Chapter 583
Her eyes searched the crowd in panic for a moment, and finally fell directly on Xu Changfeng.
When she saw the shocking wound that was constantly rolling with flesh and blood, and the blood that was oozing out and dyeing the ground bright red, she felt dizzy and her mind went blank.
Her body swayed uncontrollably for a few times, a faint whimper came from her throat, and she fainted again, collapsing lifelessly on the cold ground.
Seeing Liang Feixing hesitating on the other boat, He Yuzhu sighed helplessly, waved at him vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Feixing, come here quickly and get on my boat!"
Liang Feixing was slightly startled, then he understood and quickly directed the crew to adjust the course and move closer to He Yuzhu's ship.
At the same time, Wei Wuji and He Hongshen in the rear also noticed He Yuzhu's intention. They decisively turned the rudder, turned the bow, paddled hard, splashing layers of water, and followed He Yuzhu's boat closely.
Several ships were sailing through the waves, the sea breeze was whistling, and the sails were rustling.
Soon, the outline of the dock appeared in everyone's sight. The boat slowly approached and docked steadily at the dock. The group finally stepped onto solid land.
After getting ashore, they looked hurried and quickly changed to the car that had been waiting there.
These drivers are all native locals who have lived in this maze-like area with numerous streets and alleys for most of their lives.
They are familiar with the nearby road conditions and can tell the twists and turns of every path with their eyes closed. Naturally, they know the location of the nearest hospital clearly.
The drivers stepped on the accelerator, the car engines roared, and they rushed towards the hospital like wild horses.
The wheels rubbed against the ground violently, making a sharp sound and raising a cloud of dust along the way, leaving only a blurry shadow of the car behind. In this tense and chaotic situation, it rushed towards the place that held the hope of life.
He Yuzhu, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, leaned forward slightly, his brows twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and the solemn expression on his face was like a dark cloud.
His eyes were as deep as an eagle's, and deep in his eyes, his thoughts were running wild like a wild horse.
Just now, when Xu Changfeng's slightly embarrassed figure came into view, He Yuzhu, relying on the sharp intuition tempered in the bloody storms of the martial arts world, only took a quick glance and accurately captured the part where Xu Changfeng was shot - it was the heart!
This discovery was like a heavy hammer that hit his heart hard.
At this moment, Xu Changfeng's face was as pale as paper, and he had no breath. The pulse in his neck, which should have been beating strongly, had stopped beating. He was like a puppet with his life taken away, without a trace of life.
However, looking around, the atmosphere in the car was tense and everyone's nerves were as taut as strings about to break. If they were not careful, unpredictable chaos might occur.
He Yuzhu clenched his teeth, his cheeks bulging slightly due to the force, and he forced down the shock and grief in his heart that was like a tsunami, not letting a single word leak out of his mouth.
When Liang Feixing rushed to the hospital in a panic, the ominous premonition like a dark cloud pressing down on his head instantly enveloped his heart with overwhelming force.
His eyes were wide open and bloodshot, like two burning flames, searching anxiously in the hospital corridor.
When he caught a glimpse of his fellow apprentice brother Xu Changfeng lying on a stretcher, his body shook violently, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand.
He rushed forward and hugged Xu Changfeng tightly, desperately, with such force that it seemed as if he wanted to merge his junior brother into his own body. He tried to use his warm embrace to retain the last bit of life that was about to disappear in the long river of life.
However, his trembling hands could clearly feel that the body, which was originally full of vitality and warmth, was turning cold little by little at a frightening speed.
The chill, like an icy poisonous snake, spread rapidly along his fingertips to the deepest part of his heart, making his soul tremble.
His mind was blank, filled with disbelief and endless panic, as if he was in a dark abyss without a trace of light.
His steps staggered, swaying like leaves in the wind, but he rushed to the emergency room as fast as he could.
At this moment, time seemed to have frozen, and all the sounds around him were blocked out by an invisible barrier. The whole world seemed to be filled with only his rapid and heavy breathing, and the sound of his heartbeat that was pounding like a war drum and almost bursting through his chest.
