"Have you not seen Captain Chu before?" Ling Chen smiled as he glanced at Chu Guoxiong and spoke.
"Mr. Ling, are you familiar with Xingda?" Chu Guoxiong strode ahead, Ling Chen by his side, followed leisurely by two police officers.
"Not bad, I have a good relationship with your Captain Xia. Huh? These two also look quite unfamiliar!"
"Yes, these two have just been transferred from the local police station." Chu Guoxiong’s pace faltered slightly before returning to normal.
"That explains it!" Ling Chen chuckled heartily, "If it weren’t for Captain Xia going to Beijing this morning to transfer a case, I guess she would have co looking for herself."
Chu Guoxiong nodded without much conversation, entered the parking lot, briskly started the car, and the vehicle smoothly rged into traffic.
"Man, are we going the wrong way?" Ling Chen, sitting in the backseat, turned and asked Chu Guoxiong next to him.
"No mistake, just up ahead and turn, and it’s Xingda."
"Really heading to Xingda?" Ling Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I’m just worried it’s easy to go in but hard to co out!"
"You’re not a murderer, what are you afraid of?"
"I’m worried that it would be easy for you to go in but hard to co out." Ling Chen, with a keen interest, scrutinized the stern-faced man beside him and grinned, "Impersonating a police officer will land you in prison!"
Chu Guoxiong’s expression darkened, his eyes filled with lethal intent, his body slightly leaned forward as he swiftly raised his hand in a chopping motion towards Ling Chen’s throat.
Ling Chen, already alert to his movents, tilted his neck to dodge the strike with exquisite timing, his right hand, like a Spirit Snake, imdiately coiled around the opponent’s arm, reaching for the back of his head, pulling harshly and leaning back, his bent knee thrusting forward.
Chu Guoxiong evidently didn’t expect Ling Chen to be able to counterattack so fluidly in the cramped space of a car’s backseat. By the ti he reacted, it was too late, only feeling his nose go numb, sour, and warm as tears mixed with snot and blood were all knocked out.
The policeman in the passenger seat also reacted, quickly turning around and without hesitation, drawing his gun to shoot!
Ling Chen swiftly captured the officer’s wrist, lifting it upwards, causing the shot to miss and strike through the roof of the car. Chu Guoxiong, having recovered, fiercely elbowed him in the chest!
Staying in the car had beco impossible. The space in the backseat of the police car was originally quite small, the two n were not of a small build, and with the copilot glaring nacingly, Ling Chen decisively took the elbow strike, shifted his weight, and burst open the car door, tumbling out.
As soon as the two in the backseat started fighting, the officer driving steered the car into a nearby alley, where almost no one could be seen.
After rolling on the ground several tis, Wolf Kiss already poised, Ling Chen did not wait for the car to stop and quickly flashed to the rich man’s car door. Wolf Kiss gently probed, deftly slashing the man’s throat.
With a screech, an ergency stop, and the pungent sll of rubber arising, Chu Guoxiong with a dark face got out of the car, glancing at his incredulous-looking partner in the passenger seat, slightly raised his eyebrows, and said, "How did you figure it out?"
"It’s nothing much, after all, I’m too familiar with Xingda. You could have impersonated anyone, but you chose to impersonate soone from Xingda."
Chu Guoxiong shook his head, "As far as I know, your familiarity with Xingda people is limited to Xia Mutong and a few of her deputies, and you have never even t the deputy head of Xingda."
"Indeed." Ling Chen nodded in acknowledgnt, "Your preparation was indeed good, I’m not very familiar with the people from Xingda, but I do know that the deputy head of Xingda is a stern-faced man nad Chu Guoxiong. The police badge is real too, so presumably, the real Chu Guoxiong has been duped by you, hasn’t he?"
Chu Guoxiong subconsciously touched his face, still with a calm deanor, and asked: "The identification is real, and the appearance matches, why can you still spot a flaw?"
"It’s simple, because Xia Mutong just talked to on the phone this morning, and the so-called trip to Beijing was just a test for you."
Unexpectedly, the impostor Chu Guoxiong was not angry, but just shook his head and muttered: "The work is still not ticulous enough!"
This turned out to be an adorable person who could always reflect on his mistakes at work, which was always admirable.
"Just from that one point you noticed the flaw?"
"Not entirely, if it weren’t for your face, why would I think of testing you?" Ling Chen seed sowhat proud, smiling and wiping his forehead: "The human skin mask on your face is indeed exquisite, but it has one defect."
"What defect?" Chu Guoxiong’s eyes revealed an eager desire, though his face remained impassive.
"It lacks human touch!"
The impostor policeman in the driver’s seat suddenly beca furious: "You cheeky brat! How dare you insult !"
"What I said is the truth. No matter how exquisite a human skin mask is, it is still an inanimate object and cannot display the changing expressions of a person’s face. If one observes carefully, differences can still be detected."
Chu Guoxiong nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly reached up to his earlobe and gently pinched it a few tis, gradually lifting off a thin mask as delicate as cicada wings.
"Now that you’ve revealed your true face, let’s talk about your background. Whether I die at your hands or you fall at mine, I presu neither of us wants to die confused."
"There is a Thousand-faced Fox on the assassin list, do you know about it?"
"Yes, I had the fortune to et him not long ago." Ling Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly, saying: "Are you also from the assassin list?"
"Hmph, is the assassin list that impressive? In this world, many people simply disdain to compete for that silly ranking, but that does not an they lack the ability."
Ling Chen quite agreed with this. Considering the masters he had recently encountered from the Heaven and Earth Dragon and Tiger Four Rankings, picking any two of them, they were not sothing the people on the assassin list could handle. Indeed, true masters disdain to be on such rankings, and moreover, as an assassin, pursuing profit is acceptable, but disputing over fa is foolish. Without rankings, it is even more covert, making tasks easier to handle.
"So, what do you an by ntioning this Thousand-faced Fox?" Ling Chen was sowhat speechless.
"Because we both specialize in disguise. Also, I don’t mind telling you, my na is Bai Huanjun."
"Never heard of you." Ling Chen shook his head straightforwardly; he was telling the truth.
Bai Huanjun didn’t get angry, his brows and eyes moved, saying: "Whether you know it or not, your end will be the sa. I just don’t want you to die too confused."
Gosh! Was this guy a Monk before? Speaking with a bit of a provocative tone.
"Enough with the long talk, why do you want to kill ?"
Bai Huanjun was stunned for a mont, then suddenly scratched his head like a child, a hint of embarrassnt appearing between his brows and eyes.
"Well, you see, I... am short on money."
