Chapter 2481: Chapter 2545: Seizing the Gun
"Don’t move! Cease your aggressive actions immediately!" The man with the gun drew his pistol from his waist, released the safety, and aimed it at Li Yifei, shouting at the same time.
Li Yifei, highly sensitive to guns, felt it almost as soon as it was aimed at him. He abruptly turned around, his eyes sharp like lightning staring at the other party. After the man finished shouting, Li Yifei sneered coldly and said, "If I were you, I definitely wouldn’t do that!"
"You... don’t come any closer. Turn around and squat down right now. You’ve already violently resisted the law and attacked the police first. If you don’t stop now, don’t blame me..."
"Blame you for what? Six bullets in total, are you sure you can hit me?" Li Yifei’s face remained unchanged, still carrying a mocking smile as he asked.
The armed policeman hesitated a bit. His marksmanship might not be great, but at such close range, six bullets would be hard to miss, right? Yet, the other party was still advancing step by step, making him anxious. Having been a policeman for ten years, he had seen many arrogant people, but never one this brazen. Yet he had a feeling that the other party really wasn’t afraid of him, or rather, the gun in his hand, even though the safety was off and it was ready to fire at any moment.
Feeling uneasy, the policeman swallowed hard and said, "Don’t move, or I’ll really shoot."
"Alright." Li Yifei nodded. The policeman sighed in relief, thinking Li Yifei had listened, but soon he held his breath again because the other party didn’t stop but continued walking toward him.
Damn you! Weren’t you going to stop?! Who allowed you to keep moving! The policeman’s finger was on the trigger. Although tense, his finger was ready to pull it at any moment.
"Think it over!" Li Yifei lightly threatened the other.
"You’ll need to think it over yourself. Move one more step, and I’ll shoot." The policeman used his other hand to brace his gun-wielding wrist, the muzzle tracking Li Yifei’s movement slowly. Although it was a police-issued handgun, its power was sufficient. At this range, hitting the target would cause the bullet to pierce through the body, creating a large penetrating wound. If it hits the brain, needless to say, the bullet would pass right through, leaving a terrible wound.
But Li Yifei was indifferent, a faint smile on his face. These people were hateful, and the man aiming the gun at him was no exception. Li Yifei hated being targeted by firearms, a sentiment from his years in the military where this was intolerable. So, when he was within fifteen meters of the gunman, seeing the man about to fire, Li Yifei suddenly moved.
"Bang!" The gun finally fired, as the gunman couldn’t resist pulling the trigger. The gunshot rang out, the bullet shot quickly from the chamber, the shell ejected, but it didn’t hit Li Yifei because he had disappeared, darting forward in the blink of an eye. The gunman’s vision blurred, and Li Yifei reached him in an instant. With a grasp, he twisted the man’s arm, producing a snapping sound.
Since you dared to shoot, don’t blame me for breaking your arm. This is called fair play. Li Yifei’s eyes showed a hint of anger as he broke the man’s arm and simultaneously snatched the pistol.
The police-issued handgun changed hands, causing instant tension among the officers. They knew today’s incident could turn into a major problem if innocent people were harmed. Anxiety spread among them.
"Don’t be impulsive. Taking a gun is a serious crime!" shouted the policeman who had previously warned the instructor.
Instructor Yue Liang and Yang Jin felt shock when witnessing this, especially as Li Yifei, now holding a handgun, glanced their way. Their hearts sank; that look was filled with murder, making them think their end was near. With a five-bullet handgun at such close range... Could they still survive? One bullet would suffice.
Li Yifei merely gave a cold look. It didn’t matter to him if he hurt people, but killing was going too far. So, he glanced without lingering. Moments later, Li Yifei looked down at the still-hot gun, fumbled it in his hand, switched the safety off, and coldly said to the incapacitated, groaning policeman with a broken arm, "I told you, never aim a gun at me."
The policeman was speechless, pain leaving his face flushed, with tears and cold sweat streaming.
"Noisy!" Li Yifei raised his hand, ejected the magazine, and smashed it onto the man’s forehead. The gunman rolled his eyes and fell unconscious. Li Yifei then gripped the police-issued handgun tightly, and with a unpleasant crunching sound, crushed it into a twisted shape, deforming it until it seemed like a lump.
My god! Several nearby policemen simultaneously swallowed hard, stunned by Li Yifei’s abnormal strength. How did he do it? How could he crush a handgun into scrap metal with just a casual squeeze? Is he even human?
These policemen who hadn’t intervened realized their decision was wise. The young man before them truly wasn’t ordinary, and naturally not bound by ordinary laws.
Damn it, this Yang Jin—what was he thinking, provoking someone like him?
