Chapter 47 Capture Alive
Chapter 47 Capture Alive
Seeing that Li Jiuhe's behavior was extremely abnormal, Xu Wei connected it with the other party's task definition ability and guessed that Li Jiuhe might have noticed something.
Without asking any further questions, he quickly followed Li Jiuhe and jumped off the car, running to the commercial dispatch vehicle of Group 1.
The tailgate opened, and before anyone inside could speak, Li Jiuhe jumped in.
He immediately spotted Liu Qian, the team leader sitting at the very back, and quickly said, "Team Leader Liu, I'm Li Jiuhe, an investigator who just joined Team Two. Please halt the operation immediately; this is a trap!"
Liu Qian was taken aback, clearly not believing him immediately, and instead looked at Xu Wei who was following behind Li Jiuhe.
Xu Wei was also surprised, but she quickly recovered and said, "Team Leader Liu, Li Jiuhe is a new member of our Team Two. His abilities are very special..."
"Saving lives is the priority. Please have Team Leader Liu withdraw the people first, and I will explain the reason to you immediately," Li Jiuhe said.
Liu Qian was skeptical. She looked away from the two of them, brought the walkie-talkie to her lips, but hadn't said anything yet.
With a loud bang, an explosion was heard from the apartment.
"Ah, it's... the Burster!" Liu Qian looked at the surveillance screen, her heart pounding.
She didn't expect that an accident would actually happen, but because time was too tight, she hadn't had time to send out the evacuation order.
After all, it was Liu Qian's first time meeting Li Jiuhe, and she didn't know his abilities. Even with Xu Wei's testimony, she still needed time to accept it.
However, time was of the essence, and this process was clearly not enough for her to digest all the information. She chose to trust Li Jiuhe's judgment and then accurately issued the order to terminate the mission.
"It seems this approach is completely ineffective in stopping it!"
Li Jiuhe was also aware of this.
The explosion has already occurred. Apart from Gao Jingting, who was seriously injured, all the other investigators have died. Moreover, a vicious, invisible man is hiding in the apartment.
As for the man who killed with his eyes, he should be approaching the command vehicle at this moment, perhaps already lying in ambush beside the vehicle waiting for the door to open.
Liu Qian kept calling out to the apartment through the walkie-talkie, but there was no response.
Staff members immediately went to open the tailgate and get out of the car to check.
"Don't open the door!" Li Jiuhe immediately stopped him.
Because he knew very well that the ruthless killer was already standing outside the car, waiting for the door to open.
The staff member was taken aback and stood still. He first glanced at Li Jiuhe, then turned to look at Liu Qian, waiting for her instructions.
Liu Qian also looked at Li Jiuhe with surprise.
Li Jiuhe explained, "Someone deliberately used the trackers to expose their whereabouts, attracting our investigation bureau to come and make arrests..."
"Could it be that they weren't after the Ink Wheel King Jewelry Necklace?" Liu Qian asked, frowning.
"No," Li Jiuhe shook his head. "That was just a ruse, so Gao Jingting's move to cut off their attempt to rob the jewelry necklace was completely ineffective, because that wasn't their real goal."
"But why would they want to attract the attention of our investigation bureau? What are they trying to do?" Liu Qian wondered.
This was also the point of confusion for Li Jiuhe before the mission was reset.
He didn't answer, but paused for a moment, glanced up at the interior of the dispatch vehicle, and asked in return, "Team Leader Liu, what role can this command vehicle play?"
Liu Qian was puzzled as to why he would ask about the vehicle, and asked in surprise, "It's just an ordinary command vehicle, used for receiving and transmitting signals and commands, and retrieving nearby surveillance equipment..."
"Is there anything important in the car?" Li Jiuhe asked again.
He didn't believe that the other party had gone to great lengths to steal the vehicle just to use its simple functions, since it wouldn't be difficult for those Sequencers to obtain an identical command vehicle.
Liu Qian shook her head: "No."
Li Jiuhe also had doubts at this moment.
If it's just an ordinary command vehicle, why would these people go to such lengths, even killing so many investigators, to seize it? There must be a reason.
But since he can't find the reason for the time being, there is another way he might be able to find the answer.
Li Jiuhe turned to Xu Wei and said, "There's a terrifyingly powerful Sequence User lurking outside the car. No one can look him in the eye, or they'll be instantly killed..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Qian immediately blurted out, "A being with the Ghost Eyes?"
Li Jiuhe knew very little about the abilities of these Sequencers, and having just joined the Investigation Bureau, he had not had time to acquire this information.
Xu Wei explained to him, "There are many types of people with the 'mysterious eyes,' such as those who control, cause chaos, or kill. The one you just described belongs to the 'killing' type. As long as you make eye contact with it, the central nervous system will be forcibly interrupted, causing all bodily functions to quickly become disordered, leading to immediate shutdown and death."
"You mean there's a Ghost Eye user right outside this car?" Liu Qian stepped forward, her gaze fixed on the tightly closed rear door of the car.
Li Jiuhe nodded.
Xu Wei took out her white bone flute and whispered to the people in the car, "You may feel slightly unwell later, but there will be no physical problems."
After speaking, he brought the bone flute to his lips and gently blew it.
Almost the instant the whistle sounded, everyone in the car, including Li Jiuhe, felt a strange discomfort, as if something was crawling inside them.
That was all; the discomfort did not worsen.
Because Xu Wei's whistle was aimed at people outside the car, her main targets were also people outside the car.
Seemingly having found her target, her flute playing suddenly became more rapid, each note higher than the last, layer upon layer.
Immediately, the double doors at the rear of the car made a sound, as if someone outside was eager to open them.
However, because the car door was closed from the inside, the guy on the outside couldn't open it even after pulling twice.
Xu Wei's flute playing became even more urgent. At this moment, she held nothing back and attacked the people outside with all her might.
Everyone in the car knew that if the door opened at that moment, they would have a hard time facing the person with the strange eyes unless they immediately closed their eyes or looked away.
But if they close their eyes or look away, the other party could very well attack them directly.
The flute music was rapid, and after two minutes, Xu Wei put the flute away.
"It's ready," she said confidently.
Someone immediately stepped forward and opened the car door.
The moment the car door opened, almost everyone instinctively looked away, not daring to look directly out of the car. Only Li Jiuhe and Liu Qian looked out.
A thin man was seen curled up on the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably, with a pair of broken sunglasses lying next to him.
The man tried to scratch his body with both hands, but he was too weak to move and could only tremble.
It seems this guy has become somewhat delirious.
"Blindfold him, handcuff him first, then send two people to check over at the apartment. Be careful!" Liu Qian quickly made the arrangements.
