Two people were squatting outside the bar, waiting for Lin Yuan to come out. They didn't seem in a hurry and occasionally chatted with each other.
I guessed that this guy probably wouldn't be out so soon. I felt differently; I thought he would be out shortly. One side had to take a stand eventually. The others in the car were also on standby. This kind of stakeout wasn't new to them; only those who could remain calm could strike hard when the time came.
He’s coming out.
The half-finished cigarette was crushed underfoot as Lü Zhigang spoke. Lin Yuan was seen being escorted out of the bar by two men, their arms draped over each other's shoulders, appearing to have a good relationship from a distance.
Had he already been targeted?
Nan Feng touched his earbud and issued an order.
“Get a few people to deal with those two, then confirm how many are with Lin Yuan inside the bar.”
Since he was brought out like this, it indicated that he must have met someone.
On the other end of the earpiece, two words quickly came through.
“Received.”
Lin Yuan had already walked a few meters away from the bar, but his smile looked forced, as if he was feeling uncomfortable but was held back by the two men beside him who weren't speaking.
The two men noticed his expression.
“Don’t worry, brother. As long as you obediently hand over what you have, we won’t do anything to you.”
“Hahaha, sure, sure.”
While Lin Yuan was exchanging pleasantries with them, he caught sight of several people approaching from the corner of his eye. The two men still hadn’t sensed anything unusual until the figures got closer, but by then it was too late.
Just as they reached for their weapons from their pockets, they were swiftly disarmed by the officers rushing in.
“Don’t move!”
A low warning came through, accompanied by pain in their arms. The two men were pinned to the ground by other officers. At that moment, only a few scattered pedestrians on the street witnessed this scene and assumed it was just a fight; they hurriedly left.
The two men were still dazed and instinctively looked towards Lin Yuan, the only one standing among the three officers.
“Are you a cop?!”
Those familiar three words pierced through their lives like an arrow.
The officers behind them didn’t waste any more time talking; they didn’t even give them a chance to speak with Lin Yuan before sealing their mouths and taking them away. Only one officer remained to communicate with Lin Yuan.
"Brother Feng asked me to inquire about how many of you are there and who is present," Lin Yuan replied honestly.
"The photos I showed you earlier are basically all inside, plus the two guys from just now. They should still be there."
"I’ve observed that the private room doesn’t have a back door. It’s impossible for them to leave in such a short time; it hasn’t even been a minute since they came out."
The officer relayed Lin Yuan's words verbatim to Lu Zhigang and the others. This meant they could take action now.
Several vehicles had pulled up outside the bar, and the officers, with serious expressions, entered directly. The staff tried to stop them upon seeing so many people approaching, but when presented with identification, they had no choice but to halt.
They noticed that all the officers had guns at their waists. The presence of firearms deterred any trouble, making this operation relatively straightforward; the only thing that needed confirmation was the number of people inside.
Lin Yuan, still on the ground, felt a dangerous instinct arise within him, prompting him to glance back involuntarily. Something in the darkness was aimed directly at him.
His body instinctively reacted; he crouched down and rolled away, seeking cover behind a nearby vehicle.
Bang!
A gunshot shattered the silence of the night, causing those around to scatter quickly. The officers inside the bar were unable to hear the shot over the loud music still playing.
Lin Yuan understood clearly that he was being targeted. If it weren’t for him, they could have easily fired while the other police were stationed outside.
Based on the direction of the gunfire, he deduced it wasn’t a sniper rifle but a handgun, meaning it wasn’t too far away. Meanwhile, someone in the darkness was watching Lin Yuan closely.
He licked his dry lips and aimed at Lin Yuan’s hiding spot behind the car, pulling the trigger once more.
Crash!
The car window shattered into pieces, forcing Lin Yuan to hunch down further. This wasn’t a sustainable position; the nearest vehicle was still that one from earlier.
Lin Yuan pulled on the door handle, and at that moment when it opened, he couldn’t help but marvel at his luck—just moments ago, the officers had forgotten to close it after passing by.
As he was surprised by why Lin Yuan hadn’t reacted yet, the engine roared to life and the high beams illuminated the area, instantly revealing a face right in front of Lin Yuan’s line of sight.
The face was unfamiliar, and Lin Yuan was certain he had never seen it before.
Buzz!
The tires screeched against the pavement as he charged forward. The figure across from him was agile; realizing he couldn't escape on foot, Lin Yuan saw him hop onto a motorcycle.
So, after stirring up trouble, he thinks he can just run away?
Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel a mix of anger and amusement. Had the other party really thought of him as nothing more than a soft target all this time?
He slammed the accelerator to the floor, quickly closing the distance to the motorcycle. The road was relatively clear, and given their speed, other vehicles made way for what they perceived as a madman on the loose.
Surprised that Lin Yuan was still in pursuit, the motorcyclist turned his head, his eyes revealing a hint of shock.
In an instant, he raised the handgun in his hand. He knew full well that Lin Yuan was unarmed and posed no threat to him.
But just as he drew his weapon, Lin Yuan produced a small knife hidden in his pocket. A silver flash sliced through the air, striking the hand that held the gun with incredible precision. The black handgun clattered to the ground, sparks flying as it hit the pavement.
The sudden pain caused the motorcycle to wobble dangerously.
At that moment, Lin Yuan revealed a cruel smile from inside his car, sending chills down the spine of anyone who might have been watching.
The vehicle veered closer to the motorcycle, which was now flanked by other cars and trees.
Screech!
Forced into a corner, the motorcyclist lost control of his ride. Lin Yuan swiftly plunged his knife into the man's wrist, blood gushing forth. The motorcycle grazed past a tree and flipped over on the adjacent lane with a loud crash, sending its rider flying off into the air.
Lin Yuan calmly parked his car ahead and stepped out just as the fallen rider landed awkwardly on his twisted legs, clearly having suffered a brutal fall.
The man opened his mouth to speak but before he could utter a word, Lin Yuan crouched down and dislocated his jaw with a swift motion.
"Sorry about that; I was worried you might have poison hidden in your mouth for a quick exit. Best if you hold off on talking for now."
The man’s eyes widened in disbelief—how did he know?
