CHAPTER 88: CHAPTER 88: SUBWAY TERROR

At the same time, she had already dialed the emergency number.

"Hello, Xiao Lin..."

"Sister Hong, quick, someone’s attacking with a knife at Yellow River Station metro, hurry!!!"

Upon hearing Lin Xiaoyan’s words, Mao Hong’s sleepiness was instantly dispelled, her heart tightened, "I’ll inform them right away!"

Mao Hong quickly ran towards the office, shouting as she went, "Police dispatch! Police dispatch!"

"Yellow River Station metro, someone’s attacking with a knife, now, Xiao Lin called, hurry up!"

Upon hearing Mao Hong’s shouts, those on duty at the police station rose quickly, grabbing their things, and ran outside fast.

"Contact metro station staff, quickly evacuate the crowd..."

"What’s Lin Xiaoyan’s phone number? Let me inquire about the specifics."

"Get in the car quickly, oh yes, call the emergency services, get them to hurry over!"

...

All of a sudden, the entire police station sprang into action, one patrol car after another speeding out from the station.

Passersby who saw one patrol car after another zoom by were filled with curiosity.

What major incident has occurred?!

Liu Xin had already arrived at the milk tea shop, watching the patrol cars disappear down the road, she asked Li Wen in confusion.

"Xiao Wen, what’s happened?"

Li Wen shook his head, watching the spot where the patrol cars disappeared, "I don’t know."

Meanwhile, metro station staff had received the call, and upon hearing the words from the other side, were startled, subsequently finding it impossible.

However, when the person on the other side claimed to be a police officer, the staff immediately took action, quickly notifying metro security personnel.

Lin Fu, hearing his daughter’s call, was horrified, how could such a big city have someone committing murder with a knife!

Lin Xiaoyan led her parents to the restroom. She looked towards the station exit, instructing the two to hide in the restroom while she went to find the staff.

Lin Fu grabbed his daughter, "I’ll go with you!"

Lin Mu was also worried about her daughter. Though afraid, she was even more afraid that something would happen to her daughter.

"Mom, Dad, I’m just going to find the staff..."

Just as she said this, a call came in.

Lin Xiaoyan quickly answered; it was someone from the police station inquiring about the specifics.

"I just encountered several passengers; on them, when they were at the station exit, I saw a man roughly forty to fifty years old walking towards the crowd...

Then he drew a machete from his chest and started slashing at people..."

"In the scene, that man seemed crazy, slashing at everyone indiscriminately. He even ran into the metro station..."

Upon hearing Lin Xiaoyan’s words, the police officer on the call immediately instructed his colleague to call metro station staff.

Police cars quickly arrived at the metro station entrance.

Officers in the vehicles looked at the bustling metro entrance, their hearts sinking.

"A middle-aged man around forty to fifty, wearing a dark green jacket, has a knife in his chest, started attacking at the station exit, hurry and find him!" The officer who called Lin Xiaoyan quickly relayed the man’s description over the walkie-talkie.

At that moment, everyone was walking with their heads down, focused on their phones, heading out.

No one noticed a middle-aged man with a strange expression and malicious eyes staring at the crowd coming upstream.

He slowly unzipped his jacket, filled with resentment.

He only had ten years left until retirement!

Why? Why were they dismissing him?!!

He had sacrificed so much for the company, worked diligently for decades, why were they laying him off!

Now he was dismissed, what would happen to his family? His wife needed medication, and his child abroad needed a significant sum monthly...

Why?!

It’s unfair! Why are things so unfair to him!!!

The more the man thought, the angrier he became. He gripped the machete hidden in his chest tightly, drawing it out and slashing at the person who brushed past him...

"Ah!"

However, the officers hadn’t disembarked yet when screams were heard from not far away.

All officers quickly exited the cars, brandishing their weapons, running towards the station exit.

"Ah! Help!"

"Ah! Someone’s slashing people with a knife!"

...

At this moment, subway staff arrived, hastily evacuating the crowd, guiding everyone towards safe areas.

Security personnel stormed towards the man wielding electric batons and long sticks.

The middle-aged man’s eyes were already red; he fiercely swung the long machete in his hand, glaring tightly at those around him, slashing at them indiscriminately regardless of gender.

Several individuals had already been slashed and collapsed on the ground, clutching their wounds and groaning.

"Halt!"

"Put down the knife!"

Now, the security staff and police surrounded the man, both front and back.

When he saw the police, the man felt a flash of fear, but upon seeing the blood-dripping knife in his hand, his eyes turned vicious again.

No way out!

"Stay back!" The man waved the knife in his hand, simultaneously moving towards a woman on the ground beside him.

Police immediately detected the man’s intention, swiftly rushing over, signaling others to protect the injured...

"Ah!"

The man suddenly went berserk, swinging the machete at the police, running around crazily, giving neither police nor security personnel a chance to catch their breath.

At this moment, Lin Fu protected his wife and daughter, standing at the front and watching the chaotic scene at the exit above, feeling nervous and scared.

"Ah, an officer’s been slashed!" someone shouted loudly.

Lin Xiaoyan’s heart sank; she tightly held her mother’s hand, feeling it was a step too late.

Some officers had already drawn their firearms and aimed at the man, waiting for the order to kill him.

Lin Fu panicked; he glanced towards the restroom and rushed inside.

Upon reaching the janitor’s room, he burst in, spotting a stack of mops and brooms, grabbing them and running towards the station exit.

Lin Xiaoyan was shocked at her father’s actions, "Dad!"

Lin Mu was also terrified, "Old Lin! Where are you going!"

The two of them had no choice but to run after him.

"Make way! Make way!"

Lin Fu dashed into the crowd, shouting loudly.

Onlookers turned and saw a man carrying mops and brooms, thrilled, they made way immediately.

Some people stepped forward, grabbing a mop and charged towards the middle-aged man.

Security personnel saw the mops and brooms Lin Fu was holding and rushed over, each taking one, then started waving the mops and brooms at the middle-aged man.

"Sir, thank you for bringing these tools. Move back quickly, be safe!" The metro staff looked at Lin Fu gratefully, simultaneously shielding him as he retreated.

Lin Fu saw the knife knocked to the ground, felt relieved, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and smiled at the staff, "It’s fine, thank you for your hard work."

The staff smiled and nodded, feeling very grateful inside.

"Got him, beat him to death!"

"Hit him! You don’t want to live anymore, but you want to drag others down, truly a beast!"

"Beat him to death! Shameless thing, look at what you’ve done!"

"If you don’t want to live just jump off a building, why harm innocent people..."
