Super Doctor - Chapter 192
“Xu… be careful, someone is approaching rapidly from below… high energy fluctuation… don’t move…” With Little Knife’s urgent warning, Xu Ze’s heart tightened. He immediately took a light breath and held it, preventing any external leakage of his aura that might draw attention, and remained seated without moving.
In all the time he had had Little Knife, this was the first time he had received such a warning. High energy fluctuation… he wasn’t entirely sure what that specifically meant, but anyone who could make Little Knife this tense was definitely not ordinary.
Fortunately, Xu Ze had chosen a good spot, right at the edge of the cliff, surrounded by leaves. Unless the person came up from below the cliff and ran right into him, there was absolutely no way he would be discovered.
Just two or three seconds after Xu Ze held his breath, he heard a “whooshing” sound from below the cliff. Then, a figure clad in black emerged at an incredible speed from the cliff edge a few meters away, flipped, pushed off the ground with one hand, and sprang forward.
However, he did not expect that there was a car lying across the road not far ahead. The dark shadow was startled and in panic he reached out to support himself on the car, using the force to rush over.
However, just as the first figure passed over, another person quickly emerged from below the cliff. With a powerful kick-off, this second person leaped over Xu Ze’s sports car and charged towards the first black figure.
Watching the two figures flash past, Xu Ze waited quietly for a long time until there was no more sound from below the cliff before finally letting out a soft sigh of relief. The agility displayed by the two during the chase had genuinely surprised him.
Judging by their speed, Xu Ze was certain these two were at least as skilled as he was, if not more. He definitely wouldn’t dare climb such a high and steep cliff himself. He asked Little Knife, “Were those two much stronger than me?”
“Judging by their energy fluctuations, probably a bit stronger, but not by much…” Little Knife stated with certainty.
“Not by much?” Hearing this, Xu Ze felt slightly relieved. That was good. It would be quite a blow if the first internal energy experts he encountered were vastly superior to him.
“Mmm… Based on energy fluctuations, they aren’t much stronger than you. The first one is probably quite similar to you, the second one is slightly stronger…” Little Knife replied with a laugh.
Reassured by Little Knife’s words, Xu Ze stood up, pushed aside the branches, and slowly stepped out. He sighed inwardly: “The capital area truly has hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I’ve only been in Beijing for a few days and already encountered two internal energy experts. It’s much more impressive than our Xing City…”
He pressed his remote to get into the car and leave, when suddenly he heard a loud “Clang!” from his car window, giving him a huge fright.
Then, the two black figures burst out from the woods opposite and started fighting fiercely, their blows sounding like “Pip! Pak!”
Xu Ze blinked, watching the two fighting as if no one else was around. He finally remembered the sound from his car window—it was probably damaged, and most likely by one of these two.
Forgetting about watching the fight for a moment, he hurried over to the right side of his car, his heart aching.
Looking at it, he felt frustrated. Even though it wasn’t technically his car, he still cared for it. Under the faint moonlight, he saw a two-inch-long small knife stuck in his right side window glass…
“Dammit… which little bastard did this?” Xu Ze pulled out the small knife, looked at the hole and the cracks radiating from it on the window glass, and a wave of anger surged through him. He stepped in front of the car and roared at the two fighters.
The two combatants paused for a moment upon hearing the shout, but quickly resumed their fierce fight, ignoring him.
“Mother#$%&…” Xu Ze, seeing that they completely ignored him, was so angry his eyes turned red. You fight your own fight, but why damage my car? This one knife strike would cost over ten thousand yuan to fix!
While he was fuming, he suddenly heard one of them shout, “Be careful!”
“Ah!” Sensing something wrong, Xu Ze quickly dodged to the side. A streak of sharp wind brushed past him, followed by another “Thud!” sound.
His heart sank. He turned to look… and was utterly dumbfounded. Before, only the glass had a hole. Now, even the car door had a hole pierced through it.
With a trembling hand, Xu Ze pulled out the second small knife. He felt like crying but had no tears. This strike would cost far more than ten thousand yuan…
“Little Knife… which little bastard threw that?” Xu Ze gripped the two throwing knives, glared at the two entangled figures, and asked coldly.
