At the end of the last chapter, Abel was calling for Number Four. Sigh... it seems that writing on an empty stomach is not possible, so please bear with me!
Chen Haoxuan heard a faint voice coming from the head of the assassin he had captured. He took a closer look and noticed that the assassin was wearing an earpiece. He removed the earpiece from the assassin's ear and put it on his own, allowing him to hear more clearly.
Hearing the voice through the earpiece made Chen Haoxuan very happy because he recognized who was trying to assassinate him. He remembered this voice; it belonged to Abel, who was calling her subordinates in English.
Wailing sirens echoed as numerous police cars entered New City University. Upon hearing the sirens, Abel immediately said to Meihiko, "The police are here; we need to retreat!"
Although Meihiko was a confident person, she wasn't confident enough to confront a large group of heavily armed police. She had a small object hanging around her neck, which dangled enticingly at her chest. She picked up the object and blew into it, producing a strange sound. As soon as the sound emerged, many people appeared from various places on the mountain. They moved swiftly through the forest, all gathering in the same direction.
Suddenly, Chen Haoxuan felt that these individuals resembled ninjas; only ninjas would run with their bodies leaning forward at about a 45-degree angle, arms swinging back at roughly a 30-degree angle to the horizontal plane, and legs kicking backward. "Could it be that Abel is collaborating with Island Nation Person to eliminate me?" Chen Haoxuan thought to himself. One Abel was already troublesome enough; now there was also an Island Nation Person wanting him dead, and he had no idea how many Island Nation Persons there were or what their capabilities were.
Abel did not gather her subordinates like Meihiko did; instead, she instructed her subordinates to retreat individually and regroup at designated locations.
Abel called for Number Four multiple times, but there was no response. She suspected that Number Four had fallen into Chen Haoxuan's hands and hoped that Number Four would decisively commit suicide to prevent their identities from being revealed.
As they retreated, the police had not completely surrounded the back mountain yet, which allowed Abel and her team to successfully escape from the police encirclement. Their speed was astonishing; in the blink of an eye, they had reached another mountain while the police could only watch helplessly as the assassins escaped right under their noses.
Li De was at the foot of the mountain with several officers carrying large suitcases. He called Chen Haoxuan: "Haoxuan, we have arrived at the back mountain. Where are you now?"
"I'm under a big tree halfway up the mountain. You should be able to see this tree from down there; its leaves are dense, it's not very tall but quite large," Chen Haoxuan replied on the phone.
"Wait for me; I'll bring people over right away," Li De responded.
They arrived halfway up the mountain, and Chen Haoxuan saw them, so he shouted, "I'm here, come over quickly."
Li De and the others heard Chen Haoxuan's voice and hurried over, discovering that he was hiding in the bushes with a foreigner whose limbs were bound. "Haoxuan, he can't be the assassin, right?"
"Yes, he is the assassin. Since there are many of them, I didn't dare to act recklessly. So I captured one and called you to bring a lot of police; otherwise, we wouldn't scare them away," Chen Haoxuan replied.
"This guy isn't moving at all; he can't be dead, right?" Li De questioned.
"Don't worry, he's just unconscious," Chen Haoxuan said with a smile.
"Oh," Li De replied, looking enlightened.
"Hurry up and put him in the trunk. Just pull the chain halfway; otherwise, he'll suffocate. When we take him to the police station, no one can know there's a person inside, understand?" Chen Haoxuan said seriously to Li De and the others.
The few people brought by Li De hurriedly placed the bound man into the trunk and then carried it down the mountain. Since Li De was present, no one questioned what they were carrying.
Chen Haoxuan followed Li De back to the police station while the other officers continued pursuing Abel and his group.
Upon arriving at the police station, the bound man was taken into the interrogation room. Chen Haoxuan secured him to a chair made of iron and then stuffed a cloth into his mouth before splashing cold water on him to wake him up.
As soon as he woke up, he realized he was tied to a chair with Chen Haoxuan and a police officer grinning at him. Seeing their smiles made him aware that he would face something very cruel. To avoid such suffering, he wanted to commit suicide; however, he felt frustrated because Chen Haoxuan had blocked his mouth, making it impossible for him to do so.
Chen Haoxuan spoke up: "I know you want to commit suicide right now, but I don't want you dead just yet. I need to know why you approached me and why you wanted to kill me later. If you tell me, I'll give you a large sum of money and let you go so that you can live a carefree life."
"If you don't speak, even if I don't kill you, your companions will find a way to eliminate you. You know that. I am giving you ten minutes to think carefully about whether you want to die or live a wealthy life." Chen Haoxuan said to Number Four. After speaking, he took out two cigars and handed one to Li De, and the two of them slowly started smoking.
Number Four had been receiving strict training since childhood, along with the mindset that one should sacrifice everything for the country. This training had accompanied him as he grew up, so he would never choose to surrender. Others might not know the power of the American Special Agent Group, but as an agent, did he not know? Even if he agreed to Chen Haoxuan's demands and received a large sum of money to leave and live in a remote place, agents from the United States would still be able to find him. At that point, he would face the fate of a traitor—a fate they had all seen before, the most brutal punishment in the world. Just thinking about that punishment made it clear that even with a thousand lives, he wouldn't dare betray.
Thus, Number Four thought about it. He wanted to agree to Chen Haoxuan's request and planned that as soon as Chen Haoxuan removed the cloth from his mouth, he would immediately bite his tongue and end his life.
Hmm hmm hmm... Number Four looked at Chen Haoxuan and whimpered.
"You agree?" Chen Haoxuan said with a smile.
"Mm hmm..." Number Four nodded.
"Then wait a moment," Chen Haoxuan said with a wicked grin.
Chen Haoxuan left the police station and went to a hospital next door. Using his identity, he told the hospital staff that Li De had sent him to make a purchase. Considering that Chen Haoxuan was a billionaire and Li De was the chief, the hospital staff agreed to sell him some tools for treating wounds: scalpels, scissors, forceps... along with some medications.
