Chapter 1393 - 1317: The Advantage Is Ours
The bubble tea kiosk on Binhe Road is about 10 square meters, with two employees inside bustling around like spinning tops. The eaves extend outwards, providing a temporary spot for guests to rest and wait.
Jiang Yuan and Liu Jinghui are positioned on the west side by the river, while a young couple is on the east side by the river, with the kiosk and two bubble tea employees in between.
Mu Zhiyang signaled to Wen Ming, and they circled around from the left and the right.
Both of them are armed. It’s not difficult to shoot the small-time hoodlums on the opposite side, but the key is to make sure no one is caught in the line of fire. Ideally, they should form a pincer movement from the left and right, emptying two handguns to flatten even two bears.
Mu Zhiyang also disengaged the safety lock.
At this moment, there’s no room for the game of two cops versus one suspect when the advantage is clearly ours.
As two armed officers, Mu Zhiyang and Wen Ming don’t even consider close combat a viable option. While the enemy situation is unclear, it’s confirmed that the opposite party is a suspect in a fatal beating case. Not using their guns would be giving the adversaries a chance to seize them.
Even with Jiang Yuan backing him up, Mu Zhiyang wouldn’t act recklessly, let alone if he were executing the mission alone.
Since they are armed and the opponent poses a substantial threat, the choice actually lies with the opponent. If they resist arrest, they get shot; if they kneel and beg for mercy, there’s a way out.
One step, two steps...
Mu Zhiyang maintained a pace similar to Wen Ming’s, rounding the kiosk from both sides and simultaneously shouting, "Police! Hands on your head, squat down!"
As Mu Zhiyang spoke, his finger was already on the trigger.
