Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Boat Capsizes

  Chapter 59

  Even the sharpest blade edge had no cold light reflection, as if it completely belonged to darkness!

  Lin Xun didn't dare get that close this time, carefully and cautiously, with a layer of distance in between, he reached out to touch.

  That damned cop even had a gun; if Lin Chen didn't use sneak attacks, he basically wouldn't have much of an advantage.

  He is not a hunter, except for agility being five points higher than ordinary people, and only the spiritual value that has little effect on combat is six points higher than ordinary people.

  Modernized hot weapons have an overwhelming advantage before contractors break through fifty points in each attribute!

  The seventh floor wasn't difficult to climb. The bright light Lin Chen was chasing suddenly disappeared, he knew that the female police officer had already reached the top floor.

  Lin Chen quickened his pace, like a ghost, silently and quietly "floating" up.

  A faint flame flickered constantly, brightening and dimming, as if it might be extinguished at any moment by the cold wind on the unguarded rooftop!

  Although the light it brings can be negligible, in Lin Chen's eyes, it is almost as bright as the sun, illuminating everything around him with unparalleled brightness, as if bathing in golden sunlight!

  This is a white candle that is about to burn out, two blood-stained syringe needles are randomly discarded on the ground, one of which has been trampled!

  Fine rain like cow hair falls into the candlelight, not enough to extinguish it, but makes it dance more violently, as if in a frenzy!

  Two emaciated young men lay listlessly on the cold ground, letting the cold wind blow and the icy rain beat down on them.

  Apart from this, the rooftop is empty and open, with nothing blocking the view!

  "Not good!"

  The dim candlelight cast a vague outline of Lin Chen's face, and as soon as he poked his head out, Lin Chen realized that something was off!

  That policewoman holding a flashlight was not on the rooftop!

  "Don't move!"

  Lin Chen suddenly came to his senses, just wanting to make a move, when a bright beam of light suddenly shone on his face!

  Lin Xun only felt a wave of dazzling whiteness, his eyes could adapt to the darkness, but correspondingly, his resistance to strong light had decreased greatly!

  Without making a sound, he quickly sheathed the two short swords and Lin Chen pretended to struggle to cover his eyes with his hands, avoiding the direct sunlight.

  Through the bright light, Lin Chen vaguely saw a black figure standing upright with his hands crossed in front of his chest, one hand holding a flashlight and the other holding a gun, aiming at Lin Chen's body along the direction of the light beam!

  "Lindust, it's actually you!"

  A gentle voice rose, but the previous concern was gone. The tone carried a chill that pierced through the heart!

  "It's me."

  Lin Xun saw through his fingers that the policewoman's gun-holding posture was familiar and calm, without any shaking, comparable to the medical staff in the Matthew Mercenary Corps!

  Lin Chen's gaze sank instantly, this female cop, is probably not comparable to those rice buckets in the police station. In a situation without firearms, if he wanted to resist, the possibility of being shot on the spot would be over 80%!

  His eyes darted around, and Lin Chen's mind turned over thousands of thoughts in an instant. Several plans were vetoed by him one after another due to their high risk.

  "Put your hands up and back away! Back away slowly!"

  The policewoman let out a loud cry and slowly walked up.

  Lin Xuan followed his words and slowly retreated. Just as he was about to step onto the sky platform, a sharp glint suddenly flashed across his eyes!

  (Maybe I can take this opportunity to instantly get out of her sight...)

  Just as Lin Xue's legs were slightly bent, ready to burst into full speed at the moment of entering the rooftop, the female police officer with a gun seemed to have seen through her mind and immediately shouted: "Don't play any tricks! If you make any other moves, I'll shoot immediately!"

  Lin Xun was slightly stunned, and at this moment, the female police officer had already taken a few steps forward, expanding her field of vision to the rooftop!

  At this time, even if Lin Chen's speed was twice as fast, he would not be able to completely escape the policewoman's line of sight within two seconds. The opportunity for an instant escape that had just arisen was thoroughly lost due to his momentary hesitation!

  Not decisive enough!

  Lin Xun reflected on himself, and in an instant, he found the reason. If he hadn't hesitated at all just now, he might have already taken someone from the rooftop as a hostage.

