Chapter 88 The Sniper Outside the Window

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Fang Xingtong, who was standing pouring wine for Li Zhongwu, caught a glimpse of Li Zhongwu staring at herself with scrutiny. She was puzzled, so she asked out her doubts.

At this time, Li Zhongwu felt the sense of crisis hanging over him was even stronger.

He suddenly turned around and looked out the window again.

A long bullet suddenly smashed the window glass and shot straight at him.

As soon as his heart tightened, he subconsciously raised the chopsticks in his hand to catch the bullet, and he forcibly held back the right hand holding the chopsticks when he moved slightly.

Can't be so high-profile!

This thought flashed through his mind, and he leaned back slightly. Fang Xingtong smiled and said, "You are so beautiful..."

"Whoa..."

Before he finished speaking, the bullet, which was obviously longer than ordinary bullets, shot past his eyes, smashing a large vase more than one meter high in the corner.

Fang Xingtong was startled, and immediately looked over.

Seeing the big vase shatter into pieces with a clatter, her expression changed suddenly, and she subconsciously took a step back in shock, knocking down the chair behind her.

Li Zhongwu glanced at the wreckage of the big vase, and saw that Fang Xingtong, who was opposite him, hit the chair and was about to fall, so he immediately got up, walked around the head of the long table, dodged over, and put his arms around her waist.

Fang Xingtong, who almost fell, subconsciously hugged him.

At this time, a sense of crisis similar to the one before enveloped Li Zhongwu again.

Is it over?
Li Zhongwu squinted and looked out of the window again, and another extended bullet came.

This time it was unobstructed by the glass of the window, and it shot silently into the dining room, toward him.

Li Zhongwu, who didn't want to expose too much of his strength in front of Fang Xingtong, put his arms around her waist and hurriedly took two steps forward.

"boom……"

The bullet hit the wall of the restaurant, and the cement and brick chips splashed on the wall, and a small crater was shot out immediately.

Fang Xingtong's eyes became panicked, and he hugged Li Zhongwu tightly with his feet limp.

And the familiar sense of crisis once again enveloped Li Zhongwu.

No need to look, he knew that the gunman outside was aiming at him again.

He didn't hesitate any longer, and he didn't look out the window any more. He put his arms around Fang Xingtong's waist, and took another two steps forward. With a flash of his figure, he hid with her in the nearby kitchen.

"boom……"

The sound of bullets hitting the walls was heard again in the dining room.

in the kitchen.

Li Zhongwu held Fang Xingtong, whose legs were weak, with both hands, closed his eyes, and quietly sensed the crisis that might come again.

Fang Xingtong gasped heavily, his face turned pale with shock, not only his legs were weak, but also his palms were covered in cold sweat.

It was the first time she had encountered such a shooting in such a big age.

She had never encountered this kind of danger before, and she felt that her body, hands and feet were a little out of her control.

Panting heavily, she looked at Li Zhongwu with shocking eyes, and saw that his expression was still calm at this time, and he even closed his eyes.

Inexplicably, she felt a little peace of mind and a little admiration.

I couldn't help but think: He lived in the primeval forest since he was a child, did he often encounter danger?Like when hunting?So, he's used to danger?
Immediately, she felt the warmth of his arms around her waist again, and she felt the muscles in his arms so strong when she held his arms.

"What, what's the matter? Am I, are we safe?"

She didn't hear the sound of the bullet for a while, and couldn't help asking him softly.

Li Zhongwu opened his eyes and glanced at the window of the kitchen, guessing in his heart that the shooter outside should not be able to see them at the position where he just shot, so he said softly: "It should be safe for now, but, The murderer may not have left yet, do you have your mobile phone with you? I suggest you call your dad now and ask him to send someone to protect you, and search the neighborhood by the way. "

After all, he couldn't stay by her side to protect her all the time.

Although the three shots just now seemed to be aimed at Li Zhongwu.

But who can be sure that the gunman outside didn't just want to kill them both?
"Oh, good, good!"

Fang Xingtong quickly reached out to touch the phone. With this movement, both she and Li Zhongwu realized that they were still hugging each other. They both let go of each other subconsciously, and Li Zhongwu subconsciously took half a step back.

And apologized in a low voice, "Sorry, I just offended you."

"No, it's fine."

Fang Xingtong lowered his head blushingly, took out his mobile phone, called his father, and added: "By the way, thank you for saving me just now."

The next moment, she suddenly looked up at Li Zhongwu, and blurted out, "Can you dodge bullets? You, you just dodged bullets on your own initiative?"

She just realized the problem.

But how could Li Zhongwu admit it?

Li Zhongwu smiled slightly and shook his head, "You think too much, who can take the initiative to dodge bullets? Just now we were just lucky."

"Tongtong, what's the matter?"

At this time, her father Fang Jiangong's voice came from her mobile phone.

