Confess honestly! Did you deliberately not take me and go out to have fun by yourself?
Lin Wan twisted hard, making Lu Zheng gasp in cold air while she herself almost could not hold back.
I am innocent! Lu Zheng stretched out both hands to steady the bowl and stabilise his body.
I finished my business at noon, planned to grab a burger and come back, but I happened to run into white policemen enforcing on a black person.
Lu Zheng said helplessly, I was just watching the excitement from across the street in a shop, quite far away, but two policemen came in to buy burgers and insisted on checking my ID.
Lin Wan tutted, You must have looked too calm.
As expected from a criminal police officer, she guessed right with one try, so Lu Zheng could only nod and admit, I really could not bring myself to lie on the ground.
The amusement in Lin Wan’s eyes grew stronger, then she twisted her waist heavily.
Hiss.
Then why did you disappear so quickly? It felt like it started strong but ended weakly to me. No grand climax or conclusion.
I already shot down a helicopter, and that is not grand? Do you really want me to wipe out a whole SWAT team? Reality is not a movie after all.
Lu Zheng said helplessly, I still want to live a leisurely life. I do not want to mess up the real world or shatter everyone’s worldview. If I went up against a country alone on live TV, public opinion would explode.
Lin Wan thought about it and really did not know how things would develop next. Many people would probably guess towards biochemical warriors.
So I have not decided yet whether to show up or how to do it without making a huge fuss. Even if it gets big, at most it would stir up some X-Files stuff. It is not convenient to show off in public directly.
Lin Wan nodded, Alright, you make sense, but if something like this happens next time, remember to take me!
Lu Zheng’s mouth curved, That depends on whether you can win this time.
Underestimating me!?
…
Two hours later, Lin Wan lay weakly on the bed, not even wanting to lift a finger.
Take me next time~
Fine, fine, fine, I will take you!
Hehe…
In the afterglow chat, Lin Wan pulled up the wanted notice from the International Criminal Police’s headquarters in the Lighthouse Country and showed it to Lu Zheng.
A portrait photo similar to Yuan Jing by eight or nine points appeared before Lu Zheng.
As you expected, everyone takes this incident seriously but has not elevated it to a strategic level.
This is a photo restored from surveillance videos and technical means. Lin Wan said, No matching personnel found in existing databases, and several similar-looking ones have been ruled out.
It would be a ghost if they could find it, unless they could cross over to the Great Jing Dynasty.
So…
So the Lighthouse Country suspects the target had plastic surgery and has classified him as a terrorist.
Lu Zheng shrugged. Looks like I cannot bring Yuan Jing to the modern world in the future.
This also reminded Lu Zheng that for future disguises, it was better to randomly turn into an ordinary passerby to avoid trouble later.
Any other news? Lu Zheng felt the smoothness and continued asking.
None. Lin Wan said, The police have turned the Curry Building inside out with no findings. They are still combing through streets in Miami, trying to find you.
Keep up the effort! Go for it!
Lin Wan could not help it and let out a chuckle, You are too mean.
Also, these videos have been brought to the domestic net. Take a look at the guesses here.
I saw them.
At this moment, Lu Zheng and Lin Wan lay side by side, each with a phone in hand, just like an ordinary modern couple.
Lu Zheng was scrolling short videos, which naturally included related ones. He opened the comments, full of awesome, big shot, top ace agent and the like.
Lu Zheng could not help looking at Lin Wan, It has not raised suspicions, right?
Lin Wan shook her head, We analysed these videos this afternoon. The conclusion is sharpshooter, but the catch-the-gun-and-shoot-helicopter moment was pure luck.
Lu Zheng nodded.
But even so, from the car chase, shooting, and dodging RPGs, it shows the level of a top human agent.
Lin Wan said, After our detailed analysis and behavioural pattern judgement, we have some guesses about your identity.
Lu Zheng was very curious, Who am I?
You come from the SEALs or Green Berets, then got selected into an intelligence organisation, either CIA or NSA, executed many missions worldwide, rich in combat experience, definitely killed countless. Lin Wan said.
Lu Zheng, …
Then you probably did dirty work for some big shot and were to be silenced. Although you escaped, all your records were erased, turning you into a ghost.
Lu Zheng was speechless, Your analysts are part-time scriptwriters, right?
You came to Miami to sneak out to Cuba, either your trail was found or it was a coincidence.
But that does not matter. Anyway, after exposure, you had to go on a killing spree, made a huge scene in Miami, embarrassed the Lighthouse Country internationally.
Then? Then what? Lu Zheng was a bit curious about his follow-up story.
Lin Wan held back a laugh and continued, According to analysis, you are definitely not in the Curry Building now. Either killed by your backer or quietly escaped. As for whether you are hiding in Miami or already sneaked out, it is unclear.
You should fire that analyst soon. If they really hit a case later, they might lead you all into a ditch.
Lu Zheng said, All classic Hollywood tropes. Clearly watched too many movies.
Lin Wan could not help smacking Lu Zheng, There is my analysis in there too.
Your what analysis?
The part about you definitely not being in the Curry Building is my analysis. Lin Wan said.
Lu Zheng’s eyes widened, That needs analysis?
Of course, because I am also a top expert. Lin Wan said proudly, So they asked my opinion on what I would do in that situation.
What would you do?
Lin Wan said, Of course, get out immediately. Why give them time to prepare and set up defences?
How to get out?
Through the sewers. Lin Wan shrugged, Is not that how it is in movies?
Lu Zheng, …
Lin Wan laughed, You know, art comes from life. The Lighthouse Country’s sewers have saved quite a few criminals’ lives.
Lin Wan sneered, The sewers in the Lighthouse Country are a mix of fish and dragons, home to who knows how many homeless addicts and criminals. That is the real lawless land.
Lu Zheng could only shake his head and say nothing.
The Lighthouse Country’s sewer culture shows hints in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and various movies, anime, and games feature sewers.
The sewers give a feeling of being big and advanced infrastructure on one hand, chaotic and mixed on the other.
As for which feeling dominates in national sentiment, it depends on the receiver’s own national strength.
Alright, the analysis is pretty good! Lu Zheng nodded seriously.
Not just us reached this conclusion. As far as I know, several countries did, including the Lighthouse Country itself.
The Lighthouse Country itself?
Lin Wan nodded, According to intel, several intelligence departments have started self-checks to see if this is one of their own.
Why?
Lin Wan said, Because you showed strong combat ability. If it is not too serious, they might not give up on you, especially since you are Asian. If they could send you to… heh…
Lu Zheng’s eyes flashed, Imperialism’s heart to destroy us never dies!
Lin Wan could not help laughing, Unfortunately, they are doomed to be disappointed.
