Chapter 366: Chapter 373: Killing Them All

Li Yifei’s eyes held a trace of surprise, the audacity to "cut off one’s arm to save the body" was not something anyone could easily do. This Qian Wanwei, with his training from J Country’s Yamaguchi Group, was truly ruthless.

However, ruthlessness was not always useful, it was only effective when the difference in strength was marginal. Unfortunately for Qian Wanwei, his power still fell far short of Li Yifei’s. Even though his unexpected move momentarily stunned Yifei for a split second, the lethal dagger inflicted no harm on Li Yifei.

Li Yifei didn’t dodge, but instead grabbed Qian Wanwei’s hand and pulled it sideways. Qian Wanjun’s arm involuntarily intercepted between Yifei and Qian Wanwei’s dagger.

Qian Wanwei had committed himself to an irreversible attack, but coupled with Li Yifei’s astoundingly quick actions, the dagger ended up stabbing firmly into his own right arm, piercing through from one side to the other.

"Bang!" In that moment, Li Yifei unleashed a powerful kick. Qian Wanwei could only slightly dodge, avoiding a fatal blow, but still took the full brunt of Yifei’s kick.

The kick sent him flying several meters away until he slammed into a wall and came to a stop. He remained standing, with his left hand still firmly gripping the dagger, but his right arm placed oddly in front of his chest.

"You... so... strong..." Having said those three words, Qian Wanwei spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and then his body went limp and collapsed to the floor.

Li Yifei’s kick had not hit a vital spot, but the immense force behind it had still shaken Qian Wanwei’s internal organs. That he could speak those three words was already impressive, but then his eyes closed, and he limply slid to the ground, motionless.

Lin Qiong was simply dumbstruck by the scene. Qian Wanwei was so strong, yet he was so easily defeated by this mysterious man. How strong was this person, really? Lin Qiong found it beyond her imagination.

The five men who came with Qian Wanwei, all hardened by countless killings, found themselves unnerved at the sight of their comrade being dispatched so effortlessly by the man before them. Their faces turned exceedingly grim.

"Hmph, a bunch of little Japanese dare to run wild in Huaxia! They deserve to die!" Li Yifei snorted coldly, moving like a blur around the room, delivering punches that reverberated against flesh, before reappearing beside Lin Qiong.

It was only then that the five men slowly collapsed, limp. In a split second, Li Yifei had delivered a punch to each one, so fast it seemed as though he had thrown only a single punch.

"I don’t want others to know I did this," Li Yifei said indifferently, then turned to leave.

"Wait, if you don’t want others to know it was you, how am I supposed to explain this?" Lin Qiong quickly called out.

Li Yifei turned his head to look at Lin Qiong, furrowed his brow, and said, "These men resisted arrest. In the fight, you weren’t able to hold back and ended up killing them. It’s as simple as that."

"But... but..."

"There are no buts. If you want my help in the future, you better do as I say."

After speaking, Li Yifei had already dashed out of the storefront. By the time Lin Qiong ran out, there was no sign of him.

This left Lin Qiong feeling somewhat lost. This mysterious person always seemed to appear when she was in the gravest danger. She wondered if he was following her around the clock.

"Ah!" The thought made her face flush with embarrassment. That would mean the mysterious person had also witnessed her fooling around with Li Yifei.

"Thump!" Lin Qiong’s foot hit something. She immediately looked down and saw a box of condoms.

The presence of such an item in this place was not unusual, but Lin Qiong had an inkling that it was dropped by the mysterious man.

"No way, does this mysterious person actually use these?" Holding the box of condoms, Lin Qiong could not help but be astonished.

"Director Lin! What... what happened here?" A colleague’s voice jolted Lin Qiong out of her reverie, and she instinctively pocketed the box of condoms.

"Are you alright?" Lin Qiong quickly inquired.

"Just a bit dizzy, oh, these people..." The colleague finally noticed the bodies scattered on the ground—more than ten people, including his fellow officers and six criminals.

Remembering the mysterious man’s words, Lin Qiong had no choice but to respond, "These men knocked you down just now. I fought with them, and in the end, I managed to take them down. Check how they are."

The police officer checked over the scene with a tinge of nervousness, but as he continued, the sweat on his forehead began to stream down; all six of the people were dead.

When they had charged in, they had been taken down by the six without any opportunity to fight back, clearly indicating that these men were not weak. But for Lin Qiong to have killed them all by herself was like something out of a television drama featuring a female warrior; it was simply too impressive.

