Chapter 1021: Calm Down? That’s My Sister!

Editor: Henyee Translations

As word of the situation spread, panic ensued in the mall. Many people fled, fearing they might get caught up in the chaos.

However, the woman, clearly the boy’s mother, refused to leave, her eyes locked on her child in distress.

“Put your guns on the ground and back off, or I’ll shoot him,” the criminal demanded.

Xiao Cheng and Ye Hanchen, concerned for the safety of the hostages, complied to keep the situation from escalating.

“Alright, stay calm,” they said, lowering their guns cautiously while keeping a close eye on the criminals.

“Put them on the ground!” the criminal barked, pressing the gun harder against the boy’s head. “Or I’ll kill him!”

With no other choice, Xiao Cheng and Ye Hanchen retreated further and placed their pistols on the ground.

“They’re on the floor.”

Their priority was clear: the hostages’ safety came first, even if it meant delaying the arrest.

Most of the mall had been evacuated by this point. Gu Yang received messages from Gu Jin and Tong Wan, urging her to go downstairs immediately.

She replied to them but stayed where she was, keeping a close watch on the unfolding situation.

Someone had already called the police, and the sound of sirens echoed outside the mall.

Meanwhile, Xiao Cheng was negotiating with the criminals while Ye Hanchen subtly retreated, using Xiao Cheng as cover to signal for a sniper.

The criminal, still holding the child hostage, began moving toward the elevator.

Gu Yang was standing near the elevator entrance.

As the elevator door opened, she stepped inside.

However, before the elevator could descend, it was forced open again by the two criminals with the hostages.

Knowing that the police might deploy a sniper, the criminals opted for the elevator to avoid being exposed.

When Xiao Cheng and Ye Hanchen saw the criminals entering the same elevator as Gu Yang, their expressions darkened. They immediately grabbed their guns and sprinted toward the first-floor elevator.

At the same time, the first floor of the mall was being secured.

Chu Ying and Lin Ran led a team to surround the elevator, setting up a cordon.

“Xiao Cheng!” Ye Hanchen called out, noticing Xiao Cheng’s anxiety. He frowned and urged, “Calm down.”

“Calm down? That girl in the elevator is my sister!” Xiao Cheng was furious.

Wasn’t this sister supposed to be smart? He couldn’t understand why she would choose the elevator instead of any other escape route. What was she thinking?

While Xiao Cheng was bewildered by his concern, Ye Hanchen noticed something unusual.

The two criminals and the little boy hadn’t seemed to notice Gu Yang at all. They entered the elevator without acknowledging her presence.

When the elevator descended to the first floor, Chu Ying, Lin Ran, and their team were waiting, ready for action.

As the elevator doors opened, Lin Ran raised his loudspeaker, prepared to shout at the criminals to stall for time so the sniper could get a clear shot.

But before he could say a word, the two criminals were kicked out of the elevator, tumbling to the ground.

Lin Ran and Chu Ying were stunned.

Gu Yang, wearing a light yellow dress, calmly stepped out, guiding the little boy. He had stopped crying, and in her other hand, she held the gun that had belonged to the criminal.

Xiao Cheng, who had just sprinted down the stairs from the fourth floor, was stunned by the scene before him.

Ye Hanchen, following behind at a more leisurely pace, looked at Gu Yang with a thoughtful expression.

Chu Ying, momentarily shocked by the sight of the criminals on the ground, quickly snapped out of it and motioned for the officers behind her to apprehend them.

Lin Ran, surprised to see Gu Yang, hurried over. “Sister! Are you alright?”

Gu Yang shook her head and handed him the gun she had confiscated from the criminal. “Here.”
