Another Time Walker
A massive fire broke out at more than ten guesthouses and inns, shooting into the sky!
As the mountain wind blew, the fire continued to spread further afield.
What should have been a pleasant National Day holiday trip turned into a dangerous farce.
Even the sky was illuminated, as if a layer of sunset clouds had drifted out from the midnight curtain.
Countless tourists rushed out of the guesthouse to seek refuge, only to be caught in a shooting, and then they all fled in chaos.
The last two thugs hid in the crowd, holding Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen hostage as they hurried toward the parking lot with their heads down.
If Time Walker is lost, another can be bound; if a companion is lost, another can be found.
At this point, as long as they drive away from Laojun Mountain, everything will still be in time.
However, at the very moment of their escape, the gang leader suddenly turned around and looked back.
His gaze pierced through the chaotic crowd and landed on a masked boy who was also looking at him through the crowd.
The boy was surrounded by noisy, panicked tourists, while behind him raged a massive fire.
But the other person's gaze was not on all this chaos, but only on him.
The gang leader felt a chill run down his spine, suddenly having a bad feeling.
He knew he had been targeted, and that the other party would not let the matter rest until they killed him tonight.
The leader recalled the scene of Old Liu being swiftly and cleanly shot dead, and felt a chill run down his spine.
If it weren't for Hu Xiaoniu standing between him and the other party, he would probably be the one who died back then.
"Dongzi, if we don't kill this kid today, we definitely won't be able to leave," the leader said. "When we get to the parking lot, watch my eyes."
As he spoke, the leader, dressed in a black trench coat, pulled out a gun and fired two shots, one into the abdomen of Hu Xiaoniu and the other into Zhang Tianzhen, who then slowly fell to the ground.
"Big brother, what are you doing?" Dongzi asked in surprise.
"That kid might know these two students. Let's see if they can help buy us some time. Besides, if we want to ambush them, we can't let them drag us down with us," the leader said, then left Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen behind and disappeared into the parking lot.
Hundreds of buses are parked here, and those vehicles serve as natural cover.
It's like a maze that obscures the view.
Qing Chen quietly approached Hu Xiaoniu's side. Once he confirmed that the other person was still breathing, he immediately took out Hu Xiaoniu's phone and dialed 120.
There is a clinic in the scenic area. The doctors and nurses there probably haven't seen gunshot wounds before, but Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen were shot in the gastrointestinal area, not in vital organs.
As long as the medical staff arrive in time, there shouldn't be any problem saving his life.
He said to Hu Xiaoniu, who was lying on the ground, "I've made a call, the paramedics will be here soon. I'll stay here with you. Don't worry, it's not a fatal injury, you'll be fine."
Suddenly, Hu Xiaoniu struggled to his feet and grabbed Qing Chen's sleeve. His lips were pale, and his voice trembled as he said, "I know you're very capable, please help me kill those two thugs!"
Qing Chen glanced at the maze-like parking lot.
Before he could say anything, Hu Xiaoniu suddenly said, "You're Liu Dezhu's man, right? Please help us get revenge. Afterwards, I'll pay Liu Dezhu double the gold bars, just like last time! Those two heroes of Kunlun can't have died in vain! Don't worry about us!"
Qing Chen remained silent for a long time. He didn't know what had happened at that moment to make Hu Xiaoniu so excited that he would risk his life to help him take revenge.
He whispered, "Lie here and don't move. Cover your wounds. Don't worry, they will die today."
After saying that, he glanced at the maze-like parking lot and stepped inside.
This was an extremely dangerous moment, because he knew very well that the criminals were waiting for him there.
Treat the maze as a battlefield; whoever enters the maze first has an absolute advantage: vision, terrain, and timing.
It seems that every element of the battle is extremely disadvantageous to Qing Chen.
But Qing Chen didn't seem to care about the gold bars this time; he just wanted to kill someone tonight.
After a moment's thought, he used both his hands and feet to climb onto the roof of a bus.
Despite the thin sheet metal roof, he stepped on it without making a sound.
Just as he moved to the other edge of the roof, he was shocked to see a thug standing frozen in place below.
The other party was like someone in sticky glue, making it extremely difficult to even raise the gun muzzle ten centimeters higher.
Qing Chen suddenly looked to the other side.
There, a person wearing a hoodie and a black face mask stood in the shadows.
The other person stretched out their arm and opened their palm towards the thug on the ground.
It was as if he controlled a person's fate with just one hand.
Time Walker!
And he's a legendary superhuman!
Qing Chen pondered, "Is this ability related to gravity?"
The hooded Time Walker in the darkness tilted his head eastward. "This one was sold off, and another one ran away, abandoning him. I'm handing him over to you."
It was a woman's voice coming from behind the mask.
Qing Chen was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly understood:
The two thugs, hiding behind the car, were probably planning to ambush him, but they were instead firmly controlled by this unknown Time Walker.
Because the other party's abilities were too bizarre, the gang leader abandoned his men and ran away.
Qing Chen sized up the other person, who was about 176cm tall with a slender and well-proportioned figure, but his face was obscured by the darkness.
At first, he noticed that the other person was very tall, and the loose hoodie concealed his figure, so Qing Chen subconsciously assumed that the other person was a man.
Unexpectedly, it was a girl, and her voice sounded very young.
"What are you standing there for? If you stand there any longer, they'll run away," the mysterious girl said.
The roar of engines could be heard in the distance. Qing Chen could see that the van he had seen before had started up. The gang leader sat in the driver's seat and stepped on the gas, speeding to the end and heading towards the winding mountain road outside the scenic area.
Without further thought, Qing Chen leaped off the roof of the bus, snatched the assailant's pistol, and then ran off at full speed.
The girl in the darkness kept watching Qing Chen leave. When she noticed that Qing Chen was barefoot, she was stunned. His feet were covered in blood.
But the boy seemed to feel no pain at all.
She slowly stepped out of the shadows and stood beside the thug, quietly watching him slowly kneel down on the concrete ground.
The next second, her open palms suddenly closed.
The thug kneeling on the ground immediately screamed in agony as his legs slammed into the pavement, the immense pressure causing his knees to crack with a sound.
"This is some punishment for those who died tonight," the girl said softly, then put her hands in her hoodie pockets and walked back into the shadows.
All that remained in the parking lot was the thug with shattered knees and his groans.
The black van was driving down the winding mountain road. Because there were too many U-turns and the angles of the curves were too narrow, the thugs couldn't accelerate at all.
Gunshots rang out from behind the car, filling the thugs with fear. The boy was an excellent marksman, able to accurately hit the car even while it was moving at high speed.
However, the other party probably did not expect that, in order to match the Glock 34 pistol with the silencer, they specifically chose subsonic bullets to reduce the sound of gunfire.
This type of bullet has no advantages other than being used with a silencer, and its effective range is less than 20 meters even after the silencer is installed.
It can only be used for ultra-close-range assassination shooting!
At that moment, the criminals were even somewhat Qing Xing that they were using subsonic bullets, otherwise they might already be dead!
The gunfire gradually subsided; the boy seemed to have run out of bullets and could only throw away the weapon.
But Qing Chen did not stop.
In the rearview mirror, the thug saw the masked boy on the road, who remained like a lone wolf, relentlessly biting at his back, as if trying to bite him to death.
