Even though it seed like they could get close to him, with Lin Chuan's skills, catching him wouldn't be a quick task. He refused to give in, suddenly turning the steering wheel left. He felt considerable resistance, but he didn't give up.
The assassin on that side was desperately trying to maintain direction, preventing Lin Chuan from crashing through.
But the other side wasn't prepared, felt a lightness on the right, and before they realized what happened, Lin Chuan suddenly turned again. Using his car's force and the help from the right-side vehicle, he forcefully crashed left!
These assassins could only resort to modified cars found on the black market, but their exteriors weren't modified.
Not to ntion there were very few such cars, and the dostic black market was not as developed as abroad, making these cars even harder to co by.
So Lin Chuan pushed through bravely, squeezing out a path amid their aggressive blockade! The car crushing Lin Chuan even ended up crashing into its approaching ally!
Seeing the slightly chaotic convoy behind, Lin Chuan smirked. The scene had indeed been thrilling, but now, if they didn't give up tracking him, he could definitely reach the ambush site before they caught up!
After a bout of chaos, the assassins pursued again.
But as they got closer to Lin Chuan, they saw many headlights ahead and on the left. Though it wasn't clear if they were police cars, a sense of foreboding filled them.
Lin Chuan followed instructions via earpiece, driving to a fast-food restaurant to et the waiting officers. His safety was assured; now the focus was on catching all the assassins!
The police's efficiency was lacking in so ways, but in planning, they were precise.
Don't assu they plan to block the assassins' cars both tis, yet the ease and difficulty must be considered.
Last ti, they trapped them on an outer road with only one path, but now, within the city—with its many roads and lanes accessible by cars—defense against every route was impossible.
But ultimately, Lin Chuan saw the cars had nowhere to escape and aid for a storefront with large glass windows, intending to crash through and abandon their vehicles for a chance to escape under cover.
The police captain standing beside Lin Chuan also showed signs of tension.
Then suddenly, Lin Chuan heard a faint sound above, and simultaneously, one of the assassins' cars had a tire blown!
The incident happened so suddenly, and the car moved too fast to react, spinning on the road!
The sudden change impacted surrounding vehicles, forcing them to dodge and slow down completely! During this delay, the surrounding police cars closed in, leaving no chance for escape.
Lin Chuan quickly looked towards the building above. The police captain wasn't far behind him in realizing the sound ca from a silenced sniper rifle!
Though the sniper rifle seed to have minor power, it was still a sniper rifle!
For a nation that strictly controls firearms, the appearance of such a weapon in Jiangbei City posed a threat more serious than the captured assassins!
However, the opponent's hiding skills were strong; despite firing a shot before them, they couldn't locate the shooting point despite a long observation!
This made any thorough search of the building or surrounding area impossible for the police captain.
Seeing his reaction, Lin Chuan also knew the mysterious sniper was definitely not a police insider.
"They are all surrounded! Mr. Lin, are you alright?"
Lin Chuan's identity, Tang Yung's forr colleague relationship, or Mayor Yan's personal orders—ensuring Lin Chuan wasn't hard was critical.
The frontline commanding officer reported to the captain with news of "mission accomplished" and checked on Lin Chuan.
"I'm fine. These people might still have sothing odd. Don't let them escape," Lin Chuan remarked.
Lin Chuan had already warned them before, but the police, in such an assured position, might beco careless, giving the opponent a chance to exploit it.
"Bang!"
Just as Lin Chuan finished speaking, a smoke screen erupted from the center of the police encirclent, enveloping all the cars within.
Lin Chuan and the others felt a tightness in their hearts; if they let the enemies escape under such circumstances, the entire police force would probably face disciplinary action, and it would also boost the opponents' arrogance.
Though it seed unlikely they could escape now, no one knew what other tricks they might have up their sleeves.
The captain was experienced, furrowing his brow but soon showing a determined expression.
"Fire!"
A nearby officer hesitated and said, "But Captain, the City Bureau wants us to capture them alive to find out who's behind this..."
"Fire!" the captain yelled again, this ti with a hint of anger.
