This scene feels somewhat familiar; back then on the bus, the suspect also took a child hostage and then escaped amidst the chaos.

Now seeing Yue Cheng about to approach the policewoman, Li Xiang's heart jumped. Already faster than others, he pushed himself even harder.

Yue Cheng might have thought of using the policewoman to threaten Li Xiang, but at such a close distance, he wouldn't have time to take a hostage before being interrupted by Li Xiang's actions, so he instinctively chose the optimal solution.

Which was to push the person towards Li Xiang to create trouble for his pursuit.

But it only caused a minor inconvenience.

After hugging the policewoman, Li Xiang turned around to relieve the force, set the policewoman upright, and instructed, "Call for backup," before continuing the pursuit.

Yue Cheng wasn't familiar with the internal structure, and after some chaotic running, he was cornered by Li Xiang at the third-floor stairway end.

Hearing the increasingly dense footsteps from behind, Yue Cheng knew he had to take a chance. He glanced out the window at the ground, thankfully, it was a green belt: "Here goes nothing!"

Gritting his teeth and stomping his foot, Yue Cheng jumped directly from the third floor.

The pursuing Li Xiang followed suit without a second thought, jumping down after him.

This scene stunned the pursuing Jinling police: This young man!

They didn't know how to describe it — was it bravery or recklessness?

Don't you see how many floors it is? He jumps and you jump too!

Once they had jumped, thinking any more was futile. So some officers rushed down the stairs in pursuit while others leaned out the window to look.

Just saw Yue Cheng limping out from the green belt, with Li Xiang, also somewhat limping, chasing after him.

As soon as they exited the green belt, the two started fighting again. Their fists connecting with flesh gave the officers from Jinling a sense of watching a cop thriller.

"Are all Jinghai police this fierce?"

As fellow police officers, they first looked at themselves, soaking goji berries in a thermos, embarking on the path of health care at a young age. Then they compared themselves to others; people indeed can't be compared.

"What's the name of this young man again?"

"In their task force, his presence is the least noticeable. Didn't expect him to fight so well; feels like he could take on ten of me."

"Did you notice? The person fighting against him is also quite skilled, ruthless in his moves, with a military toughness."

The spectators at the window analyzed in detail, while below Li Xiang gradually gained the upper hand, Yue Cheng had taken several of his heavy punches.

Especially his left cheek, which was swollen up substantially; judging by the appearance of the injury, Li Xiang was the clear winner.

"No more fighting, you're better than me, I accept the loss."

Seeing the officers from upstairs coming down too, Yue Cheng admitted defeat, waving off further fighting. He knew there was a significant gap in strength between him and Li Xiang; today, with him present, escape was impossible, continuing would only earn him more beatings.

The pursuing officers promptly restrained Yue Cheng, handcuffing him again.

"Use chains instead; he can open handcuffs," Li Xiang called out from behind the crowd, receiving an enthusiastic response.

"Alright, switch to chains, I'll go fetch them from the warehouse."

In the police system, people generally admire those who are skilled fighters. When Li Xiang first arrived, his youth led others not to pay much attention, but unexpectedly, he could fight very well.

Today, he played out a cop thriller fight scene in front of everyone, instantly energizing the crowd and keeping them restless.

The crowd surrounded him, asking all kinds of questions, quickly drawing the attention of the leadership as well; the Director Xu Yuanjie from the Jinling City Bureau made an appearance.

It's not that the leadership was slow to arrive, but rather the events unfolded too quickly.

From Yue Cheng knocking out Mao Ji to his recapture, only four short minutes had passed.

"Alright, don't crowd here, take the person back for tight supervision; this young officer also needs rest, so everyone, disperse." Director Xu dispersed the curious officers, then turned to Li Xiang with concern: "Is your leg okay? Would you like to go to the hospital for an X-ray?"

"Thanks for the concern, Director, it doesn't hurt anymore, no need for the hospital. I still need to wait for our Chief Feng to return to report the events."

"Good, as long as you're okay, you should go back and rest well."

Li Xiang remembered Mao Ji should still be knocked out at the entrance, so he saluted the leader and ran back.

"Jinghai Public Security is indeed skilled in cultivating the younger generation." Xu Yuanjie learned from the reports just now how formidable Li Xiang had been.

For a young talent like him, no leader wouldn't appreciate it. From his perspective, he saw Jinghai's efforts in nurturing young officers as successful.

If they pulled out young officers from Jinling for comparison, one by one, they lacked Li Xiang's toughness.

"There is a gap indeed!"

Li Xiang hurriedly rushed up, saw Mao Ji still lying on the ground, and promptly pressed the acupoint beneath his nose to wake him.

Mao Ji opened his eyes, his first words being: "Yue Cheng is running, quickly chase!" Then struggling up: "Yue Cheng ran away, Li Xiang, let's hurry and chase."

"No need to chase."

"How can we not chase? If he escapes, catching him will be difficult. Don't forget, he used to be a border reconnaissance soldier, he has a certain level of counter-reconnaissance skill."

Mao Ji thought Li Xiang was dismissive, quickly listing the consequences if Yue Cheng escaped.

"Brother Mao, what I mean is, Yue Cheng has already been caught, no need to chase." Seeing Mao Ji misunderstood, Li Xiang quickly explained.

"No, he can open handcuffs; I need to remind them lest he escapes again."

Mao Ji was frustrated too; he didn't anticipate Yue Cheng could open handcuffs himself, letting his guard down leading to a sneak attack, almost causing a severe mistake, feeling deeply guilty inside.

"Rest assured, they've already chained his hands and feet, this time he won't escape."

"That's good, Li Xiang, we're really grateful to you this time; otherwise, I wouldn't have the face to return and face Captain Yu."

"Brother Mao, don't say that, I'm part of the team too, it's what I should do. I've learned a lot from you in the task force lately."

"Haha, good brother, when we return to Jinghai, I'll treat you to barbecue."

Feng Yonglin receiving Mao Ji's call, learning they nearly let Yue Cheng escape, berated him over the phone: "What a disgrace getting there to Jinling, letting someone run during surveillance; you embarrass Jinghai Public Security!"

Mao Ji knew it was all his fault, stayed silent despite the scolding, for what Feng said was true, being berated made him feel somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, the person didn't escape in the end, averting a major mistake.

After bringing Song Xiaowen back to the police station, Jinling police's attitude towards them once made him feel they were mocking him.

"Chief Feng, your young officers from Jinghai are impressive!"
