Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Terrifying Moment at the School Gate (1) Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Terrifying Moment at the School Gate (1) At this very moment, Alina was seated in a car, heading towards Linjing Middle School.
In her hand, she tightly clutched a black object resembling an iron box, which had been given to her by Gu Cheng.
It was said to be made of refined steel.
Inside were one hundred specially made steel needles.
The Torrential Pear Blossom Needles from martial arts novels were not baseless.
For the Gu family, possessing five hundred years of tradition in crafting mechanisms, it was quite ordinary for a craftsman to make such hidden weapons.
The lethal range was within one hundred meters.
It was named Stinger Needles.
There was a switch, similar to the trigger of a shotgun.
But it required the user to have superb shooting skills.
Otherwise, it was utterly useless.
However, for Alina, it was like adding wings to a tiger.
She gripped the Stinger Needles in her hand, her heart tumultuous.
She had been dragged into a dirty scheme by that bitch Lin Qinghuan, and leaving was not so simple. Even if it meant tearing off masks, she didn’t have the courage to face Xino’s wrath.
She believed that Xino would tear her to pieces.
At her side was a man with a scar on his face, wearing a peaked cap pulled low to hide the fierce light in his eyes.
The driver sat with his back ramrod straight, clearly someone who had been trained.
These were all Lin Qinghuan’s people.
She didn’t know exactly who Lin Qinghuan was or what she wanted to do.
But she did know that Lin Qinghuan was no good bird.
Her heart was venomously wicked.
Alina had no interest in uncovering Lin Qinghuan’s secrets; she only wanted to know when she could escape her control.
This was not the life she wanted.
Any day now, she could end up dead by Lin Qinghuan’s hand.
Meanwhile, Qin Yize and Luh Fei had already driven to the crossroads in front of the school.
The students were all in class.
The school gate was very quiet, only a row of tall poplars gently swaying in the wind.
Qin Yize gently rolled down the car window and quickly looked around.
Soon after, he noticed something unusual.
There was a row of snack stalls in front of the school.
Because the students were in class, the area in front of the snack stalls was very quiet.
However, there was a woman standing in front of a snack stall, eating something.
She appeared to be in her thirties.
She was wearing sunglasses.
Wearing sunglasses while eating?
Qin Yize said to Luh Fei, “Get out of the car, that woman must be Wang Xiu.”
Then, Qin Yize stretched out his hand and gestured to a jeep behind him.
With police officers and Luh Fei, there was no need for him to get out of the car.
Luh Fei and the officers approached the woman wearing sunglasses.
Just then, a man in his forties hurried out of the school’s main gate.
He was holding a kraft paper envelope.
The woman in sunglasses was about to walk forward joyfully but was stopped by the two officers and Luh Fei.
The officer holding a photograph compared it, then produced his credentials, “Hello, we are officers from the East Branch Bureau. Could you please show us your ID?”
Wang Xiu’s face turned pale, her body stiffened, her heart pounding.
Had the officers found her this quickly?
The officer’s piercing gaze fixed on her, and Wang Xiu reluctantly said, “Who carries their ID when going out?”
“Then your name, address, occupation…” said one officer as he took out a notebook. “We hope you can cooperate, there have been human traffickers around here recently…”
Wang Xiu’s heart skipped a beat.
She gripped her hands tightly and was just about to speak when the man with the kraft paper envelope called out, “Wang Xiu, I’ve transferred your daughter’s school registration. I…”
