Chapter 91: The Gap
Outside the outpost, there had been no shooting from above for a while, so a team of patrolmen came up the slope under the cover of sporadic fire from below.
At this moment they had already walked almost halfway and had reached the second bend.
This is extremely dangerous. If anyone from the sentry post rushes out and shoots at them, these patrolmen may be killed or injured immediately.
After all, this is on a slope. Even if the patrolmen walking in front are wearing protective clothing and helmets, being hit on the limbs or face, or falling from it, can be fatal, and there is no way to retreat here.
If it was people from other commissioned companies who raided the sentry post, they would not have taken such a risk and would have waited for the real results to come out. However, the person who went up was Chen Chuan, the son of their own police department, and they simply did not have the face to hide behind.
At this moment, they suddenly saw something flying out from the sentry post. Their faces changed and they all lowered their bodies. But after a while, there was no movement. They looked up and saw that it was a head.
The head fell on the platform outside. Because it was slightly inclined, it continued to roll down after a while, and slid from the top, bouncing down the steep slope, and finally landed at the bottom.
When Wei Lao Hu saw it, he pushed his hat down with the muzzle of his gun and said, "Go and identify it quickly."
A patrolman immediately ran over and came back a moment later saying, "Captain, it's Tong Qianjiang!"
Wei Lao Hu perked up and said, "Didn't you admit your mistake?"
"No mistake! Even though some parts are broken, you can still tell it's there!"
Wei Lao Hu was overjoyed: "Well done!" He pointed his gun toward the sky and shouted, "Go up immediately! In this situation, Xiao Chuan must have the upper hand! We can't just stand here and watch!"
"Wait a moment."
He called out to everyone again and said fiercely, "I will lead the team myself!" Then he threw his hat to the ground and rushed towards the ramp with a pistol in hand.
After killing Tong Qianjiang, Chen Chuan swung his knife and turned around again. This time, he glanced upwards and saw the spider-like man. However, the latter seemed to be frightened and immediately crawled away from above his head and disappeared into the gap.
He looked forward again, and this time, only Fang Dawei was left in front of him.
It was unknown what kind of implants were in this person's body, so the blade was almost useless when it was slashed at him just now. Not only that, he had also hit him with great force, and there was a sense of slippage where it touched, as if it had no effect on this person.
Fang Dawei stood there, seemingly unnerved. He spoke up, "Young man, are these enough?" Seeing Chen Chuan's gaze, he repeated, "These people should be enough for you to report back, right?"
Chen Chuan stared at him without saying anything.
Seeing that he remained silent, Fang Dawei slowly opened his arms and said, "To be honest, this implant has greatly limited my strength. It's as if all the strength I've cultivated over the past twenty years has vanished. But at least it has made me invulnerable to swords and guns. You can't cut me with your sword, and even those bullets won't help me."
At this time, Doctor Lin, who had been leaning to the side and seemed to have no presence at all, suddenly spoke up: "You are just in the adaptation period. After the adaptation period is over, your strength will slowly recover. Tong Baitao adapted much faster than you. Of course, it is also because his implant is a finished product, while yours is just a test product."
Fang Dawei said, "Even if I want to recover, it will take time." He turned to Chen Chuan and said, "To be honest, without these brothers, it's easier for me to leave alone. Now, as long as you let me go, I won't seek revenge on you in the future, and I don't have the ability to do so. Because I need to avoid certain people, I won't appear in Yangzhi City again."
He could see that Chen Chuan was very fast and had great strength. Even if he couldn't kill him, it would not be difficult to stop him. When a large number of people came up, there would be plenty of ways to deal with him, even a net could be used to catch him. And if Chen Chuan let him go, he was sure that he could rush out while the patrolmen below were not prepared.
He added, "Hey, we robbed a bank before and stole a lot of cash. We've got it buried in a safe place. I can tell you the address, or I can take you there later. You can use the money to live the life you want. You don't have to worry about it. Who would care if we went to another city?"
At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps slowly moving outside. He said, "It seems that the people below are coming up. How about it, have you thought it through?
If you really try to stop me, it will be a life-or-death struggle. I will definitely drag some people down with me before I die. Hmm? Do you think I will use force?"
He smiled, shook his head, and said, "No, that's too low-level. I will only reveal a secret in front of all of you, a secret that Molan Company doesn't want outsiders to know. And by then, what do you think Molan Company's reaction will be?"
Chen Chuan turned his head and shouted to the outside, "Don't come in!"
There was a pause outside, and after a moment, Wei Lao Hu's voice came in, saying, "Xiao Chuan, is that you? What's the situation in there?"
Chen Chuan said, "The situation is under control. Uncle Wei, trust me, don't come in yet."
Wei Lao Hu's voice immediately said, "Okay, Uncle Wei will listen to you. Xiao Chuan, if you need anything, just let me know. If there's anything, the brothers in the police station will help you!"
