Zhao Tiezhu retreated into the classroom, with a bit of frightened fear on his ferocious face, and cold sweat on his forehead.
He cautiously looked at the situation outside through the window. When he saw that the police were not approaching and the snipers could no longer target him, he gasped in embarrassment and relaxed.
Feeling the murderer's body behind him trembling slightly, Qin Lang became calmer.A murderer who is afraid of death is much easier to deal with than a desperado.
"Damn, these bullshit police actually want me dead, but I want to live." Zhao Tiezhu muttered to himself a few times, and suddenly patted Qin Lang on the head with a knife, "Boy, squat down, if you dare to move, I will bleed you immediately."
Qin Lang felt happy that the other party was willing to let go of his hold on him, which was a good thing for him.
So he nodded immediately. After the other party let go of his arm, he immediately squatted down without any resistance.
If Zhao Tiezhu had observed carefully at this time, he would have discovered that Qin Lang, who had been in a semi-suffocated state, did not take a big breath after his neck was freed. Instead, he always maintained an unchanging breathing pattern, with his abdomen slightly expanding and contracting.
It's a pity that Zhao Tiezhu couldn't see this.Qin Lang's obedience became cowardice and cowardice in his eyes, while the swelling and contraction of Qin Lang's abdomen became trembling fear in his eyes.
A weak and timid high school student was not enough to pose any threat at all, so why should Zhao Tiezhu be worried.
He held the blood-stained knife and walked around anxiously. From time to time he would go to the window and look outside, and then he would curse, sometimes at the police, sometimes at Mei Yuyan.
"Brother Tiezhu, I really have no intention of harming you. Just treat it like I'm begging you. Can you let that student go? Or, I'll replace that student and I'll be your hostage!" Mei Yuyan's voice amplified through the speaker suddenly came from outside the window.
"Fart, stinky bitch, you and the police are not good friends. Let me tell you, I will kill anyone who dares to come near this classroom." Zhao Tiezhu cursed for a while, and then laughed ferociously: "Stinky bitch, since you want to save this student so much, okay, I will give you a chance now to let your adulterer come over. As long as he is willing to come over and be a hostage, I will let this student go."
Hearing Zhao Tiezhu's words from afar, everyone's eyes fell on Qian Dabing.
"Me?" Qian Dabing, who had been staying at the scene and never left, was immediately startled and subconsciously took a few steps back. It's okay to pick up girls, but if you pick up girls and become hostages, you may lose your life at any time. That's not worth it. Besides, he and Mei Yuyan haven't reached first base yet.
Mei Yuyan caught a glimpse of Qian Dabing's actions from the corner of her eye, showing a hint of disdain. She said loudly: "Brother Tiezhu, what will it take for you to believe me?"
"I said, let the adulterer come over and I will let the student go." Zhao Tiezhu's tone was extremely tough.
Captain Gao came over and patted Mei Yuyan on the shoulder, "Teacher Mei, Zhao Tiezhu is currently very emotional. I'm afraid your persuasion won't mean much."
As he said that, he glanced at the soldier Qian who had quietly slipped into the crowd and quickly disappeared. He snorted disdainfully and said: "As for exchanging people, it won't work. Our purpose is to make the hijackers give up the idea of taking hostages. Exchanging hostages is not a solution to the problem at all."
Mei Yuyan's face darkened and she smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect things to develop to this point. If I can save that student, I can do anything."
"Why, don't you have the guts to come here?" After a while, no reply was heard, and Zhao Tiezhu shouted with a sneer.
"I'll do it!" Captain Gao took the horn from Mei Yuyan's hand and said, "Brother Tiezhu, please don't hurt the hostages. If you have any demands, just ask them. We will satisfy them if they can be met."
"What bullshit demands, I won't believe you policemen, don't fucking try to trick me." Zhao Tiezhu shouted at the top of his lungs in the classroom.
At this time, a melodious ringing of bells spread from all directions in the school.
Hearing this sound, Qin Lang, who had been squatting on the ground obediently, was slightly startled, and soon realized that it was the school bell.
He glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the classroom, and sure enough, the time displayed on it was 11:30 noon, which was the time for school to end.
"This should be the time to eat." Qin Lang thought for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Actually, you should make some requests."
Zhao Tiezhu, who was lying by the window, suddenly turned around, glared at Qin Lang and threatened: "You should take care of your own life first, if you talk nonsense, I will cut out your tongue."
Qin Lang ignored Zhao Tiezhu's threat and said methodically: "The purpose of your holding me hostage is to confront the police. In this case, why not take the opportunity to make some demands that are beneficial to yourself? The simplest thing is that if you want to maintain strong energy, the first thing is food. Otherwise, you will faint from hunger before the police take action."
When speaking these words, Qin Lang used some small vocal techniques, speaking neither too fast nor too slow, and maintaining a certain rhythm.
This rhythm gives people a convincing feeling and can soothe emotions.
Zhao Tiezhu really listened, and even ignored Qin Lang's inconsistent performance, and said to himself: "Yes, it's not okay if I don't eat. I have to ask these policemen to give me some food."
As soon as he finished speaking, his stomach seemed to respond and made a growling sound.
After taking a train for more than ten hours, he rushed to school early in the morning to meet Mei Yuyan. He didn't eat much and was already hungry. He just ignored it because he was always excited.
