Chapter 162 Why did I bring you along? To make things harder for me?
"Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~"
Xing Zhiyuan and Bai Sicheng crossed the mountaintop at almost the same time and reached the grove behind the mountain.
Upon hearing the first gunshot, he quickly moved towards the sound.
"Bang, bang bang, bang~"
When he arrived, this was the scene he saw.
He Fan's left shoulder was stained with a large patch of blood. She leaned her left arm against the tree trunk to support her right hand holding the gun.
She fired four shots, accurately taking down the kidnapper.
The pistol had considerable recoil, causing blood to gush from her left shoulder again.
At that moment, she had a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, her face was pale, her right hand trembled as she threw away the pistol, and she was swaying precariously.
System: "Ding~ Loyalty of dating target #5, Xing Zhiyuan, +10"
System: "Host, Xing Zhiyuan has arrived."
This was the last thing He Fan heard before he fainted.
It was probably after hearing those words that He Fan dared to faint. Xing Zhiyuan and the others had finally found this place, so they shouldn't have died on the mountain.
Xing Zhiyuan rushed forward and caught He Fan's waist as if it were the first time he had seen her.
The difference this time was that the person in his arms wasn't tense up, but rather pretending to faint with his eyelids trembling involuntarily.
The police officers who were following Bai Sicheng and those who were chasing Xing Zhiyuan arrived at the scene.
"Quick hit 120."
"Also, the kidnapper is injured. Go and drag him to the repair shop."
After saying that, Xing Zhiyuan grabbed He Fan's legs and carried her back in a princess carry.
Midway through, they passed by Bai Sicheng, who was standing beside Bai Siye calling 120.
"Attorney Bai."
......
When Bai Sicheng saw Bai Siye lying on the ground, his body mangled and bloodied, his mind went blank.
He tremblingly touched Bai Siye's nose to feel his breath.
Once he was certain his brother might still be alive, he quickly took out his phone and dialed 120.
But his hands were trembling so badly that it took him a lot of effort to get through on the phone.
"Hello~ Hello, I'm at the Lucheng East Expressway Service Area, heading towards Lucheng..."
"Yes, gunshot wound, head!"
"Come quickly, he's still breathing, he can be saved, he definitely can be saved."
"I'm sure she's still breathing, hurry up."
"..."
Just as he was talking to himself, telling the other person over and over again that there was still hope.
"Attorney Bai."
Bai Sicheng's thoughts were brought back to reality.
He stiffly raised his head; a pair of leather shoes, a police uniform—Xing Zhiyuan.
But who is he holding in his arms?
Tears welled up in Bai Sicheng's eyes, and though he opened his mouth, he couldn't utter a single sound.
"Fan, He, He..."
Why is she on the mountain? Why is she covered in blood on the mountain right now?
Bai Sicheng was a good boy his whole life, and a law-abiding lawyer.
Nothing like today has ever happened in the first half of his life.
His younger brother, he... the girl he considered very important in his life.
One by one, they 'died' before his eyes.
Seeing that Bai Sicheng was on the verge of a breakdown, Xing Zhiyuan quickly gave a wink to the two police officers behind him.
"Check the head wound of the injured person. If the injured person can be moved, quickly take Lawyer Bai and his brother down the mountain."
"It's getting dark, and the mountain path will be even more difficult to walk if we don't go down now."
Having said that, Xing Zhiyuan stepped past Bai Sicheng without waiting for the people behind him.
He didn't have time to wait. He Fan's face was deathly pale, clearly from excessive blood loss, and he needed immediate medical attention.
Thinking this to myself, I quickened my pace.
He ran down the mountain at the fastest speed possible, while trying to avoid any bumps.
System: "Ding~ 5 points have been deducted, host's physique +5."
The tycoon was in a complete mess right now, and He Fan, though dizzy, was in a state of utter confusion, more chaotic than if he were at a bustling market.
She vaguely felt as if she had walked into a vast, white void.
Surrounded by fog, visibility was poor.
She listened to the sound and groped her way forward.
"Beep~ Beep~ Beep~"
"Beep beep beep—"
A blurry shadow appeared before He Fan's eyes.
A small 'thing' was jumping up and down from a bunch of very large machines.
That familiar key press sound?
"A big shot?"
He Fan's voice startled the small shadow, causing its entire body to ripple like wavy lines.
"Hey, host, what are you doing here? I was wondering why I couldn't find you in any of the other dimensions."
He Fan: "???"
"Who are you? A tycoon?"
He Fan shook his head, trying to make out the surroundings and the appearance of the wealthy man.
Unexpectedly, her eyes seemed to lose focus, and the scene before her became increasingly blurry.
Then, the wealthy man's voice rang in his ears: "You should go back now."
She only felt that the light here was becoming increasingly glaring.
She couldn't help but close her eyes tightly, and when she tried to see clearly, what appeared in front of her was a chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
System: "Host, you're awake."
Before He Fan could react, her voice was hoarse: "Um, was that you just now?"
The system was shocked: "...What do you mean it's not me? Host, don't shout it out loud! I'm Da Gan! Let's communicate through consciousness!"
Wu You heard the noise at that moment: "Sister Fan, you're awake? It's me, Wu You."
He Fan felt dizzy for some reason.
She stared blankly at Wu You, her throat feeling extremely dry, making it difficult to speak.
Seeing He Fan's behavior, Wu You became increasingly frightened and quickly pressed the call button on the bedside table.
"Sister Fan, it's me, Wu You. Do you still recognize me?"
After saying that, tears streamed down her face like beads from a broken string.
He Fan found it amusing and wanted to reach out and pat her head, but he couldn't muster any strength in his left shoulder.
"Ouch, that hurts."
Wu You didn't have time to cry at this moment, and quickly looked at him with her eyes to ask where it hurt.
He Fan said helplessly, "I'm not shot in the head, how could I not recognize you? Stop crying."
Wu You nodded, but the tears still wouldn't stop.
"Sister Fan, do you know what? You were unconscious for a whole day and two nights. You really scared me to death."
He Fan was a little surprised: "Has it taken that long?"
Even though her consciousness passes very quickly, and she only dreamt of the tycoon for a few seconds, a day and two nights have already passed?
System: Host, you slept for so long because you lost too much blood and were taken to the hospital by Xing Zhiyuan and given anesthesia.
He Fan: My body is not tolerant to anesthesia, so they kept me under anesthesia until now?
System: ... It's probably because you've developed a high tolerance for anesthesia that you've been under anesthesia for so long.
He Fan: ? ? ?
System: Host, you fainted due to excessive blood loss in the early stages. I added 5 points to your constitution value before you regained consciousness.
System: But when you first arrived at the hospital, the doctor needed to remove the bullet and administer anesthesia. However, the instruments showed that you were still conscious, so the doctor gradually increased the dosage until it was almost three times the normal amount of anesthesia, keeping you anesthetized until now.
He Fan: Uh... okay, so it's all because you're the one who made me dizzy until now.
The system was quite embarrassed: Oh, you shouldn't say that either.
"That's how long it took, Sister Fan. Next time you go to a dangerous place like this, you must take me with you."
Wu You was in tears and wanted to throw herself into He Fan's arms.
He Fan wanted to comfort Wu You, but the more he tried to coax her, the more she cried, so he could only joke about it.
"What, are you taking me to make things harder for myself?"
