When Zheng Yubai woke up in the morning, his right eyelid kept twitching. He used the folk remedy of the countryside and tore off a small piece of paper and stuck it on his eyelid, but it was of no use.
Seeing the white paper on Zheng Yubai's eyelids, Xu Jin couldn't help but be stunned and asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
Zheng Yubai looked out the window at the sunny day and said anxiously, "If my left eye twitches, it means good luck, and if my right eye twitches, it means bad luck. I always feel like something is going to happen today."
"I didn't expect you to be so superstitious." Xu Jin couldn't help laughing.
Zheng Yubai did not tell Xu Jin that his father was coming to Jinghai. After all, if he told this story from the beginning, it would probably take three days and three nights to finish.
"I want to go shopping with Luo Luo today. Do you want to come?" Seeing that Zheng Yubai was a little absent-minded, Xu Jin put her hands on his head and rubbed it gently. This was a massage technique she had just learned from Xue Bingyang. It was said to have the effect of refreshing the mind.
Xu Jin was clever and clever. Although she had only learned from Xue Bingyang for two days, her technique was already very proficient. Zheng Yubai closed his eyes slightly and enjoyed her massage. He felt relaxed and happy, and the uneasiness in his heart was slightly dissipated. However, he still did not forget to ask Xu Jin: "Although the situation is not tense recently, it is better to be careful. I will go with you later, but you and Luo Luo need to put on some makeup."
"So do you want us to look uglier or prettier?" Xu Jin asked playfully.
Zheng Yubai laughed: "Of course I hope you are prettier, but for safety, you should..."
"Oh... Okay, I'll listen to you." In order to satisfy a woman's natural shopping habit, Xu Jin had to sacrifice her beautiful looks. She gave Zheng Yubai a massage for a while and then went to greet Yu Luo who was staying in bed.
Two hours later, Xu Jin and Yu Luo, who had finally finished putting on their makeup, appeared in front of Zheng Yubai, which surprised him a little.
Xu Jin tied a very gaudy headscarf on her head, smeared something on her face, which was gray, and wrapped her body in a bloated down jacket, which completely covered up all her advantages. As for Yu Luo, she had two cute and funny pigtails and a lot of pockmarks on her face, no wonder she pouted and looked reluctant.
"This... is too exaggerated." Zheng Yubai didn't expect Xu Jin to put so much effort into completely destroying the two beauties. But this is much safer, at least from a safety perspective, Zheng Yubai is very satisfied.
When the three of them appeared on the streets of Jinghai, Xu Jin and Yu Luo no longer attracted the attention of the bees and butterflies. The three of them walked steadily through several streets. Because they took refuge in a safe apartment, the two girls had not been shopping for a long time. At this moment, they saw many new winter products and New Year promotions, and their eyes lit up. Zheng Yubai watched from the side and could only smile bitterly.
After walking around with the two girls for a long time, they insisted on eating soup dumplings. Zheng Yubai had to carry the bags they bought and temporarily act as a porter. They came to the famous "Fatty Soup Dumplings" in Jinghai. The two girls ordered crab roe and pork buns. When the steaming buns were served, they bit open the thin bun skin and sipped the delicious warm soup. It was a real pleasure.
Zheng Yubai ate the delicious soup dumplings, and his mood gradually brightened. It was a rare sunny and warm winter day, and he was shopping with two beautiful women, so he temporarily put his troubles behind him and ignored them.
After eating and drinking, the three of them continued their activities and walked around the street again. When Xu Jin and Yu Luo found a shoe store with various novel styles, Zheng Yubai also happened to find someone following them.
There were two people tracking Zheng Yubai and the other two from two directions. They looked very ordinary, the type that would be hard to find in a crowd, and they didn't have any special features. It was hard to describe such ordinary people in words. But such people were the most suitable for tracking spies and other activities.
