Chapter 74 An Min was taken hostage
Anmin's heart sank suddenly, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

The resentment in Chen Mo's eyes was almost tangible; he wanted to slowly torture her to death, slice by slice.

"It's a miracle that I met you on this rickety train!"

Chen Mo's voice was hoarse, filled with deep-seated hatred.

He pushed the knife forward, the cold blade almost touching Anmin's neck.

The dark red bloodstains on it emitted a rusty, fishy smell, making her stomach churn.

"Anmin, do you think we're destined for each other?"

Chen Mo closed the berth door, pressed his entire body against it, and pointed the knife at An Min.

Anmin forced herself to calm down. The immense fear did not shut her down; instead, she began to think.

She couldn't provoke the madman, but she also couldn't just sit and wait to die.

An Min didn't even know how Chen Mo escaped from prison; wasn't he sentenced to several years?
She turned her head slightly to avoid the cold blade, trying to keep her voice steady.

"Chen Mo, you escaped? Why did you get yourself into this state?"

"Escape from prison comes at a price."

As soon as An Min finished speaking, she saw a slow glint of hatred appear in Chen Mo's eyes.

"Stop pretending with that damn face!"

Chen Mo growled and roughly pulled An Min up, the tip of the knife pressed firmly against her side.

"It's all your fault! You've ruined everything for me! I swore in there that the first person I'd kill when I got out was you! Get out of the car! Now!"

He shoved her roughly, his eyes scanning the connecting area between the carriages warily, clearly knowing that Liang Yi might return at any moment.

If it weren't for An Min, he would never have gone from a noble agricultural technician to a criminal.

Having been locked up inside for so long, Chen Mo constantly longed to get out and kill An Min.

Fortunately, he still had some connections. He was dissatisfied and appealed, and his case was accepted.

This gave him the opportunity to be released on bail, and then when he pretended to be sick and went to the hospital, he ran away from the hospital.

I bet there are posters everywhere looking for him right now...

I don't care anymore. Even if I die, I'll take someone down with me. Anmin won't have a good life!
Anmin stumbled from his push, but her mind raced as she analyzed the situation.

His legs seemed a bit unsteady; when he pulled her just now, his left leg visibly jerked in pain.

He reeked of a mixture of sweat and blood, and was in extremely poor condition, like a frightened bird.

Choosing to act before the train stops at a major station was an attempt to take advantage of the chaos, force her off the train, and escape!

"Okay, I'll go with you, just don't hurt me."

Anmin obediently replied, her voice trembling just the right amount, feigning weakness to lull the other party into a false sense of security.

Chen Mo used his coat to half-cover her knife-wielding hand and practically dragged her out of the sleeper compartment toward the connecting area between the carriages.

In the crowded passageway, some people cast surprised glances, but Chen Mo's fierce glare and the faintly visible weapon in his hand made passersby avoid him in fear.

Just as they were about to reach the junction, the train screeched to a halt, and the immense inertia caused everyone to lurch forward.

Chen Mo's already injured leg lost its balance, and his body suddenly tilted to one side, causing the knife he was holding against An Min to miss its vital point.

good chance!
A glint flashed in An Min's eyes. She didn't scream, nor did she struggle blindly.

With all her might, she seized the moment when Chen Mo was unsteady and slammed her elbow hard against the back of his injured left knee!

"Ugh!"

Caught off guard, Chen Mo groaned in pain, and the grip on An Min loosened instantly.

Anmin, like a slippery fish, suddenly lunged forward, shouting with all her might.

"Help! There's a knife! He's the fugitive Chen Mo!"

Her target wasn't the surrounding passengers, but the train attendant who had just appeared at the junction of the carriages.

An Min's voice was sharp and clear, hitting the nail on the head. "You filthy bitch!"

Chen Mo was both shocked and furious. Despite the excruciating pain in his leg, he tried to pounce on her and grab her.

Just then, the train came to a complete stop with a clatter.

The platform was instantly filled with a cacophony of voices.

Almost simultaneously, Liang Yi's furious roar came from the other end of the carriage: "An Min!!!"

He had just returned with his lunchbox when, through the throng of people, he caught a glimpse of the cold light flashing in An Min's hand and Chen Mo's hand as they were being pushed and shoved.

In that instant, Liang Yi felt as if his heart had been gripped by an icy hand, and his blood had frozen.

"Stop him! Grab the man with the knife!"

Liang Yi's voice was like a thunderclap, carrying an unquestionable command and boundless rage.

Ignoring the crowded throng, he charged towards Anmin like an enraged lion, forcefully pushing aside those blocking his path.

As he rushed forward, he spoke to the train conductor who was following behind him and had clearly come to talk to him.

"Quickly! Notify the platform police! Seal off the exits! Target: Chen Mo, he's taken hostage! He has a knife! Immediately!"

The train conductor turned pale, but reacted quickly, immediately grabbing the walkie-talkie at his waist and shouting.

On the platform, a sharp whistle and hurried footsteps rang out instantly.

Liang Yi's roar and the clear instructions conveyed by the train conductor behind him were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, triggering a chain reaction.

Several uniformed station staff and railway police who rushed to the scene immediately became alert and quickly surrounded the entrance of the carriage.

Chen Mo had just grabbed An Min's arm, intending to pull her up again to use as a shield, when he was stunned by the scene before him.

On the platform, at least five or six people were running toward him, and there were many more people mobilizing in the distance.

Inside the carriage, Liang Yi charged through the crowd like a madman, the murderous intent in his eyes sending a chill down the spine of even this desperate criminal.

"Oh shit!"

Chen Mo panicked completely.

He didn't expect Liang Yi to react so quickly!
He had thought he could take advantage of the chaos to get off the train and blend into the crowd, but now the platform was being watched closely, and Liang Yi was blocking the other end of the carriage, making him a sitting duck!
A desperate madness flashed in his eyes, and he shoved Anmin violently toward the platform.

Chen Mo wanted to use her to create chaos and block the pursuers, while he turned around and tried to run towards the other side of the car door in the opposite direction.

"Anmin!"

Liang Yi's eyes widened in horror, and his heart nearly leaped out of his throat.

Anmin, who was being pushed out, was about to fall heavily onto the cold concrete floor of the platform.

In a flash, she used the force of Chen Mo's push to roll forward.

Although his shoulders and knees were sore from the impact, the roll effectively absorbed most of the force, preventing serious injuries from a head-and-face collision.

More importantly, she was no longer under Chen Mo's direct control.

Despite the pain, An Min quickly sat up and shouted towards the nearest railway police officer who was rushing towards her.

"He's over there! He's running in the other direction! He has a knife!"

Her identification was clear and accurate, pointing the way for the manhunt.

At this moment, Liang Yi finally rushed to the entrance of the connection point.

Liang Yi flashed past her like lightning, heading straight for the fleeing figure.

"Chen Mo! You're asking for it!"

Liang Yi's voice was full of anger, filled with a destructive rage.

He caught up with Chen Mo, who had difficulty walking, in a few steps, and kicked him hard in the lower back.
