Chapter 177: Chapter 155 Interactive Advancement, Dual Guns Side by Side (Seeking Subscription, Seeking Monthly Pass)

"Turn right."

Zhou Ping’an suddenly opened his eyes, looked up at the colorful street scene beside the road, and said in a deep voice.

Tang Tang reflexively turned the steering wheel, smoothly driving the little white car into a fork on the right, circling around the roundabout, and surprisingly heading back in the direction they had just come from.

"Ping’an, there’s something I don’t know whether I should say. Actually, I also want to shoot Wang Yulin, but after all, he is the captain of the Special Combat Squad and a current police inspector. He can die at the hands of anyone, but he absolutely cannot die at our hands."

Now, in the eyes of outsiders, Tang Tang considered herself and Zhou Ping’an to be like two grasshoppers tied to the same string, especially after the events of tonight, which would undoubtedly attract attention from all sides.

Countless spotlight-like gazes sternly fixed on them, and even on the Third Group.

If they did anything bad to Inspector Wang Yulin at this point, even showed some kind of hostility, it would immediately raise suspicions.

Don’t look at those department officials and social elites, most of them are just good-for-nothings who don’t do a single piece of real work all day and only know how to enjoy life.

But they are actually not fools at all.

If they were really that foolish, they wouldn’t have been able to hold their positions.

They would have been swallowed whole, skin and bones.

Those with keen eyes could see the interests involved at a glance.

"What are you thinking about?"

Zhou Ping’an chuckled.

"Even if I were to take down Wang Yulin, I wouldn’t do it openly, nor would I bring even a slight hint of suspicion upon us. Overthrowing superiors is not a good reputation to have."

These days, although the time was short, Zhou Ping’an felt as if he had lived a lifetime.

Especially after his spiritual power was increased multiple times by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire and Wishful Thought Power, his soul had grown significantly.

He found that things he used to find incomprehensible were now clear.

Emotions that had been vague in the past could now be analyzed distinctly.

This might be what growth in IQ and EQ looks like.

It’s related to the purity of the soul and also to the strength of the body.

Tang Tang could understand what was evident, but he understood it even more profoundly.

Life is like a chess game, society is like a net.

This "Jianghu" is not just about fighting and killing. Most of the time, it requires understanding of human relations.

If one goes on fighting and killing, leaving behind a trail of corpses,

sooner or later, they will find themselves isolated and everyone as their enemy.

Moreover, the world isn’t just as big as Dongjiang—there are Linhai, Capital City, Zhuxia, and many nations.

In the early stages of raising oneself, being labeled as a "rebel" can only imagine how much resistance this will add to future endeavors.

Therefore, although Wang Yulin can’t be kept, the method and manner of dealing with him need to be carefully considered.

"Then what is this?"

Since they weren’t turning back to kill Wang Yulin, Tang Tang became even more curious.

"Do you not think that tonight’s banquet was designed too cunningly? A slight misstep could have had us cornered by two Gene Modifiers. Guess who’s behind it?"

"Wang Yulin? It doesn’t seem like it. Madam Chen, it’s also impossible. If these two were to make a move, they would do it straightforwardly, using their overwhelming power, leaving us with no chance to resist.

Tonight’s setup, however, was extremely dark and sinister. If you had acted rashly earlier and started a massacre, you would have immediately secured a place on the wanted list and no longer have a foothold in Dongjiang."

Thinking back to the previous meticulous plotting, Tang Tang carefully considered and felt a cold sweat breaking out on her back.

If it were not for those social elites and heads of departments suddenly waking up as if from a dream, allowing Zhou Ping’an to clear the grievances and clarify the situation thoroughly, Wang Yulin probably wouldn’t mind summoning the Special Combat Squad to capture Zhou Ping’an.

If Zhou Ping’an refused to yield quietly, it would naturally lead to a river of blood.

The situation would then be completely broken.

In all this, there actually was a doubt.

That Gene Modifier called Su Wenjing, also known as the Little Queen, why did her Mind Control Technique fail? Could it be that she was newly transformed and had not mastered it yet?

Did she become flustered and make a mistake in the face of a complex situation?

Thinking this, Tang Tang secretly glanced at Zhou Ping’an and suddenly felt that her junior was becoming more and more mysterious.

She had some guesses in her heart but did not dare to think further.

Her junior brother was prudent.

If there was something he needed her to know, he would definitely tell her.

If he didn’t mention it, it meant that the matter was not important, and knowing too much might not be good for her.

Regathering her wandering thoughts, Tang Tang focused her attention ahead, carefully looked at the position outside the car window, and suddenly realized, "Junior brother has figured out that the person who plotted this is still nearby watching. Indeed, to design such a sophisticated drama without caring about its aftermath would be unusual."

After all, being an inspector used to solving countless cases, with just a slight hint, she had figured it out.

This time, she didn’t need Zhou Ping’an to guide her again.

The little white car wove left and right through the traffic and soon arrived in front of a skyscraper eighteen stories high.

Xinghe Commerce.

"If someone were observing, then this place, facing directly towards the Triumphal Restaurant and not too far from it, would offer an unobstructed view..."