Fang Xingtong looked at Li Zhongwu suspiciously, and quickly replied to his father, "Dad, Dad! I was inviting friends to dinner at the Dingxiang Courtyard. Just now, someone, someone shot into the restaurant from outside, and fired three shots in a row. It's very dangerous, can you send someone over? The killer may still be waiting for us to show up, my friend and I are afraid to go out now, dad..."

Fang Jiangong's voice interrupted her: "I see, right over there in Lilac Courtyard? You and your friend hide and don't go out. I'll take someone over to protect you right away!"

After speaking, Fang Jiangong hung up the phone.

Fang Xingtong let out a long breath, put down his phone slowly, smiled at Li Zhongwu, and said, "Don't worry! My dad will bring people here in a while. He is in charge of the military affairs of Tianfu City. The city guards are all under his control, and there are many experts under him, so as long as he brings people here, we will be safe."

Li Zhongwu was a little surprised.

"Both the city inspector and the city guard are under your father's control? Then... what about the patrol room?"

Fang Xingtong was much more relaxed at this time, and the smile on his face became more natural. Hearing this, he raised his hand to tidy up his somewhat messy hair, and said with a smile: "The police department is in charge of criminal affairs. It is not a military matter. According to the rules of the court , the patrol room is directly under the orders of the city lord Zhengyin. You may have heard that there are three city lords in Tianfu City, one chief, two deputy, my father and another deputy city lord. One is in charge of military affairs and the other is in charge of political affairs. Evaluation and recommendation of officials."

Li Zhongwu nodded.

He has an intuitive understanding of the official structure of the Yan Dynasty.

At this moment, Fang Xingtong's bodyguard—Sister Yun suddenly rushed in from the kitchen door.

Holding guns in both hands, Sister Yun rushed into the kitchen with a tense expression. As soon as she rushed in, she glanced around. When she saw Li Zhongwu and Fang Xingtong hiding next to the freezer by the door, they seemed to be unharmed. I breathed a sigh of relief.

He hurried over and asked anxiously, "Miss, are you okay? Were you injured just now?"

Fang Xingtong smiled, shook his head and said, "No, Sister Yun, don't be nervous. Fortunately, Mr. Li responded quickly. He took me here to hide right away. We were not injured."

After finishing speaking, she looked Sister Yun up and down, frowned and asked, "By the way, Sister Yun, did you see someone shooting at us outside just now? Did you go to fight the murderer?"

Sister Yun shook her head and said with a self-blaming expression: "No, miss! I just heard the gunshot and wanted to come over to protect you immediately, but I happened to be going to the toilet just now. I rushed over as soon as I cleaned up. I didn't see you. Where is the shooter?"

Just in the bathroom?

Li Zhongwu subconsciously looked at Sister Yun up and down.

Fang Xingtong didn't suspect Sister Yun, and sighed: "That's good! If you rushed over immediately, the murderer might have shot you. The enemy is in the dark, and you are in a hurry to protect me. Maybe you were injured by the murderer's gun, and maybe your life is in danger, but now we are all fine, which is already a blessing among misfortunes, Sister Yun, you don't have to blame yourself."

She trusts this sister Yun very much?

Li Zhongwu looked at Fang Xingtong, and felt her trust in Sister Yun from what she said just now.

About four 10 minutes later.

Deputy city lord Fang Jiangong, wearing a rebound jacket and a helmet, led a group of heavily armed city guards and patrol horses to Lilac Courtyard.

Among them, the City Guards came in a black troop carrier.

The city patrol horses came riding on black motorcycles.

Through the kitchen window, Li Zhongwu saw the motorcycles of the city patrol horses outside the courtyard, and thought of the introduction he had recently read on the Internet about the city patrol horses.

The information on the Internet said: City Patrol Horses are responsible for the security of all parts of Dayan, because they usually travel on mechanical horses, so they are called City Patrol Horses.

And the mechanical horse...

In this day and age, that means motorcycles.

Regarding motorcycles, out of curiosity, he also searched for information on the Internet.

It was discovered that the motorcycle was excavated from an underground shelter more than a hundred years ago. At that time, no one in the archaeological community could recognize the name of this two-wheeled fuel vehicle, so it was named "mechanical horse".

Later, someone researched and speculated from the scattered materials in ancient times that the mechanical horse should be called a motorcycle in ancient times, but everyone called it a mechanical horse, and they were used to calling it, so they did not change it.

As soon as Fang Jiangong led the people to the gate of the courtyard, he ordered most of the people to check around the courtyard, and then he strode into the courtyard under the guard of a dozen people.

Go straight to the kitchen.

Seeing that his daughter Fang Xingtong was safe and sound, Fang Jiangong looked slightly relieved, obviously relieved.

Although he has many sons and daughters, Fang Xingtong is the most outstanding one among his many sons and daughters, so he is naturally worried about her safety.