At this time, the rest of the police officers also gradually came to their senses and likewise discovered that all six criminals were dead.

Their reactions were similar to that of the first officer; they were all terrified, but they also held immense admiration for Lin Qiong. They had previously privately criticized Lin Qiong’s rapid promotion and suspected that the beautiful policewoman must have formed a connection with some high-ranking official, which was why she was promoted so quickly.

But now they realized that Lin Qiong truly had strength. With such skill, her promotion was completely justified.

With six lives at stake and the involvement of the Yamaguchi Group’s Qian Wanwei, Lin Qiong couldn’t simply handle the scene on her own; she immediately called Director Ning Changzheng. Ning Changzheng swiftly arrived at the scene with the criminal investigation team.

The recent kidnapping of Qian Wanjun had already put tremendous pressure on Ning Changzheng. This was a major criminal being taken during transport, a rare occurrence within the country, and four police officers had been killed, escalating the pressure. If he couldn’t solve this case, he would bear a significant responsibility, and he might even lose his position as director.

However, now that Qian Wanwei had been shot dead, at least there was an explanation to give.

The criminal investigation team inspected the scene and found the weapons of the criminals, along with several guns. They also confirmed Qian Wanwei’s identity from a bag he was carrying.

By a stroke of luck, Qian Wanjun had called Qian Wanwei just then, and the police immediately tracked Qian Wanjun’s location through the phone. It took less than two hours to capture him.

Qian Wanjun, previously a significant figure in smuggling, indeed had clout, but he only excelled in smuggling and lacked personal combat skills. Without Qian Wanwei, it was much easier for the police to apprehend him.

In the director’s office, Ning Changzheng personally poured a glass of water for Lin Qiong, took a deep breath, and said, "Little Lin, I really must thank you this time."

Lin Qiong, somewhat startled by the favor, replied, "Director Ning, this is what I should do as a police officer."

Ning Changzheng took a seat opposite Lin Qiong and said, "Little Lin, these criminals were so formidable that none of our Mile City police could handle them. Yet you managed to kill all six of them by yourself. You’ve truly earned a great deal of respect for our Mile City police force."

Lin Qiong’s face flushed red, and she clenched her teeth, "Director Ning, it wasn’t me who killed them; it was that mysterious person."

"I thought so," Ning Changzheng said with a slight smile.

"Director Ning, you already knew?" Lin Qiong asked in surprise.

Ning Changzheng lit a cigarette and said, "Although you’re quite good at martial arts, Little Lin, in our Mile City, you’re not the top, and Qian Wanwei was a master. How could you have defeated him, let alone killed all six of them?"

Lin Qiong hastily interjected, "Director Lin, even though the mysterious person’s actions technically broke the law by killing others, and no matter how strong he is, he shouldn’t have killed them so directly. But in that situation, to protect me and my colleagues, he had to kill them. So I’m asking, Director Ning, to keep this... under wraps."

Ning Changzheng laughed heartily, "You worry too much, Little Lin. I not only won’t pursue this matter, but I won’t even bring it up. That mysterious person, although ruthless, has shown from his actions he was protecting you and helping you. He hasn’t been known to act maliciously. Such a person is very beneficial to our Mile City police force. Why would I pursue him? Heh, since he helped you this way, the credit still goes to you."

Lin Qiong insisted, "No, no, I can’t accept this credit."

Ning Changzheng chuckled, "This case has caused quite a stir. Now that we’ve apprehended both Qian Wanjun and Qian Wanwei, we have to report the merits. When reporting, should we explain that it was done by a mysterious person... or will we say you did it?"

Lin Qiong’s mouth twitched. Considering the mysterious person certainly wouldn’t covet any credit, and even if she told others, it was unlikely they would believe her. Moreover, mentioning the mysterious person could bring unnecessary trouble for him.

So, after weighing the options, Lin Qiong could only reply with a wry smile, "Taking such unclear credit makes my face turn red even now."

Ning Changzheng roared with laughter, "Why blush over it? Since that mysterious person has helped you to this extent, you’ll surely solve many more significant cases in the future. There isn’t much difference between those cases and the ones you’ll solve."

In truth, Ning Changzheng had considered another possibility—that the mysterious person was a man. For a man to go to such lengths to help Lin Qiong indicated that he must share a deep connection with her. Knowing that Lin Qiong had no family background to speak of, what the man represented was already quite clear.
