Unlike ordinary people who could only feel a blank, Chen Yun seemed to glimpse the color structure of light in that brief exposure, from blue to purple, and then to the transition area of ​​green and yellow. The edges of these colors appeared particularly clear under extreme brightness.

Followed by.

Loud noises followed one after another, but the deafening sound did not cause confusion in his extraordinary auditory system. Instead, it was decomposed and analyzed, and every fluctuation of the sound wave was clearly captured.

Chen Yun could feel the trajectory of sound waves vibrating in the air, as if a soundprint map was drawn in his ears rather than just noise.

He was even able to distinguish the different frequency components in the loud noise. Although they were mixed together, Chen Yun's brain seemed to automatically decode these sounds, identifying the unique acoustic characteristics of the stun bomb and the complex sound field formed by the reflection of the walls in the laboratory.

After a few seconds, the effect of the stun bomb gradually dissipated and the laboratory returned to peace.

Chen Yun stood there unharmed, with a satisfied smile on his face.

This decisive experiment not only verified his conjecture, but also gave him a deeper understanding of his own abilities.

He is not only able to withstand extreme physical damage.

He can also withstand attacks on his keen senses. No matter whether it is high-intensity light pollution or loud noises, he is not only unaffected, but can also remain motionless and see everything clearly in the face of huge movements.

"As expected, for extraordinary people, it is impossible for the shock bomb to become a special attack weapon."

"at least……"

"It's impossible for me."

Chen Yun murmured.

It sounds reasonable that stun bombs can be the nemesis of extraordinary people with extremely keen perception.

But for Chen Yun.

His strength is without loopholes or flaws.

Chapter 234 The storm is coming

April 28th.

Spring is in full swing, and the sun shines gently on the cobblestone streets of a remote town in Gaul.

It gives this small town, which is sleeping in the tranquility of time, a faint golden glow.

The town is far away from the hustle and bustle, surrounded by lush mountains and forests and winding rivers, as if it is a tranquil picture lost in a corner of the world.

Nick Horton, dressed simply, was lost in thought in a motel in a small town.

From the 21st, he left the bustling China and embarked on a pursuit journey across the ocean because of a fight.

He used the intricate network of relationships he had accumulated over the years in the turbulent criminal world, and pursued clues like a hound.

Nick Horton knew very well that tracking down a figure like "Black Crow" was no easy task. The other party was like a cunning fox and always left the least traces in the complex underground world.

However, years of immersion in the criminal world have endowed him with a keen intuition, enabling him to sniff out the unusual from the smallest details.

He contacted old acquaintances who were active in the shadows one by one, from some frequently contacted intelligence dealers to marginalized smugglers, and even some secret traders behind seemingly honest businessmen. Every clue, no matter how insignificant, was carefully recorded by him and pieced together into a complex picture.

Fortunately, this black crow is not difficult to find.

Otherwise, he would have to change the direction of his investigation and go to the place where the Lighthouse Country was doing the black-on-black business to investigate where the goods he ate came from.

That would be even more troublesome.

Unless it is necessary, Nick Horton doesn't want to go back to the Lighthouse Country easily, because the wanted order for him there is extremely high.

In this way, we went through several sleepless nights and overcame numerous difficulties and obstacles.

Finally, at the end of April.

After days of unremitting efforts, Nick Horton captured the trace of the mysterious broker known as "Black Crow" from the subtle information obtained from previous interrogations and his various connections overseas.

Thus, Nick Horton appeared in this remote and secluded Gallic town.

And from the information provided by a guy here, Nick Horton felt that he had basically figured out the location of the black crow.

At this moment, Nick Horton was sitting in a simple but clean room of the hotel.

Under the dim light, his figure seemed particularly focused.

The hand-drawn map spread out in front of him was like an intricately interwoven web. Every line and every dot was a trap he had carefully laid out in an attempt to capture the elusive "Black Crow" that followed him everywhere.

The map is marked with different colored handwriting to show rumors heard from local residents, information dug up from inconspicuous corners of newspapers, and details that seem insignificant but may actually contain important clues.

His fingers slowly slid across the marks on the map. Every time he arrived at a place, his mind quickly replayed every scene and every line of dialogue related to it, trying to extract more information from them.

Besides.

There is also some other information recorded on the map.

Including the recent well-known actions of the Shadow Blade Killer Organization, the conflict in the Golden Triangle area...

Of course, not much detail is recorded about this information.

Nick Horton is mainly investigating the intelligence of the middleman Black Crow.

His fingers tapped lightly on the table, and each touch was like a timer going off in his mind, reminding him of the preciousness of time.

After thinking for a long time, the fog in Nick Horton's heart gradually dissipated.

A clear idea began to take shape.

Based on the sporadic but crucial clues provided by the small town, Nick Horton carefully drew a small circle with a red marker on the map that was already covered with notes and lines.

To him, this inconspicuous mark is like the "X" on a treasure map, marking the end of his quest.

"It's... right here!"

He whispered, a hint of barely perceptible excitement in his voice.

Compared with those well-organized and secretive drug lords and killer organizations, the independent broker code-named "Black Crow" has a relatively small scale of operation and a more direct transaction method, which gives Nick a glimmer of hope in tracking.

