Yuguang University, a newly established prestigious university in Shangjing, differs from traditional ones. It primarily admits students from humble backgrounds, focusing solely on scores; even the wealthiest cannot enroll without meeting the academic requirements.
Big Dog's daughter is enrolled at Yuguang University.
Li Chonglou, along with Ah Dong and Ah Hai, arrived near the university early. Ah Dong had already infiltrated to find their target, while Li Chonglou and Ah Hai were providing backup.
However, this was merely a formality. Under the divine power of Heavenly Eye's 透视 (tòushì - clairvoyance/x-ray vision), Li Chonglou had long since pinpointed the target and was continuously observing the surroundings.
"Strange, my Heavenly Eye's 透视 divine power seems to have no energy consumption."
Seated by the entrance of a shop, Li Chonglou's gaze occasionally swept towards the university. Over the past few days, he had noticed that his Heavenly Eye divine power felt different from before.
Old An speculated, "Could it be related to inner energy?"
"Besides that, there doesn't seem to be any other possibility."
Li Chonglou nodded. Although he didn't understand the underlying reason, it was a good thing. Previously, he would only activate it when necessary. Now, even keeping it on continuously felt like it didn't consume any energy.
Just then, a suspicious figure suddenly appeared in his sight.
It was a middle-aged man, conspicuous in the crowd of university students, and he didn't look like a teacher.
University campuses occasionally had outsiders, so the students paid little attention to the man.
"Tell Ah Dong to come back."
There was no need to look further; Li Chonglou already had his answer.
"Now?"
Ah Hai was puzzled. Ah Dong had said he would contact them if he found anything. Were they supposed to return before he had even found the person?
"Yes, I need to go out for something. Wait for me here after he returns."
With that, Li Chonglou walked towards the university.
The gatekeeper still ignored him, merely glancing. Li Chonglou smoothly entered Yuguang College.
Who would have thought someone would be audacious enough to cause trouble at a university? In its over ten years of existence, Yuguang College had never experienced a campus security incident caused by an outsider. The security guards here were more involved in managing the students.
With the divine power of Heavenly Eye's 透视, Li Chonglou located the target in a restroom within ten minutes.
They entered the restroom one after another. There was no one else inside. The man went into a stall and took out several parts to assemble.
This fellow had actually brought a handgun inside!
He even knew how to assemble mechanical devices, clearly not an ordinary assassin.
Bang bang bang.
The man was startled by the sudden knocking on the door just as he was halfway through assembling.
"Someone's here!"
The man yelled impatiently, but the knocking didn't stop.
To avoid attracting attention, the man had to abandon his assembly for now, muttering, "I knew no one would care about this place, so why didn't I just leave it disassembled?"
This was his first time receiving such a mission. In his previous experience, China was the most stringent regarding mechanics. He had disassembled the firearm as a precaution, never expecting that no one would pay attention from his entry until now.
As the door was pulled open, the man intended to curse a few times to display his street tough persona, but a large fist landed squarely on his face.
With a cry of pain, the man sat down on the toilet in a heap.
He was stunned and hadn't even seen who had attacked him before another solid punch landed.
His vision swam with stars. When his sight returned to normal, a short knife was already at his throat.
Li Chonglou had taken this during his journey; the female student whose package it was, was currently crying to her mentor.
"Who sent you."
Li Chonglou's voice was colder than December ice. The man looked at the face filled with weathered stories and instinctively swallowed.
"Brother, did you misunderstand something..."
Before he could utter another word, the short knife pierced a small hole in his thigh. Blood immediately gurgled out, soon soaking his pants red.
A ruthless person!
The man's face turned pale abruptly. He stopped resisting.
"Brother, please be merciful. I only took the job online; I don't know who the employer is."
"Which website?"
"Green Net."
Fine, he thought it might be a dark web. However, the owner of the dark web was probably being chased by someone on the other side of the ocean by now, perhaps even dead.
The man tried to argue, but Li Chonglou swiftly ended him with a decisive move.
Clutching his neck with unresigned disbelief, the man stared at Li Chonglou with a look of astonishment, as if asking why he was being killed.
"You dare sneak into a university, and you even bring a firearm. Do you think I don't know what you're trying to do?"
Li Chonglou chuckled, tidied up the scene simply, and quietly left.
If it were someone from within the country, they would at most bring a sharp weapon, kill, and flee. This guy brought a gun directly, clearly indicating he had other tasks besides killing Big Dog's daughter.
Given the current situation in Shangjing, it wasn't hard to guess that he was likely connected to foreign forces, primarily aiming to sow panic.
China is a populous nation, and there's an old saying: water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. If the common people fall into negative emotions, they can easily be exploited.
No matter how powerful the peak strength is, without the foundation of the populace, what is the use of guarding China?
Foreign forces' schemes have always been like this. However, peak strength does have its uses; at least, with them around, those clowns dare not come in person to cause trouble. They prefer to bribe domestic individuals, especially those who have lived abroad for a long time but still possess Chinese identity.
Therefore, this man was not worth Li Chonglou's pity.
Returning to the shop entrance, Ah Dong and the other were already waiting.
"Brother Hua?"
Their confused gazes fell upon him, but Li Chonglou calmly said, "No need to keep watch anymore. My informant has confirmed that this matter is related to Yu Yan."
"Your informant?"
Li Chonglou smiled faintly, "What, you thought I've lived to this age for nothing?"
The two exchanged glances and said no more.
"And Big Dog's daughter?"
"Let's go apprehend the person first. I've already arranged for people to handle this place."
Alright, the two were truly speechless this time, and their respect for Li Chonglou grew even deeper.
After their first mission, they had already been thoroughly convinced of Li Chonglou's capabilities. Seeing that he had his own network now naturally made them trust him even more.
Subsequently, their attention shifted to Yu Yan.
A woman who appeared harmless and even like a victim, yet harbored such malice and cunning!
Li Chonglou acted decisively, immediately contacting Dabao to proceed.
By the time they arrived, Yu Yan had already been apprehended by Dabao.
Upon seeing Li Chonglou again, she put on a pitiable act.
"Brother Hua, what are you doing? Did Zhiwei say something to you again?"
As soon as she spoke, Li Chonglou slapped her directly.
