Balancing

Gu Tao is having a headache right now. In front of him, the two people sitting in his office with their backs stiffened, have the same goals, the same intentions, and even their sitting postures and facial expressions are in sync——

Pointing at Jian Ming.

"Captain Gu, please be considerate and considerate of me. If you know about Jian Ming, you can tell me, and I promise not to cause trouble. I just..." Jiang Luchuan sighed heavily, "I just came back from a business trip and saw him tell me I left a letter saying what I was going to do, but I couldn’t explain it clearly, it was vague, and I didn’t answer the call, and I couldn’t find anyone. Do you think I can stop worrying? He has always been a very sensible person. My child, I did this this time..." It was understandable for him to come to Gu Tao, there was a mention of risk in the letter, although he mentioned it lightly, but how could he pretend that he didn't see it, and in Jiang Luchuan's memory, the only one who could be with Gu Tao These two words are related to the sporadic bits that Gu Tao revealed to him before.

Lu Heng, who had been holding his breath for a while, followed Jiang Luchuan's line of sight and stared at Gu Tao as well, his eyes sharp as arrows.

"Old Jiang, it's not that I didn't tell you. I really don't know his situation. What letter did you say Jian Ming left for you?" Gu Tao never met Lu Heng's eyes since they entered the door. Seeing that cold light, he deliberately avoided it, and now his mouth was responding to Jiang Luchuan, but his corner of the eye still accidentally glanced at the person beside him.

This look sent a chill down Gu Tao's spine, and a sense of deja vu familiarity suddenly emerged.

"He just told me to do something that must be done. He didn't say anything. Didn't I come to you because I didn't know?" Jiang Luchuan was shocked by that letter. It must be of great importance for Ming to leave him such a letter. Jian Ming is such a restrained child, it is definitely not normal for him to choose to speak out his heartfelt feelings that he never said.

"Then did he say when he'll be back?" Gu Tao carefully probed.

Jiang Luchuan paused, "...I didn't say anything, but asked me to wait for him to come back..."

"Hey, that's right, he told you to wait for him to come back, you can wait for him to come back with peace of mind, you have to trust him." Gu Tao didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and hurriedly continued, fearing that the person in front of him would be in trouble again.

There was the siren of a police car summoning to go outside, and Lu Heng jumped up and rushed to Gu Tao when he heard the sound, and met those surprised eyes abruptly.

"Captain Gu, I'm going on a mission." The crispness was unexpected.

Gu Tao was even more surprised, he didn't know what to say for a while, this brat didn't ask any questions or make trouble, just... a mission?I just thought of several sets of rhetoric to deal with the questioning, all stuck in my throat.

"You... just wait for orders this time..."

"I, want, out, task, task!" He said decisively, with a sound on the ground.

"Lu Heng, do you still have some discipline?" Gu Tao was slightly angry and turned against him.

Jiang Luchuan looked puzzled, heard that Gu Tao was going to get angry, and wanted to get up to mediate, Lu Heng turned around and squatted in front of him: "Uncle Jiang, don't worry, Jian Ming told me some time ago that he was going to do something, it's nothing Dangerous, you go home first, I promise he will be back within two days. You have to take care of the team and lead the team out, we also have tasks, trust me, don't worry, just wait for Jian Ming to come home with peace of mind, okay?"

To be honest, these words really surprised Gu Tao. Among the [-] reactions he expected from Lu Heng, this scene never happened. He was actually helping himself to appease Jiang Luchuan?Is this... still Lu Heng?

I don't know if these words are too sincere or because they really have a mission and are embarrassed to disturb them. After a while, Jiang Luchuan looked at Lu Heng and nodded dumbly, "...Okay, I won't bother you for now. I'll wait when I go back. Maybe the phone call will come soon. We got through..." Jiang Luchuan recalled this day and this scene for a long time, only to realize that he could come out of the SWAT team with peace of mind. I!

After Jiang Luchuan left, Gu Tao received a call from the deputy team urging him to leave, and just as he put it down, Lu Heng's calm voice came from behind: "Uncle, I know you don't believe me, and you are afraid that I will act recklessly and make my own decisions without obeying orders. , but I beg you, this time, believe me, give me a chance, no matter what the task is, whoever it is related to, I will never do anything to disappoint you like before, please, take me with you.”

