Masuo Eri had been frightened a lot in the past few days. Moreover, the kidnappers were obviously too lazy to help the hostage with a reasonable diet. They adhered to the simple principle of "as long as he doesn't die" in terms of food, clothing and housing.
In this harsh environment, Masuo Eri was mentally exhausted and had been sleeping drowsily just now.
...Until she was startled by waves of strange muffled sounds, she managed to open her eyes relying on her remaining vigilance and instinctive fear of those sounds.
Then at a glance, he saw someone beating someone with a stick. Not sure if it was an illusion, but in a blur, Masuo Eri actually saw the same feeling of "pleasure" and "relaxation" on the face of the attacker.
The terrible emotion of being out of place.
What's even more frightening is that after she stared blankly for a few times, as if he noticed the movement on her side, the guy who hit him suddenly looked away from the half-dead man in black, turned his head and looked at her.
Masuo Eri: "!!!"
Jiang Xia: "..."
He looked at the frightened hostages, and then at the kidnappers who had lost their murderous intent. He first picked up the murderous intent that had been knocked out and put it away, then picked up the rope next to it, stepped on the man in black and tied it up, and tied it with a few knots.
Then he turned around and walked towards the woman in the corner.
As he got closer, the other party started to squirm in panic, wanting to shrink himself into the corner.
"Don't be afraid, I'm a good person." Jiang Xia noticed that her attitude was wrong, paused slightly, and hid the stick behind her back.
Then he showed a heartwarming smile.
He said softly: "Mr. Yamabe left a code for the outside world. I felt that the location the code referred to might be near the track, so I wanted to go over and have a look. Unexpectedly, I was unfortunately knocked down by brutal robbers on the way, and I caught this
.So after I woke up just now, I took advantage of the fact that the other men in black were not around to defend myself... I'm sorry, did I scare you?"
As he spoke, he untied the rope and gauze from Masao Eri's body.
Masao Eri had just woken up and was still a little confused.
Although she was still very frightened, she did understand Jiang Xia's words about "come and save them".
Look at the man in black who fell to the ground like a rice dumpling, plus he recognized that Jiang Xia is indeed a detective, and after putting away the stick, Jiang Xia is indeed a good person no matter how you look at it... Masuo Eri's nose
I felt sore, and the panic I felt just now gradually turned into happiness after escaping the danger, and in addition, I was also a little moved by the young detective's risk to save people.
If it weren't for her and Koichi, the detective wouldn't have been hit by a robber in a deserted alley.
...Although Masuo Eri was still asleep, she vaguely heard the sound of beating people. But now, when she thought about it carefully, she felt that it might be Jiang Xia fighting to the death with the gangsters, and Jiang Xia won in the end.
As for his expression when he hit someone, well, maybe it was an illusion caused by the angle... I have been in a bad state these past few days and am easily dazzled. Now Jiang Xia's gentle demeanor can be seen very clearly. What's more, there is a gunman on the other side. The detective knows
What happened to his stick?
As a victim of the men in black, Masuo Eri thought about the encounters between herself and Yamabe Koichi in the past few days, and soon half sincerely, half hypnotically forgot about the movement she had just woken up.
She rubbed her sore arms and legs, glanced at the door that was closed by Jiang Xia, and asked softly: "What should I do next? Is there anything I can do to help?"
Jiang Xia recalled the layout of the corridor outside and pointed out the direction to her: "You leave from the east staircase. There should be no robbers there." Because there is no murderous intent there...
"What about you?" Masao Eri has many things to worry about, "Koichi is still in their hands..."
"Don't worry and go, don't worry about us." Jiang Xia had a solemn expression of "I'll come to the rear", patted her shoulder, helped her up, and pushed her towards the door, "You are not here, Mr. Yamabe dares to resist. I will
Help him create opportunities..." As he spoke, he noticed that Masuo Eri was getting more and more worried, and Jiang Xia vaguely realized that it didn't sound safe to say so.
So he changed his words very naturally: "Of course, considering that it is more dangerous. Rather than clashing with the gangsters, I will give priority to hiding nearby and keeping an eye on the movements of the people in black - in case the robbers find that you are missing,
They may move with Mr. Yamabe, and I will stay here until I know which way they are going.
"In the meantime, you should find the police as soon as possible and call the police - my mobile phone is broken and cannot be used. The mobile phone of the man in black in the room is also a bit fragile. I took a look just now and it is broken... Your mobile phone is also broken.
They have all been taken away."
Seeing Masuo Eri nodded, Jiang Xia continued: "I didn't see the road clearly when I came here. I don't know if there is a police station around here. If the police station is too far, I have to ask passers-by to borrow their mobile phones for help -
You must remember to go further away before asking someone to borrow it. If there are their accomplices in plain clothes nearby and you bump into their hands, things will be in trouble."
"Yeah!" Masao Eri nodded solemnly after hearing this plan.
She also knew that she wouldn't be able to help by staying. Thinking that what Jiang Xia said made sense, she didn't delay any longer. She followed the direction pointed by Jiang Xia, opened the door gently, and left quietly.
Before going downstairs, she took one last look over. The young detective stood in the shadow by the door and nodded slightly towards her. There seemed to be a little determination and sadness in his eyebrows, looking like a hero who took the initiative to stay in the enemy's lair.
Masao Eri wiped away the emotional tears from the corners of her eyes, and walked downstairs quickly without staying any longer, preparing to rush to a nearby crowded place as fast as possible and borrow a phone to call the police as soon as possible.
…
When she went downstairs, a cat on dark clouds and snow silently jumped out and followed her.
The one wearing a cat vest this time is Ganfanmao Benmao.
Although the thinking ability is not comparable to that of humans, the cat still firmly remembers what Jiang Xia just took the time to tell him - if Masao Eri really meets the robbers' accomplices, then the cat will be responsible for changing the shape where no one can see it.
Like a leopard, he suppressed the murderous aura when no one was prepared, and waited for Jiang Xia to come and knock it out.
…
After one person and one cat left.
Jiang Xia stood up and looked to the other side expectantly, feeling the aroma of chicken rolls that was still clear across several walls.
But, before that...
There is another hostage next door.
Jiang Xia has never been in contact with Yamabe Koichi, so he doesn't know the policeman's habits very well. If he is a big mouth who loves publicity, it is best not to be seen by him when he is knocking out murderous intent... In short, he must first report this possible witness
sent away together.
...Fortunately, Masao Eri is here, so this is not a problem.
…
The windows of the room where Yamabe Koichi was imprisoned were tightly sealed, making the room a bit cold.
