Chapter 537 Wind Spirit Moon Shadow
The sewer was filled with a foul smell and turbid sewage flowed underfoot.
Xu Xi leaned carefully against the damp wall, listening to the footsteps coming from afar.
That was the sound of military boots stepping on the water, and every step brought a suffocating feeling of oppression.
"He's coming." Nolan clenched the gun in his hand, his voice trembling.
Xu Xi didn't say anything.
He could feel his heartbeat speeding up, not from fear but from anger.
The long-haired captain, who was once a close comrade-in-arms and had gone through so many inhuman training together, has now become the most dangerous enemy.
The footsteps suddenly stopped.
"Instructor? It's really you." The captain's voice echoed in the darkness.
Xu Xi took off the mask on his face. If he continued to wear the mask, it would be a bit like deceiving himself and others, and trying to cover up his own mistakes.
"Captain, stop it, there are police officers everywhere outside."
The captain sneered, and the sound echoed in the sewer, sounding like a villain.
However, from Zhang Lang's perspective, it's a bit childish, um, a bit like the awkward feeling of an idol drama shot in Wanbei.
It's like a dance battle in the rain.
The long-haired captain finally stopped laughing, and his vicissitudes of life voice reached Xu Xi's ears: "Do you know why I chose this place?"
Xu Xi held his breath.
He could sense that the captain was not far away, but he could not see him.
"Because this place is like our past, the days when we trained before, have you forgotten?" The captain's voice was morbidly gentle, trying to awaken Xu Xi's memories and bring back a classic memory.
"It's dark, dirty, and never sees the light of day here, just like it was back then."
A cold light suddenly cut through the darkness.
Xu Xi instinctively turned his head, and the saber brushed against his ear and was nailed into the wall.
Nolan raised his gun and fired, but the bullet was empty.
"Be careful!" Xu Xi pushed Nolan away, but was kicked away and fell heavily into the sewage.
The captain stepped out from the shadows, his long hair fluttering in the humid air.
Behind his hands, an unfathomable feeling of power struck his soul.
Zhang Lang: It’s too dirty.
He pulled out the saber from the wall and pointed the tip of the knife at Xu Xi: "Why are you running away? We are the best partners, remember?"
Xu Xi climbed out of the dirty water and wiped the water stains off his face: "That's a thing of the past."
"In the past?" The captain smiled and shook his head.
"Look at every scar on your body. They are our shared memories. Do you think they can be easily erased?"
Before he finished speaking, the captain had already rushed in front of Xu Xi.
The saber drew a silver light, and Xu Xi barely dodged it, but the second knife followed.
The speed of the cyborg was too fast, and Xu Xi could only keep retreating.
Nolan fired again, and this time the bullet hit the captain in the shoulder.
But the captain just frowned, and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Annoying flies." The captain swung his hand and the saber flew out.
Nolan was unable to dodge and the blade pierced deeply into his abdomen.
"Nolan!" Xu Xi wanted to save him, but was stopped by the captain.
"Your opponent is me." The captain punched Xu Xi in the chest and knocked him out.
Xu Xi bumped into the wall and felt several ribs were broken.
He struggled to get up and saw Nolan lying in the sewage with blood gushing out.
"Why..." Xu Xi panted, "Why do you have to do this?"
"Because I need you, and I also need more money to transform our bodies." The captain's eyes flashed with madness, and he spread his palms as if holding something: "Don't you want this power in your body to become more perfect and stronger?"
Xu Xi suddenly understood.
Their purpose of coming to Hong Kong Island was to get more money, but he just happened to be here too.
He was pursuing the plan that was ordered to be stopped. It is not easy to perfectly transform a person.
Nolan struggled to raise her head, her expression was sad, but also full of satisfaction, as if it was such a blessing to finally see the person she had been thinking about: "Instructor... I'm sorry..."
Her head drooped limply, but her hands were still tightly gripping the gun.
Xu Xi felt something explode in his chest.
Zhang Lang, that’s right. He stretched out his finger and used the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow skill on Xu Xi.
Teammates offer sacrifices to the sky, and their magic power is boundless.
It's a big bug no matter where it is placed.
Xu Xi felt an unprecedented power surging throughout his body, and his eyes began to emit golden light.
"Is this what you want?" Xu Xi's voice became low and dangerous.
