Part-time bodyguard

Chapter 455 You reap what you sow
The bodyguards were confiscated of their guns. Bai Qi picked up Hai Lan, and the group walked from the tunnel to the secret room, and then walked into the hall through the collapsed wall.

Facing the gangsters with guns pointed at him, Dolan remained calm: "It seems I have no other choice. My only condition is to leave safely."

The female leader said, "Why don't we first tell us how to find Duanmu?"

Dolan said: "Our cell phones are a unified system. With the help of the technicians at headquarters, as long as I talk to him long enough, I can accurately locate his location."

The female leader said, "Please."

Dolan said: "How can we ensure our safety?"

The female leader said, "Since we can have a friendly conversation, it means there is room for us to cooperate in the future. Now I know your identities. If you die, it will be meaningless to me. So, please state your names and positions now. Since it is a cooperation, I hope everyone can be sincere."

Dolan said: "You know our names, but what you don't know is our duties in the Knights."

The female leader looked down at Hai Lan and said, "I don't know her identity, nor hers, nor his. To be honest, I only know the names of the three of you, Anthony, Dolan, and Zhao Shu."

Duanmu whispered, "I'll go hide my phone."

Cui Jian and Gui Yi nodded.

Cui Jian watched Duanmu go away, quietly took out Qisha's mobile phone, and sent a short email. Gui Yi saw Cui Jian's private operation from the corner of her eyes, but she didn't dare to ask or look, because who knows what these people are doing. In comparison, she is as pure as a baby in this circle.

Negotiations were still going on inside. The basic situation had been confirmed, and Duolan agreed to help the female leader lure out Duanmu. The only question was what guarantees the female leader could provide to convince Duolan that she would release them after he helped her. Duolan and his group were not ordinary people, and it would be difficult to achieve their goals by only threatening their lives or their companions.

A few minutes later, Duanmu Mo came back and brought Mu Yao and Xiao Cai back. Due to their low combat effectiveness, they were arranged in a shelter 50 meters away.

Gui Yi's phone rang. When they were on duty, they set up their phones and hung the Bluetooth headset on their ears. They clicked the headset and the call was connected. Gui Yi said softly: "Hello."

Shengzi: "Look for Duanmu."

Gui Yi took off the headset and handed it to Duanmu. Duanmu said: “Hello.”

Shengzi: "I'm Qi Sha, do you need help?"

Duanmu looked back and asked, "Do you have anyone near Daye Mountain?"

Shengzi: “Yeah.”

Duanmu remembered: "You want to kill Duolan."

Shengzi: "..." No answer
Duanmu said: "What are the conditions?"

Shengzi: "We can only provide you with certain help. There are no conditions. The two-headed dog said that you are not only a qualified partner, but also a friend of our Seven Killers. Since it is dangerous to meet you, we have the obligation to help you. Stop talking nonsense. How many people do you have? Can we kill everyone except you?"

Duanmu said: "Me, Cui Jian, Gui Yi, Xiao Cai, a Turk, and Hai Lan who was held hostage."

Shengzi: "I don't have any photos or information about Xiaocai and the Turks."

Duanmu said: "When it is safe, they will stay with me."

Just as he said this, Cui Jian, who was leaning against the window and listening in the corner, waved his hand. Duanmu immediately tapped the headset twice to indicate that he could not speak. Gui Yi leaned to the other side. The three of them did not dare to show their heads rashly, and listened attentively to the voice inside.

Duolan called Duanmu, but no one answered. Ruth contacted the Knights' technical department, and the technical department responded: "We have determined the approximate location. The target mobile phone uses the base station of Zhao Family Manor. You continue to dial, and through signal feedback, you can gradually narrow the range."

The female leader heard the response from the technical department and nodded. Dolan continued to call Duanmu. After four consecutive calls, the technical department gave the exact location, which was at the Black Water Pond.

The female leader: "That's right. Not long ago, the personnel in the Blackwater Pond lost contact, and even the reinforcements were nowhere to be found. There were also helicopters hovering overhead." The female leader did not send more reinforcements to attack the Blackwater Pond, but instead moved one of the air defense teams to cover the Blackwater Pond with its defense area, hoping to catch the enemy by surprise.

Now that it was confirmed that Duanmu was at the Black Water Pond, there was no need to hesitate. The female leader contacted the captain and mobilized 20 armed men to surround the Black Water Pond. At the same time, she took the two groups of people on the scene and left with him, leaving Amin and ten other gangsters to guard Duolan.

There is no road leading directly from the ancestral hall to the Black Water Pond. The female leader needs to drive to the post first, then walk along the road to a location a few hundred meters away from the Black Water Pond. As for whether to drive directly into the Black Water Pond area, it depends on the specific road conditions.

After the female leader left, Amin took out a cigarette and gestured in a friendly manner: "Want one?"

Dolan waved his hand: "Thank you, no thanks."

