With a sharp crack, the man holding the gun froze as his neck snapped, and his entire body instantly lost its support.
All of this happened extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, the slender figure had just gripped the knife hilt, and the man with the cigarette was taking a step towards He Ao when the man with the gun was already dead.
But He Ao's movements did not stop. His right hand moved down and lifted the gunman's right hand, which was still tightly gripping the pistol.
At the same time, he gripped the gunman's left shoulder with his left hand, turned his body toward the man with the cigarette and the thin figure behind him.
His index finger slipped through the trigger guard, rested on the stiff right index finger of the gun-wielding man, and slowly pulled the trigger.
boom--
The blazing bullet pierced the thin figure's forehead and shattered the back of his head.
"what!!!"
The instant the gunshot rang out, the man with the cigarette roared, and his body suddenly swelled up, like an angry bull.
He moved quickly, and in an instant, he punched He Ao in the face.
He Ao shifted his body to the side and released the gunman.
The human corpse, having escaped the attack of the man with the cigarette, landed beside the small, thin figure who was falling backward with wide eyes.
Then, the thin figure gripped the silver dagger that was originally meant to stab He Ao tightly, pulled it out, raised it sharply, and threw it forward.
The sharp blade pierced the neck of the angry man with a cigarette in his mouth, and bright red blood splattered out in the rain.
He Ao didn't look at the man with the cigarette, but instead looked at a badge reflecting a faint light inside the coat of the thin figure beside him—a silver wolf head badge.
He withdrew his gaze, deactivated his super memory, and slowly walked past the man, continuing toward the still-burning car.
Puff—puff—puff—
That was the sound of three bodies falling to the ground one after another in the rain.
The man with the gun is probably a 'mercenary', the man with the cigarette is 'Bull', and the skinny guy is probably 'Reconciler'. All three are E-rank, ranged, support, and melee, forming a complete three-person squad. If a fight broke out, some ordinary D-ranks might not be able to defeat them.
He walked forward step by step, the stinging pain in his body becoming more pronounced after the strenuous exercise, which tore apart some of his charred muscles and skin.
However, the dark rain brought a bit of coolness, soothing the burning sensation of the burns.
He staggered to the car, reached into the flames on the passenger side, and quickly found a scorching hot metal box.
He endured the pain, gripped the handle of the box, and pulled it out with force.
The cold raindrops hit the box, making a hissing sound and rising wisps of white mist.
A black sedan stopped in front of He Ao.
The car door opened, and a silver-haired elderly man in a neat suit slowly stepped out.
"Master Wei'an"
The old man opened the back door of the car and reached out to take the box from He Ao's hand.
"Need not."
He Ao waved his hand, responded in a hoarse voice, and reached out to press a button on the inside of the door.
A black mechanical arm emerged from behind the car seat and took the still-warm metal box from his hand.
Then he slowly sat down in the soft leather seat in the back.
As the car door closed softly, the elderly man, now seated in the passenger seat, asked in a low voice, "Shall we go to your private doctor's?"
"No, go home and ask Mr. Ike to come over."
He Ao looked at the old man's back and said in a hoarse voice.
This old man is Vian's butler, Danny, or more precisely, Danny Lowe, Danny being Vian's nickname for him.
After Wei An's parents passed away, he basically took care of Wei An's daily life and was the person Wei An trusted the most.
Vian's car is equipped with a signal transmitter, and the receiver is controlled by Danny. If Vian encounters any accident, Danny can come to his rescue immediately.
A wave of intense fatigue washed over me.
He Ao leaned back in his seat and slowly closed his eyes.
The black sedan drove into the rain-soaked night sky.
Shortly after the car left, a figure wearing a tattered jacket and ripped brown trousers emerged from the rain.
He walked to the three dead men, knelt down, grasped the hilt of the silver knife with his large hand, and then slowly pulled the knife out.
Rainwater dampened his long hair, flowing down his face with prominent cheekbones.
"Who is there?"
In the dim light of the streetlights, a man dressed in an FBI agent's uniform emerged, holding a gun, and approached step by step the figure crouching next to the corpse, wearing a tattered jacket.
The figure slowly turned its head.
His eyes were wide open, filled with bloodshot veins. The muscles in his cheeks pulled at his lips, revealing neat, white teeth and bright red gums.
"who are you?"
The detective swallowed hard, staring blankly at the figure.
puff--
The figure in the neat uniform slowly fell to the ground.
The torn cuffs of brown trousers passed by the fallen body, and bright red blood flowed into the low sewer drain along with the clear rainwater.
He tiptoed away, taking small, hopping steps, as if dancing in the rain.
It rained harder and harder.

