Chapter 613

Just then.

Ren Xiaoping's phone suddenly rang; he hurriedly took it out and found it was a message from Hua Ping.

Earlier, when attending the event.

The two had met once, and thanks to the organizer's matchmaking, they successfully exchanged mobile numbers.

But after adding each other.

The two had not spoken a word.

Hua Ping did not speak because he simply had no interest in Ren Xiaoping.

Ren Xiaoping did not speak because he simply thought this fellow Hua Ping was truly detestable.

That is why the two had never spoken at all.

Unconsciously, a contest of wills had formed.

Of course.

All of this was based on Ren Xiaoping's private assumptions.

So.

When Ren Xiaoping discovered the message was from Hua Ping.

He was slightly surprised, then immediately broke into a smile.

"Now, victory is mine! Hahaha!" Ren Xiaoping suddenly burst out laughing.

Xu Si was left completely stunned.

As Ren Xiaoping looked at the message from Hua Ping, the smile on his face suddenly froze, then gradually faded away.

Seeing the change in Ren Xiaoping's expression, and noticing the surrounding gazes and crowd, Xu Si still chose to grit his teeth and approach, asking, "Ren Xiaoping, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Ren Xiaoping simply turned his phone screen toward Xu Si, letting him clearly see the message on it.

After reading it, Xu Si was also somewhat surprised.

It read.

【We have obtained a lot of information. If you wish to hear it, I will tell you everything.】

【Now, we have the exact location of the mercenary band. After reporting to my superiors, I have dispatched armed forces to carry out a purge. They are in the southern forest; do not go there recently, as accidental injury is likely.】

【It won't be long before the mercenary band problem is completely resolved. What we must consider first now is Ning Chen's specific location and information; the rest involves considering the Gulf family and the local power, the Long Hu Gang.】

【Additionally, there is an urgent case that needs handling. Our side lacks manpower, and sending armed forces over is also troublesome and could easily create negative repercussions, so for this mission, you may choose to accept it or not.】

【The option is given to you; you choose.】

After reading the final sentence.

Xu Si's expression also slowly began to change, becoming exactly the same as Ren Xiaoping's.

First came shock, then astonishment, and finally, a stunned blankness.

The two stood like statues for several minutes.

Then Xu Si came to his senses. "What should we do? Which matter should we handle first?"

Ren Xiaoping said with an impatient look, "Of course we handle the Ning Chen matter! I don't want to deal with anything else right now."

"Besides, I've already said it!" Ren Xiaoping pounded his chest and stamped his feet, shouting, "I must arrest Ning Chen! To give that Hua Ping a surprise, making him completely admire me! Recognize me! Respect me!"

"He hasn't exactly been disrespectful to you, has he?" Xu Si retorted. "And even if you catch Ning Chen, I'm afraid Captain Hua's face won't show any expression at all; your reaction is simply too extreme!"

Ren Xiaoping looked at Xu Si, pouting and saying, "Make you angry! Make you angry! Besides, don't tell me you haven't realized it! We are on a busy street right now, and many people are watching you!"

"What!" Xu Si immediately cried out in alarm. Originally, no one was looking at him, but at this very moment, many people were startled by his sudden shout and turned their heads to look at Xu Si.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xu Si truly believed Ren Xiaoping was telling the truth, so he became somewhat frightened, covering his head with his short-sleeved jacket to hide from those gazes.

Ren Xiaoping burst into loud laughter. "You fellow are truly amusing!"

Though he said so with his mouth.

Ren Xiaoping still grabbed Xu Si's sleeve and walked toward a less crowded area.

"I want to handle that urgent case." As they walked, Xu Si suddenly said while still covering his head.

"Why?" Ren Xiaoping tilted his head slightly, asking with some confusion.

Xu Si hesitated for a long time; Ren Xiaoping silently watched him, waiting for his answer.

Xu Si spoke with a worried tone: "If it is an urgent case, something bad might be happening over there right now. If we are a step late, it could cause irreparable losses. I want to go help over there; even if it turns out to be a false alarm, or even if I can't help at all, as long as everyone is safe, that is enough."

Hearing Xu Si's words.

This was the first time Ren Xiaoping had heard this fellow speak such a long sentence.

