The final battle (6)
Lin Yan reached out his arm, watching helplessly as he was engulfed by the sea of fire, unable to save him. She grabbed her waist and pulled her back, pressing her tightly underneath him, using his back to shield her from the explosion’s aftermath.
As the loud boom echoed not far away, the Supreme Lord sat up straight, turning his head to see flames shooting into the sky.
He gritted his teeth, “Kuba…”
Kuba maneuvered the steering wheel, driving at full speed, not daring to slack off for a moment.
“Supreme Lord, we can’t go back. We just barely escaped the police. We’re only two kilometers away from the pier. Once we get on the boat, no one will stop us.”
Even Kuba understood this logic. How could the Supreme Lord not understand, but…
After a moment, the Supreme Lord narrowed his eyes slightly, his jaw trembling.
“Let’s go, to the pier.”
Kuba stepped on the gas, pushing the horsepower to the maximum. As they neared the pier, a motorcycle rushed out from the side, chasing them relentlessly.Song Yuhang’s only mission was to follow Tiger and not engage in combat upon reaching the Zhongjing Industrial Port, to provide external support for Lin Yan. However, when he saw them about to escape, his inherent courage surged, and Duan Cheng, with red eyes, drove the motorcycle out.
Even if he was alone, he had to stop them!
The repeated practice at the shooting range finally paid off. The big boy aimed the pistol’s sight at the tires of the car in front of him. Without much time to hesitate, he decisively pulled the trigger. However, the result was not as expected, as the bullet hit the car body with a bang, shattering the windshield.
Tiger pushed down the Supreme Lord to take cover, saying, “F*ck, the cops just won’t give up, they’re catching up again.”
He pulled back the gun bolt and shot through the car window. Seeing the lone figure on the other side, a disdainful smile appeared on his lips.
“Who does he think he is? Just a wet-behind-the-ears kid, eat my bullet!”
Seeing him stick his head out, Duan Cheng felt something was amiss. He swiftly swerved to the right with a hard brake on the motorcycle, executing a perfect drift to avoid the bullet that flew past his heel. Due to the inertia, he was thrown from the vehicle and landed heavily on the beach.
Tiger holstered his gun and said, “Second Master, you go on ahead. Let me deal with him.”
With someone covering their rear, it was naturally a sought-after option.
(Originally translated on , let's go!)
Kuba gently pressed the brake, “We’ll wait for you at the pier for fifteen minutes. If you don’t show up in fifteen minutes, we’ll…”
The Tiger pushed open the car door lightly, “No need for fifteen minutes, to deal with this trash, five minutes will be enough.”
Once finished, he leaped down, landing with an extremely standard posture, almost unscathed.
Duan Cheng staggered and felt dizzy from the fall. Before he could even stand up steadily, a punch came at him, splattering blood from his nose. He stumbled back a few steps and fell into a puddle of water.
The rising tide washed over his face, his vision blurred as Tiger rushed at him once more. With studded combat boots, he ruthlessly stomped on his stomach.
Duan Cheng raised his hand to grab his leg, gritting his teeth as he let out a roar from the depths of his throat. Despite the pain, he managed to sit up and pushed the person away, flipping them over.
“F*ck.” Tiger reacted unexpectedly. Being a seasoned fighter, he quickly recovered, leaping up with a swiftness in his movements and a smirk on his lips.
“Trash, you still lack the strength of a man, are you trying to tickle me?”
Furious, Duan Cheng, his eyes red, lunged forward with raised fists. His punches were like the wind, swift and effective. If it were an ordinary person, they would have been knocked down long ago. Unfortunately, his opponent was Tiger, a boxing champion who had held a golden belt since childhood. Duan Cheng acknowledged his skills, but he realized they were not enough against him.
He attacked effectively, while he was defensively passive, blocking with his forearms.
Breathing heavily, Duan Cheng was caught off guard by a flaw, as his opponent grabbed his shoulder, pressed down, and simultaneously drove a knee into his vital abdomen.
In pain, Duan Cheng’s vision darkened, and before he could react, Tiger’s arm struck like lightning on the back of his neck, causing him to bend over. As he leaned down, Tiger grabbed his clothes and lifted his knee, which collided with his chin. A crisp sound echoed, bones cracked, and blood and teeth spilled out.
Tiger seized the opportunity and fiercely kicked him in the chest. Duan Cheng staggered back several steps, a burst of stars flashing before his eyes, his ears ringing. Before he could get into a defensive position, Tiger used the momentum from the first flying kick to leap into the air and viciously smash another kick towards his head.
Duan Cheng spat out fresh blood, flying and crashing heavily onto the beach, too weak to even lift his fingers.
The setting sun bathed him in its light. Duan Cheng squinted, his vision becoming increasingly blurry.
Is it… getting dark?
Why… Why can’t I see anything clearly?
He blinked his eyes a couple of times, his eyelids almost swollen shut from the beatings, only hearing the sound of the waves crashing against his body.
Through this small opening, he caught a glimpse of the light.
“Duan Cheng, you’re on the next dissection. You’ll handle the machine.”
“Sister Lin…” he murmured.
The scene shifted, and a tall, handsome police officer stood in front of him.
“Better to do something meaningful now, than be regretful later. Make yourself stronger to better protect those you care about.”
“Captain Song…” His eyes moistened slightly.
“I… still can’t do it.”
A woman’s slightly urgent voice echoed in his ears.
“Duan Cheng, come back alive!”
That was before they departed, after he kissed Fang Xin and turned to run, only to be suddenly stopped.
(If you're not reading on , it means this has been stolen)
Come back… alive.
He mulled over these words, as if a surge of strength, or perhaps the power of love and faith, filled his entire being, prompting him to move his fingers, grit his teeth, and slowly crawl forward.
