"Murder! Murder!"
The voice came from afar and soon reached the ears of Sheng Fenghua and Si Zhanbei, causing their expressions to change. Si Zhanbei, in particular, looked straight ahead like a falcon.
Then, a running man entered their eyes, holding a kitchen knife with blood dripping from it.
Closely behind, a few men and women were chasing after him.
The distance between the two parties was getting closer and closer. At the end of the market, there were many people who heard the commotion and stopped to watch the show.
"Quick! Help us stop him. He has killed someone! Don't let him escape!" The people chasing behind him shouted for help as they ran.
Hearing this, some of the onlookers were bold enough to immediately surround the man and capture him. Si Zhanbei had also put down the things in his hand and was quietly approaching the man's back, preparing to catch him by surprise.
As for Sheng Fenghua, she did not notice Si Zhanbei's actions at all. She was frowning at the man with the knife, thinking about something.
When the man saw that he could not escape, he looked around. Soon, Sheng Fenghua, who was standing in the middle and was the closest to him, entered his eyes.
At this moment, Sheng Fenghua was holding something and was standing there in a daze. At a glance, she looked like she was scared out of her wits.
Looking at Sheng Fenghua and the people who were about to surround and catch him, the man holding the knife quickly made a decision. He rushed to Sheng Fenghua and pulled her into his arms. The kitchen knife in his hand was placed on her porcelain neck.
Si Zhanbei, who had just walked behind the man, saw this scene, and his face instantly turned ugly. Although he had thought that the other party would take a hostage, he did not expect that the person would be Sheng Fenghua.
"Let her go!" Si Zhanbei came in front of the man and Sheng Fenghua with a murderous aura and said coldly. At this moment, he could not help but blame himself. If he had not been afraid of startling the man just now and had been a step faster, this would not have happened.
"Let me go!" The man looked at Si Zhanbei. The hand holding the knife was already trembling. He could see the murderous intent in Si Zhanbei's eyes.
"I'll say it again. Let her go!" Si Zhanbei held back his anger and repeated his sentence with a gloomy face.
He was a soldier. It was his duty to defend the country and the people. But now, he couldn't even protect his little wife well. He actually let her be kidnapped. Si Zhanbei blamed himself.
"Don't even think about it!" After the man shouted dropped the words, he pulled Sheng Fenghua back a few steps. He could see that Si Zhanbei was a dangerous person. His instincts were screaming at him to stay away.
At this time, the men and women who were chasing the man also arrived. They were stunned when they saw the man had kidnapped Sheng Fenghua. They had never expected that the man would not only kill someone but also take a hostage. What was he trying to do?
Could it be that he wanted to kill another person?
At this moment, Si Zhanbei's gaze shifted from the criminal to Sheng Fenghua. When he saw that her face did not show any signs of fear, he was both surprised and relieved.
He thought to himself, 'As expected of his wife.' She did not change her expression when facing the criminal and remained calm.
However, he still comforted her. "Fenghua, don't be afraid. I will save you."
Hearing this, Sheng Fenghua smiled.
Actually, she didn't need Si Zhanbei's help to deal with this gangster. It was just that she was holding something in her hand, and it wasn't convenient for her to do it.
Nevertheless, seeing Si Zhanbei's worried look and listening to his reassuring words, she was still very happy.
However, looking at the smile on Sheng Fenghua's face, the crowd that was watching the show immediately burst into a discussion.
