Chapter 373: The Line Between Life and Death
The object of Xiao Ping's suspicion was a waiter who served alcohol to guests. By the time he began to observe his surroundings, the waiter had already passed around Ye Dexiang five times with a plate, more than anyone else. What made Xiao Ping even more suspicious was that this guy's eyes basically fell on Ye Dexiang, unlike other waiters who would look around and immediately greet guests when they found them in need.
In short, although this person seems to be serving the guests, he has actually been circling around Ye Dexiang. And every time I get close to Ye Dexiang, I get closer than last time. It was precisely this patient gesture that made Ye Dexiang, who was busy receiving guests, gradually relax his vigilance against him. Ye Dexiang deliberately glanced at the waiter at first, but later he completely ignored him.
Xiao Ping immediately reported to Luo Fatzi in a low voice: "If I find a suspicious target, I'll go and deal with him!" ”
"Hey, let's act later, don't spoil the atmosphere of the banquet!" Luo Fatzi shouted in the headphones, but he couldn't stop Xiao Ping in the slightest.
Xiao Ping came down the stairs and walked quickly towards Ye Dexiang. At the same time, he grabbed a fork from the dining table next to him for Western food, in case the situation suddenly deteriorated. Although this is just an ordinary silver fork, it can also become a lethal weapon in Xiao Ping's hands, and it may be able to save Ye Dexiang's life in an emergency.
From Xiao Ping's position to Ye Dexiang's side, there was a distance of about ten meters. If he ran as hard as he could, he would be able to reach it in the blink of an eye. However, the current form is not clear, and Xiao Ping doesn't want to startle the snake, so he still walks slowly to Ye Dexiang's side.
At the same moment, however, the waiter took action. He didn't know when he put down the plate in his hand and walked forward unhurriedly. Then he suddenly changed the direction of his progress and walked towards Ye Dexiang. Only Xiao Ping, who had been paying attention to the waiter, could see it at the scene. His path overlapped with Ye Dexiang's. According to Ye Dexiang's current position, the waiter only needs to take a few more steps to stagger past him.
"Damn it!" Xiao Ping, who was still a few steps away, scolded secretly in his heart. Involuntarily quickened the pace.
At this time, the waiter had already come to a place two steps behind Ye Dexiang. With his free right hand, he pulled out a thin metal cylinder from his pocket, which was half the thickness of his little finger and no more than two inches long, and pressed one end down with all his might, and a sharp thorn immediately popped out of the other.
I don't know what is painted on the thorns, which completely obscures the reflection of the metal, making it difficult to detect its existence. A sneer flashed at the corner of the waiter's mouth, and he calmly walked two steps behind him, and stabbed the thin thorn in his hand towards Ye Dexiang.
The surface of the fine thorn was coated with a layer of anesthetic potion, and Ye Dexiang would not have noticed that he had been stabbed at all. And when everyone found out that the situation was not right. The venom of the black mamba snake inside the hollow spines had already spread in Ye Dexiang's body. It only takes two drops of the venom of the Black Man Snake to kill an adult within an hour. And there are at least six drops of venom in the hollow stinger, and these venoms will be injected into Ye Dexiang's body in an instant, even if people can send him to the hospital in time, Ye Dexiang will not escape the fate of death!
The killer seemed to have felt the sensation of a thin thorn piercing into the human body, and in his eyes, Ye Dexiang was already a dead man.
Xiao Ping, who was a few steps away, had also seen the thorn in the waiter's hand, and had already determined that this guy was the killer he was looking for. Seeing that the killer was about to succeed, Xiao Ping didn't even think about it, and threw the fork in his hand towards the killer. A cold light flashed that was barely noticeable to the naked eye. The fork was nailed deep into the back of the killer's stinger-wielding hand.
The killer, who was about to succeed, only felt a sharp pain on the back of his hand, and then realized that he had something more on his hand. This unexpected situation made the killer slightly stunned, and Xiao Ping had already seized this opportunity to come to his side.
For fear that the killer dog would jump off the wall in a hurry, he would attack Ye Dexiang regardless of everything. Xiao Ping immediately grabbed his wrist firmly. Xiao Ping used a lot of strength to hold this hand, and the waiter involuntarily let go of his hand in pain. Before the stinger could hit the ground, Xiao Ping had already delicately clamped it with two fingers.
Xiao Ping couldn't tell what was painted on the sharp thorns. So just be careful to hold the thicker part of the stinger - this is where the killer took it, and it should be very safe. Xiao Ping casually put the stinger into the pocket of his suit. Then he pulled the upper fork from the back of the killer's hand and pushed him out of the hall.
The killer is also tough. just gritted his teeth and said nothing, which is also in line with Xiao Ping's mind - today is an important day for Ye Dexiang and his wife, and it is naturally the best not to alarm the guests.
From Xiao Ping throwing out the fork to subduing the killer, it only took two or three seconds before and after, and he didn't make too loud sounds from beginning to end. In the noisy hall, no one noticed this small episode at all, and even Ye Dexiang, who was close at hand, didn't know that he had just walked on the edge of life and death.
Under Xiao Ping's overwhelming force, the injured killer was powerless to resist, and was involuntarily pushed out of the hall, watching his target get farther and farther away from him. Although he was once one step away from completing the mission, he never had a chance.
Xiao Ping pushed the killer into a room, and along the way, he only heard Luo Fatzi say loudly in the headphones: "Xiao Ping, don't be impulsive, report immediately if you find the target, and I will coordinate your actions......"
Xiao Ping was really tired of listening, so he took the intercom out of his ear, turned it off, and put it back in his pocket. Although he caught the killer, Xiao Ping still didn't dare to take it lightly, what if the other party sent more than one person? Thinking of this, Xiao Ping hurriedly called Ye Dexiang and asked him to bring two bodyguards to the room where he was.
Ye Dexiang knew that Xiao Ping was not a person who made a fuss, and he hurried to the scene with two bodyguards not long after receiving the call. After seeing the waiter who was still bleeding on the back of his hand, Ye Dexiang couldn't help but be taken aback, and hurriedly asked Xiao Ping anxiously: "What's going on?" ”
Xiao Ping took out the stinger and showed it to Ye Dexiang, then pointed at the killer and said, "I snatched it from him, this thing almost pierced you." ”
Ye Dexiang is not a stupid person, he understood it as soon as he saw the stinger, and the cold sweat immediately soaked his shirt. Two of his bodyguards also became nervous, and one of them asked expectantly, "Mr. Ye, do you want to call the police?" ”
"Don't call the police just yet!" Xiao Ping intercepted: "Ask for a confession." ”
Ye Dexiang immediately accepted Xiao Ping's arrangement and said to the two bodyguards: "You go to the door first and guard it, don't let anyone in!" ”
After the bodyguard closed the door, Xiao Ping looked at the killer and said coldly: "Say, what is your name, who sent you?" (To be continued.) )
