"So, before Mr. Sheng arrives, let’s follow the police’s instructions," she said proactively to the patrolling officer. "I’ll do as you say."
"Little Shushu is right, we’ll do as you say!" Sun Nanjue pulled Ye Shu behind him and said to the captain, "What was it you said just now?"
Captain: "Just cooperate with us, with my brothers’ work."
Sun Nanjue: "No, the sentence before that."
Captain: "We ask for Lady Ye Shu to come back with us."
Sun Nanjue: "The sentence before that!"
Captain: "If possible..."
Sun Nanjue: "Haha, not possible!" Laughing, Sun Nanjue grabbed Ye Shu’s hand to walk her out.
The patrolling officer was flabbergasted, scratching his head before realizing he had been tricked by Sun Nanjue.
The crowd, noticing that Sun Nanjue was not someone to be trifled with, began to loosen the tight wall they had formed.
Ye Xinyu stood up in panic and said, "Director Sun, this time, I advise you not to stick your nose into this. If you continue to help Ye Shu, you will definitely regret it."
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "He’s just a movie director, why fear him? If we don’t catch the culprit today, all of us here are cowards!"
"That’s right, don’t be afraid, everybody. We must not bow down to the forces of evil!" The crowd, which had started to disperse, once again closed in tightly.
Realizing the situation, Sun Nanjue hurriedly called Sheng Shaochen, "Ah Chen, if you don’t come soon, your Little Shushu will be torn to shreds."
On an imposing SUV, Sheng Shaochen’s expression darkened, "If she is missing a single hair, you’ll have to answer to me!"
"What the... Bro, I haven’t practiced any martial arts in years, and I don’t know any martial arts secrets like the Nine Yang Divine Skill or the Kuihua Manual. If you don’t come quickly, I’m afraid I can’t hold on."
"Five minutes!" Sheng Shaochen said, flooring the accelerator!
Meanwhile, the watching crowd had reached their limit of patience, clamoring to catch the person, or else they would start a brawl!
Ye Xinyu knelt beside her father’s body, continuously shaking Ye Shengli’s body and crying out phrases like "Daddy, don’t leave me alone," while tears poured down her face, looking pitiful indeed.
And the crowd was now closing in step by step on Ye Shu and Sun Nanjue...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Suddenly, three loud bangs resounded through the crowd. People, unaware of what was happening, thought they were under terrorist attack and panicked into chaos.
Sun Nanjue, with a look of disbelief, said, "No way, five minutes went by this quickly? What kind of trick is this?"
Before his words were finished, several bizarrely shaped cars had already charged into Diamond Square. Ironically, the music blasting from the cars’ speakers was instrumental electronic music, without any lyrics!
And what’s more interesting, the people coming out of the cars were all in special makeup, with colorful attire that added a fantastical hue to the scene.
Most people were confused, not understanding what was going on, why a bunch of odd characters had suddenly appeared, playing this peculiar background music!
But Ye Shu understood at a glance...
"It’s an ’Elf Light’ cosplay!" A teenage boy suddenly screamed with excitement and ran straight towards one of the men who got out of the car, dressed in a golden cape, with flowing white hair—the Immortal Man.
"Stand in my way, and you shall be shown no mercy! Little Village Flower, where are you? Let’s meet in Wuyou Valley!" The Immortal Man, with a hoarse voice, swung his prop sword. Each swing sent a large firecracker flying out from a hole in the sword, followed by a loud bang!
Although it caused no harm to people, the noise combined with the flash of golden light and ensuing smoke did indeed throw everyone into bewildering chaos.
By the time they realized it was just a game enthusiasts were playing with flash moves, they suddenly discovered that Ye Shu was nowhere to be seen in the square...