If there is still time, Gu Tao really wants to carefully re-examine the person in front of him. He admits that he has been deeply moved by Lu Heng's words, not only moved, but also inexplicably moved.

"Aren't you going to ask me what my mission is?"

Lu Heng shook his head, "No need, follow the instructions to carry out everything." Participating in the task, he naturally knew, he was not in a hurry to explain, he understood that his uncle was testing him.

Gu Tao smiled knowingly, and sighed softly: "Lu Heng, Lu Heng, I hope you will do what you say, and don't let me down again." He lightly touched the police rank on Lu Heng's shoulder, then pressed his shoulder hard and said : "Go, change clothes and lead the gun and set off."

Getting ready in the fastest time, Lu Heng opened his storage room, took out the necklace that Jian Ming gave him, stood in front of the vertical mirror, put it on for himself, and carefully put the key pendant in front of him into his collar after fastening it. In the middle of it, he covered it and closed his eyes tightly, and when he opened them again, there was an extremely determined gaze in his eyes.

The road is wide, and seven or eight blue and white police cars are honking their horns and turning on their lights, and they are galloping towards the harbour.

...

The freighter stopped sailing at the boundary of the high seas. Jian Ming glanced at Wang Yue with a proud face, and said mockingly, "If you dare to sail into the inner sea, I'll really look at you with admiration."

Wang Yue squinted his eyes and squinted at him, humming: "Oh, the game has to be fair, how can you be lazy, stopping here is enough to give Yan Dong face."

Jian Ming changed the subject: "That's right, this is your rare advantage." Turning around his wrists, which had been tied up for a few days, he said, "Let's be fair between us, I can't pose a threat to you, and I have to It's a bit inhumane to cooperate with you to let Yan Dong agree to the request, and then tie me up."

"Haha... I'm just wondering why you figured it out so quickly. You thought you were going to imitate your father and sacrifice your life for the country." Ever since Wang Yue was put together by Lu Heng, he always had doubts about his own judgment. Doubt, although this is his most taboo.People who are arrogant to the extreme only believe in themselves.

"I said, when I see you, I want the truth. Otherwise, you think I came to die for the country? It's the police's business to arrest you. I don't have the ability. Besides, even if you get away with it this time, I firmly believe that there is someone One day you will fall into the law, why should I be so stupid as to kill an innocent person." Jian Ming's words were relaxed, and there was no fault in reasoning.

"You don't want to avenge your parents?" Wang Yue's eyes flickered coldly.

"Think about it, think about it, but I don't dare to kill people, and of course I won't. After all, dogs bite people, and people can't bite dogs. I still understand this basic truth. I believe in one sentence, the law of heaven is clear, and the law is difficult." Run away, I will look forward to your final fate."

There is a kind of person, the more you are compliant and seek peace, the more you pretend to be attached, it will be counterproductive. Wang Yue is this kind of person. When he swells to this level, he has long been true and false and false and true. The fight is psychological.

He really fell for it, "Haha, you are honest. Don't say that I really admire you. You have a bad mouth and a real brain. Well, you have to live well and see who can have the last laugh." Hand With a wave, he shouted, "Untie him."

The corners of Jian Ming's lips raised slightly.

Yan Donglai never expected to see Lu Heng's face in the special police team, he cowarded up without confidence, hid in the command vehicle, and secretly cursed Gu Tao for his broken words.

After listening to the on-site mission description, Lu Heng's expression still fluctuated uncontrollably. To Gu Tao's relief, he was in control and did not interrupt the whole process in a very measured manner.

"Okay, Tian Kun, you and Lu Heng are still in charge of the sniping team, and you don't need to participate in the others. After boarding the ship, follow my orders and don't act without permission." Anyone who heard the last two sentences knows.

Several warships of the marine police have parked in the port, ready to be hit at any time.

