Chapter 538
She Must Have Been Coerced
The instant they saw Yun Jian, the police who had been surrounding the martial club, the officer who updated Ai Guoxun and Ge Junjian regarding the current situation, and both named men were befuddled.
Officer Bao who was the policeman to oversee the scene’s law and order, specifically, was flabbergasted. He had been here since Jay came out to blackmail them—if they sent anyone in or caught any of them, the hostages would be killed.
Furthermore, those criminals inside were equipped with guns! No matter how skilled those who were taken captives, it was impossible they triumphed against those with firearms!
Officer Bao later received news that candidates of Advanced Special Forces, Battling Dragons, and official Advanced Special Forces soldiers, Team Monarch, were in there too.
Despite both teams being in the martial club, they were surely repressed—the criminals knew what they were doing!
Officer Bao did not know where these criminals came from, but when he was there with the team to capture them, they were already on the loose.
What they were doing before that was an attempt to assassinate F Province’s deputy mayor! Their mission failed. Fortunately, nothing happened to the deputy mayor except some minor shock.
The culprits who were exposed fled to the martial club, then, and held everyone there hostage.
It seemed that they must have known that they were unable to escape since the province was in a lockdown, so they ran into the club to buy themselves time.
Officer Bao was not slow. He had long guessed that these criminals most probably belonged to an organization. He was already planning to inform the superiors for more backup when the young girl appeared at the martial club entrance out of the blue.
“Don’t go over! Not now! It could be a trick!” Officer Bao was about to go to Yun Jian’s location with some men only for Ai Guoxun to stop them with a righteous air.
Since Ai Guoxun was a higher-up of F Province’s Advanced Special Forces, Officer Bao halted his steps at his words.
It could possibly be a trick. Otherwise, how was Yun Jian the only one to come out? What about the criminals?
Ai Guoxun did not think that the girl alone could subdue the bunch of bad guys. They had guns! No matter how skilled she was, could she avoid their guns and overpower them instead? Hah, she was not one of those terrifying presences famed worldwide!
At the sight of everyone pausing their track, Ge Junjian did not find it in himself to blame them. After all, the police had to consider the bigger picture during circumstances like this.
Ge Junjian headed for the girl himself. He knew Yun Jian well. She had once killed the tenth person on the international assassin chart. What could a bunch of gunned criminals do to her?
Actually, when Ge Junjian first heard that his team was caught in the martial club as hostages, his heart lurched. While he had a son, his son was not exactly close to him, thus he treated the seven youngsters of Team Monarch like his own children.
His first reaction when he was informed was what he was supposed to tell Qin Yirou should something happen to Yun Jian. From the woman’s past actions, Ge Junjian knew that Yun Yi and Yun Jian were Qin Yirou’s life and everything.
Just because of this alone, Ge Junjian must not let anything happen to Yun Jian!
When he walked toward her, the girl was similarly making her way to them.
“Stand there! Stop right there!” Ai Guoxun retrieved his pistol from the casing on his hips once he saw Yun Jian making her way over—she was not even down the stairs yet. He pointed at Yun Jian and shouted at those around them, “Don’t come over! It’s a trick! She must have been coerced by the criminals!”