Honestly, if I were a sniper, the rooftop of this office building would undoubtedly be the best spot for a stakeout."

’Sister’s talent for solving cases is actually very formidable; it’s just that often her brain is overshadowed by her straightforward way of handling things, as well as her fiery figure and gorgeous face.’"

Zhou Ping’an looked at Tang Tang in surprise.

Yet in his heart, he was secretly astonished.

Even the rash and bold sister was learning to use her brain; navigating this world might really be getting tougher.

He hadn’t figured out why he was here by analysis.

It wasn’t necessary to analyze.

While standing at the window back at the Triumphal Restaurant, he distinctly felt several gazes fixed on him from a distant place.

Though the distance was somewhat significant.

The malice carried by those gazes was uncomfortably disturbing.

Were they surveilling or just observing?

No need to question further.

Considering the conspiracies within the hotel, the owners of these gazes went without saying.

The two left the car and headed straight to the top floor.

This time, they didn’t take the elevator but climbed the stairs instead.

Before the security and receptionists in the lobby could even speak, Tang Tang had already knocked them out with his strike.

As they reached the fourteenth floor, at the turn of the stairwell, a gun barrel suddenly protruded, spitting flames...

Clearly, their opponents reacted very quickly.

They had already spotted the two.

"How about, Senior Sister, you fall back?"

Taking cover at a corner, Zhou Ping’an tentatively asked as they alternated between advancing and retreating.

The opposing force was fierce, using T18 assault submachine bullets that punctured deep holes into the walls. He was already channeling the King of Light’s Golden Body at full strength. Even if a bullet hit him, at most, it would penetrate the epidermis and lodge into the muscle, posing no real threat to his life.

But Tang Tang was different.

"Junior Brother, you really shouldn’t underestimate me, think about how your Senior Sister became the leader of the Third Group."

Tang Tang swiftly wiped her hand down the outer side of her thigh, drawing out a pair of sleek silver handguns, and shouted, "Advance alternately, shoot in bursts."

Before her words had finished, taking advantage of a volley of bullets passing by, she backed against the stairwell, flipped upward five steps, and with her guns spinning along with her figure, still airborne, she fired seven shots in quick succession—"bang bang bang."

The gunfire was deafening and overpowered the enemy’s spray of bullets.

Zhou Ping’an had excellent eyesight.

He saw in an instant, at the stairwell, on floors fifteen, sixteen, and seventeen, a gunman each was struck directly, thrown backward, going silent.

The one on the fourteenth floor because he had leaned out too much.

Got struck by a bullet, under the massive force, he was lifet up, and a fist-sized hole was torn through his bulletproof vest at the chest.

"What kind of guns are these?"

Zhou Ping’an was greatly amazed.

As he spoke, his figure, light as smoke, skimmed past Tang Tang, with full concentration. Each time a gunman in black showed head or hand, he preemptively shot them down.

They blocked the whole stairway perfectly.

The two moved up, covering each other in turns.

Suddenly, three stories were conquered in one leap, and the enemies, besides blindly extending half a gun out and firing randomly, posed no threat at all.

Tang Tang’s movements and marksmanship were extremely synchronized, her action seamless—a style that seemed to merge martial arts with gunplay. It must be the "gun-fighting technique" she often talked about.

In Zhou Ping’an’s view, although it was clever, it wasn’t particularly deep and arcane.

He observed for a moment and almost grasped it entirely.

Tang Tang performed this well probably because she had specially trained hard recently. Now achieving results, she showed them off, likely to surprise him.

It was indeed a surprise.

But what Zhou Ping’an cared about more were the guns in Senior Sister’s hands.

Those two silver handguns had an eagle motif carved on the handle. The bullets they fired were comparable to sniper’s armor-piercing rounds.

Unparalleled power.

He had just noticed.

A single bullet hit the corner of the wall, collapsing it entirely, and the round penetrated through, instantly killing a gunman behind it who was spraying bullets.

The only downside was also apparent.

Due to firing dozens of shots in quick succession, Tang Tang’s right arm trembled slightly, and the base of her thumb began to swell.

Presumably, the recoil from firing the gun was also strong.

Her strength wasn’t yet enough to sustain a prolonged battle.

"Jealous, aren’t you? This gun is custom-made, from the same lab as your ’little crocodile mouth’. It took me a lot of effort to get these two for a trial. I’ll try to get a couple for you next time."

"No need for that, no point in always owing favors."

Zhou Ping’an patted the "Cang Yue" longsword on his back, thinking that a more powerful gun wasn’t much use to him.

If an enemy couldn’t be killed by a standard handgun, then drawing his sword and slashing once should do the job.

If one slash couldn’t manage it, then two slashes.

He didn’t believe.

In this place, there was anyone who could withstand an attack empowered by his swordsmanship and Cang Yue’s precious blade.

The only concern was the lab.

The technology was more advanced than he had expected.

If such advanced and powerful firearms were mass-produced, they might pose a threat even to his present peak Copper Body Realm and King of Light’s Golden Body.
