Chapter 95: Rogin
The guy’s route was indeed to Jiangcheng.
Was he that smart?
Either Shi Ping had some special talent to sense these things, or he was quite familiar with Jiangcheng, perhaps from the lab in Jiangcheng to Lanhai.
But no matter how one looked at it, his final destination was the Ling Family Laboratory in Jiangcheng.
Based on Yun Yan’s route analysis of Shi Ping’s movements, Shi Ping was most likely to cross the sea area beneath the Linjiang Grand Bridge tonight, so Ye Qiu had set up the ambush here long ago.
To prevent Shi Ping from discovering them, Ye Qiu hadn’t installed any cameras. After calculating the route, he had set up the ambush in advance.
“Master, according to the fluctuations on the water surface, there are slight movements underwater at three meters, comparing.”
“Comparison successful, matching Shi Ping’s underwater movements.”
“Good.”
This time, you run where you will.
Ye Qiu emerged from the tree, about to dive in and capture him, but Yun Yan’s voice sounded in his ear once more: “Master, a rescue signal from a person has been received, three kilometers away.”
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. He glanced at the water surface and sighed. “Give me the coordinates.”
“Understood, Master.”
Ye Qiu rushed toward the coordinate location at a speed so fast it was disorienting, comparable to a car racing at full speed on the highway.
The massive commotion stirred up huge waves on the originally calm water surface.
A wave more than a meter thick rolled up from the water.
Standing on top of the wave was a man.
It was Shi Ping.
When he swam in the water, he had already been very cautious, trying not to stir up the waves. But the moment Ye Qiu revealed his presence, Shi Ping instantly felt a mysterious and powerful sense of crisis.
Locked down by that aura, Shi Ping’s entire body was radiating uncontrollable fear.
Fear to the extreme was anger.
Shi Ping rolled up the waves and emerged from the water, angrily planning to fight the opponent to the death.
He looked around.
A gentle breeze passed, yet there were no ripples.
That aura that had frightened him gradually receded.
At this moment, Shi Ping’s two triangular eyes darted about, unable to understand why the person who had clearly locked onto him would suddenly leave.
These days, he had been wandering in and out of human society superficially, but ultimately he remained in human society. Thanks to the laboratory’s training, Shi Ping gradually developed the ability to think like a human.
Staring at the direction of that aura for a long time, Shi Ping finally dove back into the water.
He had to go to Jiangcheng.
Because of his newfound human thinking ability, he was particularly concerned about these changes. If he couldn’t resolve the genetic issue, sooner or later he would transform into a Komodo dragon.
Even with wisdom, what would be the point? He would only be trapped in endless agony.
He didn’t want to become something that people would instinctively despise from the bottom of their hearts.
……
“Hahaha, Blazing Angel, you’ve watched too many movies.”
“It’s Jet Li who doesn’t make movies anymore. I wonder which angel would dare to make a fuss in front of Brother Luo.”
“Damn it, this is Huaxia. Why don’t you bring a big immortal from Huaxia to ask for help?”
A few second-rate hooligans were speaking while shoving a well-dressed young man in front of them.
The young man trembled all over, his face swollen and bruised, his whole body shaking, yet he muttered under his breath.
Seeing this, the hooligans laughed heartily, taunting and mocking sarcastically, hands on their hips as they surveyed the surroundings: “I wonder which little bastard dares to meddle in others’ affairs.”
Luo Jin.
A notorious second-rate thug in Lanhai.
This guy might not be the most vicious among the second-rate thugs, but he was definitely the worst, the kind that was rotten and oozing pus.
Other thugs still followed some code of the underworld, but this guy didn’t follow any rules at all. Not only did he curry favor with the upper echelons, but when an old man crossed the street and he thought he was blocking the way, he’d kick him. This guy was hated by gods and demons in Lanhai.
People around them would avoid him, not daring to meet his gaze.
They would point at his spine from behind, but few would curse him to his face. Offending this guy was truly disgusting.
“Look, that so-called angel is completely useless. If I were you, signing a contract would bring me over a million Huaxia yuan, and I’d wake up laughing in my sleep.”
“I… my brother’s company’s fixed assets alone are worth over a hundred million. You want one million to buy this… it doesn’t make sense. I’m not selling.”
“Not selling?”
Luo Jin’s face darkened. He waved his hand at several subordinates.
“What he says he won’t sell, what do you guys say?”
“I think he’s lost his mind. Otherwise, why wouldn’t he take a hundred million for this?”
“Yes, a madman harms society. Let’s suffer a bit to contribute to society and send this madman to the mental hospital.”
Luo Jin’s subordinates skillfully pinned down the young man. A white car prepared in advance was parked nearby on the roadside.
Luo Jin waved, and the car started and slowly drove over.
“Blazing Angel, I hereby sincerely…”
“Look, this guy has gone mad, he keeps spouting nonsense in his mouth. Brothers, hold him down, don’t let this madman… fuck!”
Luo Jin was startled.
A golden card was stuck under his foot, with a blazing angel spreading its wings, staring at the sins of the world.
“Who is it? Get the fuck out here!”
Luo Jin’s face instantly darkened. His slender eyes flashed with sharp light, scanning the surroundings.
Besides the few onlookers, there was no change.
Except for the young man in front.
Upon seeing the card on the ground, tears streamed down his face, his expression filled with undisguisable joy as he muttered repeatedly, “It’s real, it’s really the Blazing Angel.”
“Brother Luo, this thing looks like it’s made of gold.”
The golden card shimmered with dazzling light.
The little brother greedily reached toward the card on the ground.
“Ah!”
The little brother screamed, and his outstretched hand was pierced by countless toothpicks.
Luo Jin’s expression completely changed. He looked around warily.
Several little brothers now had deathly pale faces, clinging tightly to Luo Jin, fearing they’d suffer the same fate as the man in front.
“Which road brother, step out. I, Luo Jin, in Lanhai also…”
“Ah!”
Another toothpick flew from somewhere, stabbing directly into Luo Jin’s mouth.
Luo Jin cried out in pain, clutching his mouth and hopping around. He pulled out the toothpick fiercely, a stream of blood spurting from the toothpick.
“Fuck, which bastard…”
Just as he started cursing, another toothpick stabbed into his mouth.
This time there were more toothpicks, one in each lip.
Luo Jin covered his mouth, squealing and shouting, but his lips were sore and he couldn’t curse out.
After much difficulty pulling out the two toothpicks, Luo Jin’s eyes blazed with fury: “Go, find the fucker for me.”
This guy was ruthless, urging the subordinates to grab the nearby melon-eating crowd.
“Is it you? I think it’s definitely you.”
The little brother said as he tried to search a woman’s body. His hand had just extended when he suddenly felt a piercing pain.
Looking back, his hand and that of the previous guy were both pierced like pig trotters.
“Aaah!”
Followed by several miserable screams, Luo Jin’s several little brothers’ knees gave way, and they all knelt on the ground, their knees full of toothpicks.
