Special Forces Medic

Chapter 1283: Chapter 1262: Midnight Ambush (2)

No matter! As Xiao Lin attacked the nearest person, his cold eyes swept over the enclosure that surrounded him, his right hand clenched into a fist, while the spike in his left hand spun swiftly. His iron fist struck fiercely, landing precisely on the person’s shoulder bone. Under the force, the entire shoulder instantly deformed, with no signs of bones breaking through, yet the sound of joints snapping was heart-pounding. However, it wasn’t over yet. Just as the opponent was focused on their shoulder, the spike in his left hand decisively appeared at the back of their head. Without hesitation, it pierced into the posterior neck artery, tearing open the flesh, blood gushing.

After taking one down, Xiao Lin didn’t hesitate, moving swiftly and forcefully to stab at another black-clad person’s elbow. All the motions unfolded like lightning, leaving no time to defend or attack. The muscular arm and solid bones were immediately stirred by the spike, lifting even the tendons under the muscles. Under continuous assault, blood splattered everywhere.

The originally tight enclosure fractured due to such changes, mostly because everyone wanted to avoid being the next victim of this man’s frenzied attack. Yet they were compelled by their mission to maintain the encirclement. This conflicting clash only provided Xiao Lin with more room to maneuver. His right hand formed into a claw, forcefully pulling at the opponent’s injured arm, removing half of it, accompanied by screams. In a moment, his right claw gripped the throat bone, pulling outward forcefully, tearing the trachea on the spot, causing instant death.

The black-clad men stood frozen, their eyes flickering. Xiao Lin’s figure vanished, and seconds later, truly horrifying screams echoed again, as a few more fell in the darkness. The fear in this moment was beyond words.

"Retreat!"

With a loud shout, the black-clad men disappeared from Xiao Lin’s view like a gust, even quicker than when they arrived.

Exhaling deeply, the people killed tonight were indeed many. Blood covered his hands, dripping through his fingers onto the ground.

The car was wasted, still a long way from the mountaintop, really a killer situation! He crouched, cleaning the bloodstains on a corpse before walking straight upward.

Tonight was still a strange night, with no people, no sirens, no police, as if they had suddenly vanished. Despite such a commotion, by usual standards, wouldn’t Meisai’s sheriff have appeared here long ago? How come the police are all on leave today? So quiet!

Leave is certainly impossible, which indirectly suggests that this conspiracy was informed in advance, with orders pressed down from above, orders even higher than the police chief? Is it really you, Murong Lengyue? I hope it’s not you, not for any reason. I don’t want it to be you. There’s no third chance!

In denial, there’s affirmation; within trust, there’s uncertainty. Such contradictions left Xiao Lin baffled. He didn’t like Murong Lengyue, not in the slightest. He simply didn’t want to provoke this woman. She was just a pitiable woman; hurting a pitiable woman was never what Xiao Lin wanted to do. Because pitiable, therefore hateful—this phrase really fit Murong Lengyue at this moment.

Raindrops washed the ground, flushing the blood down from above. Xiao Lin sighed; he seemed to be sighing all the time recently. After the intense exercise earlier, his mind felt emptied, with nothing left. Gazing at the emerging treetop, he took a deep breath, toes touching the ground, and leapt out.

Dealing with those assassins had already taken considerable time, and the commotion, even if it didn’t draw police, had surely alerted the ’Wagangnai’ people.

Dan Ning looked at the glass washed by rain, his lips twisted into an awkward pose. When Xiao Lin’s car drove into ’Wagangnai,’ messages had already been relayed, spurring those lurking within ’Wagangnai’ into action.

Not catching these people previously was merely to see what they aimed to do. Unexpectedly, their target was Xiao Lin, and they were a group intent on taking his life.

To intervene or not? It was a difficult choice, as Dan Ning stood at the bedside with personal concerns. The door pushed open from outside, his confidant entered hurriedly, bringing the latest news.

"How is it?"

"The opponent’s firepower is strong, the car is destroyed!"

"Ah!" Dan Ning frowned, just like that? It shouldn’t be. "What about the person?"

"Almost at the mountaintop!"

Really! Dan Ning’s furrowed brow relaxed; couldn’t the report be given all at once? His worry seemed excessive— that kid’s life wouldn’t end just like that.

