“Any news?” Zhou Han asked Zhang Fei. It had been four days now and there was no response from Rin. While most of the CSF, along with the military and the imperial forces, was trying to take down one of the biggest crime syndicates that existed before even the founding of CSF, the duo back at the facility was getting worried.

The biker had sent almost all of the CSF out. What would happen in the absence of such a major organization was a question no one could answer.

Zhou Han and Zhang Fei were already very nervous about the biker and Rin being in the same building. They wanted nothing more than to move Rin but she wasn’t waking up and moving her without knowing what was wrong with her wasn’t something both of them were willing to do.

“Nothing, for now. He hasn’t moved, he hasn’t eaten, and he hasn’t spoken. He hasn’t done anything.” Zhang Fei replied before he added, “And what worried me the most is that he hasn’t even asked for anything in return for the major information he gave us.”

“I think he’s just trying to use the CSF to take down a major organization. You know? Trying to have us do the dirty work.” Zhou Han speculated.

“And then what? We aren’t just gonna let him go. He must have thought of that and done something about it.” Zhang Fei countered.

“That would mean Lieutenant Yong was right,” Zhou Han said before he asked, “Do you really think he has a plan?”

“He has to. That’s the only way to get out of here.” Zhang Fei replied. “But the only problem is that I don’t see an end goal to this plan. What does he intend to do once he’s out? Take over the major organization? By himself at that?”

“Are we sure he’s alone? There’s the hacker for one.” Zhou Han presented a possibility.

“Physically, he does seem to be alone. If he had a bigger crew, we would have definitely heard of him.” Zhang Fei replied, “And the hacker, even if there is someone like that, wouldn’t be able to help him take over such a big organization alone. They’d still need a crew and a crew to run that big of an organization wouldn’t be small.”

“What if it isn’t a new player? What if it’s another criminal organization?” Zhou Han asked.

“There is a strong possibility for that but none of our field agents have reported any moves from the major organizations.” Zhang Fei replied.

That wasn’t a surprising thing that didn’t need to be mentioned by Zhou Han. Their field agents weren’t at the top of the tables of those organizations so there were times when they didn’t get any heads up until the organization had already been on the move.

“So… our only option is to wait?” Zhou Han asked.

“What else can we do?” Zhang Fei exhaustingly asked. He was the brains of the team and so far, he was coming out blank about everything. He didn’t know what to do or how to deal with the situation they were faced with.

He was out of ideas and that was the worst for him. With him out, he felt like they had zero chances of going against the biker who had bested them more than any other criminals have in their entire career.

“I don’t like this,” Zhou Han replied, tired as well.

However, they were soon awoken by their senses alarming them. As soon as they turned their heads to the biker, they saw a chair, the very one he was sitting in, flung at the mirror.

While the mirror didn’t fall, the cracks in it were enough to indicate that it would be out on its own without anyone even touching it.

But someone

was

trying to touch it. No, that someone was trying to jump through it. The biker broke through the mirror and landed in the other room.

It all happened so fast that Zhang Fei and Zhou Han couldn’t react in the least. Before they were aware of everything that happened in an instant, the biker was already on the other side. Their side.

Zhou Han was quick to act on his feet and attacked the biker before he could.

His fist connected with the biker’s face, a terribly disgusting face, but as it did, the biker’s face turned to the right. However, the biker slowly turned his face back to Zhou Han.

“What the…” Zhou Han confusedly said but before he could do anything, the biker punched him squarely in the stomach and threw him flying into the wall behind him.

Zhang Fei also moved once he was aware of what was happening and pulled out his sword. The biker looked at the sword and smiled.

“That’s a nice-looking weapon, Sergeant. I obtained something interesting recently as well. You will be the first one I will use it on.” The biker calmly took about ten seconds to say all that. While talking wasn’t something that usually happened in such battles, Zhang Fei wasn’t in a hurry to attack.

