Naming Technique of the Night - Chapter 73

Chapter 73: Beat Him Up!

Lu Yuan sprinted madly, feeling excited despite the pain. Within the obscurity, he had finally locked onto the most important clue.

Glancing down, he saw that his thigh was bleeding. There were fragments of metal stuck in the flesh.

As it turned out, he was also injured.

But at this moment, the aching wound was trivial compared to the prospect of catching the criminal.

When he limped back to the front gate, he happened to see a van slowly approaching the entrance of Apartment No. 12.

As expected.

Four people carrying black burlap sacks leisurely walked out of the corridor. Those sacks appeared to be very heavy, even the fabrics were pulled and stretched out of form.

The head of the pack coldly looked at Lu Yuan. It was a little unexpected that Lu Yuan could react so quickly, but he ultimately paid it no mind.

They tossed the black sacks into the van and proceeded to sit inside.

One of them stayed out of the car, pulled out a handgun from behind his back and aimed at Lu Yuan.

The muscles in Lu Yuan’s legs burst with strength, completely changing his trajectory.

His body shifted ahead to the right; he had actually predicted the opponent’s move in advance and dodged the first shot!

People couldn’t move faster than a bullet, but they could move faster than the muzzle!

Lu Yuan’s sneakers were instantly torn apart, exposing his toes.

He ignored it and shouted with all his might, “Eagle, go knock him out for me!”

Then he sprang to his feet.

From the end of the street came the roaring sound of an engine. Inside the taxi that drifted out of nowhere, Eagle stepped on the accelerator to its maximum limit.

The trunk of the taxi swaying due to the force of inertia, Lu Yuan with his body suspended in the air, all geared up to launch an attack – if one could freeze this moment, it would certainly be significantly memorable.

Just like a frame from a hot-blooded segment of life.

Within the next second, the taxi rammed itself into the hood of the black van. Eagle slammed his head on the steering wheel and passed out.

The gunman froze for an instant.

When he turned back around, Lu Yuan’s silhouette was right before his eyes, smashing into him like a cannonball!

Before losing consciousness, he even heard the sound of bones breaking.

One of his allies wanted to get off the van to help but was instead kicked back inside by Lu Yuan, who had already climbed up on top of it.

His body bounced and crashed hard onto the other side of the van.

The next moment, everyone nearby heard Lu Yuan’s wrath. “Beat him up!”

…

In a spot hidden from Lu Yuan and the others, Qing Chen peered out the window through the gap in the curtain.

He was silently pondering the fact that Lu Yuan was also a superhuman. But he couldn’t determine whether the other had taken a genetic injection, or if he was an Awakened or cultivator.

Even if it was a genetic injection, there was still no way to know which type he had taken.

There were many categories of genetic injections. For example, Li Corporation alone had three types – FDE, FDD, and FEE.

What Qing Chen gave Liu Dezhu could maximize the development of offensive strength and lower body muscles to their full potential.

It could increase your power and running speed.

To put it simply, since Qing Chen knew Liu Dezhu would definitely spill as long as he got caught, he just had to make him run faster so others wouldn’t be able to catch him.

At this time, he saw the members of Kun Lun gathering around after finally subduing all the criminals.

An ambulance picked up the injured Lu Yuan along with Hu Xiaoniu, Zhang Tianzhen, and the others.

Based on Qing Chen’s observation, the students had no obvious signs of injury, seemingly only knocked unconscious.

Quite a few areas had been cordoned off, and professionals were checking all corners to see if there were still any explosives left by the criminals.

This was a serious felony, four suspects had already been arrested, but there were five more still on the run.

It also made Qing Chen fully realize that this group of people was far more cunning than he had imagined.

Far from being comparable to ordinary skirmishers.

Although individually, their fighting power was comparably weaker, they were organized and systematic in implementing their plan.

Of course, Qing Chen suspected there was someone with considerable strength among the five remaining suspects.

He turned back to smile at Jiang Xue and Li Tongyun, saying, “It’s fine, it’s over now. But we shouldn’t go out for the time being, so let’s just eat in peace. ”

Jiang Xue looked at the young man in front of her. “Thank you, without you, Xiaoyun

A nickname, coming from the word “Xiao” (literally means “little”, usually used for people much younger than oneself) and “Yun” (the last character of her name)

and I would’ve gotten into trouble… I’ll go and warm up the dishes first.”

When Jiang Xue finished cooking, the three of them had not dared eat, so the food was now cold.

In the living room, Li Tongyun was staring at Qing Chen. She always felt that this brother was different from other people; no matter the time or place, he was able to turn calamities into miracles.

“Brother Qing Chen, how did you get Kun Lun to come,” said Li Tongyun, blinking her eyes.

Qing Chen laughed, “I summoned them with my mind.”  He knew he had revealed a lot of things today. Outsiders might not be able to figure out anything, but with these details, Li Tongyun would eventually guess what was happening behind the scenes.

However, Qing Chen didn’t seem to mind if the little girl found out some of his secrets.

He patted her on the head and said, “Are you still afraid?”

“Just a little bit.” Li Tongyun asked, “Brother Qing Chen, I know you don’t want to be discovered, but if I run into danger in the Inner World, will you come to save me?”

Qing Chen thought for a while and answered, “Yes.”

Li Tongyun nodded contentedly, but soon after grumbled under her breath, “It’s fine if you don’t reveal your identity to others, but to hide it even from me is too much. I’m just a kid. What bad intentions could a kid possibly have?”

Qing Chen smiled, not giving a response.

A sophisticated hunter will disguise himself as prey.

Danger had become a frequent companion ever since the Inner World was unleashed upon them.

Qing Chen always believed that before he could attain true power, pretending to be weaker was always the right choice.

Tonight, Li Tongyun and Jiang Xue would definitely find it peculiar. How did he manage to call Kun Lun over?

They didn’t know about Liu Dezhu coming to the scene, and this secret was also something Kun Lun wouldn’t casually reveal to the public.

So for the time being, Li Tongyun wouldn’t be able to connect the cause and effect together.

But if one day she found out about Liu Dezhu, even if she couldn’t completely guess the truth, she would get very close to it.

Jiang Xue stood in the kitchen, her fingers still trembling slightly.

Had Li Tongyun suddenly turned off the TV,  had Qing Chen not reminded her to continue cooking, they would’ve been dead.

Jiang Xue returned with the hot dishes. For some reason, this gentle aunt didn’t seem to be too scared anymore, her face brimming with a smile. “Time to eat! Too bad the two of you are not allowed to drink yet, otherwise, we really should open a bottle of beer to celebrate surviving this disaster! ”

Li Tongyun joined in the fun and said, “Brother Qing Chen isn’t that young anymore, he can drink!”

Qing Chen took a bite of food, but his expression became strange.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Xue hurriedly clipped a piece of egg into her mouth and immediately found out what was wrong.

She had been too frightened while cooking and forgotten to put any salt in.

Falling speechless, her face turned red.

Qing Chen quickly said, “It’s normal to be afraid at that time, I was afraid as well.”

Li Tongyun muttered on the side, “Who would believe that you were scared?”

The unappetizing food didn’t dampen the atmosphere, instead, it made it livelier.