However, the cruelty of reality is far beyond imagination.
After receiving the emergency notice, several well-known and experienced doctors in the industry rushed over from all corners as soon as possible.
They were dressed in neat and straight white coats and walked in a hurry, not even having time to tidy up their hair that was messed up by the wind.
The various medical instruments in their hands collided with each other, making a series of crisp yet heart-wrenching sounds.
After entering the ward, the doctors quickly gathered around Xu Changfeng's bed, their eyes full of concentration and eagerness.
They carried out the rescue work in an orderly manner. The defibrillator released electric current again and again, trying to wake up the heart that was about to stop beating; the injection syringe went in and out frequently, injecting doses of drugs full of hope.
Time passed by minute by minute, and a tense atmosphere filled the entire ward.
The doctors' foreheads were covered with beads of sweat, which kept sliding down their cheeks and wetting their white coats.
After an exhausting, tense and urgent rescue, the doctors' movements gradually slowed down, and their eyes were filled with powerlessness and helplessness.
Finally, one of the older doctors slowly shook his head, and in a very sad and hoarse voice, announced to everyone present the heartbreaking news that was like a bolt from the blue - Xu Changfeng was dead.
This bad news was like a bolt from the blue, exploding among the crowd in an instant.
When Wei Wuji heard the news, his eyes suddenly widened, his eye sockets turned red instantly, and tears rolled down uncontrollably like a flood.
His lips were trembling violently and his throat seemed to be choked by something. He wanted to say something but couldn't utter a single word. His heart simply could not accept this cruel fact.
Xu Changfeng, the brother who had fought side by side with him in countless difficult missions, shared life and death with him, and was as close as a brother, left so suddenly.
The scenes of the past when they were running through gunfire and hail of bullets and trying to survive in desperate situations kept flashing through his mind like a knives. Each scene was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.
Liang Feixing felt as if his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows. A sharp pain came over him, and his legs instantly went limp, and he fell to the ground with a thump.
Then, a heart-wrenching wail broke out from deep in his chest. The cry was shrill and desperate, like the howling of a wounded beast, and it kept echoing throughout the emergency room.
This grief-stricken voice was filled with his deep reluctance to part with Xu Changfeng and his endless pain. It seemed as if he wanted to vent all the sorrow in his heart without reservation, making everyone who heard it feel so sad that they couldn't help but shed tears.
At the same time, Lin Wanting woke up slowly on the way.
The air in the cabin was turbid and stuffy. Her consciousness was still wandering in chaos at first, and her eyes were full of confusion, as if she didn't know where she was.
As her thoughts gradually returned to place, bits and pieces of words from the people around her floated into her ears. When she heard the news of Xu Changfeng's death, she felt her brain go blank for an instant, as if a heavy hammer had hit her heart.
Her body swayed, her mental defenses collapsed again, her vision went dark, her legs went weak, and without any warning she fainted once again. She fell down weakly, looking extremely vulnerable.
He Yuzhu on the side was filled with astonishment, his expression as complicated as if a bottle of five flavors had been overturned.
He was originally confident in his own strength and thought it was enough to easily subdue the enemies on the ship.
But the reality was like a loud slap in the face. The enemies' strength was far beyond his expectations, and they were able to brutally beat a living person to death.
Recalling the thrilling battle just now, the cabin was filled with bullets and smoke, and every second was on the verge of life and death.
The bullet flew past the corner of his clothes, and the sharp whistling sound was still ringing in his ears. The enemy's hideous face and fierce moves kept replaying in his mind like a nightmare.
He Yuzhu secretly rejoiced that he was still alive and that this nightmare was finally coming to an end.
Fortunately, after a fierce battle, all three men were finally captured. Although one of them died unfortunately, when you think about it carefully, the responsibility does not fall on him.
The situation was extremely critical at the time and the enemy's attack was like a tide. If he had not relied on his superb martial arts to show mercy in the moment of life and death, these people would probably have been shot to pieces and died when they were first attacked.
Now, only one life has been lost. In such a dangerous situation where one is almost mortal, it is a blessing in disguise and the best outcome.
