My Nightclub Landlady Chapter 126 Rescue The Hostages

However, there were only six.

Seeing two Chinese hostages, Qin Feng anxiously tore the tape off their mouths.

"Where is the emba.s.sy official?" Qin Feng asked. He'd received photos of the official before the mission, and didn't see him among the six gathered here now. The official was the only person considered absolutely indisposable on this mission.

The official carried too many of China's secrets. If they were leaked, it could mean chaos for the country.

One of the rescued Chinese men timidly pointed to a black cave behind the pa.s.sage, and nervously said, "He was taken away by two men before you came in." This man was called Xia Tainliang. He had been stationed here by a large domestic chemical enterprise and had held a senior leadership position in a branch factory.

"Green Dragon, protect them and evacuate. Go meet with Lei Ming. I'll go in and take a look."

Qin Feng took out his dagger, trying to cut off the rope tied to the hostages, when they all shouted, "No! Don't touch it!"

Green Dragon and Qin Feng were stunned at first. It was too dark in the cave to see the bomb that was wired through the rope tying the hostages. The method the enemy had used was old, but it was still a difficult bomb to discharge. If they made a mistake, the bomb would immediately explode, destroying everything within ten meters in any direction.

"Trust me."

Qin Feng took out his flashlight to look at the red and blue wires crisscrossing across the hostages, thinking about where to cut. Green Dragon leaned over, observing the situation closely. The six hostages sitting on the ground were praying silently, their eyes shut tight in fear. None of them noticed the gun that raised in the air in the shadows of the cave 20 meters away and aimed directly at Qin Feng.

The gunman hidden in the shadows smirked, and he got ready to pull the trigger, imagining the next moments vividly.

Xia Tianliang felt something was not right and had opened his eyes. He looked around, saw the gunman and shouted, "Be careful!" Carefully, so as not to disturb the red and blue wires, he skillfully kicked at Qin Feng and Green Dragon. Not expecting a blow from the hostages, the two men stumbled and fell to the ground. The kick saved their lives.

But Xian Tianliang was not so lucky. To prevent the bomb from exploding, all he could do was sit in place, directly in the gunman's line of fire.

Pop!

A bullet flew through the air and directly hit Xia Tianliang's shoulder, skimming the edge of his collarbone and flying out. His blood splashed onto Qin Feng's face.

Qin Feng saw the shot and heard the gunfire, so although he hadn't yet seen the enemy, he aimed his own gun and shot accurately.

Boom!

Without stopping, Qin Feng shot several more times, hitting enemies that none of them had seen in their thighs as they fled.

Seeing them run away, Qin Feng anxiously turned to Xia Tianliang and asked, "Are you all right?"

The man bravely said, "It's nothing. I'll be fine."

Qin Feng was impressed. He took out his first aid bag and threw it to Green Dragon, saying, "You help him bandage the wound. I'll go after those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds."

"Be careful." Green Dragon looked at Qin Feng heavily and said, "You must come back alive."

"The bullet that can hit me hasn't been made yet," Qin Feng said c.o.c.kily, then he entered the dark shadows and disappeared.

Qin Feng thought that the enemy's leader must be back here with the emba.s.sy official. Knowing that he could not fight the Chinese Special Combat Team, he had snuck back to the cave while Qin Feng was fighting with his subordinates outside to lay the bomb and take the official. As long as he had the official, he could demand any price from the Chinese government.

The men who had been shot ran through the cave, making turns through the labyrinth to throw Qin Feng off their trail. However, at least one of the men was leaving a blood trail that showed Qin Feng their exact path.

Meanwhile, up ahead, the leader stopped and grabbed the other man. "My bravest Ariza, we can't get away from him. You should make the right choice for the success of this mission."

In the face of Leader Harden's proposal, Ariza was stupefied. A tear appeared in the corner of his eye. He nodded and said in a dull voice, "Chief, I will stay to sniper the enemy."

"My warrior, you will be remembered by all. Your spirit will become a totem that floats over Crusade City forever." Then he disappeared.

Ariza hid in a corner, armed, waiting for the arrival of Qin Feng.

-----

In the quiet cave, water could be heard dripping from the ceiling. Qin Feng smelled gas and he slowed down, moving forward little by little.

He saw a crossroads up ahead, with three developed paths branching off. Qin Feng a.s.sumed that only one was the real path, and the other two were dead ends. He knew he had to move quickly and accurately to not lose the enemy.

At this moment, the ambushed Ariza leaned out and shot frantically. In the narrow corridor, dozens of bullets shot through the air.

Qin Feng moved quickly, stepping onto a rock and scaling the wall to the top of the cave. Ariza didn't expect him to do this, and he had to take a moment to adjust his gun. This brief pause gave Qin Feng the time he needed to fight back.

He jumped and shot in midair. Bang, bang, bang! Three shots, all into Ariza's chest. The corners of the injured man's mouth soon overflowed with blood, and his gun flopped to the ground.

Qin Feng did not stay long. After observing the footprints in the dirt, he ran down the path on the left. He was surprised by what he found.

As he ran, he saw a bright spot in the distance. It was an exit that led to dense brush, a small oasis in this desert.

Qin Feng stood at the entrance of the cave, observed his surroundings calmly, and found a place where the branches and leaves seemed to have been touched by human beings. He quickly entered the dense forest and walked for a while, listening to the birds and beasts nearby. This place was frightening. It was no less fierce than the Amazon Rainforest.

Qin Feng cautiously moved forward, and then sensed the slightest sound. The next moment, bamboo spears flew out of the forest on either side of him. Qin Feng immediately fell on his stomach and dodged the bamboo spears, but as he started to get up, a net fell from above. The perimeter of the net was pierced with sharp pieces of bamboo.

Qin Feng rolled on the spot, lifting his knife to meet the net. Just as he started to cut the net, he realized there was someone nearby.

The figure began shooting at Qin Feng. He had no time to cut the net. He tried to crawl toward the bushes nearby so he could get himself into a position to attack when he saw two grenades flying through the air toward him.

Boom!

Just before they exploded, Qin Feng had extracted himself from the net. He flew into the bushes and hid as the grenades exploded. Shrapnel dug into Qin Feng's body and he began to bleed. He ignored the pain and turned over.

Back in the clearing, Harden was surprised to not see a body blown to bits.

Qin Feng saw the emba.s.sy official, Liu Yian, with his arms tied behind his back, kneeling in the gra.s.s on the other side. He looked at Qin Feng with frightened eyes. His mouth was taped up, and he shook his head slightly, signaling to Qin Feng not to come.

Qin Feng knew the enemy might see him, but he had to try to rescue the official. If he didn't, Liu Yian might be killed before he had another chance. Qin Feng would rather die than not complete this mission successfully.
