Chapter 786 - 786 786 The New Enemy
786: Chapter 786: The New Enemy 786: Chapter 786: The New Enemy The robbers and Organization X’s personnel were exchanging gunfire, bullets flew wildly, blood was splattering, and soon the air was filled with cries of pain.
Seeing the dire circumstances, Gu Fan and Su Hui made up their minds not to get involved.
They lowered their heads, hunched their backs, and slipped away through another route.
“What the hell is going on!” Gu Fan was baffled.
Meeting the robbers, who exactly was the unlucky one here — them or the robbers?
Su Hui remarked, “The commotion now being made is definitely going to alert the local police.
If we don’t leave quickly, we’ll likely be questioned too.”
Gu Fan agreed, adding, “In a situation like this, I believe the personnel of Organization X will retreat within a short time and not cause us trouble.
What I’m worried about is, if Organization X is powerful enough to quell this chaos and even use the local law enforcement to capture us.”
“Which means we can’t trust anyone now; it’s all up to us.” Su Hui and Gu Fan continued their escape, but after running for a while, they realized there was a problem.
They were unfamiliar with the area and there were no safe places to hide.
Staying in a hotel was out of the question.
Without anyone’s help, Su Hui knew that she and Gu Fan would eventually get caught.
They had to come up with a plan quickly.
While Gu Fan and Su Hui were in a deep thought, a car near them suddenly came hurtling, nearly running them over, making their hearts race.
The driver stuck his head out, wanting to say something, but was taken aback upon seeing familiar faces.
Then he pulled his head back in.
Gu Fan recognized the driver as a scientist who also studied the space-time door.
He hadn’t expected to encounter a surviving individual.
The sight lifted his spirits.
“Hey, mate, wait for us.” Gu Fan and Su Hui ran directly towards the car.
The scientist tried to drive away but before he could wind up his window, Gu Fan and Su Hui had already jumped in, looking extremely pleased to see him.
The scientist, however, wasn’t pleased.
He looked terrified and even attempted to stop the car to escape.
Su Hui was quick to act, pulling the scientist back in.
Scared, he held his head and begged, “Please don’t kill me, please.”
“Who’s going to kill you?
I am Gu Fan, take a close look.” Gu Fan didn’t know what the scientist had gone through, but now was not the time to ask.
He instructed the scientist to drive away quickly.
The scientist, who seemed terrified, followed Gu Fan’s order and drove away.
Meanwhile, in a van, Qiao Ya and Dong Ni stared at a screen, their faces bleak.
Despite sending out several teams and deploying drones, they haven’t located Gu Fan and Su Hui.
They had no idea where the duo had gone.
They were a slippery pair.
Dong Ni said, “This town isn’t large.
We will find Gu Fan and Su Hui eventually.
We have already staked out several intersections, so they can’t escape.
I’m just worried that this commotion has hampered our operation.”
“Take it easy, the organization will handle it.
Let’s focus on more pressing issues.” Qiao Ya seemed anxious, sweating in his palms.
Dong Ni knew what Qiao Ya was worried about and said, “You’re worried about Gu Fan’s comrades, aren’t you?
If we make a move on Gu Fan, those people won’t let us off.”
Qiao Ya nodded, “Right, you’ve seen their capabilities.
Are you confident we can handle them?
Even if the organization can, it doesn’t mean they’ll protect us.
In the organization’s eyes, we are dispensable.”
Upon hearing this, Dong Ni fell silent.
Why did Gu Fan and Su Hui have to appear?
If they had appeared earlier or later, they wouldn’t have run into each other.
It felt as if they were deliberately looking for trouble.
“So, what do we do now?” Dong Ni had faith in Qiao Ya’s leadership and was entirely relying on him.
As Qiao Ya was about to reply, the van door opened.
A blond-haired, blue-eyed woman in a black trench coat stepped in.
With a cold and dissatisfied look, she began questioning the moment she arrived, “Why is your operation moving so slowly?
You still haven’t captured anyone and you’ve made such a mess.
The organization was forced to get me involved.”
“Helen?
You’re taking over?” Dong Ni apparently despised this woman and wore a reluctant expression on seeing her.
Helen responded with disdain, “Isn’t it because you’re incompetent?
I was holidaying in this town and you ruined it.”
“If the organization has assigned you, I shall obey unconditionally.” Qiao Ya quickly vacated the command seat, giving way, which surprised Helen.
Given their competition within the organization, she didn’t expect him to give up his position so easily.
Although Dong Ni was not willing to, he understood Qiao Ya’s intention.
Qiao Ya really didn’t want to get involved in this.
He had allowed himself to be captured by Gu Fan, intending to let him go.
But the organization was forcing him to capture Gu Fan.
Just when Qiao Ya was in a fix, someone arrived to take the fall, and he couldn’t have asked for more.
Though Helen had some doubts, she didn’t think too much and asked Qiao Ya to report on the latest developments.
Pointing to the screen displaying the recent shootout, Qiao Ya began, “We just had our first encounter with Gu Fan but he happened to meet local robbers.
So our personnel and the robbers accidentally engaged in a firefight, which escalated the situation.
We have deployed several teams and drones for reconnaissance but have not found Gu Fan and Su Hui.”
“I have been living in this place for a month, and I’m quite familiar with it.
Deploy additional personnel in these spots.” Helen pointed out a few locations on the screen, while Qiao Ya and Dong Ni expressed their disinterest.
They prepared to leave.
Seeing the expressions of Qiao Ya and Dong Ni, who seemed eager to escape, Helen wrinkled her brow, wondering what they were afraid of.
Were Gu Fan and Su Hui so difficult to capture?
When they returned to the organization, Qiao Ya and Dong Ni knew the organization would not believe their encounter in the Triangle Sea Area, so they concocted a more believable story, downplaying the incident.
They never mentioned Gu Fan, Su Hui, and others, so Organization X didn’t know about these people or their peculiarities.
This was why Qiao Ya decided to let Gu Fan go.
However, once the organization captures Gu Fan and find out that he had encountered Qiao Ya in the Triangle Sea Area, they will doubt Qiao Ya for withholding information and he and Dong Ni will be in danger.
Unfortunately, when Qiao Ya encountered Gu Fan again in the underground research base, other personnel of Organization X were present.
He couldn’t hide the matter from them, leaving everything up to luck now.
