A Hero's Mission (2) (Finale)
"Hahaha-" Shan Xiang suddenly laughed, laughing sadly and sadly, "Gu Hengyu, I love you wholeheartedly, and I am willing to do anything for you." But at the end of the day, I'm worthless in your heart. That woman, she doesn't love you at all, but you are fascinated by him, do you really want to die for her? β
"I'm not going to die, I'm going to get her out." Gu Hengyu's eyes were firm, resolute and stubborn. He didn't even look at Shan Xiang, and rushed into the factory without looking back.
Chen Yufei took Mu Qingcheng out of the pool, they couldn't go to the aisle, Chen Yufei didn't dare to risk taking Mu Qingcheng out of the window, Shan Xiang was outside, she had a gun in her hand, and Gu Hengyu might not let them leave safely.
"Let's find out if there are any stairs." Chen Yufei explored the way in front, and Mu Qingcheng followed behind her. There is a spiral stone staircase in front of him, constantly rotating upward, the higher he goes, the darker the light becomes, Mu Qingcheng is a little dizzy, and with the painting in his arms, his steps begin to tremble.
Chen Yufei saw that she was very struggling, and took the scroll in her hand. The two of them finally reached the concrete platform above, and there was a passage in front of them, and the light from the distant window could be faintly seen. Chen Yufei asked her to wait here and go and see for herself. Mu Qingcheng breathed a long sigh of relief and took a few steps forward, wanting to relax for a while. Suddenly, she tripped over something under her feet and threw herself forward. To her horror, she found that instead of the concrete floor, she was approaching the ground, but a quadrangular cavity that suddenly opened wide.
This is a longitudinal tunnel that was originally used to install elevators, without any obstruction. Mu Qingcheng twisted her body in an instant, and the right half of her body was almost about to fall into the pit, but fortunately, she grabbed the edge of the ground with her right hand. But only the tips of his fingers were scratching the ground, and the part below the waist had completely fallen. Although his left hand was also on the ground, his whole body had become hanging on the ground. Her body was shaking, the sand on the concrete floor was moving her fingertips out little by little, she didn't know how many seconds she could last, this was at least the height of the third floor, if she fell, she would fall into cripples if she didn't die.
Bursts of despair struck, and at this moment, Chen Yufei, who found that the situation was wrong, pounced and used all the strength of his body to try to pull Mu Qingcheng up. But she was a woman after all, and her strength was limited, so she couldn't pull Mu Qingcheng up at all.
When Gu Hengyu arrived, he saw Mu Qingcheng's body slide down and disappear from the wall on the right. He thought she had fallen, and rushed over like crazy, only to let out a long breath when he came to him, she just couldn't support her body and was swallowed up by the square hollow, Chen Yufei was still holding her wrist tightly, but Chen Yufei's strength was almost exhausted.
Gu Hengyu came to the rescue, he pulled Mu Qingcheng up and hugged her in his arms. Her wrist was still tightly grasped by Chen Yufei, who was sure that she was out of danger before letting go of her hand and slumping on the ground.
Mu Qingcheng was already exhausted, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and his hands were almost so sore and numb that he lost consciousness, but he still tried to struggle out of Gu Hengyu's embrace.
"Don't move, let me hug you one last time." Gu Hengyu hugged her like a wounded beast protecting the little beast in his arms, "I know, my image in your mind has collapsed, we are people from two different worlds, and we can't get together after all." β
"Why?" Mu Qingcheng had long hair scattered, his face was pale, and his wide-open eyes were full of grief.
"My father was an antiquities thief, and that was probably my birthright. Also, my mother was killed, but I can't avenge her......" Gu Hengyu closed his eyes tightly, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were blazing, like two cold stars in the sky, "You have a mission, and my fate has not ended." I can only save you this time, and then I'll leave it to fate. β
Chen Yufei got up from the ground and pulled Mu Qingcheng up from Gu Hengyu's arms, she stared at Gu Hengyu with guarded eyes, but Mu Qingcheng's eyes were still full of grief.
Gu Hengyu was still sitting on the ground, he looked at Mu Qingcheng for a moment, slowly and clearly: "I have turned off the electric switch, you go past the edge of the pool, and at the end of the walkway, there is a window leading to the other end of the factory." Let's go, it's up to your luck to see if we'll catch up next. β
"Let's go!" Chen Yufei picked up the painting on the ground, pulled Mu Qingcheng and left. Mu Qingcheng finally glanced back at Gu Hengyu, she wanted to say something, but her throat was dry and astringent, and she couldn't make a sound. Gu Hengyu met her gaze and smiled reluctantly, that smile was bitter and desolate. "Let's go." His eyes looked at her with such a fascination, earnestness, and pleadingness.
Her nerves were immediately cramped, and she didn't dare to look at her again, so she staggered away with Chen Yu.
