Chapter 300 Visit From the Administration
It had been a long time since Chen Ke had such a conversation with someone. He talked about things that had nothing to do with combat or psychic power, but about the customs and life of ordinary people. At this time, Pihom seemed not to be the leader of a robbery organization, but an amiable old federal uncle.
The modern history of Opportunity City is like a picture scroll of rise and fall. From an inland town that no one cared about, it developed into a car factory in the world, and then it became what it is today.
In the past 50 years, several generations living in Opportunity City have experienced earth-shaking changes. They rode the tide of the times straight into the clouds, as if they could reach out and grab the stars and the moon, and then they were crushed into the soil by the wheels of the times and forced to leave their hometowns.
Time is like a long river, and people can only go with the flow. Is it the times that create heroes, or heroes that shape the times? This is a false proposition. In the dark, fate has its own direction, but it chooses you.
When Pihom talked about the past, it seemed as if he had returned to his youth, and Chen Ke was also very happy to listen.
At this moment, the door of the gun shop was suddenly pushed open. Almost subconsciously, both of them put their hands on their holsters and almost took out their guns.
The door of the gun shop was only ajar, and anyone could push it open effortlessly, but who would casually walk into a closed gun shop on this secluded street?
There were four people coming. The amazing thing was that they were all Asian. It was a rare thing to meet Asians in a place like Opportunity City, let alone meet four of them at once.
"Who are you...?" Pihom asked.
The four Asians looked at Chen Ke without saying a word. Pihom looked at Chen Ke and reached out to touch the revolver behind his waist.
Chen Ke held Pihom's wrist and shook his head. He knew that Pihom thought these four were looking for revenge on Chen Ke.
But they were not, that was all made up, and Chen Ke didn't know these four people.
"We are from the Administration." The leading Asian said.
He was a capable young man with a shaved head. His companions were as capable as him. They were dressed in different casual clothes and carried triangular bags. They were low-threat armed duty uniforms. Chen Ke had no doubt that they were all fully armed.
Hiding in the crowd in the market, wearing low-threat sportswear and casual clothes, carrying pistols, and working in groups of four, this was the standard practice of a four-person special agent team.
"Administration...? What are you doing here?" Chen Ke asked.
"We have been investigating the strange things that have happened in the past two months. We have locked down the suspect's range of activities. It seems that he is operating around this place as a base, so we came in to take a look." The capable young man said.
Chen Ke felt a chill on his back. These two months... To a large extent, isn't it about him? But he didn't change his face. The man hadn't said what the reason was yet, so he couldn't show his feet.
"We don't know what the strange things you are talking about are. This is just a closed gun store." Pihom said.
"I know, we don't mean anything else, we just came in to take a look. I thought there was no one here." The young man looked around and smiled.
"There's a car parked outside the door, didn't you see it?" Chen Ke asked.
"The city has not been peaceful recently. Not long ago, many mutant toad people appeared in the abandoned residential area not far from here. There have been many murders in Lafite Road and Holy Oak. The double effect of Xijin Building has caused the Administration to lose many people. There have also been some strange incidents in the subway of Lafite Road..." the young man said.
Chen Ke leaned on the counter and looked at the man without saying a word.
"What do you have to do with what you said?" Pihom didn't know some of the things that the young man said later, but he knew very well about the toad man.
"After each incident, the camera at the scene will capture the figure of an Asian youth. We believe that they are not isolated. In any case, this person is an extremely dangerous person." The young man said.
Chen Ke moved his right hand away from the edge of the counter and dropped it to his side. Pihom also slowly put his hand on the grip of the revolver.
The aura of the four Administration agents opposite also changed. Only a well-trained killing machine would have such an aura.
At this time, the door was pushed open again.
It was Lucina and Priskin.
"Lao Pi! Get ready to move... Who is this?" As soon as Priskin entered the door, he saw four Asian youths standing in the gun store.
"I think they are lost." Lucina looked at Chen Ke and Pihom, and immediately knew the current situation.
Four to four.
Do we really want to fight? Chen Ke did not move, but his thoughts were surging. There is no way back if we start. If a soul gun flies out, someone in this room will definitely die.
Lucina, Priskin and Pihom are all ordinary people. They probably only have the most ordinary pistols in their hands, but the four on the opposite side are definitely psychics, and they are well prepared.
Chen Ke can stop time, but he can't reach four targets at the same time. If one is missed, all three of them will die.
"Looks like you are moving?" The young man suddenly laughed.
"Yes, business here is not good." Pihom said.
"It's not too safe either. I advise you to move quickly. The suspect may be nearby." The young man said.
"Yes, we will leave in a few days." Priskin said.
The eight people were silent for a while, and the atmosphere eased a little.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhou Yi. These three are my companions. They are Zhang Hehuan, Jia Jin and Li Ming." Zhou Yi smiled.
"My name is Chen...Xiao Ming. I hope you can catch the suspect as soon as possible." Chen Ke waved his hand.
Lucina covered her mouth and smiled for a while.
"We will, after all, the duty of the Administration is to protect citizens. It's nice to meet you. Let's go to other places. See you again if we are destined to meet." Zhou Yi said.
"I don't think we are destined to meet." Chen Ke said.
Lucina and Priskin made way for the four Asian agents to leave the door. They were relieved after they walked away.
"You came at the right time." Pihom smiled.
The two did not comment. Priskin had already made an appointment, and Lucina just came to find Chen Ke.
"Who is that?" Lucina asked.
"They said they were from the Administration, and it seemed that they were chasing Chen Ke..." Pihom frowned, turned to look at Chen Ke, and asked again: "Do you think they already know it's you?"
"If that's the case, I will find a way to lead them away." Chen Ke shrugged.
Lucina looked at Chen Ke with some worry. Being targeted by opponents on the road was nothing. If it was the Administration, it would be a big trouble.
"I really didn't know you had made such a big fuss in the past two months... No wonder Heinard always said you were busy." Pihom said.
"Chen Ke... I'm sorry." Lucina approached Chen Ke and put her left hand on his shoulder.
"Lucina, you look... a little weird today." Priskin on the side suddenly said.
"Hmm?" Lucina asked in confusion.
"I don't know, I always feel that you are different from before. How should I put it, a little weak... Not as energetic as before." Priskin said, slapping Lucina on the back.
"Don't touch me, Maozi." Lucina was furious and pushed Priskin's hand away.
"I don't think this is something that should be shared." Pihom looked at Chen Ke and smiled meaningfully.
Chapter 300, 301 was originally released this afternoon, but I forgot to set the timer and sent it out. Damn it.
