Kong, this name has been known for many years. Always the most wanted criminal within the country, done all sorts of evil deeds, from murder to arson, there is no wickedness he hasn't committed. Lin Chuan had long been aware of him.
In the northwest and southwest border areas, the mention of Kong could make anyone pale with fear. When local public security police conducted visits, many victims were unwilling to speak up, due to Kong's exceptionally ruthless methods. Because of his relentless wrongdoing, the public security departments had issued a reward for his capture. Unfortunately, this guy Kong was very cunning, with a strong ability to counter-investigation. Catching him was very difficult.
But unexpectedly, he was encountered here.
"Really?" Lin Chuan said with a sly smile, "Afraid you don't have the skill. Believe it or not, I can kill all of you?"
"You!" Scarface became grave; the other person didn't seem like a police officer, but more like an assassin. As for the phenomenon of criminals preying on each other, Scarface had encountered it before. However, this situation was definitely rare. Scarface softened his tone, saying: "Brother, we're both from the streets. I'll share a piece of the action with you. Better to have one more friend than one more enemy, what do you think?"
"Master, it's done." Gou Dan gestured from atop a shipping container to Lin Chuan.
"Good, wrap it up." Lin Chuan rushed over swiftly.
Scarface wanted to move, but his leg was broken, and he simply couldn't move at all. Moreover, he couldn't resist Lin Chuan's speed and strength. In the end, he was captured alive by Lin Chuan.
Song Xiaojia was extremely embarrassed, if it weren't for Gou Dan's help just now, she probably would have been in trouble. She felt a deep sense of guilt and was at a loss. Lin Chuan tied up Scarface with a rope, then hoisted him onto the shipping container.
Gou Dan was thrilled, feeling that today's activities with Lin Chuan were really exciting and he was somewhat agitated.
"Master, does this count as acting the part of a chivalrous hero?" Gou Dan asked.
"It does!" Lin Chuan nodded.
"That's great." Gou Dan said excitedly, "My dad always used to tell me, one should act the part of a chivalrous hero, to carry out justice on heaven's behalf. Heh heh..."
Lin Chuan glanced at Gou Dan, saying: "But being a chivalrous hero is very dangerous."
"I'm not afraid!" Gou Dan shook his head.
Lin Chuan patted Gou Dan's head, which had very short hair, and it felt rough to touch.
Song Xiaojia mustered her courage: "Lin Chuan, let's hand them over to the police."
"What do you think?" Lin Chuan looked at Song Xiaojia.
Song Xiaojia looked at Lin Chuan with a pleading face, saying: "Other than handing them to the police, what else can you do? Are you planning to double-cross them? Or to settle this matter privately? These aren't the methods you should use, Lin Chuan. If you truly want to act the part of a chivalrous hero, handing them over to the police is what real chivalry is about."
Lin Chuan looked at Song Xiaojia, didn't say anything, but stepped his foot on Scarface's chest, asking: "How many of you are there this time?"
"Hmph, you think I would tell you?" Scarface sneered, "None of our brothers have ever feared death."
Hiss...
Song Xiaojia suddenly gasped. If it were an ordinary person, it wouldn't matter, but the other party was Kong. Kong who has caused the nation's police force to tremble. This was something Song Xiaojia had not anticipated. Kong was extremely vengeful, and ordinary people definitely wouldn't dare to provoke them. Touch them, and it's not just ordinary citizens in trouble — even police officers could expect meticulously investigated and retaliatory action against their families.
"Lin Chuan, this is a matter of great importance, you absolutely can't be reckless," Song Xiaojia said hurriedly.
"It's precisely because it's a matter of great importance that I can't let you hand them over to the police," Lin Chuan stared intently at Song Xiaojia, saying: "These people must die. Otherwise, we're doomed."
"You're going to kill them?!" Song Xiaojia was stunned.
Splash...
While talking, Lin Chuan, holding a dagger thin as a cicada's wing, slashed at Scarface's neck, and blood immediately sprayed out. Scarface fell over, convulsing all over, ultimately dying of asphyxiation. Song Xiaojia was dumbfounded, Lin Chuan was a veritable murder demon, unflinching at the act of killing.
Lin Chuan picked up the dagger, stepping on Scarface's chest, and wiped the blade on his clothing. Just as he was about to walk towards another man in a camouflage suit... Song Xiaojia panicked: "Are you crazy? Even if they are criminal suspects now, they are also protected by the law. You can't kill them."
"Move!" Lin Chuan glared at Song Xiaojia.
"No, I won't!" Song Xiaojia was frantic: "As a police officer, I can't just watch you killing them."
"Believe it or not, I'll kill you too?" Lin Chuan roared in a deep voice.
If any of them got away, it would be fatal for him, Gou Dan, and Song Xiaojia. Although Kong was dead, he had backers. Retaliation from those people was like an arrow in the dark, always capable of piercing one's heart. Lin Chuan feared such unpredictable sneak attacks. Not because he was scared, but because he worried about his relatives, his friends. Gou Dan was innocent. If the other side could confront him openly and square accounts, he had no fear of them.