Yan Donglai walked out of the command vehicle to hand over the mission, but it was inevitable that he would face Lu Heng head-on. He glanced at Gu Tao in front of Lu Heng, held back the three-character scriptures that he wanted to blurt out, and said forbearance: "This mission is more difficult, and we must closely cooperate with the water. Police, the other party's ship is at the junction of the high seas, I'm still applying for head-on combat, so don't act rashly." Eyes glanced at Lu Heng, "Well, the task of the sniper this time is difficult, do you all understand the current situation?"

Gu Tao said sharply, "It's clear, I've already told them that I, the sniper, are on the same team as you. Tell me about the situation you have now, and when will you start?"

As soon as the words fell, the phone in Yan Donglai's hand rang, and when he connected, three deep marks appeared on his brows.

The call from the poisonous king came at the right time, Yan Donglai didn't even give him time to turn around.

The deal was not going well, Yan Donglai neither dared to provoke the other party nor could he destroy his momentum, so he was in a dilemma.

"I need to ask for instructions on what you said, please give me some time. Also, we need to confirm the safety of the hostages." Yan Donglai deliberately used the description of hostages. He really didn't dare to take risks. If the words "Jian Ming" came out, Gu Tao Will the face of volcanic rock behind him explode suddenly, making him blush. "I want to hear his voice."

Wang Yue turned on the phone and stretched it out in front of Jian Ming. He paused with his hands and lifted his chin slightly, as if reminding him to be concise.

"Team Yan."

"Are you OK."

"I didn't..." Before he finished speaking, Jian Ming heard a background voice on the other end of the phone shouting, Lu Heng, stop for me.

Lu Heng? !

he came?

...Yes, he is a special police officer, it is normal to appear at this time...

As soon as Wang Yue put away his phone, Jian Ming couldn't hear anything else he said.He missed a person like never before, and the longing that he had suppressed for a few days was at this moment, and the tide was surging.

In the evening, the sky gradually turned dark, and Yan Donglai was overjoyed by the sudden turn of the sky. He had never been so eager for a storm like now.

Several people on the same battleship were staring at the monitor in the cabin, and Lu Heng looked at the light spot that was on the signal without moving, with a focused expression.

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Gu Tao swallowed his words of accusation as soon as they reached his lips, and said indifferently: "If you really went to snatch the phone just now, I won't let you follow." At that time, Lu Heng was completely subconscious. How could Gu Tao fail to see his behavior, he was angry when he was angry, but his distress was also real.

"I know, it won't happen, Captain Gu." The attitude was sincere.

Tian Kun beside him hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand and patted Lu Heng's shoulder.

The prayers from the harsh winter were particularly effective today, the sky darkened, and a torrential rain came as expected.

The rainwater merged with the sea surface, and the big waves rolled over and over. The marine police rushed into the cabin and made an emergency report: "We only have two hours, the waves are too big, and our boat is small, so we can't resist the stronger sea wind."

"Understood, you guide, are you sure to bring some people into the freighter?" Yan Donglai had never been so serious and nervous, and he had a premonition that this would be a fierce battle.

"No problem, but... we haven't confirmed the high seas yet..." The marine policeman was a little embarrassed.

"Okay, don't you see the sky and help us? It's raining so hard, and we're not measuring instruments, so we can't tell which is which. If you work, I'll take care of it." Yan Donglai had already planned this punishment, As long as the Poison King and the cargo are taken down, the work is worth it, and he will not be dismissed.

Therefore, this battle can only be won.

Crazy Yan was on the line, unstoppable. He turned on the walkie-talkie and arranged the assault mission in an orderly manner. He then discussed with Gu Tao the strategy for cooperation. After a quarter of an hour, several warships approached the freighter.

Yan Dong came to call Poison King, intending to divert his attention. Negotiations, we have to talk.

Except for Wang Yue's [-] or so men on the freighter, the rest were all ordinary crew members. The agile special policemen sneaked onto the ship and took control of the cockpit's crew in a short time.

After Wang Yue hung up Yan Donglai's call, he glanced at Jian Ming proudly, and said with a smile, "Let's go, follow me back to Malaysia." Turning his face, he said sharply to his subordinates, "Notice to return to the voyage."