One person may seem covert, but many of their actions simply don't have enough manpower to clean up the traces like those large organizations.

So, the truth was revealed.

Nick Horton narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the distance, and looked directly at the marked location.

The excitement flashing in his eyes was a sign that his long-term tracking and analysis were about to be verified.

At this moment, all the fatigue and uncertainty seemed to be dispelled by this sudden confidence.

He basically determined the hiding place of the mysterious broker "Black Crow".

Nick felt that he had finally grasped fate by the throat and could deal a decisive blow at any time.

However, this certainty also comes with caution.

Years of criminal career taught him that every detail could hide a trap, and every act of confidence could be a wrong path to failure.

Therefore, Nick began to carefully plan every next step, considering every possible variable to ensure that the operation was foolproof.

Take a deep breath.

Nick Horton, who had basically determined the location of Black Crow at this moment, called Bai Shi, who was still far away in China and had not yet set off.

........................

China, Shu City.

A city full of historical charm.

Bai Shi was in an antique shop filled with an old-fashioned atmosphere, his fingertips gently running over each antique.

Although he seems nonchalant on the surface, he actually has a lot of thoughts in his mind.

At this moment, a burst of urgent cell phone ringing broke the tranquility of the antique shop. The specially treated cell phone showed that the incoming call number was from far away overseas.

"I have almost determined the whereabouts of Black Crow. When can you spare some time to join me?"

Nick Horton asked directly and urgently.

Investigation is investigation, but it would be safer if two people take specific actions together.

Bai Shi was stunned for a moment, then calmed down and responded calmly: "You continue to watch and make sure to prepare a detailed action plan. I will have time to deal with it after May Day."

His words revealed an unquestionable determination, but also a well-thought-out arrangement.

Shiraishi really doesn't want to go abroad at all now.

there are many reasons.

The primary reason is that during the upcoming May Day holiday, he will have an important date with an old friend named Chen Yun.

Chen Yun’s intervention at the critical moment, especially the mysterious jade sword, made Bai Shi’s heart full of questions about this world.

Go out and play on May Day.

It was Jiang Anping who took the initiative and invited a few of them to join in.

Shiraishi was naturally invited as well.

He planned to talk to Chen Yun on May 1st about anything he wanted to say or ask.

Including his gratitude, his promise that he would not say anything nonsense, and his curiosity about the world of Chen Yun, the sword immortal.

In short, he had a lot to say, but now was not the time.

As for now, he still has a lot of things to do.

But despite the complexity of daily trivialities, he still decided to seize this opportunity to have an in-depth exchange with Chen Yun, regardless of whether the other party was willing to uncover the mystery.

Before that, he chose to remain silent to avoid unnecessary trouble. This is Bai Shi's caution and respect for the unknown.

The second reason is that he has a lot of things to do before May Day.

Shiraishi has indeed been very busy lately.

A series of complex affairs need to be dealt with urgently, and the core of these affairs revolve around the same core issue - the safety of Shu City.

This problem seems very big and it doesn't seem like something Shiraishi should consider at all.

But if you think about it carefully, you will know.

The arrival of one killer would mean that there might be more than one killer in the future, and the place where he retired might have lost its tranquility.

After dealing with the uninvited killer that day, Shiraishi did not let his guard down.

Instead, he became more aware of the fragility of a peaceful life.

Although the emerald jade sword is a rare help, it is by no means a long-term solution.

Shiraishi has never been a guy who relies on others.

Otherwise, he would have died a long time ago in his criminal career that started in the orphanage.

Although Chen Yun is very mysterious and powerful.

But nothing is better than relying on yourself.

So, after that, Shiraishi began his intense and orderly actions.

These days, he seemed to have returned to the state when he was planning sophisticated thefts, but this time the target was no longer priceless works of art, but the safety of himself and those around him.

In the morning, the sky was just beginning to turn pale.

Bai Shi began to travel through the streets and alleys of Shu City. On the surface, he was leisurely drinking tea and chatting with old friends in the teahouse, but in fact he was exchanging information without making a sound.

He used the network of relationships he had carefully built over the years to monitor every corner that might reveal any sign of trouble, from whispers on the streets to secret gatherings of businessmen and politicians.

In the afternoon, he would go to some antique shops in the south of the city, where he would regularly meet with several retired veterans.

On the surface, it is to appreciate antiques, but in fact it is to observe every abnormality in Shu City through these eyes that once walked in the shadows.

The conversations between them are often about one thing but have another meaning; a look or a gesture is enough to convey important information.

When night falls, Bai Shi will return to his mansion deep in the ancient city, where there is a secret room that hides his other world.

He carefully studied every clue he collected, analyzing possible sources of threats to develop a response plan. The map hanging on the wall was densely marked, and every point was a chess piece he had placed, or an area that needed special attention.

In addition, he also secretly contacted several reliable contacts to provide him with technical support or direct assistance to ensure that there would be no more shadows of assassins in Shu City.

Through this series of operations, Shiraishi not only strengthened the security of his own home, but also secretly protected the friends he made after he retired from the underworld.

He knew very well that true peace did not lie in seclusion from the world, but in the ability to provide a protective umbrella for those around him when the storm was about to come.

Although he couldn't do something as terrifying and outrageous as Chen Yun, who took the enemy's head from thousands of miles away.
