C454 Water Shock
At this moment, several small black carriages approached and stopped nearby. A group of women in black got out of the car and hurried toward the poppy.
Huo Mingshen was standing aside. Seeing this, he frowned — these women were well-trained and had a vigorous build. Even their footsteps had some power to them. Especially the intimidating aura exuded from them, no one dared to underestimate them. Could it be that these women were related to the owner of Soong Shiyan's current body?
Seeing that these women were here to rescue Soong Shiyan, Huo Mingshen stood aside quietly, waiting for an opportunity to act.
Seeing the group of people rushing over, Poppy didn't have the time to push Soong Shiyan into the car. She held Soong Shiyan in one hand and pointed the blade at Soong Shiyan's throat again. Fortunately, Soong Shiyan hadn't completely lost her consciousness, so she could still stand. Otherwise, even if she killed Soong Shiyan today, she wouldn't be able to leave this place.
"All of you, stop right there!" Opium poppy looked at the approaching members of the organization with a trace of nervousness on his face. "If anyone dares to approach her again, Dijin will definitely die by my hands today!"
Hearing this, the women did not dare to take another step forward. They hesitantly looked at the small car behind them, as if they were waiting for an order.
A woman in her thirties slowly opened the door and stepped out. The woman was also dressed in black, her hair scattered over her shoulders. Her gentle face had a hint of coldness to it, and the cold aura she gave off was truly not to be looked down upon. This woman was Freya.
Soong Shiyan was originally dizzy, but she felt the hand holding the butterfly knife trembling slightly. She was shocked and frightened at the same time — if the hand continued to shake like this, perhaps it would cut her throat.
She sensed the murderous aura in the distance, so she raised her head with great effort and looked in that direction. However, her vision was blurry, and she could only see the black figure. Her face could not be seen clearly.
Soong Shiyan wanted to ask that person what relationship Dijin had with someone in the upper echelons. Why would the organisation rush here when something happened to her? But right now, she couldn't say anything. She could only helplessly look at that figure.
"Opium poppy, put down the blade in your hand. Perhaps I can give you a chance to live!" Freya said coldly, looking at the poppy.
Poppy's hands were still trembling, but she tried her best to maintain a calm state of mind, lest she lose all face in front of her peers. She laughed and said slowly, "Freya, do you think I would believe you? "Last time, I shot Dijin and escaped the organization. This time, I attacked her again. Will the organization let me live?"
"Opium poppy, if you turn around now, I will ask my lord to spare your life. If you insist on doing so, don't blame me for being merciless." Freya said coldly, looking at the poppy.
Hearing this, Soong Shiyan knew that this cold and awe-inspiring woman was not the leader of the organization. With this, she became even more curious about the boss of the organisation hiding behind the scenes.
Upon hearing this, opium poppy laughed somewhat mockingly and said, "Survive? "Even if I do let Dijin go, even if boss leaves me alive, I think I'll just die a horrible death when the time comes. Even if I die today, I'll drag Dijin with me to die with me!"
After saying that, Poppy pulled Soong Shiyan along as they slowly walked to the railing by the side of the road.
Freya's face grew colder. She nodded to one side, then stood in the distance, looking at Poppy and Soong Shiyan.
At this moment, under the threat of the opium poppy, Soong Shiyan had already slowly climbed over the railing with her and stood on the outside.
The night wind was somewhat strong, blowing the flags on the roadside and making them flutter. Dijin's figure was originally slim. In Huo Mingshen's eyes, Soong Shiyan could be blown away by the wind at any time. Seeing this, Huo Mingshen clenched his hands nervously.
"Opium poppy, I will swear on my life that as long as you let Dijin go, even if I have to risk my life, I will still protect you." Freya said loudly, afraid that the poppy had killed Soong Shiyan on impulse.
Unbeknownst to them, Freya's words only served to strengthen the already wavering heart of the opium poppy. Why? Why was Dijin so important in the eyes of her boss, to the point where her boss would make an exception for her time and time again?
"Freya, what's the relationship between Dijin, her boss? Why, for her, have you broken the rules again and again? "Why can't so many people in the organization compare to Dijin's safety?" Poppies looked at Freya, somewhat indignantly.
Freya looked at the poppy and said nothing.
Seeing this, a trace of a resolute smile surfaced on Poppy's face. She looked around at the crowd, and her voice carried a hint of hoarseness as she said a little crazily, "I know that I won't be able to escape this time, but before I die, if I can hold Dijin to my back, then I'll be dead for sure!"
After saying that, Poppy took the butterfly knife and slashed at Soong Shiyan's neck.
Seeing this, Freya nodded coldly to the side.
Huo Mingshen stood to the side, but his face was drained of color. Trembling, he dashed towards Soong Shiyan with all his might — if Soong Shiyan died, he dared not imagine what his life would be like in the future!
Just as Huo Mingshen rushed to the railing, before he could reach out his hand to stop the poppy, both of them fell backwards at the same time. A few seconds later, he heard a splash.