When the two arrived at the pool, Chen Yufei was not very relieved, but he still threw a small pebble to test it, and after making sure that he would not be electrocuted, the two of them waded through the water and quickly entered the opposite aisle. At the end of the aisle, Chen Yufei jumped out of the window first, and then pulled Mu Qingcheng out. The two of them walked out along the wall of the factory, Chen Yufei quietly poked his head out and found Shan Xiang still holding a gun, standing at the gate of the factory with his back to them. She was worried about how to get out, and when she turned her eyes, she found that Chen Yanjin's car was still parked where she got off just now, and the parking place was relatively hidden, and from the location of Shan Xiang, the car could not be seen.
"Follow me, don't make a sound." Chen Yufei whispered, "Try to run against the wall and run to the white car in front." β
Despite their best efforts, the two were unable to escape before Shan Xiang found out. Shan Xiang fired a shot at Mu Qingcheng, but missed, she continued to shoot. Fortunately, Chen Yanjin had seen them and drove the car over, and the two got into the car as fast as they could, and the bullet hit the body, and the whole car shook violently.
"Hold on to the handrails!" As soon as Chen Yufei's words fell, Chen Yanjin had already stepped on the accelerator fiercely, and the car spun around and rushed out like an arrow off the string.
Gu Hengyu also rushed out when he heard the gunshots. "Drive up to them!" Shan Xiang screamed, "Don't you really want that painting, how can you be worthy of your father, how can you be worthy of his trust in you!" β
Gu Hengyu ran to Shan Xiang's car without saying a word, Shan Xiang quickly got into the car, Gu Hengyu started the car and chased Chen Yanjin and them.
The factory is halfway up the mountain, and Chen Yanjin drove the car fast and circled on the mountain road. But Gu Hengyu's skills were superior, and the car behind him gradually caught up.
Shan Xiang shot at the wheels in front of her from the window. "Bang bang bang-" Several gunshots rang out in a row, the tire was shot, the speed weakened, Chen Biting Jin stepped on the accelerator desperately, Mu Qingcheng's heart almost jumped to his throat, and his internal organs were about to be scattered. Shan Xiang continued to shoot, and when he arrived at the fork in the road, Chen Yanjin twisted the steering wheel violently and drove to the left, Shan Xiang saw the opportunity to shoot at the window glass of the cab, and several gunshots rang out in a row, the bullet penetrated the glass and hit Chen Yanjin's head, and blood flowed down, but he didn't let go, gritted his teeth to support, and continued to drive.
The siren whistled and came, it was Cheng Yijie who came with the special police team, and when bandaging the original traces of "Han Xizai's Night Banquet", Cheng Yijie tore off the button on his shirt with communication equipment and put it in it. After successfully rescuing Cheng Sally, he followed them down.
Shan Xiang had already lost her mind, shot desperately, ran out of bullets, pulled out the gun on Gu Hengyu's body, and continued to shoot.
The road became more and more blurry in front of Chen Yanjin's eyes, and his vision quickly became narrower, he couldn't drive any further, there was a forest on the left, he used his last strength to drive the car into the forest, and a big tree appeared in front of him, and instantly attacked them. Chen Yufei and Mu Qingcheng exclaimed at the same time. Chen Yanjin's vision was completely blurred, and he subconsciously stepped on the brake and pulled the handbrake.
With the tearing and piercing sound of brakes, all the light in the world disappeared in front of Chen Yanjin.
"Brother-brother-" Chen Yanjin heard his sister's call, as if it came from the distant sky.
"Brother knows...... You've been ...... Look down on me...... It's just going to make money...... Showing off his wealth......" he blinked his sinking eyelids, "actually...... Brother too...... There is a ...... to pursue"
"Brother-" Chen Yufei cried bitterly, "As long as you are good, I will never look down on you again, and I will never look down on you!" β
"I ...... At last...... Heroes? Chen Yanjin raised his hand with great difficulty, trying to grab his sister's hand.
Chen Yufei held his hand, and tears continued to pour out on the back of his hand. "Countβcountβyou're my hero......" she cried breathlessly.
Chen Biting Jin's consciousness sank into the endless abyss forever, but the corners of his mouth rose up, and he died with a smile.
"Brotherβ" Tears flowed frantically on Chen Yufei's face, and her hysterical cry rang out in the woods. Mu Qingcheng on the side, tears couldn't stop rolling down.
Outside the woods, Shan Xiang was killed on the spot because of his stubborn resistance. As for Gu Hengyu, he didn't have any act of resistance. He stood in the encirclement of the SWAT, his face surprisingly calm. He stared at Cheng Yijie. After a long time, he said in a low voice: "I lost, and I was convinced." β
"Why do you want to build a murder website that kills so many people?" Cheng Yijie's face was solemn.
