Chapter 167: Failed Night Attack
As the night deepened and the candlelight gradually dimmed, a black shadow passed through the guards and stopped in front of the dark cabin.
The leading man made a gesture, and the three men following him immediately dispersed to the corners of the wooden house to prevent the people inside from escaping.
Luo Rui said that to join the superpower team, one must pass the team's entrance test. There happened to be someone here that Shen Shuai had to get rid of, so she gave this task to him.
If the mission could be successfully completed, she could put in a few good words for him in front of Shen Shuai and directly give him the position of deputy captain of the Sixth Team - since Shen Shuai had spoken, the other members of the Sixth Team would not dare to object.
The person that Shen Shuai must eliminate is in the slums? Could it be that he is an opponent during the struggle for power, and now that he has fallen on hard times, Shen Shuai still refuses to let him go?
But since he is in the slums, he must not be a powerful person.
Seeing the other three people arrive at the designated location, Jiang Yu whistled, quietly pushed open the door of the wooden house, and slipped into the wooden house.
The room wasn't big, so I could see everything going on inside at a glance. Once my eyes adjusted to the light, I could see the bed clearly—it was bulging, clearly someone was there.
Jiang Yu used his special ability and threw everything onto the bed. After making sure that the man was motionless, he tiptoed over and lifted the quilt.
The man on the bed had been cut beyond recognition by the supernatural power. Blood stained the bed red, slid to the ground, and dripped through the cracks in the wooden floor.
Jiang Yu checked the man's breath and confirmed that he was dead, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems to be a woman?" Jiang Yu murmured, turning around and walking out, "Could it be Shen Shuai's little lover?"
…
In the sanatorium, the doctor on rounds walked through the wards one by one, stopped at the door of Wei Yage's ward, and knocked.
"Captain Wei, have you rested?"
There was no sound in the room.
He continued to knock gently: "Captain Wei?"
Still no one answered.
The young nurse following behind the doctor whispered, "Did you take a break?"
The doctor frowned and gently pushed open the door.
"Huh?" The young nurse looked over and exclaimed, "Where's the person?"
The patient can't move around right now. The wheelchair is by the bed, and no one has come to visit him today...
The attending physician pushed his glasses, as if he had thought of something, and said to the nurse, "Notify everyone immediately that Captain Wei is missing. Have everyone go look for him!"
The young nurse was a little confused: "Notify everyone?"
"Yes, now, immediately!" Otherwise, everyone in the hospital might be in trouble.
Frightened by the doctor's stern expression, the young nurse nodded repeatedly: "I'll go right away!"
…
After dealing with Shen Shuai's enemies, Jiang Yu, who thought he had passed the team's assessment, breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and pushed the door open to leave.
A young girl passed by the door and their eyes met. The girl glanced inside, opened her mouth and let out a terrified scream.
"Murder! Murder!"
"Shut up!" Jiang Yu, also frightened by the girl's scream, first reacted to kill her.
However, before he could do anything, the lights in the surrounding wooden houses all lit up.
Someone wandered out of the house, and the girl quickly ran behind the person and continued screaming: "Murder! Murder! Kill! Kill!!!!"
As the shrill screams rang out above the slums, the psychics guarding outside were alarmed and rushed over here.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Yu looked around and found an empty gap to escape.
Before running away, he gave the girl who had caught him in the act a warning look, thinking about coming back and killing her to silence her.
However, when their eyes met, the girl didn't seem flustered at all. Instead, she smiled at him with a sarcastic look in her eyes.
This girl... looks familiar? Jiang Yu hesitated for a moment and paused.
"He's going to run away!"
The girl pointed in the direction he left and shouted again. At the same time, all kinds of supernatural powers came roaring from all directions.
The moment he lost consciousness, he was blown away by the explosion of supernatural power and hit the wall of the wooden house.
Jiang Yu had a broken hand and was unable to move. He struggled to get up, and when he looked up, he saw a sharp blade with a cold glow.
"Don't even think about running away. If you dare, we will kill you." The man standing in front of him was young, wearing the uniform of the base's superpower team. The look he gave him was like looking at a dead object, without any emotion.
More and more people gathered to watch the fun, making the area so crowded that no one could get in.
The slum residents, who were not dressed very brightly, pointed at the man lying on the ground and whispered, but no one came forward.
"What's going on?" Members of the sixth team, who were guarding the perimeter, arrived one after another, and someone asked in confusion, "Is someone killing someone in the slums?"
"Yeah." The girl who had called for help earlier hid behind the boy and pointed inside the house. "I just saw it! It's covered in blood! He killed this guy! He even wanted to kill me to silence me!"
The girl spoke very quickly, like pouring beans, chattering non-stop, not giving Jiang Yu any chance to interrupt.
"That's him! He came out of the house! There was blood on his body!" The girl said, and emphasized, "Besides, he's not even a resident here!"
"you……"
Before the guard could say anything, a voice came from outside the crowd, so powerful that it instantly drowned out all other unnecessary sounds.
"What happened?"
The crowd was startled and automatically made way.
A man in a black uniform walked through the crowd and came up to a few people.
Behind him were the surprised Luo Rui and the absent-minded Jiang Ran.
"Deputy Captain Zhong, Captain Luo." The on-duty personnel stood at attention and saluted.
Zhong Qian nodded with a cold expression and asked again, "What happened here?"
The guard also looked bewildered: "I just came in and don't know the situation yet."
"This man just killed someone and is trying to get away. Sir, you have to do something for the deceased!" The girl, who was like a trumpet, spoke again, "This is the man!"
"Killed someone?" Glancing at Luo Rui, whose face was slightly pale, Jiang Ran curiously stepped over Jiang Yu and pushed open the door of the wooden house.
A strong smell of blood wafted out.
"Eh~" Jiang Ran raised her hand to cover her nose and looked back at Zhong Qian, "Deputy Captain Zhong, do you want to come in and take a look?"
Thinking of his job, Zhong Qian didn't really want to go in.
Wei Yage was missing - the people in the hospital panicked and immediately reported it to the Military Control Commission.
He has now received orders from the captain and is searching the entire city for Wei Yage's whereabouts.
The slums were not within his search area.
Death in slums is a common occurrence.
He didn't want to waste time here.
But... looking at the excited Jiang Ran, he didn't dare to refuse.
What bad luck! He was working so hard that he had to run into this young lady. She followed him all the way like a dog-skin plaster, saying that they were taking a walk after dinner.
If he hadn't been afraid of being punished by the captain and worried about being tortured by Professor Si, he would have knocked the man unconscious and thrown him into the grass by the roadside.
Alas. Zhong Qian sighed helplessly and resigned himself to his fate, following Jiang Ran into the wooden house.
Jiang Ranran was obviously very interested in the so-called murder case. If anything happened to her here, Captain Shen would definitely skin her alive.
