether there was a trap in his words.

Chu Yan rubbed his temples, closed his eyes, and said in a frivolous tone with some impatience, "You think, maybe I have already arranged it? For example, in those detective movies, if I die, someone will Give it to the police or something."

He was just joking, and he didn't mind that these words would stimulate the fragile and sensitive nerves of the other party.

"What exactly do you want?" After a few seconds of stalemate, the man finally put down the dagger, and his cold voice was like ice cubes smashing to the ground, full of suppressed anger and unwillingness.

"It's no good for you to kill me now, why don't you make a phone call and confirm what to do? Just say - I have a condition and want to talk." Chu Yan opened his eyes again, the eyes that were still blurred by alcohol just now At this moment, it fell on the other person's face accurately, and the sharp eyes passed through the lens, looking directly at the man's surprised pupils.

"How much do you know?!" The man's voice finally became a little unsteady.

"Not much, but not too little. Anyway, this call will do you no harm. It's better than turning me into a corpse and returning nothing."

"What's your condition? Why should I trust you?" The man looked at him vigilantly. Although his tone was still tough, the looseness between the lines made Chu Yan understand that the other party was wavering.

—just a little bit.

Chu Yan stood up straight, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and smiled as if he was not a man with a knife who wanted to attack him, but a beauty dressed up in the club, waiting for his invitation.

"I knew it a long time ago..." The man pricked up his ears and was listening nervously, but Chu Yan's cell phone rang at this moment.Chu Yan paused, picked it up and was about to pick it up, when the man immediately threatened him not to move with a dagger.

Chu Yan showed an innocent expression, and his eyelashes fluttered like falling feathers with the blinking movements: "You followed me all the way just now, you should know who I met and quarreled with. He called me 24 times in succession. If If you don't answer, I'm afraid he will rush here directly."

He spoke very sincerely, and even shook the three words "Officer Zheng" displayed on the phone screen. When he woke up in the basement, he changed the idiot to Officer Zheng.The man hesitated when he saw the name, but he didn't let go of his agreement.Seeing that the bell rang for a long time and was about to stop, Chu Yan didn't know what to do, and actually pressed the answer button without permission.

"You—!" The man rushed forward anxiously, Chu Yan put his index finger on his lips and made a quiet movement towards him, but said to the person on the other side of the phone: "What are you doing endlessly?"

Zheng Shuo did not expect that the mechanical sound after listening for more than an hour finally turned into a human voice, and he almost bit his tongue in excitement: "Where are you?! Why are you only answering the phone now?"

"I'm busy. Tell me if you have something to do. I'll hang up if it's nothing." In order to stabilize the man's uneasy mood, Chu Yan coordinated his body language very well.The man opened his blood-red eyes, his hot breath boiled the surrounding air through the mask, and pointed the sharp knife at Chu Yan's chest from a few centimeters away.

"Wait! I have something to ask you. Send me your location!" Zheng Shuo was afraid that he would hang up, so he said anxiously.Hearing Zheng Shuo's words, the man's knife trembled and touched Chu Yan's coat.Chu Yan quickly stretched out his left hand and made a gesture of surrender to stabilize the opponent: "I said I was busy, so I will talk later. That's it."

As soon as Zheng Shuo yelled "No" at this end, he hung up and almost threw the phone out of the window in anger. Fortunately, Wu Jingjing confirmed it with Chen Qi in the second car behind through the Bluetooth headset, excited He almost stepped on the brake instead of the accelerator: "Boss! We have located it, and Chu Yan is in that villa!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the navigation gave a reminder as if in cooperation: there is only one kilometer left to the destination.Zheng Shuo was completely dumbfounded when he heard that, Chu Yan is in the villa?

"Look. I said that I have conditions to talk about. This is my sincerity. Now is it time for me to see your sincerity?" He shook the phone and put it back in his pocket.Seeing his behavior just now, the man really began to hesitate, mainly because the current situation has exceeded his previous expectations, and the man can no longer deal with it with certainty.What's more, if he didn't bring anything back, not only would he not get any benefits, but he would also be punished.

He didn't know how things had developed to this point, but he really didn't have time to hesitate any longer.He gave Chu Yan a fierce look, and finally took out an old push-button mobile phone from his trouser pocket, and quickly pressed a series of numbers.

He didn't dial it out, and stopped to look at Chu Yan after pressing it.Chu Yan still had that calm and composed expression, leaning his body relaxed on the door frame, showing no anxiety or tension at all.Seeing that the man stopped again, he didn't rush, just looked at each other leisurely, full of gentlemanly style.

The man finally pressed the dial button, and soon someone picked up over there.Chu Yan's breathing was closed at this moment, and various possibilities were rapidly spinning in his mind.He tried his best to suppress his beating heart, and the palms of his hands were sweating, which was covered up by him calmly.

"I didn't get the item, but he found it. Well, I know, but he said that he has a condition to talk about it. Yes, look... what now? Okay, I got it." The man hung up the phone and put his hand on Chu Yan's chest Putting down his dagger, he looked at him meaningfully: "I'll take you there now, but you'd better not play tricks."

I don't know if the other party said something on the phone, but the man's voice returned to its original calmness.He took out a coil of fishing line from his pocket and motioned Chu Yan to stretch out his hands.

Chu Yan complied obediently. Now that the other party finally agreed to meet, what he has to do now is to make the other party feel that he has no offensive power as much as possible, so as to avoid complications.

The man remained vigilant and tied Chu Yan's hands tightly.The thin and tough fishing line was tightly wrapped around the wrist, making the skin there red and swollen.The man pressed the dagger against his lower back, and the two walked downstairs one after the other.

