Chapter 1050 It’s a big deal
The threats from Xu Tian, the ringleader, terrified the onlookers. Some turned and left quickly, while others stood there hesitant.
Some people believe that if Xu Tian doesn't die this time, he will definitely cause trouble afterward. In order to avoid being implicated, they want to go over and untie the ropes so that Xu Tian and the others can escape.
Seeing that many people were frightened by Xu Tian's threat and wanted to untie the ropes, someone in the crowd shouted, "Don't go over there! Didn't you hear what that hero said? Once the grenade explodes, everything within a two-zhang radius will be blown to pieces! Everyone back up! Back up quickly! He can't keep holding the grenade's spring clip forever. He'll eventually run out of strength. When he can't hold it anymore, the grenade will explode. Not only will they be killed, but anyone who gets close to them will also be blown to bits!"
Upon hearing this, those who were about to untie the ropes out of fear of retaliation dared not go any further.
"Who? Which bastard? Come out and let me see your face clearly. If you have the guts, stand up!" Xu Tian shouted, his face contorted with rage.
The onlookers remained silent, and no one stepped forward from the crowd.
Just then, the sound of running footsteps came from behind the crowd, and shouts came from the back of the crowd: "Make way, make way, the police are conducting a case, make way!"
The onlookers retreated to both sides of the street, and a squad leader wearing a black dog-skin uniform rode over on a bicycle with eight patrolmen carrying Hanyang-made shoes.
The squad leader jumped off the vehicle, parked the bicycle on the side of the street, and the police officers behind him dispersed to stand guard around the area.
"Wang Mazi, untie me! Untie me now!" Xu Tian, who was kneeling on the ground, shouted as soon as he saw the squad leader leading the team.
It turns out that the team leader was named Wang Mazi.
Hearing the shouts, Wang Mazi looked in the direction of the sound and was immediately startled: "Xu Tian? What are you doing here...?"
"Damn it, we've really messed up today. Enough with the nonsense, untie me first!" Xu Tian shouted.
"Oh, oh!" Wang Mazi agreed. This Xu Tian was the bureau chief's brother-in-law; otherwise, how could he be so arrogant? He couldn't afford to offend him. He quickly waved to a foot patrolman: "What are you all standing there for? Go over there and untie them!"
Just then, someone in the crowd shouted, "Don't go! That skinny guy has a grenade with the pin off. If he lets go, the grenade will explode!"
"What?" Wang Mazi and the patrolmen were all startled when they heard this, and their faces changed drastically.
"Don't move!" Wang Mazi immediately called out to the patrolman who had already walked to the post where the rope was tied.
Wang Mazi nervously circled around to a spot three meters behind the skinny monkey to check. Sure enough, he saw a hand grenade in the skinny monkey's hand.
His eyes darted around, and he immediately asked Xu Tian, "Xu Tian, who did it?"
Xu Tian quickly called out, "There's an out-of-towner staying in room 206 of this hotel!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a window on the second floor of the hotel facing the street opened, and a gun barrel protruded out.
Wang Mazi happened to see this, and he let out a strange cry and immediately lunged to the side.
With a "bang," Wang Mazi, who was lying on the ground, felt a chill on his head. When he looked up, he saw that his hat had been blown off. He broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly scrambled to hide under the eaves.
At this moment, the other patrolmen were also frightened and hid. When the onlookers heard the gunshot, they all turned and ran away in fright. In just a few breaths, the street was deserted.
"Anyone who dares to meddle again will not only have their hat blown off, but their head will be blown apart!" A stern warning came from the window on the second floor of the hotel.
Wang Mazi was terrified and furious. Hearing the threat, he immediately exploded, shouting, "How dare you! You dare to fire a gun and threaten us in front of the police! I, Wang Mazi, have never seen anyone so arrogant in my life! Brothers, follow me into the second floor of the hotel and catch this ruthless bandit. It will be a great achievement, and I'll put in a good word for you with the chief!"
"Yes!"
Zhang Yunhe never expected that he would encounter such a thing just because he came to meet his wife. Who can he complain to?
So, it's not true that you can live a peaceful life just by pretending to be a nice guy. He was robbed after just having dinner at a restaurant. He didn't cause trouble for anyone, but trouble came knocking on his door.
It's estimated that Xu Tian and his gang have harmed more than just one or two people. Judging from his arrogant demeanor and the fear of the people, this kind of deterrent power wasn't built up overnight.
Seeing that Wang Mazi and the others were about to rush up, Zhang Yunhe immediately took out a grenade, pulled the pin, and threw it out the window.
"boom--"
As the grenade exploded, several patrolmen were blasted away in the flash, and Wang Mazi, who was leading the team, was not spared either. He lay on his side on the ground, letting out screams of agony: "Ah—"
One of his legs was blown off, shrapnel embedded in his calf, and a lot of blood flowed out. Three other soldiers were blown off and lay motionless on the ground, their fate unknown.
Those who weren't hit by the blast hid under the eaves and watched Wang Mazi scream in agony. They were all pale and trembling.
"A few dollars a month, is it worth risking your life? If you don't want to die, get out of here. If you try to come in again, next time it won't just be grenades!"
The patrolmen hiding under the eaves looked at each other, and one of them said, "Brothers, this guy looks ruthless. I don't want to die. I have an old mother to take care of at home. I suggest we drag the captain and the brothers on the ground away and decide what to do when we get to a safe place. What do you guys think?"
The other four instructors hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
"Hero, don't shoot! Let's go, we'll take these brothers with us!"
A few seconds later, several foot patrolmen rushed out and dragged away their wounded comrades and those who had been killed in the explosion.
"Damn it, come back! Come back here and save me! I'll get my brother-in-law to promote you!" Xu Tian shouted.
But none of the instructors paid him any attention.
The police officers didn't go far. They dragged their companions, who had been killed or injured in the explosion, to a street corner 200 meters away. One of them went to make a phone call for help, while the other two called a rickshaw to take their injured companions to the hospital for treatment.
After what just happened, the street was deserted, with only Xu Tian and his group kneeling at the hotel entrance, cursing and swearing.
As Zhang Yunhe walked out of the hotel, he handed each of Xu Tian and three other thugs a hand grenade and told them to hold down the spring clips.
"Hold on tight, or you'll be blown to bits!"
After issuing a warning, Zhang Yunhe placed a booby trap at both the front and back entrances of the inn and told the innkeeper, "Innkeeper, from now on, don't accept any more guests. I've booked this inn for tonight!"
He slammed a wad of silver dollars on the counter and asked, "Any problems?"
The shopkeeper had initially resigned himself to his bad luck, but upon seeing the silver dollars, he immediately put on a smiling face and said, "No problem, absolutely no problem!"
