Chapter 732: Chapter 513: Another Faction Coming to Steal the Credit

After waiting for a few more minutes, a black official car drove over from a distance.

Liu Zheng felt a sense of relief, but when he saw the license plate number, his heart tightened again.

Although he couldn’t remember the license plate numbers 4399 and 8848, he was sure this wasn’t it.

After a moment of urgent thinking, Liu Zheng stuffed Garcia’s head into the Legendary Takeout Box and then ran towards the sewer without hesitation.

"Stop!"

The person in the passenger seat saw this, forced open the car door, jumped out, and chased after him.

The newcomer was wearing a dark blue uniform, similar in style to the 4399’s uniform, but with many differences in the details.

On his head, he also wore a dark blue peaked cap, and the emblem on the hat was a gold shield with crossed muskets and swords inside.

Of course, Liu Zheng wouldn’t stop, his legs moved even faster.

Seeing that he had no intention of stopping, the newcomer was also decisive, directly drawing out a mini handgun from his waist and pulling the trigger.

"Bang!"

The handgun, only the size of a syringe, emitted a cannon-like sound, and the massive recoil pushed the newcomer into the air.

However, instead of flying backward, the newcomer defied common sense and flew forward, arriving behind Liu Zheng in a breath.

"I am with the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Security Department..."

He was about to reveal his identity and command Liu Zheng to stop, but saw the latter forcefully shove a sharp object into his ear, causing blood to gush out.

"So ruthless?"

The newcomer hesitated for a moment, realizing another aspect of Liu Zheng’s character.

No wonder this newcomer was highly regarded by that group; he was already qualified in terms of decisiveness.

But as an elite of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, the newcomer was accustomed to various deranged criminals, so this level of ruthlessness didn’t catch him off guard.

"Since you don’t want to listen while alive, I’ll tell you when you’re dead."

The newcomer sneered and fired another shot.

"Biu!"

A faint gunshot sounded, and a blue laser shot toward the back of Liu Zheng’s head.

This was a high-temperature explosive ray capable of turning a large chunk of flesh into ash upon contact.

Even with the Black Mountain Goat Cub’s strong regenerative abilities, losing a head would render it temporarily incapacitated.

"Take this!"

Facing the sudden attack, Liu Zheng, as if he had eyes on his back, swung the Dragon Fishing Pole to block it.

The high-temperature ray, which could melt the armor of a main battle tank, struck the slender Dragon Fishing Pole, merely turning it slightly red before being fully absorbed.

"Huh?"

The effectiveness surprised even Liu Zheng.

But on second thought, Si Xue was someone who bathed in molten gold; it made sense for the Dragon Fishing Pole, crafted by her blood relatives, to have a special resistance to high temperatures.

And the newcomer hadn’t expected such a result either, causing his action to briefly stall.

"Great opportunity!"

Liu Zheng made a sudden stop, then turned around and kicked with one hoof.

The goat’s hoof, accompanied by a sharp gust of wind, kicked the heavy manhole cover into the air.

"Lashing Out (Active Skill): Consumes moderate stamina, launches a powerful rear kick, Strength Attribute check *1.5."

He flashed a bright smile at the newcomer and then jumped backwards into the sewer.

"?"

The newcomer shot the manhole cover into pieces and then stood at the edge of the opening, his face changing expressions.

He lifted a foot as if to jump down, but ultimately set it back down.

The more he understood the Metropolis, the more he knew how terrifying these landmarks were.

As an official employee of City Hall, as long as there was no significant conflict of interest, no one would intentionally harm them.

However, when facing these landmarks, lacking sufficient justification, an employee’s identity from City Hall could instead become a disadvantage.

"Is it worth it?"

The newcomer asked himself.

Soon, he arrived at an answer.

"Deliveryman, I’ll remember you."

The newcomer left a harsh word and then turned away.

Of course, Liu Zheng didn’t hear his harsh words, as he had sprinted to the Underwater River after jumping into the sewer.

In fact, Liu Zheng had even called the Fisherman.

Soon, the Fisherman arrived with Sha Jiang.

"What’s going on?"

The Fisherman asked.

"I just killed a wanted criminal. It seems like people from another faction of City Hall came to claim the credit, so I escaped down here."

Liu Zheng explained the situation in a few words.

"So what are you planning to do now?"

The Fisherman asked again.

"I’ll contact my faction’s people. If they chase after me, you just need to hold them off for a while."

He replied.

"What’s the point of holding them off, just kill them."

The Fisherman whistled, and a small fish, with a golden body and six large black spots on its sides, surfaced from the water.

"Isn’t that a Shooting Fish?"

Liu Zheng blurted out.

"That’s right, I didn’t expect you to know this."

The Fisherman was surprised.

This fish was considered a rare species in the sewer, and he had a hard time cultivating a few usable ones.

"Saw it on TV."

Liu Zheng said vaguely.

There was a large television donated by society in the welfare home, and every evening after dinner, they would watch TV.

Of course, with the director’s temper, most of the shows were educational programs.

It was during those times that he passively accumulated a bunch of seemingly useless, wonderful knowledge.

For instance, this Shooting Fish is a type of brackish water fish, capable of living in both rivers and coastal waters.

Its oral cavity has a unique groove that forms a tube-like structure when the tongue touches it, similar to the barrel of a toy water gun.

When the gill cover suddenly closes, a powerful jet of water can be shot out through this channel, with a range of up to one meter.