Huo Mingshen felt as if some warm liquid had splashed onto his face. His hands trembled as he touched his own face, then he opened his palm, revealing a blood-red blood stain. Seeing this, Huo Mingshen's face turned pale. He quickly lowered his head and looked into the river.
There were still ripples around the point of fall. Under the light of the street lamp, Huo Mingshen saw a large amount of blood floating on the surface of the water. Seeing this, Huo Mingshen's face turned completely pale. Without any time to think, he jumped over the railing and jumped into the water right after — — Soong Shiyan, you can't die!
Freya saw Soong Shiyan fall into the water and hurried to the railing.2
"Vice leader, what should we do now?" a woman asked, looking at Freya.
"Let's wait first." Freya held out her hand to signal everyone not to worry, to see what was going on before making any plans.
It turned out that just now, in the nick of time, the sniper hidden in the dark had struck the arm of the opium poppy wielding the knife. The butterfly knife had fallen from the hand of the opium poppy and she and Soong Shiyan had fallen into the river together because of the impact.
Seeing that Soong Shiyan wanted to surface, the opium poppy could only use his one good hand to grab onto Soong Shiyan — — Even if she were to die in this river today, she wanted Dijin to die with her!
Soong Shiyan had been injected with a tranquilizer earlier, so even if she did her best, she would only be able to surface a little. However, the poppy had been grabbing onto her ankle the entire time, leaving her powerless.
Soong Shiyan did not have much strength left in her to begin with. She could not even struggle as she choked on a few mouthfuls of water in panic. Because of the constantly bleeding wound from the poppy, even the river that Soong Shiyan had drunk had a faint scent of blood.
Suddenly, she felt as if she had returned to the day of her death. It was just that the chain that had stopped her from going upstream had become the hand of the poppy.
Just as Soong Shiyan was about to lose all hope, a figure approached her. The black shadow in the blood-colored field of vision made Soong Shiyan's heart calm down. A trace of a relieved smile appeared on her face — — Even though she couldn't see clearly, she knew that the black shadow swimming towards her was definitely Huo Mingshen.
The moment Huo Mingshen jumped into the water, he felt that his vision turned blood-red. He looked around the water and saw two figures fighting. Without hesitation, he swam towards that direction.
Seeing that someone had arrived, a trace of ruthlessness surfaced on Opium Blossom's face — if not for the butterfly knife falling from her hands, Dijin would have long since become a ghost under her own blade. However, she definitely wouldn't give up so easily!
At this point, the poppy stopped pulling Soong Shiyan's ankle with its hand. Her four limbs were wrapped around Soong Shiyan, like a soft vine, tightly wrapping around Soong Shiyan.
Huo Mingshen swam up to Soong Shiyan and found that she was almost holding back her anger and was about to roll her eyes. Huo Mingshen walked up to Soong Shiyan and found that Soong Shiyan was holding back her breath and was about to roll her eyes. Huo Mingshen did not care about anything else, supporting Soong Shiyan's face, mouth to mouth, and helping her to breathe.
Seeing that Soong Shiyan seemed to have slightly calmed down, he hurriedly swam to the back of the poppy, reached out his hand, and tried to pull it down from Soong Shiyan's body. However, like an octopus, Tiankui tightly wrapped around Soong Shiyan's body, making it impossible for him to pull her off her body.
Seeing Soong Shiyan's pained expression, Huo Mingshen didn't care about being a gentleman anymore. He grabbed the poppy with one hand and reached out his other hand to touch its arm. When he found the wound, he twisted it so hard that it made the poppy choke.
Even though the opium poppy was determined to die along with Soong Shiyan. However, from the moment she choked on her first mouthful of saliva, she had always been in a state of choking water. Under the urge of her survival instinct, she finally loosened her grip on Soong Shiyan and flopped into the water, attempting to swim upwards.
Seeing this, Huo Mingshen took the opportunity to drag Soong Shiyan out of the water.
Seeing Huo Mingshen and Soong Shiyan come out of the water, Freya finally let out a sigh of relief. She turned to the woman beside her and said, "Go down and see if she's still alive. If she's still alive, rescue her, bring her back to the organization, and interrogate her!"
The woman nodded and jumped over the fence without hesitation.
Soong Shiyan hugged Huo Mingshen's neck and breathed in the fresh air heavily. Her hair was hanging down on her face, and she couldn't keep her eyes open.
However, her bedraggled appearance was still moving in Huo Mingshen's eyes. Now, she wrapped her arms around his neck. Although it made him a little breathless, Huo Mingshen was very happy inside. Even the smile on his face had a trace of happiness.
"If you don't let go, I'll drown with you in this river." Huo Mingshen said with a smile as he looked at Soong Shiyan's face, which was almost within his reach.
Although Soong Shiyan's consciousness was a bit blurry, she still heard Huo Mingshen's words. Hearing that, a hint of shyness appeared on her face. She quickly let go of Huo Mingshen's hand and let him support her. Her consciousness became more and more blurry, and her eyelids became heavier.
