"I'll do it, you call for backup imdiately," Luo Zheng quickly shouted, opening the car window and reaching out. He saw a brazen assassin poking his head out, holding a shotgun, which made Luo Zheng furious. He aid without hesitation, but due to the car being a bit unstable, aiming was difficult, so he didn't shoot imdiately.
"Steady," Shi Feng shouted, pulling out his phone.
The car soon steadied, driving straight ahead. Seizing the opportunity, Luo Zheng quickly fired. Under the streetlights at night, Luo Zheng saw the target's body roll out of the car, the shotgun falling to the ground, and the distance between both parties widened. He sat back and asked Shi Qian, "Do you want to take them out?"
"Did you hit them just now?" Shi Qian asked in surprise, suddenly thinking of sothing, shouting excitedly, "The distance is about two hundred ters, both parties moving, and it's at night with poor lighting, yet you hit them? Let's go crazy, how do we do it?"
"No need, they've already turned tail and run," Shi Feng angrily cursed.
"Those bastards, turn around and pursue them," Luo Zheng coldly commanded.
Shi Feng wanted to stop him; if anything happened to Shi Qian, who would they get the Heavenly Pearl from? But seeing Luo Zheng's determined expression, he swallowed his words and prepared for battle. He hurriedly urged his n via phone to co over as backup, staring fiercely in the direction of the fleeing assassins.
The group turned around, taking the wounded person and the shotgun with them. When taking the person, they only slightly reduced speed, directly opening the door and grabbing him while moving, with practiced skill. Seeing this, Luo Zheng's face darkened, coldly stating, "These people are no ordinary; they must have received military training."
"They've trained in a camp for three years; I found this out during the interrogation after capturing one of them. Their skills resemble those of assassins. Twin Gate actually learned assassination skills—my teacher's ambition isn't small," Shi Qian coldly stated, his face stern.
"If they master both stealing skills and assassination, then these people are quite dangerous," Shi Feng pondered, "I must report this imdiately and set up a special task force. Our city bureau alone probably can't handle this. Brother, we've got work ahead. How many more days will you stay in Beijing?"
"Leave after the New Year, a few days should be enough," Luo Zheng pondered aloud.
"That's good. You must help these days," Shi Feng seriously said.
"Sure, no problem," Luo Zheng laughed, but his face showed a heavy contemplation. The matter involved Jackson, hinting at signs of spiraling out of control. It seed he needed to report this urgently. As long as Jackson was involved, things wouldn't be small. He unconsciously took out his phone.
"Still awake this late? Did sothing happen?" Lan Xue's voice sounded on the phone.
"Yes, the Heavenly Pearl Case involves Jackson. He's hired Twin Gate to steal the Heavenly Pearl, but soone else got there first. This person has agreed to collaborate with us and is en route to the city bureau but encountered an assassination. It's not a big issue. Jackson, that bastard, wasn't sent to the military court and continues to commit evil, seems trusted indeed. We might not have peace," Luo Zheng hurriedly said.
"Got it, I'll report imdiately," Lan Xue quickly replied, "Do you need backup?"
"Not for now, let's see how things develop," Luo Zheng answered, hanging up the phone.
The three sat silently in the car, when Shi Feng patted the driving Shi Qian and asked, "Where did you hide the Heavenly Pearl? Is it safe?"
"Don't worry, it's safe. Should I take you to get it right away?" Shi Qian readily replied.
"Why not use it to blackmail us now?" Shi Feng curiously retorted.
"We're cooperating now, have to show so goodwill, right? Twin Gate tried to assassinate you so you'll surely investigate thoroughly. In that case, why do I need the Heavenly Pearl? Better to hand it to you as a good basis for cooperation. Trust we'll work very well together, right?" Shi Qian laughed.
"You are quite shrewd, so where is it?" Shi Feng promptly asked.
"Can't tell, who knows if your phone is being monitored?" Shi Qian quickly said.
"What do you an? Playing ?" Shi Feng flared up, cursing bluntly.
"Co on, teasing you would be asking for trouble. Let finish," Shi Qian quickly explained, "The item is hidden safely. I'll take you to fetch it. For security's sake, bring more of your n, let's et sowhere, and then we'll go together."
"That's more like it, let's head to the city bureau first," Shi Feng cursed, quickly dialing a number, and when connected, shouted, "The serious cris squad, quickly wait at the entrance, send a team of Ard Police to assist."
After hanging up, Shi Feng looked at Shi Qian and cursed, "Kid, you're full of tricks but still clever enough. If you hand over the Heavenly Pearl to the police and cooperate with us to take down 'Twin Gate,' I won't mind saying a good word to get you a few years less and talking to the prison so at least you won't suffer inside."
"What? Still arrested?" Shi Qian shouted with a painful face.
"Why? Unhappy? Committing a cri ans punishnt, it's a righteous thing unless," Shi Feng chuckled, pointing at Shi Qian continuing, "Unless you beco our informant, then I can vouch for you."
"Nah, better lock up," Shi Qian quickly said.
"Don't think your stealing skill makes you uncontainable. Fine, you'll see how I deal with you," Shi Feng cursed angrily, "You missed the chance, don't bla for being harsh."
"Mix with police? Forget it, it's a taboo of the sect," Shi Qian refused without hesitation.
"Such strict rules, still talking about world rules in this age," Shi Feng grumbled unhappily.
"The world may not exist dostically but overseas it still does, especially among the old faction. You wouldn't know, stealing Heavenly Pearl is a big sin but just a theft accusation. Voluntarily handing it in counts as surrender, right? Cooperating with you to capture Twin Gate also has rits, right? At worst, lock for a year, like a vacation," Shi Qian casually said.
"Heard of Dark Hell?" Luo Zheng suddenly asked.
"Yes, why?" Shi Qian paused, surprised to shout, "You wouldn't, right? That's a Sam Country prison, you wouldn't throw there, right? Or do you have a similar dostic prison? Gentlen, it's just theft, it's not worth such drastic actions, right?"
Luo Zheng earnestly watched Shi Qian but found no trace of panic, he seed unaffected by the ntion of the prison. Internally, he beca alert, noting it silently, his face unchanged as he smiled, "That won't happen."
"Dark Prison, what's that about?" Shi Feng curiously asked.
"A subterranean prison where daylight is absent," Luo Zheng casually said, contemplating deeply.
