Within 10 minutes. Lin

Xiao Yu calmly watched as Song Jiaxi changed into a security uniform.

At the same time, he assessed her physical condition.

After enduring four days of torture, her body was left in a semi-debilitated state.

Multiple areas in her left calf muscles had succumbed to necrosis.

Even managing to move at merely one-third of normal capacity was a small mercy.

Her combat capabilities… were virtually nonexistent.

How could he possibly escape with such a ‘burden’?

With a silent inward sigh, Xiao Yu’s lips curled into a smile.

If you ever feel there’s too much crap to handle…

then just try smiling.

And then…

Xiao Yu raised his pistol and aimed at Song Jiaxi.

Song Jiaxi: “???”

“Didn’t we agree you were here to rescue me?”

“Forget it, I’m exhausted. Let’s just part ways!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three quick shots.

Blood spurted from Song Jiaxi’s lower leg, shoulder blade, and arm.

As she collapsed onto the ‘607’ platform, her face—recently transformed entirely by Xiao Yu’s Disguise Expert technique—remained etched with confusion and agony.

It was as if she was silently asking: why?

“Even if you’re not coming to save me, at least don’t hurt me!”

At that moment, the entire shooting episode was watched by Security Bureau personnel who had rushed over from afar.

Rat-a-tat-tat!

Gunfire erupted.

Xiao Yu had long been prepared; using nearby cover, he bolted away and vanished from everyone’s sight in an instant.

A swarm of security guards charged in, converging on Song Jiaxi.

“My God, they’re all dead… Director Foscher is dead too…”

“Some are still alive! Hurry, help them—call an ambulance!”

“Lift him first, then wait outside for the ambulance…”

A group of security personnel chased after someone while several guards barked orders.

Song Jiaxi was in shock—not that she was awake; her eyes were closed and her heart pounded wildly.

Could it be they mistook her for one of their own?

In an instant,

her mind clicked, and she finally understood why Xiao Yu had shot her.

First, Xiao Yu couldn’t possibly drag someone ‘half-dead’ out of the Security Bureau.

Second, the shot was meant to make the guards think she was on his side.

Third, it would ensure she was taken outside to await rescue.

So that was it… Song Jiaxi’s feelings were tangled.

“Damn, you’re too damn clever!”

……

Xiao Yu dashed on.

He sprinted out of the Interrogation Room area, through a building corridor, and into another structure.

Suddenly, around a corner in the corridor ahead, a large group of guards emerged.

Xiao Yu didn’t slow; his legs pumped furiously.

Only his Compact Cannon in hand kept moving.

Rat-a-tat-tat…

The terrifying burst of gunfire unleashed a torrent of bullets, sparks flying.

Poof, poof, poof, poof!

Blood sprayed from the bodies and faces of five guards.

The moment Xiao Yu sped past them, all five guards fell.

The gunshots had already drawn the attention of many onlookers.

That was exactly what Xiao Yu intended—to let everyone in the Security Bureau building know what he was capable of.

Earlier, he had killed three of the five guards and wounded two, deliberately holding back extra shots.

His plan was to cause enough casualties to attract a mass of medical personnel.

He wanted to divert all eyes onto the carnage.

Only then would Song Jiaxi have a chance to be escorted out of the Security Bureau…

Security staff, Special Forces, and guards—all charged toward Xiao Yu as if on a murderous rampage.

Yet, their efforts were futile.

Entering what he called ‘Ghostrider Mode,’ Xiao Yu calculated his next move.

He could sustain high-intensity combat for five straight hours.

For those five hours, he’d be untouchable.

“Wanna kill me?”

“First, let’s have a little spar with your shadow!”

Rat-a-tat-tat!

During his wild sprint, Xiao Yu fired again, taking out two more and wounding another.

Even as he ran, he laughed, the sound of urgent shouts crackling through his wireless earpiece.

“Get ready! He’s on the fifth-floor corridor of XX District—surround him!”

“Spread out! The infiltrator is about to charge!”

“Damn it, finish him off quickly!”

Ha ha… Xiao Yu was elated, his entire being buzzing with adrenaline.

Honey Badger Courage activated… defying life and death, if you resist, I’ll take you on!

As he ran, a fierce determination flashed in his eyes.

Boom—he crashed through a door.

The moment the corridor door burst open, his body was propelled upward.

The gun in his hand blazed as it discharged.

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat…

In the distance, a mass of security personnel, guards, and Special Forces fell.

Simultaneously, a torrent of bullets rained down on Xiao Yu.

Boom!

Xiao Yu’s legs slammed against the ceiling.

The immense force sent his legs bouncing erratically.

In an instant, he landed amidst the crowd.

Wielding a Compact Cannon in one hand and a pistol in the other, his arms flailed wildly.

Rat-a-tat-tat… Bang bang bang!

At that moment, Xiao Yu resembled a movie hero skilled in ‘Gun Fu’, unleashing a storm of bullets in every direction…

Screams and wails erupted around him.

Bodies fell around Xiao Yu like a shower of petals.

Not one soul survived!

“Phew!”

Exhaling deeply, Xiao Yu began gathering ammunition.

Just as he was about to finish,

a surge of impending danger rose within him.

Xiao Yu abruptly ducked his head.

Bang… a roar echoed from outside the building.

A sniper round zipped over his head.

“That’s just way too much—now even a sniper’s here…” Xiao Yu muttered, his face grim.

The sniper’s arrival meant that SWAT or Special Forces had joined the fray.

Now the real show had begun!

Xiao Yu leapt forward, his body flipping rapidly, covering seven or eight meters before straightening and springing upward.

Not forward, but backward.

Bang!

Another bullet soared past in front of him.

Had he continued forward, that bullet would have torn him apart.

Master… Xiao Yu’s heart sank suddenly.

This wasn’t an ordinary man—it was likely someone from the Special Forces!

In that moment of retreat, as his kinetic and potential energy balanced, Xiao Yu took a step and charged forward again.

Bang!

Yet another sniper bullet streaked past from behind him.

Snipers too!

Humans are evolving, technology is advancing, and weapons are improving.

Semi-automatic and fully automatic anti-materiel sniper rifles had long been available.

I used to think you had to manually cock the chamber—a total waste of time!

Damn it, messing with me in full 3.9 style… Xiao Yu cursed in his mind.

He hated being on the receiving end.

Falcon’s Eye—at the peak of his sprint, Xiao Yu glanced out the corridor window.

It was nighttime, utterly pitch black.

Infrared thermal imaging? I’ve got one too… Xiao Yu sneered.

Python’s Sense—activated!

In a flash, as he dashed at full speed, Xiao Yu ‘saw’ a sniper inside a nearby Security Bureau building.

A female sniper?

Xiao Yu was taken aback but didn’t hesitate.

Bang!

Yet another sniper bullet fired.

Xiao Yu immediately halted, predicting his enemy’s next move.

He felt the terrifying, ripping gust as the bullet whooshed past.

Raising his Compact Cannon, he pulled the trigger.

Rat-a-tat-tat… from a hundred meters away, inside the building.

Poof, poof!

A female sniper tumbled, rolling over.

A bullet struck her eyes and forehead, and she died instantly.

Holstering his gun, Xiao Yu resumed his frantic sprint…
