Chapter 53: The Fool

I frowned, not expecting Qian Lixin to have conducted a secret investigation on me. I sighed, "No matter how skilled, one still fears the kitchen knife, right? Holding a knife, would I dare to fight back?"

Perhaps it was the sensibility of my words, Qian Lixin fell into a brief silence. During the tense moment between me and the police, he finally spoke, "Fine, you come over, but if the police behind you dare to take a step forward, I'll immediately jump down with this worthless person."

I nodded and shouted to the police behind me, "Stay where you are, don't move; I'm going to switch hostages."

The leading officer looked at me with some concern. I shook my head at him and then slowly moved toward Qian Lixin.

Qian Lixin watched my every move intently. Only when I was about a meter away from him did he shift his arm, holding onto Guo Linlin's clothing with one hand while ready to grab me with the other.
