Chapter 871: Chapter 871: Gunshots on a Rainy Night 2

It was perhaps He Zhilan’s voice that called the person on the brink of death back; Niu Rang, who was lying on the ground with barely any breath left, actually opened his eyes. However, it was only a brief glimpse before he closed them again, but his hand moved.

"Niu Rang, it’s me, He Zhilan! I’m your sister-in-law! Hang in there, I’ve called the police, and as soon as they arrive, they will take you straight to the hospital! Niu Rang, you must hang on!" He Zhilan quickly reached out to hold Niu Rang’s hand, wanting to encourage him this way. Niu Rang was so seriously injured that she didn’t dare to touch him further, let alone carry him out of this alley.

"Sister-in-law."

Niu Rang called out to He Zhilan, his eyelids gently lifting, but it was apparent how strenuous it was for him.

"Sister-in-law, I can’t make it~ My clothes and the gun, please, transfer them to my fiancée, and the gun, remember, must be handed personally to Xing Ye or Deputy Commander He."

As he spoke, Niu Rang suddenly coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, terrifying He Zhilan, who almost lost her senses. At that moment, He Zhilan hated herself—why wasn’t she a doctor?

If He Dongxue had been here, then she definitely would have found a way to save Niu Rang.

"Niu Rang, you can’t give up. Your fiancée is still waiting at home for you to marry her. You have to keep going; you can’t leave her alone, Niu Rang, don’t sleep, wake up."

He Zhilan tightly grasped Niu Rang, repeatedly calling his name. At this moment, she had only one thought: she could not let Niu Rang close his eyes again. She was afraid that once Niu Rang fell asleep, he might never have a chance to wake up.

"Sister-in-law, if you see her, tell her I’m sorry. Tell her not to worry about me, to just find a good man and get married~"

Now, for Niu Rang, every word spoken cost not just blood but his very life.

To him, at this moment, being able to say one more word was also a gain, "Sister-in-law, don’t cry. I, Niu Rang, am not afraid of heaven or earth, but I’m most afraid of seeing a woman cry. Our deputy commander cherishes you so much; if he knew I made you cry, he would definitely beat me up."

"Niu Rang, He Teng and I remarried half a month ago. I’ve always been asking him when you would be back. Even Kang Xing attended the wedding, but you didn’t. Niu Rang, you must hang in there. Once you recover, He Teng and I will attend your wedding!" He Zhilan clenched her teeth, watching as Niu Rang’s breathing grew weaker, her heart shattering bit by bit.

Niu Rang’s blood gradually stained her hands completely. She wished she could return this blood to Niu Rang’s body—not to take away his warmth, much less his life.

"We remarried, huh~ That’s good~"

These seven words unexpectedly became the last seven words left by Niu Rang in his life.

Afterward, no matter how many times He Zhilan called Niu Rang’s name, he no longer responded.

Half an hour later, the police finally arrived, led by Jennifer’s guidance. He Zhilan, clutching Niu Rang’s body, cried until she was almost voiceless.

"I called you guys long ago! Why did you only come now! Why! If you had come earlier, he might have been saved! Do you know that the time you delay is your own, but it cost him his life! He was only in his twenties! Still so young!"

He Zhilan, unable to contain her rage, bitterly scolded the group of police officers, hating her own helplessness as she faced Niu Rang gradually losing his life!
