Diary of a Criminal Investigator

Chapter 659: Pursuit Battle

Lu Chuan looked up, and the hooded man had just arrived at the stall."Confirmed?"

If Lan Bingyu was not mistaken, then they should take immediate action to capture him.

But if they made a mistake, they might alert the target.

Because if Lu Chuan and the others guessed correctly, and Chen Kai was targeting several big bosses from the past, then their people might be lurking nearby, looking for an opportunity to strike.

If they revealed themselves now, the target could likely retreat.

"Should be..."

Lan Bingyu wasn’t entirely sure.

The fight back then ended very quickly.

Moreover, this man was the one who had fought Zhang Hui.

So Lan Bingyu merely noticed the figure seemed familiar.

However, before Lan Bingyu could respond, Lu Chuan had already rushed out of the car.

At this moment, Lan Bingyu also realized what was happening.

Just now, the hooded man at the stall had suddenly pulled out a dagger and slashed at Zhang Jianbing’s neck.

This gang was extremely bold.

Committing murder on the street, in front of Lu Chuan!

Absolutely lawless!

The stakeout location where Lu Chuan and Lan Bingyu were squatting was about 30 meters away from the stall.

The attacker was incredibly fast with the blade, and Lu Chuan saw blood spatter the moment the dagger swung.

However, Lu Chuan’s actions were also very swift. In just a few seconds, he could sprint the 30 meters to the hooded man’s side.

The attacker, after landing the strike, was ready to leave.

As he turned, he saw Lu Chuan sprinting towards him.

Yet, the attacker seemed completely unflustered.

Lu Chuan even saw mockery in his eyes.

So confident?

"Hua Country police! Kill!"

Though the hooded man’s Mandarin was terribly accented, Lu Chuan still understood what he meant.

The hooded man didn’t turn his back to run; instead, he charged toward Lu Chuan.

Within two breaths, the 30-meter gap closed as they collided.

In the middle of the street, the hooded man swung the dagger like lightning, aiming straight for Lu Chuan’s chest.

Clearly, he intended to kill Lu Chuan in one move.

Lu Chuan snorted coldly, eyes fixed on the dagger, maneuvering deftly to subdue him.

Clang.

The hooded man’s dagger was knocked to the ground by Lu Chuan in one strike.

The attacker appeared bewildered.

He stared blankly at Lu Chuan, then at his own right hand which had just held the dagger...

An expert!

Fierce Ghost, having been through life and death with the Myanmar Gang for so many years, faced an opponent who disarmed him within moments—this Hua Country cop was definitely an expert.

Amidst the traffic, the two faced off.

At this time, Lan Bingyu had also rushed to Lu Chuan’s side.

"Director Lu!"

The attacker clearly recognized Lan Bingyu.

Knew her prowess.

After all, they had only clashed yesterday, where this policewoman had only sustained a minor injury from his companion.

The hooded man stepped back slightly; even facing Lu Chuan alone, he lacked confidence in winning. With Lan Bingyu added to the mix, defeat was certain.

"Go check on Zhang Jianbing! Don’t let him die!"

Lu Chuan didn’t let Lan Bingyu assist him; Zhang Jianbing had just been slashed, his condition unknown.

Lan Bingyu cast a resentful glance at the attacker.

"Director Lu, his leg skills are formidable, be careful!"

With that, Lan Bingyu dashed toward Zhang Jianbing.

Leg skills?

Lu Chuan clenched his fists loosely!

"So, you’re the one who stabbed Zhang Hui twice, right?"

Among the entire Criminal Investigation Team, Lu Chuan and Zhang Hui had known each other the longest, and their relationship was also very close.

Over the years, they had fought side by side, solving numerous major cases.

But in a simple arrest operation, Zhang Hui was stabbed in the chest and abdomen, almost meeting King Yama!

Lu Chuan wanted this hooded man to know what it felt like to be stabbed!

Whish!

The brisk wind howled.

Lu Chuan lunged forward with a straight punch aimed at the attacker’s face.

This punch, powerful and fierce, seemed like a thunderbolt to the hooded man.

If it landed solidly, it would surely break bones and spill blood.

The opponent stepped forward and raised a leg for a straight kick.

Legs are longer than arms.

If Lu Chuan didn’t change his move, he would definitely be kicked down first.

But unexpectedly, Lu Chuan continued his forward thrust, showing no signs of altering his move.

"Haha! Seeking death!"

Seeing Lu Chuan charging at him still, the attacker grinned viciously, putting even more force into his kick!

Just as they were less than two meters apart, in the blink of an eye, as Lu Chuan was about to be kicked away.

Lu Chuan swung his straight punch downward, striking the opponent’s ankle.

Using this momentum, he pushed back with his right foot, performing an aerial spin kick!

Smack!

An arced kick landed heavily on the attacker’s forehead!

This kick carried immense force, with Lu Chuan’s entire bodyweight, combined with the inertia of the spin kick, amounting to two to three hundred kilograms.

Although the skull is the hardest bone in the human body, capable of withstanding 200 to 500 kilograms of pressure.

Faced with this kick, the hooded man’s vision blurred, nearly knocked unconscious.

In the instant of the opponent’s daze, Lu Chuan did not stop, flipping over to pick up the dagger he had just disarmed.

Squelch!

The sound of blade slicing into flesh made one’s teeth ache.

This stab, Lu Chuan did not aim for a fatal spot.

Instead, it pierced into the outer thigh.

This area lacks major arteries but has a well-developed muscular system.

With the dagger cutting through, the muscle bundle got severed, significantly reducing the opponent’s combat ability.

Whoosh!

The dagger was pulled out, bringing a gush of blood.

Lu Chuan was about to stab again!

But Fierce Ghost, despite being a top killer from the Myanmar Gang, snapped out of his daze from Lu Chuan’s kick to the head.

He immediately withdrew, rolling away.

Lu Chuan’s second stab struck the asphalt road.

With a swift sweep kick, Lu Chuan had to roll away, thus creating some distance.

The fight between them was extremely rapid, though narrated slowly, in reality, the few bouts they’ve exchanged passed in just three to five breaths since Lan Bingyu left.

Fierce Ghost retreated, opening the distance, as Lan Bingyu barely crossed the street, reaching Zhang Jianbing.

Only now did the surrounding crowd react, screaming and scattering.

The passing vehicles on the road also came to a screeching halt.

Humph!

Fierce Ghost fixed his gaze on Lu Chuan, letting the wound on his head bleed, blurring his face.

The wound on his leg seemed nonexistent.

He just stared hard at Lu Chuan.

"You’re Fierce Ghost, aren’t you?"

Lu Chuan wasn’t too concerned; while the opponent was formidable, he still wasn’t his match.

"Surrender now and strive for leniency; it’s your only option!"

Although Fierce Ghost couldn’t speak much Mandarin, having grown up at the border in the Myanmar Gang, he naturally understood it.

"Hua Country police, you’re formidable!"

"But... can you overcome this?"

Saying that, he reached into his jacket.

Damn!

Lu Chuan’s pupils dilated sharply.

His worst fear was that the opponent had a gun!
