Chapter XVII. Peaceful Settlement

The shopkeeper made a "please" gesture to Wu Tongguang and said, "Miss Wu, it's down there." ”

Wu Tongguang bowed slightly and replied, "You lead the way." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, lifted his robe, and walked up the steps to the basement. At this moment, Wu Tongguang took out a black pistol from his waist and pointed it directly at the back of the shopkeeper's head.

Wu Tongguang knew very well that if Wu Xiaomei volunteered to meet her, how could she choose the location in the basement? He estimated that Wu Xiaomei was likely to be kidnapped.

And this pistol was kept by Lin Xiaotian at that time for Wu Tongguang. After entering Nanjing Station to work, Wu Tongguang wanted to return the gun to Lin Xiaotian several times, but Lin Xiaotian asked Wu Tongguang to keep it for himself, and he was ready for self-defense.

The shopkeeper suddenly felt that the back of his head was being pushed against a hard object, and the tactile feedback to him was that the hard object should be a gun or something. So he stopped, and before Wu Tongguang could speak, he raised his hands very cooperatively and made a gesture of surrender. Puzzled, he asked, "Mr. Wu, what are you doing here?" Although Wu Tongguang turned his back to the shopkeeper and couldn't see his expression, the tone of his voice was as kind as before, and he couldn't hear a trace of panic.

Wu Tongguang lowered his voice and asked, "Where is my sister, what did you do to him?" ”

"Secretary Wu, will you shoot? Don't go too far. The shopkeeper did not directly answer Wu Tongguang's question.

Wu Tongguang heard that the shopkeeper could accurately tell his identity, and he couldn't help but "chuckle" in his heart. It seems that this group of people came prepared, and it is not just an ordinary little thief to scare and scare. But Wu Tongguang knew that he couldn't show timidity at this time, so he stubbornly continued, "Since you know that I am a military commander, you dare to trouble my family. If you know each other, let my sister go. ”

As soon as the words fell, Wu Tongguang heard a slight but rapid footstep behind him. Although the footsteps were soft, each stroke stimulated Wu Tongguang's nerves, and Wu Tongguang knew that it was the guy at the door who heard the strange noise here and came over.

Wu Tongguang didn't wait for the shopkeeper's answer, so he grabbed the collar of his neck, pulled it back, and strangled his neck with his left arm. The gun in his right hand was only on the shopkeeper's temple, and then Wu Tongguang grabbed the shopkeeper's neck and turned half a circle.

After doing this series of actions, the young man also went around to the back of the big closet, and with the sound of pulling the bolt with a "click", the muzzle of a black shell gun with a hole in the hole pointed directly at Wu Tongguang's forehead.

Wu Tongguang was shocked by this scene and broke out in a cold sweat, he thought that no matter what the situation was, as long as he took out a gun, he would be able to suppress the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party also had a gun on him.

It is true that Wu Tongguang will shoot, this is in the war years, and I will see it. But if he really wanted to pull the trigger on a big living person, he really couldn't do it.

Wu Tongguang's upper and lower lips squirmed, but he couldn't speak. It was the shopkeeper in front of him, who stretched out his right hand to the young man and patted it down, signaling the young man to put away the gun.

The young man understood, but he didn't put the gun away immediately, the nervous expression on his face was no less than Wu Tongguang, and he said intermittently, "He, he is, the person of the military commander!" ”

Wu Tongguang could tell that these people seemed to be very afraid of the military commander, and he couldn't help but relax a little in his heart.

I only heard the shopkeeper reply, "I'll be fine, you go to the door and watch first." ”

The young man looked at the shopkeeper and hesitated for a moment, then glared at Wu Tongguang angrily, and then reluctantly put the gun away. If the eyes can kill, then the young man has now successfully put down Wu Tongguang.

Hearing the footsteps of the young man gradually moving away, Wu Tongguang was really relieved, he let go of the arm that held the shopkeeper, and at the same time put the gun on the back of the shopkeeper's head back into his waist, Wu Tongguang realized that the gun could not scare this group of lawbreakers, so he simply put it away and solved the matter by peaceful means.

The shopkeeper who was released grabbed his throat with his hand and coughed sharply, thinking that Wu Tongguang was a little strong in choking his neck just now because of nervousness.

When the shopkeeper's coughing subsided slightly, he gasped for breath. Wu Tongguang said with a little pleading, "Your kidnapping is nothing more than to ask for money, as long as you release my sister, I will give you five big yellow croaker, and I will never break my word." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and asked, "If I want to kidnap Miss Wu, I shouldn't have negotiated the price with you first, do I have it?" ”

Wu Tongguang looked at the shopkeeper in a daze, thought for a while, and felt that what the shopkeeper said did make some sense.

Seeing that Wu Tongguang was a little shaken, the shopkeeper continued, "Please, Mr. Wu." ”

Wu Tongguang stared straight at the shopkeeper, and there was a murderous aura in his eyes, and at this time Wu Tongguang simply turned his heart sideways. He thought that even if it was Longtan Tiger's Den today, he would have to break through.

Wu Tongguang took out the Browning pistol from his waist again, but this time he did not point the muzzle of the gun directly at the shopkeeper, but carried the gun to the stairs of the basement a few times, signaling the shopkeeper to go down first.

The shopkeeper was stunned by Wu Tongguang's sudden murderous aura. But in an instant, he regained his standard kind expression, smiled and nodded, and walked towards the basement.

The steps leading to the basement were very steep, Wu Tongguang followed closely behind the shopkeeper, and the two of them walked slowly step by step. It is estimated that after going down seven or eight steps, you will reach the basement. It was already pitch black, and the light on the ground could no longer shine in. Because of the darkness, Wu Tongguang couldn't help but clench the gun in his hand tighter.

The shopkeeper fumbled around the wall, and with a "gaba" sound, the shopkeeper pulled the switch of the electric light, and the place where they were immediately lit up.