A Ming called out, "Bring some cushions."

The gangsters at the door took a few cushions from the car and brought over a carpet. Duolan and the others were indeed tired of standing, so they sat on the carpet. Bai Qi was the only one who continued to stand.

A Ming looked at him with an unfriendly look: "Mr. Bai, please sit down." It is more difficult for someone who sits down to make trouble than for someone who stands the whole time.

Bai Qi sat down helplessly.

Ah Ming said: "Mr. Bai, I have also been a bodyguard. I have long heard of you and Li Ran's names."

Bai Qi chuckled and followed up the topic by asking, "Have you also been a bodyguard?"

While they were chatting, Cui Jian and Duanmu Zuoyou walked through the corridor to the main gate of the ancestral hall, where there were two sentries. Cui Jian didn't have a muffler, but it didn't matter.

Cui Jian pulled out the dagger, approached ten meters away and threw the dagger, while holding up the gun. After all, his success rate of throwing the dagger was not high, and he also had to be careful not to injure the opponent but not kill him.

The dagger flew out, piercing Sentry A's cheek, but was blocked by his teeth. At the same time, Duanmu's dagger flew out, and the dagger spun, and the handle hit Sentry B's head.

Cui Wushibu complained to Duan Yibaibu in his heart: Idiot teammate!

Before the sentries could react, two gunshots were heard and both sentries fell to the ground and died.

As the gunshots rang out, the remaining eight gangsters immediately turned to the main door. Cui Jian stood up and fired two shots through the window. Amin ordered, "Take cover."

The eight criminals received the order and immediately ran to the nearest load-bearing column. Gui Yi, who was at the back, stood on tiptoe and aimed his gun through the window. Although the eight criminals had cover in front of them, they had no cover behind them. In Gui Yi's view, they were eight dead targets.

He pulled the trigger and the bullet flew out of the gun, entering Amin's left ear. Amin fell to the ground and died on the spot.

After Gui Yi fired a shot, he immediately bent over and changed his position, thinking: I told you to wear a red mask. All the criminals were either wearing ski caps or black and gray masks, only Ah Ming and Ah Hong were wearing red masks. Gui Yi didn't know what they were thinking.

Cui Jian and his two companions formed a Y shape to surround the seven criminals. The good news was that the hall was empty and the criminals could not defend the back if they defended the front. The bad news was that the walls of the ancestral hall were not bulletproof.

After another person was shot dead, the criminals simply gave up hiding and fired at the wall with their AK-47 rifles, forcing Cui Jian and his two companions to fall down the corridor and use the steps as cover.

Duanmu and Shengzi kept in touch: "Hey, where are your people?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a bullet flew into the hall and hit a gangster in the chest, penetrating his bulletproof vest. There was only a small hole for the entrance and a big hole for the exit.

The sight of Lao Riyao showed the wooden carvings on the upper part of the wall. He could not see the whole target, but could only find the target's identity part through the gaps in the carvings, and then he calculated the target's position based on this. He was on the side of the ancestral hall, on the left side of the Y. In his sight, the gangster had no cover. The second bullet knocked down another person, and the gangsters began to panic. Some ran towards the collapsed secret room, so the other gangsters ran to the secret room. After the gangsters gave up their positions, Cui Jian and Duanmu immediately counterattacked and suppressed the gangsters in the secret room. It was just that the distance was far, and their pistols were not as practical as the opponent's assault rifles, so they did not dare to approach quickly.

Cui Jian emptied a magazine, leaned against the load-bearing column, replaced the new magazine, and then raised his gun to shoot a bodyguard sitting on the ground in the head. The bodyguard was a Knights bodyguard, who was originally lying on the ground, but suddenly stood up, and Cui Jian shot him to death without mercy.

Anthony accused: "Cui Jian, you are killing people."

Cui Jian fired another shot, killing Anthony in front of everyone: "If you don't want to die, don't move. I don't have time to defend against you now."

Zhao Shu was horrified. Dolan and Ruth were so shocked when they saw their old friend's body that they couldn't believe it.

Judge: Defendant, why did you kill the deceased?
Mo Ling: They kidnapped and held my client hostage. After my client escaped, he encountered them again, so my client had every reason to suspect that they would attack him.

Cui Jian: It’s not that troublesome. I used the criminal’s pistol.

The remaining four gangsters had lost their will to fight. They could not find shelter in the secret room. They had to either fight head-on with Cui Jian and his men or retreat deeper into the tunnel. One of the gangsters said, "Let's go," and led the others deeper into the tunnel.

They decided to hide in the tunnel first, ask the female leader for help, and then attack the enemy from both sides. This was undoubtedly the best way at the moment.

……

After driving away the criminals, Cui Jian asked Gui Yi to stand guard with him, and said to Duanmu, "Three minutes."

