Chapter 129: Chapter 91: Thunder in One Hand, Sword in the Other, Lin Beichen Revealed Before All_3
There’s a way!
He listened by the wall again for a while, making sure they wouldn’t come out for a bit, then cautiously left the vicinity of the cave and returned to Alek’s corpse, searching it and finding a cell phone.
"Wonder if it’s dead."
Lin Beichen fiddled with it and found the phone was perfectly fine, all functions normal.
He smiled with relief.
Weighing the phone in his hand.
His gaze unconsciously turned towards the direction of the cave on the mountain.
"This feels like a long-awaited fishing trip."
...
...
Elsewhere.
Police cars with flashing red and blue lights, but no sirens, sped over and stopped not far from the village. One by one, police officers got out of the cars.
A mass of them stood in the rain.
Ready to strike!
Qian Yi stood at the forefront, constantly checking his watch. After a brief moment, he turned and asked the officer beside him, "Is it about time? Are all the brothers in position?"
"Captain Qian, let me confirm."
The officer communicated and then reported, "Captain Qian, the brothers have blocked all the routes around the village."
"Good."
Qian Yi nodded, then without wasting words, gave a vigorous wave to the officers and lowered his voice to command, "Move!"
With the order given.
He led the charge.
Leading hundreds of officers rushing towards the village.
"Plop—"
"Plop—"
"..."
The dark clouds hung low, the rain pouring down.
The chaotic footsteps echoed between heaven and earth.
An imposing force!
At the village entrance, in a pavilion.
A few elderly men and women sitting inside to shelter from the rain looked at the mass of officers rushing into the village and were completely stunned.
"What’s going on, why are there so many police?"
"Did something happen in our village?"
"Oh my, this formation... something big has happened!"
"..."
They had never seen such a grand scene.
Ignoring the rain, with no umbrellas in hand.
They stumbled against the wind and rain, running home.
Before these elderly men and women could limp their way home.
Qian Yi had already led the officers to take control of the courtyard that was previously used as a transaction spot.
In an instant, the small courtyard was filled.
Everywhere one could see the figures of officers.
No dead angles!
"Report, no targets found in the warehouse."
"Report, no targets found in the dry toilet."
"Report, no targets found in the east wing room." n𝚘𝚟𝚙𝚞𝚋.𝚌o𝚖
"..."
Officers reported back from all directions in the courtyard.
The targets were gone?!
Qian Yi frowned deeply, thinking: Did these people hear something and run?
When did they run?
Before he came?
Or after entering the village?
He wasn’t sure.
But this hideout was discovered with great difficulty.
He wouldn’t just call it off.
"Everyone!"
"Create a team to block all exits out of the village, then notify the brothers outside to start closing in from the village center!"
"The rest of the brothers..."
"Visit every household in the village and see if they are hiding in any villager’s home."
Then, Qian Yi glanced back at the dense forest behind him and said, "And this mountain, follow me for a thorough search!"
...
...
In the cave.
Hu Nodun and the other two were completely unaware of what was happening in the village below, as the lookouts who served as their eyes had been electrocuted by Lin Beichen.
They had grown impatient waiting for Alek.
Their patience had reached its limit.
Hu Nodun, frowning, took out his phone, muttering, "Damn it, is Alek slacking off? He should’ve crawled back by now even if he was crawling, why isn’t he back yet?!"
In their minds, the possibility of Alek running into trouble was unthinkable.
Cursing, Hu Nodun also dialed Alek’s phone.
"Ring ring... ring ring..."
The phone rang from outside the cave.
"????"
The three looked towards the cave entrance instinctively, thinking: Did he come back?
They couldn’t help but feel that Alek really was summoned by their thoughts.
But after waiting a bit.
The phone kept ringing.
But...
No one was in sight.
Then, Yahan leaned towards Hu Nodun and whispered, "Did Alek hear what you said and throw a tantrum, refusing to come in?"
"Nonsense!"
If it were the old Alek, Hu Nodun might have shown some respect, but after the recent mess, he’d had enough.
"Alek, get in here now!"
"..."
Hu Nodun’s shout received no response.
The phone kept ringing, but no one appeared.
"Damn it!"
Hu Nodun’s eyes were filled with killing intent and he said to another person, "Hadir, go and ’invite’ Alek in."
He emphasized "invite".
The meaning was clear.
Hadir understood, nodded, and got up to go outside the cave. Following the ringing sound, he quickly saw the phone on the ground.
"????"
"Where’s the person??"
Looking around.
He didn’t see a single person.
"Where did he go?"
"Why is just the phone here?"
"Did it drop?"
Confused, Hadir walked up to the phone, bent down to pick it up.
And at that moment.
Suddenly!
A ripping sound like lightning striking the earth echoed.
"Krrrack——!!!"
"???"
"What’s that noise?"
Before Hadir could grab the phone, he instinctively looked up at the sound.
Suddenly!
