Chapter 163: [144-145] Executioner approaches, kill without error (Seeking monthly tickets, recommendations, and subscriptions)_3

Pei Jinye couldn’t help but be startled.

“Do I need to be afraid of myself?”

At 1:45 a.m., the Da Peng City Investigation Team took the lead, and law enforcement agencies from the Military Department and Night Patrol Department were simultaneously mobilized.

At this time, Pei Jinye would normally have gone to sleep after practicing “Big Dream for Thousands of Autumns.” Instead, he had to “reap what he sowed” and work overtime urgently; he couldn’t complain and simply played the role of a diligent investigator.

“Who’s there!”

The young team member suddenly shined his flashlight over, but the figure under the bridge scurried away from the other side.

“Damn, am I about to score big here?”

The young team member’s breath quickened as he shouted, “Old Pei, help me out here!”

He immediately chased after the figure.

Pei Jinye glanced at the small path beside him but didn’t follow the chase under the bridge. Instead, he circled to the other side.

The shadow was suddenly kicked back.

The young team member stepped forward and held him down: “Don’t move!”

The device in his hand scanned the man’s face.

[Zhang Xinqi, male, 48 years old, has committed theft multiple times, a fifth-class citizen of the Federation]

“Zhang Xinqi?” The young team member was taken aback, then immediately shouted, “Tell me, did you kill Xie Zuxin?”

“Who?” The vagrant was stunned for a moment, then pleaded loudly as he came to his senses, “I didn’t kill anyone, really… I don’t have the guts to kill!”

“Then why did you run?” the young team member asked, annoyed.

“I’m innocent. You guys suddenly came at me, I thought it was an enemy…”

“Get lost!”

They let the vagrant go.

The young team member looked up regretfully at Pei Jinye and lamented, “There goes my big chance for glory.”

Pei Jinye chuckled.

“Want one?”

Back on the road, the young team member took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

Pei Jinye waved his hand to decline.

The young team member paused: “You don’t smoke?”

“I don’t. And I suggest you shouldn’t either, especially at times like these. It’s easy to get into trouble,” Pei Jinye said candidly.

“Huh?” The young team member paused, unnerved by a pair of calm eyes staring at him. He gave a strained laugh and stuffed the cigarette back into his pocket: “Okay, I’ll take your advice.”

“By the way, I heard you took down two guys from the Old Gods Association by yourself? Pretty impressive, you don’t look that old, but you’re tough as nails.”

Pei Jinye looked around, too busy to respond.

The young team member went on nonchalantly: “Oh, my name is Zhou Ye. Funny that our names both contain ‘Ye.’ Don’t you think that’s some kind of fated connection?”

Pei Jinye glanced over at him when he heard this, but he hadn’t the chance to reply when suddenly, gunfire erupted not far away.

“Fuck! This is it!”

Zhou Ye’s expression changed, and he exchanged a glance with Pei Jinye before they both hurried over.

Captain Qiu’s voice reached everyone’s ears: “Attention all units, a suspected target has been spotted, the individual is armed. Protect yourselves and immediately report the target’s location over the communication channel.”

“Roger!”

“Roger!”

“Roger!”

“Report, the target has hijacked a motorcycle and is heading towards the western exit of Que Street.”

Suddenly a report from a teammate came through the earpiece.

Zhou Ye’s expression changed slightly.

“Old Pei, where are we now?”

“Que Street.” Pei Jinye calmly glanced at the other man and, with a “click” sound, loaded his gun and raised it toward the figure sprinting toward them from a hundred meters away—

With a “bang,” a shot rang out.

Flames burst forth.

“Holy shit!”

Zhou Ye cried out in alarm, fumbling with the gun in his hands.

But the target zoomed past.

Driving the heavy motorcycle with the headlights on, the intense white light almost completely blinded Zhou Ye. For a moment, he didn’t dare to shoot randomly, afraid of accidentally hitting a teammate. He could only dodge to the side.

“Old Pei, Old Pei, are you okay?”

“I’m fine.”

Pei Jinye looked up: “Are you okay?”

“Just twisted my waist dodging, damn it, that guy got away!” Zhou Ye was irate.

Pei Jinye didn’t reply and watched as Zhou Ye pressed his communicator to start reporting.

Before long, many hovercars sped overhead.

Captain Qiu arrived with a team and, upon seeing the duo, said, “Zhou Ye, go get treated. Pei Jinye, you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

“If you’re good, then come with me to pursue them. Did you guys get a good look at the suspect’s face?”

“No, the headlights were too bright to make a clear identification,” Zhou Ye said helplessly.

At that moment, Pei Jinye spoke up, “The law enforcement recorder should have caught it. I’ve uploaded it to Xing Tian.”

Captain Qiu nodded in approval: “Well done.”

The group continued to encircle and close in on the suspect.

Pei Jinye followed them, and it wasn’t long before the search party clashed with the suspect.

A master of the Body Technique System from the military arrived, seizing the opportunity to engage in a fight with the suspect, and more and more people surrounded the scene.

It wasn’t long.

The motorcycle rider who had been pursued was finally caught.

The helmet was removed.

Everyone was astonished to see that the suspect was a girl no older than twenty years old.

“She’s the one who killed Chief Xie?” Zhou Ye appeared beside Pei Jinye in disbelief.

Pei Jinye turned to look at him: “How did you get here? Didn’t Captain Qiu tell you to get treated?”

“Just a sprain.” Zhou Ye didn’t tell the whole truth.

He was worried that if he left, he might miss out on credit when rewards were given.

For an Investigation Team member like him, with no background, to rise in ranks, he needed to either please the higher-ups or earn sufficient military merits.

Pei Jinye remained silent.

However, Captain Qiu frowned and said, “Xing Tian has confirmed it, the suspect is from the Starfire Army.”
