Chapter 293 - Quick Kiss
"Tell him to walk in with the food!!" Guanya ordered.
He couldn"t risk receiving the food on his own- he didn"t have an arm to spare.
"I won"t go, I won"t go! Get someone else……" The employee was clearly a young bud that had just entered society- he was not equipped to deal with a scene like this. He landed on his a.s.s after Guanya"s bark, almost letting the food fall onto the floor had it not been for the officer who"d caught him.
Guanya was a bit speechless- why the h.e.l.l was this guy so much of a coward? He didn"t even do anything..?
"Hurry up, tell him to hurry up! I"m hungry!" Guanya barked.
"No… I"m not going… I won"t go, I rather die……." The employee"s eyes were filled with fear as he shook his head… A small puddle of wetness started forming underneath him……
The officer beside him couldn"t quite stand the sight anymore- p.i.s.sing himself just like that? He frowned as he turned to Guanya. "Maybe I can get you the food? Don"t worry, I won"t be armed- I"ll take out my gun right in front of you!"
"No. You? Do I know you? Who knows if you"d attack me!!" Guanyu was no idiot- letting the police get close with him would just force him into a corner.
Lingshan was feeling helpless. "You saw it yourself, he can"t do that! We can"t just force him, can we? Maybe I can do it?"
"You? Of course not!!" Guanya followed that up with a suggestion. "Alright, have someone from the crowd deliver it to me."
Those words prompted the onlookers to start backing off right away- no one wanted a job like that.
They were plenty satisfied with just watching, but getting involved? No one would want to do something as dangerous as that, the risk were just too high.
Lingshan wasn"t very happy with the crowd"s reaction. These people were h.e.l.lbent on not backing off when they were told to, but here they were, running like rabbits when the danger involved them.
She couldn"t really do anything about that, though- it was just an internal complaint. Lingshan turned to see Lin Yi not far away, and a plan came to mind.
She kinda hated Lin Yi, but she had to admit that the guy had good reflexes. Even if he were a bit weaker than her, the guy should be good enough to deal with a character like Guanya. He was a good candidate for the job.
Guanya, on the other hand, had the same thought- Lin Yi was the only one still standing there with a dumb look on his face when everyone else had dispersed. Guanya had a.s.sumed that youths were more daring, and didn"t think much about it. "That student over there, get me the food! Yes, you! You! Stop looking around!"
"Me?" Lin Yi grinned mentally, but made sure to put on a surprised face as he pointed to himself.
"Yes! Hurry up, stop dilly dallying!" Guanya barked.
"You… wouldn"t hurt me, would you?" Lin Yi asked weakly after some hesitation.
"I won"t! Hurry up!" Guanya said impatiently.
"O-Okay then… You promised……" Lin Yi nodded softly.
Lingshan was quite overjoyed- she quickly made eye contact with Lin Yi to make sure he knew what was going on, but the guy looked as if he didn"t see her.
Tang Yin, on the other hand, wasn"t expecting Lin Yi to get chosen by the murderer- she was starting to panic! She didn"t want Lin Yi to put himself in danger like that, there were so many cops around, he shouldn"t have to get involved at all!
She grabbed Lin Yi"s hand without thinking, her voice filled with worry as she spoke. "Lin Yi, you……"
"Ah, it"s fine. I"m good, remember?" Lin Yi whispered.
Tang Yin paused after hearing that- it was true, she was panicking for no reason. The guy was able to beat down even a ruthless thug like Heibao without injuring himself when he saved her from that abandoned building- there really was nothing for her to worry about. Heibao wasn"t even a threat to Lin Yi with a gun back on the school field, either, so there was no reason for a knife to pose any danger……
"But… this… This is you saving a damsel in distress, right…. What if she… decides to repay you with her body………" Another concern arose- this turn of events was the legendary damsel in distress scenario! Tang Yin herself had grown to like Lin Yi more because he"d saved her, what if Guan Xin got added into the drama?! Would she have to fight her? Tang Yin started getting shy at the possibility.
