Chapter 231: Chapter 231: Bury Him

"Zhang Guisheng!"

Xiao Lu blinked hard and reached into his pocket with one hand.

Jiang Cheng immediately took out the papers from Xiao Lu’s pocket, which contained Zhang Guisheng’s basic information.

"Fake—"

"Fake?"

Xiao Lu blinked again.

Jiang Cheng understood.

"I get it, Zhang Guisheng, the identity is fake, he stole it."

Quick-witted Jiang Cheng guessed and asked, "Is he a fugitive? Blink twice if yes, three times if no."

Xiao Lu blinked twice, struggling to keep his eyes open, trying to make Jiang Cheng understand.

"I understand, he stole the identity, he is a fugitive. You are safe now, we will catch him."

Xiao Lu smiled, the message got out.

Jiang Cheng looked at Gao Zhonghua, who immediately understood and said:

"I’ll go back, you be careful."

"Don’t worry, I can take care of myself!"

Jiang Cheng’s confidence and assurance didn’t lessen Gao Zhonghua’s worry, but if he didn’t go, Jiang Cheng would have to.

"Hmm!"

Gao Zhonghua responded with a hum and pushed through the crowd towards the compartment.

At the same time, Jiang Cheng looked at the chaotic crowd and shouted loudly, "Sit down!"

"There are bad guys on the train, the more chaotic you are, the more opportunities for him!"

"If you don’t want to get hurt, sit down, otherwise you might be the one taken as a hostage by the bad guy!"

"The bloody example is lying right here!"

Jiang Cheng shouted several times before everyone finally calmed down.

The little girl was right, the more chaotic, the more dangerous.

After seeing everyone sit down, Jiang Cheng continued, "Men who think they can fight a bit, please sit on the outer seats, there’s only one of him, and there are so many of us, what are we scared of?"

"As long as he dares to come, we can bury him with our luggage."

"Come on, listen to me, place some heavy luggage bags at both doorways, have something heavy in your hands, and once you see the bad guy coming, trip him up. Don’t get close, just smash him with things!"

"Smash hard!"

"For those further back who can’t reach, pass it to the person in front, use all your strength to smash!"

To be fair, Jiang Cheng’s plan gave everyone a great sense of security.

The train compartment began to move in an orderly manner.

A few minutes later, sounds of pursuit rang out.

Unexpectedly, the first feeling of the people inside the train compartment was excitement!

They were about to do something big!

Soon, Zhang Guisheng, wielding a knife, rushed over, his eyes searching for the best hostage.

Zhang Guisheng was sprinting over.

"Push!"

At the sound of a push, two luggage bags originally hiding behind the door suddenly popped out.

With a thud, Zhang Guisheng was tripped solidly to the ground.

"Smash the hand!"

Another command was given, and someone, holding a stick, thudded down, knocking the knife out of Zhang Guisheng’s hand.

"Bury him!"

At the command to bury him, Zhang Guisheng only saw darkness after darkness before his eyes.

The next second, heavy blows caused pain all over his body.

After smashing through an unknown number of bags, a stout man finally jumped on him.

Bang!

Without exaggeration, even the train seemed to tremble with emotion.

In just under a minute, Zhang Guisheng, let alone taking a hostage, was no longer visible.

The train compartment was filled with cheers.

The pursuing train police and Gao Zhonghua, witnessing the scene, burst into laughter.

Soon, a nearly unconscious Zhang Guisheng was dug out.

Xiao Lu’s colleagues quickly came over, with one checking Xiao Lu’s wound.

"Good medicine."

The checker looked at Jiang Cheng, who calmly said, "I used the medicine."

The medicine she used was from this era.

Of course, when she bought it in modern times, it cost many times more.

Just as she finished speaking, she noticed the pained expression of the other person.

"What a waste, her wound isn’t deep enough to warrant such good medicine."

Jiang Cheng nonchalantly replied, "No matter how good the medicine is, it’s not as valuable as a human life."

Xiao Lu was carried back to rest, and when the train stopped, he would be taken to a hospital for an examination, but the problem shouldn’t be too serious.

The person was caught, and the situation was almost settled.

Xiao Lu said she called to verify and learned that Zhang Guisheng himself had already died, so Xiao Lu went to search through fugitive photos.

It was at that moment she was attacked.

Just as someone walked by, Zhang Guisheng hurriedly shoved her into the toilet.

However, Jiang Cheng reacted quickly and found Xiao Lu in the shortest time possible, while the swiftly returning Gao Zhonghua and the approaching train police located Zhang Guisheng immediately.

Zhang Guisheng originally planned to find Hua Ying, but the compartment door was locked by Li Chunxiang and couldn’t be opened at all.

Seeing several train police approaching, he realized something was wrong and started to run.

And then he was "buried."

Jiang Cheng and Gao Zhonghua returned to the compartment, where Li Chunxiang checked over Jiang Cheng up and down.

"Luckily, you’re okay." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"Silly girl, you’re okay too, and so are we all."

Jiang Cheng lightly hugged Li Chunxiang and patted her back, saying, "Comrade Li Chunxiang, you did very well!"

Hugged Li Chunxiang shifted from fear to a spreading smile, finally asking for a reward.

Jiang Cheng cooperated and said, "No problem, I’ll treat you to a meal."

Before Li Chunxiang could respond, Hua Ying spoke first, "Let me treat you."

"I’ll treat you all to a meal, since this all started because of me, let me do something."

Jiang Cheng looked at the clearly shaken Hua Ying.

"A bad guy doing bad things, why would it be your fault?"

"It’s fine if you treat us to a meal, but that reason doesn’t hold."

Hua Ying’s nostrils suddenly felt sore.

It had been a long time since she cried.

Because she knew crying was useless.

If it were useful, she would have long used it to protect her mother.

"Thank you, Comrade Jiang Cheng!"

"Thank you!"

Hua Ying bowed deeply, unable to express her gratitude.

Jiang Cheng didn’t like such a sad atmosphere, joking around to get everyone talking about other topics.

At noon, Hua Ying treated everyone to a meal.

This time, Jiang Cheng was not polite and directly ordered the most expensive dish, and Hua Ying, who spent the money, was overjoyed.

In the afternoon, the conductor came over and briefly explained Zhang Guisheng’s situation.

"Actually, his real name is Qiu Shanpao. After killing two of his wives, he was on the run. He looked somewhat like Zhang Guisheng, whom he also killed, and then assumed Zhang Guisheng’s identity to go to the provincial city."

"He met Hua Chunseng, learned some things about the Hua Family, and seemed to be planning on really marrying Comrade Hua Ying."

The conductor paused, but everyone in the compartment understood.

Hua Ying’s fate would likely have been the same as those two former wives.

Jiang Cheng placed her hand over Hua Ying’s cold fingertips.

"It’s okay, don’t be afraid, he’s caught and won’t be getting out."

Hua Ying held onto Jiang Cheng’s warm fingers, seemingly finding peace only this way.

The conductor also told them that Comrade Xiao Lu was fine and that Zhang Guisheng would be handed over to the local police.

"I’ll take my leave now."

The conductor left, with Li Chunxiang seeing him off.

Inside the compartment, Hua Ying finally released Jiang Cheng’s hand, her heart cold as water.

"Do you think my dad knew about this? Did he know Zhang Guisheng’s background?"
