In front of the gate at 4 Xingshu Road, a taxi slowly came to a halt.

As Liu Dezhu paid, the young driver, casually remarked, “14 yuan, handsome guy, this used to be a big government compound. What brings you here?”

While scanning the QR code, Liu Dezhu said subconsciously, “I’m here to pick up some gold bars…”

At that moment, his mind was full of thoughts about the gold bars, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he regretted it and hurriedly shut up and got out of the car.

After he entered the community, the young driver put on his headset, “Calling Kunlun, Sparrow says he’s here to pick up gold bars.”

Lu Yuan, who had already entered the community and was hiding in the shadows, stubbed out his cigarette, “Picking up gold bars? Could it be that he has struck a deal with a Time Traveler?”

“Possibly, he has a special identity in the Inner World, capable of helping many,” analyzed a Kunlun member, “If someone is paying for resources from the Inner World, that’s pretty normal. Road Team, remember a few days ago in Taicheng, there was a case where the buyer received the medicine but didn’t pay the balance and nearly got someone killed. Our brothers in Kunlun there had a real headache.”

“Hmm,” Lu Yuan nodded, “It must be that kind of situation. Damn it, I have to stay up in the middle of the night to guard him, to prevent him from being kidnapped by suspects, and here he is, coming to pick up gold bars.”

In the darkness, Liu Dezhu carefully crept deeper into the community, glancing left and right, like a thief sneaking into a village to steal chickens.

But he was unaware of how many people were silently observing him.

As Liu Dezhu headed towards Building 12, over twenty Kunlun members silently interwove their paths forward, always keeping him at the core.

Lu Yuan watched coldly from the side, thinking no wonder Boss Zheng didn’t rate this guy.

He also felt that Uncle Li Dong would be foolish to value him.

Yet reality was a bit face-slapping, as just that morning, Liu Dezhu had demonstrated extraordinary strength.

The only way for him to obtain superhuman abilities in Prison 18 was through Uncle Li Dong.

“Huh? Why is he squatting down, squatting in front of Building 12?” a Kunlun member wondered aloud.

Lu Yuan turned his head and saw with clarity that Liu Dezhu was squatting in front of Building 12, motionless.

The guy had his arms crossed inside his sleeves, looking like a fool waiting for roasted sweet potatoes.

“What the hell is this guy doing?” a Kunlun member whispered.

“Silence,” Lu Yuan suddenly said.

He sensed a dangerous atmosphere.

…

Time ticked by, and the whole world seemed to fall into a communications blackout.

But just then, from the shadow of the hallway, slowly emerged a man in a black jacket.

He wore a Bluetooth headset in his ear and scanned his surroundings silently with utmost alertness, his right hand resting subtly on his waist.

The man’s palm was exposed to the air, his metallic mechanical hand especially strong and powerful.

His gaze slowly swept around, and when he slowly turned his head, he saw Liu Dezhu squatting not far away, staring blankly at him.

For a moment, their eyes met, and the atmosphere turned eerily quiet.

The thug watched Liu Dezhu silently, the air thick with an invisible pressure.

After ensuring no one else was around, the thug took steps toward Liu Dezhu, his clothes emitting a faint hydraulic whirring sound with each step.

Liu Dezhu silently watched the man approach step by step.

As the thug walked, he spoke to Liu Dezhu, “Friend, why do you look so familiar to me? Are you…”

After two seconds of silence, Liu Dezhu twisted his mouth, drool also escaping, “Abba abba abba abba…”

While babbling, he pretended to casually turn and walk away.

The thug pressed his Bluetooth headset, “Something’s up.”

As the thug spoke, Liu Dezhu walked faster, eventually breaking into a run, “Abba abba abba…”

The sound of running footsteps faded into the distance.

The criminal initially wanted to chase after him, but suddenly, he stopped in his tracks as if he had discovered something and returned to the shadows of the stairwell.

Under the interlacing shadows of the trees in the residential area, Lu Yuan suddenly looked up in the dark.

At that moment, behind a second-floor window, someone was coldly watching him through the glass!

“We’ve been spotted, surround the area,” Lu Yuan said in a low voice, “Be careful, the opponent is extremely dangerous.”

Kunlun members slowly approached building number 12, but then a sound of shattering glass came from behind the building. The man who had been staring at Lu Yuan emotionlessly turned away from the window, disappearing from sight.

Lu Yuan’s expression changed: “They’re planning to escape by jumping out the windows at the back!”

The person who had just appeared was the fugitive suspect they were looking for!

Lu Yuan had been here before; he knew that the second floor was Jiang Xue’s residence!

They moved around to the back of building 12 from both sides, just as Lu Yuan and his team turned the corner at the stairwell.

At the end of the street, a tin garbage can suddenly burst into flames.

With a loud bang, Lu Yuan only had time to shield his neck and head with his arms before he and his team were blown away by a blast of hot air.

The explosion thundered into the sky, tearing the tin garbage can apart.

This was explosive material that the criminals had hidden beforehand.

They had secretly placed it inside the garbage can as a delaying tactic before stealthily infiltrating Jiang Xue’s home.

If their action was discovered, they would break the rear window to draw attention and then detonate the explosives on the road to cause injuries and chaos.

That way, everyone involved would have enough time to withdraw calmly.

The plan was meticulous, as if someone was coldly observing everything from behind the scenes, controlling the course of events.

Lu Yuan struggled to his feet from the ground, shook his head, and asked a team member beside him, “Any injuries?”

The team members got up from the ground: “Only one member was hit in the leg by a piece of metal; no one else was directly injured.”

All team members probably had slight concussions, but at that moment, they couldn’t worry too much about it.

“Hurry and chase,” Lu Yuan said in a low voice, “If we let this group get away, who knows how long it will take for Time Traveler to suffer!”

The Kunlun organization continued the chase around the back of the building, but Lu Yuan suddenly stopped: “Something’s not right!”

He felt something was amiss.

These criminals were here to kidnap Time Traveler, and as far as he knew, their mechanical limbs were not sophisticated enough to withstand the impact of jumping directly from the second floor.

Maybe the criminals could jump down themselves, but it definitely wouldn’t work with someone in tow!

Lu Yuan abruptly turned back, everything from the initial sound of breaking glass, the mysterious person on the second floor deliberately seen turning away, to the road explosives, were just to divert them from the front entrance.

Once everyone was affected by the explosion, with their minds in disarray, they would follow their initial target and have no time to think carefully.

This way, everyone went to chase at the back, allowing the criminals to easily walk out the front door!

“Follow me back!” Lu Yuan roared.

A team member asked, “Team Leader, aren’t we chasing them?”

“Stop talking, Sparrow, have you arrived?”

Someone spoke in the earpiece, “Almost there, almost there!”

Lu Yuan sprinted again, knowing if his judgment was wrong, that would mean personally allowing the criminals to escape from the back.

But he trusted his judgment!