"No police showed up?"

"It’s very quiet!"

Dan Ning nodded, feeling a bit unclear and ambiguous. It seemed that even the police were somewhat wary this time. He exhaled. "Clean up the scene, we’ll do the finishing touches as a favor." This time, even Xiao Lin didn’t seem eager to fight, otherwise he wouldn’t have let those people escape. We’ll treat it as doing a favor this time, but next time Xiao Lin has to pay for the cleanup work.

"Boss, about that batch of goods..."

"Ah! Let that guy named Shao feast on it. Eventually, he’ll have to pay me back with interest." Thinking about the goods taken away, Dan Ning’s face twisted with anger. "Go to the mountain top and see what that guy is up to in the middle of the night."

Visitors are guests, but I’m the host here, there’s no way to pass by and miss out.

"Boss, you seem to really like Young Master Xiao!" Dan Ning’s longtime confidant naturally understood his boss quite well, especially when it came to this rival in love.

"You handle the cleanup work personally!" The confidant’s mouth twitched slightly; he deserved it for stepping on the boss’s tail!

’Wagangnai’! Mountain top! Completely unaffected by the rain, the flat ground remained dry and smooth, unaffected by the rain. There were no barriers blocking the rain; rather, the raindrops evaporated upon hitting the platform, so even though the surroundings were damp, this place had a dry reason.

It seemed they knew Xiao Lin would come, as several white figures were already waiting at the platform, identical faces, identical demeanor, identical expressions, scrutinizing the rapidly approaching man. Just as Xiao Lin encountered the assassins, they were already waiting there.

Before stepping onto the platform, he felt a distinct sense of oppression. Xiao Lin was somewhat helpless, but since he had come, he was prepared for this unnecessary battle. However, today was strange; as soon as his feet touched the ground, the three people before him seemed startled, retreating several steps almost to the edge of the forest. This contrasted with their usual first-strike approach.

Xiao Lin stood still, uncertain about the intentions of the three individuals. Stepping forward into the rain meant dryness, but he preferred to quietly wait in the rain. It was as if the three opposite him deliberately planned a silent standoff; Xiao Lin didn’t move, nor did they, standing in the rain as well.

The platform formed a peculiar circle, surrounded by water stains marking its distinctiveness. Xiao Lin noticed this and took a step forward, causing the three to step back. He advanced a few more steps, and they retreated further, disappearing into the woods. This game of advancement and retreat, Xiao Lin seemed to tire of it.

Behind the woods was where the assassin group resided; he had been there once before and remembered it vividly.

"I am looking for Liu Yi!" With these words, Xiao Lin was already in front of the three, succinctly stating his purpose, and they wordlessly disappeared into the shrubs, with Xiao Lin crouching and following them.

The previous meeting with Liu Yi was outside, but now the three stone benches had been soaked by the rain. Xiao Lin meticulously observed the building nearby; architecturally, it was rather simple and straightforward, unadorned except for its peculiar shape, essentially structured with windows and doors, lacking even a balcony. The exterior was a cement layer, appearing exceptionally rudimentary.

Speaking of peculiar shape, it’s merely stacked pyramid-like layers; the higher the level, the fewer rooms there are. It only stood four stories tall, occupying an area similar to his building on Black Street, albeit much more modern.

Xiao Lin was stopped outside by someone, while the other two entered the building, remaining silent, letting their actions speak for them. Without knowing these people could talk, you might mistake them for mutes.

The wait wasn’t long; soon someone came to speak, inviting Xiao Lin into the house he’d never before entered. It’s said outward appearances can be deceiving; the same logic applies to buildings. No one would have expected such a comfortably arranged and simply styled interior in a structure seemingly incomplete, yet it had everything it needed and even things you wouldn’t expect.

Xiao Lin was placed in an independent ’courtyard,’ an artificial pavilion resembling a miniature version of a Suzhou garden! Listening to the flowing water over the bridge, Xiao Lin secretly sweated at the luxurious first-floor setup, wondering what the upper floors might hold.

Do not underestimate this architectural style. From the building materials used, every stone is carefully chosen, indicating no small expense, reflective of the Dan Clan’s abundant wealth. After all, those holding leverage wouldn’t endure watching if they lacked competency. (To be continued.
