Chapter 1427: Take Me Instead
Sergeant Ge was absolutely sure of that.
“How about that?”
Jiang Yao stood up and approached Sergeant Ge in a few steps. Then, she turned around, threw the gun in her hand at Lu Xingzhi and said, “Take me instead of Zhou Junmin. As a hostage, I can at least walk and run. I won’t become a burden to you. Furthermore, I’m Lu Xingzhi’s wife. Don’t you think that using me to threaten him is more valuable than using the half-dead Zhou Junmin?”
Jiang Yao shook the clothes on her body to indicate that she did not have any weapons on her. When she realized that Sergeant Ge was considering her offer, Jiang Yao seized the opportunity and said, “A woman like me can’t pose any threat to you. By the way, I see that you’re injured. I can also help you bandage it. I’m a doctor. You should know how good my medical skills are.”
Jiang Yao had used the medical system to scan Zhou Junmin. After confirming that Zhou Junmin was unconscious, but his life was not in danger yet, she was slightly relieved.
However, just because his life was not in danger did not mean that he would be okay. If they continued to drag that on, Zhou Junmin’s injuries would only get worse. Even if he did not die, his injuries might cripple him.
“Don’t play any tricks!”
Sergeant Ge was tempted. Dragging a half-dead Zhou Junmin would not benefit him at all. He wanted to live. Therefore, he had to escape. Even if the harbor was bombed, he had to escape somehow.
“Walk over here. When you come over, I will release Zhou Junmin!” Sergeant Ge insisted. As for the injuries on his body, Sergeant Ge did not care about them at all as a former soldier.
“Jiang Yao!”
Lu Xingzhi was so angry that his temples were throbbing. That woman had once again put herself in danger.
Zhou Junmin’s life was important. Did she think that her own life was not important as well?
She actually traded herself for Zhou Junmin!
Jiang Yao heard his voice and turned to look at Lu Xingzhi, who was looking at her with an angry expression. They smiled sweetly at each other. Then, she turned back and continued to walk in the direction of Sergeant Ge.
Before she reached him, the man made a request. “Give me a helicopter. There can only be one pilot on the plane. No one else is allowed to be there!”
“How dare you?” Lu Xingzhi gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but to agree. “Give it to him! I want to see where he can go!”
The helicopter could not land anywhere on the mountain, and Sergeant Ge would not want to climb down the rope as he would have to let go of his hostage.
When Jiang Yao approached him, the sergeant turned the gun toward Jiang Yao. Then, he let go of Zhou Junmin and let his former comrade’s body fall to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
“Get in front of me.”
Sergeant Ge raised his chin and gestured to the front. “Walk about 300 meters ahead and turn left. There’s a small open s.p.a.ce. Let the helicopter land there! ”
It was clear that Sergeant Ge had remembered the environment in that area. Otherwise, he would not have been able to leave his opponents behind in such a short time.
Jiang Yao shrugged and looked indifferent. She took the lead in turning around and facing Lu Xingzhi and the others. She stood in front of Sergeant Ge and said, “Zhou Junmin’s injuries are severe. One of his ribs is broken, both of his arms are dislocated, and his wrist is fractured. You must be careful when you carry him. Don’t make any drastic movements.”
