Urban Supreme Divine Doctor

Chapter 19: Chapter 019: Rescue



Liang Xuhui thought for a moment, then looked at Ye Wutian, and asked in a gentle tone, "Young man, my name is Liang Xuhui. What's yours?"

Liang Xuhui's simple way of introducing himself indeed won a bit of favor from Ye Wutian. He hadn't flaunted his position as bureau chief, which suggested he was a man of modest aspirations.

"My name is Ye Wutian." Ye Wutian also introduced himself simply.

Liang Xuhui humbly asked, "Mr. Ye, what insights do you have regarding the current situation?"

"There's only one way to rescue the hostages, and that's to kill all three criminals at the same time." Ye Wutian answered calmly.

"But as you said just now, one of the criminals is in a sniper's blind spot, making it impossible to kill all three at the same time." Liang Xuhui expressed his doubt.

Ye Wutian's lips curved slightly as he said, "As long as you can prepare a bow with enough tension within twenty minutes, it might be possible."

"Are you suggesting that we use a bow and arrow to kill the criminal at the sniper's blind spot?" Liang Xuhui's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Ye Wutian.

"Do you have a better idea?" Ye Wutian countered.

"But how could a bow and arrow possibly penetrate that wall..." Liang Xuhui's words suddenly stuck, and he stared at Ye Wutian in shock for a long while, then he coldly ordered, "Find a bow with strong tension within twenty minutes."

Since Ye Wutian and Liang Xuhui had been speaking in low voices, only Zhao Lihong and Tang Weiwen who were nearby had heard them. Now, the sudden mention of finding a bow baffled the other police officers.

"Chief, bows are categorized as controlled equipment, it might be difficult to find." Huang Wei reminded.

Liang Xuhui's brow furrowed slightly, but just then, a special police captain named Jiang Ke quickly approached Liang Xuhui and whispered, "Chief, I know of an underground marketplace nearby that sells imported compound bows."

"Then hurry and buy the strongest bow you can find." Liang Xuhui hurriedly instructed.

"It's just that quality bows are quite expensive, and I don't have that much money on me." Jiang Ke said, troubled.

Upon hearing this, Tang Weiwen quickly took out a bank card, handed it to Jiang Ke, and told him the PIN.

Jiang Ke's hands trembled as he took the bank card. He didn't even dare to think about how much money was on it.

Seeing him staring blankly at the bank card, Liang Xuhui quickly shouted, "What are you waiting for? Hurry and go buy it."

"Yes! Yes!" Jiang Ke agreed and quickly squeezed through the crowd.

After Jiang Ke had left, Tang Weiwen asked worriedly, "Xuhui, with your level of Inner Strength, you probably still can't shoot arrows through walls, right?"

Like Liang Xuhui, Tang Weiwen was a Lian Jiazi and the two had become friends through martial arts. Initially, their levels of Inner Strength had been similar, but since Tang Weiwen had taken over his father's company, his busy schedule had significantly reduced his training time, resulting in a lower level of Inner Strength compared to Liang Xuhui. This is also why he hadn't been able to perceive the Inner Strength on Ye Wutian.

Hearing Liang Xuhui mention shooting arrows through walls, he naturally assumed it would be Liang Xuhui taking the shot, prompting his question.

"My Inner Strength certainly hasn't reached that level, but looking at Mr. Ye's confident demeanor, it seems he is sure he can do it," Liang Xuhui said, looking expectantly at Ye Wutian.

"If I suggest doing so, it's naturally because I am confident," to reassure Liang Xuhui and Tang Weiwen, Ye Wutian didn't conceal it.

"It seems Mr. Ye truly is a cultivator," excitement shone in Liang Xuhui's eyes.

"Somewhat," Ye Wutian answered ambiguously.

Seeing that Ye Wutian seemed intent on avoiding the topic, Liang Xuhui tactfully refrained from asking further and instead changed the subject, "Mr. Ye, what preparations need to be made next?" Unbeknownst to Liang Xuhui, he had already handed over the decision-making power to Ye Wutian.

"The next step is crucial. For the sniper to lock onto the target through the ventilation window, he must find a sniping position between the 20th and 25th floors of the bank building opposite, meaning the distance between him and the target will be nearly 600 meters. We need to find the very best sniper and ensure he can hit a critical spot from that distance, and it must be the head since the criminal is wearing a bomb."

Liang Xuhui thought it over and said, "Our special police team uses the Type 88 sniper rifle. At 600 meters, our best sniper should have no problem."

"That's reassuring. Next, direct all excess police forces to disperse the spectators, especially the journalists. It's best if no one is inside the plaza," Ye Wutian demanded, aiming to keep the situation from becoming publicly known.

"Huang Wei, immediately act on Mr. Ye's orders!" Liang Xuhui commanded without a second thought.

"Yes!" Although Huang Wei was reluctant to follow Ye Wutian's directives, he couldn't neglect an order from his superior, and promptly issued the command to disperse the extra officers, spectators, and journalists.

Meanwhile, the best sniper was dispatched to the bank building to find a suitable sniping position.

As time ticked by, Liang Xuhui's uniform was soaked with sweat, and both Tang Weiwen and Zhao Lihong had turned pale with anxiety.

It took Huang Wei a lot of effort to move the spectators and journalists out of the plaza, which grew significantly quieter.