Since the man did not die at his hands, the blood debt naturally has nothing to do with him and cannot be counted against him.
Since the person has unfortunately passed away, according to common sense, the body will naturally be temporarily placed in the hospital.
He Yuzhu stood in the hospital corridor with a solemn expression and a cold and decisive look in his eyes.
He knew very well that Liang Feixing and Wei Wuji had a deep friendship with the deceased and must be extremely sad at this moment. If his emotions got out of control, they would most likely do something impulsive and destroy the already delicate and complicated situation.
So, without any hesitation, he flashed and took action quickly, sealing Liang Feixing and Wei Wuji's Dantian with lightning speed.
This move was clean and neat, without any delay. The two men only felt a numbness in their lower abdomen, and all the strength in their bodies instantly faded away like the tide. Their legs went limp and they almost collapsed to the ground.
He Yuzhu looked at them with a look that contained both sympathy and unquestionable majesty.
Afterwards, He Yuzhu looked around and selected a person from his entourage. This person was calm and reliable, and he always made people feel at ease when doing things.
He Yuzhu walked up to him and said in a concise but clear manner: "You stay here. First, you must take good care of Mr. Liang and Mr. Wei. They are emotionally unstable at the moment. You must ensure their safety and don't let them do anything radical. Second, you must assist in handling the subsequent funeral arrangements. Every link must be arranged properly without any negligence. Remember, the deceased is the greatest, and it must be handled with dignity and respect."
The man nodded solemnly and left.
After He Yuzhu arranged all this, he took another deep look in the direction of the ward, turned around and strode away. He had more important things to deal with. The turmoil caused by the deceased was far from over.
After doing all this, He Yuzhu took Lin Wanting back to the International Building.
The car sped along the streets of the bustling city. The neon lights on both sides complemented each other, and the light and shadow kept changing on the car window, but they could not penetrate Lin Wanting's gloomy heart, which was like falling into an ice cellar.
Her mood was extremely bad, as if she had fallen into an endless abyss, and the grief-stricken emotions completely drowned her like a surging tide.
Tears rolled down her cheeks like beads from a broken string. She cried so hard that she almost fainted.
However, when she inadvertently caught a glimpse of He Yuzhu's face, which was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it, her heart suddenly tightened.
He Yuzhu is usually ruthless, but in this complicated and treacherous situation, he is like a frightened bird and can only move forward cautiously and carefully.
At this moment, even though she felt a thousand grievances stuck in her throat, she could only endure it, bury all the pain deep in her heart, and swallow it silently.
Long before this, He Yuzhu had already conducted an extremely rigorous interrogation of Lin Wanting.
In the interrogation room, the atmosphere was so oppressive that it made people feel breathless. The dim lights on the walls flickered, as if they would go out at any time.
He Yuzhu sat upright at the table, his eyes like two sharp knives, closely scrutinizing every subtle movement of Lin Wanting, not missing any clues that might reveal the truth.
As the interrogation progressed, He Yuzhu keenly realized that there seemed to be some unusual connection between Lin Wanting and the man named Xu Changfeng.
From the change in Lin Wanting's eyes when she mentioned Xu Changfeng, to her deliberate avoidance of their past interactions, all signs indicate that the relationship between them is by no means as simple as ordinary friends.
After meticulous investigation and verification by He Yuzhu's team, it was finally confirmed that Lin Wanting still maintained her innocence in key matters.
Upon learning of this result, He Yuzhu couldn't help but feel relieved.
He knew very well that in this complicated situation, Lin Wanting's innocence was crucial to his subsequent plans.
However, He Yuzhu knew very well in his heart that what he really wanted was just to control Lin Wanting.
In his opinion, feelings, which are invisible and intangible, are too illusory and far less reliable than real interests.
In this business world full of calculations and transactions, only interests are the eternal truth.
Now, Xu Changfeng has died, and the stumbling block that might have prevented him from getting Lin Wanting has disappeared.
He Yuzhu felt that he had no reason to be unnecessarily jealous over a meaningless emotional entanglement. What he had to do now was to completely bring Lin Wanting into his sphere of influence according to the established plan.
