Lu Sizheng listened to the footsteps behind him, and the corners of his lips subconsciously curled up. He said mockingly, “I should sigh. Is there a no better teacher than old age itself?”

Lu Xiangtian sneered and added, “No, you should reflect on yourself. You never fully paid attention to my lessons.”

Lu Sizheng chuckled again when he heard that. There was a hint of calmness in his tone. “Is that so?”

Lu Xiangtian frowned when he heard his words. He felt that something was wrong. Before he could think of anything, Lu Sizheng suddenly poked his head out from behind the pillar and quickly retracted his head.

Throughout the entire process, before anyone could react, he had raised his gun and shot once. Of course, the reason why no one was able to react immediately… was also because he had not fired at any of them, but instead hit the chandelier above their heads.

With a pop, the light bulb burst, and fragments fell from above their heads, making a series of shattering sounds.

Along with the bursting of the light bulb, the dim light in the entire warehouse instantly disappeared without a trace. It was pitch-black, and one could not even see one’s fingers.

Zhao Youlin and the others looked at the pitch-black warehouse and their hearts skipped a beat. No wonder… No wonder Lu Sizheng had specially met Lu Xiangtian at eight o’clock in the evening. This had been part of his plans!

The darkness in the warehouse made Zhao Youlin feel as if she had returned to that night three years ago. She could not tell if it was fear or rage driving her thoughts.

Just as she was in a daze, a small sound suddenly rang in her ear. This sound was so familiar that Zhao Youlin did not have time to be surprised, let alone dodge in time.

At that critical moment, a weight quickly pressed down on her body, saving her, but she soon heard a muffled groan.

Zhao Youlin was stunned for a moment, but she quickly returned to her senses and reached out to hug the person who was lying on top of her. Her expression was a little ugly. “Tingfeng, you…”

“I’m fine. Let’s find a place to hide first. There are snipers.”

Zhao Youlin could not see Mu Tingfeng’s injuries clearly. She also did not know where Mu Tingfeng was shot or how serious his injuries were. His face was slightly pale, but she knew that this was not the time to talk about this.

For the snipers to be able to aim at them and fire so accurately in such a dark place, it was obvious that they had brought something to aid their line of sight. Therefore, the real enemy was in the dark. If they were not careful, they would not even know how they died.

!!!

Under such circumstances, the people hiding in the dark had an absolute advantage. As long as they wanted to, everyone in the warehouse would become lambs, waiting to be slaughtered by their guns. They would not be able to escape.

Zhao Youlin helped Mu Tingfeng up and used the dim moonlight to move to the side. She remembered that there was a large goods rack on their left just now. It was more than enough to give the two of them cover.

“Pay attention to the two o’clock direction on the upper right corner. The shot just now came from there,” Mu Tingfeng leaned on Zhao Youlin’s shoulder and reminded her carefully.

Zhao Youlin nodded and carefully led him in another direction.

The sniper hidden in the dark might have noticed that they had failed, so the two of them were already prepared. They then turned their guns on the other people in the warehouse, or perhaps Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng walked in the direction of the sniper’s blind spot. After that, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng were no longer shot at.

The two of them stumbled behind the goods rack. Occasionally, they heard a few cries of pain coming from all directions. Clearly, someone else had been shot.

Zhao Youlin helped Mu Tingfeng sit down. Although it was so dark that the wounds on his body could not be seen clearly, Zhao Youlin could feel the dampness in her palms. That was… Mu Tingfeng’s blood.

“Where? Where are you hurt? Tell me, where are you hurt?” Zhao Youlin panicked for the second time in her life. The first time was when she heard that Joy had been kidnapped, and the second time was now.

Her heart was pounding, as if it was stuck in her throat. If it beat any harder, it might jump out of her mouth. She couldn’t help but tremble. It wasn’t particularly cold yet… but she felt as if she was in an ice cellar. Her entire body was cold.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Don’t be afraid. It’s not anywhere important. I only hurt my shoulder.” Mu Tingfeng’s voice carried a trace of weakness due to excessive blood loss.

Zhao Youlin did not receive any consolation because of this. Even if it was not a vital part, his life was in danger due to blood loss.

“Where… where… tell me, where is it?”

Mu Tingfeng was helpless. He reached out and pulled Zhao Youlin into his arms. Then, he took her hand and slowly put it on his injured shoulder.

The blood on her shoulder was still flowing. The moment Zhao Youlin touched the warm blood, she trembled even more.

“No, I have to stop the bleeding. I have to stop the bleeding immediately!” Zhao Youlin reached out and wanted to tear off a piece of cloth on her clothes to try to stop the bleeding for Mu Tingfeng. However, she was too nervous. Her hands were trembling. She tried several times but failed to tear off the clothes.

Seeing this, Mu Tingfeng held her hand again and said in a low voice, “Youlin, Youlin… Listen to me. Calm down, calm down. You can do it. Believe in yourself. Don’t be nervous, don’t be nervous. I’m fine, I’m fine.”

There was comfort in Mu Tingfeng’s voice. Zhao Youlin gradually calmed down. It was not the usual calmness, but a blank slate of mind. Her training and muscle memory kicked in. Zhao Youlin successfully tore her clothes and wrapped the cloth around Mu Tingfeng’s shoulder, following her police academy training.

The bleeding was stopped, but it was only temporary. If they could not escape from this place quickly, the tourniquet would also cut off Mu Tingfeng’s blood flow and things would get exacerbated.

The immediate crisis averted, a switch seemed to go off in Zhao Youlin’s head. She collapsed to the ground, her heart aching. This was the first time she wanted to cry. If something happened to Mu Tingfeng… she didn’t dare to think about what would happen to her.

“Yulin, I’m fine.”

Her calm tone was still indifferent, but it made the fear in Zhao Youlin’s heart turn into anger. This person… this person was always so indifferent, always so uncaring of her… he had a heart of ice and steel, but he always did crazy things for her.

“You fool, fool, how could you do that? Those are bullets! Who do you think you are? Are you a god, or is your body made of steel? Do you think even bullets can’t hurt you?”
