Chapter 279: A Strange Case

Chinese New Year's Eve passed quietly, and the calendar turned over and came to January 1, 153.

The new year is new, the fringe buildings are lit up, and the mercenaries have changed into new clothes, ready to travel together to find a place to play.

Su Mo had a whole night with everyone last night, and didn't get up until ten o'clock in the morning.

Before the crossing, after the New Year, I think I will be dragged by my parents to go to relatives, and I will have to face the salary torture of the seven aunts and eight aunts and the marriage offensive.

Fortunately, he had no relatives after the crossing, so he was spared this catastrophe.

But New Year's greetings are still indispensable, after all, as the head of the regiment, there are too many contacts that need to be maintained externally.

At this time, Su Mo was lying on the lazy sofa in the entertainment area, talking to acquaintances in the address book on the phone.

"Happy New Year, Madam Earl! Another year has passed, you were 18 last year, and you should be 17 this year, hahahaha send me New Year's goods? Oh, you're welcome, I don't lack anything of the fruit I grow? Oh, I've got to try it! Okay, good, I'll let people sign for it when the time comes~"

"Old D, good fellow, are you still sleeping? On the first day of the new year, do you want to come out for a drink in the evening? Oh. There is an appointment. Okay then, next time. ”

"Man, happy new year, where was you yesterday. It's okay to work overtime overnight in Chinese New Year's Eve??? The city council is really inappropriate. At night? I'm free. You don't have a party over there? All pushed?! Then I'm really flattered, I will definitely come! See you later! ”

As soon as Su Mo finished calling, KK came in and said, "Big brother, the head of Shangguan is here." ”

Shangguan Li walked in the door and greeted Su Mo: "Happy New Year, Captain Su." ”

Mercenaries, an industry that relies on strength and connections, are indispensable for people to be sophisticated.

Shangguan Li and Su Mo had a friendship because of St. Rivland and his party.

What's more, Dongdong was accepted as a disciple.

There is such a layer of "political marriage", and the relationship between Edge and Mo Xue can be described as in the honeymoon period.

Shangguan Li said hello last night, and he is coming to visit the door today.

Su Mo got up and said with a smile: "Happy New Year, Shangguan, sit casually, take whatever you want to eat, just treat this place as your own home." ”

Shangguan Li was not polite, sat down and picked up the apple on the plate and took a bite, and said to the consultant: "Knock knock?" ”

Su Mo smiled mysteriously and said, "I'll take you to her." ”

The two of them came to the gymnasium, which was empty, no one was in or out, and only the constant noise could be heard from inside the gate.

Su Mo cautiously pushed the door open a crack and motioned for Shangguan to leave to take a look.

Shangguan Li looked quietly.

In the huge gymnasium, there was only one person in Dongdong.

On the first day of the new year, Dongdong didn't go to play games, didn't go out to play, but was very self-disciplined and was practicing martial arts here.

She was holding a wooden gun in her hand, and she was poking at the puppet target in front of her in a good manner, dancing vigorously.

Shangguan Li, who has always been unsmiling, actually smiled with relief at this time: "You really picked up a treasure and went home." My apprentices would wake up with a smile if she had half the effort. ”

Su Mo sighed with emotion: "Thank you so much for your willingness to guide Dong Dong, I can't teach martial arts." ”

Shangguan Li smiled slightly: "It's okay, I saw the shadow of myself when I was a child in her." I am happy to be able to train a master with my own hands, no matter who she plays for. ”

Su Mo admired Su Mo very much, and he asked with a smile, "Shall we go in and say hello to her?" ”

Shangguan Li closed the door and shook his head: "She just entered the state, don't bother her." Let's go back. ”

The two found a tea room, KK brought refreshments, made tea very skillfully, and the three chatted while watching TV.

After chatting for more than half an hour, the replay of the New Year's party changed and a piece of news was inserted.

In the picture, I saw a reporter hiding behind the corner, poking his brain out from time to time, and said to the camera with a serious expression: "Audience friends, it's a breaking news now." ”

"There is an emergency in a residential neighborhood in the Rusty Walls district, where a man holds his wife hostage at gunpoint and is confronting the sheriff."

"It is reported that the man usually works smoothly and lives in harmony, and neighbors, relatives and friends have told this station that he is a very friendly person, and no one knows why he made such violent actions, so let's further investigate the situation at the scene."

The photographer carried the camera and ran around with the reporter, and the lens was bumpy.

After a short time, the camera came to a position closer to the scene of the crime.

There are two security patrol cars parked in the community, and several sheriffs are hiding behind the cars with guns.

At the door of a private building not far away, a young man holding a pistol and holding a beautiful woman hostage.

The woman trembled and broke down in fright.

What is amazing is that the face of the man with the gun is not as ruthless or crazy as a gangster should be, and he is also crying.

He cried out to the sheriff, "I'm sorry I'm not a bad person. But I have to."

The sheriff shouted: "Son, if you have any troubles, you can tell us, we will solve the difficulties for you, don't be impulsive!" ”

The man cried and shook his head: "You can't help me. Only in this way can I save my parents and children."

The sheriff continued to persuade: "Child, believe in the sheriff's office!" No matter what kind of persecution your relatives are subjected to, we will do our best to save them! Put down your guns so we can help you! ”

The man kept shaking his head, he didn't speak again, his chest breathing widened, and those sad tearful eyes began to fill with determination and madness.

He looked at the cameras of the reporters not far away, as if he wanted to talk to someone, and shouted at the camera: "Keep your promise!" Keep your promises!! ”

The sheriff sensed that something was wrong, and his voice became stern: "Calm down! Put the gun down! Right away!!! ”

"Bang!" The man pulled the trigger and shot his wife through the head in his arms.

The sheriff quickly returned fire.

"Bang bang-" The surrounding sheriffs opened fire at the same time, beating the man into a hornet's nest, and the body fell in a pool of blood with his wife, shivering and stopping.

The exclamations of the residents kept ringing in the residential building, and even the photographer with the camera came to say "Walter Jake Fake", and then quickly zoomed in on the camera to give a close-up of the corpse.

The reporter waved in front of the camera, signaled to pull the camera back, and then said with a serious expression: "As you can see, the prisoner has been killed." ”

"We don't know what the cause of this kidnapping is, is it caused by some kind of mental disorder? Or was it coercion? ”

"Why do the prisoners say that this is the only way to save their parents and children? Who is the last word to keep your promises? There are so many mysteries that haunt us."

"On the first day of the New Year in Dawn 153, such a tragedy broke out in Crescent City, which is really disturbing. We will continue to follow up on the report, so please tune in. (End of chapter)
