Chapter 896: Chapter 896: Will Not Shirk It!
Dongzi had spent several years in the detective circle and increasingly felt that in terms of tracking and investigation, he was absolutely top-notch!
This was no boast.
Someone who had been through a foreign legion and served as a special reconnaissance soldier, had honed their abilities through life and death experiences!
Exceptionally solid!
In fact, during his first two years as a detective, Dongzi was extremely cautious and careful, fearing that he would be noticed, that someone would discover him, and his vigilance was exceedingly high.
But along the way, he found that both his targets and peers were as dumb as pigs.
His skills, without even being fully deployed, completely overpowered them all.
Even Zhang Wang, who claimed to have studied abroad at America’s top institutions and taught retired special agents.
In Dongzi’s view, he was nothing special.
The increasingly arrogant Dongzi, today, finally met his match.
The other party had taught him a lesson through practical action.
Until the stranger’s hand landed on his shoulder, Dongzi hadn’t felt the slightest hint, nor did he know where the other person came from.
Eerie, like a ghost!
Dongzi felt that the large hand on his shoulder was like half a palm fan, very steady and powerful.
Even through his clothes, he could feel the thick calluses on that palm.
A trained individual, a master, an unparalleled master...
In an instant, Dongzi’s mind was buzzing nonstop.
The stranger exuded an ominous aura, perceptible only to those who had experienced life and death.
And only those who had been through the baptism of gunpowder, the smoke of the battlefield, could carry such an aura.
That long-absent terror made the hairs on Dongzi’s body stand on end.
Just as Lei Ying started to inquire, Dongzi’s body lurched backward, employing shoulder charges, elbow strikes, and even stomping, using every possible method to break free from the grasp of that hand.
"Eh? You’ve got some moves!" Lei Ying exclaimed in surprise.
Dongzi felt his shoulder charge blocked, his elbow strike intercepted, and his stomping met by a kick to his heel, causing excruciating pain!
He was pinned down at every turn!
Compared to the other person, he felt as weak as an insect!
After all his struggle, Lei Ying still stood behind him, and that fearsome large hand once again settled firmly on his shoulder, squeezing so hard that the sound of his bones creaking could be heard.
"I warn you not to move again, or I’ll knock you out, strip you naked, and throw you onto the street!" Lei Ying threatened.
"Okay, okay, I won’t move!"
Dongzi immediately capitulated.
"Look, you say you won’t move, but your right foot shifted three inches, your left shoulder raised slightly, and your body leaned back slightly, trying to use the ’Heartbreak Hammer’, right?"
Lei Ying laughed, "Sadly, your posture is too poor, the success rate is less than forty percent. Against me, you don’t even have a one percent chance of success. So, don’t try."
After hearing these words, Dongzi was so frightened that his soul nearly left his body; he dared not move an inch.
This was the life-saving move taught to him by his battlefield mentor, and now it had been seen through by the other person!
"No, how do you know the ’Heartbreak Hammer’? Nobody else knows that except for our squad members! You, you..." Dongzi was utterly horrified, unable to continue.
"Surprised?" Lei Ying laughed heartily, stepping back and releasing him, "I’ll tell you, I’m the one who invented that move! Technically speaking, I could be considered your mentor’s mentor!"
Dongzi turned around, his gaze shockingly fixed on Lei Ying.
Ten minutes later, at a roadside stall.
After checking the information to confirm there were no issues, Dongzi excitedly poured water for Lei Ying.
"I really must be blind to have not recognized greatness before me! If I had known it was you, not even several doses of courage would have led me to track you!" Dongzi confessed frankly.
This time he was truly and sincerely convinced.
Both of them had once joined the same foreign legion, but while Lei Ying did it to temper himself, Dongzi did it for money and ended up not even wanting the foreign nationality, taking the money to return to his country.
Regardless of their original purposes.
In any case, Lei Ying and he were not on the same level at all.