The captain looked at Xu Xi's condition and smiled excitedly: "Yes, that's right, that's it!"
Two figures collided violently in the sewer.
Each of Xu Xi's punches carried the force of thunder and lightning, and the captain was beaten back step by step.
"You're crazy!" Xu Xi smashed the captain's saber with one punch and said in pain, "In order to get money to transform your body, you didn't hesitate to kill Nolan, and those innocent people!"
The captain spat out a mouthful of blood, but he was still laughing: "As long as it can make me stronger... everything is worth it... Hahaha, don't you want to have more of this kind of power?"
Xu Xi grabbed the captain by the collar and pressed him against the wall: "Nolan...she just wanted to help me live an ordinary life..."
"Ordinary?" The captain sneered, "People like us are destined to be out of the ordinary."
Xu Xi was silent.
He looked at the madness in the captain's eyes and suddenly felt sad.
This once closest comrade-in-arms has completely lost himself in the pursuit of power and killing.
"Goodbye, Captain." Xu Xi let go of his hand and turned to leave.
Damn, why are you still so indecisive?
Zhang Lang took out his gun silently.
It's his turn to perform.
Xu Xi only heard a gunshot behind him.
Xu Xi stopped but did not look back.
He thought that this was the final relief that the long-haired captain gave himself.
Silence returned to the sewer, with only the sound of flowing sewage.
Xu Xi walked to Nolan and gently closed his eyes.
"I'm sorry." Xu Xi whispered, hugging Nolan tightly.
He picked up Nolan's body and headed for the exit.
"Hey, let's go, but leave the body behind."
Xu Xi: “Who?”
"Who could be the last person to appear on Hong Kong Island? Of course, it would be the police."
Zhang Lang smiled evilly and completely confused Apple.
Xu Xi looked back at Zhang Lang and found that it was Zhang Lang, whom she had met several times. She frowned and looked at Nolan in her arms. She said in a dry voice: "Can I take her away? Please."
Zhang Lang spread his hands: "Not really, she's a criminal, there's no way around it."
Xu Xi looked at Zhang Lang and Apple, weighed the pros and cons, then ran away with Nolan in his arms.
Zhang Lang was amused by Xu Xi's series of actions.
Damn it.
I thought this kid was going to take action.
He was ready to hit his head off.
The result is this...
Are you kidding?
Zhang Lang found it funny to see Xu Xi running away.
This contrast...
Zhang Lang raised his hand and removed the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow skill that he had cast on Xu Xi.
Xu Xi, who was originally running quite fast, lost the rhythm of his feet and fell forward uncontrollably.
Even Nolan, who was in his arms, was thrown to the ground.
Nolan: Are you trying to bring me back to life? Damn it.
Without even turning his head back, Zhang Lang shot the long-haired captain who was lying on the ground in the head several times.
Xu Xi's body shook and shivered reflexively.
Zhang Lang put away his gun and blew on the muzzle.
For cyborgs of their level, it would be safer to shoot them a few more times.
There is no way. People like Zhang Lang are kind-hearted, so he is worried that they will suffer.
Who made him kind?
He didn't stamp his feet a few times because he was afraid of getting dirty.
Zhang Lang opened his mouth slightly and said in a soft but clear voice: "Xu Xi, why are you running so hastily?"
His words echoed in the dark, damp and foul-smelling sewer, bringing a touch of weirdness and mystery.
At this time, Xu Xi did not respond to Zhang Lang's question, but just bit her lips silently, her eyes flickering constantly, staring at the body named Nolan on the ground.
I thought to myself: I really didn't want to cause any trouble, I just wanted to live my ordinary life peacefully. But now in this situation, I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult to get out of this unscathed.
Zhang Lang didn't seem to care about Xu Xi's silence, and continued to speak quietly to himself: "You actively assisted our police in successfully arresting this daring criminal gang that attempted to steal our police's important information. Based on this merit, I also plan to apply for a "Good Citizen Award" for you as a commendation and reward. Don't you want such a good thing?"
Hearing this, Xu Xi couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked in astonishment: "What?"
Zhang Lang suddenly stretched out a strong and powerful hand, and with a lightning-fast force, he easily grabbed the thin Xu Xi and brought her back to him like a chicken.