Little Knife deeply sympathized with Xu Ze’s predicament. He knew how much Xu Ze cared for the car and that he was furious now, so he didn’t dare provoke him further. He quickly replied, “That… that guy in black with the mask, the one who knows some ancient ninjutsu… his energy level is similar to yours…”
“These throwing knives were launched by that guy. Genuine willow-leaf darts, coated with some kind of neurotoxin…”
“Ancient ninjutsu? Japanese? Poisoned?” Shocked, Xu Ze looked at the two knives in his hand, almost dropping them. “These things are poisoned?”
“It’s fine… as long as your palm isn’t cut and bleeding, it’s okay…” Little Knife hurriedly explained.
Hearing this, Xu Ze didn’t drop the knives. He said angrily, “So that guy is really a Jap?”
“Mmm… According to your current national divisions, he should be Japanese…” Little Knife had already analyzed the characteristics of the two fighters and stated decisively based on appearance and features.
“Then the other one is Chinese, right?” Xu Ze blinked, confirming.
“Right… a genuine Chinese, very high genetic purity… also the one who warned you to be careful earlier…”
While they were still communicating, one of the fighters shouted, “You there, with the car! If you don’t want to die, leave now!”
Xu Ze narrowed his eyes. The brightness in his vision gradually increased as Little Knife considerately activated the night vision function to assist him…
“Mmm… that guy looks like a ninja, all in black with his head covered, clearly no good. And he damaged my car!” Xu Ze analyzed, full of indignation.
“The other one seems pretty decent, after all, he’s one of us, knows to warn me…” Xu Ze looked at the handsome young man in casual clothes and nodded with some comfort.
That handsome young man was none other than Mr. Lin, who had come to Beijing to save the soldier. Today, with the cooperation of the National Security Third Section, he had finally located this Japanese spy, but still failed to capture him immediately, allowing him to break through the encirclement and escape.
Mr. Lin had taken the lead in the pursuit, running for three or four li before finally catching up to his target here. Little did he expect that in the dead of night, in this remote wilderness, there would be someone else.
Seeing Xu Ze still standing there watching the spectacle, Mr. Lin grew anxious and shouted angrily again, “Don’t you value your life? Get out of here!”
Hearing Mr. Lin’s shout, Xu Ze was about to step forward and help him subdue the Japanese guy. However, the Japanese spy, finding himself at a disadvantage and unable to escape, saw a ready-made shield and naturally decided to use him.
Taking advantage of Mr. Lin’s momentary distraction, he disengaged from the fight and lunged towards Xu Ze.
Seeing the mix of triumph and cruelty in the other’s small eyes, and his agile, tiger-like pounce aimed at capturing him, Xu Ze smiled…
“Your energy level is similar to mine… and you think you can take me hostage?”
With a flick of his wrist, he sent the two throwing knives in his hand shooting towards the Japanese man in black, who was rapidly closing in.
The black-clad man was already very close to Xu Ze, only three or four meters away. At such close range, the two knives thrown with Xu Ze’s full strength were extremely difficult to dodge.
Seeing the cold smile in Xu Ze’s eyes and the two rapidly approaching projectiles, the black-clad man’s pupils dilated instantly. He realized he had underestimated the situation—this harmless-looking young man was actually also an expert…
He desperately twisted his body in mid-air, shrinking into a ball, barely avoiding one knife. The other knife, however, grazed his thigh, causing a minor wound.
Feeling the pain in his thigh, the black-clad man’s heart sank. He had a bad feeling; today he might really be done for.
His luck had been terrible. First, he encountered a mainland expert and had been entangled until now, unable to shake him off. Finally managing to flee into these mountains, escape seemed within reach… and now, in this remote wilderness, he ran into another expert. How unlucky… Since when did China have so many experts, and all so young?
After falling to the ground in panic, the man in black planned to turn around and escape, but Xu Ze would not give him the chance. He jumped over and slapped the man in black on the shoulder.
“Since you’re a Jap and you damaged my car, did you really think you could escape so easily?” Xu Ze held nothing back. As the other man dodged his palm strike, Xu Ze swiftly followed up with a ruthless kick aimed at the man’s groin. When dealing with scum like this, there was no need for restraint.
However, the black-clad man was extremely agile. His body suddenly twisted, surprisingly evading Xu Ze’s potentially fatal kick. Then, with a swift wave of his hand, he threw two small spheres.
Xu Ze was startled. The two spheres landed with a “Poof!” and released two thick clouds of smoke that quickly spread around the area…
“Smoke bomb? Planning to escape under cover of smoke?” Watching the smoke rapidly envelop the black-clad man’s figure, Xu Ze finally remembered this common move from ninja movies…