"You had our pictures, and had Lei Ying’s name; didn’t you recognize him then?" Lin Weiwei asked curiously.
"Hey, my sister. By the time I got there, this senior had already retired! And there, who remembers real names? We all used codenames, easier to remember," Dongzi said with a laugh.
"What’s his nickname?" Lin Weiwei asked curiously as she pointed at Lei Ying.
"The Phantom!" Dongzi looked at Lei Ying with solemn respect.
Back then, on the battlefield, Lei Ying was an existence that made enemies lose their courage just by hearing his name.
This nickname could keep his enemies up at night!
"It’s been a long time since I’ve heard that name," Lei Ying said with a smile, shaking his head.
The legendary Phantom, capable of chilling one’s heart with just a glance, could actually give off such a warm and gentle smile.
Dongzi looked shocked with just one glance.
If it weren’t for their hand-to-hand exchange just now, that overwhelming feeling still lingering in his mind, Dongzi really wouldn’t believe that Lei Ying was "The Phantom."
"What about you? What’s your name?" Lin Weiwei seemed to think that Lei Ying didn’t look fierce at all, so she asked Dongzi about his own name.
"The Hornet!"
Dongzi said somewhat shyly as if his own nickname was tens of thousands of miles inferior compared to Senior Lei Ying’s.
Lin Weiwei looked him over and thought quietly to herself, "Quite fitting..."
"Senior, what are you doing now, my client said, said that you..." Dongzi didn’t dare to continue.
"Now, I work as an assistant," Lei Ying answered quite naturally.
Dongzi couldn’t help but stare wide-eyed, swallowing hard.
He simply couldn’t imagine that the legendary figure from the battlefield had now become someone’s assistant.
He also wondered who could be capable enough to command such a powerful figure.
"Your client, is he surnamed Lin, named Lin Yu?" Lin Weiwei asked.
Dongzi snapped back to attention, hesitated for a second, glanced at Lei Ying, and Lei Ying was looking at him too.
Dongzi immediately nodded, "Yes, his name is Lin Yu, and traveling with him is a male and a female assistant. They’re all staying at the Central Hotel in Wuqiu."
Dongzi spilled the beans.
For him, Lei Ying was akin to a lifelong idol.
The power of an idol is naturally extraordinary.
Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but turn to Lei Ying and said, "They really did follow us!"
She originally thought that after Lin Yu and the others ambushed them in Yuquan, it would serve as revenge for the earlier defeat to Bai Xiaosheng, and since Bai Xiaosheng didn’t seem to want to pursue the matter, they would all just call it quits.
But she hadn’t expected Lin Yu to chase them all the way to Wuqiu.
"Are they planning to completely eliminate us!" Lin Weiwei immediately said angrily.
Dongzi blinked, clueless.
Lei Ying turned to him and said, "Your employer is actually from the same group as us, but there was some friction over business performance before. They suffered a loss, but then they took advantage and are now relentlessly pursuing us."
Dongzi frowned upon hearing this.
"So they are such shameless people! If I had known, I would have never taken this job!"
This guy idolized Lei Ying, hence the righteous indignation.
If it had been someone else, he wouldn’t care and would still take the money.
"Dongzi, we’re comrades in arms now. If I asked for your help now, would you give it?" Lei Ying asked.
"To go through fire and water, I would not refuse!" Dongzi immediately pounded his chest.
Lei Ying was his idol!
And thanks to the tricks passed down by Lei Ying, he had escaped death on the battlefield many times!
So, in Dongzi’s heart, any professional consideration was nothing compared to a word from Lei Ying.
"Lei, you say it, what do you want me to do!" Dongzi said.
"I want you to meet someone with me," Lei Ying said calmly.
"If he asks for something, you do it, don’t worry, he won’t trouble you!"
"If he says he doesn’t need you, then you are free to leave."
Could that person be the current leader of "The Phantom"?
Dongzi suddenly very much wanted to meet the other person.
"Alright, I’ll come with you!"