Zhao Tiezhu rubbed his stomach and suddenly thought of something. His face changed and he shook his head and said, "No, these police officers can't be trusted. They will definitely poison me in the food I eat."
"You don't have to worry about this at all. Not only are you hungry, but I am also hungry, so I can try the food brought by the police first. If there is no problem, you can eat it." Qin Lang made reasonable suggestions.
"It makes sense." Zhao Tiezhu agreed greatly, and immediately went to the window and shouted outside: "You guys bring me some food first. Remember, don't play tricks on me, I will let the hostages eat first."
The reason why he reminded Zhao Tiezhu was to buy himself time.
Although the Changing Breathing Method has no special requirements for the practitioner, it does require a process.Qin Lang must ensure that he will not be harmed by Zhao Tiezhu during this process.
The police acted quickly. In less than twenty minutes, a young girl wearing school cafeteria work clothes appeared at the door of the classroom carrying a bag of lunch boxes.
"Brother, I'm here to deliver food to you, can I come in?"
Zhao Tiezhu checked through the window that no one else was following, then nodded and said: "Come in."
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Zhao Tiezhu who was holding a knife, blood stains on his clothes, and a ferocious look on his face. The girl seemed startled, and unconsciously took a step back. She raised the bag in her hand in panic, "Brother, this is the meal prepared for you by the school cafeteria. I am a cafeteria employee, and the police asked me to deliver it to you. Every wrongdoer has his own debtor, so please don't hurt me."
When she said this, the girl was calmly observing the situation in the classroom from the corner of her eye, which was completely inconsistent with her panic tone.
Seeing the kidnapped student squatting on the ground, trembling, the girl couldn't help but frown slightly, showing an unhappy look.
But what the girl didn't know was that when she was looking at Qin Lang, Qin Lang was also quietly observing her.
He found that although the other party tried his best to hide it, the aura he exuded was very similar to that of the police outside.Of course, if that's all, Qin Lang can't determine the identity of the other party.However, Qin Lang saw the girl's canteen employee's work clothes, revealing a corner of the olive green shirt collar that was deliberately covered up. It was clearly a police uniform.
Coming to such a conclusion, Qin Lang was really annoyed.It's okay for these police officers to be helpless in the face of a madman. Now, now, they have sent such a stupid policewoman who doesn't even know how to change her clothes thoroughly.Once discovered by Zhao Tiezhu, his identity will be exposed immediately and anger him.
Qin Lang cursed those bullshit police officers half to death in his heart.
"What are you waiting for? Bring it to me quickly." Smelling the aroma wafting from the lunch box, Zhao Tiezhu's stomach growled even more, and he urged impatiently.
"Yes, yes, brother, I will get it for you right now." The girl nodded in panic, moved toward Zhao Tiezhu tremblingly, and stammered: "Brother...brother, you...don't hurt me."
When she was only two meters away from Zhao Tiezhu, she bent down slightly and placed the bag on the ground, but quietly reached out to the tallest lunch box inside.
At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly sounded, accompanied by Zhao Tiezhu's angry curse: "Bitch, I can tell at a glance that you are a policeman, and you are still pretending to be with me. You policemen are trying your best to kill me, let's see if I don't chop you to death."
Zhao Tiezhu was completely angered, completely lost his mind, and had no sense of mercy. This knife actually struck the opponent's head directly.
The girl trembled all over and shrank her neck to avoid having her head chopped off, but a few strands of black hair were cut off by the sharp blade and fell down.
It was obviously the first time for the girl to face such a scene. Her face was pale, her breathing was rapid, and her body was shaking. She seemed to have forgotten the skills she had learned in the past about grabbing a sword with bare hands, and she only knew how to touch the lunch box in a hurry.
When her fingers touched the gun hidden in the lunch box, her panicked heart finally calmed down, and she quickly raised the gun and pointed it at Zhao Tiezhu.
"Oops, I forgot to turn on the insurance." The girl didn't bother to blame herself for being careless, and hurriedly opened the insurance in a panic.
The black muzzle of the gun made Zhao Tiezhu's breath stagnate and his expression changed drastically.But the gun didn't go off, which made him feel like he had a narrow escape.And this feeling also aroused his mental patient nature. Since it was life and death, how could he give the other party a chance to shoot again.
Staring with blood-red eyes, Zhao Tiezhu slashed wildly with his knife, "I'll chop you to death, you stinking bitch! I'll cut you into pieces."
The blade went straight towards the policewoman's wrist. It was too late to open the safety guard, so she could only dodge, but in the end the skin was cut by the blade. The scarlet blood was in sharp contrast with the white wrist.
The girl screamed in severe pain, her palms subconsciously loosened, the gun fell, and she took several steps back.
When she came to her senses, Zhao Tiezhu had picked up the gun at some point. This time, the black muzzle of the gun turned around and was pointed at her.
"Smelly bitch, I have served in the militia, and I am no stranger to guns. If you want to kill me, I will send you on your way first."
The girl's mind went blank and she closed her eyes tightly in fear, like a frightened bird.
"I wouldn't have killed her." At this moment, Qin Lang suddenly spoke leisurely, his tone of voice very different from the current tense atmosphere.