  He swept a glance over the empty rooftop and Lin Chen sorrowfully discovered that there was no cover for him to hide behind, this terrain was extremely unfavorable for him!

  There must be a way! There must be a way out of this!

  Lin Chen thought anxiously and retreated continuously under his feet.

  If caught by her, the punishment awaiting Lin Chen would be the most severe, having killed over a dozen law enforcement officers. This crime, in nine out of ten cases, would result in being shot!

  And before the court delivers its verdict, there will also be 24 hours of close surveillance!

  And when sending back to the abyss, the most basic requirement is that it cannot be exposed under the eyes of non-contractors!

  It can be said that if Lin Chen is caught by this female police officer, he will face a life-or-death situation!

  Maybe there is a glimmer of life, but it's almost zero!

  The way back has been completely cut off!

  "Halt! Raise your hands and turn around slowly..."

  A fierce glint flashed in Lin Chen's eyes as he cast a ferocious gaze at the two young drug addicts not far from his feet!

  This gaze seems to be the desperate energy emitted by a fugitive on the verge of death, determined to take down a few people with him even in death!

  "Don't move! Back off! Back off!"

  Under the bright light of the flashlight, every subtle expression on Lin Chen's face was clearly visible to Fan Yong!

  When Lin Chen seemed to be making a move that would harm others' lives and health, he hastily shouted to stop him, taking three steps forward, bringing the muzzle of the gun emitting an icy death aura closer to Lin Chen by several inches!

  "Alright! I'm retreating! I'm retreating! Don't shoot! Don't shoot!"

  Lin Chen seemed to be startled by Fan Rong's action and quickly raised his hands, rapidly retreating!

  "Don't run!"

  Fan Yong was startled instinctively, but Lin Chen's way of retreating wasn't an out-of-the-ordinary action, so in her subconscious mind, she had already screened out the act of firing a gun!

  Moreover, Lin Chen's "cowardice" caused him to exaggerate and retreat, forcing Fan Yong to quicken his pace in order to bring Lin Chen within his control.

  "You... don't come over here!"

  Lin Chen seemed to have been frightened by this handgun and was in a state of panic, when he saw Fan Rong coming forward, not only did he not stop, but instead retreated even faster!

  The width of less than a hundred meters on the rooftop quickly decreased in Lin Xuan's rapid retreat!

  "Don't retreat anymore! It's dangerous!"

  Fan Yu held a flashlight and, being able to see the width of the rooftop more clearly, saw that Lin Chen was about to approach the edge of the rooftop. She hastily called out to stop him!

  But Lin Chen seemed to have not heard it, still quickly retreating, and on his face illuminated by the light, a terrified expression appeared, as if Fan Tong was some kind of fierce beast, making him feel fearful!

  "Halt! Or I'll shoot!"

  Seeing that shouting was ineffective, Lin Chen took a step back and was about to lose his footing and fall off the building. Fan Yong immediately stopped in his tracks, using his gun as a threat!

  This trick really worked, Lin Chen listened and suddenly seemed to be under a petrification spell, his body stopped moving instantly, as if he had planned it in advance, making Fan Tong feel a sense of discord!

  It seems that only when Lin Xuan falls down does she feel normal again.

  "Come slowly, calm down! Slowly, come over..."

  Although the person in front of him was a murderer, as a police officer, Fan Rong had to ensure that no one could harm his personal safety before the court delivered its verdict!

  I'm done for.

  The panic on Lin Chen's face vanished instantly, replaced by a strange smile!

  Lin Xun knew that the female police officer in front of him was also extremely tense, and even a slight provocation might be enough to make her gun fire!

  So Lin Chen slowly took a step back as far as possible...

  One step, empty!

  At this time, Lin Chen was already at the edge of the rooftop, one step away from losing his footing and falling off the building!

  "Hey!"

  Lin Chen's body suddenly arched and then straightened, and Fan Yong clearly saw that his foot had directly landed on empty air!

  The body lost its balance and fell backwards in an instant. In the blink of an eye, Lin Chen was about to fall from a height of over twenty meters!

  Today is another advance update, next week's recommendation will be better, it's a new book selection by category, hope everyone reads and votes, come on!
