Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After sitting down, Zi Yi asked Dou Xiangling, “Cousin, do you like Teacher Zhang?”
Dou Xiangling revealed a bitter smile and lowered her eyes. “I don’t have that type of feeling towards him.”
Sometimes, Dou Xiangling felt that she was scum. She did not like the other party, but was unable to reject him and could only leave the relationship between the both of them hanging just like that.
Zi Yi looked at her expression and grabbed her hand. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly felt a dangerous aura approaching at fast speeds.
Shadow’s voice sounded in her ear. “Master, please take care. There’s a bullet incoming.”
Zi Yi pulled Dou Xiangling’s hand and dodged while she took out a circular ball and threw it out.
At the same time, Zhang Hanyu shouted in shock, “Xiangling, Little Zi, quick, dodge!”
The people around them also fell into panic.
The circular ball transformed into a shield and blocked one of the bullets. However, there were several people wearing casual clothes rushing over in their direction with weapons in their hands.
Zi Yi grabbed Dou Xiangling’s hand and quickly threw out a few more circular balls.
The scene became even more uncontrollable. Pedestrians started screaming and scurrying around, and very soon, they pushed Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling apart.
Ziyi loudly called out, “Shadow, protect my cousin.”
When Shadow appeared beside Dou Xiangling, a man holding onto a knife rushed towards Dou Xiangling, aiming to cut her right hand.
“Xiangling, be careful.”
Zhang Hanyu pulled Dou Xiangling’s wrist and their bodies switched around. That knife ended up stabbing Zhang Hanyu’s waist and blood poured out.
Dou Xiangling got a fright. “Teacher Zhang, are you alright?”
Just then, Shadow made his way over and directly knocked the perpetrator unconscious.
Dou Xiangling said to Shadow anxiously, “Shadow, quick, help Teacher Zhang. He’s bleeding a lot.”
Shadow had medicine for emergency usage and it fed Zhang Hanyu a pill.
Following that, Shadow moved the two of them elsewhere.
Zi Yi looked at the dozens of people surrounding her and she revealed a chilly smile. “You dare to attack me in such an open space? Aren’t you afraid that your master would get unlucky? Or could it be that your master thinks that he can cover the world with his hand?”
After Zi Yi said that, she took out a few silver needles and pinched them between her hands, with the intention to give them a good acupuncture treatment.
The group of attackers did not think of Zi Yi as a threat and directly attacked her.
Yet another group of trained men wearing casual clothes dashed over. After the man leading the group arrived, he lifted Zi Yi by her waist and kicked the man in front of him.
“Ow-”
BAM!
The man spat out a mouthful of blood before he crashed onto the ground and lost consciousness.
His men had quickly dealt with the other side.
Soon, the first group was beaten up to the extent that they had no way to retaliate.
During that moment, the guards arrived late.
Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye whose expression looked ugly. She then asked, “Who is behind this?”
Before Lu Jingye had the chance to speak, the leader of the guards strode over in their direction.
“Third Young Master Lu, Miss Zi, are you two alright?”
Lu Jingye’s voice was extremely chilly. “This area isn’t far from the guard post. Why didn’t you arrive here at the very first instance.”
“This…” The leader of the guard trembled under the chilly aura Lu Jingye radiated. He tried his best to resist the urge to wipe his sweat and said, “It just so happened that some incidents happened in several directions. All my men were dispatched.”
Evidently, someone had deliberately lured them away.
Zi Yi looked towards Lu Jingye.
Lu Jingye tightly pursed his lips and his eyes revealed a sharp glint.
The leader of the guard had cold sweat trickling down his back.
Just then, Lu Jingye spoke up. “I will personally investigate who is behind this.”
The leader of the guard opened his mouth and hastily said, “I have to bring these people back to take statements.”
“I will send them to your place tomorrow.”
“But…” Can you guarantee that these people will live to see another day? The leader of the guard did not speak his thoughts out loud.
Even though he very much wanted to say it, he did not dare to offend the person in front of him. However, he did not dare to skip the procedures required of him either, and so he said, “Third Young Master Lu, if you really want to bring these people away, then I’d like to trouble you to give my higher-ups a call. I am unable to make the decision.”
Lu Jingye nodded his head, took out his phone, and dialed a string of numbers. After the call got connected, he said, “There’s a group of international fugitives attacking passers-by on XX road. I have to bring them away.”
After Lu Jingye got an answer from the other side, he looked at the leader of the guard who was looking back at him with an expression of disbelief. “It’s done.”
He only managed to recover his senses after his phone rang.
He quickly answered the call and the higher-ups informed him not to obstruct the Third Young Master Lu.
The leader of the guard opened his mouth and very much wanted to say that these people did not look like international fugitives in the slightest. However, as he was subjected to Lu Jingye’s chilly gaze, he could only swallow the words he wanted to say.
Lu Jingye ordered his men he had brought along. “Bring them away.”
Zi Yi had taken out two circular balls and thrown them into the air when Lu Jingye came.
The shield formed by the two circular balls covered hundreds of meters of the vicinity and caused everyone’s phone to be in the state of a black screen due to a virus infection.
When Lu Jingye made the call, only then did she remove the phone virus from their phones.
After Lu Jingye finished conversing over the phone, she told him about this in a soft voice.
Lu Jingye nodded his head and swept his gaze across those pedestrians who were hiding under the table as he said in a solemn voice, “No one is to spread out the incident that happened here.”
Those who were around here were all ordinary people who were shopping around the vicinity and how could they have encountered such a situation before in their lives? Moreover, after those people who wanted to film a scene saw that their phones were unresponsive, they immediately assumed that Lu Jingye was from the special forces. Out of awe, they dared not spread the news of this incident.
Lu Jingye and Zi Yi soon left with a group of people.
The men Lu Jingye brought along had captured the assailants and left stealthily, while Zi Yi and Lu Jingye went looking for Dou Xiangling and Zhang Hanyu.
They had a quick conversation as they walked.
Zi Yi asked, “Do you know who sent these people?”
“Rick got the embassy of Country D involved.”
“Rick? How did he manage to get in touch with Country D’s embassy?” Zi Yi furrowed her brows.
Lu Jingye said, “Someone helped Rick leave the country and he went to the Golden Triangle.”
Zi Yi’s frown tightened. “I didn’t receive the slightest information on that.”
She quickly took out her phone and contacted the robot she had sent to follow Rick.
The robot reported. “The target is in the suburbs and is closely being monitored by us.”
Zi Yi was surprised at the information she obtained. “To think that someone is capable of deceiving my robots.”
Due to the limitations of materials, there were many functions she had yet to install in her robot. However, it wasn’t a problem to monitor a person.
Lu Jingye made a guess. “Someone should have used a special method to secretly move him out of the country.”
Zi Yi thought for a moment and softly muttered, “It seems like I will have to develop a robot that tracks individuals through their DNA. In that case, even if they are turned into ashes, my robot would be able to detect them.”
Speaking of this, Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye and furrowed her brows. “Say, could it be possible that the people who took Rick away are the same group who knows that Yunxiao is brain dead?”
Lu Jingye nodded his head. “They are definitely related to Yunxiao’s injuries. We can only know who they are after Yunxiao regains consciousness.”
They are hidden in the dark and no one knows how or who injured Lu Jingye.. As a result, it was difficult for them to find the culprit.
