Chapter 721 Rush to Rescue
Chapter 721 Rush to Rescue
The sky in Jiangcheng is exceptionally clear tonight. The night sky is high and far away. Because the hot spring hotel is located in the suburbs, the light pollution is not that serious. Looking up, you can vaguely see a few wisps of clouds like gauze reflected by the light floating among the stars.
In the garden, Liang Ye and Zhi Yuan occupied two corners of the terrace respectively, looking at Li Nian who slowly got up from the bench.
They were also puzzled by Li Nian's leisurely attitude.
And not understanding means abnormality...
Whether it's the cheerful "Good Night" or the repeatedly demoted "Kite", neither of them is clueless when faced with truly serious situations.
Could the "thief" before him be bluffing?
Of course it's possible...but what if it's not?
Therefore, even when two "Level 3" faced one "Level 2", neither of them was arrogant at all.
"Thief, do you hear me? Give up resistance, stay where you are, and slowly raise your hands above your head."
Liang Ye spoke in a very standard manner, and even his words were in a standard broadcasting tone, without any accent at all.
Li Nian, who stood up from his chair, was not uncooperative.
She raised her hands high and her cell phone slipped into her wide sleeves.
However, Li Nian did not fully cooperate.
She took a step back and stood on the bench.
Liang Ye frowned: "Shit, you really have such low quality..."
Zhiyuan's expression grew increasingly serious: "No, Captain—she's too relaxed."
"We can't try anymore."
After Zhiyuan finished speaking, Liangye nodded in agreement.
"You're right, Kite."
Lin Yu, who was still clinging to the air conditioner unit, watched the brief conversation between the two and rushed towards Li Nian without any hesitation.
There is no pre-sway or hesitation.
Zhiyuan pulled the trigger from the side, dense flames came out of the muzzle, and bullets poured down, accurately covering the direction where Li Nian was standing.
Liang Ye's speed was even faster than the kite that fired the gun. While running towards Li Nian, he took out a fishing net and threw it towards Li Nian.
The two men were decisive enough - from receiving the order to persuade the other party to surrender, to discovering that the other party seemed unexpectedly confident and taking action directly, the whole process did not take more than five minutes.
As the captain of "Order", Zhiyuan is also the former inspector of the East China Region. Although the two have their own character flaws, there is no difference in their professional qualities and decision-making ability.
Unfortunately……
Sometimes even if you do everything right, things may not go as you wish.
"Shh-!"
Both the bullet and the fishing net fell on the spot where Li Nian was standing.
only……
There was no sound of bones piercing bullets or mesh falling on flesh.
Instead, there was a crisp "cracking" sound.
"Crack!"
Cracks appeared in the air—fishing nets and bullets were embedded in the invisible transparent mirror.
As the cracks spread and dense cracking sounds were heard, light reflected in the gaps into mirror images of various sizes, reflecting the astonished faces of the two captains of Jiangcheng "Order".
"Wow!"
Crystal-like fragments were scattered on the ground, carrying bullets and fishing nets with them, and the real bench behind them was revealed.
Li Nian's figure had long disappeared. A fair-skinned young man with peach blossom eyes, wearing a purple tuxedo and a top hat, was sitting upright on a bench, with an ebony cane inlaid with silver placed across his knees.
On both sides of the bench, smoke rose from nowhere.
"Dear guests, it's time for the great magician 'Thousand Illusions' to perform. The first act is a magical revelation. Do you enjoy it?"
Liang Ye and Zhi Yuan stared at the young man who suddenly appeared in front of them, both as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Behind him, Lin Yu's surprised voice sounded.
"Is this the 'Magician' from the 'Free Alliance'?! Why did he arrive so quickly?!"
Liang Ye smiled bitterly and said, "It's impossible that he just rushed here. He must have set up an ambush long ago... The 'Freedom Alliance' is really good at seeing through the 'Professor's' plan!"
"This shit is a trap for us!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Huan gently hooked the cane on his knee, stood up and said, "A trap? Targeting you? Ha... I just came to make sure our dearest thief sister won't be bullied by you."
Qian Huan's peach blossom eyes held a smile. "She's the youngest and least experienced member of our 'Freedom Alliance,' yet 'Order' has sent two captains and even an inspector. Isn't that a bit too much of a mobilization?"
Qian Huan said, Liang Ye looked at him and said, "In that case, let's not attack the 'Thief'... How about we just pretend that what happened tonight never happened?"
Before Qian Huan could speak, Li Nian's cheerful voice came from above everyone's heads.
"Ha, so are you planning on letting me go tonight? They just opened fire! Brother Lian, they shot at me!"
Zhiyuan reiterated, "It's a tranquilizer bullet!"
"Bullshit, your tranquilizer bullets are made of copper. I saw the shells on the ground. Why didn't you say they were Frigga bullets?"
Li Nian pointed at the brass-colored bullet residue on the ground and said.
"This is Night Vale's stuff, what do you know?"
Zhiyuan said helplessly.
Qian Huan naturally didn't believe Zhi Yuan's explanation: "Look, you two... I'm reasonable too."
"I have no intention of antagonizing you two, but... those involved in this incident within the Freedom Alliance disagree with this."
Qian Huan said this and Liang Ye sighed.
"Shit, so there's nothing to talk about?"
Qian Huan silently raised his cane and held it horizontally in front of him.
The atmosphere between the two sides is becoming increasingly tense, and at this time...
"Boom!"
Lin Yu flipped in from the air conditioner outside and landed behind Zhiyuan and Liang Ye.
"What are you doing in here now?" Zhiyuan immediately turned around and said seriously, "Since you know this guy, you should know... 'Magicians' are very dangerous!"
"This is not a battlefield you should set foot on!"
As Zhiyuan spoke, Qianhuan also laughed.
"Hey, I still remember you... You were that very cool 'Order' kid."
Lin Yu also looked at Qian Huan.
"Thank you for letting me go last time, but... Mr. Qianhuan, this time I have no choice but to stand against you."
Standing next to Liangye and Zhiyuan.
Qian Huan's expression remained calm as he spoke with a smile.
"I understand. After all, we have different positions..."
After saying this, he took off his hat and placed it on the chair.
"And it's not like I don't know how to ask for help."
As Qian Huan spoke, Zhi Yuan and Liang Ye's expressions changed slightly.
"what?!"
They subconsciously became wary of the third member of the "Freedom Alliance".
But Lin Yu vaguely realized that what Qian Huan was talking about was definitely not the other members of the "Freedom Alliance".
He recalled the scene in [The Banquet in Heaven] when he saw Qian Huan taking action, and immediately reacted.
"Watch out for the hat!"
As Lin Yu was speaking, he heard rustling sounds behind him.
Turning around, I saw that the hat on the bench had moved behind everyone at some point.
No… there was a mirror on the chair, and the hat was always behind them when it was put down!
Then, a snow-white rabbit, also wearing a tuxedo, popped out of the hat.
"Bingo! IamtheBESTMAGIC-BUNNY!"
