Since Liu Zhongyi had finalized the plan, Wang Xinhua, as his subordinate, would not oppose it. The two hid in the tunnel, quietly lying in wait.
As an outstanding member of the criminal investigation team, despite being in his forties, Liu Zhongyi showed no signs of fatigue after waiting for several hours, let alone the younger Wang Xinhua.
"Liu Captain, how much longer do you think we need to wait?"
Wang Xinhua asked in a low voice.
"What, do you need to go to the bathroom?"
Liu Zhongyi said casually.
"Uh, I do feel a bit of urgency."
He had drunk some coffee on the way, and now Wang Xinhua really couldn't hold it any longer.
Liu Zhongyi pointed to the wall beside them, "Just go there, but be careful not to make any noise."
"Okay."
There was no need for embarrassment between two grown men, so Wang Xinhua walked directly to the wall, unzipped his pants, and was about to relieve himself.
"Xinhua, wait, someone is coming."
What?
Wang Xinhua was startled and quickly walked over, "Where?"
"There seems to be someone at the tunnel entrance."
Liu Zhongyi picked up the infrared binoculars and handed them to Wang Xinhua.
Wang Xinhua took the binoculars and saw that indeed, there was a person standing motionless at the tunnel entrance.
"Liu Captain, what should we do?"
"Let's go, take off the safety."
Liu Zhongyi, with a serious face, pulled out his police pistol, turned off the safety, and motioned for Wang Xinhua to follow.
Without hesitation, Wang Xinhua, who had been a detective for several years, was no stranger to situations requiring the use of firearms. He quickly drew his gun and followed Liu Zhongyi toward the tunnel entrance.
As they approached, the faint moonlight revealed a man in his thirties, wearing a white shirt and black-rimmed glasses, standing motionless at the tunnel entrance.
"We are the police, raise your hands!"
Liu Zhongyi and Wang Xinhua, with their guns drawn, aimed at the unknown man, showing no signs of hesitation. At this time of night, a person appearing in this remote area was highly suspicious.
However, what made Liu Zhongyi frown was that the man seemed to have not heard him, standing there with a blank expression.
Yes, a completely blank expression.
He showed no signs of panic or any other emotion, his face rigid and unresponsive.
This man was strange, no, extremely strange.
Liu Zhongyi had an ominous premonition, which made him nervous, something he had never experienced in his decades of police work.
"Did you hear me? Get down and raise your hands!"
Wang Xinhua, lacking Liu Zhongyi's keen sixth sense, saw that the man remained silent and seemed unaffected by Liu Zhongyi's commands, so he sternly shouted.
However, the man still did not move.
"Did you hear me?"
Wang Xinhua's anger rose, and his voice became more forceful.
"Crack..."
As if his neck had been stiff for a long time, the man's neck turned, making a bone-chilling sound that made both Liu Zhongyi and Wang Xinhua feel a chill down their spines.
With no words and no emotion, the man's eyes stared at them, and he took a step forward, moving toward them.
"Stop, stop right there..."
Usually, when someone is pointed at with a gun, they either surrender immediately or run away. It was unheard of for someone to ignore the police and walk toward them.
This unprecedented situation left both men stunned, even the experienced Liu Zhongyi was momentarily taken aback.
But Liu Zhongyi quickly regained his composure, narrowed his eyes, and slightly lowered the gun, aiming at the man's leg and pulling the trigger.
"Bang!"
The bullet shot out at supersonic speed and hit the man's thigh.
"Liu Captain..."
Wang Xinhua was shocked, not expecting Liu Zhongyi to fire without hesitation.
However, the next scene made both men's pupils dilate, and they involuntarily took a step back.
The strange man, despite being shot in the thigh, continued to walk toward them as if he had not felt the impact of the bullet.
This was not just unheard of; it was something they had never even heard of.
A chill ran through both men's hearts.
"Bang!"
Wang Xinhua was dazed; Liu Captain fired another shot. How would he write the report? No, this was not about the report.
The man, who had been shot in both thighs, continued to walk toward them with a blank expression. More shockingly, there was no blood flowing from his wounds.
"Xinhua, shoot, something is wrong with this man."
The bizarre situation made Liu Zhongyi lose all his composure. He raised his gun and aimed at the man's chest, intending to deliver a fatal shot.
"Bang, bang..."
Five shots were fired in quick succession, three hitting the man's chest and two his stomach. Such severe gunshot wounds would incapacitate any human, even causing instant death.
However...
The wounds did not bleed, and the man showed no signs of being affected, continuing to walk toward them with unwavering determination.
The bizarre situation left even the experienced Liu Zhongyi trembling with fear.
"Aim for his head!"
Seeing that shooting the man's chest and stomach was ineffective, Liu Zhongyi, while retreating, aimed at the man's forehead and fired several shots in quick succession.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
"What?"
Liu Zhongyi had always been confident in his marksmanship, ranking first among his peers in the same graduating class and maintaining his skills over the years. At a distance of twenty meters, he could hit his target with pinpoint accuracy. However, his shots aimed at the man's forehead were all dodged by a slight tilt of the man's head.
At such a close range, how could someone dodge bullets?
This was reality, not a movie!
But the harsh reality was terrifying.
"You, you..."
Wang Xinhua was drenched in cold sweat, seeing the man getting closer. He pulled the trigger and aimed at the man's forehead.
"Bang, bang..."
The gun's muzzle flashed continuously, and the recoil caused the gun to rise slightly with each shot, but the bullets all accurately aimed at the man's forehead.
Despite this, the man seemed to anticipate their shots, easily dodging them with a slight tilt of his head, displaying an almost supernatural skill.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that anyone could so easily dodge close-range gunshots.
"What should we do?"
Wang Xinhua and Liu Zhongyi were still retreating, but they had run out of ammunition.
"Xinhua..."
The two had been partners for a long time, and Wang Xinhua understood Liu Zhongyi's intent from a single glance.
Suddenly, after the magazine was empty, Liu Zhongyi threw his gun at the man's face and lunged at him.
Meanwhile, Wang Xinhua, seeing Liu Zhongyi throw the gun, immediately stepped forward and struck the man's legs with the gun's handle.
One attacked the upper body, the other the lower, and their cooperation was seamless. Any ordinary criminal would have been immediately subdued by this move.
"Slap."
But this seamless attack was easily deflected by the man, who, with a single hand, swatted both Liu Zhongyi and the gun away as if they were a misbehaving child.
At the same time, he casually kicked Wang Xinhua, who was attacking his lower body, in the face, causing several teeth to fly out with blood.
Oh no!
The combined attack of the two was easily broken, and both Liu Zhongyi and Wang Xinhua felt a sense of impending doom.
Just as they were trying to get up from the ground, a sudden explosion rang out!
The man, who had been shot seven times and had easily deflected their combined attack, had his head explode like a watermelon, sending blood and brain matter flying, splattering both men's faces.
