The three of them stepped out of the iron gate of the research institute compound and strolled slowly along the tree-lined path.
Chen Zheng looked up at the sky.
The formal medical examination and data analysis won't start until tomorrow, so let's go back to the guesthouse for now.
Besides, Li Yue and the keyboard have been with him since morning, and her stomach is already empty.
We need to find a place to have lunch first.
However, Li Yue was quite excited at the moment, and didn't seem to be very hungry. She was waving her arms and legs as she walked down the street.
She mimicked Xu Jiaming's actions from the lab earlier, pinching the non-existent glasses frame with her fingers and pushing it forcefully against the bridge of her nose.
"Instructor Chen, what are your thoughts on our current plan?"
After learning this sentence, Li Yue couldn't hold back anymore and burst into laughter, clutching her stomach.
"Wow! That felt so good! That was so satisfying!"
"Instructor, you didn't see that pretty boy's expression later; his face turned green!"
Li Yue laughed and muttered to herself, feeling extremely comfortable.
With his hands in his pockets, he glanced at Li Yue.
"Don't make a fuss. When has the instructor ever shown any mercy to his opponent?"
After speaking, Keyboard stopped and turned to stare intently at Chen Zheng's profile.
"Instructor, is there an internet cafe nearby?"
"My accounts are almost out of stamina. I have to finish the Abyss today. If I don't clear my daily quests soon, the losses will be incalculable."
Chen Zheng kept his eyes fixed ahead, completely ignoring her.
The keyboard driver was so anxious that he kept stamping his feet and hurried to catch up.
The three of them turned into an old street at the intersection.
The street wasn't wide, and both sides were crowded with small restaurants with smoke rising from their windows, interspersed with a few shops selling hardware and general merchandise, all bustling with noise.
As soon as Li Yue stepped onto the street, she began to look at the shops on both sides.
As she passed a stall with a sign for military work safety supplies, her eyes were immediately drawn to an oversized camouflage canvas backpack that was prominently displayed.
That backpack looked sturdy, with many large expansion pockets hanging on the outside, its capacity was astonishing, it was simply the dream bag of any backpack enthusiast.
Chen Zheng reacted quickly, grabbing Li Yue by the back of the neck and pulling her back.
"Stop looking. If you keep stuffing things into that bag, I'll have to rent a crane for you next time we go off-roading."
Li Yue was forced to move forward, looking back every few steps.
After taking only a couple of steps, the keyboard suddenly stopped in place again.
She raised her arm high, pointing her finger at a milk tea shop not far ahead, her expression serious.
"Instructor, I didn't eat anything this morning, and my blood sugar is dropping rapidly. I urgently need a large dose of sugar to maintain my vital signs!"
Chen Zheng's lips twitched twice, then he sighed helplessly and reached for his phone.
Two minutes later, Li Yue and Jianpan each held a super-sized cup of grass jelly filled with sugar and toppings.
Chen Zheng still held that stainless steel thermos.
The three of them mingled in the bustling crowd, strolling slowly along the street with their drinks.
Suddenly, a commotion arose from the crowd several dozen meters ahead.
"Stop thief! Someone's snatching my bag!"
Chen Zheng and the other two looked up at the same time, following the sound.
About fifty or sixty meters directly in front of us on the street, a gaunt man carrying a black women's handbag was running at full speed.
The skinny man ran extremely fast, sprinting and shoving aside pedestrians blocking his path with his shoulder.
About ten meters behind, a middle-aged woman was chasing after them, panting and shouting as she went.
The reactions of passersby were varied.
Some people felt it was none of their business and stood on the curb, craning their necks to watch the spectacle.
Several quick-handed young people immediately pulled out their phones, turned on their cameras, and started filming.
The skinny man watched as the crowd in front of him automatically parted to make way, and he was about to rush out of a small intersection when a smug grin spread across his face.
Chen Zheng's eyes narrowed, his muscles tensed, and he was just about to exert force and rush out.
But another figure got there first.
A figure in military green suddenly burst out from the crowd gathered in front of a small supermarket on the right side of the street.
In less than three seconds.
The figure then overtook the fleeing thief with overwhelming force.
He reached out with his right hand and grabbed the back of the other person's coat collar.
At the same time, he thrust his left foot forward and hooked it tightly around the thief's ankle.
The thief was sprinting at full speed when his lower body was suddenly locked completely, and his upper body was pulled backward by a brute force.
He lost all balance and his body was lifted into the air.
boom!
The thief was knocked onto the hard road surface.
The handbag slipped from her hand and flew more than two meters away.
The thief was thrown around in a daze, his nose bleeding profusely, but his inherent ferocity remained. He twisted and struggled violently, trying to get up.
The person on top of him gave him absolutely no chance.
He pushed his right knee down, firmly pressing it against the center of his back.
He grabbed the thief's right arm with his left hand and pulled and bent it backward.
His arm was twisted behind his back, the joint was locked, and he could not move an inch. He could only let out a miserable scream.
Attack, capture, suppress.
The entire set of movements was fluid and seamless, performed in one go.
Violent, yet incredibly beautiful.
The passersby who were initially trying to avoid the camera were completely dumbfounded.
After a full two seconds of stunned silence, enthusiastic applause and cheers erupted from the street.
"Holy crap! This girl's trained!"
"That's so damn cool! That skill is absolutely unbeatable!"
Chen Zheng carried a thermos and slowly approached.
Li Yue followed behind with the keyboard.
The three of them had just approached.
The keyboard slipped, and the full-sugar milk tea in my hand trembled, almost spilling all over my shoes.
"Sister Anran?!"
Li Yue finally saw the profile of the person pressing down on the thief, and her mouth immediately opened wide.
The person who had pinned the thief down visibly stiffened upon hearing that familiar gasp.
Turn your head around.
A hint of murderous intent lingered on her pretty face.
It was Mulan's captain.
safely.
Eyes facing each other.
An Ran could clearly see Chen Zheng standing a few meters away, as well as Li Yue standing next to him with her mouth agape and the keyboard.
My brain completely shut down.
He remained frozen in place, kneeling on one knee and pinning the thief down.
Chen Zheng stood there, a half-smile playing on his lips, his gaze calmly fixed on An Ran on the ground.
The atmosphere became subtle at that moment.
After a few seconds of eye contact.
An Ran was the first to be unable to bear the intensely oppressive gaze, so she turned her head away and pretended to look into the distance.
The tips of those ears also instantly became congested with blood at that moment.
Her chest heaved slightly, and she bit her lower lip hard, trying to hide her extreme panic with a fierce tone.
"What are you looking at? Come and help!"
Chen Zheng sighed as he looked at An Ran's fierce yet flushed face and her arrogant demeanor, which only served to conceal her true nature. He then walked over to her side.
Why would someone who should have been leading a team in the Southwest Military Region suddenly appear in the old streets of Beijing, thousands of miles away?
I feel like there's no need to ask anymore.
