Captain Lu was aloof again today.

Chapter 170 Accident
Lu Jingming and Wei Qingsong left the hotel with Coke.

The car was parked not far away. Wei Qingsong helped Kele into the car and, seeing that she was still restless, gently comforted her from the side.

Cola curled up in the back seat of the car, hugging her body tightly with her arms, a state of extreme vigilance and self-protection.

Her body trembled uncontrollably, but gradually calmed down under Wei Qingsong's comforting words.

She looked up, staring blankly at Wei Qingsong, tears welling in her eyes, and asked, "Pretty sister, are you a police officer?"

"Yes." Wei Qingsong hesitated for a moment, then nodded, staring directly at her. "So, are you still coming with us?"

She thought for a moment and added, "Don't worry, whether you want to cooperate with our work or not, we will protect you and won't let you get hurt."

Cola lowered her head, bit her lip, then raised her head and solemnly made her choice: "I'll do whatever you say."

Outside the car, Lu Jingming dialed Chen Jin's number, briefly explained the situation, and asked him to bring reinforcements immediately.

Things have changed, and now the most important thing is to rescue Susan and Xiaoya, who may be in danger.

Chen Jin was always efficient. After hanging up the phone, he immediately reported the matter to Director Wang, and soon assembled two teams of special police officers.

Several police cars, sirens blaring, sped toward the Liyang Hotel.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected.

Xihai Road is the shortest route from the Municipal Bureau to Liyang Hotel. The police car checked the road conditions before setting off, and the road conditions showed that it was clear and unobstructed, so they naturally chose this route.

Halfway through the journey, a major traffic accident suddenly occurred on Xihai Road.
Seeing the shocking traffic jam ahead, Chen Jin was extremely anxious and immediately called Lu Jingming to explain the situation: "Team Leader Lu, there has been a sudden traffic accident on Xihai Road, the road is paralyzed, and our people are stuck on the road."

The police car was like the filling in a sandwich, stuck in the middle, unable to move forward or backward.

"Hmm." Lu Jingming's voice was unusually calm. "How quickly can you get there?"

"It's hard to say, but I'd estimate it would take at least half an hour," Chen Jin said after a moment's hesitation.

Lu Jingming was silent for a moment, then said, "Understood. Try to get there as soon as possible."

Hearing his usual cold voice, Chen Jin felt a bad premonition rise in his heart, and his voice trembled: "Captain Lu, what are you going to do? Don't be impulsive! Since the other side is already on guard, they will definitely deploy manpower!"

At this critical juncture, acting alone is tantamount to walking into a trap.

However, he did not receive a response from Lu Jingming; the phone was disconnected with a beep.

Chen Jin was so anxious that sweat beaded on his forehead. He quickly dialed again, but the line was always busy and no one answered.

"Damn it!" Chen Jin angrily slammed his fist on the steering wheel.

Now he can only pray that Lu Jingming can remain calm and try to arrive at the scene within half an hour.

He knew Lu Jingming's temperament very well. Given Lu Jingming's strong sense of justice and hatred for evil, there was no way he would turn a blind eye to the safety of those two girls.

Moreover, Lu Jingming has never been afraid to fight criminals alone, after all, he is a person who has received merits.

In that major case, Lu Jingming was seriously injured, which is why he received such a merit. It was only because Lu Jingming was lucky that the criminals did not injure his vital organs; otherwise, the price of this merit would have been his life.

But fate doesn't always favor the same person. Last time, Lu Jingming was lucky, but this time, who can say for sure?
Those who work in this line of work are all constantly risking their lives.

If it weren't for catching criminals and restoring harmony and peace to society, who wouldn't want to stay in a warm and comfortable area and enjoy life?

Behind the harmony and tranquility lies the sacrifice of blood and even lives.

Many police officers suffer from chronic illnesses due to long-term overwork.

They are ordinary people too, but because of the word "people" in front of the police, they went against the tide as their loved ones watched them go with tears in their eyes.

Therefore, those who commit evil should never be easily forgiven!

Chen Jin gritted his teeth, his eyes gradually reddening.

No matter what family they're backed by, if anything really happens to Lu Jingming, he will never let them off the hook!
On the other side, Cola's tense emotions gradually calmed down, and she returned to a relaxed state.

Wei Qingsong gently patted her head and turned to look out the car window.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Jingming seemed somewhat solemn.

Wei Qingsong frowned slightly and gently told Kele to stay in the car and not to wander off.

She came up behind Lu Jingming: "Where are Chen Jin and the others?"

Lu Jingming snapped out of his daze and said succinctly, "There was a traffic accident on the way, and I can't get here right now."

Wei Qingsong was slightly taken aback. With such an operation and the other side holding hostages, conflict was inevitable. Special police had to be present to control the situation in time and prevent casualties.

The special police can't get here in time; this is an unexpected factor they didn't anticipate.

However, if this continues, the situation for Susan and Xiaoya may not be optimistic.

Judging from Cola's frightened and helpless expression just now, it's clear that those people on the "sixth floor" of the Liyang Hotel are definitely not good people.

According to Cola, they all had weapons such as sticks.
This is not the time for individual heroism to run rampant. If we rush in rashly, we may find ourselves in an even more passive situation.

Wei Qingsong took a deep breath, grabbed Lu Jingming's wrist, and gently shook her head.

She couldn't bring herself to say "Don't go," and could only gaze at him silently.

She understood better than anyone else what kind of faith Lu Jingming held.

Lu Jingming patted her hand, his eyes gentle but his tone firm: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Wei Qingsong stared at him for a moment, then took a deep breath and slowly released his hand.

"Then I'll be with you."

“No.” Lu Jingming frowned and refused without thinking. He couldn’t let her take the risk.

Wei Qingsong looked directly at him, her eyes filled with stubbornness and obstinacy: "I won't be a burden to you. I studied self-defense abroad. If we go together, at least we can look out for each other."

“We have no idea how many people or how many weapons the enemy has. Two people are always stronger than one. At least we can fight back to back. If you go alone, there will always be a time when you expose your back to the enemy. Not only will you not be able to save people, but you will also get yourself killed. Have you thought about the consequences?”

Lu Jingming fell silent.

Wei Qingsong's words made sense, but he didn't want to involve her in such a dangerous situation.

"Don't hesitate." Wei Qingsong reached out and grasped his arm. "Saving lives is the priority."

Lu Jingming sighed softly: "So, no matter what I say, you insist on going, right?"

He knew that she was never a parasitic plant that could be manipulated by others. Since she had made her decision, there was no point in saying anything else.

This persistence might also be a form of obsession.