Zheng Yubai listened to Xu Jin and Yu Luo's questions, but did not pay attention to what kind of shoes they were trying on. He calmly continued to search among the crowd coming and going outside the store, and finally confirmed that there were only two stalkers.
"Who are they? Are they Yao Qian's men..." Zheng Yubai pondered in his mind, and the first suspect was Yao Qian.
After Yao Qian was cheated, he would definitely investigate who had schemed against him. After all, he was the richest man in Jinghai, a big shot who was well connected in both the black and white worlds. Even though he had fallen, he would not give up. Although the life-and-death battle with Gao Fei would be in a month, Zheng Yubai did not think that Yao Qian would be patient until then. With Yao Qian's vengeful character, if he found out what he had done, he would probably fight desperately and take revenge.
The second suspect was the FBI. Caoji had already found out some information that the FBI had been active in Jinghai recently, looking for clues everywhere. The limelight had gradually faded in the past few days, but with the FBI's ability to reach the sky, it was not impossible.
If it wasn't Yao Qian or the FBI, then it could be Killer Twenty-Six and Fang Hongjin. Zheng Yubai thought about how he had made so many enemies and scratched his head helplessly. He looked at the streets outside the window and began to plan how to get away.
After picking out the shoes, Xu Jin and Yu Luo happily paid for the items. When they unceremoniously handed the shoe boxes to Zheng Yubai, Zheng Yubai whispered to them that someone was following them. The two girls listened with a blank expression on their faces. Xu Jin asked Zheng Yubai, "What should we do?"
"It depends on the situation." Zheng Yubai called Cao Ji and asked him to drive to a street corner and wait. Then he took the two girls out of the shoe store, pretending to continue strolling, strolling freely on the street.
The two trackers were obviously quite professional. They moved at a leisurely pace, sometimes close and sometimes distant, and used crowds and buildings to hide their identities. If Zheng Yubai had not developed superhuman sensing abilities from his many years of boxing training, it would have been impossible for him to detect their presence.
There was an alley ahead. Zheng Yubai walked along and whispered to the two girls, "Turn into the alley ahead and keep going. Caoji's car is waiting there. You go back to the apartment first, and I'll follow."
"Can you handle it?" Xu Jin asked worriedly.
"You have to have confidence in me." Zheng Yubai said with a smile.
The three of them came to the alley, Zheng Yubai pretended to tie his shoelaces, handed the things in his hand to the two girls, and squatted down. The two followers immediately found a hiding place and watched from a distance. Just when they thought the three of them would continue to wander around, Xu Jin and Yu Luo suddenly turned into the alley and disappeared.
The two trackers were immediately anxious, but Zheng Yubai was still tying his shoelaces slowly and leisurely, as if it was a very delicate project that would take several hours to complete. The two were anxious, but they did not dare to alarm the target, so they could only activate the communicator and tell other partners to reinforce immediately and monitor all nearby intersections.
After five minutes of hesitation, Zheng Yubai finally tied his shoelaces and stepped into the alley. The two followers did not dare to delay and immediately ran over, flanking the alley from both sides. After exchanging glances, one of them stepped into the alley first.
The alley was not long, and at a glance, one could see the busy scene outside the other exit. But in the narrow alley, there was no sign of Zheng Yubai.
The two men beat their chests and stamped their feet, shouting angrily through the communicator: "We have lost the target, we have lost the target. Have you found anything there?"
"Two female targets were lost, and the male target appeared on Changchun Road, moving quickly from north to south." After receiving the news, other people who had set up a surveillance network nearby immediately sent a message, asking them to go over for reinforcement immediately.
"We've probably been exposed. Let's immediately ask our superiors for permission to close the net." The two men said as they ran towards Changchun Road.
The communicator was silent for a while, and then a voice as cold as iron rang out: "Agree to close the net, don't hurt him."
Following this order, more than 20 ordinary-looking men and women quickly ran towards the target, with Changchun Road as the center. They blocked all the intersections from all directions. Even if Zheng Yubai had wings, he would not be able to fly out of this net.
