"Now that you mention it, I'm quite curious too." Lin Guyi scrambled to his feet, took the dagger, wiped it on his clothes, and was quite satisfied with the gleaming blade. He looked at Yu Wei, then at Qin Ye, and said thoughtfully, "Do you think he could survive if this knife had stabbed him in the heart?"

“You can give it a try.” Qin Ye adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, glanced at Yu Wei casually, and pondered for a moment: “Although you can’t get the authorization, getting a test subject is still a good deal.”

"As expected, no one can compare to you, Uncle Qin, when it comes to being perverted."

Lin Gu weighed the dagger in his hand, gave Lin Gang a wink, and then restrained Yu Wei.

"Lin Gu, for Xiao Zhen's sake, give me a quick death?" Yu Wei licked his lips, broke free from Lin Gang's grasp, grabbed Lin Gu's wrist, and pulled his hand to press a sharp dagger against his chest: "I'm afraid of pain, so hurry up and do it."

"Yu Wei, should I call you stupid, or should I praise you for being unyielding to the death?"

"That's your opinion, whatever."

Yu Wei smiled, gripped Lin Gu's wrist tightly, and pulled him forward sharply. The sharp dagger plunged into his chest, and blood gushed out, soaking his clothes.

Warm blood flowed between his fingers. Lin Gu stood there, clenching his fists, letting Yu Wei hold his wrists as the dagger completely disappeared into his body.

"Lin Gu, don't get involved with them anymore..."

"Nianyu...he...is waiting for you...to come back."

Yu Wei used the last of her strength to lean close to Lin Gu's ear, her voice as soft as a feather, "Teacher Zuo... there, there is... what you want..."

A few clouds drifted across the azure sky. It was tranquil, without a breath of wind, and empty, devoid of any living creature. The surroundings were eerily quiet, save for Chu Sheng's furious shouts!

"We can't let him die!"

Qin Ye pushed Lin Gu aside, took out a hemostatic medicine, and forcibly fed it into Yu Wei's mouth.

Why did you actually stab him in the heart?

"Otherwise what?" Lin Gu wiped the blood splattered on his face, slowly stood up, and nonchalantly kicked Yu Wei. "Let him escape alive and go get reinforcements?"

"Didn't I tell you?" Qin Ye sighed and shook his head. "Fine, I'll try to see if I can save him."

"Why save him?" Zhou Qi asked, puzzled. He stepped forward and patted Lin Gu on the shoulder. "Well done. When dealing with enemies, you should get rid of them as soon as possible."

"By the way, what did Yu Wei say to you at the end?"

The pressure on his shoulder increased, and Lin Gu turned his head, making no attempt to hide his gaze from Zhou Qi's probing eyes, and shrugged; "He said he would haunt me even as a ghost, and curse my whole family."

"Anything else?"

"They advised me to turn back before it's too late..."

"He didn't say anything about permissions?"

"Just like his father, he's stubborn even when he's about to die, refusing to say anything." Lin Gu frowned and sighed. "Letting him die like this would be too easy on him."

"You really didn't say anything?"

Even if you beat Zhou Qi to death, he would never believe that there was no solution to the frozen permissions. But now that the chip is gone, he can't exactly go to headquarters to arrest people.

Although we can't go to headquarters to arrest people, we can... lure them here.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qi's eyes lit up, and he withdrew his hand from Lin Gu's shoulder.

"I went to change my clothes, but I was covered in blood and filthy."

Lin Gu disdainfully took off his coat and threw it on the ground, then strode away with his hands in his pockets.

When they reached a secluded spot, Lin Gu's legs went weak, and he almost knelt on the ground. He managed to steady himself by holding onto the wall, and leaned against it, breathing slowly.

After a long while, he shakily took out a cigarette, but his hand trembled and the cigarette fell to the ground. This happened several times, leaving a pile of cigarettes on the ground.

"Fuck your grandpa's grave, you motherfucker!"

Lin Gu shook the empty cigarette box, crumpled it into a ball, threw it on the ground, and stepped over it.
