"Murder! Murder! "
The sound came from afar and soon reached Sheng Fenghua and Si Zhanbei's ears, causing their expressions to change. Si Zhanbei, in particular, stared straight ahead like a falcon.
Following that, a man who was running entered their sight. He was holding a kitchen knife that was dripping with blood.
A few men and women were chasing after the man.
The distance between the two parties was getting closer and closer. Many people who heard the commotion stopped to watch the commotion at the end of the market.
"Quick, help stop him. He's killing someone. Don't let him get away." The people who were chasing after the man shouted for help as they ran.
Upon hearing this, some of the bolder ones were ready to surround the man and capture him. Si Zhanbei had already put down the things in his hands and was quietly approaching the man's back, ready 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, deep in thought.
Seeing that he could not escape, the man scanned his surroundings. Soon, Sheng Fenghua, who was the closest to him, was his target.
At this moment, Sheng Fenghua was holding something and standing there in a daze. She looked like she was scared out of her wits.
Looking at Sheng Fenghua and the people who were about to surround and capture him, the man with the knife quickly made up his mind. The man with the knife quickly made up his mind. He came to Sheng Fenghua in a few steps and pulled her into his arms. The knife in his hand was placed against Sheng Fenghua's neck.
Si Zhanbei, who had just arrived behind the man, saw this scene and his expression instantly turned ugly. Although he did expect the other party to take someone hostage, he did not expect that person to be Sheng Fenghua.
"Let her go!" Si Zhanbei came before the man and Sheng Fenghua with a murderous aura and said coldly. At this moment, he was blaming himself. If he was not afraid of startling the man and was a step faster, this would not have happened.
"Let me go!" The man looked at Si Zhanbei. His hand that was holding the knife was trembling. He could see the killing intent in Si Zhanbei's eyes.
"I'll say it one more time. Let her go!" Si Zhanbei suppressed his anger and repeated with a solemn expression.
He was a soldier, and it was his duty to protect the country and its people. But now, he couldn't even protect his wife and allowed her to be kidnapped. Si Zhanbei blamed himself.
"Don't even think about it!" The man roared and pulled Sheng Fenghua back a few steps. He could tell that Si Zhanbei was a dangerous person, and his instincts told him to stay away from him.
At this time, the men and women who were chasing after the man also arrived. They were stunned when they saw the man holding Sheng Fenghua hostage. They didn't expect that the man had just killed someone, and now he was taking hostages. What was he trying to do?
Could it be that he wanted to kill another person?
At this moment, Si Zhanbei shifted his gaze from the criminal to Sheng Fenghua. When he saw that there was no trace of fear on Sheng Fenghua's face, he was both surprised and gratified.
He thought to himself, 'As expected of his wife. She didn't even bat an eyelid in the face of the scoundrel.
However, he still comforted her. "Fenghua, don't be afraid. I'll save you."
Hearing this, Sheng Fenghua smiled.
There was no need for Si Zhanbei's help to deal with this criminal. It was just that she was holding something in her hand, so it was inconvenient for her to do it.
Nevertheless, she was very happy to see Si Zhanbei's worried expression and to hear his comforting words.
However, when the crowd saw the smile on Sheng Fenghua's face, a commotion broke out among them.