"Alright then, kill me along with them," Song Xiaojia said in haste.
"You!" Lin Chuan clenched his teeth, saying: "Don't be ungrateful."
Having said that, Lin Chuan dashed forward in a swift move, wrapping one arm around Song Xiaojia's waist, his face close to hers. Their noses almost touching, Lin Chuan glared at Song Xiaojia and said, "This matter is for me to decide. You better not get involved."
"You!" Song Xiaojia was so frightened she tried to dodge.
Bang...
Lin Chuan transformed his fist into a palm and struck Song Xiaojia at the back of her neck. She instantly went limp and collapsed. Lin Chuan quickly moved her to the side.
Having just witnessed the efficiency with which Lin Chuan killed, Dog Egg saw a glimmer of brilliance in his eyes. It was clear that this kid was talented from a young age, someone who if placed in the military district would certainly receive intensive training and be destined for greatness. Lin Chuan glanced at Dog Egg and asked, "Are you scared?"
"No... not scared!" Dog Egg shook his head.
"Good, kill him!" Lin Chuan pointed to the man in camouflage.
Dog Egg hesitated, swallowing hard. Holding the throwing knife in his hand, he slowly walked toward the man in camouflage. Dog Egg moved sluggishly, perhaps contemplating the best way to end the man's life. He approached slowly, crouching down with the sharp knife in hand. All of a sudden, Dog Egg covered the man's nose with his left hand, and with his right, he swiftly stabbed the throwing knife into the man's throat.
The man instantly woke up, terror filling his eyes.
Thwack...
Dog Egg quickly pulled out the throwing knife, performed two backflips, and fled the scene. The man in camouflage screamed in agony, but the scream was soon drowned in a gush of blood pouring from his mouth. The blood gushed out, and he twitched in pain for several minutes before ultimately suffocating to death.
Dog Egg's eyes widened, his face a picture of shock as he stared at the man.
This was his first kill; at merely twelve years old, he had already taken a life.
"Dog Egg, well done," Lin Chuan nodded.
"Master, actually... I was really nervous just now," Dog Egg said after swallowing, smiling: "But now, it's okay."
"To perform like you did on your first kill is already very impressive," Lin Chuan said with a smile: "The first time I killed someone, I threw up for days. I couldn't sleep well for days, couldn't eat properly, as if I had lost my ghost. Almost got cleaned up by my own master, too."
"Really?" Dog Egg was taken aback and asked, "Master's master, the grandmaster? Is the grandmaster very formidable?"
"Heh, of course!" Lin Chuan nodded and said: "My master, he is..."
Rustle rustle...
At that moment, footsteps rustling outside could be heard. Lin Chuan had very sharp hearing, and the container had virtually no soundproofing. He quickly said: "Dog Egg, be careful. Someone's coming."
Hearing this, Dog Egg quickly rolled on the ground and swiftly hid at the foot of the container's wall.
Thump thump thump...
A series of knocks on the door, followed by a rough voice shouting: "Scarface, open the door. Sons of *******, hurry up and move. The cops are coming."
Lin Chuan gestured to Dog Egg with his eyes.
Dog Egg immediately opened the door, then crouched in the corner. His figure was hardly noticeable.
After the door was opened, three men squeezed in. The leader was a brawny man in a yellow jacket, carrying a heavy net bag, who threw it heavily inside, cursing, "Damn it, nearly lost our lives for this thing. Don't know where that bastard popped out from."
"Scarface, your granddaddy, why didn't you turn on the light?" barked Eagle from behind.
Click...
The light was turned on.
However, what came next startled everyone. The brawny man in the yellow jacket, with a cigarette in his mouth and squinting his eyes, followed by Eagle, grim-faced from his previous encounter with Lin Chuan. When he saw this persistent adversary of his, rage boiled within him. However, the cautious Eagle still scanned the surroundings; there was also that clueless female police officer, seemingly unconscious. And in the corner, a kid about ten years old held a slingshot. Eagle couldn't help but smile when he saw Dog Egg.
Lin Chuan was sitting in a chair with his legs crossed, toying with a black Type 54 pistol. The black finish was a bit worn, but that did not affect its lethality. The Type 54 pistol, with strong recoil and killing power, is standard issue in the military district. Some special operation forces also have some. This gun was Song Xiaojia's service weapon, and without a gun, Lin Chuan really wouldn't feel confident, especially since the others had modified crossbows.
"Back already?" Lin Chuan looked up at the three men.
"Buddy, name a price," the man in the yellow jacket spoke up: "We seem to have no grudge against each other, right?"
"That's true," Lin Chuan nodded and said: "As I've made clear, your robbery has nothing to do with me, but killing people, that's where I step in."
Eagle said disdainfully, "You think you're somebody, huh?"