Zheng Yubai seemed to be walking in the crowd easily, but he was extremely alert. Xu Jin called and said that he was already in Caoji's car and did not find anyone following him, which made him feel relieved. Since Xu Jin and Yu Luo were safe, Zheng Yubai did not plan to escape. He wanted to see who was following him this time and what his intentions were. It was time to solve all the troubles he had caused before.
"Found the target, found the target." A female stalker was the first to discover Zheng Yubai's whereabouts. She disguised herself as a woman pushing a baby stroller, reporting the location to other partners while cautiously approaching Zheng Yubai. The baby stroller she pushed was modified, and there was a hidden mechanism in it, which could shoot out a capture net with a net gun when the target was not prepared, thus capturing the target.
The female stalker quickly approached Zheng Yubai, her finger on the button to launch the net gun, the front of the baby carriage was pointed at Zheng Yubai intentionally or unintentionally, just waiting for the order to act, and then she would act immediately. As for the others, they had also arrived nearby, moving among the crowd, watching Zheng Yubai's every move.
Zheng Yubai seemed not to notice and continued walking with his head down. The female stalker kept looking for an opportunity and stayed three meters behind him.
"Okay..." The cold voice sounded again, issuing the order to take action. He had just said one word when Zheng Yubai, who had not shown any abnormality, suddenly turned around, waved his right hand seemingly unintentionally, and poked the female stalker on the forehead with his index finger.
The female stalker only felt a flash before her eyes, and then her head became dizzy and she fell to the ground involuntarily. She clearly saw Zheng Yubai right in front of her and heard him shouting loudly: "Someone has fainted, call an ambulance." She was conscious but unable to speak or move.
As soon as the female stalker fell, the crowd immediately gathered around. Zheng Yubai's actions just now were very quick and hidden, and almost no one saw it. Seeing someone fall, some enthusiastic passers-by called an ambulance, and some people volunteered to provide first aid. Zheng Yubai quietly mixed into the crowd, bumped into two men who squeezed in, and then left quickly.
The two men had painful expressions on their faces. Seeing Zheng Yubai leaving, they were too weak to take a step. Instead, they covered their abdomens and slowly knelt down.
Seeing people falling to the ground one after another, passers-by didn't know what was going on. Fearing danger, they immediately fled in all directions, making the scene chaotic. Several men who wanted to follow Zheng Yubai were blocked by the crowd. After finally squeezing out, they could not see Zheng Yubai's shadow.
Zheng Yubai was hiding in a small alley not far from the scene of the incident, holding a man in his arms. This man was one of the two people who had followed him at the beginning. Zheng Yubai knocked him unconscious in the chaos and abducted him here.
There was a mess outside, with ordinary people screaming and many followers being swayed by the crowd. For a while, they could not find Zheng Yubai's trace. Zheng Yubai came to a coal shed in the alley, threw the man to the ground, and pressed his thumb on his pubic region. The man was stimulated and woke up drowsily. When he saw Zheng Yubai, he opened his mouth and was about to shout, but Zheng Yubai reached out and grabbed his throat like lightning, and he immediately closed his mouth wisely.
"Who are you?" Zheng Yubai asked straight to the point without any further ado.
The man closed his eyes and said nothing. Zheng Yubai saw that he didn't say anything, so he didn't ask any more questions. He turned him over and pressed him on the honeycomb coal. He first rubbed the coal dust on his face, then pressed his fingers on his tailbone and pressed hard.
The man couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise when his tailbone was stimulated, but before the sound could get out of his throat, Zheng Yubai pinched it again. He couldn't make a sound, and the breath was suffocated in his stomach. Not only did his tailbone hurt, but it was also very numb and itchy. It felt like millions of ants were crawling all over his body, and he felt uncomfortable everywhere. This feeling cannot be described in any words. He endured it for a moment, and would rather have bamboo sticks inserted into his nails, pepper water poured into his eyes, and irons scalding his face than endure this torture.