"Killed? You're wrong, those people deserve to die. I built the 'Killing' website to help those who want revenge fulfill their wishes. Because I can empathize with their pain, no one understands them better than me, and no one is more capable of helping them than I am. Those who take revenge, they are driven by their own will to commit crimes, and they fulfill their wishes, and they also have to pay the corresponding price, including their lives. Gu Hengyu smiled slightly, "Of course, there is another purpose, which is to compete with you, I have heard of your name for a long time, so let Jim approach you and pull you into the gang." On the one hand, use your talent and wisdom to help us steal precious artifacts. On the other hand, I help the person who wants revenge to lay out, so that you can try to break the game and compete with you secretly. What I didn't expect was that we would fall in love with the same woman, but that made the fight even more intense and interesting. β
"So many people died, you actually found it funny?" Cheng Yijie's expression was awe-inspiring, "A crime is a crime, no matter what the reason is, it is impossible to be forgiven." β
"You can't walk into my world, just like I can't understand your heart." Gu Hengyu lowered his head and looked at the single incense lying on the ground, covered in blood, with a feeling of depression, depression, and sourness. After a long time, he raised his head again, stared at Cheng Yijie seriously and solemnly, and said word by word in an almost painful tone: "Both Shengyu and He Shengliang!" β
Overhead, dark clouds rolled overhead, and the whole world was engulfed in gloomy gray. However, in the western corner, there is still a slight red.
Cheng Sally's husband and children were locked up on the top floor of the abandoned factory and were successfully rescued. The original "Han Xizai Night Banquet" was returned to the British Museum, and the museum decided to hand over the painting to Mu Qingcheng to continue the restoration, and then combined it with the Song Renlin copy of the Xilin City Museum, and the two museums jointly held a traveling exhibition in China, so that more Chinese could see the style of the famous paintings.
After returning to Xilin, Cheng Yijie handed He Muxuan's relics to Xia Mo, which was his mobile phone. "The last text message he didn't send was for you." Cheng Yijie's tone was painful.
Xia Mo clicked on the mailbox of her mobile phone with a trembling hand, and the message sent to her was only three short words - "I love you".
Xia Mo caressed those three words through the phone screen. "He's a hero, I'm proud of him......" She couldn't stop crying, holding her phone to her chest, tears pouring down.
"Han Xizai's Night Banquet" is made by the great painter Gu Hong of the five dynasties, Gu Hengyu is the descendant of Gu Hong, the original trace, his father wants to collect it permanently at home, so after stealing the original trace from the British Museum, he also tried every means to steal the Song people's copy of the Xilin City Museum, pretending to be the original for profit." Cheng Yijie told Mu Qingcheng about Gu Hengyu's life experience, "Gu Hengyu's father is a wealthy man in the Philippines, and he made his fortune by stealing and reselling cultural relics. Gu Hengyu has been very smart and studious since he was a child, and he stands out among his peers.
When he was 10 years old, Gu Hengyu's mother was killed by unknown people, and the murderer has never been caught. After the death of the mother, the father remarried, and the stepmother brought a daughter, that is, Shan Xiang, and the two were brother and sister who were not related by blood. Xilin is his mother's hometown, so Gu Hengyu chose to work in the museum here, secretly inherited his father's business, and became the leader of a huge cultural relics theft gang. Shan Xiang fell in love with Gu Hengyu deeply and followed him here, in order to hide his identity, he claimed to be his cousin. Gu Hengyu has actually been living in pain, as a cultural relics worker, he has to do the business of stealing cultural relics. Eager to avenge his mother, but unable to do anything, he can only vent his inner hatred by building a murder website. β
Mu Qingcheng remembered what Chen Yufei said to her privately after Chen Yanjin's memorial service. "That day in the factory, when I grabbed your hand, there was a moment when I wanted to let go." Chen Yufei said frankly, "Everyone has a seed of killing intent buried in their hearts, and it will suddenly sprout at a certain moment. I thought to myself, if I let go, no one would doubt the cause of your death. In that case, I'll have a chance to get Yijie, and if he wants to choose other than you, his first choice must be me. However, such thoughts are only fleeting, and if I do that, I will be condemned by my conscience for the rest of my life. β
"Do you have the seed of murderous intent in your heart?" She asked Cheng Yijie.
Cheng Yijie was slightly stunned for a moment before replying: "Maybe, good and evil are often only in one thought." However, I will not put the killing intent into action, it is a crime and it is unforgivable! β
"Of course you don't commit crimes, you're a big hero, and you're doing great things." There was sincere reverence and admiration in Mu Qingcheng's eyes, "I'm proud of you!" β
Cheng Yijie's heart was shocked, Xia Mo also said such things. His eyes were moist, and his good brothers, who had been born and died together, were now buried in the ground. Fighting for faith and loyalty, forgetting life and death, this is the hero's mission.
"What's wrong?" Mu Qingcheng felt his strangeness.
"Let's talk about something happy." Cheng Yijie hugged her, "Cheng Lang and your cousin are already on their way back, and they will arrive tomorrow." β
"Gee, how's they going?" Mu Qingcheng's curiosity was immediately aroused.
"Cheng Lang only said two words on the phone, 'there is a play'. It seems that my mom is finally going to get her wish, and she should be happy soon. Cheng Yijie had something to say.
Mu Qingcheng glanced at him, and a smile appeared on his face. Cheng Yijie also smiled.
Clear and clear skies in summer with no clouds. Under the sun, they looked at each other with a deep smile, their eyes tightly intertwined.
