Chapter 2: The Investigator Who Failed to Infiltrate and Was Captured_2

His grip on the collar gradually loosened. He had to admit, he was tempted. After all, killing a police officer was more harmful than beneficial. "You've convinced me," Chongtian Koji exhaled, "but that's not enough, I want to see your sincerity." As he finished speaking, he waved his hand. Two subordinates at the door immediately controlled the man in the middle from both sides, immobilizing him. "What... Boss, what are you doing!" The man in the middle was shocked and struggled as he shouted, "You bastards, let me go!" "Mitsuo, I've treated you well, but you're really too greedy." Chongtian Koji turned and walked up to him, grabbing his ear harshly, "To think you went behind my back, collaborating with the Noguchi Group's bastard to betray the organization's interests! Originally, I planned to use you to kill these two police officers and then deal with you, but it seems you have other uses now." "Ah! Boss, spare me, please spare me! I won't dare to do it again," Mitsuo, realizing the implication, pleaded with a pale face. Chongtian scoffed, letting go of Mitsuo's ear. He then pulled a dagger from a subordinate's embrace, cut the ropes binding Aoyama Xiu Xin, and tossed the knife at his feet, "Kill him, and I'll believe you." Aoyama Xiu Xin glanced at him. Then he bent down and picked up the dagger from the ground. "Mr. Aoyama, don't! Don't do it! It's illegal!" Asai Ayumi shouted anxiously. Aoyama Xiu Xin remained unmoved. He walked toward Mitsuo, dagger in hand. "Don't come closer! Stay away!" Mitsuo screamed in panic, pleading tearfully, "Boss, spare me! I realize my mistake!" "Mr. Aoyama, stop! Aoyama Xiu Xin I order you to stop! You'll regret this!" The pleas of Mitsuo and the increasingly shrill screams of Asai Ayumi echoed in the basement. Chongtian Koji watched the scene with a smirk. And just then, something unexpected happened. As Aoyama Xiu Xin passed by Chongtian, he suddenly turned around, grabbed Chongtian's hair and yanked it downwards, and with his other hand, raised the dagger high above Chongtian's horrified eyes and plunged it sharply downwards. The blade entered the flesh with a squelch, leaving only the handle visible. Those who often kill know that killing looks simple, but delivering a fatal blow requires skill. Fortunately, Aoyama was a professional in his former life. He had been worried that this body couldn't keep up with his mental response, but once he began, he found his strength and speed were superhuman—perhaps a mutation caused by traversing to this world? However, there was no time to ponder these things now. Aoyama Xiu Xin pulled out the dagger, blood splattering. Chongtian instinctively raised his hand to cover the wound on his neck, but blood kept seeping through his fingers. He slowly turned his head with a look of unwillingness, wanting to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood bubbles gushed from his throat. The abrupt turn of events stunned everyone. "Boss!" The two subordinates holding Mitsuo were both shocked and angry, hastily reaching for the guns at their waists. But Aoyama Xiu Xin was faster; as he dropped the dagger, he pulled out Chongtian Koji's gun from his waist, slid it along his thigh to chamber it, and raised his hand to pull the trigger. "Bang, bang, bang, bang!" With four gunshots, two loyal subordinates fell to the ground dead, their guns slipping from their hands. Aoyama Xiu Xin then moved his gun to point it at the scared senseless Mitsuo, asking, "What place is this?" "Kiku Love Club! It's the basement of Kiku Love Club!" Mitsuo blurted out hastily, then immediately knelt down with a thump, trembling as he said, "Don't kill me, I surrender, I..." "Bang!" A gunshot sounded, and he fell to the ground. Asai Ayumi stood in a daze, watching this scene unfold. Her voluptuous chest heaved with her breaths, and two buttons from her shirt had popped open, revealing a hint of light green lace and soft, almost translucent skin. "Police Chief, you've been wronged," Aoyama Xiu Xin immediately pocketed his gun and quickly walked over to Asai Ayumi, bowing to her before untying the ropes around her. Asai Ayumi was still in shock for a long time and only came to her senses when the ropes were removed. She pursed her moist red lips and asked, "Why did you kill him?" "Hmm?" Aoyama Xiu Xin was instantly stunned. Asai Ayumi stood up and pushed him away, pointing at Mitsuo's body and angrily accused, "He had already surrendered, why did you still shoot! You're violating police ethics! You're committing premeditated murder!" Aoyama Xiu Xin was fucking stunned; I killed in self-defense to save you, and now you accuse me of killing a criminal? "You saved me, and I'm grateful, but I will report your act of premeditated murder..." Asai Ayumi said, her head down as she began rebuttoning her shirt. Suddenly, her voice stopped abruptly. Because a gun was pressed to her head. The cold touch of the gun's muzzle made Asai Ayumi shiver. She slowly lifted her head in disbelief, staring at Aoyama Xiu Xin and shouted angrily, "Are you insane? What are you doing? I order you to put the gun down immediately!" seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Police Chief, why didn't you dare to order them just now?" Aoyama Xiu Xin asked coldly, then mocked, "Is it because you knew they had the guts to kill you, but thought I wouldn't?" Asai Ayumi dared not speak anymore, her face, recently flushed, turned deathly pale again because she felt that Aoyama Xiu Xin was really willing to kill her to keep her quiet. "Pick up the knife on the ground and stab that man called Mitsuo," said Aoyama Xiu Xin, his tone firm. Asai Ayumi glared at him through gritted teeth, unmoved. Aoyama Xiu Xin made a motion to pull the trigger. Asai Ayumi then slowly bent down, her hands shaking as she picked up the knife, and under the threat of the gun, she walked step by step to Mitsuo's body, knelt down but hesitated to act. "Stab it in!" Aoyama Xiu Xin commanded. "Ah!" Asai Ayumi screamed as she closed her eyes, her pale hands thrust the knife down into Mitsuo's chest, then stumbled backward and fell to the ground, completely in tears. "Heh!" Aoyama Xiu Xin sneered, crouching down to pinch her cheek and said, "And here I thought you were so law-abiding that you'd rather die than break legal bounds, what a hypocritical woman." Asai Ayumi's face turned intervals of blue and white, filled with anger, humiliation, and shame, she cried silently, saying nothing. When the knife isn't at your neck, nobody knows how unafraid of death they really are. "That knife has your fingerprints, if you dare to accuse me, you won't escape either," Aoyama Xiu Xin said, then leaned in with a sneer, "Asai Police Chief, you wouldn't want to disgrace the Asakai family either." "Get away from me, you bastard!" Asai Ayumi pushed him away, her eyes filled with venom as she cursed. "Bitch!" Annoyed from being pushed, Aoyama Xiu Xin angrily cursed, grabbed her hair, and yanked her face close, "I can hold this over you for a lifetime!" Ignoring the heartbroken and tear-stricken Asai Ayumi, he coldly released her and walked over to pick up Chongtian Koji's cell phone to call the police.