"Will you tell me or not?" Zheng Yubai placed his fingers on the coccyx again and applied gentle force.
The man couldn't bear it anymore and shouted in a low voice: "I'm telling you, I'm from the Special Affairs Administration."
"Special Affairs Management Bureau?" Zheng Yubai had never heard of this agency and couldn't help but feel puzzled. He didn't remember offending this department, so why would they send someone to follow him
"What's going on?" Zheng Yubai asked again.
The man told the whole story in detail with a sad face. Zheng Yubai then knew the consequences of Yu Luo's mistaken entry into the FBI database. After a brief thought, he knew that the FBI must have had a confrontation with the killer 26 in the villa, and then Fang Hongjin and others were involved. Although these things were not directly related to him, he was also indirectly responsible. From this point of view, it was not ridiculous for the Special Affairs Management Bureau to find him.
"You'd better turn yourself in. The director has arranged thirty good hands. You can't escape." After the man confessed everything, his body was no longer itchy. Only then did he realize that he had leaked the secret. He was afraid and hoped to persuade Zheng Yubai to surrender and make up for his mistake.
"Turn yourself in. What crime have I committed? Did I kill someone or set a fire?" Zheng Yubai asked him.
The man was dumbfounded and could not answer, but he still said: "No one who is targeted by our Special Affairs Bureau has ever escaped."
"Oh?" The stubborn part of Zheng Yubai's character was aroused by these words, and he couldn't help laughing, "In that case, I must be the first." As he said that, he slapped the man on the head, knocked him unconscious, and then dragged him into the pile of honeycomb coal and hid him.
Arriving at the alley entrance, Zheng Yubai looked out. Ordinary people who didn't know what was going on were afraid of unknown dangers, but didn't want to miss the opportunity to watch the excitement, so they gathered in a big circle. The people in the front wanted to take a few steps back, while the people behind tried to lean forward, causing a very chaotic situation. Zheng Yubai looked carefully for a while, found the right opportunity, lowered his head and rushed into the noisy crowd.
Although they tried to hide their bodies, the people from the Special Affairs Management Bureau immediately locked onto Zheng Yubai. In some aspects, their professionalism was indeed impressive. As the message was passed on, several men moved closer to Zheng Yubai.
Zheng Yubai was moving around in the crowd like a loach, and the men were squeezed everywhere by him and gradually dispersed.
Suddenly, a man who was watching the situation from a high place noticed that Zheng Yubai had shrunk his head and disappeared. He hurriedly shouted, "He's crouching down! Don't let him run away while the chaos is going on."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw one of his companions suddenly show a look of fear, then he crouched down and disappeared into the crowd.
"Oh no! He's attacking from the dark!" the man screamed, "Everyone must be careful."
Despite his instructions, more and more companions gathered around, but right under his eyes, Zheng Yubai was like a dragon lurking in the water, jumping out of the water from time to time, dragging his prey into the water in a few seconds, and never to be seen again. The man who was watching was sweating profusely. Although he had performed countless difficult tasks, he felt powerless for the first time.
Zheng Yubai was agile as he moved around in the crowd. Xingyiquan has a special punch for training leg strength. At this moment, he was like a loach. Although he was bent over, he was still as fast as the wind. His already strong waist and leg strength, combined with the light body skills he learned from Xie Chunlai, made him feel like a fish in water. In a short while, he had knocked down four or five people. When the people found that people in the crowd kept falling down and became panic, Zheng Yubai took the opportunity to shout: "Someone is hysterical!" He threw a punch in the air, and the punch force was released, making the air make a "bang" sound. The force of this punch "hitting the cow from a distance" hit the throat of a stalker who rushed forward, causing him to let out a strange "ow".