Seeing that his daughter was fine, Fang Jiangong looked at Li Zhongwu who was beside his daughter.

He looked up and down at Li Zhongwu.

Li Zhongwu is also looking at Fang Jiangong.

Fang Jiangong, who is fully armed, has a dark complexion and a long face. He is about 1.8 meters tall by visual inspection. His eyes are piercing, his eyebrows are thick, and there are deep nasolabial folds on his face.

At first glance, he has a tough personality.

"Xingtong, you are not injured?"

Fang Jiangong walked into the kitchen with a sullen face and asked in a deep voice.

Fang Xingtong smiled, "No, Dad, we hid in time just now and were not injured, but we didn't see the murderer just now, so I'm not sure if the murderer will attack us in the future. Can you catch the murderer?"

Fang Jiangong snorted softly, "Bold as hell! If you dare to attack you, I want to see who is so bold!"

Before he finished speaking, he looked at Li Zhongwu again, "Xing Tong, this is the friend you invited today? What's your name? Why didn't I know you had such a friend?"

Fang Xingtong's cheeks flushed slightly, but he still introduced generously: "Dad, he is Mr. Li Zhongwu, a new friend I made recently. Fortunately, he responded in time and saved me today. Saw my dead body."

"Li Zhongwu?"

Fang Jiangong raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression seemed a little surprised.

Li Zhongwu also clasped his fists and saluted at this time, "I've seen City Lord Fang!"

Fang Jiangong looked Li Zhongwu up and down again, nodded and said: "So you are Li Zhongwu, I have heard of your name recently, I heard that your grasping hand is very special, and I also heard that Princess Seven summoned you, um, It really is a good-looking talent, no wonder the Seventh Princess looks at her differently. Just now Xingtong said that you saved her today, I thank you for her, and come to my house as a guest when you have time. My house is much safer than here, no one would dare to go there. .”

Li Zhongwu was a little surprised that Fang Jiangong's attitude towards him suddenly changed.

When Fang Jiangong looked at him for the first time just now, he clearly noticed Fang Jiangong's scrutiny and vigilance towards him.

But after hearing that he was Li Zhongwu, Fang Jiangong's attitude towards him obviously changed a lot.

"Thank you, City Lord Fang, for your kindness!"

Li Zhongwu clasped his fists in thanks.

Fang Jiangong smiled and waved his hands, "You don't have to be so polite, and remember to call me Deputy City Lord in the future, don't omit the word "Deputy"!"

"Yes!"

……

The people brought by Fang Jiangong searched around the yard for more than half an hour, but they didn't find a hair of the murderer.

It is only speculated that the murderer should have been hiding on a big locust tree outside the courtyard just now.

Moreover, based on the three bullets shot into the restaurant, it was concluded that the murderer used a sniper rifle.

For the time being, only so many clues have been collected.

Li Zhongwu saw that there were no more clues in the case for the time being, and it was getting late, so he said goodbye.

Fang Jiangong and Fang Xingtong didn't hold him back either, and after saying a few polite words, they sent him to the gate of the courtyard together, and asked a troop carrier to take him back by the way.

After Fang Jiangong stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched the troop carrier go away, the smile on his face faded a little bit, his eyes became colder a little bit, and he slowly turned to look at Sister Yun behind his daughter.

Asked coldly: "Xu Yun! Just now when you said the shooting, you happened to be in the toilet?"

Xu Yun's expression changed, she didn't dare to look at him, she quickly lowered her head and replied, "Yes, my lord!"

Fang Jiangong squinted at her for a long time before slowly saying: "Xu Yun, three generations of your Xu family have worked for our Fang family, and you grew up with Xingtong, so I trust you and let you Personally protect Xingtong, I hope you will not disappoint my trust in you!"

After Xu Yun finished listening, she was silent for two seconds, then suddenly knelt down on one knee, lowered her head and said, "My lord, Xu Yun failed to protect Miss today, and she is willing to suffer any punishment!"

"dad?"

Fang Xingtong couldn't help but open his mouth, wanting to ask for love.

Fang Jiangong raised his left hand slightly to stop Fang Xingtong from pleading, but he still stared coldly at Xu Yun who was kneeling in front of him, and said in a cold voice: "People who eat whole grains naturally have three urgencies, if you really happen to go to the toilet today, Then I will definitely not punish you, but you are suspected today, I didn’t say anything about you in front of outsiders just now, now that outsiders are away, I hope you cooperate with the investigation, and I also hope that you can clear your suspicions!”

Xu Yun lowered her head even lower, "Yes! Thank you sir, Xu Yun will definitely cooperate with the investigation!"

Fang Jiangong: "That would be the best."

After finishing speaking, he withdrew his gaze and strode towards his car outside the courtyard gate.

 Thank you for the reward of love this book, ask for a monthly ticket
