Zhan Long

Chapter 1268- Life is short

With a quest at hand, we had no way back. I sent Lin Wan Er a message and then silenced my phone. I changed into a new set of clothes, white shirt, black jacket. I also had two knives on my sides. I wrapped Butterfly in black cloth and carried it on my back. Apart from looking cool, there wasn’t anything suspicious about me.

……

At 5pm, Shen Bing and Pei Ying had a meal and discussed the bar alliance.

Shen Bing looked really beautiful today, she was in a white dress and looked like a fairy. She held a brown bag and drove the car that the base gave her. I stood on the grass patch and a few seconds later a big black BMW stopped. The window was rolled down and Xing Lie smiled, “Boss, let’s go, I am your partner today.”

I nodded. I placed Butterfly down and closed the window.

I switched on the tracker which was connected to Shen Bing’s phone. We followed her at a good distance. Xing Lie’s driving skills were decent and we maintained a 200 meter distance without being ditched.

Shen Bing’s dinner date was at a French restaurant and we stopped opposite it. Xing Lie took out a packet of dried beef and we ate while looking ahead with binoculars to ensure Shen Bing’s safety. Far away, Shen Bing was drinking. Pei Ying was interested in her so naturally, he drank more.

When they were done, my phone got a message from her, “I got a bit of info. Their Artificials drug is called Power Potion and it is bought from Busters so they are all recorded in a USB and it is at their home. I am following him back.”

I didn’t reply. It was too dangerous to send her a message now. I just told Xing Lie to follow.

……

Pei Ying and Shen Bing were relatively close when they exited. His arm was around her waist. Xing Lie punched the steering wheel and raged, “Damn, I really want to slice off his dirty hands!”

I frowned, “It seems like she isn’t driving and will sit in his car. Follow him carefully.”

“En.”

Xing Lie said in his earphones, “Group two pay attention, Pei Ying is leaving. Lock onto his few houses in the city and don’t let him get away. We will follow in ten minutes.”

Group two was led by Axe and another three members. An old golden van followed and it was similar to his style. He was so straightforward and if he was to drive a BMW as someone who doesn’t bathe in days, it would seem out of place.

……

Ten minutes later, darkness descended on Hangzhou. He actually didn’t go to his home but to Papa Bar. Xing Lie frowned, “He is a bastard, he wants to find more girls? Xiao Yao let’s go in?”

“No.” I sat in the car and looked outside, “We have done many missions and are on their blacklist. Let the new team go.”

“Okay!”

Xing Lie made arrangements through the phone, “Group two go, let the brothers enter. They found girls to enter the bar with them and used a forum private message to discuss the situation.”

A few minutes later, he turned and looked at me, “They are drinking. Pei Ying found a few friends and wants to get her drunk and bring her back.”

I said, “Don’t worry, I know her alcohol tolerance, it won’t be much worse than mine.”

“But she can’t handle a group?” He was anxious.

I was a little annoyed, “Then what, charge in and fail the mission? Remember, you are a cop, follow orders!”

Xing Lie gritted his teeth, ‘Sorry, boss…”

I slapped his shoulder, “I am anxious and also worried about Shen Bing’s safety but all we can do now is wait.”

“En.”

……

At 11, they finally sent a message. Shen Bing was tipsy and Pei Ying was holding her. His palms moved around her waist.

“Damn!” I shouted.

Xing Lie gritted his teeth. Shen Bing was our big sister and she took care of Xing Lie and the other brothers. Everyone respected and loved her.

Pei Ying drove drunk and headed away from Bluewater Street. We followed behind.

My phone received a message from her, “I am following him back, he promised to let me see that mysterious box. Don’t worry.”

How would I not be worried?

At around 12, the car parked in a residential district. Pei Ying carried her up and when Xing Lie wanted to drive over, I stopped him, “No, turn left and make a round. Someone is watching!”

At night, my eyesight was unrivaled. Pei Ying lived in a villa and there were over 7 people protecting him. Behind were 2 cars of Pei Ying men. At the same time, I could sense an energy fluctuation. There were Artificials and they were A Grade.