It's not to blame for his negligence. Being on the high seas, Wang Yue didn't worry about the possibility of fighting at all.Still immersed in the excitement of getting what he wanted, the tall man pushed open the hatch and rushed in with a look of horror on his face, "Boss, no one answered the phone in the cockpit just now, so I sent someone over to check, and there was no one there."

Wang Yue was shocked, and before he had time to react, there was a fierce gunshot at the door. He instinctively strangled Jian Ming's neck to keep him in front of him, and quickly took out the gun from the back of his waist and pointed it at his forehead.

"I'll give you a lung..." A vernacular popped out of his mouth subconsciously.

Jian Ming raised his hands and pinched his arms tightly to prevent him from suffocating due to uncontrollable force.He knew that Yan Dong would make some moves, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.Like Wang Yue, he never expected to be able to fight on the high seas. The original plan was that as soon as the ship was out of the high seas, he would send out a signal to remind Yan Dong to act.The accident came so suddenly that his mind was buzzing and went blank.

The feeling of being hit on the forehead by a gun was very unpleasant, Jian Ming panted violently, cold sweat gathered on his chin along his face, and then dripped on Wang Yue's arm.

"Be honest, I'll kill you with another shot." Jian Ming can basically conclude that the current Wang Yue is his true colors, the poor guy who played tricks without asking for candy 16 years ago.

"...Break me...how do you live...." He struggled to squeeze out a few words from his throat.

"Shut up." Wang Yue was pinched at the gate of life, and his arm strangled Le Jianming's neck.Without wasting half a second, he quickly withdrew from the rear door of the cabin and approached the cargo cabin. There were already several special police ambushing outside the door. He turned around, leaned his back against the deck, and shouted: "Listen to me, tell Yan Dong to come and ask me to It's easy to die, as long as someone is buried with you."

The special police officers all raised their guns to face each other, and none of them dared to step forward. Yan Donglai had an explanation to ensure the safety of the hostages.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, let me into the cargo hold."

The special police did not dare to approach, all of them were on edge.

Everyone on Yan Donglai's boat heard the loud roar on the intercom, Lu Heng's body trembled, and his hands shook violently uncontrollably.It's been a long time since he had this kind of physical reaction. He nervously staggered and held his arms, shaking more and more as he tried to hold them down.The two puddles of water almost rushed out of his eyes, but he didn't notice it, and he didn't even try to hide it.

"Lu Heng, what's wrong with you?" Gu Tao panicked.

"It's...it's okay...let me do it myself..." He didn't want to hear any inquiries or concerns now, so he rushed out of the cabin and fell into the thunderstorm and let the rain invade.

Tian Kun was dumbfounded.

Gu Tao looked at that figure and said with heartache: "Do you know? For three years, he has come here like this, day after day."

Tian Kun's eyes flashed suddenly, as if a thick city wall collapsed instantly in his heart.

Yan Donglai spoke to the police officer on board: "Tell him to turn on the phone, I want to talk to him."

"Severe winter is coming, it's alright you, even the high seas dare to open fire, you really dare to go out." Wang Yue's voice has no confidence.

"You let Jian Ming go, we won't hurt you, as long as you surrender, I promise you will be intact." Yan Donglai spoke, gesturing to suggest that the marine police steer the boat towards Wang Yue's direction.

"Haha...haha...do you think I'm afraid of death? Hmph! I've never been afraid since I started this way. If you want to catch me in, it's better to kill me directly." Wang Yue smiled angrily.He was completely on the verge of losing control, with no measure of strength, and Jian Ming's face under his arms was slightly purple. "Come on. Let these bastards shoot, let's count one, two, three, and shoot together! Haha..." He poked Jian Ming's temple with the barrel of the gun as he spoke.

Jian Ming let go of his right hand, moved to his left arm, and slammed the seam of the tracker on the inner side of his arm. A cluster of bright red blood stained his sleeve instantly.

"Captain Yan, the tracker signal is off." Tian Kun shouted.

Yan Donglai was taken aback, Jian Ming was sending him a signal?They had long agreed that the signal from the tracker would be the signal for action.But they have already acted, what does he mean by doing this now?Could it be... Could it be implying that he...

