“Chief Lin is joking,” Wang Zhenkun’s expression became somewhat stiff, but he forced a smile and said, “The guests brought it themselves, it has nothing to do with me…”
A person resembling an assistant by his side stopped the police officer who was about to enter the inner room and said, “Hey, this is our confidential room. Do you have a search warrant? I will file a complaint against you!”
Lin Wuyang’s phone also rang, seemingly someone trying to interfere.
Upon hearing the ringing, Wang Zhenkun sighed in relief and started sneering. Lin Wuyang didn’t answer the call and suddenly asked, “Your assistant is quite good, strong abilities and loyal. You trust him, right?”
A strange force passed through his soul, and Wang Zhenkun, who had let his guard down, couldn’t contain himself and shouted loudly, “He’s useless! If it weren’t for me lusting for his wife, I would have kicked him out long ago! We had planned for his wife to come out for drinks tonight, but it’s all ruined because of you, you stinky cop!”
The air fell silent.
Wang Zhenkun’s face gradually turned red like pig liver. The assistant stared blankly at him, his eyes becoming ice-cold, and the other subordinates around them instinctively stepped back.
Chu Ge, who was invisibly spectating with Qiu Wuji, almost burst out laughing. Lin Wuyang’s abilities could be quite entertaining if used well.
The assistant said loudly, “Not only is there drug trafficking here, there’s also an illegal gambling den!”
There was no longer any suspense.
Lin Wuyang let out a long sigh. “Other people have a romantic Qixi Festival, but this is our Qixi Festival.”
The assistant acted as a guide and led Lin Wuyang to the gambling den. Qiu Wuji transmitted a message to Chu Ge, “There’s a secret door in the underground casino, and someone took away a whole box of what they claim is drugs.”
“A whole box…” Chu Ge’s expression also became serious.
This was drugs we’re talking about!
Although Lin Wuyang and his team were efficient, if someone escaped through a secret door, it would be difficult to catch up without blocking the exit in advance. What about the drugs and other crucial evidence?
But getting involved in these matters…
Seeing his hesitation, Qiu Wuji asked, “What are drugs?”
Chu Ge whispered, “They are harmful substances, similar to the addictive pills I wrote about in ‘The Gate of Demons’ that control and enslave others… The country has shed a lot of blood through its soldiers to eradicate these substances.”
Qiu Wuji could tell from his tone what he was thinking, and she nodded slightly, saying, “No wonder your classmates’ tone is so severe and cold… Let’s help him out.”
Seeing her casual attitude, Chu Ge’s internal hesitation suddenly vanished, and he chuckled, “Sect Master Qiu is truly the light of the righteous path.”
Qiu Wuji smiled faintly, “You wrote it.”
She reached out and touched Chu Ge’s shoulder, and the two of them disappeared with a swoosh.
…
Suddenly, a door in the alley behind the nightclub was pushed open, and several burly men hurriedly fled, carrying boxes and bags.
As long as these things were not confiscated by the police, the situation could still be salvaged. Even if they were caught with drugs, the quantity was completely irrelevant.
In theory, it would be best to burn all these things to ashes, but who would be willing to do that?
It was all about money!
In the distance, on top of a wall, Zhang Qiren and a few others hid in the shadows, coldly observing the situation in the alley. When they saw someone coming out, Zhang Qiren patted the thin monkey-like man beside him and said, “It’s time for you to redeem yourself by doing something meritorious…”
The man turned out to be the one who had previously attempted to assassinate him in the alley. He could only smile bitterly at the words and said, “Even if Second Young Master doesn’t give the order, I’m still willing to do this.”
Zhang Qiren sneered, “Is that so? Why haven’t we seen you doing anything all these years? But when it comes to assassinating me, you were fast and ruthless.”
The man remained silent, ready to step out and take action, but suddenly he exclaimed, “Huh?” and froze in place.
Zhang Qiren also exclaimed, “Huh?” and looked at the figure that had suddenly appeared in the alley, his expression twitching. “How did he come here too? Have my ties with him reached this point? Why couldn’t I see it when we lived together… Ah, it’s a pity he’s a man.”
