Chapter 125: Chu Chen Still Has a Trump Card?!

At Joanna's command, all the Anti-Terrorism Unit members standing by immediately sprang into action!

With five armored vehicles clearing the way in front, they surrounded the entire Yinchaochang so tightly that not even Water could leak through!

At the same time, over a dozen Armed Helicopters hovered above the roof.

Amidst bursts of roaring sounds.

Countless operatives wearing black special operations gear jumped from the aircraft one after another, using Flying Claw descent lines to move from the roof downward, preparing to seize the opportunity to break through the windows and enter!

Seeing this scene, the onlookers exclaimed in shock once again, one after another condemning the official approach!

They threw all kinds of trash inside the police cordon to vent their dissatisfaction!

Aside from the onlookers, all the reporters on the scene were also facing camera lenses, reporting on the official actions with righteous indignation!

"These people are absolutely crazy. Knowing full well that there are hostages inside, they are still ordering the Anti-Terrorism Unit to launch a full-scale assault on the Yinchaochang!"

"I really can't believe they actually ended up adopting such extreme measures; this violates humanitarianism!"

"This kind of behavior will definitely be condemned by the international community!"

Due to the official's radical actions, the entire scene was in a complete uproar!

Voices of opposition rose one after another.

But even so, it still did not make them stop the attack!

At this very moment, the situation in the live stream room was the same; all kinds of comments were pouring in incessantly, and many viewers were worried about Chu Chen's safety:

【My god, are these people preparing to launch a full-scale assault?】

【Are they crazy? Not even caring about the hostages anymore?】

【It's over!】

【You all are thinking about this too simply. The public opinion impact caused by this matter is truly too great. If the officials don't take measures, it will directly lead to a significant drop in the public's trust in state power!】

【That's right, especially with the situation of the hostages turning against them, the impact caused is even more severe. Under these circumstances, not taking tough measures is really unjustifiable...】

【At a time like this, the hostages are no longer the primary factor to consider. It sounds cruel, but this is reality...】

At the same time!

Inside the Yinchaochang!

Upon learning that the Anti-Terrorism Unit was about to launch a full-scale assault, all the hostages had long since fallen into chaos, and everyone was extremely panicked!

After all, they were not real criminals.

Nor did they have a heart as strong as Chu Chen's!

If they hadn't been chosen as hostages, they might never have encountered such a thing in their entire lives!

Right now, these people had absolutely no idea what to do.

Looking at the restless crowd in the exhibition hall, Karl asked Chu Chen: "BOSS, what should we do?"

Chu Chen did not answer him, walking straight toward the crowd, finally stopping in front of a little girl shivering in a corner, and dragged her to the center of the exhibition hall.

The little girl looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old.

Due to excessive fright, her complexion looked very poor, pale without a trace of color.

The next second, Chu Chen took a mobile phone out of his pocket and handed it to her:

"You should know who to call. I'll give you one minute. If they haven't retreated within the allotted time, I will shoot you dead. Whether you live or die, make your choice!"

After saying this, Chu Chen decisively pressed the timer button on his watch.

In an instant, the numbers on the stopwatch changed rapidly!

Due to the urgency of time, the moment she received the phone, the little girl did not hesitate at all and dialed a number directly!

Before long, the call connected.

A steady, middle-aged male voice came from the other end: "Hello?"

"Dad... Dad... it's me! Emily! I... I've been kidnapped... I'm at the Roma Yinchaochang... the situation is very dangerous, please don't let them come in, I beg you... come save me quickly..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the phone in her hand was snatched away by Chu Chen:

"If those soldiers dare to attack, you will never see her again..."

The next second, without waiting for a sound to come from the other end of the phone, Chu Chen hung up!

Seeing this scene, both the hostages at the scene and the viewers in the live stream were stunned!

【Holy crap, what is this little girl's background?】

【Brothers, I feel like things might not be as simple as we thought!】

【How did he know this little girl's identity is unusual?】

【Yeah!】

【My god, I really didn't expect that Chu Chen would still have such a trump card! It's too incredible!】

【Good heavens! Could it be that he knows the identity of every single hostage like the back of his hand?】

【This live stream is truly too exciting!】

【I was scared to death just now, I never imagined there would be a twist later on!】

Five minutes later!

When all the units had finished assembling, Joanna took a deep breath!

However, just as she was about to give the order for the reserve units to launch the assault, a group of mysterious people in black suddenly boarded her command vehicle!

"Team Leader Joanna, hello."

"Who are you?" Joanna asked suspiciously.

"We are from the Secret Intelligence Bureau."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man in the lead wearing sunglasses flashed his credentials while speaking in a deep voice.

The Secret Intelligence Bureau is the most mysterious special operations department in Italy, rarely appearing in public.

Having served as Team Leader of the Crisis Management Team for so many years, Joanna had only heard of their name.

But she had never dealt with them before!

Even now, she did not know which organization this department belonged to, or who they took orders from!

However, upon seeing these men in black, Joanna knew that something big must be about to happen.

"What is your business here?" Joanna asked.

"Please issue an order immediately to cancel the operation and have all assault units withdraw at once," the man in black said.

Joanna frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Whose order is this?"

"Sorry, I cannot disclose that. Issue the order, or you will be arrested immediately for endangering public safety."

"Can I make a phone call?"

"No," the man in black with sunglasses said again, expressionless.

The next second, just as the two sides were at a stalemate, Joanna's cell phone suddenly rang.

Hearing the sound, she pressed the Bluetooth earpiece in her ear and answered the call: "Hello? Commissioner? Yes..."

As she spoke, Joanna glanced at the people from the Secret Intelligence Bureau, then nodded: "Alright, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, the man in black with sunglasses spoke again: "Well, Team Leader Joanna?"

Looking at the man in black with sunglasses, Joanna nodded: "Fine, please wait a moment."

After saying this, she immediately walked to the command console, picked up the walkie-talkie, and said: "All units, please pay attention. The operation is cancelled. Everyone, withdraw beyond the cordon immediately!"
