Chuanben sighed, "Alright, where are you? I'll come see you."
Lan Yuxi frowned slightly, "Let me catch the person first, then I'll come see you. I can give you a check-up then."
Chuanben smiled upon hearing this, "Really? That's great! Who are you trying to catch? I'll help you catch them, and you can come here for tea and news."
"I can't afford your help. Just report me and that's it." Lan Yuxi hung up before he could say anything else.
Lan Musi curiously asked, "Who is that? You look so impatient."
"The Second Prince of Country R, a former patient of mine. He's quite clingy. If I talk to him nicely, he'll cling even more."
Seeing Nan Yi's ears twitching, Lan Yuxi gave him an annoyed kick.
"Don't report to Nan Xiao, understand!"
Nan Yi's mouth twitched, "Mistress, I'm not the type of person to tattle."
"You're not the type to tattle, but you're a repeater!"
"Pfft—" Lan Musi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Even Ying's lips involuntarily twitched.
The car quickly approached the vicinity of the locked location. Lan Yuxi put on her earpiece and said in a deep voice, "Are you all in position... Is the target still in the villa... How many people are in the villa..."
Lan Yuxi's fingers flew across the keyboard, disabling all the surveillance cameras in the villa within thirty seconds.
"Two people at nine, three, six, and twelve o'clock positions, Team One, move in!"
With Lan Yuxi's command, more than a dozen figures leaped over the courtyard wall.
Lan Yuxi watched the computer screen. After the inside was cleared, she said in a deep voice, "Once the main gate is opened, Team Two moves in! Watch out for the vantage points within the villa. Someone like him wouldn't be without snipers... Bang—"
Lan Yuxi frowned slightly upon hearing the gunshot, slid the screen, and said coldly, "Sniper at three o'clock on the terrace... and two o'clock on the fifth floor... Bang—Bang—"
After two gunshots, Lan Yuxi's lips curved slightly, "Beautiful! Ying, send in a few more little bees."
"Yes!"
Lan Yuxi stared at the screen for a moment and said coldly, "The target is in the basement, Team Three moves in! Team Four surrounds the villa, don't let anyone escape!"
"Bang bang bang..." As soon as Lan Yuxi finished speaking, intense gunfire erupted from the villa.
Ying's eyes gleamed with bloodlust, "Mistress Xi, the gunfire indicates we've encountered tough opponents!"
Lan Yuxi raised her hand and placed it on his shoulder, "Behave yourself. Don't get the urge to charge in just because you see this scene."
The bloodlust in Ying's eyes gradually faded.
Lan Yuxi pointed at a moving red dot, "See? There's a tunnel in this villa. Although we don't know where the exit is, we can follow his movements and pursue him. We must catch him at the exit."
"What about the people in the villa?"
Lan Yuxi extended her fair hand, raised three fingers, and smilingly counted down, "Three, two, one... beep beep..."
As she uttered the word "one," the sound of police sirens came from afar.
Lan Yuxi pressed her earpiece and said coldly, "Withdraw!"
The gunfire in the villa gradually subsided, and soon Team Four disappeared.
Lan Yuxi took out an iPhone, planned the route, and handed it to the driver, "Let's go."
"Yes!"
Less than a kilometer after the car drove off, a loud "boom" sounded from behind.
Lan Musi instantly broke out in a cold sweat. If he had been in command, he would have ordered them to chase through the tunnel. Fortunately, he hadn't spoken up earlier.
Thirty minutes later, the car arrived at a busy area. Lan Yuxi said in a deep voice, "We should be here. Change to motorcycles."
The group got out of the car, and soon more than a dozen motorcycles arrived. Lan Yuxi got on a motorcycle, pointed in a direction, and they sped off.
Soon, the red dot stopped moving. Lan Yuxi observed the surrounding environment and signaled everyone to drive their motorcycles into the alley behind the bar. Then, she led them to a manhole.
Lan Musi, fearing for his sister's safety, pulled her behind him.
Lan Yuxi smiled helplessly, "It's okay. He has no more than three people with him."
Lan Musi said sternly, "Still not acceptable!"
Lan Yuxi gestured for silence, "Let's hide first and act after they've all come up."
More than a dozen people quickly hid themselves.
A minute later, the manhole cover was slightly ajar, and a bald head emerged.
The man looked around vigilantly for a moment. Seeing no abnormality, he climbed out, grasping the edge of the manhole. Then, a tall and thin man crawled out. They stood back to back, scanning the surroundings again. Only then did the bald man crouch down and pull out a man in his fifties.
Lan Yuxi, hidden in the shadows, frowned slightly. This person was completely different from the caregiver she had seen before. Although he appeared to be a mild-mannered middle-aged man, the murderous aura emanating from him betrayed him.
Lan Yuxi raised her hand slightly, and dozens of golden needles shot out instantly.
Ling Qiankun grabbed the bald man and used him as a shield, while the tall, thin man fell to the ground.
Ling Qiankun's sinister gaze fell on Lan Yuxi's location, and he drew his pistol, pulling the trigger.
"Bang—Bang—" After two crisp gunshots, Ling Qiankun was shot in the wrist and the head.
Lan Yuxi frowned and looked at the bar's terrace, where a tall figure was playfully giving her a salute with two fingers.
"Scram!" Lan Yuxi cursed with her lips, then quickly walked to Ling Qiankun's body, wiped some blood with a tissue, and put it into a sealed bag. She then said to Ying, "Take the two alive ones away. Leave this one for Chuanben to deal with."
"Yes!" Ying raised his hand and signaled two subordinates, who dragged away the bald man and the tall, thin man.
After they left, Lan Yuxi looked at Chuanmu, who was walking over with a swagger, "How did you find me?"
"This is my territory, so it wasn't hard to find you," Chuanmu said, tucking his hands into his pockets and smiling with his alluring eyes. "You saved my life, and I saved yours. We're even now. From now on, I'm no longer your patient. You can be my girlfriend, right?"
Lan Yuxi scoffed, "Save me? I needed you to save me? You ruined my big plan. I haven't settled the score with you yet!"
Chuanmu sheepishly touched his nose, "Huh? No way? If it weren't for my shot, he would have hit you."
Lan Yuxi said sternly, "Is your hearing bad, or your eyesight? If you hadn't fired that shot, he would have only been shot in the wrist. I wanted him alive!"
"...It's over. Good intentions lead to bad results."
"You killed him, so you deal with it. I have to go."
Chuanmu was slightly taken aback, "You're leaving already? You just got here."
Lan Yuxi glanced at him, "I still have things to handle. You clean up here, consider it repaying the favor from years ago."
