Chapter 60: An Eager Little Inspector (III)
Li Hao was resigned. It’s true! Why don’t you believe me?
The office phone rang; it was the front lobby.
“Vice Captain Liu, there are two visitors here to deliver a silk banner to Li Hao. Classified Affairs say that he’s at Law Enforcement and the team says he’s with you. Can you send Li Hao out here for a second?”
Liu Yan: ......
She stared dumbly at the young man. What the heck was going on?
Liu Yan hung up and frowned at Li Hao. “Are you sure that the ones with the banner are the ones following you?”
“One hundred percent!” Li Hao brimmed with smiles. “They’re so fast! I only just got here. This efficiency with a silk banner... tsk tsk, how amazing! Sis, I’ll head downstairs. Where do you think is a good place to interrogate them? I’ll bring them there.”
“......” Liu Yan really was at a loss. Kid... you... you had them walk up to a place you selected and lay their heads down for you to chop off?
Was something wrong with the brains of those tailing Li Hao? How would they present themselves for target practice otherwise?
“I’ll go with you...” A mystified Liu Yan rose to her feet.
“Don’t!” Li Hao shook his head. “Sis, just think of a place for me!”
“Then... take them to the basement!” answered a baffled Liu Yan. “Do you really not need me to go with you?”
“Nah, that’s too much trouble. They can walk themselves in!” Li Hao chuckled. “Sis, you have to hold down the fort for me. This is my first time doing something like this so I’m a little scared. You know I was a good student before, and that I had a desk job at Classified Affairs after becoming an inspector. I really think that I’ll vomit or lose control of my legs when I see blood!”
Though he exaggerated, it was the truth. His notion of seeing blood was the blood from harming or killing someone, not the typical type of blood from otherwise caused injury. Under such circumstances, it was normal to go weak at the knees, feel guilty, afraid, or horrified unless one was a psychopath with homicidal tendencies.
Li Hao did indeed wish to get some practice in before encountering the scarlet shadow. He was afraid!
He was afraid that he’d cower at the sight of real battle, that he’d sag bonelessly to the ground and shake with dread. It was only to be expected!
The young man hardly thought that he had nerves of steel, that he could remain unmoved at the sight of corpses. He’d been so terrified when Little Yuan died that he couldn’t move. His legs had trembled like a leaf and strength receded from his being. He hadn’t even been able to shriek with dismay.
Thus, a sudden thought popped into his mind when he passed by the two in the car. Maybe it’s time to train my courage.
Liu Yan was reassessing her impression of Li Hao. Here stood a shy little boy until now. Although possessing some natural talent, he was a rookie who didn’t know or understand anything. She even felt that he’d be a burden in the real battlefield and it was hard to say whether or not he’d survive.
It seemed that certain conclusions needed to be updated in this moment. Finding some targets to practice with and wanting to improve his courage... was this the Li Hao she knew?
The vice captain had conducted a thorough investigation of their newest member when he joined, finding him to be an honest person, the resident good guy. He reported to work early, left late, cleaned the offices, fetched water and tea. But now what was he talking about?
What a surprise and shock! Had a supernatural invaded his mind?
“Li Hao...”
“I’m going to head downstairs, sis. Wait for me in the basement?”
Liu Yan gave up what she wanted to say. “Be careful!” She nodded.
“Don’t worry, this is the Inspectorate!” Li Hao grinned. What would two minor characters dare attempt in the Inspectorate? If they possessed any degree of pluck or daring, they wouldn’t be henchmen assigned to follow him!
He raised his knee and shoved it forward!
Bam!
A crisp impact sounded as Zhou He twisted his body to protect his vitals. Li Hao, however, smashed into the small of his back and sent incredible pain through his body!
Damn it! This was a trap! And I put myself in it!
Eyes wide open, the woman fished out a dagger from the depths of her pants and tried to stab the young man!
......
Several people watched silently in the depths of the basement—Liu Long was among them. His gaze was a complicated mix of peculiarity. What a strategy of blocking the enemy’s retreat and destroying them! It was... this was... rather unbelievable.
Was Li Hao really the cowardly sort? He was more audacious to the point of stepping on a tiger’s tail! Was this anything that a regular person would dare do?
“If the kid survives upcoming events... he’s gonna grow up to be a vicious character!” sighed the thin and reedy Wu Chao.
The portly Chen Jian chuckled with some restraint. The kid... was such a villain!
Yun Yao and Liu Yan didn’t say anything; they watched in silence.
“He’s met a good match,” Liu Long whispered after a while. “A Slayer of Tens and one who’s versed in martial arts despite not being a Slayer. It looks like the other side is quite strong to send two Slayers just to shadow someone!”
While Slayer didn’t sound all that strong, Liu Long knew that there might not be one hundred Slayers and Starlights together out of the million-strong population of Silver City. That made for less than one per ten thousand!
Yet, there was one in front of them and simply assigned to keep an eye on their target. Would Li Hao be able to handle both at the same time in his first combat exercise? Despite his successful plotting, it was clear to see that they were both old hands.
All five Demon Hunters keenly watched the fight.
......
Within the premises.
Having the advantage of surprise, Li Hao continued his attacks without hesitation!
Tiger Pounce!
Hands mercilessly curved into claws, the young man treated the fight as his coming-of-age present. This was no practice session, it was the congratulatory gift for him advancing to Slayer of Tens!
Since the scarlet shadow wants to kill me, I’m not going to just sit around and wait to be killed! Imma kill you two first and give you guys a taste of defeat through your small fry!
Pfft!
His hands sunk into Zhou He’s arms and clawed a massive chunk of flesh out. Li Hao grimaced when blood sprayed from the wound. His own blood agitated out of his spleen, but he wasn’t afraid!
Am I supposed to be afraid of you guys? You’re only human, I’d do the same thing to the scarlet shadow!
“ROAR!!”
