Chapter 236: Guarding Our Glorious China
by xennovelChapter 236: Guard Our Glorious China
A dagger silently stabbed into the lower back of Xiao Yu.
Crack!
The wrist gripping the dagger snapped.
The dagger fell into Xiao Yu’s palm.
With a swift flick of his arm, he discarded Li Haibo like trash.
Xiao Yu appeared before a retreating Zheng Hao, his screams echoing.
He knelt down.
Thud, thud…
Then he stood up.
Thud, thud…
While moaning, Zheng Hao collapsed and rolled frantically on the ground.
Blood streamed from both his ankles…
Xiao Yu’s strikes were both precise and skilled.
His cuts avoided major arteries while severing tendons and ligaments.
Whether it was on the wrists or the ankles.
Every Xiao Yu landed two cuts.
Each cut separated by one centimeter.
Such incisions ensure no major tendon is affected.
And they prevent massive blood loss.
With a calm, unreadable expression, Xiao Yu turned away from Zheng Hao and fixed his gaze on Li Haibo, who was struggling to retrieve his gun.
Swinging his arm, his blade flashed like liquid light.
Thud! Crack!
The dagger pierced Li Haibo’s outstretched hand—now frozen to the ground!
“Ah!”
Li Haibo screamed in agony, reaching out desperately to pull the dagger free.
But that hand had just been snapped off by Xiao Yu while he was clutching his gun.
With his mouth agape, Li Haibo tried to bite the dagger’s handle.
Boom!
A shoe-clad foot slammed into his chin.
Snap!
Li Haibo’s chin was shattered, broken apart by the blow.
Retracting his thigh, Xiao Yu looked over at Wang Dong standing at the doorway and calmly said, “Evacuate the squad?”
“…”
Without a word, Wang Dong left the doorway.
Crouching, he fished out a pack of cigarettes, lit one.
With a cigarette clamped between his lips, he even used two fingers to plug his ears.
His experience with the ‘Human Skin Wax Figure’ case had taught him well.
If you don’t want your scalp to crawl, your nerves to go haywire,
you had better block your ears.
The sound of bones being chipped and snapped is just too unsettling.
Better not to stick around too long.
No one dies immediately, but you’ll end up throwing up.
Such a scene… is more than most can bear!
After half an hour,
a composed Xiao Yu emerged and knelt beside Wang Dong.
Wang Dong removed his fingers and pulled out a cigarette.
The two stood side by side, each with a cigarette, exhaling clouds of smoke.
“Sometimes, I really feel like killing them,”
Xiao Yu murmured as he exhaled a plume of smoke.
“I can’t stomach what you’re capable of—I would kill,” he added quietly.
Wang Dong sighed, “When you take out beasts like those, Big Boss only ends up giving me a few choice curses. It’s never a big deal.”
“I just can’t get past that mental barrier.”
Xiao Yu shook his head, “Once you cross that line, there’s no turning back.”
“It’s a curious situation indeed.”
Wang Dong’s expression grew complex, “You really persist to this extent?”
“You might think it’s foolish, idiotic, almost insane,”
Xiao Yu grinned, showing his teeth, “In my eyes, a police uniform is as unblemished as a military one. I might get away with minor errors wearing it, but I refuse to let it be tainted!”
Wang Dong couldn’t help but be visibly moved.
“Do you remember the oath we took when we joined this line of work?”
Leaning against the wall, Xiao Yu’s eyes sparkled.
Wang Dong’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded.
“My life is dedicated to the country.”
“My will is devoted to the people.”
“My mission is to uphold justice.”
“My faith shines like a beacon.”
“May our youth forever protect our magnificent China!”
……
Fang Xingan, Male, 43, from Bincheng—a businessman and philanthropist……
In the public’s eyes,
Fang Xingan was a wealthy man and a great benefactor.
In the past, he had funded over twenty hope schools.
He had supported more than ten children in impoverished mountain regions.
Even local authorities had repeatedly honored him with the title of Philanthropic Entrepreneur.
When Xiao Yu first met him, Fang Xingan made a very good impression.
His gentle gaze, eyes filled with the wisdom of the years, and his calm demeanor exuded a natural authority.
“May I help you with something?”
Inside the office, Fang Xingan looked at the young police officer in uniform with a puzzled expression.
To him, the officer was strikingly handsome—and undoubtedly an extraordinary young man.
He was the kind of man you’d notice in a crowd at first glance.
“May I ask you a question?”
Xiao Yu fixed his gaze on him and said, “You have money, a family, a wife and child, you’re a good boss and a philanthropist. To outsiders, your image is impeccable—a person with unshakeable values. But then… how do you justify all the heinous, heartless acts you commit?”
“…”
The warmth in Fang Xingan’s eyes vanished instantly.
His gaze turned sharp and cold as he glared at Xiao Yu, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand a word you’re saying.”
“It’s useless,”
Xiao Yu shook his head, “Your network, your connections, those so-called big shots who you think will back you up—I can tell you they mean nothing. Understand?”
Fang Xingan’s face turned severe, his expression a mix of shock and uncertainty, and he fell silent.
He couldn’t fathom why this officer would speak so boldly.
“Still not getting it?”
Xiao Yu glared at the silent Fang Xingan, “Li Haibo and Zheng Hao have already confessed everything. We never expected that the so-called big brother they spoke of would turn out to be a philanthropist—a beast draped in human skin!”
“They’ve been caught?”
Fang Xingan finally spoke, his tone laced with scorn and barely concealed fury, “I still had a soft heart. I should have gotten rid of them long ago!”
“Admitted it?”
Xiao Yu sneered, “Unrepentant until the end?”
“Repent?”
Fang Xingan stared coldly at Xiao Yu, “If my misdeeds were exposed, it would be a death sentence. We’re all doomed anyway—why repent? People like you will never understand the mindset of those of us in high places, nor the pleasures we enjoy. For instance, have you ever tasted human flesh? Do you know its aroma…”
Boom!
Blood and teeth spurted from Fang Xingan’s mouth as he collapsed to the ground.
“Have you ever considered that one day you might end up like a dog?”
Standing over Fang Xingan’s face, Xiao Yu lowered his head, “Being stepped on like this?”
“You…”
Fang Xingan’s face flushed with humiliation, anger flickering in his eyes.
“Look at you—what’s the difference between you and those you’ve mercilessly killed?”
Xiao Yu asked calmly, “When you treat others like ants, aren’t you just an ant in my eyes? Right now, killing you would be as simple as a single step—and frankly, I’m tempted to do exactly that!”
Fear washed over Fang Xingan’s face; his complexion turned pale.
The earlier ferocity vanished, leaving him trembling as an odor of urine wafted from his body.
Xiao Yu smiled—a smile filled with sinister mockery.
He extended his hand toward Fang Xingan…
Case Closed!
