t
Nan Liu Junior School.
Outside of the school gates.
Behind a row of police cars, the County’s Party Secretary Xiang Daofa, County’s Mayor Xie Huilan, Deputy Party Secretary Cao Xupeng, County’s Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee Huang Li, Public Security Bureau Chief Liang Chengpeng were holding a meeting on how to handle this case. After knowing Chief Dong had entered the school building to replace Cao Xupeng as a hostage, Xie Huilan rushed back to the school. The officer driving the police car is not Dong Xuebing and dare not to go against the Mayor’s orders. He immediately turned the police car around and drove back to the school. But it was too late. Dong Xuebing had already entered the school building.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Continuous gunshots were heard. All the family members and officers panicked.
Liang Chengpeng’s face changed. “Shit! That might be Chief Dong!”
Xiang Daofa hit the police car’s windshield angrily. “This Xiao Dong! What the hell is he doing?! Can’t he wait a little longer?! There will be opportunities to save the hostages after they leave in the mini-bus! How can he act by himself? He will agitate the criminals, and the hostages will be in danger! Chief Dong is too rash!”
Although what Secretary Xiang said was right, Liang Chengpeng felt he was too much. Chief Dong had sacrificed himself as the hostage for the teachers and students. Just his courage alone is admirable. “Secretary Xiang, what should we do now?”
Xiang Daofa gave Liang Chengpeng a stare. “Are you the Public Security Chief?”
Liang Chengpeng took a deep breath. He could tell Xiang Daofa is trying to push the responsibility to him.
Huang Li gave the instructions. “Get the Armed officers ready! Be prepared to engage the escapees anytime!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! It was the sounds of gunshots again!
Everyone was worried. The situation is gloomy for them. There are nine escapees, and they are armed with guns and knives, and there are more than a dozen hostages. If the police rush in, no one knows what tragedy will happen. But if they don’t storm the building after the gunshots, Chief Dong and the hostages will be in danger.
Just when everyone was looking towards the school building, Mayor Xie said.
“Get the Armed Police to enter!”
Liang Chengpeng hesitated. “But… The situation inside…”
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes. “Storm the building! Rescue the hostages!”
When the situation is dire, people will hesitate to make any decisions, and it will cause a delay. Huang Li heard Xie Huilan and turned to look at Xiang Daofa. He was utterly disappointed with Xiang Daofa. Even now, the latter is still thinking of pushing the responsibility to others. Doesn’t he know that if anything happens to the hostages, everyone at the scene will be held responsible? It was the younger Xie Huilan that impressed him. She can still be so decisive and gave out such order under this circumstance.
Huang Li agreed with Xie Huilan, and this is not the time to hesitate. “Enter and rescue the hostages!”
Liang Chengpeng gritted his teeth and gave out the orders through his radio set.
The Armed Police started to move. A team rushed towards the school building’s main door, and another team surrounded the ground floor. They were preparing to enter the building through the windows. Some officers ran towards the back of the building to prevent the criminals from escaping. The onlookers were nervous. They were worried that the hostages might already be killed by the time the police enter. Many parents were crying and praying for their children’s safety. Deputy Team Leader Feng, Chu Feng, and the rest of the officers were worried about Chief Dong’s safety. The gunshots had stopped, and Chief Dong might be dead by now.
But when the Armed Police were about to break the front door open, something unexpected happened.
The school building’s main door was opened by someone inside!
Dong Xuebing, who had entered the building as hostage 5 to 6 minutes ago, walked out unscathed. His hands were still handcuffed, and his clothes and hands were covered in blood!
“Chief Dong!”
“Chief Dong!”
The police officers at the door were shocked and did not understand what was going on. Is Chief Dong not dead? But how did he come out by himself?
The next moment, all the Armed Officers froze in their steps as they look behind Dong Xuebing. They looked like they had seen a ghost! A few seconds later, everyone outside of the school building and school gates saw one kid… two kids… three kids… four kids… five kids… walking out of the school building one after another. A few teachers also staggered out slowly into the school field!
“Leilei!
“Teacher Chen!”
“Huanhuan!”
“Xiao Yu!”
The parents and relatives outside of the school rushed forward to look for their kids and family!
“Mum!”
“Dad!”
“Sob! Dad! Dad!”
It was a heartwarming sight in the school field. People were hugging, crying, kissing…
A few reporters took the opportunity to sneak in and start taking pictures of the touching moment. They even took pictures of Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing looked at them and felt satisfied. It was worth rescuing all the hostages even if he had lost an arm or leg in the process. He looked at the stunned police officers and smiled. He waved his hand. “Old Feng, what are you looking at? Hurry up and release the handcuffs. How can I let the reporters take photographs of me with these cuffs? People might think that I am one of the escapees. Hurry up!”
