The night was deep, yet it couldn't overshadow Beijing's bustling cityscape. The three walked back together; Shi Qian agreed to go back to the police station, so Shi Feng was too lazy to put on handcuffs. On the way, Shi Feng kept interrogating Shi Qian on how he had stolen the Heavenly Pearl. Shi Qian remained silent, slyly redirecting the conversation towards Luo Zheng, attempting to probe his identity. However, Shi Feng knew little about Luo Zheng, and Luo Zheng himself remained tight-lipped. Shi Qian gleaned no information.
Unknowingly, the three arrived at the school gate and ca to an SUV. Shi Feng unlocked the car and walked towards the driver's seat. Suddenly, Luo Zheng furrowed his brow, cautiously scanned the surroundings; the streets were empty, cold wind slowly blowing, a thin layer of snow on the ground. Luo Zheng said in a serious tone, "Shi Feng, wait a mont, don't get in the car."
"What's wrong?" Shi Feng asked, puzzled. Seeing Luo Zheng's troubled expression, he grew wary, drew his gun, and surveyed the area, body slightly crouched, hidden on one side of the car, eyes sharp as electricity, continuously searching the surroundings but found nothing amiss. He couldn't help but ask, "What did you find?"
"Let's take a look first..." Luo Zheng replied casually, suddenly catching a glimpse of a dark flash behind a distant tree. He was startled, hurriedly shouted, "Careful, get down." He then tackled Shi Qian to the ground, drawing his pistol.
Upon hearing the warning, Shi Feng quickly crouched down. Suddenly, a crisp "clang!" of tal echoed. He raised his head, saw an iron arrow lodged in the car, punching straight through the body. Astonished, he quickly turned to look, discovering a person hidden behind the tree, charging towards him, a small hand crossbow in hand.
"Damn it." Shi Feng was enraged, firing at the target imdiately, but missed twice. The opponent moved swiftly, closing in on him in a blink, hand crossbow raised as if to shoot, prompting Shi Feng to roll frantically while continuing to fire.
"Bang bang bang!" The magazine emptied, yet Shi Feng felt he hadn't hit the target, greatly alard; his body kept rolling, only to find the enemy closing in within three ters. Furious, he executed a carp leap forward, about to engage in hand-to-hand combat, only to see a figure flash before him, clashing with the opponent.
Upon closer inspection, Shi Feng saw it was Luo Zheng. He glanced behind the car, noticing Shi Qian hadn't fled but leaned against the car seat, secretly relieved. However, he was shocked to spot three iron arrows stuck in the ground, clearly the assailant's target wasn't him but Shi Qian, otherwise he wouldn't have survived earlier.
A person who can retaliate against close-range gunfire is extraordinary, Shi Feng thought, quickly looking over to find Luo Zheng delivering a punch to the enemy's stomach, sending him flying like a ragdoll, spitting blood. At that mont, another black shadow erged from sowhere, wielding a crossbow. After a click of the trigger, Luo Zheng flew back, taking cover by the car.
The black shadow picked up the injured person, fleeing wildly; Shi Feng only managed to glimpse their appearance, realizing they resembled the injured enemy. His face changed drastically, guessing sothing, he roared in anger, wanting to chase them down, but Luo Zheng quickly shouted, "Don't pursue, be careful of traps. We'll deal with them later."
"Are you okay?" Shi Feng asked, coming over concernedly.
"I'm fine, didn't expect soone to follow us here." Luo Zheng said coldly, eyes flickering with a murderous glint, turned to Shi Qian, asking, "Do you know them?"
"I don't know them, but they're using my sect's skills. Their appearance is ordinary, likely mbers of Twin Gate. Seems my uncle might have discovered sothing; they're here to kill ." Shi Qian said grimly.
"Let's go back to the station first." Shi Feng quickly suggested, escorting Shi Qian back to the police station, securing the Heavenly Pearl was crucial; Shi Feng couldn't risk any negligence.
"Wait a mont." Luo Zheng urgently called, seeing Shi Feng's puzzled face. Without ti to explain further, he quickly crawled under the car, observed inside, soon discovered a bomb installed in the engine area, a rcury balance trigger chanism. As long as the rcury remains balanced, there's no problem; once unbalanced, it would explode instantly. Luo Zheng's face changed dramatically, hurriedly crawling out, said, "There's a bomb, can't move."
"Damn it, can it be disard?" Shi Feng angrily asked.
"It'll take ti, I'm worried there's not enough. Let's deal with it later; let's withdraw first, flag down a car." Luo Zheng said cautiously as he watched the surroundings, hands tightly gripping his gun, moving forward.
"Alright then." Shi Feng glanced at Shi Qian, relaxed a bit seeing Shi Qian catch up.
The three walked over ten ters; suddenly, sharp tire screeches echoed ahead, car lights visible from afar, clearly soone had chased them down. Luo Zheng's face changed drastically, quickly assessed the terrain; there was no place for concealnt, only one option left—swiftly retreat to the school, hold position and await aid.
At this mont, Shi Qian urgently said, "They've caught up; we should get a car and escape."
"No way, how could a policeman steal a car?" Shi Feng quickly rejected.
Luo Zheng saw a car parked by the roadside, thought for a mont, said, "How long will it take?"
"Just three seconds." Shi Qian confidently replied.
"Alright, hurry, Shi Feng, special circumstances call for special actions, cover us." Luo Zheng saw three cars rushing over, imdiately made a decision; no point hiding if there's nowhere to hide. He raised his gun, took aim, quickly fired at the approaching small car, his face ignited with the will to battle, as if returned to the battlefield.
Shi Feng wasn't stubborn, swiftly aid and fired, bullets struck the car, sparks flying. The small car quickly stopped, soone opened the door, dismounted from the other side, brandished their guns and fired back. At this mont, Shi Qian shouted, "Quick, get in the car."
Luo Zheng turned to look; the car was already started. Shi Qian indeed lived up to his exceptional "stealing skill," not only opened the car door but also started the car, as fast as if he had the keys, delighted, swiftly pulled Shi Feng into the car.
Shi Qian didn't wait for everyone to settle, closed the windows, floored the accelerator, dashed forward less than a ter, the car spun a sharp 180-degree tail drift, then shot forward explosively. Luo Zheng felt like the car was a roller coaster, unexpectedly, the opponent's driving skills were so superb, his admiration heightened, exclaid joyfully, "Well done!"
"Hold on tight!" Shi Qian shouted.
"Only now you tell us? What took you so long?" Shi Feng retorted, quickly closed the doors, glanced back, saw the assailants also getting into their cars, pursuing them, enraged, cursed, "These bastards, drive steadily, let deal with these bastards."
