"Don't worry, after Mary has finished dealing with those people outside, I will ask her to get the pair of handcuffs, and then... uh!!"
Only halfway through speaking, Bai Heqing's voice suddenly stopped, the smile on his face instantly froze, and a sharp pain suddenly came from his heart.
The pain came very suddenly, and Bai Heqing's body stiffened suddenly without any warning, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
【what happened? 】
The bearded man who was originally pinned to the ground by him seemed to have noticed the sudden relaxation of his hand, and began to struggle desperately again.
[Why suddenly...]
Taking a deep breath, Bai Heqing, who was almost thrown away, endured the severe pain from his left chest, forced himself to raise his breath, and pressed the struggling bearded man back with force again.
【I'm injured? 】
At this moment, this was the first thought that came to Bai Heqing's mind, but the next moment he denied the idea.
Absolutely impossible. The previous terrorists didn't even touch him. And for the wave of terrorists who came to support just now, he hid in the shop before they opened fire. There was no chance of him getting hurt. !
But why...
In just a few breaths, the pain in his left chest not only did not dissipate, but began to spread rapidly throughout Bai Heqing's body.
"Well!"
Opening his eyes wide, Bai Heqing groaned subconsciously under the stimulation of severe pain, and all the strength in his body was completely washed away at this moment.
"Get away!"
His brain was completely unable to think effectively, and the bearded man who was originally suppressed by him finally broke free from his control. He yelled and pushed Bai Heqing away from his back.
"cough!"
Falling heavily to the ground, Bai Heqing knelt on the ground, his face pale, breathing violently like a drowning person, big beads of sweat dripping onto the floor beneath him, his right hand clutching his heart tightly position, the whole person was shaking due to severe pain.
"You guy..."
His vision gradually darkened, and Bai Heqing vaguely saw the bearded man walking towards him, seeming to be saying something.
However, because the tinnitus in his ears covered almost all other sounds at this time, he could barely hear a few vague syllables and could not hear what the bearded man said at all.
Although the brain was unable to think effectively under the stimulation of pain that almost exceeded the limit of endurance, this did not prevent Bai Heqing from making the correct response based on his own instinct.
"Bang!"
Raising his hand hard, Bai Heqing pulled the trigger in the direction of the bearded man he last saw.
I say this because his eyes are now blind.
His ears were filled with strong tinnitus. After shooting, Bai Heqing vaguely heard the bearded scream.
【do you died? 】
As soon as this idea came to his mind, Bai Heqing felt as if his abdomen was suddenly hit by something. His whole body instantly fell to the ground and slid several meters on the floor.
"Fake..."
"Shirakawa!"
Realizing that he seemed to have been kicked away, Bai Heqing seemed to hear the bearded curse again, as well as Mary's anxious exclamation.
"Boom! Boom!"
Then there were several more gunshots, and Bai Heqing felt as if someone was approaching him. He subconsciously wanted to raise the gun, but his hand was suddenly held down by someone, and then the figure helped him up.
"Bai He...how..."
Vaguely, Bai Heqing heard Mary's voice again. This time the voice was very close, as if she was right beside him.
【It's Mary...】
This was the last thought in Bai Heqing's mind before he passed out.
"..."
For Mary, the counter-terrorism operation ten years ago was very successful.
Not only was the leader of the terrorists captured alive, but most of the hostages held were also rescued. Only a few died in the conflict between the action team and the terrorists.
Everything is close to perfect except for Shirakawa Kiyo.
At the last moment of the operation, Bai Heqing suddenly fainted and fell to the ground for some reason, and was almost killed by the terrorist leader.
If Mary hadn't noticed the abnormality behind her and put down the bearded man in time, something might have happened to Bai Heqing.
After that, the unconscious Bai Heqing was also included in the list of injured people and was rushed to a nearby hospital for rescue.
After Mary quickly completed the handover with her superiors and hurried to the hospital, Bai Heqing had woken up and took the initiative to go through the discharge procedures for herself. There seemed to be nothing abnormal at all.
Facing Mary's question, he just smiled and said that the old injury happened to relapse, so she didn't need to worry too much.
At that time, Mary completely believed Bai Heqing's explanation.
Because she could see clearly at that time that Bai Heqing had been holding his heart with her hand before she fell into unconsciousness.
She remembered the shot that almost shot through the heart of Bai Heqing in Paris when the two met for the first time...
At that time, she thought that the shot that almost killed him had left Bai Heqing with some sequelae, and she even fell into deep self-blame for it.
It was precisely because of this emotional interference that Mary subconsciously ignored why Bai Heqing, who could still fight back and kill the sniper without changing his expression even after being shot, would suffer from the pain of this sequelae more than ten years later. Fainted?
Why did he seem to not hear her voice when she put down the bearded man and tried to help Bai Heqing up, and even raised his gun to aim at her...
These small details were inadvertently ignored by Mary, who was trapped in self-blame and regret at the time.
Thinking about it now, Bai Heqing's sudden coma was definitely not as simple as the "old injury" he said...
"call……"
In Miwa Edo Street, Mary, who had carefully sorted out her memories from ten years ago, stood by the river and exhaled softly.
FBI's Kokoro Mamiya once speculated that Regel returned to Japan from Europe and the United States because of Shirley, and he also made it clear that Shirley had been secretly leading a very special research while he was in the organization.
However, before Mamiya Shin could investigate, Shirley disappeared, and he himself was killed by the organization not long ago.
Bai Heqing's obsession with Shirley, his sudden physical problems ten years ago, his hasty second fake death, Shirley's mysterious research...
[Yes, he obviously looks like he is in his early thirties...]
The words she once said to Bai Heqing came to mind again at this moment, and Mary suddenly noticed another extremely important person that she had ignored before.
Sharon!
She suddenly remembered that not only Bai Heqing, but also his wife Sharon... seemed to be very young too?
She had met Sharon when she was in the Kingdom of Andrew some time ago. Sharon's appearance at that time had not changed at all compared to ten years ago? !
The ageless looks of these two people...
Missing Shirley...
The organization's mysterious research...
Physical side effects…
In an instant, a dark thread hidden under the deep pool gradually connected in Mary's mind.
She slowly raised her hand to cover her mouth, her eyes filled with incredible shock.
She finally knew why the organization was so obsessed with the missing Shirley...
She finally knew the secret that had been hidden deeply by the organization...
【How can this be……】
She couldn't believe the madness of the organization and was shocked by the answer she came up with.
However, Mary didn't have much time to digest this shock.
Because while guessing the answer, she also guessed the real purpose of Shirakawa Kiyoshi's deception in this Edo street.
He's going to find Shirley.
The real Shirley!
Realizing this, Mary quickly took out her communicator.
[I hope it’s not too late...]
"..."
At the same time, at Dr. Agasa's house in Miwa Town on the other side of the city, Shirakawa Qing raised his hand and rang the doorbell.
