Hunter of Mysterious Creature

Chapter 716 22: Lin Lun

...

Meanwhile, in the office of the chairman of the Liusu Revival Pollution Control Company.

Lin Lun sat expressionless in the boss's chair, holding a steaming cup of coffee, listening to the secretary's report.

"The people from Hidden Dragon Hall... have all been killed." The secretary stood in the shadows, the light seeping through the curtain gap landed two inches before his shoe tips, like a line drawn between him and Lin Lun.

"Hmm." Lin Lun nodded, taking a small sip of coffee.

"There's news from the Public Security Bureau saying they've received orders from the higher-ups to clean up the scene... And, moreover..."

"Moreover what?"

"Moreover, their superiors specifically instructed them not to intervene in anything happening in the district today." The secretary said, "Boss, it seems like... they're targeting us."

"If they're not targeting us, who else could it be?" Lin Lun retorted with a faint smile.

"Could that thing have... been exposed?" A bead of sweat rolled down the side of the secretary's face, dripping down, instantly absorbed by the carpeted floor.

"It's bound to be exposed sooner or later." Lin Lun said, "You should be prepared for this."

"I... I know... it's just..." The secretary hesitated, "What should we do now? According to the information from the eyes outside, it seems that Sheriff is heading this way."

"Sheriff? You still think that person is just a sheriff?" Lin Lun put down the coffee cup, lifting his head to sneer at his secretary.

"Ah..."

"Hidden Dragon Hall sent thirty-five people, thirty-five to one... even if those thirty-five people were useless, even if the other side had a gun, wouldn't Hidden Dragon Hall have guns too? All thirty-five people were taken down... you still think that person's just a sheriff?"

"Could it be?"

"They sent a Hunter over, a Mysterious Creature Hunter." Lin Lun stood up, walked to the window, gently drawing the curtain with his finger, instantly widening the beam of light into the room, illuminating the secretary's panic-stricken face.

Liusu District doesn't have sunlight, only simulated solar lights.

"Moreover, this Hunter is very formidable." Lin Lun added further, "Biao didn't tell the truth."

"I'll contact several other gangs right now, organize all the best hands in the district to intercept him!" The secretary quickly said, "If we can't beat him face to face, we'll hit him from the shadows! Even a Hunter isn't bulletproof! Boss, you need to figure out a way to move that thing, I'll stay to stall the Public Security Bureau's people!"

"Can't beat him face to face... do you think shooting from the shadows will kill him? Ha." Lin Lun let out another cold laugh, "Don't forget, Biao also has a gun."

"This..."

"Where is Biao?"

"After delivering the message, he said he felt sick and wanted to go to Tu's clinic. I didn't allow it, had him locked in the bathroom." Secretary replied.

"Bring him over."

A few minutes later, the boss of Happiness Supermarket was dragged into Lin Lun's office, flanked by two muscular men.

"Mr. Lin... Mr. Lin!" As soon as the musclemen released him, the supermarket boss crouched on the ground, crawled on his knees to Lin Lun's feet, crying profusely, "It's my fault! I was careless and let that Sheriff discover the underground hideout of the supermarket! I was incompetent, couldn't eliminate that guy, couldn't relieve Mr. Lin's burden... I'm such a waste!"

Speaking, he suddenly slapped himself, the crisp sound of the slap echoing in the office: "I'm useless! I'm trash! I've failed Mr. Lin's trust!"

"Biao... there's one thing you know?" Lin Lun stepped back half a step, looking down at the supermarket boss, "People shouldn't call themselves useless... because useless people don't need to live."

The hand of the supermarket boss hitting himself froze immediately, a look of extreme terror surging across his face.

"Besides, I don't blame you for this matter." Lin Lun said, "Since that person came calling, it means he discovered this hideout long ago... As for taking him out, the thirty-five people from Hidden Dragon Hall couldn't complete the task, you didn't, I don't blame you."

"Huh? Hidden Dragon Hall... thirty-five people..." The supermarket boss widened his eyes, "Couldn't take him out?"

"The only mistake you made was lying." Lin Lun squatted, pinched the supermarket boss's cheeks, forcibly lifting his head, "You shouldn't still be lying to me."

"I... I..." The fear in the supermarket boss's eyes reached its peak, "I..."

"You know very well, the thirty-five people from Hidden Dragon Hall couldn't kill him, your shock was feigned." Lin Lun stated calmly.

"I'm... I'm sorry..."

Lin Lun released his grip on the supermarket boss's cheeks, disdainfully wiping the sweat and grease on his fingers off the curtain, while the latter fell heavily to the ground, shaking uncontrollably.

"He's a Mysterious Creature Hunter, you know that, right?"

"Yes... I know!" The supermarket boss replied softly, "I shot him... but the bullet couldn't kill him... he... he also knows the Clone Skill... and he's incredibly strong..."

"After delivering the message, were you planning to escape?" Lin Lun suddenly asked.

The supermarket boss's eyes widened again.