Lin Chuan's eyes flashed with admiration. Initially, he planned to take the initiative to substitute the captain in explaining to Song Xiaojia when the captain couldn't decide, but he managed to make the right judgnt imdiately.
Gunfire erupted, and as the smoke cleared, nine assassins were sprawled on the ground, looking severely injured. However, after treatnt, a few might still survive.
"Hmm, who would have thought Jiangbei City would attract foreign assassins? This ti, I'm curious to see how dostic and international professional killers differ. Mr. Lin, thanks to you for entangling them and drawing them here; otherwise, their long-term lurking in Jiangbei City would be a huge threat to our security." The police captain admired Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan responded with a smile, "Well, it's what we citizens should do, and since these assassins targeted , I should be thanking you instead."
The captain laughed, "Haha, Mr. Lin, you're too modest; weren't those killers last ti captured by you? Co on, don't be modest, protecting the citizens of Jiangbei City is what we're supposed to do."
Lin Chuan was about to exchange pleasantries but suddenly noticed that the mysterious person didn't make a move when the only uninjured assassin was escaping! Perhaps they didn't want the police to discover their presence.
But why? Is this person's identity unable to see the light? Also, how did they suddenly appear here, and specifically targeting these assassins? Are they trying to help or the police, or are they targeting these assassins?
Anyway, the trouble with these assassins is resolved, and even though the assassin leader got away, they no longer pose a threat to or my friends.
And with Nomura Xin's financial resources, hiring another batch of professional killers to cause trouble is now unlikely.
Lin Chuan expressed gratitude to the police personnel, then asked Zhao Zhonghai to notify Tang Yung and the others at the company that he was safe, while he went to the police station to make a statent.
But unexpectedly, upon arriving at the police station, the "police" who ca in turned out to be an old acquaintance.
"Uncle Li! What are you doing here?" Lin Chuan saw that the person making the statent turned out to be Li Xiangguo from the National Security Action Force.
"What? Surprised?" Li Xiangguo looked at Lin Chuan and said with a smile.
Lin Chuan laughed awkwardly, "Of course, a bit surprised. Weren't you always in Beijing? How did you suddenly co to Jiangbei City?"
Li Xiangguo waved his hand, "Co on, no need to flatter . I ca here to et you about those assassins."
Lin Chuan was startled and understood, "So, it was you helping in the ambush? No wonder you managed to easily hit the tires of speeding vehicles."
Li Xiangguo said, "Not exactly; given my age, I couldn't easily jump to the front lines. Didn't I tell you before? Due to our internal traitor, your abilities might have been exposed, so I specifically arranged soone to secretly protect you."
"Why didn't you tell earlier? Over the past days, soone was targeting , and I was so worried." Lin Chuan said, slightly annoyed.
Li Xiangguo wasn't bothered by Lin Chuan's "protest" and said, "My goal was just to ensure your safety. I couldn't let her get involved in your competition with other forces. If I told you about her presence earlier, can you guarantee you wouldn't use her to devise sches against your adversaries?"
Lin Chuan shrugged awkwardly, "I don't know, but even if your people helped a bit, it wouldn't be a big deal, right?"
"That won't do. If it's against foreign companies and the governnt involvent is discovered, it could be very damaging to our image. And if it's against dostic companies, it's even more impossible; we must treat everyone fairly, right?"
Lin Chuan looked at the old fox, feeling frustrated.
Clearly, he had already helped him, yet when talking, he still made sure nothing was exposed. But forget it, let's first understand the situation this ti.
"By the way, Uncle Li, were these assassins not sent by Nomura Xin? Were they sent by those who might be secretly targeting , as you ntioned before?" Lin Chuan asked.
"No, if it were those people, would they misjudge your abilities and let you escape so easily the first ti they targeted you?" Li Xiangguo's face turned serious, and he continued, "This ti, it was indeed Nomura Xin who ca after you. Moreover, this won't be over yet; although Nomura Xin doesn't have the finances to organize further pursuits, those assassin organizations are not ones to suffer losses without retaliation."
