Chapter 32: Kidnapping Resolved in Three Seconds

incur losses today because Xia Tian had an enormous appetite; if he liked their food, he could easily eat up his bill.Lu Hui and Su Qin, however, were puzzled by the man who called himself Song Si. Di...Chapter 1: Big and Little Beauties

"Xiaoman, aren't you at work" A kind voice came through the phone. "What Do you miss Grandma"

"Yes, Grandma, I really do miss you!" Liu Yunman's tone had a hint of coquettishness.

"You little rascal, just trying to charm me! If you really missed me, why didn't you come back to see me Don’t tell me there’s no time, it only takes an hour by car."

Old lady's tone had a hint of reproach.

"Grandma, I know I'm wrong. I'll be back to visit you soon," Liu Yunman said in a soft voice, her eyes dimming slightly. Yes, she really should go see Grandma; otherwise, in a few months, Grandma might never get to see her again.

"Xiaoman, is there something going on when you call me now" The old lady sighed softly and asked proactively, knowing her granddaughter well enough to understand that without important matters, she wouldn't usually make such calls at this time.

Liu Yunman hesitated for a moment before asking in a soft voice, "Grandma, have you heard of the Reversing Heaven Eight Needles"

Bang!

The sound of a cup falling to the ground could be heard from the other end of the line. Then Liu Yunman heard Grandma's voice rise several octaves but still tremble slightly, "Reversing Heaven Eight Needles Xiaoman, who told you about the Reversing Heaven Eight Needles"

"Grandma, are you okay" Liu Yunman asked with concern.

"Xiaoman, I'm fine. Tell me quickly, who mentioned the Reversing Heaven Eight Needles to you Did that person say they know the Reversing Heaven Eight Needles" The old lady's voice became noticeably urgent.

"It's a person named Xia Tian. He didn't say whether he could perform the Reversing Heaven Eight Needles technique or not, but he said he could cure my illness. When I asked him how, he mentioned the Reversing Heaven Eight Needles..." Liu Yunman was afraid that her grandmother wouldn't understand, so she proceeded to relay everything over the phone.

"Xia Tian A young man under twenty years old" The elderly person mumbled into the phone. "How could he be a flower delivery guy"

"Grandma, is it possible that he's a fraudster" Liu Yunman was somewhat uneasy.

"No, no, I just find this rather puzzling. Alright, Yunman, I'll head to the city right away and meet with the young man myself!" The elderly person quickly made up her mind.

"Ah, Grandma, you don't have to come here. If you want to see him, let me go look for him and bring him over to you..." Liu Yunman hurriedly said.

"No!" The elderly person interrupted Liu Yunman's words. "Xiaoman, if that young man truly mastered the Reversing Heaven Eight Needles technique, then I must personally meet with him!"

There was an unchallengeable tone in her voice: "I'll leave immediately. Wait for me!"

"Alright, Grandma." Having reached this point, Liu Yunman naturally didn't dare to oppose anymore; however, she found herself increasingly curious about this Xia Tian—could he really be a mysterious recluse

At the hospital gate, an urgent siren sound suddenly blared. Liu Yunman looked out of her window and saw several police cars entering the hospital premises. A dozen armed special police officers got off from the vehicles, leaving her in shock. What could have happened at the hospital

The hospital did indeed experience a serious incident—a hostage situation.

The incident occurred on the sixth floor of the ward building where a patient took a nurse and two other patients staying in the same room as hostages with a knife.

"Li Ping, how did you become a police officer You can't even handle such a minor issue!" Cold Bingbing was currently furious. "You'd better hope the hostage doesn’t get hurt; otherwise, you might as well prepare to take off your uniform!"

Li Ping was the deputy captain of the sixth criminal investigation team and a direct subordinate under Cold Bingbing. He couldn't refute her words at the moment but was cursing his subordinates in his heart. These bastards, hadn’t he just left for a while How could they cause such a big commotion

If something really did happen to the hostage, as the person directly responsible, he might truly have difficulty keeping his job.

While Li Ping was inwardly lamenting and praying for the arrival of the special police team, he hoped that their sniper could deal with the perpetrator. As long as the hostage remained safe, he would just receive a punishment at most.

All other patients on the sixth floor had already been evacuated, and the floor was now cordoned off by the police. Li Ping kept looking at the staircase; why hadn’t the special police arrived yet

Suddenly, Li Ping spotted a somewhat familiar figure. A youth was leisurely walking down from the seventh floor. Upon closer inspection, he became overjoyed.

"Summer, Summer!" Li Ping rushed towards that youth.

Summer seemed rather confused: "Who are you"

"Er... Summer, we met at the police station. I'm a subordinate of Captain Cold; my name is Li Ping." Li Ping was somewhat awkward as it seemed this guy only remembered beautiful ladies.

Summer immediately spotted Cold Bingbing and walked over with a happy expression: "Police flower sister, you're here too!"

"Don't bother me!" Cold Bingbing glared fiercely at Summer. "We are currently handling a case; go downstairs quickly!"

