Chapter 347 My Son’s Life Is Priceless
Xia Xiaoluo heard the noise, the killers heard it as well.
“Thomas, hurry up, kill the mother and the son. We have to leave!” One of the killers who was fighting with the man in camouflage shouted.
“OK! Now it’s over. Everything is over.” The killer raised the sharp knife to kill Xia Xiaoluo.
“Mommy!” Taotao cried. Xia Xiaoluo protected Taotao under her own body. Even if she died, she had to block the hurt of knife for Taotao and win the time to wait for the police and Ling Tianyi.
“No! Don’t hurt our guests.” The security guard who fell to the ground just now stood up again. Following his own duty, he needed to protect the safety of every guest who was in the supermarket. Unfortunately, he was not strong enough, so he was kicked away by the killer again.
Just because the security guard won that half a minute, six policemen finally arrived at the supermarket in time. Calling the police worked.
“Don’t move!” The policemen roared.
“Let’s go!” The killers were tacit to escape together. They didn’t want to fight against the policemen with guns, because they might be shot dead at any time.
But they couldn’t escape like this. They had to take someone as a hostage. Among the people around, only Taotao was suitable because he was not able to resist.
One killer attacked Xia Xiaoluo severely, and the other killer robbed Taotao away. When the killers were surrounded by the policemen, they knew that more policemen would come later and they needed a hostage. If they could take Taotao away, it was a half success for achieving their employer’s objectives.
“No, Mommy! Save me! Mommy!”
“Mommy! Mommy… Save me! Mommy…”
Taotao cried and shouted, and Xia Xiaoluo chased Taotao crazily. Regardless of the fact that she was almost killed by a killer just now, regardless of her bleeding forehead , Xia Xiaoluo just wanted to save her son Taotao.
The killer thought that Taotao was too noisy, so he knocked Taotao out directly. Xia Xiaoluo couldn’t hear the cry of Taotao, so she was more anxious.
The killers retreated to the back of a shelf, trying to find a back door to leave. But the policemen kept chasing them, and Xia Xiaoluo caught up with them as well.
“Let us go, and then we will save this child’s life!” One of the killers shouted.
“Give us a car! Hurry up! Or I’ll throttle him!” The killer who held Taotao roared with red eyes.
“No, don’t hurt my son! No!” Xia Xiaoluo was anxious, so she begged the policemen at once, “Please satisfy their requests and give them a car! Please, I can’t lose my child!”
At this time, there were more and more people, including the people who came to support the policemen and the people arranged by Ling Tianyi. The road was blocked, and the killers had no way to leave. But the killers took Taotao as a hostage, so no one dared to act rashly. If the child was hurt, no one dared to bear the consequences.
However, both the policemen and the people arranged by Ling Tianyi disagreed with Xia Xiaoluo’s suggestion of arranging a car for the killers, because they thought that the killers would take Taotao with them, and then Taotao would be more dangerous, getting in a situation even worse.
Xia Xiaoluo was about to collapse. Susan stumbled over not far away. One of her arms was broken by the killers, and there were many bruises on her body. But she was still worried about Xia Xiaoluo and Taotao. She endured the pain, coming reluctantly. She was almost walking and crawling to come over.
“Don’t be afraid, Miss Xiaoluo. All of us will help you. Taotao will surely be saved!” Susan held Xia Xiaoluo and cheered her up.
“Susan, Susan…” Xia Xiaoluo cried and said. When she saw Susan who was hurt badly, she felt so sorry for her.
After hearing the news, the medical staff came to treat Susan directly, but Susan looked at Xia Xiaoluo’s forehead, “Stop bleeding for her first!”
“No, don’t do it for me. Taotao is still in the hands of the bad guys. How can I feel at ease and receive the treatment?” Xia Xiaoluo pushed the medical staff away. She has refused the treatment for many times before Susan came.
“You must receive the treatment, you must believe in the policemen and us, you have to believe that God will bless Taotao. If you drain your blood and die, but Taotao is saved, what should we do if Taotao cries and asks for mommy? How can we explain to him? Don’t behave so stupidly. Everyone is trying to save Taotao. But you hurt yourself and divert everyone’s attention. Do you really love Taotao? Xia Xiaoluo, Ouyang Ziluo, wake up!” Susan was almost roaring. She wanted to wake up Xia Xiaoluo by roaring at her.
Xia Xiaoluo seemed to be woken up by Susan’s scolding. She didn’t resist the treatment anymore. The doctor dealt with Xia Xiaoluo’s wound quickly. Xia Xiaoluo sat on the ground, seeing that her favorite son was in the hands of the bad guys, but she had no way to save him.
They were at a stalemate just like this, for one hour, two hours, three hours…
It was almost at dawn, but the situation didn’t go well. Xia Xiaoluo was near the point of breakdown. Although Susan was seriously injured, it was not fatal. She was still with Xia Xiaouo, and she was worried about Taotao as well.
