Sirens blared on the street as red and blue lights illuminated the night sky of the city. In the shadows under the bright lights, a black shadow was quickly shuttling back and forth, running through the dark alleyway that was as deep as a black hole. Behind the black shadow, a grey coat fluttered in the wind as the General Staff Department agents chased closely.
Miao Jun tightly held the handgun in his hand as his eyes locked onto the shadow. He adjusted his breathing according to the rhythm of his running. The opponent ran very fast and didn't give him any time to report his position. But it didn't matter as the phone in his pocket was always open. As long as he didn't lose sight of the person, it was only a matter of time before the General Staff Department's support caught this person.
But this person's leg strength was quite strong. The more Miao Jun chased, the more shocked he was. In the General Staff Department, his strength was already considered quite good, but after chasing for so long, the person in front of him didn't show any signs of exhaustion at all. Instead, his breathing was starting to become unstable.
If this continued, he would lose sight of him sooner or later.
The situation was urgent and he couldn't care less about discipline.
With that thought in mind, Miao Jun clenched his teeth and released the safety. He made a ninety-degree turn in the alley and immediately raised the muzzle and pulled the trigger.
Three gunshots echoed in the alley. He clearly felt one of the bullets hit the person's back.
After being hit by the bullet, the black shadow staggered and turned into a dead end.
Seeing this, Miao Jun immediately chased and turned into the dead end. He pointed the gun at the wounded person and yelled.
"Don't move! You're under arrest. "
Perhaps it was because the person heard Miao Jun's yell, but his back was facing Miao Jun and his body didn't move. However, the eerie laughter that floated out from under the black clothes caused him, who was chasing over, to tremble with fear.
A drop of cold sweat rolled down his forehead as he swallowed the instinctive fear. Miao Jun kept his gun raised as he moved forward.
But when he was only ten meters away, he stopped.
Because under the bright moonlight, he noticed that the person didn't have any blood stains.
"Oh? Officer, why aren't you getting closer? "
The voice carried a hint of mockery. Realizing something was wrong, Miao Jun decisively pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Sparks flickered in the dark alley. The bullet only pierced through the dark afterimage. In an instant, the safe distance of ten meters was pulled to the limit. The shining white blade under the shadow stabbed at Miao Jun.
The crisp sound of metal clashing echoed in the alley, and the colliding daggers even created sparks.
Suppressing the pain in his hand, the more he hit, the more shocked Miao Jun became. The close-combat ability of the person in front of him was undoubtedly above his, so it was clearly not a wrong decision to approach him rashly.
Seeing that the General Staff Department agents were losing, the man started to smile viciously.
"Die, before dawn."
As he spoke, another white blade slashed out from under the black shadow. The dagger was held by his side. Miao Jun's pupils constricted as he watched the sharp blade piercing his chest.
Bang!
Blood splattered everywhere, and the dagger fell from his hand. The man stumbled backwards.
The dagger that stabbed at his chest only cut open Miao Jun's ribs. Although it caused a lot of blood, it did not cause any fatal damage. A bullet that came out of nowhere saved his life.
Without a doubt, it was a sniper rifle!
Covering his wound, Miao Jun fell next to the trash can in the alley. His blurred vision saw an unbelievable scene.
The person who was shot by the sniper rifle struggled to get up from the ground as blood flowed out from the wound.
It was the first time he saw someone who could get up from the ground after being shot by a sniper rifle.
On the roof of a building one thousand meters away, Ayesha, who was lying on the ground, locked onto the street through the crosshair. Although she couldn't continue to aim at the person because of the obstacles. But from the shaking shadow, the person didn't die.
"Target hit … Failed to kill."
Surviving after being shot in the chest by a Ghost Sniper rifle? Witnessing this unusual scene, she instinctively felt a trace of unusualness from that person.
At the moment, Jiang Chen, who was sitting in the bathroom, frowned. After the attack, he dealt with the security chief who kept asking him questions, so he used the excuse of going to the washroom.
"Failed to kill?"
"That's right. Confirmed the bullet penetrated the target's body, but the target's life information did not disappear … The target is beginning to move. "
"Capture him, before the General Staff Department captures him," Jiang Chen said softly.
"Understood." Ayesha took a deep breath and got up from the ground with the sniper rifle.
"Wait, let the Ghost Agents do it, you come back."
As Jiang Chen's secretary, disappearing for too long could easily cause unnecessary suspicion in any sense. When the attack occurred, Jiang Chen contacted the Ghost Agents lurking in Shangjing. Based on the coordinates reported by Ayesha, the Ghost Agent should have arrived at the target area by now.
With the tracking of the Hummingbird drone, it was impossible for the assassin's accomplice to escape the eyes of the Ghost Agents.
Jiang Chen was curious as to why he was able to survive after being penetrated by a bullet. What's more, he needed to capture someone alive to figure out who planned the attack.
After he hung up the phone, Jiang Chen got up from the toilet. He had been in the bathroom for a while, and there were still a lot of people and things waiting for him to deal with. With such a thing happening in the guest hotel, it was questionable whether the diplomatic visit could continue or not.
The cleaning staff was killed, the security guard at the corridor entrance was killed, and the attacker with a bomb knocked on the door of the Xin business representative's room.
He wasn't the only one staying here. The other Xin merchants who accompanied him to Han were also staying here. It wasn't easy to suppress such a big event. A lot of people woke up from their sleep and began to ask the hotel security what happened. Zhang Yaping was negotiating with Han diplomats to urge the local police to punish the murderer …
If they could catch him.
Just as Jiang Chen expected, as soon as he left the bathroom, a few officials who obviously just got out of bed walked in front of him. They asked him about the details of the attack and promised him that they would use the entire city's police force to arrest the murderer and give him an explanation.
Then, Liu Haotian, who had just left, found Jiang Chen. Although he was only a concierge, judging from the respect the other officials had for him, the Liu family's position in China's politics was indeed extraordinary.
"Are you hurt?"
"I was lucky, I hid in the bathroom when the explosion happened."
Liu Haotian didn't see any fear from Jiang Chen's face as he examined Jiang Chen up and down with a strange expression.
"I'm relieved to know you're okay. If you have any requests, call me. "
"I don't have any requests, I just want you to give me an explanation." Jiang Chen stared into Liu Haotian's eyes and said without hesitation.
"The attack may have been planned by foreign forces with the intention of destroying the two countries —"
"I don't want to hear these polite words. You can say it on the news."
"Then what is your suggestion?" Liu Haotian frowned at Jiang Chen's insistence as he asked in an undertone.
With a smile, Jiang Chen lowered his voice.
"Xin can keep this incident a secret."
Liu Haotian was shocked as he looked at Jiang Chen cautiously.
"Your condition?"
"No conditions." Jiang Chen smiled and opened his hands. "We all want this visit to be perfect, don't we?"