The people were already very sensitive, and when Zheng Yubai called them out and heard the strange noises, they immediately became confused again. Zheng Yubai shrank his head, took off his clothes, turned them over and put them back on, and quickly dispersed with the crowd.
The crowd dispersed, leaving only the stunned followers who were confused by Zheng Yubai's tricks. They stood alone on the deserted street, only to see several of their companions fainted on the ground, fortunately they were not trampled to death by the chaotic crowd.
"Where are they?" The angry stalkers asked their companions who were watching from a high place through the communicator. The man stared blankly at the crowd going away, not knowing which one of them was Zheng Yubai.
At this moment, the cold voice sounded again: "The target is heading northwest to Yunsong Street. Follow them. I'll be there soon."
"Director!" The followers were surprised. Leng Tie, the director of the Special Affairs Management Bureau, once had a nickname called "Perfect Hunter", which meant that no prey could escape from his hunting. However, since he was promoted to director, Leng Tie has not taken action for many years. Now that he is going to take action personally, the followers are both surprised to see the true face of Lushan, and feel a strong sense of frustration.
Zheng Yubai followed the crowd and ran out of a street, and immediately chose a small alley. He crossed the alley, made a big circle, and soon arrived at another neighborhood far away from the scene of the incident, which was still peaceful.
Zheng Yubai slowed down his pace and moved among the crowd. The people from the Special Affairs Management Bureau should have been left behind, but Zheng Yubai still felt uneasy. The worst thing was that his right eyelid began to twitch again.
A feeling of being spied on came over Zheng Yubai, and he looked around alertly, only to see people coming and going. Everyone was busy with their own things, and no one cared about what Zheng Yubai was doing.
"Am I too sensitive?" Zheng Yubai wondered. He had a very sharp sense of perception from practicing boxing. If someone was staring at him, he would often be alert from the bottom of his heart, and he would be able to quickly judge what happened suddenly. This was also the reason why martial artists' reactions were often much faster than ordinary people.
However, Zheng Yubai's perception did not seem to be very effective at the moment, because although he always felt that someone was watching him from behind, he could not find out where the watcher was.
"It seems I should go see a doctor." Zheng Yubai's right eyelid twitched wildly, and he hesitated as he continued to walk slowly. The feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger. Suddenly, the world of four-eyed double pupils appeared in front of him, and a vague figure was projected behind him. The figure responded to Zheng Yubai's every move, always flashing to a perfect angle when Zheng Yubai looked back. He used the principle of human visual blind spots. Although he was just walking on the street, Zheng Yubai couldn't see his existence.
“So amazing…” Zheng Yubai couldn’t help but feel a little shocked. It was the first time he saw someone with such advanced tracking skills. If he didn’t have the superpower of four eyes and double pupils, he would have no way of finding this person’s whereabouts.
Now that he had discovered the other party's trace, Zheng Yubai's mind flashed with inspiration and he thought of a way to deal with it. He hurriedly took a few steps, rushed into a shopping mall, and weaved in and out among the crowd. He soon came to the stairwell and slipped in.
The man behind him hesitated and did not follow him in. Zheng Yubai unceremoniously opened the window in the stairwell, grabbed the iron railing outside with both hands, and with a little force, the iron bar bent, just enough for one person to pass through. Zheng Yubai took a step, stepped onto the window sill, turned around, passed through the iron railing, and jumped down.
The man behind him heard the sound, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but follow in. When he saw the iron guardrail was broken, he was shocked, climbed onto the windowsill, crawled through the iron guardrail, and jumped down.
"Don't move." As the man fell to the ground, Zheng Yubai's voice sounded behind him.
Zheng Yubai's hand was on the man's carotid artery at the back of his neck. With just a little force, he would fall unconscious.
"Don't move either." The man was not threatened by Zheng Yubai and said coldly, "Look at this."
The UPS pistol in his right hand passed through his left armpit, and the black muzzle was aimed at Zheng Yubai. (To be continued)
