The huge building, like a silent giant, fell with a loud crash, as if the world had become extremely quiet
…
“Why are you standing there stunned?” Lu Liran stood upstairs and called Jiang Kun, “Don’t let anyone get away.”
Jiang Kun came back to his senses because of Lu Liran’s scolding. He shook his head vigorously to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind. The four cancers spreading everywhere right now is his target.
When Jin Fei saw Jiang Kun joining in, he made a gesture from a distance, indicating that the other party should cooperate with him.
Jiang Kun：“……”
It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t understand, but he understands. Due to the current situation, he can only cooperate and obey the instructions of a guy who suddenly jumped out.
Fortunately, it didn’t take long before the sirens finally stopped outside. Teams of armed police officers rushed in from outside the factory door, and three huge spotlights slammed into the factory, directly illuminating the factory. It has to be the same as during the day.
Everyone subconsciously raised their hands to block the light.
Lu Liran narrowed his eyes slightly and heard someone shouting at the gate of the factory: “Everyone raise your hands! Don’t struggle or resist! Otherwise, we will shoot immediately!”
Lu Liran twitched the corner of his mouth. It would be damned if those gang of desperadoes would listen to these words.
Sure enough, several gunshots were heard one after another, directed towards the criminal policeman who had just spoken.
Fortunately, they were very prepared over there, and their bulletproof wall was tightly guarded. After finishing their usual scene remarks, the brigade also began to counterattack.
Lu Liran blew a whistle to remind Jin Fei. After hearing the whistle, Jin Fei quickly joined Lu Liran in a tacit understanding. The two of them hid in the corner instead of their previous fierce offensive.
Jiang Kun on the side also followed Jin Fei obediently and hid in the corner on the other side.
“This is to avoid being accidentally injured by the criminal police team.” Lu Liran glanced at the live broadcast room and explained.
“The uniforms of the criminal police brigade have special coatings, and their contact lenses have the function of identifying the coating, which can avoid being accidentally injured in the melee, but forget about people like us, it’d be kind of funny to be too active and be regarded as a gang member from the opposite side.” Lu Liran twitched the corner of his mouth.
What’s more, it’s already reached this point. There is no technical content, so there is no need for them to intervene. They can just be ordinary citizens waiting for rescue.
Apparently Jiang Kun had the same idea at this moment.
[Brother Lu: Be cowardly when it’s time to be cowardly]
[That’s right, you’ll lose blood due to accidental injuries in such a fight]
[Just wait and see, just wait and see]
The exchange of gunfire outside became more intense.
Previously, it was just a one-sided artillery attack from the drug dealers’ side. Even after being disarmed and counterattacked by Lu Liran, they still had so much fire power, after all they only used it to his own people, but now that there were several more criminal police brigades with fire power, the intensity of the confrontation immediately increased by several levels.
Lu Liran frowned and looked up at the constantly vibrating steel structure. There were even cracks in some places, and the cracks were expanding rapidly.

Jiang Kun couldn’t help but be confused when he saw Lu Liran and Jin Fei suddenly making moves. After hesitating for a few seconds, he quickly followed up.
Lu Liran glanced at the tail that was following him from the corner of his eye but didn’t say anything, the three of them took advantage of the chaos and moved towards the factory gate.
Naturally, the gate was guarded by an armed detachment. Lu Liran and the other three immediately raised their hands to signal: “We are hostages who entered by mistake. There are four people outside who escaped with us.”
The war at this moment has spread to the depths of the factory, and the door is just to guard the fish that slipped through the net. At this moment, three men came out and claimed that they were hostages. Several criminal police officers looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward and groped the three men all over their bodies.
Jiang Kun had a weapon and three magazines on him, Jin Fei had a long knife on him, and Lu Liran had…
The criminal police twitched his lips and looked at the three daggers, the Kaishan sword, and a handheld laser gun, and two magazines that suddenly appeared on the ground, then he looked at Lu Liran: “?”