Deputy Team Leader Feng and a few officers ran forward. “Where are the escapees?”
Secretary Xiang, Mayor Xie, Chief Liang, and the rest of the leaders walked quickly to Dong Xuebing.
Liang Chengpeng asked urgently. “What’s the situation inside? How did the hostages escape?”
Dong Xuebing had only entered the building for 5 minutes, and he walked out with all the hostages. This was too weird.
Huang Li, Cao Xupeng, and the rest were staring at Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing suddenly realized that he had killed several people earlier. He felt like vomiting and had goosebumps. His face turned pale and said. “I had killed the criminals.”
Liang Chengpeng paused for a second and asked. “How many?”
“9.”
Xiang Dafa took a deep breath. Even Xie Huilan got shocked. “All the escapees are dead?”
“Yes. The situation was critical, and if I hold back and don’t kill them, the hostages will be in danger. So…”
Many people don’t believe what Dong Xuebing said and looked at him weirdly. They thought to themselves. It will be a miracle if one manages to escape from nine criminals. You are still considering if you want to hold back? A few seconds later, an Armed Officer, who had entered the building, came out. He looked at Dong Xuebing in shock and reported. “Sir! The bodies of the nine escapees are found on the second floor of the school building! They are all dead!”
The school field suddenly becomes quiet. Many parents and reporters looked over in shock!
All dead?
Nine of them?!
Huang Li and Cao Xupeng exchanged looks. In that instance, many people saw the handcuffs on Dong Xuebing’s hands. His hands were still cuffed tightly and were in the same position when Chief Dong entered the school building. Dong Xuebing had entered the building with no weapons and had his hands cuffed. His opponents are nine strong escapees armed with guns and knives. The escapees still have hostages. Did he manage to kill all the escapees under these circumstances and rescued all the hostages without getting hurt?
Damn! Your fighting skills are too ridiculous!
After a while, the policemen carried the bodies out. The bodies were covered with a white cloth.
One…
Two…
Three…
There were nine bodies in total.
The scene of the bodies being carried out one after another was shocking. The Police officers were speechless. They had heard that Chief Dong is good at fighting and could fight against six opponents at once. He can fire four shots continuously and hit four criminals in their legs. But today, everyone finally understood the real power of Chief Dong. He should be unbeatable in the whole province! There can never be another officer who can fight as well as Chief Dong. Do you think you are better than Chief Dong? Fine. We will handcuff you and throw you in the middle of a bunch of criminals. We can don’t give the criminals hostages and guns. You just need to make it out alive!
Deputy Team Leader Feng was speechless as he released the handcuffs from Dong Xuebing’s hands. He wanted to ask, “Did you graduate from a normal university?” But he did not ask this question as everyone had seen Chief Dong’s resume before. He had graduated from a third-rate university in Beijing and is not from the Police School.
The students’ parents walked over and crowded around Dong Xuebing.
An old lady was crying as she held Dong Xuebing’s hand. “Thank you! My whole family thanked you from the bottom of our hearts!”
Dong Xuebing felt warmed and held the old lady’s hand.
Clap…… someone in the crowd started clapping and soon, the students’ family members, the teachers’ family members, the reporters, police officers, the onlookers, and even the leaders like Xiang Daofa, Xie Huilan, and Cao Xupeng started clapping.
Click! A reporter took a picture of this scene!
About 10 minutes later, the parents and family members left with their children.
Xie Huilan walked up to Dong Xuebing and looked at him. She nodded slightly and said. “Well done! You deserve the full credit in this incident!”
Dong Xuebing felt slightly embarrassed. “Mayor Xie, this is what I should do.”
Xie Huilan smiled and narrowed her eyes as she looked at him. “Very modest. Good.”
Laing Chengpeng looked at Dong Xuebing with approving looks. Chief Dong had done the Public Security proud.
The incident is over, and Secretary Xiang had left to settle the aftermath. Xie Huilan was also leaving, when a car suddenly stopped at the school’s gates. The Director of the County’s Ministry of Education, Yu Zhengzhi, alighted from the vehicle in a hurry and ran over. “Mayor Xie, I am late because of some problems at home.” He smells of alcohol and should be drinking earlier.
Xie Huilan looked at him. “The case is already over, and you just arrived? Where have you been?!”
Yu Zhengzhi wiped his sweat and replied nervously. “My house…”
Xie Huilan ignored him and entered her vehicle.