Yang Jin’s heart was bitter; who could have anticipated encountering such a person today? Watching this, the instructor’s eyes bulged in disbelief. Damn, this man definitely wasn’t ordinary. Was I crazy to mess with him? Suddenly, he felt incredibly foolish. The situation was out of control already, with shots fired, and would be hard to settle peacefully.
It’s not that it might not end peacefully, it simply cannot end peacefully now. The ones Li Yifei will remember are Yang Jin and the instructor, as well as the one who fired the shot just now. As for the others, they are not the main concern, and the three passing police officers don’t need to be dealt with.
When the gunshot was heard, people in the hospital were stunned for a moment. Many people watching the commotion from the ward’s windows, including Xu Yingying. She was startled by the gunshot, quickly ran to the window to take a look, and saw Li Yifei standing in the center with a few policemen fallen around him, while more officers spread out. She furrowed her brows, wondering if Li Yifei was making too big a fuss. Yet, since he decided to act this way, he must have his reasons, as long as he’s alright.
Xu Zhenguo and his wife expressed their concerns, and Xu Yingying in turn reassured them, "Dad, it’s okay, Yifei can handle it."
"They even fired shots..." Mother Xu was somewhat worried.
Xu Zhenguo sat up straight to look outside but couldn’t see what was happening. However, with guns fired, things really might not be turning out well.
"It’s alright, Yifei knows what he’s doing. Mom, Dad, don’t worry, he’s doing it for a reason." Xu Yingying comforted them.
Xu Zhenguo and his wife furrowed their brows; naturally, they didn’t feel they were wrong, but their son-in-law must have had his reasons for acting like this. Xu Zhenguo was also angry this time, as the perpetrator had actually brought in the police to counterattack. If it weren’t for their daughter and son-in-law, they, the elderly couple, might have been bullied, and perhaps would even have to compensate for the other party’s car damage. After all, the car was not lightly hit, and it was a sports car, so the repair cost might not be low.
Outside, after finishing everything, Li Yifei threw the twisted lump of metal at the feet of the instructor and Yang Jin, and standing over them, he said, "Keep calling people!"
Call more people, my ass! The instructor couldn’t muster up any anger now. The other party was a monster capable of crushing a pistol into a lump of metal. So what the hell was he doing, still trying to be tough? Better to just admit defeat, although it’s already too late.
Yang Jin’s face was ashen; he didn’t know what to do.
"Damn it, Yang Jin, what the hell is going on? Do you have a death wish to dare pulling something like this?" The instructor’s mind shifted, turning to question him.
"I..." Yang Jin hesitated, glanced at Li Yifei, whose smile provoked him, causing him to feel as if the other might strike hard at any moment. Yang Jin couldn’t hold out and confessed the whole thing. Indeed, he was entrusted by someone else to handle this matter. Bias was present from the start. They intended to turn this drag racing incident around, absolving the perpetrator of responsibility and even counterattacking. As for the extortion, it was something Yang Jin had improvised. Of course, before he could even start the extortion, Li Yifei had exposed him, and the plan naturally fell through. Now, coerced by Li Yifei and the instructor, he had no choice but to admit it.
"Damn you, Yang Jin, I’ll skin you alive later!" The instructor didn’t dare vent his anger on Li Yifei, so after hearing Yang Jin’s confession, he immediately directed his anger at him.
"Damn me all you want, but it’s useless. Instructor, do you even know whom I was helping?"
"Helping whom?" the instructor asked.
"Yue Liang, Young Master Yue. He called me to instruct me on this matter. Do you think I dared not help him? Who expected it would end like this!" Yang Jin said.
"Yue Liang?" Upon hearing the name, the instructor was somewhat at a loss, feeling as if he’d heard it somewhere before, but couldn’t recall at the moment.
Li Yifei naturally wouldn’t recognize him, but he realized Yang Jin’s motives now. As expected, someone had ordered it, and it seems to be the perpetrator. The identity of this Yue Liang was unclear.
Then Yang Jin said dispiritedly, "Instructor, Yue Liang is the son of our Director Yue!"
"Damn it!" The instructor understood immediately who was referred to upon hearing this, and though he’d realized it was the man’s son, he still cursed, "You really have lost your mind, not knowing right from wrong? Even if it were him, you shouldn’t handle things this way. You have really disgraced yourself."
Yang Jin was left speechless by the reprimand, inwardly cursing that the instructor was no saint either, considering the things done within the bureau. Just as he was about to say something, he felt a cold shiver and quickly looked towards Li Yifei, meeting his icy gaze.
"Who exactly is Yue Liang?" Li Yifei asked coldly.
The instructor quickly responded, "He’s the son of the district governor of our development zone. Our governor had him late, so he spoils him quite a bit."