Yan Donglai was still on the phone line with Wang Yue, Gu Tao gestured to him to keep delaying, then turned to Tian Kunling and said, "Get on the roof, prepare to attack!"

"Captain Gu!" Lu Heng's cold voice came from beside him. "Let me do it." He was drenched and embarrassed, but his body miraculously returned to normal.

"No, you... are not suitable." Gu Tao refused straight away. When is the time, the heavenly king and I have no heart to say.

Tian Kun didn't know where the courage came from, and suddenly said: "Captain Gu, let him come, I can't." Leaving aside some reasons that I don't want to explain, in this wind and rainstorm environment, he is really not sure that he can complete the task.

"You..." Gu Tao glared angrily, his expression seemed to swallow Tian Kun alive, "You dare to disobey orders at this fucking time!"

"I'm sorry." After Tian Kun finished speaking, he resolutely walked out of the cabin.

"Team Gu, trust me, you trust me." Lu Heng stared at Gu Tao intently, as if time stood still.

"I'm not sure, are you going to be rude again?" Gu Tao growled.

Lu Heng inhaled heavily, exhaled, and shook his head resolutely, "No, I'll follow Captain Gu's instructions."

In this 1 minute, Gu Tao witnessed the transformation of a boy into a real man.He swore that he would never forget it.

"Take the gun and go to the roof."

The scope was cloudy, Lu Heng wiped the water from his eyelids, and focused on the target without moving.Tian Kun didn't know when to follow, and silently propped up a raincoat on top of his head.

Jian Ming in the mirror became more and more clear, he bit his lower lip tightly, and tightened the sniper in his hand.

Gu Tao's voice came from the intercom, "There is no time, what's the location?"

"can."

"How sure?"

"Seven...eight points."

"Okay, get ready to shoot." Gu Tao stabilized his trembling voice, and said softly, "Relax, I believe in you, and Jian Ming... also believes in you."

"Yeah." The voice was still in the mouth, hey——, the bullet rushed out of the gun and shot directly at the target.

"Ah!" Wang Yue suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, and he let go of his hand, and the unconscious Jian Ming fell to the ground. In a flash, Wang Yue jumped to the side of the cargo hold and disappeared in front of everyone.

"Fuck, fuck——" Due to the obstruction of the wind during the transformation, coupled with the cloudy vision, Lu Heng missed the target's head, and he clenched his fists angrily and pounded heavily on the cabin roof.

On the deck, the two nearest special police officers followed Wang Yue and jumped out of the cargo hold. Within 5 minutes, there were a few loud rumbling noises inside, and red flames and gunpowder smoke rushed out from the four windows. The snake is still wantonly stretching.

"Boom—" There was another loud noise.

"No, the cargo hold is full of oil." Yan Donglai's legs gave way, and he almost fell into the sea. "All retreat, all retreat, the mission is terminated." He thought about the dozen or so policemen on board, if all their orders were here, even if he died a hundred times in severe winter, it would not be enough to pay back.

Holding up the binoculars, Gu Tao exclaimed: "Captain Yan, our ship is too close. I don't know what's in the bilge. How could it explode? Evacuate to a safe place."

The flames rose steadily, and the successive fire clouds dragged long rays of light across the night sky.

There was thick smoke and chaos everywhere, except for the two heroes who could no longer get out of the cargo hold, the police officers who received the order returned to their respective warships one after another, but Lu Heng didn't even see Jian Ming's shadow.

"Where's Jian Ming?" Lu Heng jumped down from the cabin roof, picked up Yan Donglai's collar with one hand and shouted angrily.

"Just now I saw someone forcing him to evacuate, where is the person?" The battleship slowly left the freighter, and Gu Tao only saw raging fire through the binoculars...

"Boom——"

Accompanied by a final deafening sound, a cloud of gray-blue mushrooms soared into the sky, and the scarlet flames bloomed on the sea like enchanting and gorgeous flowers from the other shore.

"Jian Ming——" Lu Heng's desperate cry resounded through the air.

The author has something to say: two chapters combined!

It's really coming to an end, so sad...
