Chapter 1529: Chapter 1519: Capturing the Suspect

Jiang Cheng watched as Wang Hua fell into the trench again, took a few steps back, and when he had retreated a safe distance, he pressed the switch on the ring. The bomb Wang Hua was wearing exploded, blowing Wang Hua’s body to smithereens, scattering everywhere.

Jiang Cheng looked at the scattered remains of Wang Hua, unable to suppress a wave of nausea—it was the first time he had seen such a sight. He silently mourned Wang Hua for a few seconds, though Wang Hua had wanted to kill him, they had spent so much time together that there was still a bit of reluctance.

After resting, Jiang Cheng prepared to walk toward the hotel, but found he was unfamiliar with the roads, surprisingly enough, he got lost. It took Jiang Cheng a long time to finally find the highway.

After asking for directions back to the hotel, he saw Mole waiting anxiously at the door. As soon as Mole saw him, he happily ran over and hugged him: "Jiang Cheng! You’re back!"

Hmm, I’m back. Didn’t I say I would come back." Jiang Cheng patted Mole’s back.

Mole looked at Jiang Cheng, who seemed flawless, and asked: "Wang Hua? Did he do anything to you?"

Jiang Cheng sighed slightly: "Wang Hua is dead." "What? Dead? How could it be?" Mole couldn’t believe it.

"It’s true, because... I killed him." Jiang Cheng’s tone was calm. Mole’s eyes widened like saucers: "You? You killed him?"

Jiang Cheng nodded: "Yes, I killed him. If I didn’t kill him, he would have killed me." Ou Shu answered: "That’s right, otherwise I might never see you again."

Jiang Cheng and Mole returned to the hotel room: "He wanted to kill me a long time ago.

But he never had the chance, I started suspecting him a long time ago." "When did you start suspecting him?" Mole pursued further. Jiang Cheng took a sip of water: "A long time ago, so I secretly planted a mini-nuke on him."

Mole lightly hit Jiang Cheng: Why didn’t you tell me about such an important thing!" Jiang Cheng revealed a hint of helplessness: "If I told you, all my efforts would have been wasted."

Ever since he was imprisoned, I wore bomb-proof clothes." Jiang Cheng changed out of his dirty clothes and put on clean clothes. Ou Shu exclaimed repeatedly: "Wow, Jiang Cheng, you’re amazing!"

Jiang Cheng was slightly lost in thought. If the system hadn’t been there, I might have perished with him... Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng snapped back and saw Mole looking at him with admiration. Mole’s admiration for Jiang Cheng was obvious; his eyes glowed: "You’re truly amazing! I admire you so much!"

Jiang Cheng smiled slightly: "It’s not that I’m amazing, it’s that Wang Hua was just too dumb." Although he said this, Jiang Cheng still felt quite proud inside.

After reveling in his pride, Jiang Cheng and Mu Yu untied all the children, asking one young girl: "Little sister, who tied you up here?" The little girl looked around in terror, took a step closer to Jiang Cheng’s ear.

Just as she was about to speak, a menacing-looking man emerged: "You’ve come. Really took trouble to find us. But thinking you can stop our plan, you’re dreaming!" All the children shivered, shrinking towards the corner. Jiang Cheng and Mu Yu shielded the children "Your plan isn’t foolproof, since we’ve found our way here, we’re definitely capable of stopping it! Do you take pride in committing such heinous acts?" Mu Yu finally spoke: "As inhabitants of this same world, why make things difficult for others? Doesn’t your conscience hurt?"

"Hurt? Did your conscience hurt when you captured our compatriots? Did it hurt when you executed them?" The man’s tone grew heated.

Jiang Cheng’s temper couldn’t stand this, and he directly got angry: "Do you know what kind of things you’ve done? We just uphold justice; we haven’t done harmful deeds. You? Haven’t you attacked many of our compatriots? Though I haven’t joined the army, I have a passionate heart. They are innocent, these children are even more innocent, how dare you tie them up! They are still young; you were also born and raised by parents, don’t you know how hard it is for them? Imagine if you were the ones tied up here, think about how worried your parents are at home!"

Jiang Cheng really wanted to charge up and fight but rationality told him he couldn’t, he had to prioritize the greater cause. The always calm Mu Yu held back Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng nodded in acknowledgment.

The two moved the children to an open space, Jiang Cheng on the left, Mu Yu on the right, exchanging a glance. In a moment, Jiang Cheng executed a backflip behind the man, who, sensing the danger, tried to flee, but Mu Yu blocked his path too.

Tell me, why did you kidnap these children?" Mu Yu grabbed the man’s shoulder with one hand and leaned against the wall with the other. The man’s eyes shifted: "Soon, there will be a plan, you know that. Our boss is just afraid of you meddlers coming to disrupt it, with these kids as hostages, you wouldn’t dare harm them! And let me tell you, our headquarters is filled with kids, elderly, women; we use them as cannon fodder hostages! Hahaha."

Mu Yu’s anger also surged: "How can you be so despicable and shameless? Specializing in capturing those who can’t fight back, is it because you’re too cowardly or not strong enough? Afraid of losing against our troops?" The man chuckled "If we don’t use these despicable means how could we defend against you elites? Right? So in critical moments, tactics are a must!"

Saying this, the man, while the two were unguarded, grabbed a boy, viciously stating "If you want him dead, go ahead and catch me. I’m strapped with bombs, just one step closer and I’ll flatten this place, leaving no one alive. My death will be enough to take you few along! Hahahahaha." Then he revealed his clothes, indeed, covered in bombs, a slight mistake could trigger them.

Jiang Cheng and Mu Yu calmed down. Jiang Cheng tried persuading the man: "Uncle, you can’t just die like this; if you do, what about your children, your family, your wife, and your career?" "Child, family, wife, career, ha, joke, doing this work, I never planned to get out alive. And wasn’t my wife captured by you too? Child-

Two lives for one, career, bloody career!" The man’s emotions grew increasingly unstable, tightening his grip. The boy he grabbed turned blue, veins bulging, choking and gasping.

Jiang Cheng regretfully rubbed his forehead; it seemed his attempt not only failed to dissuade the man but provoked him further. Mu Yu also disappointedly patted Jiang Cheng’s shoulder "Why is it during critical times you always fail? Always trying to show off, only to mess things up every time." The man seized the opportunity of their inattentiveness to escape! By the time Mu Yu reacted "Jiang Cheng, the uncle escaped." "Impossible, my hand was still grabbing him... hand grabbing..."

Jiang Cheng instinctively moved his hand "Eh, where is he?" Mu Yu internally debated whether to curse. "Fear not an opponent like a god, but fear a teammate like a pig" Jiang Cheng got angry upon hearing this "You’re the damn pig, your whole family’s pigs, generations of pigs, had you not criticized me, would I argue over this? Would the uncle have escaped?" Mu Yu retorted "If you didn’t quibble, would such things happen? Do you know how crucial this person was to knowing their plans? By the way, where are the children?"