Even as an intern, he was still in his police uniform, with the national emblem on his cap and the lights behind him.
Even if he was not on the front lines of investigation, Lin Yan’s actions were the best interpretation for him.
What does it matter if I’m useless? I’ve lived my whole life without any lofty ambitions. Does this world only have room for big shots? Even ordinary people can make a splash.
He gritted his teeth, endured immense pain, a resolute light shining in his eyes, and slowly crawled towards that figure with determination.
“F*ck, can’t take a hit.” Tiger spat on the ground, and seeing him motionless, he turned to leave.
But not long after taking a few steps, someone grabbed his leg.
Duan Cheng raised his head, his face covered in blood, yet he smiled like a man, his eyes wild and intense.
“I’m here. No one is walking away.”
“Lin Yan, Lin Yan…” Someone shook her shoulder in a daze, urgently calling out her name in her ear.
“Cough…” Lin Yan coughed out the ash in her throat, and opened her eyes somewhat confused.
Song Yuhang burst into tears and hugged her tightly.
“Yanyan, it’s so good that you’re okay.”
Lin Yan regained her senses, laboriously raised her hand to touch her face, wiped away her tears for her, and through the crack in the embrace, she saw that the warehouse that had just come out had been completely destroyed, causing her eyes to redden instantly.
“Lin Ge…” She looked at her with a hint of hope in her eyes.
Song Yuhang silently shook her head. It was hard to say if they could find complete bodies amidst such a massive explosion. If it weren’t for Lin Ge pushing them at the last moment, using his body and the iron door to shield them from the aftermath, they might have faced the same fate by now.
Lin Yan’s throat moved slightly, and tears fell down: “Brother… brother…”
She struggled to sit up and crawl towards the rubble. Song Yuhang pressed her down, hugged her tightly, cradled her face, looked into her eyes, and said word by word.
“Lin Yan, the Supreme Lord has not been caught, the mole has not been found out. I believe this matter is not so simple. Even though Lin Ge was extremely guilty and unworthy of pity, there must be deeper reasons behind his actions. At that last moment, he must have wanted you to live well and not do foolish things.”
“I know… I…” Lin Yan buried her head into her chest, clenching her clothes tightly, trembling all over, trying her best to not make a sound crying, but there was still a suppressed sob that leaked out between her lips.
Song Yuhang felt extreme sorrow, gently patting her back off and on, silently comforting her.
She knew that at this moment, no matter what words were spoken, they would be redundant.
How could human nature be so complex?
Because of his twisted emotions, Lin Ge had strayed down the wrong path, hurting Lin Yan’s best friend, causing the pain of her early life, yet at the moment of death, he was awakened by the subconscious call of “brother” from Lin Yan, stirring his remaining conscience.
Beyond hatred, there is also sorrow and lament.
However, compared to these, what she was most heartbroken about was Lin Yan. Within one day, two close relatives had passed away one after another. She feared that she would lose heart, she feared that she would blame everything on herself, she feared that she would be overwhelmed by it all.
“Lin Yan, it’s okay, it’s all over now, I’m here, I’m here, from now on, I am your family.”
No one had told her to hold back, but with someone offering comfort, tears flowed like a flood bursting through the gates.
(Support me at )
Lin Yan clung tightly to her clothes in front of her chest, kneeling in the rubble, crying loudly and bitterly, the sound tearing at the hearts of those who listened.
Song Yuhang’s eyes reddened as well. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, tightly embracing her, giving her all her love and warmth with her own body.
She didn’t rush her, just patiently waited for her to let it all out, gently patting her back all the while.
Finally, the sobbing ceased.
Lin Yan, with teary eyes, raised her head and softly said, “Let’s go.”
“Okay,” Song Yuhang lifted her by the waist, not waiting for them to turn and leave, the officers who had snapped out of their daze from the explosion surrounded them in a tight circle, to be precise, they encircled Lin Yan.
“What are you doing?” Song Yuhang’s expression was calm, with a hint of sharpness, shielding Lin Yan behind her.
The captain of the special police team was relentless, “Captain Song, this person is on the wanted list. Are you planning to betray us?”
Great, she was immediately labeled with such a heavy accusation.
Song Yuhang smiled faintly but not warmly, “Her name is Lin Yan, the former chief forensic investigator of the Technical Investigation Department of Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau, codenamed ‘Nail.’ She infiltrated enemy ranks to carry out top-secret missions. You, at your level, naturally wouldn’t know. Step aside and let her through!”
As she spoke, her tone had subtly intensified.
The captain of the special police team grit his teeth, glanced at her, then at Lin Yan, still feeling that something was suspicious.
“Just wait, we need to contact headquarters to confirm.”
Lin Yan was so angry that she shouted, “If you had time for that, you would have already caught the Supreme Lord, damn it!”
Song Yuhang lightly squeezed her hand, and Lin Yan understood. She nodded and took advantage of the moment when he was talking to his subordinates to request contact with headquarters. She suddenly made her move, punching him in the face, causing him to stagger, then delivering a sweeping kick that knocked him to the ground. Her strikes were not heavy, but they bought a precious moment of time for the two of them to break out of the encirclement.
“Captain! Captain!” Other team members rushed forward, but the two had already escaped.
Just outside the courtyard, there happened to be a police car parked. Song Yuhang pulled open the door and jumped in, with Lin Yan following closely behind. She quickly closed the door and fastened her seatbelt.
The car key was still in the ignition, and Song Yuhang swiftly turned it on, speeding away before they could come to their senses and give chase.
The captain of the special police wiped the blood from his face, cursing under his breath: “Damn it, we fell for their trick.”
“Get in the car, let’s keep chasing!”