"Captain, Captain, don't do that!" Li Ping hurriedly ran over. He had such bad luck today;好不容易遇到了貴人，怎麼能就這樣讓隊長把他趕走呢？ how could he let the captain drive him away

"Li Ping, what are you doing" Leng Bingbing was clearly displeased.

“Captain, don’t you remember” Li Ping said softly. “That summer when we were at the police station, he easily took Huang Anping’s gun from him. If we ask for his help…”

"No way! He's not a police officer!" Leng Bingbing immediately rejected the idea before Li Ping could finish; of course, she already understood what Li Ping meant.

“Captain, that’s exactly why it would be better if he isn’t a police officer. 上頭讓我們把這件事交給特警，我們自己去做的話，就是違反命令，但要是讓一個無關的人來做這件事，那就跟我們沒關係了！ Our superiors want us to hand this over to the special forces; if we handle it ourselves, we would be disobeying orders, but if someone unrelated does it, then it won’t concern us!” Li Ping quickly explained. “If we settle things before the special forces arrive, wouldn’t that also give us face”

“No way! The special forces are arriving right away; let them deal with it.” Leng Bingbing still disagreed. “As for our reputation, do you really think we’ll have any after something like this happens”

“But Captain, I heard that those special forces aren’t very good. If anything goes wrong and someone gets hurt, the responsibility would still fall on us in the end. 如果讓夏天去，那可是萬無一失！ If we let summer handle it, there won’t be any problems.” Li Ping continued to persuade her. After some thought, he added another argument: “Captain, you don’t want anything to happen to the hostage, do you”

Li Ping was well aware that his captain had a strong sense of justice; she would always prioritize the safety and welfare of the hostages.

Indeed, when Li Ping pointed this out, Leng Bingbing finally started considering it. She knew about summer’s capabilities firsthand, although she wished she could beat him up for what he did to her. Still, she had to admit that he was indeed very strong. Having him rescue the hostage would be more appropriate.

"Captain, something’s wrong! Guo Liang is getting agitated!" A policeman rushed over; Guo Liang was the one who took the hostage.

Leng Bingbing looked at the staircase where the special forces were supposed to arrive. Sucking in her breath, she finally made up her mind and turned to summer: “Follow me!”

Cold Ice strode confidently towards the innermost ward, where the匪徒 were located. Xia Tian naturally followed closely behind her, while Li Ping finally let out a long breath; he believed that his job was likely secure.

"The criminal is named Guo Liang, he's the one who robbed you last night. He used scissors to kidnap a nurse, go and rescue the hostage," Cold Ice said as they walked.

So those robbers from last night were brought here to this hospital, with Li Ping in charge of guarding them. Originally, everyone was handcuffed, but Guo Liang somehow managed to open his handcuffs and then seized a nurse who came to give him an injection when the police weren't paying attention.

"Police Flower sister, if I rescue the hostage, will you agree to be my wife" Xia Tian asked with a smile.

"You..." Cold Ice glared at Xia Tian angrily. "Rescue the hostage first!"

"Okay! Here I go!" Xia Tian dashed into the ward like a tornado and then came back out just as quickly. "Police Flower sister, are you my wife now"

"Didn't I tell you to rescue the hostage first" Cold Ice gritted her teeth.

"I've already rescued them!" Xia Tian said with an innocent expression.

"What" Cold Ice was taken aback, then she saw a nurse rush out of the ward and throw herself into a police officer's arms, sobbing. This nurse was actually the one who had been kidnapped.

Cold Ice couldn't control her legs as they carried her into the room, where she found Guo Liang lying on the ground unconscious. The scissors were still in his hand.

"So fast" Li Ping exclaimed from the doorway in disbelief.

Even though Li Ping had seen Xia Tian's skills, he never imagined that the matter would be resolved so quickly! It took less than a minute!

Of course, if he knew how many seconds it actually took for Xia Tian to complete everything, his eyeballs might have fallen out of shock.

"Brother Li, thank you!" Xia Tian patted Li Ping's shoulder.

Li Ping was confused again and couldn't help but laugh: "Xia Tian, I'm the one who should be thanking you. Why are you thanking me"

"Of course I have to thank you! If not for your opportunity, how could I make Officer Sister agree to marry me" Xia Tian said with a smile. "Whenever there's anything in the future, feel free to ask me for help!"

"Certainly, certainly!" Li Ping was overjoyed; this was like getting something for nothing! Such good fortune actually fell upon him. With such a formidable helper in the future, would there be any thief he couldn't catch

Leng Bingbing angrily shouted: "What nonsense are you talking Who agreed to marry you"

"Officer Sister, didn’t you just say that if I save someone, you’ll become my wife" Xia Tian hurriedly said.

"I only told you to rescue the person first. Did I ever mention what would happen afterward" Leng Bingbing said irritably.

Xia Tian thought about it and immediately had a bitter expression: "You're right, sigh, next time I’ll definitely make it clear."

Shaking his head, Xia Tian patted Li Ping's shoulder again, with a slightly regretful look: "Brother Li, since Officer Sister isn't going to be my wife, there’s nothing else I can do for you."l incomprehensible.The Heavenly King Nightclub, which had once been one of Hope Bay's most famous landmarks, collapsed completely within just a few minutes, turning into rubble.
