The cold muzzle beneath the skull mask locked onto the unconscious Zhang Zhenbang!
The breath of death instantly solidified the smoke and dust swirling in the warehouse!
"Stop!" Captain Chen's furious roar erupted simultaneously with the gunfire!
Struggling against the disorientation from the stun grenade and the ringing in his ears, he relied on his incredible willpower to pull the trigger in the direction of the shadow!
"Bang! Bang!"
The bullets tore through the air!
The Black-Clothed Assassin moved like a ghost, evading just as Captain Chen's gun went off!
A bullet grazed his Tactical Suit, striking a concrete pillar and sending sparks flying!
The assassin's target shifted instantly!
The dark muzzle turned its aim without hesitation towards Captain Chen, who had just revealed his position by firing!
"Captain Chen, watch out!" another police officer, barely recovering, shouted as he leaned out from behind cover to shoot, attempting to suppress the fire!
"Tap! Tap! Tap!" The sharp sound of the handgun echoed in the empty warehouse.
The assassin moved like lightning, darting between cargo containers and pillars at high speed, bullets chasing his afterimage and sending debris flying!
His counterattack was cold and precise!
"Thud!"
A dull thud echoed through the air.
The police officer covering Captain Chen jolted violently, a spray of blood erupting from his shoulder as he let out a muffled groan and collapsed!
In the warehouse, only Captain Chen and the grim reaper-like assassin remained standing.
As for me, Wang Lei, I was curled up behind an overturned, tattered sofa not far from Zhang Zhenbang, my heart racing in sheer terror!
The acrid smell of gunpowder mixed with the stench of blood was suffocating.
The sharp buzzing in my ears had yet to fade, and my vision swayed in a blur.
Instinct for survival overwhelmed all fear!
I couldn’t die here! Absolutely not!
My gaze swept around.
Unconscious Zhang Zhenbang lay less than two meters away from me.
That black USB drive was just inches away from his hand on the concrete floor!
The assassin's targets were Zhang Zhenbang and the USB drive!
Captain Chen was desperately drawing fire, but he was clearly at a disadvantage, each dodge fraught with peril!
This was my chance! My only glimmer of hope!
Taking advantage of the moment when Captain Chen temporarily held off the assassin, I rushed to grab the USB drive! Perhaps… perhaps it could become a bargaining chip? Or at least, I couldn't let it fall into the assassin's hands!
The thought was reckless and bold!
But looking at Captain Chen fighting valiantly, seeing the police officers on the ground, some of whom were unconscious, and glancing at the fainted Zhang Zhenbang…
A surge of blood rushed to my head!
Damn it! I was all in!
I took a deep breath of the smoke-filled air, like a startled rabbit, using both hands and feet to suddenly dart out from behind the sofa!
My target—the USB drive on the ground!
"Hmm?" The assassin's senses were terrifyingly sharp!
Even amidst the fierce gunfire with Captain Chen, my small movement caught his attention!
For a brief moment, his gun wavered, as if he was about to redirect it towards me!
"Your opponent is me!" Captain Chen roared, completely disregarding his own safety. He stood up fully from behind cover and unleashed a barrage of fire!
"Bang bang bang bang!"
A flurry of bullets sprayed towards the assassin, forcing him to respond with all his might!
Now's my chance!
I dove to the ground, my fingers scraping against the rough concrete and drawing blood as I seized that cold USB drive!
The moment I grasped the USB drive, it felt heavy in my hand, as if I were holding a venomous snake!
A wave of immense danger enveloped me!
The assassin's attention was completely drawn to me!
I could sense those eyes hidden behind the skull mask, locking onto me like a viper!
He abandoned his struggle with Captain Chen, twisting his body in an uncanny manner to dodge a barrage of bullets. The gun barrel shot up like lightning, aimed directly at me!
The shadow of death descended in an instant!
I could even see his finger on the trigger beginning to exert pressure!
It was over!
In that critical moment!
“Buzz—buzz—buzz—”
A jarring sound of a phone vibrating pierced through the eerie silence of the warehouse at the most inopportune time!
The source of the sound—was actually coming from the assassin's own Tactical Suit pocket!
This sudden noise caused a minuscule pause in the assassin's trigger pull!
It was that split-second hesitation!
Captain Chen seized the fleeting opportunity!
He didn’t fire again; instead, he summoned all his strength and kicked a heavy metal barrel filled with discarded parts towards the assassin with all his might!
The barrel rolled forward with a deafening screech, crashing into the assassin!
The assassin had to divert his attention to dodge it!
Meanwhile, Captain Chen lunged towards me like a wounded tiger, taking advantage of the momentary distraction without a second thought!
He grabbed my collar with such force that it nearly lifted me off my feet!
“Run!” he shouted, shoving me hard towards a narrow passageway piled high with discarded cardboard boxes at the back of the warehouse!
At the same time, he turned and stood his ground, using his robust body to shield me from the assassin!
“Go! Take the USB drive! Find…” Captain Chen’s voice was drowned out by the rapid gunfire behind us!
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Bullets struck Captain Chen’s bulletproof vest with a dull thud, the immense impact causing his body to tremble violently!
Blood spattered from his mouth, yet he stood firm like a rock!
“Run!!!” He roared with the last of his strength!
Tears mixed with fear and despair streamed down my face!
Watching Captain Chen use his body to create a barrier of flesh and blood, witnessing the continuous bursts of crimson…
I had no time to hesitate!
The instinct to survive and overwhelming rage propelled me forward!
I clenched the bloodied USB drive in my hand and scrambled into the narrow passageway piled high with garbage!
Behind me, the fierce gunfire and the killers' furious shouts echoed like a haunting melody from hell!
The passage was dark and cramped, filled with the stench of decay.
I ran desperately, tripping over debris only to get back up again, ignoring the sharp pain in my knees and elbows.
Finally, I spotted at the end of the passage a rusted, slightly ajar Iron Sheet Door!
Outside! It was outside!
I slammed my shoulder against the iron door with all my might!
Blinding sunlight and fresh air rushed in instantly!
Beyond the door lay an alley cluttered with large industrial trash bins!
The stench was overwhelming, but at that moment, it felt like paradise!
I stumbled out, my lungs burning painfully.
Glancing back at the iron door, it seemed the gunfire had stopped…
A wave of immense sorrow and fear gripped me.
What should I do now? Where should I go? Who should I find? What was Captain Chen's last words, "Go find..."?
Just then!
My old phone, the one that belonged to me, suddenly vibrated in my pocket!
A completely unfamiliar number flashed on the screen.
My heart raced as my fingers trembled while I pressed the answer button.
A voice, altered and androgynous, coldly pierced my ears:
"You run pretty fast, delivery person. Do you have the USB drive? Good."
"If you want to live, do exactly as I say. Right now, immediately lift the lid of the third green trash can on your left and jump inside."
"Don't try any tricks; Viper is watching you."