Lu Liran said indifferently: “Self-defense. Wouldn’t this come in handy? Oh, I picked up the equipment from the ground.”
[Hahahahahahahahahahaha, fuck, it’s still Brother Lu’s show! You actually brought so many knives?!—— Potato Pancake gifted the anchor 1x Sukiyaki Pot]
[It’s okay to make the police look stupid, hahahahahaha]
[Finally, I don’t think the police officer will believe what the hostages said. I don’t know why I should be worried, but I just want to laugh out loud]
[Laughing to death, these three people look more cruel than drug dealers—— PickledFish gifted the anchor 1x Top-quality Wagyu beef]
[Please show the drone footage of a certain guy with his head separated in three layers and the mustache guy that was stabbed to the heart by a knife]
The criminal police officer looked at Lu Liran with an expression that seemed to say, “You’re kidding me.”
“Have you met the four escaped hostages outside? If you don’t believe me, you can ask them.” Lu Liran narrowed his eyes.
The police officer looked at Lu Liran suspiciously and spoke into the walkie-talkie again, probably comparing the descriptions given by the hostages.
Finally, the criminal police officer’s expression was slightly stiff, and he looked at Lu Liran and the others a few more times with his eyes wide open in surprise. After final confirmation, he took the three of them out: “Be careful, follow me.”
They successfully left the dangerous factory building.
It was still raining outside, and the police officer gave raincoats for each of the three to put on.
Lu Liran said to the criminal policeman: “There are still more than twenty hostages inside. But this building will collapse at any time.”
The police officer was stunned when he heard this: “The building will collapse?”
He frowned and said: “Then come with me for a moment.”
Lu Liran quickly followed the criminal policeman to the brigade captain’s command area and saw the brigade captain giving remote command.
“Captain, this man said the factory building could collapse at any time and the hostages inside would be in danger.”
The captain heard this and turned to Lu Liran: “Who are you? The architect?”
“The factory is an old factory that has been abandoned for more than ten years. All the building structures inside have not been maintained or renovated. A big explosion of that magnitude occurred more than ten years ago, and the structure itself was very fragile. And now a high-intensity firefight in such an environment is no less than firing a cannon on the tip of a snow-capped mountain. This is common sense.” Lu Liran said.
The police officer next to him took a deep breath and looked at the captain nervously.
The captain relaxed his brows and said: “So this is what you are worried about. We considered it on the way and got confirmation from a professional architect that the condition of the building here can withstand second-grade firepower.”
Lu Liran frowned when he heard this. Can it withstand it? If it can withstand it, the previous stairs wouldn’t have broken so easily.
He sneered: “Has the architect you are looking for been to the site? Or is he calculating the wall hardness with a computer? Has he considered that the level of building materials more than ten years ago and the level now are completely different standards?”
Jiang Kun and Jin Fei followed them at some point. Jiang Kun said in a rough voice: “We are inside, and we know better than you that the building inside is not stable! At least take the hostages out first. We will talk about the rest later.”
“Hostages are more likely to be accidentally injured by stray bullets in the line. Who is responsible for this danger?” The captain asked.
Jiang Kun choked and suddenly lost his voice.
Lu Liran said nothing more and just said: “I brought the warning. The choice of the lives of the last twenty hostages and your subordinates is your business.”
The captain was silent for a few seconds, and finally picked up the walkie-talkie: “There are still hostages in the factory. Send a team to cover the hostages and leave first.”
Jiang Kun added after hearing this: “On the fourth floor in the southeast corner.”
“The southeast corner of the fourth floor.” The captain glanced at him and added.
“Roger, Captain.” A reply came from the intercom.
About ten minutes later, the brigade’s intercom rang again: “Captain, we have found twenty-four hostages, move out now.”
“Good.”
“Captain, we have completed the cleanup here. We have confirmed that the number of drug gangsters is thirty-eight and the death toll is nine, including the key arrest target Fang Chengxiong.”
The captain smiled when he heard this, very rewarding.
