Chapter 868: Taken Hostage

s time was completed very smoothly. The main reason was that modern society wasn't as dangerous, so after the mission ended, she directly chose to enter the next plane and continue her tasks."I'm sen...Although Han Jing knew this and willingly gave up control of her body, she was still the original owner. Lian Yi at most was a lodger. The instincts of her body could still sense the intentions of the original self. The existence of this child was her greatest hatred.

Before the ripples arrived, she couldn't run or resist. All she could think of was starving herself to death and ending it all. The arrival of the ripples stabilized her spirit, but her body still instinctively rejected the child. So after several accumulations, things have become like this now.

She took three deep breaths, allowing the ripples to calm the discomfort in her stomach. Then, she retrieved a strip of cloth and bound the unconscious person, preventing them from causing further harm.

After tying the man up, Lian'er finally sat down by the kang, taking slow breaths to calm herself and patiently waiting for dawn. However, tonight was destined to be a restless night. Just as Lian'er felt her stomach ease, someone kicked open the courtyard gate, and two figures crept into the yard.

Now, ripples wanted to close the door but it was too late. One of them rushed into the house first and saw ripples sitting there. He directly dragged her out, making ripples a hostage. Ripples was so angry she wanted to curse them out. Were these people crazy Why did they keep sneaking into Qiao Lao Er's house

"Those outside, we have someone here under duress, she's pregnant. You'd best not make any rash moves."

Another man, menacingly fierce, also retreated into the house. He cooperated with his companion who was controlling the ripples, pulling the hostage to the window and letting those outside see Ripples' face, proving they did indeed have a hostage. He himself hid under the windowsill.

"People inside, you are surrounded. We urge you to not harm the hostages, lay down your weapons and surrender, accepting legal punishment!"

A strong male voice came from outside.

The ripples were visible, and the outside of Old Joe's second son's courtyard was already ablaze. It was clear that Qiaojia Gou had been taken control of, and outside, fully armed militia patrolled.

"Bah! Sounds nice, surrender is a dead end!"

Another man yelled back.

"Fall back! Fall back! If you dare to enter the courtyard, I'll kill this woman. Then it'll be two dead bodies, and I'll see how you explain yourselves!"

The man holding Ripple threatened, gun pressed almost to her temple.

"Calm down! Calm down! Please don't hurt the hostages. What are your demands"

People outside could see the two criminals were getting agitated, and fearing Li Ren might get hurt, immediately shouted out loudly.

"Get us a car, full of gas, so we can get out of here. Otherwise, we're taking this woman with us."

Another man hiding behind the ripples immediately threatened, then pinched Ripples hard.

"Ah!"

The ripples screamed directly.

She originally didn't want to speak up, but she was worried that this heartless bastard would hurt the original body. The original body already had signs of miscarriage, and if something else happened, it would definitely be a disaster.

With the ripples' shouts, it seemed that those outside also knew they couldn't push too hard and could only resort to delaying tactics:

"Don't get excited, we're going to find a gas station right now. Please give us half an hour."

"Alright! If we don't see the car in half an hour, I'm going to stomp on one of this woman's fingers. For every half hour you delay, I'll stomp on another finger!"

The man dropped a harsh threat, then pulled the curtains shut, preventing anyone outside from seeing what was happening inside.

This feeling of nausea is getting worse. My stomach already faintly aches, though it's still within bearable limits, but it's not a good sign.

"Two big brothers, please let me sit down! My stomach hurts, I feel like I'm going to give birth."

The rippling voice trembled, saying...

"Darn it! Awful!"

A man cursed, and then peered around in the darkness. They dared not turn on the lights; if they did, they would become sitting ducks.

The man saw a figure on the ground. He walked over and kicked the person down, then, using the faint light filtering through the curtains, he could make out the face of the person on the ground. Especially with the blood all over their face, he still managed to recognize them:

"Isn't this Qiao Meng"

"What's wrong with him"

The man who held the ripples captive asked.

"Knocked unconscious, blood all over his face."

The man finished speaking and turned his head to glare at Ripples, snarling:

"Did you do it"

The ripples had already sat down. Upon hearing the man's question, she immediately clutched her stomach and said in a trembling voice:

"He came to take his younger sister away, but he was tackled by the police in the yard. Then they tied him up and put him in the house for me to watch, wouldn't let me out, saying it was chaotic outside and I had to wait inside."

Ripple doesn't want to be caught in the crossfire.

Two men looked at each other, and one of them directly pulled up Ripples:

"Go!"

The ripples were dragged up again, she really wanted to kill these two people directly, but in order for Han Jing's persona not to collapse, she could only temporarily endure and let herself be dragged up according to the other party's strength.

The two seemed very familiar with the layout of Qiao Laer's house, going straight to the old lady's bedroom. Lian Yi was a bit confused, what did this mean

The man leading the charge burst in and immediately jumped onto the kang. He moved the cabinet from the corner, pulled up the bedding, and then lifted a board. Beneath it was a dark opening, just big enough for one person to pass through.

Now Lian Yi understood why everyone had fled to Old Joe's house. There was an escape route here. She was certain that Joe's Gulch had more than one secret passage. These two people must have escaped here while being chased, and the car was just a temporary measure.

"Fourth Brother, you go down first. I'll handle this woman here and cover your retreat."

What am I supposed to do with this dead weight Just kill it!

"No, she's our lucky charm. We have to take her with us until we escape."

The younger one is still very intelligent.

But what if she dies halfway

"Just let the outside world know that we have this person, they're a police officer. Naturally, they will take care of this woman's life, and that's how we'll have a chance to escape."

Ripple listened to the two people's conversation, not even giving them a glance. She felt like they had treated her as if she were dead, a mere tool for their escape. If that was the case, don't blame her ancestor Ripple for being ruthless.

Here, the two reached an agreement. The man called "Fourth Brother" jumped down first, and then instructed Lianyi to follow.

Liàn yī deliberately paled her face and said:

"Sir, please spare me! My stomach hurts more and more now."

"Shut up, jump down, or I'll make you!"

The man spoke forcefully.

Ripples' eyes darkened, and she immediately jumped down. Then, accompanied by her scream, there was no movement for a long time.

"Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, what's wrong"

There was no response below, and the man got impatient. He immediately jumped down.ly.If necessary, go to work first! You can come over directly after work. If you're afraid that our Song family will bully you, you can also bring your parents with you.Liàn Yī only wouldn't fall for...