“Xiaoluo, darling, Xiaoluo, darling…”
The familiar voice came into Xia Xiaoluo’s ears. Xia Xiaoluo looked back and saw the familiar shadow approaching her.
It was him, it was really him, Ling Tianyi finally came here.
“Xiaoluo, you are hurt. Is it painful?”
“I am late. I didn’t protect you well!”
Ling Tianyi sat next to Xia Xiaoluo, holding her in his arms to give her warmth and courage.
Ling Tianyi has dreamed of meeting Xia Xiaoluo again for countless times. It could be in a romantic restaurant, a beautiful park, even in the streets or on a plane…
But he did not expect that their meeting was like this.
Xia Xiaoluo’s forehead was bandaged with gauze, Ling Tianyi could see the blood oozing out. Xia Xiaoluo’s face was dirty and pale, and she almost collapse.
“Save Taotao!” Xia Xiaoluo pointed at the killers who were still struggling in the distance. “Taotao is in their hands!”
“Taotao, Taotao!” Ling Tianyi looked in the direction of Xia Xiaoluo’s fingers. “Taotao, my son! My son!”
“Yes, Taotao, your son, save him. You must save him!” Xia Xiaoluo’s eyes were a little glassy, looking straight at the direction of Taotao.
Ling Tianyi suddenly drew out his consciousness from the excitement of meeting Xia Xiaoluo. He couldn’t bear that his son was in danger.
Ling Tianyi asked the people he arranged to come here immediately. “The hostage is my son. We must save him safely. I will pay as much as you want. My son’s life is priceless!”
Ling Tianyi’s power in Y Country was limited, so he couldn’t mobilize more people and forces, but he had the determination to risk his life to save Taotao back.
The police thought that it was time to break the deadlock as well. The negotiation of the psychological experts seemed to have no effect on these killers at all.
“The snipers are ready!” One of the policemen reported to his leader.
“No, no snipers! My son is in their hands. It may hurt my son! If anyone dares to shoot in the direction of my son, I’ll shoot him on the head.” Ling Tianyi immediately refused, and it was a threat.
Xia Xiaoluo also heard that. She staggered to her feet, holding the policeman’s arms. “Don’t shoot, don’t shoot! Please, I beg you, don’t shoot!”
The policeman shrugged his shoulders helplessly, “I can understand your feelings as the family members of the hostage, but the it is in a deadlock now. If we don’t use snipers, we don’t know what will happen later.”
“Don’t use a gun at least, please. Don’t shoot in the direction of my son! They will use my son as a shield!” Xia Xiaoluo continued to beg the police.
“I’ll deal with it!” Ling Tianyi grabbed the microphone from the hands of the psychological expert and looked at the direction of the killers with sharp eyes.
“Hey! Let’s talk about it. I’m the father of that child! Maybe we can find a better solution!”
“Let the child go, and I’ll be your hostage. I have a private plane. I can take you to any place you want. I can give you enough money as well, no matter how much you want.”
“Believe me, I came from D Country by my private plane last night. My plane is at Kasptan private airport, and my car is outside the supermarket.”
“My son’s life is priceless. If you let my son go, I can help you to leave. You don’t have to care about those policemen. My helpers are here, too. He, he, and he, they are all my helpers.” Ling Tianyi pointed at the people he can mobilize.
“Boss, I fought with them just now! They know how strong I am!” The man in camouflage said.
“Hey! You fought with him. Now I will ask him to help you to stop the policemen, making sure that you can leave safely. Believe me, as long as my son is safe, I can meet any reasonable and unreasonable requirements of you. I just want my son to be safe.”
Ling Tianyi’s negotiation method made the policemen very dissatisfied, because he was going to help the bad guys obviously.
Xia Xiaoluo was full of expectation. She stood behind Ling Tianyi, and she suddenly roared, “If you think that it is risky for a man to be your hostage, I can be your hostage. I don’t know Kung Fu. I can replace my son.”
“No way! You are my woman. You can’t be in danger!” Ling Tianyi interrupted Xia Xiaoluo at once. As long as he was here, his wife and son were not allowed to take risks.
“I have the final say in this matter. I will be your hostage and take you to leave Y Country, and I will give you a large amount of money to make sure that you don’t need to worry about the money in the rest of your life. If you have family members, I can make sure that everything will be arranged well for them. This is your only chance, believe me, or you will not escape!”
Ling Tianyi’s words seemed to move the killers. They were talking with each other. They were not idiots, and they didn’t want to die like this.
“Take off your clothes to prove that you don’t have any weapons!” A killer said.
“Okay!” Ling Tianyi took off his coat immediately and turned the pockets of his trousers out, “I don’t have any weapons.”
“Ask them to tie you up!” One of the killers said.
