"The main goal of the Special Search Team tonight is to capture these criminals who are attempting to cause chaos and endanger public safety, and bring them to justice."
"I hope Mr. White Owl can consider his position and choices carefully. You’re welco to visit our headquarters anyti after, to discuss how to completely eradicate this major threat of the Noah Organization together."
Listening to the words of the other party, Cheng Jiashu’s mind was filled with many thoughts.
If official forces get involved, then the safety of the children in the orphanage should be guaranteed.
In such a situation, it’s not suitable for to force myself into the spotlight again.
Keeping a low profile and avoiding exposing my true identity and abilities is the wisest choice.
He pondered for a mont and replied vaguely.
"I’ll consider it."
Zhou Liang gave him a deep look, as if trying to morize his appearance.
Eventually, without saying more, Zhou Liang’s figure flickered and disappeared into the dark corridor like a ghost.
It seed he was going back to join the upcoming capture operation.
Cheng Jiashu stood alone in place, his brow furrowed.
Then quickly stepping, he walked to the window to observe carefully outside.
He saw many figures wearing black raincoats, moving with agility, surging over the wall like a tide, approaching the direction of the orphanage’s main building.
These people were professional and quick, appearing well-trained, and exuded a murderous aura.
Just as Cheng Jiashu clenched his fists, hesitating in his heart.
Bang!
Suddenly, a clear and piercing gunshot rang out from the distant street.
The sound was particularly jarring in the stormy night.
This was followed by more disorganized gunshots, exploding continuously like firecrackers.
The glaring flashlight beams darted frantically in the rainy night, weaving into a flickering net of light.
Vaguely, one could still hear soone shouting loudly.
"Don’t move, Special Search Team enforcent!"
"All lay down your weapons and surrender imdiately!"
The urgent sound of sirens also approached rapidly, sharply piercing the night sky.
Soon, the commotion outside grew larger, quickly devolving into chaos.
The elderly security guard at the orphanage ca running out from the duty room, stumbling and confused.
Clearly, he was so frightened by the sudden change that he almost had a heart attack.
Upstairs, the children and staff who had been asleep were also awakened by the loud noises.
One sleepy head after another peeked out from behind the windows of various rooms, looking fearfully at the chaotic scene outside.
Cheng Jiashu swiftly returned to the dormitory area, shouting loudly to calmly reassure the frightened people, telling them to stay safe indoors and not to run around.
At the sa ti, he was also closely monitoring the situation outside.
Judging from the density of gunfire and the direction of the shouting, the battle was mainly concentrated on the periphery of the orphanage and near the walls.
It could vaguely be seen that two forces were fiercely exchanging fire.
One side should be the combat personnel from the Special Search Team.
They were agile, well-equipped, and seed to have set up ambushes in the streets surrounding the orphanage.
At this mont, they were forming an encirclent from multiple directions around the n in black, waiting for the other side to make a move and fall into the net.
As for the mbers of the Noah Organization, although they had nurical superiority and were exceptionally capable in combat.
Under the fierce attacks and encirclent of the Special Search Team, they were gradually falling into disarray.
After all, this was East City District, the ho ground of the official law enforcent agencies.
After a period of intense fighting, the n in black seed to receive the order to retreat and fled in different directions.
The team mbers of the Special Search Team pursued like keen-scented hunting dogs, relentlessly.
The sounds of gunfire and shouting spread from around the orphanage to more distant areas.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Jiashu let out a slight sigh of relief.
At least, the children at Chenxi Ho were temporarily safe.
However, his vision was still shrouded in a thick fog.
Everything that happened tonight felt indescribably bizarre.
The Noah Organization first tracked him ticulously, then assembled such a large number of people to surround the small orphanage.
If their goal was rely to deal with him and these defenseless children, this was too much fanfare.
Perhaps, as that masked man had said.
The Noah Organization was trying to capture a high-level mber who had defected with their core secrets.
That is, the mysterious person who passed him the note warning of danger.
Cheng Jiashu frowned in thought.
Could it be...
The Noah Organization found out about the incident of the director of Chenxi Ho being killed and mistakenly believed that he was an accomplice of "White Owl."
So, they tracked him all this ti, hoping to find clues to the hidden "White Owl" from him?
And that real "White Owl," while hiding in the orphanage, also discovered his uniqueness.
That was why he warned him about the Noah Organization’s retaliation in such a way?
If that was indeed the case, then everything made sense,
but then, turning the thought around, sothing seed off.
That White Owl had yet to reveal himself until now.
If the Special Search Team hadn’t arrived in ti to stop the Noah Organization’s attack tonight.
Wouldn’t he have beco an innocent scapegoat, inexplicably dragged into this whirlpool?
Thinking it over, Cheng Jiashu felt that it would be best for him to lay low for the ti being and not get involved in these murky waters.
Observing the situation before making the next decision.
As long as the Noah Organization couldn’t find him, and the Special Search Team continued to relentlessly pursue, troubling them.
In a few days, unless they’re completely foolish, they should realize that he had nothing to do with that so-called "White Owl."
By then, things would naturally quiet down.
Thinking of this, Cheng Jiashu’s mind returned to the "midnight rendezvous" ntioned on that mysterious note.
His heart couldn’t help but again swell with intense curiosity and doubt.
Finally, the desire to explore the unknown truth outweighed his caution.
He decided to brave the downpour and go personally to the abandoned lighthouse by the sea to take a look.
Regardless, he had to unveil the layers of fog and see clearly who was behind all this manipulations!
Cheng Jiashu made up his mind and quietly moved to a corner where no one was paying attention while the outside chaos had not completely subsided yet.
He took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly shone with an unusual light.
Buzz—
A low and strange humming sound arose out of thin air.
The space in front of him centered on his right eye, twisted visibly to the naked eye.
Air no longer remained calm, and even the light seed to be drawn by an invisible force, converging, collapsing towards that point.
Forming a black vortex, constantly collapsing inward.
The vortex spun like a living thing, first expanding fiercely, nearly sucking in everything around it.
Then it abruptly contracted, enveloping Cheng Jiashu with irresistible force.
His figure seed to be forcibly twisted and pulled by this force, being consud by the black entrance piece by piece, inch by inch.
The next mont, Cheng Jiashu had completely vanished from the spot as if he had never been there.
Only leaving a barely noticeable spatial fluctuation in the air, quickly smoothed by the wind and rain outside and the sound of gunfire.
In the depths of the corridor, in a dark corner where light couldn’t reach.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning cut through, faintly revealing the silhouette of a figure clad in a raincoat.
That figure had no breath, no heartbeat, no trace of life signals, like an abandoned cold statue.
Yet at this mont, he suddenly opened his eyes, gazing in the direction Cheng Jiashu disappeared, muttering to himself:
"So your ability is this interesting, no wonder you can stay calmly in the midst of being surrounded..."
The figure slowly raised his hand and gently removed a wafer-thin micro patch from his throat.
It was a sophisticated voice-changing device.
The one who had just engaged in conversation with Cheng Jiashu was Fang Cheng.