“Good, escort them out.” He turned on the intercom and said.
“Receive.”
The captain looked at Lu Liran, Jin Fei and the others and said: “Don’t worry, all the suspects have been eliminated, all the hostages have been found, and the building has not collapsed.”
Jiang Kun glanced at the man, a little allergic to the expressions on the captain’s face, and muttered: “It seems that I am right. It’s really unpleasant.”
“It’s better than the factory building really collapsing.” Jin Fei said from the side.
Just as he finished speaking, a muffled thunderous sound suddenly sounded out of thin air. Everyone subconsciously looked at the sky, thinking that it was thundering again outside. Only Lu Liran’s expression changed.
“Let them hurry up!” Lu Liran said hurriedly to the captain.
Not long after, the intercom rang again:
“Captain! No, the building is going to collapse!”
The captain’s expression changed with shock when they heard this, and they immediately shouted: “Everyone evacuate, evacuate immediately!”
He stood up suddenly and looked at the other side of the factory building dozens of meters away, and saw that the building seemed to be shaking.
In less than ten seconds, the huge building like a silent giant collapsed with a loud bang, as if the world had become extremely quiet.
Everyone opened their eyes wide, and the movements seemed to have turned into slow motion, looking at the billowing dust and smoke in front of them in disbelief.
[……?! fall down? ! The old factory really collapsed!?]
[Where are the people? Have the people inside escaped?]
[I’m going, do they have time to run out? It just collapsed in the blink of an eye just after they said that. How can it be so fast?]
[Brother Lu reminded them, but it’s useless]
Jiang Kun’s eyes suddenly widened and he slammed his hand: “Fuck!”
The criminal policeman who brought Lu Liran to the captain was also stunned on the spot. After a few seconds, he suddenly reacted and rushed towards the factory.
“This is the anti-narcotics team of Shuimu Old Factory. Ask for rescue, repeat, ask for rescue, our people and twenty-four hostages were pressed into the collapsed building, about fifty people in total.”
The surrounding team was suddenly busy and panicked, and the voices requesting for the deployment of support manpower filled their ears.
Jin Fei opened his mouth and was stunned for a few seconds before looking at Lu Liran.
Lu Liran pursed his lips in silence. After a while, he turned around and walked away from the crowd, calling Jin Fei: “Let’s go, what happens next has nothing to do with us.”
Jin Fei reacted, he reacted, and quickly followed.
Jiang Kun’s eyes were red and he didn’t react. He couldn’t help but ask: “Are you leaving now? What will happen to those people who are trapped below?”
“Go and rescue them if you can.” Lu Liran tugged at the corner of his mouth, without turning around, but glanced at Jiang Kun, “Dozens of tons of construction materials fell down. A slight movement may cause the original life-saving tripod to collapse. Maybe the people who survived will be hit again. This kind of rescue is not just about manpower, it requires technology.”
Jiang Kun understood what Lu Liran meant. He couldn’t help clenching his fists, looking at Lu Liran, then at the place that had been reduced to ruins, and finally ran back without saying a word.
[Hey, Jiang Kun ran back again! What is he going to do?]
[It’s useless to run back]
[Oh, it’s all collapsed. You can only rely on prayers from now on]
[+1]
[If those people had listened to Brother Lu from the beginning and jumped down with ropes tied to them, they might have all escaped]
[Who would have imagined it]
The rain outside began to fall heavily again, and Lu Liran and Jin Fei hurried back to the tent where they were originally stationed without saying a word.
They saw a low-key metal black flying ship parked at the other end. The tent had been put away. Qi Feng and her brother were standing by the hatch, waiting for Lu Liran and Jin Fei.
“Mr. Lu, Mr. Jin.” Qi Feng called.
She looked at the factory not far away and could no longer see the tip. The loud noise just now made them guess the situation. She whispered: “You have tried your best.”
Awww R.I.P those poor people I hope at least some of them make it out alive…. ☹
Wow. Hope some of the crew and cops made it out… Thanks for the update 😳
