Chapter 748 Can we respect the facts?
Bai Wanwan knew that if she turned a blind eye, many more people would lose their lives in this accident.

Looking at Lu Yao, who was being held hostage, the girl's face was deathly pale, and her eyes were filled with tears of despair.

In the blink of an eye, she had made her decision.

With Zhu Xiu and Yin Ze present, they were confident they could control the situation.

In case... in case things really get out of control, they still have a last resort: they can simply find a place to travel back to the Beast World.

"I'll get close to him and lower his guard. Once he puts the knife down, you can make your move."

Zhu Xiu grasped her hand, disapproving, "You can't take the risk."

“Zhu Xiu is right, Wanwan, you can’t go there.”

Bai Wanwan turned to look at the girl who was almost scared out of her wits, remembering how the girl had smiled at her kindly several times.

"It's alright. I'm just trying to lower his guard. I'm not really going to take him hostage. You guys just have to play it by ear."

After saying that, she raised her voice, deliberately making it soft and clear, "Sir, how about I become the hostage instead? I'm calmer than her, I won't move around, and you'll be easier to control me."

As she spoke, she pulled her hands away from Zhu Xiu's.

“Zhu Xiu, I believe you can control him.”

Zhu Xiu originally didn't want to get involved in these matters, but Wanwan seemed determined to help.

He had no choice but to let go, but his body was already prepared to act at any moment.

Seeing this, Bai Wanwan slowly raised her hands, indicating to the assailant that she had no weapon, and calmly met the thug's frantic eyes.

Her initiative and composure clearly took the criminals by surprise. In addition, Lu Yao was so frightened that her legs went weak, which made him spend a lot of energy. He even thought about killing the other party with one blow and then taking another hostage.

"Okay, come here." The thug glanced at the two tall men behind Bai Wanwan.

Out of caution, they did not rashly harm anyone again.

Bai Wanwan nodded and slowly approached.

The thugs slowly loosened their grip, preparing to throw Lu Yao aside and grab Bai Wanwan.

Just as he was about to make his move, Zhu Xiu and Yin Ze, who were originally seven or eight meters apart, moved at the same time.

Their figures darted out like ghosts!
There are no fancy moves, only extreme speed and precision honed through countless trials and tribulations and ingrained in one's instincts.

Everyone only saw a blur before their eyes, and at the same time, the soft crack of bones dislocating and the thug's muffled groan of pain rang out. The dangerous knife had already flown out of his hand and landed on the ground with a "clang".

Yin Ze twisted the assailant's arms behind his back, pinning him to the ground with clean, swift, and astonishingly powerful movements, like a top agent straight out of a movie.

Bai Wanwan had already been held in Zhu Xiu's arms, shielding her from all danger.

Lu Yao lost her support and fell to the ground.

The crisis was averted, and a moment of deathly silence followed, before an even greater uproar erupted.

Some people were crying in shock, some started making phone calls, and many more people's phone cameras were all pointed at Yin Ze and Bai Wanwan.

They were all wondering if they had just imagined it, or if those two were special forces soldiers.

How could ordinary people move so fast? It seemed like only a blink of an eye, and they were gone in a flash.

Because they were so nervous and the events happened in the blink of an eye, they even wondered if they were hallucinating.

Bai Wanwan's heart skipped a beat.

Trouble!
In modern society, such extraordinary skills and their special identities would certainly attract trouble if they stayed. The assailant was already on the ground, his wrist injured, unable to get up or commit any more crimes.

"let's go!"

Once they leave, doing good deeds anonymously, the police are unlikely to bother them because they are people who help others.

The three turned to leave this place of trouble.

"Please wait a moment!" Lu Yao broke free from the support of others and staggered after them, her voice still trembling, but her eyes were fixed on Bai Wanwan's face. "Th-thank you so much! Thank you so much!"

She was panting, still shaken, but looking at Bai Wanwan's profile, an increasingly strong sense of familiarity and absurd speculation surged through her heart.

Of all the photos in President Fu's study that he'd looked at countless times, this one in front of him was more refined and perfect, with a completely different aura, but the bone structure and contours...

Impulsiveness overwhelmed reason, or perhaps the chaos of surviving a disaster made her blurt out: "Excuse me... do you know a girl named Bai Wanwan?"

Bai Wanwan's steps, which were about to leave, suddenly stopped as if nailed to the spot.

She slowly turned her head to look at Lu Yao, a fleeting and profound look of astonishment crossing her eyes, but she tried her best to remain calm: "Why are you asking this?"

After giving birth, her figure, facial features, and skin all improved, and there is still a significant difference compared to before.

"I... I just feel that you and her look... really alike. Maybe you're related by blood."

Bai Wanwan calmed down and shook her head, "I don't know her."

The light in Lu Yao's eyes dimmed. "I'm sorry, it's just that you two look too alike. She's the girl my idol deeply loved; their love story is known throughout Haicheng. I..."

Their love story?
What love story did they have? She was just dumped.

Before Lu Yao could finish speaking, the increasingly clear sound of police sirens from afar drew Bai Wanwan's attention away, and she didn't even hear what Lu Yao said afterward.

They had to leave before the police arrived.

"Sorry, we have to go now."

Lu Yao nodded hurriedly and thanked them again, "Thank you..."

After smiling at her, Bai Wanwan quickly turned and left.

As Lu Yao watched their departing figures, she suddenly felt a little puzzled: Why did she look like she was fleeing in panic?

Bai Wanwan, Yin Ze, and Zhu Xiu quickly left the chaotic crowd and exited through another gate of the residential area. Their figures soon disappeared into the shadows intertwined with the deepening twilight and the newly lit streetlights.

***

The harrowing knife attack at Yihe Residential Community was captured on video by multiple eyewitnesses on their phones because it involved highly viral elements such as "disarming the knife with bare hands" and "a handsome passerby's act of bravery."

The video clips, after being edited, accompanied by tense music and exaggerated titles, quickly went viral and spread across major social media platforms and short video websites.

#Knife-wielding thief spotted in Yihe Residential Area#
#Surveillance footage captures the coolest knife-fighting moment#
#What kind of god-like good looks do ordinary people have?#
#This guy's looks are perfect for me#
Similar topics quickly gained popularity, climbing to the bottom of the trending topics list and continuing to rise.

The focus of the video was mostly on Zhu Xiu's swift, cheetah-like movements, Yin Ze's steady and reliable cooperation, and Bai Wanwan's stunningly beautiful face.

Although some publishers blurred or partially obscured the faces of the three individuals to protect their privacy, their outstanding features and profiles were still clearly discernible.

"This is clearly AI; how could it possibly have such skills?"

"Can't you respect the facts? The person who made the video actually used special effects just to get attention."
