Shan Ming’s eyes were shining with excitement. He raised his arm silently and aimed at the shoulder of the hand holding the gun in the faint moonlight. He fiercely threw the bayonet and jumped down.
The man turned back in shock. The aim came a little off and it stabbed him in the shoulder blade. He let out a muffled cry, but still held onto his gun and tried to aim at Shan Ming.
Shan Ming had already jumped onto him in an instant, using his legs to clamp the man’s arms and waist tightly together. He pulled out his bayonet and blood splattered everywhere. The man’s forearm was pierced right through.
Shan Ming leaned back with force, and the man fell to the ground with him as Shan Ming flip him over against his back.
The moment that person hit the ground, Shan Ming quickly jumped up and pressed his knee against the person’s neck bone, saying in a low voice, “Don’t move.”
The triangular bayonet was also known as the “Bloodletting Knife.” Due to its aggressive design, when it is stabbed into the human body and twisted half a turn, the wound will form a Y-shaped hole that cannot be sewn up, and the bleeding will be fierce. In addition, the skin around the wound will often turn ivory pale. It was a very vicious and deadly weapon.
Shan Ming gently twisted the bayonet. The ground under the man’s body was already soaked with his blood. Shan Ming stared at him for half a second and spoke in an affirmative tone in Mandarin, “You’re Chinese.”
The man was suppressed and unable to move. Large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead as he watched his blood being drained. The pain in his body and the psychological pressure were both devastating. Fortunately, he was only stabbed in the arm. If it were an internal organ or something similar, he would most likely have already gone into shock from blood loss.
“Why are you following me? Is Mutai’s disappearance related to you guys? Are you guys the ones who planted the bomb in the apartment?” This chapter was taken from g.com without permission.
The man gritted his teeth and said, “There’s a Chinese boy that went missing on the China-Myanmar border, is he in your hands?”
Shan Ming viciously twisted his bayonet and said, “You haven’t even answered my question, you dare to question me instead?”
The man groaned in pain, “Don’t even think about getting anything out of me!”
Shan Ming reached into his chest and found the walkie-talkie. He spoke into it, “I’m going to kill him now. Do you want him to leave any last words for you?”
The walkie-talkie emitted a rustling sound that was particularly jarring in the silent alley.
After a while, a cold and inflexible robotic voice came from the other side, “We can talk about this.”
“Talk? You mean when you send more people here to talk to me?” Shan Ming said coldly, “Answer my question.”
The cold voice responded, “I’ll answer three questions that I’m able to answer, and then you let him go.”
Shan Ming snorted, “You’re talking nonsense. It seems that his life is only worth three insignificant questions.”
“It is his honor to sacrifice himself for the national interest.” This story is hosted at g.com.
Shan Ming didn’t want to waste any more time, he said, “Fine, three questions. First, what do you want with us? Second, why do you want that child? Third, who is that child?”
“I can answer the first two. That child is very important to us. I want you to return him to us, and we can arrange a ship to send you guys out to sea.”
Shan Ming snorted, “My ass, you’ll kill us, just like you did to our employer.”
“So you admit that the child is in your hands?”
Shan Ming realized that he had been tricked into talking and became annoyed. He said, “Since you have gone to great lengths to find us here, you should have already figured it out. Why ask? I won’t give you the child, but if you keep pursuing, perhaps I can give you a part of him instead.”
The person fell silent for a moment and then said, “Harming him won’t do you any good, and you will definitely regret it.”
“If you don’t want me to harm him, then stay far far away from us,” Shan Ming said. He knew that he couldn’t return the child to these people, otherwise they will be facing enemies of the state power without any bargaining chips. These people will definitely want to silence them forever.
The person said, “Release my soldier first, I will let you guys leave on a ship.”
Shan Ming realized that they would not be able to leave smoothly tonight, but still wanted to avoid angering them. He took out his dagger and spoke fiercely into the radio, “Keep this in mind, don’t come bothering us, or I’ll cut the kid into pieces and send him to you piece by piece.”
He threw the walkie-talkie at the soldier who was following him and quickly disappeared into the night.