Fang Dawei smiled at this time and looked at Chen Chuanshuo. "It seems you have thought it through. Very good. I will keep my promise and tell you where the money is hidden. You must know that as long as I am alive, Molan Company will not do anything to you, because doing so will not prevent the news from leaking out."
Chen Chuan then said slowly, "I was just thinking about something."
"What's up?"
Fang Dawei was a little surprised. He added, "I have to remind you that the people from Molan Company are on their way. I don't have much time to waste here. If you have anything to say, you must ask as soon as possible. Hmm? You don't want to know that secret, do you?"
He smiled and said, "If you really want to know, I can tell you."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "I'm thinking, even though your implants are bulletproof and cover your entire body, they can't stay that way 24/7. After all, you need to breathe."
Fang Dawei's expression changed slightly, and then his eyes turned cold. "What do you mean by this?"
At this time, Doctor Lin in the corner looked over with interest.
Chen Chuanshuo said, "I just observed you while you were talking. Although the implant in your body is attached, it requires a certain amount of consciousness on your part to function.
When you need to breathe, you have to force them to stretch outwards, leaving a certain gap to let in oxygen from outside. At that time, they are relatively weak, and only when you hold your breath and tighten your grip do they become difficult to penetrate.
Doctor Lin clapped his hands softly and praised, "Well said, well said. Young man, you observe very carefully."
Fang Dawei's face turned completely cold, and at the same time, a chill rose in his heart. He said, "So what?"
Chen Chuanyi gripped the hilt of the knife, slowly raised his arm, pointed the tip of the knife at Fang Dawei, and said slowly: "This means that your implant protection is not impenetrable, so don't talk about invulnerability."
Fang Dawei sneered and said, "Then it seems that we can't reach an agreement. I can't beat you now, but it's easy for me to say a few words to you. It seems that you don't care about the lives of those people in the police station at all?"
Chen Chuan said calmly: "You don't have that chance." After that, he strode forward, raised the Xuejun Knife in his hand, and slashed at Fang Dawei.
Fang Dawei retreated quickly, but the experimental implant seemed to be encasing him in a layer of restraint. While protecting him, it also reduced his speed and reflexes to far less than before the implant. His strength was now only 30% less than normal, and he had no choice but to withstand Chen Chuan's sword strikes.
He said that he could tell the secret himself, but in fact what Chen said was right. When they started fighting, with his own movements unfolding and the sword slashing, it was impossible for him to utter a complete sentence.
Watching the knife light flashing around him, he subconsciously held his breath to maximize the defensive power of the implant. At the same time, he was waiting for a gap in the attack so that he could breathe in oxygen.
But he soon found something wrong. Chen Chuan's knife could be fast or slow, with an indescribable rhythm, and it always hit him at the uncomfortable points. In this situation, he couldn't breathe at all.
So he could only try his best to avoid it and find an opportunity.
But it was no use. Chen Chuan's speed and strength were far superior to his. Whenever he tried to break away, the knife followed him like a shadow, as if it was stuck to him.
However, due to the intense exercise, he consumed more oxygen. So after holding his breath for a long time, he realized that he would suffocate to death sooner or later if he continued like this. He could only try to expand the membrane and take a breath.
Chen Chuan's eyes flashed at this moment, and just as he inhaled and relaxed, the tip of the knife moved forward and immediately stabbed Fang Dawei in the chest and shoulder. The latter couldn't help but take a few steps back. He subconsciously reached out to wipe it, but found his hands covered in blood. He couldn't help but feel shocked and angry.
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "It seems to be useful."
Fang Dawei turned around and ran to the second floor, but Chen Chuan followed him and slashed his knee with a knife. He staggered and fell to the ground. He crawled a few more steps, grabbed a gun from the ground, turned around and fired two shots at Chen Chuan.
Chen Chuan saw clearly that Fang Dawei's self-control was very poor, and he didn't even aim the gun, so he had no intention of covering himself or dodging, and no one knew where the bullets flew to.
He walked forward, raised his knife and chopped down, again and again. Every time, Fang Dawei had just gotten up when he was chopped down again.
Whenever Fang Dawei tried to breathe, a knife would slash down rapidly, cutting through the covering membrane. Not long after, Fang Dawei was covered in blood, and the clothes on his body and the implanted scales were shattered. He could no longer get up and just lay there gasping for breath.
Chen Chuan took two steps to the side, picked up a rope from the ground with the tip of his knife, walked over, and knelt on Fang Dawei's still somewhat slippery back.
He first used the rope to circle the man's crotch and armpits, then circled it around his neck several times, then stood up and dragged Fang Dawei to the second floor.
Fang Dawei seemed to realize what he was going to do. A look of fear appeared in his eyes. He grabbed the rope with both hands and kicked with his feet.
After Chen Chuan reached the second floor, he tied one end of the rope to a box full of miscellaneous items, and then kicked Fang Dawei down.