The people around him: “…”
Not only is he a man, but he also has a girlfriend. That terrifying girlfriend can even lift assassins with one hand. Second Young Master, you better wake up.
Wait, where is that woman?
Chu Ge didn’t let Qiu Wuji appear; she was just silently watching over. Both of them felt that it would be better for Qiu Wuji not to reveal her abilities too much in front of outsiders. If they had to show them, it should be Chu Ge since Qiu Wuji didn’t even have an identity. However, if they could delay the opponent for a while, it shouldn’t be a problem for Chu Ge, who had practiced movement techniques and had the Golden Bell Shield, to block the entrance of the alley for a minute or two.
On the other side of the alley, the big man also saw someone blocking the entrance and became both anxious and angry, saying, “Get out of the way!”
Saying that, he directly rushed towards Chu Ge.
A faint golden light emanated from Chu Ge’s body, and upon impact, his figure remained motionless, while the big man who collided with him seemed to have hit a wall. He let out a painful groan and took several steps back before stabilizing himself.
“Huh, now my balance is even more stable. The durian practice is really useful?” Chu Ge thought of continuing to use the Golden Bell Shield and then saw two big men pouncing at him, their expressions fierce. “So you’re here to disrupt things. You’re looking for death!”
Fierce expressions, large fists, and ruthless gangsters. Chu Ge had never imagined facing such a scene in his life, but at this moment, he didn’t even feel a hint of nervousness.
His footsteps instinctively and lightly dodged, even though it was a narrow alley and close-quarter combat, it seemed as if he was strolling leisurely. The two men passed by him, not even touching his clothes. Instead, they used too much force and stumbled forward.
Zhang Qiren and his group in the distance were all wide-eyed with astonishment.
This roommate of Second Young Master is so damn handsome! Is this the legendary “Light Steps”?
In the next moment, the handsome prototype of Chu Ge was revealed.
Being completely inexperienced in combat techniques, Chu Ge seized the golden opportunity when he noticed his opponent’s unmistakable weak spot and swiftly delivered a solid punch to the left side of the burly man’s face. Just as he felt the satisfying sensation of his fist hitting flesh, an unexpected surge of pain shot through his side.
It turned out that the other big man had pulled out a dagger at some point and was already stabbing him in the ribs as he staggered. He hadn’t noticed it at all.
“Clang!” A golden light shimmered as the dagger penetrated half an inch into his flesh but couldn’t go any deeper.
The big man was astonished, his eyeballs almost popping out. What was happening?
Chu Ge let out a furious roar in pain and delivered another punch to the man’s face, the fist with golden light distorting his features, and the man forcefully crashed into the wall, spewing a mouthful of blood.
“Damn it…” Chu Ge, holding his injured ribs, bent down and looked up. The other men had already put down the boxes and all drew out their daggers.
Chu Ge: “…”
“Where did this brash kid come from…” Clearly, the sight of blood had also triggered their ferocity.
“If you want to be a righteous hero, go to hell!” The dagger was coming straight at him.
“Fuck…” Chu Ge wanted to step back.
In the next moment, his vision blurred, and Qiu Wuji had already intercepted in front of him. Her slender fingers, like white jade, gently pinched the dagger.
Big man: “?”
As her delicate hand swept past, all the daggers, which had been in their hands, were now in Qiu Wuji’s hand. In the astonished gazes of the onlookers, the daggers were crushed into a twisted heap of scrap metal.
Her countenance, which had always been filled with a gentle smile these days, was now icy cold. “You dare hurt him?!”
“Bang!” Several muffled sounds rang out like one, and all the big men were crushed backward by an invisible force, tumbling back more than ten meters and directly falling back to the entrance.
At this moment, the police also broke through the door.
Qiu Wuji had already disappeared with Chu Ge.
A skinny monkey-like man leaped down from a distant wall and chuckled strangely, “Young Master Zhang asked me to say hello to Young Master Wang!”
Lin Wuyang looked down at the boxes on the ground, the credit he had gained from the situation, then looked up at the disappearing figure of the skinny man in the night. He frowned deeply, “Has Zhang Xiaoren changed his nature? By doing this, isn’t he violating the taboos of their underworld?”
