Chapter 73: Explosion!

A taxi slowly stopped in front of Courtyard 4 on Xingshu Road.

While Liu Dezhu was paying, the young driver casually asked, "That’ll be 14 for the ride. Say, this used to be the housing for government officials, what are you doing here?"

Liu Dezhu scanned the QR code for payment and said without thinking, "I'm here to get the gold bar…"

All he could think about at this time was the gold bar, but he quickly regretted it as soon as the words came out of his mouth and quickly left the car.

As he walked into the neighborhood, the driver put on a headset and said, "Calling Kun Lun, Sparrow said he's here for a gold bar."

Lu Yuan, who had been long waiting in the shadows of the tree put out his cigarette, "Gold bar? Did he make a deal with a time traveler?"

"Perhaps. With his special status in the Inner World, he could easily be useful to many people," the Kun Lun member analyzed, "It's common to pay for resources in the Inner World. Captain Lu, wasn't there a case in Tai City recently where the buyer didn't make the payment after taking the medicine? The seller nearly killed that guy, and our coworkers there had to deal with this troublesome case."

"Yeah," Lu Yuan nodded, "It's possible. Damn, I had to guard him in the middle of the night in case he got kidnapped, yet he's here to get gold bars."

In the night, Liu Dezhu carefully walked into the neighborhood while looking around carefully, much like a thief.

Except, he didn't know that many pairs of eyes were silently watching him.

As Liu Dezhu walked toward Apartment No.12, more than twenty Kun Lun members circled closely in the shadows, with him in the center.

Lu Yuan watched coldly from the side, thinking that Mr. Zheng would never recruit such a guy.

Now he was wondering if Li Shutong was blind too when he chose Liu Dezhu.

The reality was always a slap in the face. Just this morning, Liu Dezhu was still showing off his abnormal power in front of the press, and naturally, people thought the only way to get abilities in Prison 18 would be from Li Shutong.

"Huh? Why’d he squat down? What is he doing here beside Apartment No.12?" One of the Kun Lun members asked.

Liu Dezhu looked over and saw that Liu Dezhu was indeed squatting next to Apartment No.12, motionlessly.

His two hands were crossed in his sleeves like an idiot waiting for a roasted sweet potato to be served.

"What is this kid trying to do now?" asked someone.

"Shh," said Lu Yuan suddenly.

He sensed a hint of danger.

…

As time passed by, the entire world seemed to fall into silence.

At this time, a man wearing a black jacket walked out from the shadows of the apartment's entrance.

He had a Bluetooth earbud in his ear. While being alert, he looked around silently, his right hand was hovering around his waist.

The man's palm was out in the open, and one could clearly see his strong and powerful mechanical arm.

As his glance swept across, he also turned and saw Liu Dezhu who was squatting nearby and looking at him sternly.

Instantly, as the two pairs of eyes met, the surrounding atmosphere became eerily quiet.

The thug looked at Liu Dezhu. As if the air became thick, it contained an invisible sense of oppression.

After confirming again that no one was around, he walked toward Liu Dezhu, and the hydraulic gears under his clothes resonated in the air.

Liu Dezhu just stared as the mysterious figure approached him.

The thug walked while started chatting with Liu Dezhu, "Friend, how come you seem so familiar. You are…"

Liu Dezhu was silent for two seconds before he twitched his mouth and started drooling from the corner of his lips, "Ah ah ah ah…"

He started walking away as if he didn't know what was going on.

The thug pressed on his Bluetooth earbud, "Found someone suspicious."

As he was talking, Liu Dezhu walked faster and faster until he started running in the end, "Ah ah ah ah…"

Soon, he disappeared.

The thug was about to chase after him, but after a few steps, he stopped and turned back into the apartment building.

The shadows under the trees swayed. In the dark, Lu Yuan looked up.

At the same time, behind a second-floor window, another person was also looking at him coldly.

"They found us. Surround them." Lu Yuan said firmly, "Be careful, they can be very dangerous."

Kun Lun members slowly approached Apartment No.12, but suddenly, the sound of broken glass came from the other side of the building, and the person staring at Lu Yuan also turned around and disappeared into the room.

Lu Yuan's expression changed, "They’re trying to escape from the back window!"

The person who appeared was surely the suspect they were after!

As soon as Lu Yuan came here, he realized that Jiang Xue was living on the second floor!

They split into two groups and wrapped in from both sides of the building.

Just as Lu Yuan and his group turned around the corner, sparks burst out of a metal trash can.

Then came a loud bang

Lu Yuan only had time to use his arms to cover his neck and head before he was knocked back by the powerful wind.

The noise from the exposition soared through the air, and the metal trash can was in countless pieces.

The criminals had long repaired the explosives.

They sneaked it into the trash can before going up into Jiang Xue's apartment, so it could be used as a backup.

In case they were found, they would break the back window to attract the pursuers while using the explosives to cause damage and chaos.

With that, they could get more time to escape.

This was carefully plotted, as if someone was looking at all this from behind the scenes, controlling where everything is going.

Lu Yuan stood back up from the ground and patted a teammate beside him, "Are you alright?"

People slowly got up, and someone reported, "We only have one person that got wounded in the legs by metal fragments, no other injuries."

Everyone probably got a mild concussion, but no one had time to care about any of that at this time.

"We need to follow them," said Lu Yuan, "If we lose them now, more time travelers would be in danger!"

Everyone quickly headed toward the back of the building, but Lu Yuan suddenly stopped, "Hold up!"

He felt that something was wrong.

The criminals came to kidnap time travelers, but from what he was told, their mechanical limbs weren't high-grade ones, and they couldn’t handle the shock of jumping down from the second floor.

Even if they somehow were fine, they wouldn't be able to carry another person with them!

Lu Yuan turned back. From the sound of glass breaking to the person on the second floor turning back and the explosives along the way, everything was distracting them away from the front door.

With the threat of explosives, no one would be thinking straight, and they would naturally head toward their original target.

That way, when they were all at the back of the building, the criminals would exit easily from the front doors!

"Quick, get to the front door, the hallway exit!" yelled Lu Yuan furiously.

One of the members asked, "Captain Lu, are we not going after them anymore?"

"Just follow my orders. Eagle, are you here yet?"

A voice came from the earbuds, "Almost, almost there!"

Lu Yuan started running at full speed because he knew that if he had the wrong decision, he would have just given the criminals a path to escape from the windows.

But he was confident in his decision!
