Chapter 844: Chapter 0844: Another Great Achievment

Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue chased for quite a distance. Looking ahead, they saw no sign of anyone, but Ye Qiu felt the fugitives were lurking nearby.

The surrounding vegetation was taller than a person’s head, making movement extremely difficult.

"They might be close by,"

Ye Qiu whispered.

Right now, the fugitives stayed still, and Ye Qiu didn’t move either.

After all, those guys were armed with automatic rifles. Charging in recklessly would only earn oneself a burst of gunfire, turning them into a sieve!

Not being able to see them at the moment, Ye Qiu couldn’t deploy the virus which would make them suffer. So, all he could do was wait.

"What do we do?"

Zhao Ruxue whispered, panting.

"Wait for the prey to come to us!"

Ye Qiu knew the ones truly filled with fear were the fugitives. As long as the police managed to seal off the mountain and they couldn’t escape in time, they’d still be caught.

The fugitives had to be desperate. They could only try to flee Qixia Mountain as fast as possible. Once outside, they might stand a chance of survival.

Some time passed when Ye Qiu suddenly noticed movement in a spot ahead—it darted like a rabbit, but Ye Qiu knew it was definitely one of the fugitives.

When Zhao Ruxue was about to fire, Ye Qiu signaled her to hold off and watch for a moment.

Ye Qiu had already fired three shots earlier with his 92-style pistol, leaving only three bullets. Despite this, both he and Zhao Ruxue were armed with an AK47 and two Russian-made automatic rifles.

Unless absolutely necessary, Ye Qiu refrained from firing. A direct shot would almost certainly result in killing the target.

Of course, as long as the target clung to life, Ye Qiu would have ways to save them.

When the fugitive in that direction started moving, the other four fugitives had yet to reveal their hiding spots.

"Get down for now."

Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue crouched, then Ye Qiu fired a single shot into the air.

Suddenly, the other four fugitives around them could no longer remain hidden and began firing at Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue.

"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat!"

Bullets flew toward Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue, forcing them to dodge and retreat while the five fugitives pursued them.

As they closed in within ten meters, Ye Qiu unleashed the virus designed to inflict excruciating pain on their bodies.

Within two minutes, the five fugitives collapsed, just like the previous three. First, they experienced acute heart pain, almost killing them, then their entire bodies grew weak and limp.

As they crouched down clutching their chests in agony, Ye Qiu stood up and walked to one fugitive, wielding the AK47. He swung it brutally at the man’s head.

Ye Qiu already possessed great physical strength. Using the AK47 as leverage, the blow to the man’s head caused heavy bleeding, and he collapsed instantly.

The remaining four fugitives were utterly powerless against Ye Qiu, all ending up knocked to the ground in the same manner.

From a few meters away, Zhao Ruxue couldn’t comprehend how Ye Qiu managed to pull it off.

Yet Ye Qiu had subdued all five ruthless fugitives!

After stripping the fugitives of their clothing and tearing the fabric into strips, he tied their limbs securely and knocked them unconscious.

"Now call the police and have them come take these guys away!"

Ye Qiu said.

Zhao Ruxue hadn’t imagined that Ye Qiu alone, especially without weapons at first, could single-handedly capture all eight fugitives.

However, the signal was poor in the area, and Zhao Ruxue had to go outside to make the call. Meanwhile, police officers and armed forces had already begun closing in outside Qixia Mountain.

After Zhao Ruxue provided a rough location, the response units rushed in immediately.

But nobody could believe how Zhao Ruxue had managed to deal with eight ruthless fugitives by herself.

Especially given the earlier firefight at the crossroads, which had resulted in significant casualties among the armed forces.

When Deputy Bureau Chief Zhu arrived with his team and first saw Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue, along with the three bound fugitives, he was visibly astonished.

"Ruxue, you’re incredible! How did you manage this?"

He couldn’t quite believe that Zhao Ruxue, alone, had captured these fugitives.

Zhao Ruxue knew perfectly well that without Ye Qiu, she wouldn’t have caught a single fugitive and might have even gotten injured herself.

"Just lucky, I guess!"

Zhao Ruxue replied.

"The other five fugitives are still inside."

The three unconscious fugitives were immediately handcuffed and closely guarded by the arriving police and armed forces before being taken out.

As for the other five fugitives, they were also escorted out and handcuffed.

Zhao Ruxue capturing eight fugitives single-handedly was a feat Deputy Bureau Chief Zhu found hard to believe. It was a sure sign Zhao Ruxue was earning herself another major achievement.

But what puzzled him even more was the ordinary young man standing beside her—Ye Qiu.

"Deputy Bureau Chief Zhu, have the other fugitives been caught yet?"

"Deputy Bureau Chief Deng has sent his team after them. They shouldn’t be able to get away."

By the time they reached the perimeter of Qixia Mountain, Ye Qiu’s plain outfit and Zhao Ruxue’s attire were both visibly torn from the vegetation.

Zhao Ruxue’s hands and legs, in particular, were covered with countless scratches.

But to Zhao Ruxue, it was all worth it.

"Ruxue, you need to come back to the City Police Bureau with me. We need a full account of how you managed to capture the fugitives."

"Understood, Deputy Bureau Chief Zhu."

Zhao Ruxue said.

Still, Zhao Ruxue climbed into Ye Qiu’s car. After the police convoy left, Ye Qiu followed behind them.

"Ye Qiu, I really have to thank you this time."

Zhao Ruxue wasn’t just grateful because Ye Qiu had helped her score another major accomplishment. It was because if these fugitives hadn’t been caught quickly, the public could have become terrified.

"It’s a shame. I had hoped to catch them all in one strike. But they scattered and fled, so instead of securing a special commendation for you, the most you might get now is a first-class merit. Plus, did you see Deputy Bureau Chief Zhu earlier? He’s definitely planning to claim part of your credit."

"Honestly, achievements and promotions don’t mean that much to me,"

Zhao Ruxue replied.

If it came down to that, Zhao Ruxue knew her family connections alone would ensure she wouldn’t have to exert herself so much.

Ye Qiu chuckled but said nothing further.

After driving to the entrance of the City Police Bureau, Zhao Ruxue stepped out of Ye Qiu’s car. Ye Qiu didn’t need to stick around any longer. As for the fugitives in the other vehicle, if all those police officers couldn’t hold them, it would be truly absurd.

So Ye Qiu didn’t bother to concern himself with it.

He only wanted to go back to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, take a nice shower, and change into fresh clothes.

The chase at Qixia Mountain had left him drenched in sweat.
