Chapter 182: Time to End It All

Chapter 182 – It’s Time to End It All

After the explosion in the sewer, the scene was a complete mess.

Dust, debris, and shattered concrete mixed with scattered sand were everywhere.

Xiao Yu released the crying child he had been holding and looked toward a veteran employee in the distance.

At that moment, the man was sitting on the ground, his face still in shock – completely dumbfounded!

Xiao Yu shifted his gaze and activated his Falcon’s Eye…

Alas, he found nothing.

He discovered not a single clue.

No suspicious signs at all…

It was as if everything that had just happened was nothing more than a coincidence—a tragic accident!

Meanwhile,

a fleet of business vans, like ravenous beasts, appeared out of nowhere.

As the doors swung open, Wang Dong led a large group of security personnel in a charge.

Xiao Yu lay on the ground and closed his eyes.

It wasn’t a coincidence… Someone was trying to kill me!

“Did I just step on a cat’s tail?”

Xiao Yu chuckled and murmured, “Are you scared now?”

“Well?”

Wang Dong’s anxious, concerned voice rang out from above.

“You won’t die!”

Xiao Yu opened his eyes and sat up.

Not only was death off the table, his body was virtually unharmed.

“But…”

Glancing at the devastation around him, Xiao Yu grinned, “This round wasn’t a loss!”

“That’s damn lucky—are you a kid?” Wang Dong glared at Xiao Yu, his eyes wide. “Was it them?”

“Yes.”

Xiao Yu nodded. “Who else could turn an accident into a murder opportunity if not them?”

“…”

Wang Dong eyed the explosion site, his heart still pounding, his scalp tingling with fear.

Even a small bomb wouldn’t normally produce an explosion this terrifying.

And yet, the kid managed to miraculously survive amidst the chaos?

“How did that happen?” Wang Dong asked in disbelief.

“Good luck.”

Xiao Yu shrugged. “I just felt a sudden jolt of fear and dodged right in time.”

Wang Dong pondered for a moment and nodded.

That sixth sense wasn’t new to him.

Animals naturally sense danger far better than humans.

And not just Xiao Yu.

Even he had experienced those unsettling premonitions at times of peril.

“Time to show off that North Sea punch!”

Xiao Yu slowly got to his feet and brushed off the dust.

Wang Dong: ???

Ever since he met Xiao Yu,

he felt that sooner or later, the little brother’s reckless antics would lead him down a one-way street.

“It’s right here.”

Xiao Yu raised his hand and pointed to the nearby orphanage. “A bunch of orphans!”

He wasn’t insulting anyone.

Wang Dong squinted his eyes. “All orphans?”

“Yes.”

Xiao Yu nodded. “Just search the place!”

National security personnel are known for their rapid investigations.

Back in the day, any child linked to the female assassin Guan Yue or the orphanage was immediately marked as a suspect…

…

That night inside the orphanage, security personnel were busy carrying out their search.

Outside the orphanage,

Xiao Yu sat on the curb, lost in thought with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

How did the assassin manage it?

After all, accidents like this are nearly impossible to orchestrate.

Sure, many so-called accidents are man-made,

but to truly control one is nearly impossible.

There was one thing for sure.

The Assassin Group had marked him!

Just like now…

Out of the corner of his eye, Xiao Yu noticed an elderly man with a hunched back leaning on a cane not far away.

He shuffled over, trembling with each step.

Until he was about to pass right by Xiao Yu.

The old man casually lifted his cane as if it were nothing.

But the tip of the cane jabbed toward Xiao Yu’s side.

Crack… The cane’s tip had snapped into a blade!

“Ha!”

Xiao Yu laughed as he shook his head; he had long been back on his feet.

Bang!

His fist had already connected with the old man’s chest and abdomen.

“Ugh…”

The old man bent over.

The searing pain and a cramp forced him to cry out.

Revealing a row of teeth only a young man should have.

Crunch!

Xiao Yu’s hands struck the old man’s face and chin, dislocating his jaw.

His jaw was forced apart, leaving him unable to close his mouth.

Following quickly,

with the Bear Force activated, Xiao Yu lunged, slanting his leg onto the old man’s calf.

Crunch!

Crunch!

The old man’s lower legs were brutally shattered.

As the elderly man howled in agony and collapsed, Xiao Yu gripped his shoulders.

With a powerful twist,

crack, crack!

The old man’s arms were dislocated at the joints.

When the man finally collapsed to the ground,

Bang!

Xiao Yu’s foot pressed onto the old man’s neck.

Not to break it, but to keep him from moving.

Then,

Xiao Yu bent down and felt around in the old man’s mouth.

He pulled out a tooth!

“Whew!”

He exhaled deeply, a sly smile spreading on his face.

Finally, he’d caught a living prisoner!

Even though he knew the Assassin Group was after him,

did he really think Xiao Yu would just sit back and wait for them to finish him off?

Ever heard of fishing for information?

“Are you asking for your own demise?”

Wang Dong approached with his subordinates, his expression a mix of emotions as he glanced at the little brother.

His eyes were fixed intently on the tooth clutched in the old man’s hand.

As for that old man – he wasn’t truly old at all, but a young man in disguise.

He was dragged away like a stray dog by two security personnel.

His fate was sealed.

As long as a person lives,

they’ll spill any scraps of useful information…

“I know plenty.”

Xiao Yu turned his head and smirked at Wang Dong, “I’ve been out for nearly half a month now. Missing my sister, missing home.”

Wang Dong fell silent.

After all, all men understand the little brother’s mindset.

“A beauty’s embrace and a hero’s memorial.”

Looking back through history, countless heroes met their doom entangled in a web of affection.

Xiao Yu almost burst into laughter at Wang Dong’s expression.

He knew his friend had misunderstood.

He just missed his sister and longed for home.

But someone like Xiao Yu wasn’t one to relocate in this life or the next.

He liked staying where he was, in familiar surroundings.

He had no taste for wandering about.

Except for his stint at the police academy, this was his first half-month away from home…

…

The false tooth was taken for examination…

Inside, it contained Bercher Sea Snake Venom… It confirmed the assassin!

In two hours, every secret the assassin knew was squeezed out of him.

Efficiency at its finest!

“Du Qinming, 25 years old, orphan… Codename Cards 8. According to his confession, he was merely a minor thug in the Assassin Group. From the ranks of 2 to A, they were just expendable tools trained under the command of Little King. As for Big King… even they don’t know who he is. No one has ever seen Big King. And it wasn’t Little King behind those accidental killings—it was Big King!”

After speaking, Wang Dong looked at Xiao Yu.

“Then…”

Xiao Yu strode toward a police car. “Let’s meet this Little King first!”

He had grown tired of being nothing more than a pawn.

It was time to end it all!
