615: Chapter 604 Despicable Person_2 615: Chapter 604 Despicable Person_2 Hank and Erhu’s men split into four groups, attacking Tangyu from four directions, ensuring there was no way for Tangyu to escape.
On one side was the reservoir, and they attacked from all four directions without leaving any gaps.
With an AK47 in hand, Hank took the lead, rushing out first and firing a burst towards Tangyu.
Tangyu reacted quickly, leaping into the reservoir.
Bullets hit the ground, emitting crisp sounds.
“Bang bang bang!!!”
Gunshots erupted from all around as police officers emerged from hidden trenches, all armed with submachine guns; over a hundred SWAT officers came out, completely surrounding Hank, Erhu, and their twenty-plus men.
Gunfire riddled the air, blood spurted, and bodies fell.
Some tried to jump into the reservoir, but there was no chance for that.
“Despicable Huaxians, I’m fighting you to the end,” Hank yelled angrily, becoming crazed.
“Second in command, we’ve been deceived; this is a trap.
Damn it, we’re going to die here.”
“Curse it, despicable Tangyu, you scoundrel, my death is trivial, my death is trivial,” Erhu screamed in fury.
The fully armed SWAT naturally offered no chances, and the terrain was quite flat, leaving no room for maneuver.
Further, the disparity in numbers and equipment was too great; thus, the battle ended quickly.
Hank, five of his men, and nearly twenty of Erhu’s were all killed on the spot, none survived.
The SWAT’s combat ability was indeed formidable.
Blood had already dyed the shores of the evening reservoir red, a sight too grisly to behold.
The SWAT quickly gained control of the scene and established a perimeter.
The SWAT team leader walked out with Liu Shiyi, who had never seen such a bloody scene before and retched several times.
If not for her restraint, she would have vomited.
Fortunately, the SWAT had already secured the bodies so that one had to deliberately look to see them.
Liu Shiyi came to the front of the reservoir and looked at the surface of the water, but she did not see Tangyu.
Minutes had passed since he had submerged, naturally causing her to worry.
“Tangyu, it’s safe now, come out quickly,” Liu Shiyi shouted towards the water.
The SWAT team leader also came over, his gaze sweeping the water’s surface as his brow furrowed, “Hmm, what’s going on?
Divine Doctor Tang still hasn’t surfaced; it’s been over three minutes.
Could there be an accident?
The reservoir water is toxic; Divine Doctor Tang was truly risking his life.”
This comment made Liu Shiyi even more worried, nearly crying as she exclaimed, “Tangyu, stop playing around, don’t scare us, come out quickly, come out!”
But the water’s surface remained undisturbed, as if Tangyu had sunk like a stone in the sea.
After waiting a while longer, Liu Shiyi became so anxious that she almost dashed into the reservoir, but fortunately, the SWAT team leader promptly stopped her, “Miss Liu, don’t be rash, the water is toxic, and it’s very dangerous for you to go like this.
Here, I’ll immediately have someone suit up in diving gear and go down.”
“Commander, please hurry and save Tangyu, quickly,” Liu Shiyi urged urgently.
“Alright, alright, don’t worry, I believe Divine Doctor Tang will be fine.
Miss Liu, you care so much for Divine Doctor Tang; you like him, don’t you?” the commander said, his words urgent but his demeanor not so much.
“I—” Liu Shiyi struggled to speak, wanting to say she didn’t like him, but she found the words impossible to utter as they approached her lips, as if they weighed a ton each.
“Ah, liking someone is just liking them, you’re all young, why be so hesitant and restrained?
Young people should be bold, daring to love and hate.
If you love someone, you should boldly pursue them, right?” the squad leader said.
“I—” Liu Shiyi didn’t know what to say, and seeing that the squad leader still hadn’t called for anyone to rescue Tangyu, she urged again, desperately, “Squad leader, hurry and send someone to save Tangyu, hurry, it’s a matter of life and death.”
“Oh right, life and death, I know, just turn around and take a look yourself,” the squad leader said with a smile.
