Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1412 - 1461: Cooperation to Rescue Hostages

Originally, it was just a shot or two, with no chance to fire more. After Li Yifei saw the sharpshooter’s series of actions after taking the gun, he felt a bit relieved. His marksmanship was still better than the other’s, but with two people, Li Yifei couldn’t guarantee a 100% hit. He still felt it was better to infiltrate. This way, even if the other side missed the shot and alerted those inside, Li Yifei could maximize the safety of the hostages. One dead is different from six dead.

After a brief exchange, Li Yifei was ready. He took off his bulletproof vest directly—though it wasn’t heavy, it greatly affected his movement when worn. Lin Qiong saw him take off the vest and wanted to say something but held back.

Yue Yonggui was still making useless shout-outs. If those words were effective, they would have worked long ago. Unfortunately, this guy wasn’t aware and was still using his official position to pressure the criminals inside.

Li Yifei and the sharpshooter each wore a communicator in their ears. Li Yifei could hear what was happening on this side. The start could be announced by Li Yifei or the sharpshooter, but it’s better if the sharpshooter said it because he could see the whole picture, and he was in control of the sniper rifle.

If Li Yifei announced the start and something suddenly happened on the other side, everything would end in failure.

Li Yifei chose to start from the rooftop on the side, then quietly infiltrate from the roof. Li Yifei had studied the map, so he was confident he could rush in within two seconds. This required extreme caution; otherwise, if the timing was missed, it would be a failed rescue.

No one asked Li Yifei to do this, but he felt he should because those two criminals had come to the clinic because of him.

Lin Qiong held the walkie-talkie, leaning against the car body, frowning, her eyes fixed on the clinic ahead, sketching Li Yifei’s route in her mind.

The sharpshooter was also adjusting his state, measuring wind speed and other objective factors. He didn’t choose a high point but hid on top of a station wagon, just blocked by a luggage box, showing only the gun muzzle, offering excellent concealment.

The people inside the house weren’t fools; of course, they knew to cover themselves, even having the hostages cover windows with bedsheets. One window was already covered.

Li Yifei was already in position, and there were also police waiting behind, likely that the people inside knew this too. The police watched as Li Yifei climbed down from the building, all stunned, because they didn’t know who he was or what he was doing. They hurriedly reported this to Yue Yonggui, who also didn’t know, but upon hearing his subordinates’ description, he immediately jumped up, rushed to Song Ranmin, and questioned why irrelevant people were allowed in. Song Ranmin, of course, didn’t admit it as all his people were present. Unexpectedly, Yue Yonggui remembered Li Yifei, having just seen him standing next to Song Ranmin, so he exposed it on the spot.

Seeing he couldn’t hide it, Song Ranmin simply admitted, "Director Yue, his name is Li Yifei, former captain of the Flying Hawk Squad, and I have confidence in him."

Yue Yonggui, of course, had heard of Li Yifei, his eye twitched slightly, giving a heavy snort, and said, "Nonsense. Even if he’s the current captain, this is the provincial capital. We’re the police handling this, not his place to play the hero. I’m telling you, Song Ranmin, if this rescue has any mishaps, you will take full responsibility for it!"

Hearing this, Song Ranmin straightened his chest and said, "No problem. If anything goes wrong, I’ll take full responsibility."

"Hmph!" Yue Yonggui immediately turned back, arranging people in a huff to prepare for an assault.

Since Li Yifei was already in position, the sharpshooter immediately locked onto the target, saying in the earpiece, "Sniper in position, target number two locked, please prepare."

Upon hearing this, Li Yifei immediately prepared, his body arching, muscles tensed, ready to explode at any moment.

"One, two... three!" The sharpshooter counted to the third number in a slow tempo, pulled the trigger with a bang, the bullet exiting the chamber, quickly flying towards target number two. At the same time, Li Yifei rammed into the back door with his shoulder. The backdoor opened inward, making it easier to break through. He didn’t choose the window because there was an outer protective grille, which would waste more time removing.

Not to disappoint, the sharpshooter’s bullet struck his target, a direct headshot, and the opponent was just showing a tiny flaw. He was holding onto a hostage, intending to take a look out the window, but got his head blown off instead.

The opponent didn’t expect the police to actually dare to shoot so decisively, which made him careless. The other one, the sniper, upon seeing his companion suddenly get a headshot, hurriedly got up from the bed, grabbed the gun in his hand, intending to kill a hostage.

At that moment, Li Yifei burst in, all his muscles taut, exuding immense power and speed, rushing into the room where the hostages and criminals were in the blink of an eye.

