Chapter 560: Chapter 571: Uniform

"What’s that you got?"

After Li Yifei entered an empty office with Li Xinyue, she eagerly asked.

Li Yifei shook the contents of the bag out onto the table. Li Xinyue exclaimed with surprise, "Police uniforms?"

Li Yifei nodded and said, "Yes, police uniforms. If we wear these, we can definitely blend in. You have a pinhole camera, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Li Xinyue nodded her head excitedly in agreement.

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Then let’s get moving, hurry up and change."

"Right here?" Li Xinyue smiled cheekily at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei rubbed his nose and said, "I’ll stand watch at the door, make sure no one barges in."

Li Xinyue chuckled softly and said, "You’re not allowed to leave, okay?"

Li Yifei let out a dry laugh and quickly walked to the door, standing with his face outwards.

Watching Li Yifei’s back, Li Xinyue’s mouth curved slightly, and a sweet smile appeared. Even though Li Yifei was still so careful with her, being this close with him made her very happy. She quickly changed clothes and then said to Li Yifei, "I’m done."

Only then did Li Yifei turn his head and said, "Now you keep a lookout."

Li Xinyue nodded with a smile and also went to the door, facing outwards. Li Yifei then stripped off his clothes and trousers, leaving only his underwear. But at that moment, Li Xinyue suddenly turned her head back around.

Li Yifei swiftly pulled the police uniform in front of him while Li Xinyue chuckled, "I’ve seen it before; what’s there to be shy about?"

"When did you see?" Li Yifei’s eyes widened.

"During swimming," Li Xinyue blinked her eyes.

Li Yifei rolled his eyes. Time was of the essence; the criminals were already surrounded, so they could do anything. Every extra minute increased the danger for the hostages inside. He didn’t bother to argue with Li Xinyue anymore and quickly started to put on the uniform. Li Xinyue didn’t turn her head back the whole time, and her gaze was full of admiration as she watched Li Yifei change.

Just as they had both finished changing, someone entered from outside and was startled to see them.

Li Yifei immediately said, "We’re police officers, just preparing some equipment here," and then he and Li Xinyue strode out.

The person scratched their head, quite puzzled, unsure of why these two officers had turned up in their space.

"Brother Li, you look really handsome in a police uniform!" After walking a few steps, Li Xinyue tilted her head and whispered in Li Yifei’s ear.

Li Yifei turned to look at Li Xinyue. She was naturally beautiful, but in a police uniform, she had a charming charm with a hint of valor, causing Li Yifei to be taken aback.

Li Xinyue immediately said with a grin, "Brother Li, do I look good in uniform?"

Li Yifei nodded and sincerely said, "You really do look good."

Li Xinyue covered her mouth and giggled, "So Brother Li is a uniform enthusiast, huh?"

Li Yifei almost stumbled and fell, and Li Xinyue laughed even louder, "See, I hit the nail on the head, didn’t I? Look how excited you are."

Li Yifei, both amused and annoyed, glanced at Li Xinyue and said, "You’re not afraid of being seen. If they knew a major host like you said such things, it would shock all your fans."

"What do I even matter? If someone like you, Brother Li, isn’t afraid, then I care even less."

Seeing Li Yifei’s somewhat embarrassed expression, Li Xinyue leaned in again and whispered in his ear, "Hey, Brother Li, why don’t you come over to my place tonight? Lianyao and I can both wear uniforms for you. Whether you prefer police, nurse, or flight attendant, we’ve got you covered."

Li Xinyue was dangerously tempting, and Li Yifei knew if she kept this up, he wouldn’t be able to focus on anything else. He lifted his hand and slapped her on the buttocks, "We’re here on serious business, stop fooling around."

Li Xinyue’s behind was slapped; besides a bit of pain, she also felt a tingling, numbing sensation that immediately gave rise to a strange feeling inside her. Her body softened, and she instinctively grabbed Li Yifei’s arm, her eyes sultry and filled with irrepressible spring fever.

Li Yifei hadn’t expected Li Xinyue to react this way. He quickly stopped in his tracks. If he continued and people saw Li Xinyue acting this way next to him in public, that just wouldn’t do. He asked quietly, "Are you okay?"

Li Xinyue, with her face blushing, glanced at Li Yifei and said shyly, "Brother Li, you’re so mean, hitting someone’s... butt."

Li Yifei looked at Li Xinyue puzzledly and said, "It was just a slap; it shouldn’t have this effect, right?"

"My behind is sensitive."

She said this with such coquettish charm that it sent a ripple through Li Yifei’s heart. But by then, Li Xinyue had already stood up and said, "Now that you know my secret, you have to take responsibility."