Liu Shiyi furrowed her brows, turned her head, and saw Tangyu standing behind her, smiling at her, drenched from head to toe, obviously having just climbed out of the water himself.
Seeing that Tangyu was unharmed, Liu Shiyi felt a surge of emotion and almost cried.
Overwhelmed with happiness, she almost wanted to rush up and hug Tangyu tightly, but she held herself back.
“Why cry?
Look, I’m perfectly fine, how could I bear to worry you,” Tangyu said with a smile.
“Smile, you still can joke around in this situation, you did that on purpose, right?
Humph, I’m not talking to you anymore,” Liu Shiyi stamped her foot and ran off.
Tangyu shook his head with a smile and did not chase after her.
At this moment, the Yang County Magistrate Ouyang Mulin and the leader of their group arrived, as did other members of the traditional Chinese medicine team.
The situation here was still shocking to witness.
“Wow, Divine Doctor Tang truly is a genius at predicting events, to have foreseen these two groups of thieves monitoring us secretly to seize an opportunity to strike.
This trap, well dug, got all of them buried at once, indeed fulfilling a divine retribution.
Divine Doctor Tang, it seems you’re not only a master of medicine but also in other areas that command respect.
I’m thoroughly impressed,” said the Yang County Magistrate, full of admiration and appreciation.
Many people also looked at Tangyu with admiration.
Indeed, they couldn’t help but respect him, his maneuver was brilliantly executed.
Many were unaware until now and couldn’t help feeling the urge to marvel loudly.
From the beginning, Tangyu had guessed that Ertiger and the Black Specter organization would follow them, seeing it as too good of an opportunity to pass up.
Moreover, Tangyu was certain they had been stealthily watching his every move, waiting for the right moment to strike.
They had hesitated to act because the Yang County Magistrate and many police and SWAT team members were there, and those people naturally did not dare to make a move easily.
Direct confrontation would be suicidal.
Thus, they were waiting for an opportunity.
Initially, Tangyu was busy detoxifying the villagers and had no time to attend to them.
Once the villagers were completely detoxified, Tangyu began to strategize.
His meeting in the car with the Yang County Magistrate and Liu Shiyi was to discuss his plan.
He had the Yang County Magistrate secretly position the SWAT team to ambush near the Wanshan Reservoir.
Naturally, a large-scale direct deployment would attract suspicion, so this operation was extremely covert, unknown to all others.
The villagers of Wanshan and the police served as excellent cover, allowing the secret deployment to proceed smoothly.
The highlight was naturally the confession scene between Tangyu and Liu Shiyi.
It had to appear real, otherwise, they might not deceive the enemy.
Thus, Tangyu chose this emotional scene, which can be said to have been performed naturally by both, so there was no need to act, and the authenticity would not raise Ertiger’s suspicions.
Otherwise, how could such a clever man like Ertiger be easily fooled?
After setting these traps, it was just a matter of waiting for the enemy to take the bait.
Liu Shiyi ran ahead to the Wanshan Reservoir and then hid in a trench set up by the SWAT team.
Tangyu couldn’t risk having Liu Shiyi join him in the dangerous part, so she had to hide.
Fortunately, this move did not arouse the enemy’s suspicion.
Everyone knows what happened next.
Of course, jumping into the reservoir was also part of Tangyu’s pre-planned strategy, choosing Wanshan Reservoir for its advantageous conditions for self-protection, concealment, and setup.
All these combined—comprehensive and flawless—eventually led to the capture of Ertiger’s men and the Black Specter terrorist organization, and Ertiger was killed on the spot.
The whole of Donglin City had been pursuing Ertiger without success, but Tangyu’s trap swiftly ended him, compelling admiration from everyone.
The Yang County Magistrate was overjoyed, considering Tangyu’s actions another great gift.
Although Tangyu was the main character in this operation, the Yang County Magistrate certainly could claim some credit too.
Thinking of this, the Yang County Magistrate felt extremely pleased with himself, fortunate to have Tangyu, truly a blessing.
