The kidnapper bellowed and complained about how unfair life was. “You don’t have to do anything and can live a carefree life. But what about us? We just want to live on. We didn’t do anything wrong!”
“First of all, I want to clarify something. Although I’ve been raised by wealthy people for 18 years, they didn’t give me a huge amount of wealth. They only gave me a 20 million yuan IOU. What does 20 million yuan mean to you? It is an amount of money that you can’t get even if you were to rob a bank. At the age of 18, I’m already carrying a 20 million yuan debt.”
Huo Tian dodged an attack and swung her baton at the kidnapper’s ribs.
She continued unhurriedly, “Secondly, you guys don’t just want to live. You guys want to use the easiest method to become rich like my adoptive parents. Do you think you’re being forced into a corner? No, no, no, you guys are just lazy to live an honest life. You guys just want to take a shortcut, but you didn’t expect that the end of the shortcut is a dead end.”
Huo Tian flashed behind the kidnapper and hit him hard on the back. The kidnapper stumbled a few steps, turned around, but pounced on Huo Tian even more ferociously.
“Since it’s a dead-end in front of me, I must drag a few people down with me. If you don’t want to let me live, then you can die first!”
The kidnapper thought that he was incomparably ferocious at that moment, but the attack in which he gave it his all was easily neutralized by Huo Tian.
Huo Tian agilely attacked the kidnapper’s wrist and the machete in his hand fell to the ground involuntarily. The next second, the kidnapper felt an electric current spread from his chest to his entire body. He trembled and collapsed to the ground.
Huo Tian kicked away the machete on the ground and gathered all the weapons the kidnappers had dropped together, preparing to throw them outside the tailor shop.
While Huo Tian and the kidnappers were engaged in a fight, several police cars had stopped outside the tailor shop. Armed police officers in bulletproof vests and holding guns carefully approached the tailor shop.
When they heard the door of the tailor shop creak, the armed police officers subconsciously raised their guns and aimed at the door. At the same time, they shouted, “Police! Don’t move!”
They thought that they were about to face a group of vicious, murderous, and unscrupulous criminals, but the person who appeared in front of them was a skinny and weak-looking young girl who looked overly pale.
Both sides looked at each other. In the end, it was Huo Tian who spoke up first, “Hello, policemen uncles. My name is Huo Tian. The one who was kidnapped was my mother. My mother is out of danger now and I’ve also subdued those kidnappers.”
The armed police officers were all puzzled. Then, several machetes were handed to them. The police officers subconsciously took a step back, not daring to let their guard down.
Huo Tian threw the machetes onto the ground and said, “These are the weapons I’ve confiscated. Those kidnappers are unable to move now. After you guys enter, you can take them away directly.”
A few armed police officers carefully entered the tailor shop and saw the kidnappers lying on the ground. They knew very well what the kidnappers had gone through. They had clearly been electrocuted and had temporarily lost their mobility.
The police officers handcuffed the criminals effortlessly and went to push open the back door of the tailor shop, only to find that it couldn’t be opened at all.
They looked at Huo Tian, who walked to the door with a calm expression. She knocked on the door and shouted, “Mom, it’s me. I’m with the police now. Those bad people have been subdued.”
“Tiantian?” A cry rang out in the courtyard. Upon hearing her daughter’s voice and confirming that she was safe, Ding Rong finally couldn’t help but break down in tears.
She had been maintaining her strong and calm side previously, but now, she started crying without any qualms. As she cried, she staggered and made her way towards the door. “Tiantian, how can you be so foolish?”
Ding Rong wanted to pull open the door, but she was unable to go against the power of the three metal limbs.
“Tiantian, the door can’t be opened. What should we do?”
Huo Tian quickly consoled her, “Mom, don’t be anxious. Calm down. As long as you switch off the robotic arm like usual, it’ll be fine.”
Under her daughter’s calm coaxing, Ding Rong seemed to have finally found her support. She switched off the robotic arm’s switch and the door immediately opened.
The mother and daughter pair sized each other up. Seeing that Huo Tian was unscathed without even a slight wound on her body, Ding Rong’s tears fell again.
“Tiantian, I’m so glad you’re okay.”
Huo Tian looked at the disheveled Ding Rong, her gaze landing on the wound on her forehead. “Mom, I came late. You’ve suffered so many injuries.”
The two of them were already hugging each other. Huo Tian’s heart ached so much that when she was wiping Ding Rong’s tears, she carefully avoided her wound.
However, Ding Rong did not care at all. She just kept stroking Huo Tian’s cheeks. “As long as you’re fine, Mom will be fine.”