Xu Xi just stood there in front of Zhang Lang and another policeman, his body trembling slightly with tension and fear.
At this moment, he felt so helpless and confused for the first time in his life. He was completely unable to figure out what kind of personality and temper this serious and stern-looking police officer - Zhang Lang - had.
"Humph! This man is already dead, why are you so panicking? Why are you so panicked? Those criminals have been caught in one fell swoop and brought to justice. For you, isn't this a great opportunity to get rid of the shadow of the past and start a new life?" Zhang Lang said to Xu Xi expressionlessly.
Xu Xi hesitated again and again, and finally mustered up the courage to whisper: "Then can I..."
However, before he could finish his words, Zhang Lang interrupted him mercilessly: "No!"
Xu Xi actually defended himself with a look of grievance on his face: "But, I haven't finished what I said yet..."
He just wanted to take Nolan's body away and bury her properly, hoping that she would rest in peace and be reincarnated soon, and that he could visit her tombstone in the future...
Zhang Lang did not give Xu Xi a chance to explain, and responded decisively: "You don't need to say more, no matter what you want to say, the answer is no. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Let me tell you, I have always been impartial and fair, which is well-known in the police force. Therefore, there is no room for negotiation on this matter, unless..."
Having said this, Zhang Lang deliberately dragged out his tone to keep the audience in suspense.
As if Xu Xi had grasped the last straw, he hurriedly asked, "Unless what? I agree to everything."
Zhang Lang curled his lips and said, "I haven't even mentioned any conditions yet, but you agreed. I'm really embarrassed."
Zhang Lang was very dissatisfied. He hated it most when someone else snatched his lines. The last person who snatched his lines was that guy whose last name was Xu...
No, the last name is Sun...
It’s so annoying. I don’t know if that guy is dead or not. Based on his personality, I guess he’s dead.
Xu Xi: "Then you tell me, I'll agree to everything."
"It's boring. I won't say anymore. I wanted to save that person. It's boring, it's boring."
Apple exclaimed: "You can bring the dead back to life? Idol, are you a god?"
When Xu Xi was having a hysterical attack, Zhang Lang whispered to Apple Cricket, "That person is not completely dead, otherwise I would have let him take him away."
Apple's mouth twitched: "Idol, you are a bit of a dog."
He glared at me, "What are you talking about? What are you talking about? I'll fine you 800 yuan."
Xu Xi didn’t know that Nolan was not dead. After all, he didn’t have Zhang Lang’s terrifying strength.
"I……"
"What are you talking about? It's too late for you to beg me now."
Zhang Lang turned around proudly, ready to deal with those technicians A, B, C, and D from 701 inside...
Apple reached out and tugged at the corner of Zhang Lang's clothes: "He's so pitiful, if you don't help him..."
"Don't worry, our guys are coming in. Go inside and control the situation first. Take the credit first."
Zhang Lang held Apple's little head with his hand, as if he was carrying her away.
Xu Xi wanted to reach out and call out to Zhang Lang, but at this moment, he heard chaotic footsteps behind him.
……
Inside the Hong Kong Island Police Station.
Looking at the icon of Xiong Miao burning incense on the computer, everyone was at a loss.
In the boss's office, Cai Yuanqi, with a smile on his face, listened to his subordinates' reports.
He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "How could our protection system be breached so easily?"
"We don't have many computer talents, and we don't have any experts..."
"Oh... Last time I was on a visit, I happened to come across a protection system, so I just happened to introduce it to you."
……
Instead of spending so much money on a protection system, it would be better to use the money to support undercover agents.
We can’t let them bleed, cry and feel disheartened.
Zhang Lang guessed that the 701 transformed humans were the work of this boss. He just read the memory of the long-haired captain, which confirmed his guess.
This time, it is no coincidence that this group of modified humans from Unit 701 came to Hong Kong Island.
Some people wanted to stir up trouble before 1997, and resorted to tricks in secret in order to keep a backup plan for the future.
After capturing several people inside, Zhang Lang did not kill them. This group of people had average combat power and were technically modified humans in 701, so they could be easily controlled.
There is no need to kill.
Who made Zhang Lang kind-hearted?
Apple is like a little follower, with automatic tracking turned on. Wherever Zhang Lang goes, she follows him closely.
The main character is a brainless one.