"I can"t just not save her, right?" Lin Yi wasn"t expecting Tang Yin to go there. He pinched her soft and slightly moist palm. "I"ll leave her, then?"
"... You"d better save her…… Guan Xin"s actually really nice, and she"s still worried about the patient with her when she"s a hostage……" Tang Yin still admired the girl- she respected her kindness.
"Will you two stop that? Continue after I get my food!" Guanya wasn"t too happy at Lin Yi romancing with a female student right in front of him. "Jesus!"
"Let"s talk after I get it over with, haha- he"s getting p.i.s.sed." Lin Yi smiled.
"Kay……" Tang Yin nodded shyly. "Be careful….."
"I"ll be careful if you give me a quick kiss……" Lin Yi grinned evilly.
"I……" Tang Yin couldn"t believe it- what was the b.a.s.t.a.r.d even thinking of in a situation like this? She spoke after some hesitation. "Then…. After you get back safe……"
"Ah.... Okay, wait for me." Lin Yi smiled as he let go of Tang Yin"s hand- he then strolled to the officer with the food and took it before turning to walk to Guanya.
Impatient, Guanya pulled Guan Xin back to give Lin Yi some s.p.a.ce. "Come in and close the door!"
"Okay……" Lin Yi walked in looking scared and closed the door- ten seconds later he walked out and quickly ran up to Tang Yin. "I"m back, can I get a kiss now?"
Lin Yi"s voice wasn"t loud, but Lingshan heard what he said loud and clear! She couldn"t believe this!! She"d hoped that Lin Yi would be able to disarm Guanya or even put him down if possible, but this Lin Yi..! Did he really come back right after delivering the food/?
Did he come out so fast just for Tang Yin"s kiss?! Lingshan was speechless as she pointed at Lin Yi. "What"s wrong with you??"
Chapter 294 - Legendary Love Triangle
"What"re you talking about?" Lin Yi eyed Lingshan, a bit p.i.s.sed off- what was her problem, did she love to ruin romantic scenes? "Can it wait? I"m in the middle of something important, okay?"
Something important? So this was the important thing, not the murderer in the other room? Lingshan couldn"t believe this!! Yet Lin Yi wasn"t part of the police force, and she really didn"t have any control over what he wanted to ddo.
But she couldn"t help herself. "Lin Yi, can you at least be able to take things seriously? Did you seriously just get him his food? Couldn"t you have looked for a chance to take Huang Guanya down?"
"I did! Jeez, what"s wrong with you? Will you leave me alone??" Lin Yi was getting p.i.s.sed- what the h.e.l.l was her problem? Guan Xin was still in there, so was she really so brainless that she"d think that Lin Yi would ignore the girl like that?
"You did?" Lingshan didn"t quite understand what Lin Yi meant.
Right at that moment, the door opened and out rushed Guan Xin- she leapt at Lin Yi upon seeing him. "Haah…… Haah……"
She was no longer the strong and determined nurse she was when taken hostage- she was now just a frail girl as she hugged Lin Yi tightly… There were even tears coming out of her eyes.
She had prioritized the patient"s safety over her own out of her sense of duty as a nurse, coupled with her natural tendency for selflessness… The current her was just a normal female who needed shelter and protection after the shock, a shoulder to rest on, a person who could console her……
"Ah……" Lin Yi looked at Tang Yin helplessly, who just curled her lips and turned the other way, silent.
What else could she say at this point, after all? She was a little jealous, but Guan Xin had just gotten saved from a life-threatening situation- it was true she needed comfort and consolation. Tang Yin wasn"t a selfish person, and decided that she"d just pretend she couldn"t see what was happening.
Yet she didn"t quite understand how Lin Yi had saved Guan Xin that fast- he"d only been in there for a little more than ten seconds, and a.s.sumed that he"d rushed out after delivering the food for her kiss…… It didn"t seem to be the case now that Guan Xin was here!
