Wrong Interrogation Room, The First Cracked Case Shocked the World

Chapter 14: The ultimate counter-kill, the operation is really showy!

"Who can give me a bottle of mineral water?"

In the tense and silent atmosphere, Ning Cheng's voice broke the stillness.

Zhao Tianfeng's eyes narrowed, his expression wary as he glared at Ning Cheng, his tone sharp, "What are you up to?"

"After chasing you for so long, don't you get thirsty?" Ning Cheng's gaze swept the crowd before asking again, "Can anyone give me a bottle of mineral water?"

The onlookers hesitated, caught between generosity and caution in the standoff between Ning Cheng and the murderer.

"I have mineral water here!" Old K's voice cut through the uncertainty as he retrieved a bottle from his partner and held it up.

A hip-hop youth nearby looked puzzled, "What's going on?"

Old K paid no mind, stepping forward to offer the water to Ning Cheng.

"Thank you," Ning Cheng expressed his gratitude before turning to Zhao Tianfeng, offering the water, "You must be tired too. Thirsty? Would you like some water?"

"Stay back! Don't come any closer, or I can't guarantee my actions!" Zhao Tianfeng's warning was sharp, his nerves on edge.

Ning Cheng retreated as instructed, holding up the water in a gesture of peace, showing he meant no harm.

The audience became more bewildered, unsure of Ning Cheng's intentions with the water.

Many suspected it was a ploy to get close to Zhao Tianfeng and strike back.

However, Zhao Tianfeng remained vigilant, his guard up.

Ning Cheng remained composed, a faint smile playing on his lips as he observed the situation.

Glancing at the virtual panel on the system, a line caught his eye - world-class precision throwing experience.

Ning Cheng's real intention wasn't to offer water but to obtain the bottle.

During his training, he wasn't authorized to carry a gun. However, this bottle of water was now his equivalent to a firearm, a loaded bullet.

The exchange between Ning Cheng and Zhao Tianfeng seemed like negotiation, but it was a tactic to lower Zhao Tianfeng's defenses and lull him into a false sense of security.

And now, that goal had been achieved.

"Zhao Tianfeng, do you think I'm a policeman?" Ning Cheng's question was calm, his demeanor non-threatening.

"You're no cop. After chasing me for so long, am I blind?" Zhao Tianfeng retorted angrily, cursing his luck at encountering someone like Ning Cheng.

"If I tell you I'm not a policeman, would you believe me?" Ning Cheng inquired with a steady gaze.

"Why bother with the charade?" Zhao Tianfeng's frustration was evident.

"What you see with your eyes can deceive you. The truth lies in what you feel," Ning Cheng's tone was cryptic.

With those words, Ning Cheng's entire demeanor shifted dramatically.

Nervousness, madness, numbness, and a chilling aura emanated from him, transforming him into a figure more menacing than Zhao Tianfeng.

For a moment, Zhao Tianfeng was stunned. How could this be? Was Ning Cheng similar to him? Another murderer?

As Zhao Tianfeng hesitated, Ning Cheng winked subtly before hurling the bottle of mineral water at him.

The 550ml projectile soared through the air, propelled by Ning Cheng's strength, striking Zhao Tianfeng's arm with a resounding impact.

A sickening crack echoed as Zhao Tianfeng dropped the dagger from his hand.

Seizing the opportunity, Ning Cheng swiftly closed the distance, kicking the weapon away and restraining Zhao Tianfeng with handcuffs.

The swift, decisive actions left the bystanders in disbelief, their reactions delayed.

Ning Cheng had successfully neutralized the threat and secured the hostage, Zhao Tianfeng.

Old K and the hip-hop youth, watching from a distance, were wide-eyed in astonishment.

"Incredible! That was a masterful move. Using water as a weapon, that's a show of skill!"

"We thought it was a negotiation tactic, not a tactical strike with a water bottle!"

"This officer is truly exceptional. A real hero!"

The onlookers erupted in applause and cheers, praising Ning Cheng's bravery and ingenuity.

"Excellent work! The young man is our savior!"

"Using mineral water to save the day? Impressive!"

"Wow, the police officer is amazing. I want to be one when I grow up!"

As the applause and admiration washed over him, Ning Cheng remained vigilant, his focus unwavering.

Shortly after, Zhang Zhengkai and the detachment leader Zhou Ze arrived in a police car, bringing a sense of relief to Ning Cheng.

"You pulled it off, outstanding!" Zhou Ze praised Ning Cheng, his expression one of astonishment.

"Solving the case in the morning and capturing the criminal in the afternoon. You're on fire!" Zhou Ze marveled.

"Just luck, I stumbled upon it," Ning Cheng modestly replied with a slight smile.

"Luck or not, you've achieved what others dream of. Let's see who this criminal is?" Zhou Ze led the way to Zhao Tianfeng, inspecting his face closely.

"Damn, it's Zhao Tianfeng, a Class A wanted criminal!"