Three minutes was the time Duanmu had to deal with Duolan. Duanmu was frantic. How should he deal with her? What could he do? He couldn't bring himself to kill Duolan, and he didn't want to escape with Duolan, so he could only let them go. Duanmu walked over, squatted down to check Hailan's vital signs, and then picked Hailan up.

Taking two steps back, Duanmu said, "We are going into the mountains."

Dolan nodded.

Duanmu said: "We will talk about our business later."

Dolan: “Okay.”

Duanmu nodded in response and turned to leave: "Gui Yi, contact Xiao Cai and ask him to come over with Türkiye."

Gui Yi finished the connection and began to retreat with Cui Jian. Cui Jian turned the gun, pointed it at Duolan, and pulled the trigger. Gunshots rang out, Duanmu looked back and saw Duolan lying in a pool of blood. Before Duanmu could even utter a word, Ruth's head was blown up. Then came Zhao Shu, who looked terrified. The Knights' bodyguard tried to escape, but unfortunately the bullets ran faster than him.

In the end, only Bai Qi was left.

Duanmu roared, "What are you doing?"

Cui Jian said: "I killed Anthony."

Duanmu was blocked from talking. Yes, Cui Jian killed Anthony, how could Dolan let Cui Jian go? Cui Jian didn't want to be retaliated by the Knights, so he had to kill him. Duanmu was not a person who liked to shirk responsibility. After thinking through this link, he took the blame on himself. In his opinion, Cui Jian was forced to kill people to protect himself.

Gui Yi: I don’t know anything. I don’t want to be silenced.

Cui Jian glanced at him and said: Shut up.

Gui Yi: Yes.

Duanmu was stunned for a long time, then asked: "What is it like now?"

Bai Qi sighed deeply and said with a wry smile: "Shoot." He thought that given his relationship with Cui Jian, it would be impossible for him to get Cui Jian's pardon.

Everyone seemed to think so, but the rebellious Cui Jian put away his gun and asked, "Want to go together?"

Before Bai Qi could come back to his senses, Cui Jian asked again, "Are you going into the mountains?"

"Ah."

Bai Qi said: "Then I will go down to the river."

Duanmu said: "The fishing boat has most likely been destroyed."

Bai Qi: "I can swim."

Duanmu: "Are you sure?" Swimming in a wild river at night without proper equipment is not a good idea. You can't tell the depth of the water and it's easy to get cut. You can't see the rapids of the river and your body will hit the rocks.

Bai Qi nodded, looked at the body of the criminal, and saw that Cui Jian did not react, so he walked over to get a pistol and took back his personal belongings. During this period, Bai Qi was mentally prepared to be killed by Cui Jian at any time. To the surprise of him, Duanmu and Gui Yi, Cui Jian did not shoot.

While Bai Qi was looting weapons, Cui Jian and the other two had already left the ancestral hall and met Mu Yao and Xiao Cai. Without further ado, the five of them headed for the path on the right. Cui Jian led the way, using the mobile phone positioning system to lead everyone into Daye Mountain.

Bai Qi left two minutes late. As soon as he left the ancestral hall, he saw the lights of the car coming at him. He quickened his pace and walked down the narrow stairs to the river. After floating on the Daye River for more than an hour, Bai Qi finally found a chance to go ashore and contacted the police immediately. When questioned by the police, Bai Qi told the truth, but he concealed the fact that Duolan and others were killed by Cui Jian, and only said that the gangsters killed Duolan and others.

72 hours later, Li Ran and his lawyer took Bai Qi away. In the car with only two people in it, Bai Qi asked himself: "Why didn't Cui Jian kill me?"

Li Ran replied: "Because you have done good deeds."

Bai Qi: "I'm serious."

Li Ran: "I am serious too."

Bai Qi frowned and thought. Li Ran took out a file bag from the left side of his seat, threw it into Bai Qi's arms and said, "This is the identity I asked someone to make for you."

Bai Qi opened the file bag and took a look. Inside were passports, social security cards and other documents, as well as $10,000 in cash. Bai Qi said, "I understand this, but..."

Li Ran asked: "Then think about it, which organization have you helped?"

After listening to Li Ran's suggestion, Bai Qi thought of an answer that was not very reliable.

A few months ago, when he was still the captain of Nemo's execution team, he arrested the butler of Qi Sha. At that time, he keenly realized that the butler was a bait, and thus deduced that Qi Sha would have a major operation in the near future, and found clues. But he chose to keep silent and ran away with the money before the Bloody Christmas operation.

Strictly speaking, Bai Qi did not help Qi Sha. He just did not reveal Qi Sha's plan and allowed Qi Sha's Bloody Christmas to be carried out smoothly.

If Cui Jian didn't kill himself because of this incident, doesn't that mean Cui Jian is Qi Sha?

Bai Qi asked: "Did you know something a long time ago?"

Li Ran sighed and said, "Being on par with you is the greatest insult to me."