The steel needles in his hand shot out continuously. The first steel needle from Li Yifei wasn’t aimed at the criminal but at a male hostage blocking his way, so Li Yifei shot him down. The second steel needle was aimed at the man in black, who was still wearing a mask, so Li Yifei couldn’t see his face clearly.

The man in black just wanted to shoot when he heard a noise from behind, hurriedly turned his head, saw Li Yifei rushing in, and was so frightened he immediately dodged to the side, but it was too late. A steel needle pierced through a layer of wooden paneling, accurately piercing his body. The steel needle sank in entirely, causing the man in black to cry out in pain immediately, but he didn’t drop the gun, still struggling to raise it, preparing to shoot Li Yifei.

Li Yifei was in mid-air, made a strange maneuver to avoid the shot, and a few steel needles flew out, piercing the arm of the man in black, making him unable to hold the gun anymore.

After landing, Li Yifei propelled himself forward with his hands, pouncing on the man in black like a leopard. Upon entering, he saw another bandit already shot in the head on the ground, so he only needed to focus all his efforts on the man in black.

Seeing his partner dead and knowing he couldn’t escape, the man in black tried to pull the grenade pin on his body. Li Yifei stepped on him, stopping the action. Pressing down with his foot, the man’s arm shattered instantly, and he let out a cry.

"Keep running," Li Yifei grinned wickedly, crushing the man’s other hand and immobilizing both legs, rendering the man in black unable to move.

Outside, Yue Yonggui was so angry he wanted to kill someone. He had realized the Mile City police might act independently, so he began preparing to instruct his men, but before he finished, they had already acted on their own.

"Do you even care about the hostage’s safety? Do you realize that if something happens to the hostages, you’ll be in trouble even if the situation is resolved?" Yue Yonggui wanted to execute the few who acted on their own. Just then, he saw one bandit get shot in the head inside, and another was tackled by Li Yifei, seemingly resolved.

It was like a roller coaster ride; Yue Yonggui was stunned as the two bandits were swiftly dealt with, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.

Did they really rescue the hostages? Yue Yonggui blinked in disbelief at the scene.

Song Ranmin exhaled in relief, unclenching his fist. He bore the pressure, knowing he’d be the first held accountable for any mishaps. Yue Yonggui would certainly target him first.

Lin Qiong also relaxed. Indeed, Li Yifei was her hero, the one she admired and trusted the most in the world, capable of doing anything.

The sniper calmly put away his gun, but his eyes remained on the room.

Despite his frustration, Yue Yonggui instructed the SWAT team to take over the scene and safely extract the hostages.

In an instant, Li Yifei controlled the man in black, reconnecting the broken trail of clues. The hostages were petrified, having witnessed death and gunfire, unable to cope. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Li Yifei smiled at them and said, "You’re all safe now. Just follow the police out in a moment."

Frightened, they expressed their gratitude, and Li Yifei merely nodded. Remembering something, he quickly crouched down, tore off the man’s mask, and pried open his mouth to check for poison.

Suddenly, Li Yifei sensed a chill from behind. He immediately fell forward and launched two steel needles. As he turned around, he saw a young woman among the hostages throwing several darts at him. Li Yifei had been facing away from her and only had time to turn around, raising his arm to block the darts.

Swish, swish, swish. Thud, thud, thud. Three darts hit Li Yifei’s arm in a triangular formation, while his steel needles flew out, hitting the woman’s neck. She clutched her neck, mumbling something as blood began to spurt from it.

The other hostages panicked, scrambling to escape, only to be caught by the SWAT team bursting through the door.

Three steel needles pierced through his body, and Li Yifei cursed himself for being careless. The intel indicated only two bandits, and he assumed the same, never considering a third, especially a female, would blend among the hostages.

With three darts embedded in his arm, Li Yifei immediately sensed something was wrong. Ignoring the woman’s condition, he quickly circulated his True Qi to expel the darts. Wrapping the wound in True Qi, he noticed the distinctive green on the darts, realizing they might be poisoned.

The SWAT team rushed in, and Li Yifei quickly shouted, "Detain the hostages; there might be more of them here. This woman is one of the bandits."

Seeing the scene inside, the SWAT team was also momentarily stunned, wondering, weren’t there only supposed to be two? They swiftly restrained the woman, finding a dagger and a row of darts on her, then rushed to secure the other hostages for searches and information checking.

The man in black glared angrily at Li Yifei, but with a bullet in his waist, immobilized arms and legs, he couldn’t move and was soon taken into custody by the SWAT team.
