Pure Darkness

Chapter 103

Jian Yao said, as an introduction, “I'm Jian Yao from the Beijing Special Case Unit, and this is Professor Bo. From today, we will count on you two to work with us.” He did not reveal Zhu Tao's identity, and Zhu Tao himself merely lit a cigarette and nodded at them with narrowed eyes.

Oi! I am an article!

Two members of the special police force replied, “Ya,” and standing to one side.

The opening of the operation will begin officially soon. Zhu Tao once again retrieved the folder from his jacket and whispered, “You should protect it well.” Jian Yao accepted it and kept it in her document box.

Oi! I am an article!

“Bring the suspect out first,” Zhu Tao said to his subordinates.

Jian Yao also told the two special forces members, “You go first.” Afterwards, Zhu Tao would personally engage Bo Jinyan in a detailed discussion of the organization of the Buddhist Hand.

Everyone was heading out to respond to instructions, when suddenly, Bo Jinyan said, “How is Captain Zhang from your Operations Division?”

The two special forces members paused for a moment. The slightly older of the two turned to say, with a smile, “Professor Bo, that's a strange question. The Operations Division only has Captain Xie and Captain Ma, no Captain Zhang there.” The other man smilingly nodded in agreement.

Oi! I am an article!

Zhu Tao narrowed his eyes and sucked his cigarette lazily. Suddenly, he threw out his cigarette and pulled out his gun. In that split second, the two ‘ special police force’ members were moving at incredible speed, pulling their guns, and shooting.

But tragedy happened. Since Zhu Tao's subordinates had escorted the three criminals, he walked in front and did not turn around. Therefore, he was unaware of the unexpected situation that was happening behind him. A bullet fired by a member of the ‘’ special police force flew towards his back. Zhu Tao yelling, “Down!” but it's too late. The subordinate responded very quickly; he turned around and fell to the ground, but the bullet still hit his stomach. He lay on the ground, looking gravely injured and unable to move at all.

With a single move, Jian Yao protected Bo Jinyan, pulled her weapon, and shot. However, even though he had been ‘learning’ under the fanatical criminal investigator Fang Qing for a year, he had little combat experience dealing with such ruthless gangsters. Moreover, he was trying to protect Bo Jinyan. Therefore, he was a little slow in pulling his weapon.

The peng! Zhu Tao's bullets hit one of them, but the bullets of others also flew towards them. Zhu Tao threw himself in front of Bo Jinyan and Jian Yao while snorting. Jian Yao exclaimed, “Captain Zhu!” He released Bo Jinyan, raised his gun and shot! Then, he held onto Zhu Tao, who had been shot.

A second ago, Zhu Tao was being gentle and delicate, but at this moment his face was pale and his eyes were very wide as he said, “Quick! Chase it! Information. . . couldn't fall into their hands. .”

Jian Yao jerked her head and saw a figure move. It turned out that the person Zhu Tao shot earlier had taken the opportunity when they were caught off guard to pull himself up, take the document box on the table and escape the scene! Jian Yao was in a state of shock when Zhu Tao spat out a mouthful of blood and said, “Quiet. . . I have a strong hold on life. . . I won't be dead for a while.”

Jian Yao gritted her teeth and looked at Bo Jinyan. Bo Jinyan lowered her head towards Zhu Tao on the floor and said, quickly, “We will get the information back.” Zhu Tao looked at him and nodded.

Jian Yao withdrew Bo Jinyan's hand and they dashed out the door.

As soon as they got to the ground floor, they heard the sound of – car sure enough, the gangster fled by car, disappearing like a wisp of smoke. Immediately, Bo Jinyan and Jian Yao got into their car. Bo Jinyan gripped the handle on the car door as Jian Yao gnashed her teeth, stomped on the gas, and began to chase.

Although Jian Yao was driving steadily, she rarely drove quickly, much less about street racing. While he remained hot on the suspect's tail, he still collided with many things on the roadside with a loud, clattering noise. It was a dangerous pursuit, yet Bo Jinyan was very calm, and even said, in an indifferent manner, “I never imagined you would drive like a little tiger.”

He could still joke calmly at a time like this! Some of Jian Yao's tension from the start started to dissipate. However, he still frowned and said, quickly, “How did this happen? Special police officers are impersonators? How do they know our action plan?”

Bo Jinyan calmly said, “It seems that Zhu Tao's conclusion is correct. We were both alone on this journey, and we only communicated with Zhu Tao once. We were also very careful not to leave any traces, and we were not followed. However, Zhu Tao's men and the criminals had engaged in many confrontations; his men had been watched and attacked. So, it is not impossible that the information is leaked. In addition, news of two special police officers is not something that is completely confidential, documents and forms will be forwarded between departments and across levels. They are also supervised and imitated.”