But.

You fellow are actually quite cool!

Ren Xiaoping made a couple of grumbling sounds, then smiled and said, "Alright then! I'll listen to you. Don't worry; I will go tell Hua Ping about this right now. His reply speed should be very fast."

For this shut-in yet infinitely gentle fellow.

Ren Xiaoping was completely unable to refuse him.

Anyway, the Ning Chen matter is not urgent; we can just look for him slowly later.

Quickly.

When the two arrived at a secluded place.

Ren Xiaoping turned on his phone and typed in the chat box with Hua Ping: "Captain Hua, I want to accept that urgent mission. Please send the information quickly; I fear it will be too late if we wait. It may also take some time for us to arrive at the location."

The time difference was almost no more than three seconds.

The message from Hua Ping's side was sent over.

【Chonghe Street, Road 34, the second road in front of the Eurasia Assembly Market. There is a man holding a revolver killing people there!】

456. The bonus is a full ten thousand.

【On Chonghe Street, No. 34 Road, on the second road in front of the Eurasia Complex Market, a man holding a revolver is killing people!】

He looked at the message sent by Hua Ping.

Ren Xiaoping froze, then repeated to Xu Si: "Hua Ping sent a message—there's a man with a revolver going wild and killing people on a road in front of a market on Chonghe Street. What do we do? Go now?"

After rapidly analyzing the message, Xu Si said gravely: "Someone is killing— we must get there immediately. Otherwise, more lives may be lost."

"Your gun isn't the original one!" Ren Xiaoping warned. "And you haven't fired it in ages—I don't know if your skill has degraded, but if one of us gets shot dead by that guy, we're done for!"

Xu Si patted Ren Xiaoping's shoulder and said: "Leave it to me. You know my shooting. Within five hundred meters, I can hit anything I aim at."

Ren Xiaoping laughed. "Good. I've got no combat ability—I'll be counting on you then."

Xu Si made a disgusted face, glancing at Ren Xiaoping. "Does the reputation of Guanghe's Number One Cop really only rest on your brains?"

"Ahahaha!" Ren Xiaoping scratched the back of his head, laughing awkwardly. "I can't do anything—I'll just watch you take shots from afar with your little gun, biubiubiu, and get it done fast, then go find Ning Chen!"

Saying this,

Ren Xiaoping walked out of the alley openly.

Xu Si sighed, pulled his coat over his head, and followed him out.

Ren Xiaoping pulled out his phone, hailing a taxi, and headed toward the location with Xu Si.

Inside the car.

The driver glanced at Xu Si's furtive behavior, frowned, and asked confusedly: "Sir, what are you doing? Don't worry—this route is fully monitored. If anything goes wrong, the company will send someone. You're safe!"

Xu Si looked at the driver, hesitated, then said: "Just drop us off there and leave quickly. Don't stick around to gawk."

"Huh?" the driver asked, puzzled. "What's happening over there?"

"Uh!" Xu Si spoke hesitantly, his pace slow.

Ren Xiaoping looked over and answered for him: "Someone's shooting people with a handgun over there. It's extremely dangerous—no one should go near."

"Ahahaha! You're joking, right? Or playing some internet meme or game? I passed that spot just three hours ago—nothing happened at all!" The driver smiled warmly.

He didn't believe them.

He thought these two passengers were playing some prank.

"We're not lying—it's true!" Xu Si said, unusually agitated. "It's really dangerous there. Just drop us off at the edge."

Ren Xiaoping nodded. "Uncle, we're not joking. There really is a man shooting people with a handgun—specifically a revolver. That alone sounds terrifying. Who even uses revolvers these days?"

"Ahahaha! Really? Then I'd love to go take a look!" the driver chuckled. "That'd be exciting! Driving every day is boring—suddenly something like this pops up? I want to join in!"

Watching the stubborn driver,

Ren Xiaoping helplessly pulled out his police ID. "Uncle, look at this—it's a police ID. We've been dispatched to handle this case. We're not joking. We're plainclothes—you wouldn't recognize us, but don't risk your life!"

Xu Si also pulled out his handgun and tapped it lightly twice.

The heavy metallic weight spoke for itself.
