Chapter 160: The Spirit of the Police s.h.i.+eld
In the quietness, only one person is stumbling while getting up from the ground using a gun for support .
Su Mian watches him, staring at the wound in his chest . She lowers her head suddenly and starts searching the couch, coffee table, and desks frantically . Although the chances are slim, she still wants to try and find the key, find a way out, and go to him immediately .
But what Han Chen can’t see and Su Mian doesn’t notice is that A, who’s lying on the ground, is slowly closing his eyes . It’s as if he’s talking in his sleep, he murmurs a bunch of nonsense .
“S……S……
Big Sister, Big Sister……I didn’t kill Han Chen……Don’t be sad . ”
He closes his eyes and stops breathing .
Big Sister, I didn’t kill him after all . When I lifted my hand, my thoughts deviated and shot away from his heart .
I think this isn’t considered a betrayal . This really isn’t .
It’s because S said that he wants to give you the life that you want . Therefore, Han Chen cannot die .
It’s because I know deep inside long ago that we’re the ones in the wrong in this life, like a sad concerto . It’s just that I cannot turn back and I don’t want to turn back .
Perhaps our lives started on the wrong foot .
And we let it end wrongly .
……
Su Mian can’t open the door .
R was determined to head toward danger . And since he was looking after her for Xu Si Bai, how could he let her have the chance to escape? She leans her back against the door . Using her good arm, she pounds on the door .
“Han Chen! Han Chen!” she shouts . She doesn’t know how far away Han Chen is . She just hopes that he can hurry to this secret chamber before the crash happens .
Han Chen stands up slowly . He’s like a statue standing high among the dead bodies around him .
At this very moment, the underground begins to shake .
Su Mian jerks her head up and looks around the room shaking like there’s an earthquake . And at the dirt hill area at some unknown distance from her, Han Chen also looks up and watches the shaking ceiling and its falling debris .
It’s not an ordinary shake . The shaking is coming from all directions, and it’s becoming stronger . Su Mian uses all her might to shout, “Han Chen! I’m over here!”
_____
At the Han River tunnel .
The subway is already entering at full speed .
“Are you ready?” Chatterbox asks .
Cold Face nods .
“We’ll be dying soon, so can’t you say a few more words?” Chatterbox laughs suddenly .
Cold Face remains quiet for a brief moment before smiling .
“It’s a bit unfortunate,” he says softly .
Chatterbox lights up a cigarette as the train shakes vigorously . He inhales from it and says, “You’ll miss your new girlfriend?”
“Mm . And the others . ”
“Let her and the others remember you forever then!” Chatterbox sighs .
“It’s better to forget,” Cold Face says softly . He picks up the communication device, “Captain Qin, we’re ready . We’ll steer the train to hit the wall of the tunnel in an effort to avoid cras.h.i.+ng into the Peninsula Hotel . Over . ”
He shuts off the communication device . On the other side, Captain Qin is almost in tears .
The subway’s original track was to hit the underground station at Peninsula Hotel, which meant that it would crash into its foundation . If they jump off of the train earlier, they would be able to escape .
But if they manually steer the train to change its course while the technicians break the train tracks before it gets there, there’s a possibility for the train to stop before the crash as well as detonating the bombs earlier . This way, the Peninsula Hotel will not collapse and the thousands of civilians who haven’t made it out yet will be able to survive .
“Cold Face, Chatterbox……” Captain Qin salutes quietly standing among the ma.s.sive crowd of people who are evacuating toward the Han River .
_____
Underground .
The instant that Han Chen stands up, another person appears not far away .
R .
He’s covered in blood and looks pale . Su Mian’s attack has caused him to become weak like a piece of paper . Blood is flowing out of his chest, staining the ground and his body . He stares at Han Chen and the dead bodies lying on the ground but can’t find Xu Si Bai . In a split second, he understands everything and immediately becomes gloomy .
Han Chen covers his chest with his hand while raising a gun with his other to point it directly at R . But R reacts impulsively; he smiles coldly at Han Chen, bends down and picks up the remote, turns around and runs . It’s darkness behind him and it’s hard to make out where he’s heading . At the same time, the shaking has gotten worse and more debris is falling from above .
At this instant, Su Mian sees Han Chen turn his head suddenly and looks directly at her .
Just like what Xu Si Bai did, he turns to glance at her . His handsome face and those dark and bottomless eyes .
His gaze makes her feel devastated . In the next second, he holds onto his chest and runs after R .
“Han Chen!”
Everything in the image collapses and the monitor goes dark . Su Mian hears the deafening sound of things collapsing and the room loses all its light sources suddenly, falling into the darkness like late at night .
She stands in the middle of the darkness, crying without a sound as she feels unimaginable pain .
_____
It’s close .
It’s getting closer .
It’s smoke everywhere and they can hear the squeaking sound of machinery .
Chatterbox and Cold Face are standing in the control cabin as they watch the train hit the wall . They watch the train tear apart from the ma.s.sive impact caused by the hit .
They can barely stand . The impact causes them to be flung around; they hit the train’s ceiling, the window, and there’s blood on their foreheads and their vision goes blurry .
But even at a time like this, Chatterbox is still a chatterbox .
“Hey, do you remember……what Xiao Zhuan said before?”
Cold Face is fighting with all his might to steer the train to make it hit the wall deeper and faster . His voice is almost drowned by the roaring sound of the train, “I remember . ”
Chatterbox’s voice carries a sense of cheerfulness, “Oh yeah……how could you not remember . That fella was so proud of himself and even wrote it down and stuck it on each of our computer monitors . ”
Two voices say together with a bit of stutter even though it’s hard to make out .
“We are the Black s.h.i.+eld .
What we face against are the most merciless cases;
What we chase after are the cruelest criminals .
We are placed at the border of the darkest area as the st.u.r.diest and strongest s.h.i.+eld .
Our determination can never be destroyed .
We will never let down the people who we are trying to protect .
Please let us die .
Our spirits will live on after death . ”