The black sedan slowly came to a stop in a secluded villa area.
He Ao opened his eyes.
A medical team dressed in pure white was already waiting in front of the villa.
Danny, the old butler, slowly got out of the car, opened the door, and asked softly.
“Master Vian, shall we inform Mr. Philip and the rest of the board?”
"No, don't tell anyone."
He Ao shook his head and struggled to get out of the car. "Send someone to stage the scene, pretend I'm 'dead'."

"father!"
A little girl with a ponytail stood on the sofa, waving her hands at her father.
"Eh!"
Jack laughed and lifted the girl up, then held her in his arms and gently rubbed his daughter's little face.
"came back?"
His wife, Aisha, came out of the kitchen with a plate of seared steak and placed it on the table, smiling at her husband. "How did the interview go today?"
"not bad."
Jack placed his daughter on a high stool next to the dining table and smiled as he helped his wife prepare the tableware. "The factory supervisor really appreciates me. I'll get my work badge today, go for training tomorrow, and be able to start working in a couple of days."
"I knew you could do it!"
Elsa leaned over and kissed Jack on the cheek.
"Hahaha," Jack laughed, reaching out to hug his wife. "What about you over there?"
“Our daughter is here!” Aisha slapped her husband’s hand away, sat down at the dining table, and laughed, “Oh, the hotel said I have a good temperament and could work as a front desk staff member.”
"Today is a good day."
Jack sat next to his wife.
It took the two of them more than a month to finally settle down in the city and end their odd jobs.
"But I only realized how powerful the Nolanca Group is in Kaya City after I got here."
As Aisha cut her steak, she exclaimed, "Nolanca Machinery Factory, Nolanca Garden Hotel, Nolanca Bank, Nolanca Fast Food Restaurant, Nolanca Supermarket... Nolanca Group's properties are everywhere."
“After all, Kaya City isn’t as prosperous as Dawn City, while Nolanca is one of the top fifty conglomerates in the Federation,” Jack remarked. “This city practically belongs to this one conglomerate.”
“My new colleague said,” Elsa mumbled, stuffing a piece of steak into her mouth.
“In Kaya City, 25% of the population is directly or indirectly employed by the Nolanca Group, and 40% of the population, although not employed by the Nolanca Group, rely on the Nolanca Group’s related industries for their livelihood. From birth to death, the people of Kaya City cannot live without the Nolanca Group, and they have become accustomed to it.”
She paused for a moment, then added, "But the salaries at Nolanca Group are really low."
"It's alright, prices here aren't as high as in Dawn City."
Jack smiled and shook his head. He reached out and patted his daughter's head as she twirled noodles with a fork. "We've settled everything. Now we need to find a new kindergarten for Annie."

He felt a slight dizziness. He slowly opened his eyes and rubbed his temples.
A simple, plain gray-white wall came into his view.
He slowly lifted the silk goose-patterned covering him.
She sat up in bed, covered by a fleece quilt.
The dizziness gradually subsided.
He slowly raised his hand and paused in mid-air. The water dispenser next to him automatically lit up, and hot water, heated to the required temperature, fell into the gray-white cup below the dispenser.
A frisbee with silent rotors carried the glass of water to He Ao and stopped in front of him, the glass landing right in his hand.
All of this happened in just a few seconds; almost as soon as He Ao raised his hand, the water glass was in his grasp.
