Chapter 60 Trap

The sky gradually darkened.

Near the entrance of East Lake City’s public hospital, Chen Zhipeng and Li Qingping were stopped by a few men who had suddenly appeared.

These men had disheveled hair and injuries on their bodies. It was clear at a glance that they were not people who did normal jobs in the city.

“What are you guys trying to do? I’m Chen Zhipeng from the archives bureau.” Chen Zhipeng directly revealed his identity, hoping that this would cause the other party to have some reservations.

“Don’t worry, we won’t do anything to you. We just want to ask you for a small favor,” one of the men replied as he took out a large brick-sized cell phone from his waist.

“Hello! Hello! Who’s this?” Chen Shaojie’s voice came from the other end of the line. Chen Zhipeng and Li Qingping were both shocked by the voice coming from the phone.

Who were these people?

Why did they have Shaojie’s phone number?

The man placed the phone near his mouth and spoke in a low voice, “Get Chen Yiming to come out of the hospital. We have something to discuss with him.”

“Hey, you guys…” Before he could finish speaking, the man hung up.

In the ward,

Chen Shaojie brought the phone down from his ear after realizing that the other party had already hung up.

His original cell phone had been lost, and the new one was given to him by the leader when he came to visit in the morning.

“What happened?” Chen Yiming asked.

Chen Shaojie’s face had turned pale. The hand holding the phone was trembling.

“Cousin, what should we do? My parents seem to have been kidnapped,” Chen Shaojie said in a trembling voice.

“What’s the situation? Tell me slowly,” Chen Yiming comforted him.

As expected, something had happened.

“I think they told me over the phone to get you to leave,” Chen Shaojie said slowly, word by word.

This was obviously a trap. Chen Shaojie and Chen Yiming both realized it.

Chen Yiming fell silent as he mulled over how he could break out of the situation.

As soon as he arrived at the hospital, he stayed by Chen Shaojie’s side and did not leave for a minute.

If the other party wanted to capture him directly, he would have to go through him first.

Now, the other party clearly wanted to get him away from Chen Shaojie, so he used his second uncle and aunt to threaten him.

If he went to save his second uncle and aunt, he might not be able to catch up to the person who was planning to capture Chen Shaojie when he returned. After all, he was not a professional investigator.

“Go and save my parents first,” Chen Shaojie said. He realized that this was a tricky situation and decided to help Chen Yiming make the decision.

“Try your best to slow them down if anything happens,” Chen Yiming said as he turned to leave.

At the entrance of the hospital, everything was no different from usual as pedestrians walked in and out.

It was time for dinner, and many of the patients’ family members brought their meals to the hospital from home.

Chen Yiming walked out the entrance and saw his second uncle and aunt being restrained a few hundred meters away. They were waiting for him openly instead of hiding.

“I’ve been waiting for you.”

A low voice sounded from behind him.

Chen Yiming turned around and saw a young man standing not far from him.

The young man was about 24 or 25 years old. He was wearing a black cloak and had long hair that fell to his shoulders. His face was dark, as if there was a deep grudge between them.

“Are you guys from Professor Fu’s laboratory?” Chen Yiming asked calmly, trying to see if they would reveal their identities.

Han Fei didn’t reply. He just stared intently at Chen Yiming’s face.

Ever since he had broken through to the sixth transformation, it had been a long time since anyone dared to answer him directly and not give him any face.

A kid who had undergone three transformations was actually so calm. Even if he was a core disciple of the Mantis Snake Sword School, did he really think that no one would dare to kill him?

“Do you think that with the Mantis Snake Sword School backing you, no one will dare to attack you?” Han Fei said coldly.

In his eyes, the other party was already a dead man. Suddenly, he had the thought of messing with him.

“What are you trying to say?” Chen Yiming asked in confusion.

His second uncle and aunt had already been restrained, and he had also followed the other party’s instructions.

The other party did not attack him immediately, and there was no disturbance from the hospital ward. Even his second uncle and aunt were unharmed.

“Xu Xuezhen is my wife. How dare you kill her yesterday? How do you want to die?” Han Fei gritted his teeth.

When Chen Yiming heard this, he immediately thought of the woman in the black dress whom he had stabbed to death after secretly learning the Water Splitting Sword Technique.

Unexpectedly, killing that woman had lured out the man that the woman had belonged to.

Just as the two of them were exchanging words, an explosion rang out from the hospital.

“Boom!”

This was the signal that Han Fei and Gan Shasha had agreed on.

Han Fei leaped into the air and threw a punch at Chen Yiming’s face.

His fist was not big and seemed to be no different from others who practiced fist techniques, but it was extremely fast.

Several streams of air appeared around his fist. This was the spiral force unique to the Mountain Splitting Fist Technique.

The spiral force could bypass defense and pierce through the opponent’s body like a drill.

Chen Yiming had been prepared for the sudden attack. He kicked at the ground and dodged to the side.

He had also undergone six transformations, so his judgment was naturally quite good. He instantly estimated the other party’s level.

In order not to reveal his true strength publicly, he could only rely on his technique and to barely dodge the attack.

At this moment, there was no one at the entrance of the hospital.

Everyone was scared off by the explosion and the commotion caused by the fight between the two of them.

Chen Yiming dodged Han Fei’s punch. Without stopping, he charged towards the area around the explosion.

Along the way, he specially chose areas with densely packed buildings to use as obstacles to avoid Han Fei’s attacks.

He planned to keep an eye on the people who were capturing Chen Shaojie first, then find an opportunity to secretly kill Han Fei later.

In the blink of an eye, one was chasing while the other was escaping. Along the way, many houses were continuously destroyed by Han Fei’s punches.

“Kid, do you only know how to run?” Han Fei chased after him, cursing loudly.

Although Chen Yiming had only reached the third transformation, he was extremely fast and agile.

By deliberately using the complicated terrain in the city to hide, Han Fei could not do anything to him.

Chen Yiming ignored him. From the corner of his eye, he observed the area around the ward where Chen Shaojie was staying.

The person in charge of the capture had deliberately created an explosion to interfere with the line of sight. However, Chen Shaojie had a special transformation ability, so it was not difficult for him to create a small commotion if he resisted.

Furthermore, the other party wanted to capture Chen Shaojie alive and would definitely not kill him. Chen Shaojie was not completely unable to put up some resistance.

As long as he made a disturbance, Chen Yiming would be able to lock onto his position.

In the hospital ward, Chen Shaojie was safe and sound.

Gan Shasha was surrounded by three martial arts experts from the military. A group of ordinary soldiers also had their guns pointed at her subordinates.

The martial arts experts from the military were dressed in casual clothes. They had blended in with the ordinary people before they made their move.

All three of them had undergone professional training, unlike ordinary martial arts practitioners who did not know how to hide their aura at all.

Clearly, this was a trap set by the military. They were using Chen Shaojie as bait to lure the people from Professor Fu’s laboratory into trying to capture him.

Han Fei had coincidentally avoided the trap with his plan to kill Chen Yiming, so Gan Shasha was left to face the three martial arts experts alone.
