Chapter 73
(Unedited)
…
On the TV the graphic content of Lin Ting's execution was shown making many people who are watching feel uncomfortable and sick. When viewers saw the expression in that young man's eyes at that time, they knew that everything is over. They knew that he would surely kill his hostage without a doubt.
And when they saw the knife passing through the skin of the person in his hand, many of the women shriek in fright while watching that scene.
It was too horrifying and brutal…
In the Lin family house, Lin Ting's father is looking at the TV screen with his eyes turning red in anger and exasperation. Meanwhile beside him is a woman who is crying mournfully at the scene of her son being subject to a brutal execution.
"No!!! My son… How could he kill my poor son... Huhuhu… My wonderful boy… No!… Huhuhu…"
The rest of the people beside her tried to comfort her but she still cried and cried as she wailed for her son.
"We have to go… we have to go there! My son might still be alive… We have to go now!" she hysterically shouted while she tried to free herself from the people trying to stop her.
Pa!
A sounding slap landed on her face as an angry man glared at her. Lin Ting's father is truly angry and depressed at this time as he has lost Lin Ting whom he put his trust in among his children.
But it seems that everything is over at this time and he could not help but shed a tear in his eyes.
As a father, he has groomed Lin Ting into what he is today. A boss,… a strong and domineering gang boss. His dream is for his son to take over his position as a boss and someday rose once again to be the vice leader of the Hallowed Leaf Syndicate, or better, the leader himself.
However, now it is over… his son is going to die.
With anger in his heart, he crushed the phone in his hand while glaring at that face on the screen.
Meanwhile, in the scene…
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bratatatat!!!
The sound of gunshots rings in the air as the police began shooting at Xin Wei's figure after he slit the throat of Lin Ting. The first bullet was shot from a sniper and it flew towards Xin Wei's hand which is holding Lin Ting's neck.
The shot is too precise that Xin Wei has no choice but to let go of his grip as the hit was a bit painful.
When the police saw this, they immediately began shooting.
The glasses shattered and the lights began to dim, thick dust clouds kicked up as the bullets hit the tiles on the floor.
They did not stop until they emptied their magazines.
"Check it!" shouted Detective Fa Longlin when he noticed that no movement is happening inside.
A few police officers cautiously step forward while checking their surroundings.
The visibility is low and they could not even see what is happening inside.
As they slowly enter, behind them followed the rest of the police officers carrying rifles.
"Damn it!... That madman really killed Lin Ting. This is going to be more troublesome than I thought…" Detective Fa Longlin muttered to himself.
Suddenly his phone rings.
"Hello, this is Detective Fa…" he answered, but before he could say anything else the shouted voice of his superior almost burst his eardrum.
His chief began cursing him for handling the negotiation poorly. He is being blamed and his chief is telling him to prepare his neck as the higher-ups are angered by this event.
He knows that it was not his fault, but he is helpless at this point as they need a fall guy and that is him this time.
He could only curse his luck for encountering such a problem as this time.
After the call, he angrily put his phone in his pocket and takes out his gun.
"I'm going to kill this guy no matter what!" he muttered as he angrily strides inside the bar's lobby.
Once inside he could now see multiple dead bodies on the side. It was a total massacre of the people inside the bar. But he could tell that these people are the thugs that are working in this bar.
It seems that they have met their end at the hands of that young man.
"This is a really messy thing…" he said while gritting his teeth as he enters behind his men towards the stairs.
…
I am resting in a room while looking at my arm. There is a bullet that looks like an armor-piercing one embedded on my skin.
It's a bit painful, but I can take this kind of pain.
I carefully remove the bullet and then throw it on the side. Then I tried to listen to what is happening outside the room that I am resting.
I saw that there are some food on the table, so I helped myself as I feel a bit hungry after what just happened.
After about 2 minutes, I suddenly heard some footsteps coming from the stairs.
"It seems that my stay is overdue…" I muttered to myself as take another bite of the food on the table.
I took all of the fruits on the side and then stood up to leave the room.
I directly went to the edge of the room and then jump up to the ceiling.
I easily open the cover and then stealthily creep inside of it.
The footsteps are getting closer and closer and soon I could see two police officers entering the corridor while holding their guns at the ready.
They began checking the rooms and I could see one of them passing right below me. I controlled my breathing and just observe the situation below me.
It did not take long before the two police officers finished checking.
"The third floor is clear… we've already checked all the rooms here…" one of the police officers reported on the radio.
'Roger that… perimeter snipers said that everything is clear outside… continue sweeping the building. We already called for Hunters… they will be arriving in 3 minutes…' the other end of the line said.
Upon hearing that, I could feel my blood boiling. While fighting those thugs, my heart feels alive as if by killing them, I could obtain a piece of my being. Killing one of them is making me whole again.
I could still remember those obscure faces that have surrounded us at that time and their sinister smile, their lewd gazes towards Lin Qiao, and those menacing sneers on their faces. Whenever I see these thugs, I could always remember those times.
I wonder why that is?
After the two police officers left, I began moving through the vent and controlled my body so that I would not make any loud noise.
I soon found myself going up through the vent and soon reached the roof.
I could sense no presence on the roof at this time.
After going out of the vent, I suddenly heard the screeching sound of the vehicle tires on the asphalt road.
I did not hesitate to go to the ledge and carefully peeks out.
I noticed a couple of snipers monitoring the area.
Then on the ground, around five people got out of an off-road vehicle.
"The Hunters… The Hunters are here… That guy is surely dead…" the people on the ground began to murmur.
The reporters are still in the area as they continue the video coverage.
I did not have time for this as I have another place to visit. I've already gotten my hands on the information of where Yu Mantao is staying.
According to what that guy spilled out, Yu Mantao is staying in a luxurious condominium not too far from here. And that is my next target.
I carefully pulled out two sticking nails on the side and then set my sight on the two snipers on the roof of another building.
I covered those nails with my Qi and then flick them one by one to the two snipers which are standing on my path.
Two heads bobbed and then they fell on their rifles.
With a sneer on my face, I quickly jump from the roof and disappear through the darkness of the night.
…
Meanwhile, the situation that has happened here has already alarmed the parents of those names that Xin Wei has mentioned.
Many of them began to contact each other and began thinking of a plan on how to keep their child safe.
In this city ruled by the syndicates, they could not rely on the police officers or the mercenaries employed by the Syndicates. They can only rely on their own capacity by hiring the best Hunter that their money could buy.
With the protection of the Hunters, they knew that their children would be safe.
Besides the ordinary parents thinking four individuals are currently staying together inside a private clubhouse.
These individuals are Yu Bai, Jin Lin Mae, Da Bao, and Ye Benlai. They are the only ones who have succeeded in becoming super-powered beings. And each of them are currently tuning in to the news report.
