The group appeared in an instant, and Tong Jing noticed them as well.
Then, through his goggles, it was obvious that fear flashed in the dwarf's eyes.
He wanted to run.
He wanted to run the moment he got the chance.
But someone was faster than him!
Teacher Xia seemed to have an obsessive-compulsive disorder: if he wasn't fighting, he felt the need to be undercover, so unnoticed by anyone else, he had already made his way close to Tong Jing.
So just as Tong Jing turned around, Teacher Xia grabbed his belt and yanked him back.
The dagger on his belt punctured with much flourish, and the jetpack hidden behind it clattered to the ground.
Teacher Xia, "Huh? It's still on cooldown, when did he last use it?"
…
As soon as he appeared, the guards were thrown into disarray, ditching their boxes and aiming their guns.
Teacher Xia didn't panic, he seized Tong Jing as a hostage, pressing a dagger against his neck.
"Don't, don't move!"
