The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker-Chapter 617 - 581: Capture People

The sound of gunfire was dense, the banquet hall in complete disarray.

To avoid alerting the enemy, the people arranged by Gu Linhai and Gu Yao in the banquet hall were left untouched.

But the retaliation came much faster than they had expected.

Without any signal from Gu Linhai and Gu Yao, their men on the second floor began shooting, covering their escape.

Qiao Yuxian fired two shots, then retreated and said, "Someone in the banquet hall is helping them. They must hold significant weight with Gu Linhai and Gu Yao."

Because this person could mobilize their people beyond the control of Gu Yao and Gu Linhai.

"Hmm." Gu Yanjing replied, "Any idea who?"

"I have a suspect," Qiao Yuxian said, "Quan Rong. The man beside Qiao Shuning."

Gu Yanjing’s gaze swept over.

Everyone at the banquet was hiding underneath.

The tables and chairs blocked the view, making it hard to see who was who.

Gu Yanjing took out an earpiece, put it on, pressed it twice, and said, "Don’t let anyone leave from the banquet. Pay special attention to someone named Quan Rong."

Qiao Yuxian added, "A professor from Jin City University."

Gu Yanjing repeated her words.

Qiao Yuxian untied her skirt and said, "Let’s go around this way."

With the skirt removed, Qiao Yuxian was still wearing a pair of casual pants underneath. She tossed her phone into her pocket and the skirt to the side.

"Hmm." Gu Yanjing first glanced at her discarded skirt, then gestured to Chu Zhengran.

Indicating for them to go ahead, while Qiao Yuxian and he went around the back.

Chu Zhengran indicated agreement.

Tang He and the Jin City police also joined them.

Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian flanked from one side, leaving some of their men at the front, while others also went around the back.

Once they reached the second floor, they realized it was teeming with people.

Dividing their fire, the people on the second floor soon became disorganized.

Qiao Yuxian and Gu Yanjing kept shooting, relentlessly closing in. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Reaching a range for close combat, Qiao Yuxian holstered her gun at her back and swiftly advanced.

The adversary tried to fire back. But Qiao Yuxian was too quick, locking his wrist before he could shoot, causing the gun to fall.

She kneed him, dropping him to the ground immobile.

Gu Yanjing followed closely, taking down the next opponent.

The two coordinated perfectly, dispatching several opponents in the blink of an eye.

Then they used their guns again to take out a few more.

Seeing the overwhelming force on the second floor, the remaining opponents abandoned the first floor, focusing solely on the attackers above.

Chu Zhengran and Lu Muyao seized the opportunity on the first floor to pursuit Gu Linhai and Gu Yao.

Lin Huai Shu and Lu Mengyi waited outside all along.

After neutralizing Gu Linhai’s men outside, they rushed in to join Chu Zhengran’s search.

Shang Chen entered and immediately escorted Wen Mingcheng and Assistant Jian out.

Gu Yanjing, Qiao Yuxian, and Tang He pinned those people on the second floor.

The gunfire ceased, it was all close combat now.

Spent some time resolving everyone on the second floor.

The police took care of the aftermath.

Gu Yanjing, Qiao Yuxian, and Tang He also went immediately to look for people.

The hotel was only so big, and time had passed, yet there was no news of their targets.

Gu Yanjing, pressing on his earpiece, asked, "Zhengran, where are you?"

"There’s a secret passage under the hotel. Don’t know where it leads." Chu Zhengran replied.

The Huashang Hotel belonged to Gu Linhai.

Fearing the obvious threat, the Huashang Hotel had not been approached or investigated.

Only the layout of the hotel had been mastered.

They naturally didn’t know about a secret passage underground.

Gu Yanjing and his team quickly searched the area.

Chu Zhengran and his team inspected around the entrance of the secret passage.

They were unaware of the situation below.

If there was any danger inside, entry might mean no way out.

Lin Huai Shu remarked, "Checkpoints have been set at every critical exit in Jin City. Wan Ying is also expanding the search area."

Even if they found the secret passage and descended immediately, there was no danger inside. However, they were unfamiliar, making it unlikely they’d catch up.

They could only search on the ground to find the exit of the secret passage.

"It’s more likely they’re heading towards the port area." Qiao Yuxian stated.

"Hmm. Focus on that area." Gu Yanjing said, "Leave some people here, and the rest search the hotel."

Chu Zhengran looked at him, "You think they’re still hiding in the hotel?"

"Not necessarily." Gu Yanjing replied.

Tang He said, "Thirty or so floors. How many people are living? How many rooms are empty? Isn’t the local police here? Have them report and search."

After saying this, he went to find the police.

Over an hour later, news came from Wan Ying, Gu Linhai had been captured.

But they only caught Gu Linhai.

No sign of Gu Yao.

At that moment, news came from those who entered the secret passage.
