The live broadcast of the dismemberment would start at 12. At 11:50, the police were still clueless.
At 11:53, the number of fans following the murderer's account was close to ten million. He updated it with another message, "It seems that the police have no way to save their medical examiners. Well, I shall bring forward my performance as a sign of gratitude to you all."
At 11:54, Lu Boyan arrived below the 16th block. The chief showed him the latest news uploaded by the murderer. Lu Boyan's eyes narrowed and he called Mu Sijue.
He could not wait any longer, no matter whether this was the last moment or not.
There was someone else who could wait no longer. It was the murderer who was at the end of his rope.
He held his knife and walked toward Su Jianan slowly. "We are about to start. Don't be afraid. There are many people online watching us."
He cut off the rope that tied Su Jianan, leaving behind the ones that circled her hands and legs. Then, he carried her off the chair and laid her flat on the ground. He took out his phone and took a photo of her. "This is the last photo of your complete body. I have to take it well."
Su Jianan looked at Jiang Shaokai. It was also at this moment that Jiang Shaokai successfully untied the rope around his hands. He stood up suddenly and charged at the window—
There was definitely a sniper waiting for the right moment. As long as he could pull open the curtains, the sniper would be able to take aim at the murderer.
The murderer's expression changed drastically when he discovered Jiang Shaokai's movements. He threw down the mobile phone and grabbed his gun.
He aimed the black gun at Jiang Shaokai. Su Jianan screamed hoarsely, "Jiang Shaokai!"
"Clack—"
The heavy curtains were pulled open forcefully.
The mid-afternoon sun was extraordinarily strong as it surged into the room. Su Jianan was blinded by the sunlight and closed her eyes. Then, she heard the sounds of two gunshots.
"Bang—"
"Bang—"
The second gunshot was followed by the sound of glass shattering. It was shot by the police sniper from outside. The first shot... came from the room.
Su Jianan ignored the pain from the blinding sun and opened her eyes. She saw the man and Jiang Shaokai both lying on the floor.
The sniper shot again and the man's hands and feet were shot and he could no longer move. Meanwhile, Jiang Shaokai's abdomen had been shot. Blood stained his white shirt and the color on his face slowly faded.
"Jiang Shaokai!"
Su Jianan could not untie the ropes on her hand and feet no matter what, and she could only struggle where she was.
Just then, there was a loud bang. It seemed that the main door outside had been forced open. Then, Su Jianan heard many footsteps of people running in. She did not care and only looked at Jiang Shaokai and called out his name.
Someone helped to untie the ropes around her hands and feet and she seemed to have smelled a familiar scent. But she did not care to investigate further. She crawled towards Jiang Shaokai and helped to cover his wound with her trembling hands. Blood stained her hands and flowed from the gaps between her fingers.
Her eyes slowly grew red.
"Don't cry." Jiang Shaokai tried to smile. "I still have things to tell you. Jianan, if I die so uselessly by this bullet, help me tell my parents that I've just gone to visit my grandmother. Tell them not to be sad..."
