“Ah!”
The man with ruined arms roared in anger. Even while lying on the ground, his thigh shot up as he kicked toward Xiao Yu.
Thud!
Xiao Yu caught his ankle with one hand.
Anger froze on the man’s face.
Impossible?!
How could a hand block the force of a thigh kick—and hold it so firmly?
After professional training, a human thigh can generate two to three times the force of an ordinary arm swing.
The man recalled Xiao Yu’s unbelievable performance just moments ago.
He had leaped from the 12th floor onto his glider.
He even managed to cling to a wall.
And he could leap between buildings to chase him.
Yet now, with one casual grab, Xiao Yu stopped his full-force kick in its tracks.
Is he… really human?!
Crack!
Xiao Yu’s foot snapped the man’s so-called ‘120’ thigh.
“Ah!” the man howled in agony.
Another unbelievable scene unfolded.
The man was left with his limbs shattered, save for one intact thigh.
With a burst of strength, he managed to sit up.
Using momentum, he bounced off the ground on that lone surviving thigh.
His body surged toward Xiao Yu.
He even opened his mouth, aiming to bite Xiao Yu’s neck.
The man’s face twisted into a fierce, demonic snarl.
Any ordinary person would have been paralyzed with fear at the sight.
Who has ever seen someone so terrifying?
Using his only remaining leg like that—and still trying to kill…
How ruthless must one be?
When humans evolved, did you hide away? Otherwise, why the hell…?” Xiao Yu remained unnervingly calm.
As his foe’s head neared within a meter of his,
Smack!
A harsh slap struck the man’s face.
It shattered countless teeth and sent him sprawling sideways.
“Is that all?”
Gazing at the man crashing to the ground, Xiao Yu smirked.
“Ah…”
Like a stubborn cockroach, the man tried to roll over and rise.
But Xiao Yu’s thigh came crashing down again.
Crack!
The man’s last remaining thigh was stomped to pieces.
“Continue,” Xiao Yu commanded.
Fixing his glare on the screaming, writhing man, he said, “The more you struggle, the more excited I get!”
The man was indeed vicious—he even opened his mouth as if to vomit a piece of Xiao Yu.
But then… Thud!
A foot landed on the man’s mouth, crushing his jaw.
“Come on, continue,” Xiao Yu urged.
After withdrawing his foot, Xiao Yu calmly glared at him.
The ruthlessness on his face melted away, replaced by sheer terror on the blood-soaked features of the man.
Whether from pain or fear, his body trembled uncontrollably.
As his former master once said… Xiao Yu fixed his gaze on him.
“Good people can never be cops,” he declared.
“You have to be more ruthless than villains, more savage than they are.
Otherwise, you’ll be the one scared—and in the end, you’ll die.”
“You must be harsher and more brutal than them.”
“Then, even the villains will tremble before you.”
“And you’ll be able to catch or kill them.”
“See how simple it is?”
“Villains… are scared now!”
Several security personnel carried the man away for urgent treatment.
Without aid, he was likely to die.
With a dismissive turn, Xiao Yu strode toward an apartment not far away.
“Extreme Agents?”
Burp… no way.
I’ll beat the shit out of you!
……
After Xiao Yu boarded the elevator and returned to the 12th floor, he encountered three team leaders.
Wang Dong, Zhou Lie, Shen Mei.
The woman, who had been knocked senseless by Xiao Yu’s slap, had awakened—biting her lip and looking down.
“What’s going on?”
Xiao Yu walked over to the coffee table and inspected the laptop on it.
It belonged to that woman, and a mini portable hard drive was connected to it.
“The data on the hard drive has been destroyed,” he noted.
Shen Mei interjected, “There was spyware on the computer; all the data was encrypted.”
“Hmm?”
Xiao Yu furrowed his brow. “By the time I arrived, hadn’t she already started deleting it?”
“Yes,” came the reply.
Wang Dong nodded with concern. “We’re not sure if the stolen data has any backup.”
With both the hard drive and the computer data wiped, is there any backup?
“There is!”
Ever heard of cloud storage?
With enough time and fast internet, data can be uploaded in an instant.
“This is getting troublesome,” Xiao Yu admitted.
Seated on the sofa, he stared at the laptop. “Capital City’s external network is blocked—so the data can’t get out. From the moment of the incident until their flight and even until we caught them… they only had time to upload once.”
“In a closed network, it would have to be through specific cloud servers within the city… But no, they wouldn’t be that foolish. We can search each major cloud company’s server by file size from the 40-minute to half-hour window. There are only a few of them, so they must have followed protocol.”
“They must know they can’t escape. To complete the mission, they’d find a way to transmit the data. So…”
Xiao Yu suddenly turned to the woman. “The data isn’t just on some random cloud server, is it?”
The woman remained silent.
Her eyes flickered as her pupils rapidly contracted, though her expression stayed unchanged.
“So you got it right…” Xiao Yu smiled and continued his analysis.
“How could they upload software to transmit data when the external network is blocked?”
“This software should have a timer function, right? Since you know a network blackout can’t last long.”
“So the software must be scheduled—the server has to be in Capital City, with the ability to upload and transmit to certain countries.”
“Scheduled uploads, transfers… email, perhaps? Only email has all those functions.”
Xiao Yu locked eyes with the woman, watching her pupils dilate and quickly contract.
“Seems like I nailed it again, huh?”
Grinning, Xiao Yu turned to the three astonished team leaders. “Go check it out. There are only a few companies that provide email services—none from overseas, and even fewer with servers in Capital City. Look for scheduled emails with large attachments from between forty minutes and half an hour ago. Have their tech team search through the major email servers… and you’ll find it!”
The woman’s face finally changed, terror replacing it as she looked at Xiao Yu in horror.
She appeared as if she were staring at a monster—a demon.
The team leaders’ expressions were no less grim.
Their looks seemed to say: Why haven’t you ascended yet? What are you still doing among mortals?
Xiao Yu grinned warmly at his three senior comrades.
A truly extraordinary savant always reveals his brilliance in front of such people.
With a flashy, cocky trick using his feet, he showed off.
And then… he stunned everyone!