Zhou Han wasn’t up after that hit which meant it was strong. The biker, for some reason, was still strong even though clearly his bracelet was working and there was no Qi in the attack earlier.

An enemy that wasn’t too light to face. Zhang Fei analyzed that in a second and was waiting for the backup to arrive. As soon as the glass broke, the alarm must have sounded. There were still almost a hundred CSF officers in the building so it was very unlikely the biker would be able to get past all of them unless he slowly took them out in small groups which wouldn’t happen if they all had a chance to regroup.

The biker, on the other hand, calmly remained in his place, well aware of the sergeant’s intentions. But even when he knew, he didn’t do anything. He simply stood in his spot, waiting for the cultivators to arrive outside.

As the concentration outside increased, Zhou Han also woke up in the meantime. He also stood up to help once he was aware of his surroundings.

“What was that?” Zhou Han asked.

Knowing well to what he was referring to, Zhang Fei replied, “I don’t know. Maybe he’s just strong.”

“Without Qi?” Zhou Han worriedly asked, making sure he wasn’t mistaken. Unfortunately, he wasn’t.

“Mhm,” Zhang Fei replied as he and Zhou Han prepared for the battle.

Zhou Han also brandished his weapon which was a curved katana. It was bluish in color and it was reflecting light that fell on it.

“Another nice weapon,” The biker calmly said before he looked around the room, “I wonder if your Captain has a nice weapon?”

“You bastard! Don’t you dare take her name!” Zhou Han angrily said but Zhang Fei stopped him from making any rash decisions.

“Oh, please. You’re not blaming me for her condition, are you? Or for the condition of your friends? Wait,” The biker said as if he made a mistake, “They’re dead. Sorry.”

“Argh!” Zhou Han grunted in anger but he was still stopped by Zhang Fei.

Stay connected through empire

“Haha,” The biker chuckled at the reaction of Zhou Han before he added, “Well, it wasn’t really my fault.”

“Not your fault?!” Zhou Han yelled.

“Exactly.” The biker said before he asked, “Ask yourselves. Was it worth it to bring one bit*h to justice at the cost of your entire team?”

While Zhou Han had no idea what the biker was saying, Zhang Fei understood perfectly well.

“You just had to get on my nerves, didn’t you? If you didn’t find any evidence, the decent thing to do was to drop it. But you had to keep going, didn’t you? Even when you had no evidence, you had to keep on pushing, didn’t you?” The biker asked.

“The only person we suspected was Wei Jun Ruan. Are you admitting you are him?” Zhang Fei asked. From the beginning, they hadn’t been able to make sure that Wei Jun Ruan was the biker.

With the biker practically saying he was Wei Jun Ruan, nothing more needed to be said.

“Haha,” The biker once again chuckled before he said, “So you do have a brain. Very well, let me give you the satisfaction of your investigation.”

The biker took a step forward, startling the two men who readied themselves to attack.

The biker chuckled once again and said, “Yes, as you suspected, I am Wei Jun Ruan. I killed the bit*h whose name I’ve already forgotten. I killed your teammates. I will kill you two so this information doesn’t get out. And I will be kind enough to kill your Captain so you can all be together in the afterlife. If there’s one.”

“You don’t have to,” Zhang Fei said before he pointed at a camera above their heads, “Even if we die, your information should be spread throughout the CSF database by now.”

“Will it be now?” The biker asked, “Then don’t you think I would have thought of that?”

“…”

“Tell me, Sergeant. Why do you think there have been alarms blaring but no attempt of the outside contact yet? Isn’t it protocol, for all of the CSF, to respond to an emergency? Where are the reinforcements, Sergeant?” Upon hearing the biker’s questions, Zhang Fei realized.

“The hacker…” He muttered which induced a laugh from the biker who said, “Bingo.”

“And now,” The biker said before he waved his hand in the air and something appeared in his hand, “Let the killing begin.”
