Chapter 2994: Chapter 2994: Fox of Northern Ouzhou
"Yuluo, Tao Cheng, take the people from Group Two and Group Four and escort Director Liu out. We’ll handle the rest here," Jiang Zhengnan said:
"Leaving everyone here is not good for the reputation of the Central Guards Brigade."
The two paused and didn’t say anything else, just nodded.
In the Central Guards Brigade, executing orders is a duty.
"Make the most of your time and do what you need to do."
"Yes!"
Finally, Qiu Yuluo and Tao Cheng, along with the members of two groups, took Liu Hong and left.
As he watched their distant figures, Lin Yi said:
"I’ll head back first. You find a way to infiltrate the city yourselves."
"Pay attention to the communicator, contact promptly if there’s any situation."
"Alright."
After leaving a word, Lin Yi got into his car and returned to the city once more.
Jiang Zhengnan, with his team, followed Lin Yi, while Ning Che stayed behind to control the people from the Execution Bureau.
He also learned from Leon that Wagner was in his office.
Due to the accident at the hospital, the city was restless at night.
Lin Yi quietly drove to the Ninth Department of the Arbitration Court.
But the vast office building of the Ninth Department had only a few scattered lights on.
In the information provided by Xu Li, the details of the Ninth Department office building were thoroughly explained.
Lin Yi glanced outside and looked towards the top floor, noticing Wagner’s office light was off.
Sitting in his car, Lin Yi glanced around outside, ensuring no one was watching, then tidied his clothes and headed towards the building.
Quietly, Lin Yi approached a window on one side of the building, which was the restroom.
Then, using a scalpel, he picked the lock on the window and slipped inside silently.
At the time of late night, the Ninth Department building wasn’t as quiet as expected; footsteps and voices could be heard.
With the large incident outside, it wasn’t surprising that some in the Ninth Department stayed awake.
Coming out of the restroom, Lin Yi jogged up the side stairs towards the upper floor.
He managed to reach the sixth floor with no complications.
The sixth floor was silent; there was not a single person.
Lin Yi’s gaze was sharp, locked onto the door at the end of the corridor.
Step by step, he quietly approached without making a sound.
Clatter!
Lin Yi stood before Wagner’s office door, ready to enter at any moment.
But just as he was about to enter, he heard the sound of glass shattering inside.
A wave of panic surged through Lin Yi’s heart; such sounds at this moment were definitely abnormal!
Instinctively pushing the door open, Lin Yi was surprised to see three people in the office.
To be exact, two living people and one dead person!
And that dead person was Wagner!
With his neck twisted in a bizarre manner, it was clear he had been broken.
Of the other two people, one was dressed in black and wore a mask, indistinguishable in the dark office.
The other one Lin Yi recognized - it was Kidd!
Seeing Lin Yi burst in suddenly, both of them instinctively glanced at him.
But the man in black reacted more swiftly, taking advantage of Kidd’s momentary distraction, jumping out the window!
"He escaped!"
Lin Yi and Kidd immediately rushed forward.
They found the man in black had jumped straight down from the sixth floor without any cushioning.
Kidd didn’t hesitate either, following suit down the sixth floor.
But his movements were more elaborate, stepping on the adjacent drainpipe to ease some of the falling force, then landing steadily on the ground.
"Is this something humans can do?"
Glancing at the corpse on the ground, Lin Yi knew this was not a place to linger.
But Wagner’s death added another layer of doubt in his mind.
However, the situation was urgent, not allowing him to think too much.
With that thought, Lin Yi also jumped out of the window, skidding down the drainpipe to the third floor, then jumping to the ground and getting into his car.
The engine roar sounded on the streets.
Lin Yi focused his gaze, locking onto Kidd’s car and began the pursuit.
Considering pure strength, Lin Yi was not on par with the other two.
But his driving skills were slightly superior.
Even after losing the initial advantage, he gradually closed the gap between them, though it wasn’t easy to catch up.
At this moment, Lin Yi’s brain was functioning at full speed like an engine.
Despite not having the full picture, his instinctive perception suggested that Wagner’s death was likely related to the man in black.
Kidd wouldn’t have likely done such a thing.
But with both of them appearing here simultaneously, everything happened in a flash, giving no time to react.
The only thing he could do was rely on instinct to handle the situation.
Brring brring brring—
Lin Yi’s phone rang; it was a call from Jiang Zhengnan.
"There’s something wrong at the Ninth Department, Wagner is dead, I’m chasing the murderer, wait for my news."
After saying that, Lin Yi hung up to avoid distraction.
Not long after, three cars arrived sequentially at the exit of the city.
There were also people from the Execution Bureau guarding here, but not many, seemingly all deployed to guard against the Central Guards Brigade people.
Seeing three cars emerging from the city, the Execution Bureau members immediately stepped forward to stop them.
But the man in black didn’t intend to stop, charging straight ahead, hitting the people and barricades blocking the path.
This situation created some opportunity for the two others.
No one slowed down as all sped through the gap.
This little incident further shortened the distance between the three.
The dark highway didn’t impact the vision of the three.
However, the winding route gave Lin Yi numerous opportunities.
After several turns, he successfully overtook Kidd.
Seeing Lin Yi catch up, Kidd glanced over and then chose to slow down proactively, giving Lin Yi space on the lane.
Silent understanding unfolded at this moment.
The car moved into second position, with just a dozen meters between Lin Yi and the man in black.
But after a few turns, the distance closed significantly.
Lin Yi’s bumper touched the man in black’s rear end.
Soon, another turn appeared, and Lin Yi didn’t decelerate, which gave him a speed advantage, allowing him to overtake the man in black!
With that, Lin Yi and Kidd surrounded the man in black, forcing him to stop the vehicle.
The engine noise gradually subsided, and the three cars stopped sequentially.
Lin Yi and Kidd got out of the car, watching the Volkswagen sedan in between.
At this moment, time seemed frozen.
Neither of them hurried, quietly waiting.
Click—
The car door opened, the man in black stepped out, standing before the two.
"Fox of Northern Europe Kidd, Merit Team Leader Lin Yi from the Central Guards Brigade, being stopped by you two isn’t shameful."