As unbelievable as it was, Guan Xin"s safety meant only one thing- Lin Yi had taken care of the criminal……
She didn"t believe it, and neither did Lingshan or any of the officers present… It was simply too much of a stretch.
Lin Yi"s "I did!" prompted some mockery from Lingshan when Guan Xin came out all of a sudden- she was really confused now. What was going on?
She didn"t bother asking Lin Yi anymore- she rushed into the hospital room and found herself shocked at what she was seeing…
Guanya was lying on the ground, his dagger in a corner… His eyes were bulging and his face was equipped with an expression of shock and rage- he found it ridiculous to have gone down like this! He didn"t deserve to die like this!
His cause of death made Lingshan speechless.
The murderer had been killed instantly, and the weapon that had ended his life… was a pair of chopsticks. Chopsticks that Lin Yi had brought in with the food.
The pair of chopsticks had been stabbed into Guanya"s heart- from the length of chopsticks still remaining outside Guanya"s body, Lingshan ascertained that the chopsticks had went straight through the heart, slightly protruding out of the back……
Lin Yi did this? How..? Lingshan was confused.
A little more than ten seconds, excluding the time he used to open the door and walk out… He"d have to have put down the food, get into a fight, disarm Guanya, push away Guan Xin, and then stab Guanya with the chopsticks……
In a few seconds. Lin Yi did all this in a few seconds?! Lingshan didn"t like Lin Yi too much, but she had to be impressed with what he"d accomplished here today! Guanya didn"t even have the chance to cry out before his instant death!
Lingshan asked herself this: would she have been able to achieve the same result should she have been the food delivery person, also taking into consideration that she"d have to manage to keep the hostage safe from harm? Lingshan wanted to answer "yes" to that, but hesitated…
She shook her head, and decided that she"d leave the corpse for later- she ran to Bojia"s bed, seeing that the sheets had already been soaked red… Guanya had stabbed the man in the belly a couple times, and the blood was still flowing…
"Get the doctor!!" Lingshan cried out to w.a.n.gli, who just entered the room after her.
"Understood!" w.a.n.gli was surprised as well, but something else with a higher shock value was stuck in his mind- wasn"t Lin Yi the captain"s boyfriend..? How come he was asking for a kiss from a pretty student?
Could this perhaps be the legendary love triangle? Yes, that should be the case… It also explained why the captain was so p.i.s.sed, eyeing Lin Yi and everything.
His legs never stopped moving as the thoughts went through his mind- he called for a doctor upon exiting the room.
The doctor and nurse had already been notified and prepared already- they burst in the room right after things had been settled.
Lingshan didn"t even bother spending any resources on saving Guanya"s life- the guy was dead as could be. His life didn"t matter to Linghsan anyway, as well.
The guy was a full blown pervert, a psycho murderer who never knew an end to his crimes. The only thing he was capable of was describing his heinous crimes, there"d be no useful information coming from him regardless! The case wouldn"t be at a dead end as long as Bojia was fine.
The doctor and nurse moved Bojia to the emergency room, and the police started cleaning up the scene.
Tang Yin cleared her throat as Guan Xin and Lin Yi"s hug continued- it still had to end, right? They were doing it in front of her, too! What was this? Was Lin Yi starting to have second thoughts about committing to her??
Guan Xin opened her eyes after hearing Guan Xin clear her throat, realizing that she"d been hugging Lin Yi tightly the whole time. She let go, a little embarra.s.sed.
Although, it was a natural reaction for her to have- Lin Yi did just save her, after all, and she subconsciously saw him as the shelter and protection she needed… She didn"t really think about it.
Yet she did hug Tang Yin"s boyfriend right in front of her…
"Sorry, Tang Yin, I was in panic… Sorry I borrowed your boyfriend for a little……" Guan Xin smiled apologetically at Tang Yin- she didn"t mean to go against her and steal Lin Yi or anything… Lin Yi was also still a student, too- another reason for her to hold down her feelings….
