Chapter 912 929: Overbearing Black Qi
The Tsar Group's actions have always centered on sneak attacks, and this attack has placed great pressure on the police, leaving Qi Manlin overwhelmed and preventing Lin Mu from obtaining effective cooperation from the police, making it much easier to deal with Lin Mu.Thus, Sharapova orchestrated this case, as the police have no evidence that the two cases were committed by the same person and will have to open another investigation, which will confuse the police and significantly disperse their resources, making it much easier for Sharapova to continue with the next step of her plan.
However, Sharapova seems to have underestimated Qi Manlin's background and connections. After all, her father Qi Shangjing is backing her up, so the pressure on Qi Manlin is not too great since Qi Shangjing still has power and a wide range of connections, so protecting his daughter shouldn't be a problem.
Nonetheless, Qi Manlin obviously doesn't want things to get out of hand. If there are any casualties, no one can bear the responsibility, especially with municipal leaders and elites from all walks of life in Wancheng present. She was furious, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, as she stepped forward and pressed her jade-like elbow against the thug's throat. "Quick, tell me where you planted the bomb?"
The thug tilted his head back, revealing a sinister smile on his contorted face. "Want to know? Dream on. This operation targets you specifically, so you'll have to bear the responsibility for the deaths!"
"Cut the crap and confess, or I won't let you off!" Qi Manlin coldly drew her gun.
However, she also knew these thugs were desperate, not afraid of death, and the lives of several municipal leaders were in peril, plus the media was present. If a major casualty occurred, she would have unshirkable responsibility.
"Go ahead, kill me. I absolutely won't tell you, and it seems there's only four minutes left. You can just wait to collect the corpses, hahaha..." The thug grinned viciously.
Qi Manlin seemed to have no way to deal with the thug; he wasn't afraid of death and clearly disregarded her gun threat. She involuntarily turned her head to look at Lin Mu, perhaps this maverick had some clever idea.
"Ha, well then, let me handle this!" Lin Mu said, then turned to the policemen behind him, "You guys, immediately go over to the hall, gather all the police force, investigate the site one by one, and evacuate the crowd as quickly as possible. Remember, it must be in an orderly manner, not chaotic, because if chaos ensues, a simple thing becomes exaggerated, especially with journalists present. Everyone needs to stay calm, you understand what I mean, right?" Lin Mu's demeanor was even more astute and experienced than Qi Manlin, the chief of the Public Security Bureau. After all, he was once the mercenary king of the Wolf Fang Team, far superior to a brash young policewoman.
"I understand!" the officer nodded and then led a group of policemen away from the parking lot.
At this point, only Lin Mu, Qi Manlin, and the four thugs remained at the parking lot exit. Lin Mu reached out, grabbed a thug, and slammed him onto the ground, placing his foot on the thug's head, "I'll give you one last chance, tell me where you planted the bomb?"
The thug's face was distorted under Lin Mu's foot, yet he still let out a sinister chuckle, "You'll never find out!"
"No problem, I gave you a chance, and you didn't cherish it. Alright, I'll let you enjoy a taste of Huaxia's kung fu feast!" Lin Mu grinned, suddenly exhaled forcefully, extended two fingers, and a misty stream of black Qi emerged from his fingertips. This was the Black Qi Realm that Lin Mu reached after mastering the Ninth Layer of the Diamond Sutra. In this realm, he could gather True Qi within himself and force it into an opponent's body. Normally, if it were used correctly, the opponent would benefit as this Inner Qi could ward off illness and strengthen the body. But Lin Mu wasn't following the normal pattern, so he would reverse the flow of the black True Qi into the opponent's body, inducing an agony like a thousand arrows piercing the heart!
The black True Qi swiftly coursed from Lin Mu's fingertips into the thug's seven channels and eight meridians. The thug felt an odd sensation inside, shivered while lying on the ground, and then felt as if tens of thousands of tiny worms crawled into his bloodstream.
"Enjoy it!" Lin Mu coldly laughed, then removed his foot.
The thug didn't feel pain initially, only intense itching, but soon the sensation magnified as if tens of thousands of ants were gnawing at his tendons, seemingly drinking his blood! And they were slowly climbing towards his heart. This experience was akin to being in Purgatory, worse than death itself!
"Ah... Ah..."
The thug kept rolling on the ground, veins bulging on his forehead, continuously banging his head against the ground, wishing to shatter his skull to calm the inner torment, but all efforts were futile, merely temporarily alleviating the torment inside!
"Ha, buddy, ready to talk now?" Lin Mu grinned.
"No... I won't talk!" the thug howled, continuously slamming his head against the ground, "Just kill me, end it!"
"Eh... tough guy, since that's the case, I'll use you as a lab rat to study the ultimate pain humans can endure!" Lin Mu chuckled.
"Ah... kill me, I beg you!" The thug kept howling, his forehead already a bloody mess!
The thugs leaning against the car saw this, and despite their injuries, suddenly rushed at Lin Mu.
"Damn, overestimating themselves!"
Lin Mu grinned, spun around, bang, bang, bang, several loud bangs, as the thugs who rushed up were sent flying by Lin Mu's three punches and two kicks!
"Kill him!" a thug commanded, then three of them madly charged at the one lying on the ground howling.
"Brother Lin, it seems they're trying to silence him!" Qi Manlin said beside him.
"Ha, not that easy!" Lin Mu leaped into the air, executed a beautiful spinning kick, a series of three consecutive Heart-piercing Life-Taker kicks, sending the three charging thugs flying once again.
Thud, the thug's chest sank heavily, and a burst of blood spurted from his mouth.
"Since your bones are so hard, then taste the kung fu feast of Huaxia. I'm always generous, I don't mind sharing some True Qi with you." Lin Mu grinned, then suddenly gathered energy and concentrated the black Qi at his fingertips, before darting through the air, as he landed again, the three thugs were hit, involuntarily shivering, followed by a cool sensation sweeping their bodies, then it slowly felt like countless tiny bugs invaded their bloodstream.
Observing their pitiful comrade banging his head on the ground earlier, the remaining three thugs knew they would eventually face the same fate, exchanged glances, then pulled out daggers, immediately stabbing themselves in the abdomen.