Jian Yao was silent.

When she first heard Bo Jinyan explain her comprehensive plan, she thought that even though the road ahead was dangerous and complicated, as long as they followed her plan, she thought that, there was definitely no mountain that they could not climb. Unexpectedly, on the first day, something unexpected happened. This situation is even more dangerous than when they were dealing with flower cannibals in America.

He held the steering wheel with one hand and suddenly clasped Bo Jinyan's hand tightly with the other. Bo Jinyan was surprised, and raised her head.

Bo Jinyan was silent for a moment before she replied, “Oke,”

They've caught up!

In front of them was an abandoned pier by the river. That person was probably so panicked that he fled to this dead end. Very calmly, Jian Yao said, “Jinyan, help me hold the wheel, and listen to my instructions.” Bo Jinyan replied, “Oke,” and holding the wheel. Jian Yao pulled out her weapon and shouted quickly, “15 degrees again!” The steering wheel rotates exactly 15 degrees and they take a shortcut that brings them closer to the suspect vehicle! Jian Yao's expression was cold and severe as she fired her weapon.

Peng ! The glass on the driver's side broke. Their opponent might be dumbfounded, but in a shocking demonic caring gesture, he leaned out the window and turned to look at them. Laughing badly, he shot at them!

There was a peng sound, followed by a car brake. Jian Yao shouted silently — this is not good, their tires have been shot! But, it was within this millisecond that Jian Yao saw the opportunity and took it. He aimed right at the suspect's back and fired. His car veered hard and hit a row of fences. Finally it stopped with the hood completely destroyed.

Jian Yao let out a gentle sigh, took back the steering from Bo Jinyan, and stopped her car slowly. Although Bo Jinyan could not see, she had heard what happened. He said, “Good once.” Jian Yao replied, “Am I not the best criminal investigator among your subordinates right now?” Bo Jinyan replied, “Of course.” Jian Yao pulled him as they walked towards the suspect's car.

As they got closer, he released Bo Jinyan and raised his weapon to walk forward cautiously.

A lot of rubbish and rubbish piled up on the dock. The suspect's car crashed into a messy cargo. No need to be careful because the suspect in the driver's seat is dead. Jian Yao sighed and picked up the document box next to his hand. As a precaution, he extracted the stack of information Zhu Tao had given him, put it in the inner pocket of his jacket and closed it. He checked the man's pocket but found nothing else, except a delicate tattoo of a white snake on his right arm. The meandering snake looked nimble, yet extremely evil at the same time. He pondered over it for a moment before telling Bo Jinyan about his discovery. Bo Jinyan looked pensive.

The car they rented was deflated and could not drive. His immediate priority was to return as soon as possible to touch Zhu Tao's headquarters and the police force, understand what had happened today, then continue his plan. After some discussion, Jian Yao and Bo Jinyan finally moved the body to the rear passenger seat, then turned the suspect's car around to push him back.

It was sunset, and the dim sunlight shone on the water. The surroundings were filled with trash and trash, making this place seem like an abandoned world. Driving slowly, Jian Yao followed the way out of the pier. This location was already quite remote, and it seemed even further away now that there was not a single vehicle other than their own.

An inexplicable uneasy feeling appeared in Jian Yao's heart.

Then, he heard Bo Jinyan, by his side, slowly saying, “Jian Yao, we will probably face even greater danger.”

Jian Yao clenched the steering wheel tightly as she listened to him continue speaking. “This criminal is clearly the leader of two copycats of the special police force. His actions today could be said to be bold and well-planned. He was shrewd and fearless, and definitely not a child. Why is he driving to this dead-end dock? I don't think he'll choose the wrong route due to panic.”

A chill swept through Jian Yao's heart.

Then . . .is it to lure them into a trap?

Or is there another conspiracy?

Who is the enemy they are facing right now? Before they met Zhu Tao, to what extent had the evil pond in this place been stirred, so that when they arrived, they would be immediately involved? How much do their opponents know about them? What do they know about the master plan of the police force? What counterattack plan have they made?

Hand Buddha, masked killer, Zhu Tao, spy, Smiling Snake. . What kind of situation are they facing now?

Nothing is clear.

It was then that the sound of the engine was heard in front of them; from the noise, there were several cars.

Jian Yao's car gradually stopped.

Four black cars from different brands blocked their way on the narrow pier road. Then, more than ten people got out of the car. Compared to the two gangsters disguised as members of the special police force, the men in front of them did not seem to be trying to hide their identities and characters. Leather clothes, T-shirts, rough, cruel – at a glance, this is a cruel gang, should not be fooled.

Jian Yao gripped her gun tightly as her heart sank like a rock.

Then, a hand stretched out and held his and his gun. Bo Jinyan whispered into his ear, “From now on, whatever happens, stand behind me.”
