Chapter 286 Captain Han (one)

Seven Years later.

“Someone, save my daughter.” A woman cried as she collapsed on the ground. She had come to kindergarten school to pick up her child but who would have thought that the terrorist would hold all the children and teachers hostage inside the school?

“Mam, please try to understand. You have to cooperate with the authorities, “The policeman said. Although it was the police’s responsibility to save civilians from terrorists, the emotional parents weren’t understanding that behaviour like this was putting a burden on the police. They didn’t know to appease first emotional parents or raging terrorists who had kept students and teachers hostage inside.

The woman held his collar and cried, “You are a police officer. Why can’t you save my daughter?”

“Madam, we are not trained for dealing with terrorists. The special unit is dispatched. They will reach soon, “The police officer said and took the parents away from the scene.

The terrorists were making threats that if the arrangements for taking them away from there were not made, they would kill students. They even shot one teacher to prove a point and the higher-ups asked the police to agree to their demands and keep students and teachers safe.

The other police officer said something in his walkie-talkie and began communicating with other officers who were overseeing the situation away from the scene.

From the other side of the building, one could see a couple of people dressed in black uniforms, the badge showing that they are members of a special unit, climbing the kindergarten building. In no time they were inside the building. After a gruesome training, the best among the best were selected to join this special unit of the police.

“Captain, two men spotted a metre away.”

The captain who was leading the team raised two fingers and gestured his team to still for a moment. As the team hid in the dark room, he took a spot behind the door and before the other person could find anything wrong, he shot their head and moved forward.

The team scattered all over the upper floor from where they could easily see the students and teachers held hostage by a couple of terrorists.

They made a mental strategy to scatter and set their targets.

A child, who raised his head, saw several other men in black uniforms holding guns but before he could open his mouth, the captain placed a finger on his mouth gesturing to the boy to keep quiet. The boy nodded his head as if he was watching the scene in awe.

Before the terrorists could react, the Captain and his team had shot all of the terrorists in view.

The special officers freed the children and teachers and began ushering them out of the building safely.

The chaos began when the hidden terrorist started shooting. The children cried, and the teachers shouted but the officers ushering them out didn’t let them look back and took them away from the scene.

One shot targeted the captain but he skillfully dodged it. He hid behind the pillar and shot the terrorist in the back of his head. The dead body fell on his feet but he walked upon the dead holding his machine gun to find more to kill.

“All clear!” The special team announced when all of them were dead.

The captain looked at the building that was raided by other police officers and reported to his senior, “This is Captain Han reporting, the building is all cleared. I repeat the building is all cleared.”

Captain Han had yet to disconnect when he heard his teammate sending a signal.

“Captain, one ran from the back door.”

He said into the walkie-talkie, “Captain Han speaking. One terrorist alive.”

His senior quickly responded, “Captain Han, we need the terrorist alive at any cost. This is higher up orders.”

“Alright. On it, sir.”

The special team took their position to catch that terrorist.

“He may or may not be armed, Captain, ” a team member said.

The captain didn’t say anything in reply and walked to the high window from where he could see the man running away. He took out his pistol and pointed at the running terrorist.

“Captain, higher-ups want him alive.” Someone from the team reminded him.

“Come on, this is Captain Han, ” Lieutenant Wang, who completed his duty on the other side, came to see the progress of this site. When he saw the Captain pointing at the terrorist and his teammate suggesting against it, he couldn’t help but say, ” His Target is never wrong. He will shoot his leg. Why waste time by running after terrorist? Just disable him and catch him. It’s not like he needed his legs when he will be executed.”

“Will it work?” The other officer asked. “The higher-ups want the bastard alive.”

“It always works, “Lieutenant Wang said. “You are new. You will learn Captain’s way soon.”

“You are speaking as if you know the Captain well, Lieutenant Wang.”

“Captain and I have been together since our university days. It’s been seven long years. We got recruited in Swat together. We are transferred each time to the same team. Of course, we know each other well. After all, who doesn’t know their nightmare well?”

“Lieutenant sounds bitter, ” Someone else laughed.

Another cop came running and went to Captain Han and informed him, “Captain, he is caught. Just a bullet in the leg. He will survive.”

Captain Han turned his gaze to look at the gossip buddy in his team and gave a sharp look. His brown Phoenix eyes were giving a warning to all of them and one by one, the cops stood in line in a straight posture as if he was training them on the training ground. He pointed at Lieutenant Wang and said, “You will train officers tonight.”

“What… why? I was just praising you, “His mate said in horror. “Come on, Han Zixin. You are a moody bastard. I have been tolerating your moody-ass police academy.”