Li Yifei found the situation quite intriguing. Every woman has her sensitive spots, but Li Xinyue seemed exceptionally so. Just one slap had her in this state; he couldn’t help but imagine what would happen if he were to slap her twice in bed. The thought was captivating.

For those with a bit of a sadistic streak, a woman like Li Xinyue would certainly be a rare find. Although Li Yifei didn’t have such inclinations, he thought some light play in bed could certainly spice things up.

Putting aside his fanciful musings, Li Yifei and Li Xinyue left the building. He dragged Li Xinyue this way and that until they blended into a group of policemen.

For a major case like this, regular police officers would rarely have any experience. The officers from Mile City were no different. Several departments were already on the scene, so it was quite normal for the officers not to recognize each other. Amidst the crowd, not a single officer questioned Li Yifei and Li Xinyue’s presence.

On top of the mixed personnel, the policemen were extremely tense. They may have been brave when handling minor cases, but the criminals inside were not only extremely vicious and holding hostages, but also armed. Who knew if they would start shooting at the police? In the event of gunfire, who could say for certain if a stray bullet wouldn’t find its way to them? After all, how many become policemen truly for the duty, as opposed to having a respectable job that allows them to wield authority? When it came to risking their lives to apprehend criminals, nine out of ten would likely back down.

In addition to the average officers, some important city officials were also present, such as Mile City’s Chief of the Public Security Bureau, Ning Changzheng. Naturally, he had to be there to take personal command of the situation; with a major incident like this, he would have no place in his role otherwise.

The spot Li Yifei had picked was near where Ning Changzheng and the others were located. Before, he had only been able to get a rough idea of the entire museum using Li Xinyue’s camera. To understand the specific situation inside, however, he needed to get information from Ning Changzheng and his team.

Meanwhile, Ning Changzheng was rather livid as he demanded, "Why haven’t we gotten a clear picture of the situation inside?"

Another policeman, who seemed to be a leader of some sort, promptly responded, "Director Ning, these criminals are extremely cunning. Once they realized they couldn’t escape, they immediately found cover and hid. They also have people specifically controlling the hostages, and they’ve even destroyed the surveillance cameras inside. I don’t believe these are ordinary criminals; they must have received specialized training."

Ning Changzheng furrowed his brows. From the current situation, he, of course, could tell that they were not ordinary opponents. The fact that they were cornered yet remained unflustered was proof enough.

At that moment, a man suddenly walked out of the museum with his hands raised high. He was pale, covered in sweat, and trembling. He stuttered, "Don’t... don’t shoot."

The moment he emerged, countless gun barrels were aimed at him. It would be strange if he weren’t nervous, and indeed, he was no criminal but a hostage. Behind the hostage, another figure followed, with a black hood over his head that left only his eyes exposed, and a handgun pressed against the back of the hostage’s head.

"Let your boss come out and talk," the criminal barked while holding the hostage by the shoulder with one hand and brandishing his gun with the other, keeping his body hidden behind his captive.

Director Ning immediately declared, "I am Ning Changzheng, the Chief of Public Security Bureau of Mile City. I warn you, drop your weapons and surrender now. Continual defiance will only make your charges heavier..."

"Bang!" Director Ning hadn’t finished when a gunshot cut him off, and the police suddenly scattered for cover, with a few unable to keep their cool and firing off several shots in return.

However, their marksmanship left much to be desired, as only one bullet hit the hostage in the thigh, while the rest missed entirely.

The hostage cried out in pain, but the criminal roughly yanked him up by the collar, pressing the gun barrel hard against his neck, silencing any further resistance.

Director Ning roared in anger, "Who gave the order to shoot?"

The few policemen who had opened fire went pale. Firing recklessly and wounding a hostage, they had clearly broken protocol.

"Chief Ning, seems like the quality of your Mile City police isn’t all that great, is it?" the criminal mocked.

Director Ning’s face reddened with rage. This incident was indeed embarrassing for the Mile City police, but in the face of a criminal, he had no need for further words. He said coldly, "This is a warning to you. If you continue to resist, we will stop at nothing to take you down."

"Chief Ning, can we not make such lofty statements? What if all these hostages were to die, could you handle the consequences? Don’t bother with those grand principles; I don’t like hearing them. Let’s keep it simple. Get us two vans with full tanks and let us leave. Otherwise, we will kill a hostage every ten minutes."

The criminal spoke with such calm and confidence, revealing that he wasn’t just an experienced hand but also someone with an exceptional mental fortitude.
