Chapter 35: Chapter 35: The Girl with a Background

Such a serious shootout occurred in Capital Bangkok, and the police hotline was overwhelmed with calls.

The Thai police responded quickly, and just as both sides were in a standoff, the sound of police sirens could be heard in the distance...

The gang gunmen on the left side of the highway had been repelled several times, leaving a few bodies behind. Facing police reinforcements, they clearly didn’t dare to stick around and chose to flee instead.

Tessa and a few surviving Police could not pursue, and Mountain Eagle didn’t want to cause more trouble...

Just as Mountain Eagle was about to join Tessa, he suddenly heard desperate cries for help from a police car...

When Mountain Eagle looked over, he was surprised to find that the driver of the police car, having been shot twice, had miraculously survived.

He immediately approached, smashed the already cracked windshield with the butt of his M4, then after a few attempts, forcefully pulled the lucky survivor out...

As Mountain Eagle was rescuing him, several police cars rushed to the scene along the sidewalk, and several fully armed Special Forces officers with automatic weapons got out of the cars...

"Freeze, put your hands up..."

Mountain Eagle, propping up the lucky survivor, didn’t understand what the Special Forces were saying, but he got the gist and raised one hand to show he was no threat, while the other hand cradled the survivor’s neck and gently laid him on the ground...

One of the Special Forces officers saw that Mountain Eagle was cooperative, stepped forward, pointed his gun at him, and shouted, "Put down the gun..."

Seeing Mountain Eagle’s puzzled look, the Special Forces switched to English, yelling loudly, "Put down the gun..."

This time understanding, Mountain Eagle, with his hands up, kicked his M4 towards the Special Forces and then raised his right hand to signal...

"Don’t shoot, I’m a friend of Officer Tessa, I’m not a bad guy...

I’m going to put down the gun slowly. Call an ambulance quickly, this guy has lost a lot of blood, he needs to be saved."

Just as the Special Forces were ordering Mountain Eagle not to move, Tessa ran over to block the muzzle and, holding her credentials, shouted loudly, "I am Captain Tessa Paisonco from the Crime Investigation Bureau, this is my friend, he saved all of us..."

Mountain Eagle didn’t know if it was his imagination, but when Tessa announced her name, he felt the Special Forces relax a little...

Watching Tessa pulling one of the Special Forces and pointing in the direction where the gunmen had fled, she wanted them to pursue. But a few clearly hurried Special Forces shook their heads and then began to use the radio to call for backup...

Watching Tessa’s helpless look, Mountain Eagle shook his head in slight annoyance...

The language barrier is a big problem!

Since Mountain Eagle didn’t understand Thai, he could only judge what was happening by gestures, but knew nothing of the details.

Those Special Forces obviously came for Tessa; once they confirmed she was okay, two of them stuck to her side and didn’t leave.

Mountain Eagle couldn’t figure out what was odd...

When many doctors rushed out from a nearby hospital and gathered all the injured, Mountain Eagle, under the watchful eyes of the vigilant Special Forces, drew the pistol he’d borrowed, holding it by the slide to pass to Tessa...

"Do I still need to go give a statement?"

Tessa took the pistol and suddenly hugged Mountain Eagle tightly, then with her head against his chest, she started sobbing weakly, saying, "Thank you!"

Mountain Eagle, under the peculiar looks of several Special Forces, placed one hand on Tessa’s shoulder and patted her back gently with the other, saying, "No need to thank me, I’m just trying to stay alive..."

Tessa quickly realized she was a bit out of sorts, wiped her eyes with her hand, then stepped back and looked at Mountain Eagle, saying, "You can’t leave yet, I need your cooperation with some investigations..."

Mountain Eagle pointed to his nose, asking, "You need my cooperation with the investigation? Investigate what?"

Tessa, with slightly reddened eyes, looked at Mountain Eagle and said, "Did you notice where Basong went?"

Mountain Eagle, feeling puzzled, said, "Who is Basong?"

Tessa glanced at her companion and said, "He’s the murder suspect from the massage parlor case, his name is Basong, a retired soldier of the 191 Special Forces.

During the fight earlier, he took advantage of the chaos and ran. Have you seen him?"

Mountain Eagle glanced not far away, only to find that the sedan the blue-clothed man had been driving had disappeared at some point...

He shook his head slightly and said, "I saw him snatch a gun and kill a few gang gunmen, and then I lost sight of him."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle looked at Tessa and said, "I think it’s actually good that he ran. If you caught him, it wouldn’t just be his life on the line—his daughter wouldn’t stand a chance either.

Now it’s not bad. As long as he stays hidden, both you and the gang will have to work to find his daughter.

That guy clearly wants to trade his life for his daughter’s. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be announcing his identity everywhere.

Find his daughter, and he’ll show up on his own."

After listening, Tessa nodded and said, "Come with me back to the Crime Investigation Bureau. After we’ve recorded your statement, I will take you home..."

Saying this, Tessa looked apologetically at Mountain Eagle and said, "You’ve killed a lot of people. Until there is a final conclusion to this matter, you’ll need to stay in Bangkok.

Don’t worry. The whole cause and effect of the situation are clear. You saved the lives of my colleague and me, I guarantee you won’t be in trouble!"

As a legal citizen of Thailand, Mountain Eagle couldn’t find any reason to refuse Tessa’s request. He nodded and replied, "No problem, I’ll cooperate with you..."

Then, pointing at a few surviving officers from the gunfight, he said to Tessa, "As a leader, I think you should stand with your team right now.

Don’t worry, I will wait for you right here..."

After speaking, Mountain Eagle turned and walked to the side of the road, finding a spot out of the way to sit down on the grass by the roadside...

Thinking about the day’s events, Mountain Eagle couldn’t decide what expression to have.

As the actual person involved, he had been drawn into a shootout staged by the wanted imposter Li Gui. He didn’t know how the gang viewed him, but he was certain that he had cleared his identity with the police.

That Captain Tessa was obviously more than just a simple Police officer. The tactical officers who arrived first didn’t care about anything else, just sticking closely by her side...

If that’s not someone with a powerful family background, Mountain Eagle thought he might as well throw away his own eyes!

Thinking about the retired Special Forces soldier, Basong, who had come forward to take on the bounty for his missing daughter...

Mountain Eagle didn’t know what to say?

Having experienced the madness of a child abduction, he particularly understood how a father feels in such situations.

If there were any chance, as long as it wouldn’t expose his own identity, Mountain Eagle would not hesitate to lend a helping hand.

But in the current situation, he was helpless...

While Mountain Eagle was lost in thought, a car from the police department pulled up, and a middle-aged female officer with an imposing figure stepped out. Escorted by several officers, she walked briskly towards Tessa...

A few steps away, the middle-aged officer spread her arms wide and rushed up to hug the young woman heavily.

Meanwhile, a handsome man in his thirties in police uniform sat down next to Mountain Eagle...

"Are you Tessa’s boyfriend?"

Mountain Eagle was taken aback and pointed to his own nose, asking, "Are you talking to me?"

The handsome Police officer looked at Mountain Eagle, extended his hand, and said in proficient English, "My name is Taigore, I’m Tessa’s brother...

Thank you for saving my sister’s life!"

Mountain Eagle didn’t know what was happening. Ever since that seemingly high-ranking middle-aged beauty arrived, things had begun to slide into a track that he couldn’t comprehend...
