“I have one,” said Qin Yang. Then he abruptly came closer to Gu Yusheng and said in an intentionally low voice, “Captain Gu, why do you ask? Don’t you remember that you’ve already left the army? You can’t use a gun.”
“Erm,” responded Gu Yusheng. He stared at the second floor of a nearby coffee shop for several seconds, then continued to say in a flat tone, “But I have you.”
“Me?” Qin Yang shook his head, but when he was about to say that he couldn’t, he seemed to understand something all of a sudden. He and Gu Yusheng looked at each other for a short moment. After that, Qin Yang asked Gu Yusheng for confirmation in a mysterious tone, “You mean…?”

Gu Yusheng didn’t answer but only nodded, then pointed to the coffee shop that he had stared at, saying, “I’ve already checked, that place has the best view. You report that to your superior for permission, and I’ll wait for you there.”
After a moment of hesitation, Qin Yang turned his head to look at the spot where the hostages could have been killed at any time, and gritted his teeth, saying, “Okay.” He immediately turned around and left.
Standing outside of the caution tape, Gu Yusheng stared at the spot for a while, then turned around and said to Qin Zhi’ai in a low voice, “Let’s go.” Then he strode ahead toward the coffee shop.
…
The passers-by on the street had been evacuated in the shortest time.
In the coffee house, only the owner was left. As soon as Gu Yusheng entered the building, he stuffed a stack of money into the owner’s hand, told him to stay downstairs, then took Qin Zhi’ai to the second floor.
There were two private rooms facing right down to the tense situation on the street. Gu Yusheng stood by the windows of the two rooms and looked downstairs through the glass, then chose the one on the left after comparing.
Since the situation was seriously urgent, Qin Yang’s approval was granted very quickly. After Gu Yusheng had just chosen the right room, Qin Yang arrived with an oblong box in his arms.
When he passed the box to Gu Yusheng, he also handed him a pair of noise canceling earplugs.
Gu Yusheng took them and tilted his head to look at Qin Zhi’ai, who was standing near them, as if he had realized something. After about five seconds passed, he suddenly put the box down and walked towards her.

He stood in front of her silently, reached out, and stuffed the earplugs directly into her ears. Then he waved at Qin Yang and pointed at Qin Zhi’ai, saying, “Take good care of her.”
After that, he picked up the box and walked to the window.
“Captain Gu, there are three criminals down there. If you fire the gun for the first time, the other two will be alerted, so you have to shoot them down before they can react!”
Although the world was deadly silent, and none of the noises could be heard by Qin Zhi’ai because of the earplugs in her ears, she still heard Qin Yang’s voice loud and clear.
“I know.” Compared to Qin Yang, Gu Yusheng looked exceptionally calm. After he answered with these two simple words, he opened the box.
The moment when Gu Yusheng took the gun out of the box and raised it, he was like another person, completely different from the one Qin Zhi’ai saw on normal days. He became serious and sharp, like an unsheathed sword sending out a sense of cautiousness and style.
“Captain Gu, you have to know that you need to make every minute count. Accuracy is not the only requirement, but also a quick reaction.” The job was quite tough, for if the gun was fired, but the three criminals weren’t taken down, that equaled to killing the three innocent hostages by his hand. Therefore, Qin Yang couldn’t help but stress this.historical
