Chapter 176: Chapter 153: Moon Fox Gene, Darkened Forehead (Subscription and Monthly Pass Requested)

"Miss Su, do you have anything else to say?"

Zhou Ping’an’s spirit was like a flame, his soul pure, and he could clearly distinguish between good and evil intentions.

Of course, he didn’t suffer from any nonsense about repaying evil with kindness, nor was he inclined to spare those who deserved punishment.

Since they were enemies, the best kind of enemy was a dead one.

"I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. It was Tan Shaoyang who forced me to frame Officer Zhou. My mother and sister are at home; they were threatened by him, and I got confused and made a mistake," she said.

It was unexpected.

Su Wenjing showed no intention of making excuses.

Perhaps she realized that the tide had turned and that it was crucial to save her own life.

She promptly shifted all the blame onto Tan Shaoyang.

Crying with her face bathed in tears, she looked the picture of misery.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall who had been scared to death suddenly came back to life.

Someone spoke up, "Actually, it’s not the Little Queen’s fault. She was coerced and is a victim too."

"Yeah, how could such a sweet young girl do anything bad?"

"Let’s forget it, the main culprit has been brought to justice. Officer Zhou, please don’t be hard on a weak woman."

Seeing the crowd’s passionate reaction, most people started pleading for mercy.

Zhou Ping’an found it amusing.

His expression turned exceedingly strange.

"Do you not realize that from the beginning, whatever the Little Queen said, you all believed?"

He pointed at the people in the hall and scoffed, "Think about it with your brains. Is this really your own will?

Do you not feel the danger of being controlled in mind?

Today, Su Wenjing could stir up your emotions with just a few words to frame me. If she wanted to frame you another time, what would happen then?"

When Zhou Ping’an spoke this time, he deliberately used his powerful spiritual power to shatter the subtle enchanting energy that Su Wenjing had been maintaining.

His words also made sense.

Immediately, some people started to come to their senses.

They all felt that their recent words and actions had been highly inappropriate.

Like impulsive youngsters, they had resolved Zhou Ping’an was a villain without understanding the situation.

Even after the truth was revealed, they ridiculously started to speak up for Su Wenjing.

Thinking of the implications of Zhou Ping’an’s words,

some quick-witted people had already guessed.

"Is she a Modified Human?"

"Mind Control, damn it..."

"Man, that’s way too dangerous."

Seeing the crowd in the hall had turned against her, Su Wenjing stopped crying.

She had been standing not far from the window without saying a word. She turned and leaped, smashing through the glass, ready to spring away.

Things were not looking good, and escape was the priority.

The seemingly frail Little Queen moved incredibly fast, like a rabbit, as she immediately dashed out...

Zhou Ping’an, although he started late, reached out to grab but missed.

’Could she be a speed-oriented Gene Modifier? No, while her speed is much faster than Tan Shaoyang’s, her main focus is still the mind...’

Exactly what kind of gene modification was it?

Zhou Ping’an was curious at that moment...

Seeing the slender silhouette leap into the night sky, Zhou Ping’an suddenly spoke up, "Don’t you want to complete your mission?"

His voice was low and fervent, carrying an indescribable strange sensation.

The people in the hall heard it but had no reaction.

Su Wenjing, however, seemed stricken by lightning.

Her entire body shook violently.

At that moment, she felt immensely unwilling. She thought of the astronomical amount of money and her potentially brilliant future in the spotlight...

If she ran away like this and messed things up, she might be met with a horrible punishment.

Later, she’d become a stray dog that everyone despised, useless trash, discarded.

’No, there’s still a chance. If I can capture him, I can make amends for my fault.’

A desire from deep within emerged and took over her entire mind.

Her body unconsciously radiated an azure light, her face elongated, her waist slimmed further, and even her ears pointed up...

She spun around and let out a piercing scream, twisting her waist and landing on all fours. She leaped back into the building from the window ledge, using the side of the wall for leverage, and curved around in an arc, landing behind Zhou Ping’an.

Her right hand bore long, sharp claws, aiming for Zhou Ping’an’s neck.

This twist, leap, pounce, and claw were executed with extreme agility and swiftness.

The howling was dizzying, making one feel weak and causing the heart to beat like a drum.

"Snap..."

Her claws reached Zhou Ping’an’s neck.

He remained motionless.

He only saw sparks where her claws made contact with his skin.

He reached out and grabbed Su Wenjing’s neck.

"So it’s fox genes, no wonder you understand enchantment and can move so quickly."

Under his power,

Su Wenjing, caught by the neck, was like a small chicken, helplessly flailing as she hung in midair, twisting and struggling with a look of absolute despair in her eyes.

"Moon Fox."

"That’s the Moon Fox gene."

By now, some people had recognized the paranormal manifestation of Su Wenjing’s gene modification.

"Incredible audacity to modify with the Moon Fox gene, to death with it."

"To kill that Ferocious Moon Fox Beast, the old district suffered over a thousand deaths. Who dared to continue with such transformations afterward? Investigate, find out who is behind this."

"This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous," Police Commissioner Wang said, looking as though someone had desecrated his ancestors’ grave; he appeared livid.

"In that battle, many of our Police Security personnel died or were injured. We have deep-seated hatred. The Moon Fox Gene Modifier has mental pollution, can manipulate people’s hearts, and you can’t get anything out of them. It’s safest to execute them on the spot."