When he was almost at the door, the man asked Chu Yan to bring the car keys.His car was parked in the woods outside the wall to avoid surveillance, and he couldn't get over the wall with Chu Yan.Chu Yan simply took out the key from his pocket, and the man took it. Just as he put his hand on the doorknob, he heard an indistinct brake sound from outside.

The man's face darkened, and he immediately lay down on the cat's eye to look at it, and then violently grabbed Chu Yan's arm and dragged it back.Before Chu Yan understood what happened, he heard someone ringing the doorbell: "Chu Yan, open the door quickly, it's me."

Chu Yan: "..."

He had never regretted knowing Zheng Shuo as much as he did now, but this thought was just going through the motions in his mind.The man was stimulated by this sudden change, he wrapped his arms around his neck, the dagger rested on his chest, and his panicked and hurried voice was slightly distorted, like a wounded beast: "You lied to me?!"

"Wait! I didn't lie to you! He may have been calling me before and ran here without answering!" Chu Yan could no longer maintain the calm state just now, he didn't know that the man saw three police cars , he thought Zheng Shuo was the only one: "Don't panic, it will be fine when I send him away!"

The man no longer believed what he said, covered his mouth and nose with rough palms, and dragged him to the basement that was not closed tightly.

Chu Yan didn't resist, and while being dragged away, he quickly thought of a remedy in his mind.But the damned Zheng Shuo outside the door showed no signs of stopping, and instead threatened him loudly: "Chu Yan, I know you're inside, if you don't open the door again, I'll kick you in!"

The man's movements were too rough, and his breathing became difficult under the brute force. The large amount of alcohol that had been poured into his body before began to ferment with the boiling of his blood. His vision was actually a bit blurred at this time, and his mind became dull.

Zheng Shuo's yelling gradually faded away in his ears. He staggered and was dragged up the spiral stairs by the man, but because the basement was too dark, he couldn't stand firmly and lost his balance.The man missed it all at once, and rolled down the stairs embarrassingly. Suddenly, he felt as if the bones in his back and lumbar spine had been torn apart, and he couldn't move due to the pain.

"Get up! Don't fucking pretend to be dead!" The man jumped down the stairs in a few steps, squatted down and pulled his hair forcefully.Chu Yan's face was pale, and he had no strength at all due to the pain in his back, but he bit his lip firmly and did not make a sound of showing weakness.

A loud "bang" came from outside, followed by the sound of messy footsteps.The man's hand stopped, and he hurriedly dragged him to hide behind the nearest wine cabinet, then picked up the folded square towel for wiping the wine bottle and stuffed it into his mouth, watching the situation vigilantly.

"Chu Yan! Where are you! Come out!" Zheng Shuo's anxious voice moved from far to near, and then from near to far, and rushed up to the second floor with those messy footsteps, stepping back and forth on the ground above their heads. .

Chu Yan leaned against the wine cabinet to pant, his wrists were tied too tightly by the fishing line, and his fingers were already numb.The constant stabbing pain in his lower back made him unable to support his upper body at all, so he could only sit slumped in embarrassment.Fortunately, the pain stimulated his brain, and he is now more awake than before.

From the sound of footsteps upstairs, it can be judged that Zheng Shuo did not come alone. Since the man panicked like this, it means that the people outside should be the police.

The police... Chu Yan quickly analyzed in his mind why the police came to the door at this time.He managed to get on the line with there, planning for so long, is it going to fall short at this time?He glanced at the person next to him. The man's back was tense like a drawn bow, and the dagger against his chest trembled faintly.Chu Yan knew that there was no way to remedy it now, and the man would no longer trust him.

His thoughts changed sharply. If he were to let the man go back now, the other party would definitely stop agreeing to contact him if he knew everything, and it would be even more difficult to investigate at that time.If the man had been caught by the police, they might have exposed their conversation just now.

Cold sweat streaked across the slender eyes, bringing a cold light.Why not...

A crazy idea came out suddenly.He froze for a moment, and immediately forced himself to calm down again.

no!If he really did this, what is the difference between him and those people? !

Chu Yan racked his brains here to think of countermeasures, and the man calmed down from the sudden panic.Now, instead of thinking about those materials and benefits, it's better to silence Chu Yan for insurance.Regardless of whether he gave things to others, at least he would save a lot of trouble when he died.

With murderous intentions, the dagger in the man's hand was quickly raised, aimed at his exposed chest and plunged down.

The accident happened in an instant. Fortunately, Chu Yan reacted quickly enough to block it with his wrist.

The four eyes met, and each of them understood the intention in the other's eyes.Chu Yan's rapid panting and pale face ignited the man's killing intent, the man stopped worrying and tried his best to suppress him.And he was already a little drunk, and he was injured when he fell down the stairs, and his hands were tied, so he was no match for a man at all.The two quickly wrestled together, violently struggling and bumped into the wine cabinet next to them, and several bottles of red wine fell down one after another.

The sound of continuous glass breaking was amplified in the basement environment, and the people upstairs finally discovered the movement here, and there was another series of hurried footsteps, accompanied by Zheng Shuo's anxious cry, and another collision from far to near It entered Chu Yan's ears.

The man knows he can't drag on any longer.He swung the knife fiercely, stabbing at Chu Yan's head and chest.

Chu Yan struggled to dodge, although he tried his best to avoid the vital points, but every time the man stabbed into the flesh, it brought out hot blood and heart-pounding pain.Coupled with the fact that he couldn't see his movements clearly in the dark, Chu Yan resisted almost instinctively. The blood from the wound mixed with the red wine on the ground, and there was a bloody smell in the alcohol, which quickly soaked both of their clothes. .
