Chapter 494 - 494 Turning Over a New Leaf
494 Turning Over a New Leaf
Everyone took a closer look. This person was wearing smart-looking camouflage clothes. He was tall and straight. He held a silencer in his hand and looked down at them.
To be able to move his hiding place so quickly, this person’s agility impressed Nighthawk.
Despite the colorful paint on his devilishly handsome face, Nighthawk recognized him.
“Huo Xiaoran, I really didn’t expect you to be the biggest dark horse in the police force.”
Huo Xiaoran pointed his gun at Ninth Master and Xiao Ming.
Ninth Master looked at Huo Xiaoran with an abnormally bright gaze. There was the relief of an old father, the guilt for the child, and the helplessness of the current situation.
“Xiaoran, don’t block the way here. Do you think you can snipe so many of us? You’re simply dreaming,” Ninth Master berated Huo Xiaoran, but his gaze was fixed behind him.
Huo Xiaoran could tell what he was implying and looked warily at Ninth Master. As expected, a few people ran out of the helicopter and shot at Huo Xiaoran.
Huo Xiaoran jumped and flipped to the flat dam. Then, he aimed his gun at the helicopter and fired.
At this moment, many black shadows surged over from the forest.
Nighthawk continued moving. Xiao Ming’s handcuffs were slowly slipping. Ninth Master’s heart was in his throat.
His mind was working quickly. The dozen or so subordinates around Nighthawk were skilled in martial arts. It was difficult for Xiao Ming to fight them alone. Should he continue to protect his undercover identity or go all out to protect his son?
Just as he was hesitating, Xiao Ming suddenly grabbed behind him and knocked the two subordinates beside Nighthawk down the mountain with a huge force.
With the advantage of the terrain, he was on the high ground and the others were on the low ground.
Ninth Master supported Nighthawk from the wheelchair and ran quickly. “Brother, get into the helicopter first.”
Nighthawk ordered the others, “Kill him.”
Ninth Master helped the Nighthawk to the flat dam at the top of the mountain. The parked helicopter had been destroyed by Xiao Ran but the other helicopters were still circling.
There was no cover on the flat dam. Xiaoran grabbed the corpse of a bandit in front of him and used it as a shield with one hand. He changed to a light revolver with the other and fired at Nighthawk.
Nighthawk suddenly took out a pistol and aimed it at Ninth Master’s temple. He threatened Huo Xiaoran, “Huo Xiaoran, put down the gun. If you don’t, I’ll kill your father.”
Huo Xiaoran shot over one shot after another, but he deliberately missed because he didn’t want to hurt Ninth Master. However, he said stubbornly, “Hmph, he deserves to die. If you kill him, I’ll thank you on behalf of the innocent people who died tragically at his hands.”
“Xiaoran…” Ninth Master took it seriously.
His eyes were red.
“Xiaoran, I know you hate me. I’ve let you and your mother down. I don’t blame you for killing me. Shoot me. I don’t want to die at Big Brother’s hands.”
Huo Xiaoran felt a lump in his throat, but he did not dare to show his sadness.
“You do deserve to die.”
At this moment, dense bullets fired from the helicopter disrupted Xiao Ran’s plan. He began to dodge everywhere.
The helicopter slowly landed as it attacked Xiao Ran.
Ninth Master looked around. At this moment, he really hoped that someone would support the isolated and helpless Huo Xiaoran. However, there were no gunshots in the forest. He scanned for a long time, but in the end, his heart turned cold.
Those should be the sounds of the drug cartel’s people fighting his undercover men. There were few of his people. They couldn’t hold on at all, and the gunshots that belonged to them were withering.
When the helicopter landed, Ninth Master carried Nighthawk into the helicopter.
He saw the brothers in the helicopter attacking Xiao Ran in unison. Xiao Ran could not hold on alone in an unobstructed venue. His legs and hands were injured.
Ninth Master made up his mind and suddenly leaned back. He grabbed his brother behind him and threw him out of the plane.
When the helicopter flew up, Xiao Ran suddenly ran over at high speed. He grabbed the fuselage and left the ground with the plane.
Nighthawk had already sensed Ninth Master’s rebellious heart. He scolded Ninth Master ferociously, “You dare to throw my brother out? Ninth Master, you’ve betrayed us, right?”
Ninth Master said, “Brother, I’m absolutely loyal to you. But he’s my son. I can’t ignore him. I’m sorry.”
Nighthawk raised his pistol and fired at him.
Ninth Master grabbed a brother behind him to take the bullet for him.
Ninth Master roared, “Brother, save your bullets. Xiaoran is coming up. If he comes in, we’ll both be finished.”
“You still know that he’s a police officer? You actually saved him?”
“Brother, he’s my son. I can’t watch him die. I beg you, spare his life.”
“Who cares if he spares my life?” Huo Xiaoran had already grabbed the fuselage.
Ninth Master looked out. At this moment, the plane was already flying high in the sky. The White Horse Temple was no longer below them.
Nighthawk was furious. “Ninth Brother, now is the time for you to show your loyalty. Either kill Huo Xiaoran and we land safely, or you and Huo Xiaoran can kill me together and the pilot will crash with you.”
Huo Xiaoran entered the cramped cabin and was immediately grabbed by the throat with a knife. “Boss, kill him.”
Ninth Master suddenly took out a knife from his shoe and pressed it against Nighthawk’s throat.
“Brother, I’m sorry. I can’t abandon my son.”
The situation was tense.
“Ninth Brother, you’re actually Falcon, right?” Nighthawk came back to his senses.
Ninth Master said nothing.
Silence meant tacit agreement.
Nighthawk sneered. “I should have suspected you long ago. Unfortunately, I believed you every time you saved me.”
“If it weren’t for Huo Xiaoran, you might not have been exposed for the rest of your life. Your anti-reconnaissance methods are too strong.”
“Brother, you flatter me.”
“But no matter how powerful you and your son are, what’s the use? You came to the White Horse Temple to arrest me, but I didn’t do anything illegal. Even if you have the ability to capture me and bring me back, what can you do? Moreover, you’re outnumbered today. You won’t be able to return.”
Huo Xiaoran sneered. “Aren’t you curious why we’re outnumbered?”
Nighthawk suddenly came to a realization. Other than Huo Xiaoran and Xiao Ming, he did not see any other police officers today.
“Huo Xiaoran, where did the SWAT team go?” he asked in fear.
“All the police officers have gone to the Cofco Pier,” Huo Xiaoran said. “All your goods will be detained in China.”
“Boss Guo will also be arrested.”
Nighthawk’s plan to lure the tiger away was completely declared a failure. He was depressed. “Who revealed the plans?”
“It was Rosa,” Huo Xiaoran said calmly.
“How could it be her? She’s the most loyal to me!” Nighthawk was incredulous.
Huo Xiaoran said, “But before she died, she turned over a new leaf and walked the same bright path as her father and sister.”