This made some sense.

The clamor gradually subsided...

The lower echelons might not be clear on the situation, or perhaps they have been given a gag order.

However, the memory of the "Moon Fox Disaster" four years ago is still vivid in the minds of the higher-ups.

The key issue is the mind control skills, invisible and intangible, leaving victims clueless about what hit them.

Just like before, despite the trap being obviously crude, there were few among those present who could maintain a clear head and judge the situation.

Once such gene modifiers find an opportunity to exert their full power, those with insufficient spiritual power are like fish on the chopping board, completely at their mercy.

They might even die without knowing how they died.

Seeing no further objections, Wang Yulin took a gun from the security personnel who had just arrived and personally stepped forward. He took Zhou Ping’an’s hand and aimed at the head of the Moon Fox Gene Modifier, Su Wenjing, and fired three shots.

Zhou Ping’an did not try to stop him.

He could not only feel the frustration and discomfort in Wang Yulin’s heart.

But he could also sense that the moment he had captured Su Wenjing, the backlash of her spiritual power had burst in her forehead, her eyes rolling back, her mind fracturing into a chaotic mess.

Wang Yulin had hit the nail on the head by accident.

Indeed, it’s impossible to get anything out of a gene modifier who walks the path of mind control.

He had managed to use the powerful spiritual soul within him to momentarily, without any tool, directly employ the "Greed" of the Five Desires Evil Art with his voice, converging it to affect Su Wenjing’s thought processes.

However, he couldn’t make her reveal the individual behind the scenes.

The moment this woman realized there was no hope of escape, she simply shattered her mind and turned herself into an idiot.

Wang Yulin’s action, which resembled a cover-up murder, was utterly superfluous.

It made Zhou Ping’an even more certain that this man had something to hide,

Perhaps he was entangled with that mysterious power behind the curtain.

He only wondered if Taihe Pharmaceuticals had anything to do with it, or if it was them?

As Zhou Ping’an thought this, the murderous intent boiling within him began to simmer down.

Sometimes, not only friends can be of help, but enemies can also be of unintentional assistance.

It was a good thing that Captain Wang had a tight grip on the Special Combat Squad, controlling over five to six hundred policemen of the eleven teams within the city, as well as the five hundred members of the squad’s headquarters.

"Inspector Zhou, you did very well today. Youth does have its vigor,"

After killing Su Wenjing, Wang Yulin took a deep breath, his tone hardening, "Rest assured, I will give you an account of this matter. Even if Yao Zhenbang keeps his lips sealed, I will investigate and find out everything.

I will make sure our heroic officers neither bleed nor cry in vain."

He patted Zhou Ping’an’s shoulder considerately, sincerely saying.

"Thank you, sir. I’m not aggrieved,"

Zhou Ping’an stood at attention, giving a salute.

He answered loudly.

"Good, that’s the kind of talent we need in Dongjiang Public Security,"

Madam Chen, the councilor, also chimed in with a laugh, adding her praise,

"I was worried that our Dongjiang forces were too weak to act against the situations outside the city, resulting in heavy casualties and losses.

Inspector Zhou is very capable. We should nurture such young talents. Police Commissioner Wang, you might want to be more daring and give Inspector Zhou a bigger role to play."

"Councilor Chen’s point is well taken, that’s exactly what should be done,"

Wang Yulin said, nodding with a smile.

It was as if the emergence of a promising talent among his subordinates had brought him great joy.

"With Inspector Zhou safeguarding the area, going on missions outside the city will be much safer,"

"Exactly. My son, who went on a survey about the habits of ferocious beasts, is now trapped around Nine Bends Bay. Officer Zhou, if you’re going out of the city, help rescue him as well."

Soon, people started discussing excitedly.

Fuck...

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ping’an almost lost his composure.

Tang Tang beside him had her expression change...

The area outside the city was swarming with ferocious beasts.

Their Third Group’s police force was not enough to even stick between the teeth of those beasts; without a large armed contingent, they couldn’t even pass through many areas outside the city.

It seemed like they wanted to send Zhou Ping’an out of the city,

And the reason for it was unabashedly righteous.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility,

That’s the heavy hat they were trying to press down on him.

Unless Zhou Ping’an didn’t want to work in the Police Security system anymore, he couldn’t really resist such arrangements.

’What a cunning scheme.’

Tang Tang could sense the malicious intent behind it and was about to speak out.

But seeing Zhou Ping’an’s calm, almost serene eyes, she suddenly grew quiet, thinking, "The junior brother always has a plan. Let’s wait and see what he intends to do."

By then, the celebration banquet had naturally turned into a complete mess.

Even the most thick-skinned individuals were not in the mood to stay any longer.

After briefly exchanging pleasantries, they left in a hurry.

Zhou Ping’an didn’t say much either, just quietly got into Tang Tang’s little white car and left the Triumphal Restaurant, heading towards Jinguiyuan.

...

"What are your plans? No matter what decision you make, your sister will support you,"

While driving, Tang Tang puffed her cheeks like a disgruntled toad, clearly very upset.

"I’ve learned fortune-telling. That Captain Wang has a darkened forehead seal which could foretell misfortune..."

Zhou Ping’an said something that sounded superstitious.

"Just keep being cheeky,"

Tang Tang chuckled and gave Zhou Ping’an a sideways glance,

but refrained from asking anything more, focusing on driving.
