Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Easily Passing the Final Hurdle
Lin Wan kicked the Uzi submachine gun that had fallen to the ground aside and casually frisked the two men, finding two more pistols.
With a sweeping kick, she sent the two unlucky gunmen flying to the side, groaning in agony but unable to get up. Lin Wan flashed back to Hong Liang’s side, "Brother Hong, are you okay?"
"Whoa! Awesome!"
Even in the crisis, Hong Liang couldn’t help but exclaim, "I’m fine, check on Jiao Tianye!"
The two of them went over to Jiao Tianye and found his luck had held; he hadn’t been hit by stray bullets.
"Jiao Tian, how are you?"
"Miss Lin, you’re a goddess of war!" Jiao Tianye exclaimed first, "I’m fine, just a bit shaken."
"Lin Wan!"
At that moment, Lu Zheng suddenly appeared, looked around, and squinted.
He had just come outside the airport when he heard a muffled explosion, followed by screams from the underground garage.
Lu Zheng quickly cast an Invisibility Technique on himself and rushed over. However, by the time he arrived, Lin Wan had already finished the fight.
"Nice work!" Lu Zheng laughed.
"Lu Zheng! Get out of here quickly, there might be more danger!" Hong Liang shouted.
The opponent’s action had failed, but it was difficult for them to reach the destination as planned. Japan was their territory, who knew if there was a second wave.
Hong Liang had good intentions, and Lin Wan was unharmed, so Lu Zheng nodded, signaled to Lin Wan with his eyes, and then turned around the corner, disappearing from their sight.
Simultaneously, his voice reached Lin Wan’s ears, "I’m nearby."
Lin Wan’s lips curled slightly, nodding gently.
"Call the ambulance!"
"No, let’s get to the Police Headquarters first!" Jiao Tianye struggled to stand up.
At that moment, the phone rang.
"Moshi moshi?"
"The courier was killed, Ueda Squad was bombed, all wiped out!" The voice on the phone was frantic, "How are things on your side?"
"We also encountered a bomb attack and gunman ambush, but Officer Lin resolved it!"
"Huh? You’re okay?"
"We’re heading to Police Headquarters right away!"
"Good! Hurry! I’ve already sent people to support you!"
Lu Zheng’s puzzled voice reached Lin Wan’s ears, "Aren’t you a decoy team? He’s so badly wounded, why head to the Police Headquarters, are you holding the original?"
Lin Wan shook her head, "We don’t even know if what we have is the original. The unlock code is at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, so our mission is to deliver it there."
"So meticulous..." Lu Zheng couldn’t help but mock, "Alright, you go ahead, I’ll follow from the side."
Lin Wan’s lips curled slightly, nodding gently, then helped Hong Liang lift Jiao Tianye.
Due to the explosion, pedestrians in the underground garage had scattered and fled. The three of them emerged from underground, finding a crowd gathered at the exit.
Don’t think only people from Hua Country like to watch the scene. It’s human nature to watch and gossip. It just seems more pronounced where it’s safe.
The three were about to hail a taxi when they saw a bystander suddenly collapse not far away.
"Clatter!"
A pistol fell to the ground simultaneously.
"Ahhhhh!"
Cries of alarm as the crowd scattered like birds.
"What’s going on?" Hong Liang asked in shock.
"Don’t know! Maybe it’s a sudden stroke, whatever!" Lin Wan said casually.
Hong Liang: ???
This was not the time to worry about that. A taxi was just driving by, and Hong Liang went ahead to stop it, speaking fluent Japanese, "We’re Interpol officers and just got attacked, take us to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department!"
"Hai!"
Hong Liang spoke Japanese and sat in the front, while Lin Wan helped Jiao Tianye into the back and began to administer basic first aid.
"Damn it, Hatanaka Shingo is just the chairman of the Silver Light Group, how can he mobilize such forces in Tokyo? Who’s really behind him?" Hong Liang complained, "Isn’t Japan’s gun laws strict? How are bombs and gunmen still a threat?"
Jiao Tianye curled his lips, "Gun laws restrict civilians, and even the underworld’s access to firearms is limited, but it can’t control top conglomerates and families."
Hong Liang sneered without responding, remaining vigilant and scanning outside the car.
"The bombs and gunmen failed, and the assassin at the garage exit mysteriously failed, shouldn’t there be no more threats?" Lin Wan asked.
"No, those two gunmen were backups, and the person at the gate was likely the one detonating the remote bomb." Hong Liang explained, "The target is double-guaranteed on-site; theoretically, we shouldn’t escape, like the other two teams. But if we get away, they have no backup, how is that possible?"
"Police Headquarters entrance?" Lin Wan immediately realized.
"Yes!" Hong Liang nodded, "There must be a final safeguard at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department entrance."
Jiao Tianye struggled to say, "Maybe we should wait for reinforcements."
"You sure you can react faster than them?" Hong Liang remarked, "I’m afraid we’ll meet the assassins before the reinforcements."
Jiao Tianye, "..."
...
The taxi sped through city streets, the driver driving anxiously. Though he didn’t know what lay ahead, the bloodied officer seated behind him was enough to make the atmosphere tense.
As the taxi neared the city center, traffic thickened, slowing their pace.
Soon, a green light turned red at the intersection ahead, halting the taxi in the middle of the road.
"Almost there! Two more blocks," Jiao Tianye gasped.
"Drone!"
Lin Wan spotted two drones suddenly flying out from the left-side building.
"The drones have machine guns attached!" Hong Liang shouted, "Get out of the car!"
At the same moment, a van suddenly crashed through the side road intersection.
"Get out!"
Lin Wan’s eyes narrowed, ready to open the door when the two drones exploded mid-air.
"Boom! Boom!"
The van did not stop, speeding across the road and crashing into a streetlamp on the opposite side.
"What’s going on?" The driver cried out in panic.
"Drive!" Hong Liang shouted, his eyes filled with uncertainty.
The mid-air drone explosions—were they the work of Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department snipers?
And what about that van? A coincidence?
Lin Wan curled her lips, gently tapping the driver’s seat, "Don’t worry, we’re safe. Just one more block to go."
The driver, visibly tense, replied in Japanese, "What? I don’t understand what you’re saying!"
Lin Wan: Õ_Õ