The risk of this operation increased. I said through the communication device, “All groups pay attention, danger has increased to S Grade. Pei Ying’s house has Artificials so be careful! After entering the zone switch off your engines, don’t show yourselves!”

……

Four guardian team cars entered and stopped. Shen Bing followed Pei Ying up and no one knew what happened.

I said on the communication device, “Use your police identity enter the cctvs and show us the scenes.”

In less than half a minute, the navigation system on the BMW changed and it showed us scenes in the room. One could see that Shen Bing was still in his arms and she was asking for something. I knew that she wanted that box. If she got it, Busters would get wiped out. We needed proof and this was it.

Very quickly, Pei Ying went to his safe to get something. It was a black box and when he clicked a button, the wings of the box spread out. Buster’s items were really high tech.

“She got it?!”

Xing Lie laughed.

I looked closely and sent a message to Shen Bing, “Knock him out and come out!

……

“Xiu!”

I charged in with Butterfly. I stepped on the patio and didn’t make a single sound. That A Grade artificial was still smoking, it was ass if he was smoking the bitterness of life away.

“En?!”

When he noticed me, I charged. Butterfly was cold in the moonlight.

“Damn…” He was only able to curse and red scales spread from his neck. His arm turned steel-like as he waved at me but it was too late.

“Ka!”

Butterfly sliced in from the top and sliced out from the bottom of the car. This A Grade artificial fell on the steering wheel and his head rolled. One shot, a sneak attack was just so simple!

……

Gunshots spread from a few other directions and from the sound it was ours. Pei Ying probably didn’t expect us to send so many people to help him. This operation should be a huge gift right?

On the patio, Shen Bing held a box and she was stumbling. Her face was red from the light and she smiled at me, “Evidence… It is here, hehe…”

Xing Lie smiled, “You let Pei Ying take too much advantage of you, Brother Xiao Yao was so angry!”

“Wu? Was he so concerned?”

I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. I raised my head but I saw a blue light that got stronger. I shouted, “Sister Shen toss the box, quick!”

‘Ah?”

Shen Bing tossed it but it was too late.

“Peng!”

Explosion spread out from her legs and it was so bright that no one could open their eyes. A blue shockwave spread the area and Xing Lie retreated before falling onto the ground.

……

“Shen Bing…”

My heart had a heart wrenching pain and I charged into the explosion zone. What I saw was unforgettable. Shen Bing was laying in the ashes and her legs were blown into ash. Her upper body was covered in blood and she shook. Her eyes opened wide and she wanted to take a final look at the world.

I pounced forwards and hugged her in my arms. Fresh blood seeped out. She looked at her legs, “My legs… Are gone…”

Tears dripped out. I looked at her and panicked, “Don’t look… Sister Shen don’t be afraid, you will be fine. You will be fine!”

He raised his head and shouted, “Men, call the ambulance. What are you doing? Call the ambulance!”

But everyone knew that it was too late. Shen Bing’s body had many bullet holes.

She grabbed my arm and tried to raise her head, “Little Li, let me look at you…”

I held up her neck and teared up, “I…”

Shen Bing smiled, “You can cry too?”

Find the original at Hosted .

My nose felt sour, “Don’t… Don’t say anything…”

“If I don’t say anything.. I won’t have the chance…” It was as if she wasn’t the one injured. She stared at me, “Unfortunate, Unfortunate… I can’t look at you like this anymore… What a waste.. The evidence is gone…”

My body shook, “Sister Shen, stop talking…”

“Kiss me for the last time?” She forced a smile, “Although I am… Not nice to look at now… I can’t tell you that I love you when I look good…”

“No, you look good, our Shen Bing always looks good…”

I wanted to lie but Shen Bing closed her eyes and her body slouched down. Her breathing disappeared.

……

I kissed her…

I didn’t cry but I just lowered my head and kissed her lips. All that I tasted was blood, it was really bitter.
