Chapter 62: The Headless Horseman (1)
Translator: 549690339
“What’s going on?”
Even though the man was escaping nimbly from the front, his attention was still on the back, especially when Lu Xin jumped into the building pit from the end of the Broken Road. The man was shocked and wondered if the man would fall to his death. However, Lu Xin’s clumsy figure suddenly became unusually agile. His body tensed up and he jumped into the air. Then, he grabbed a steel bar and quickly bounced forward.
The speed was so terrifying that they were two to three meters away from each other in an instant.
The man in front of her was shocked. He immediately sped up, like a ghost in the night, and rushed forward.
Two figures, one in front and one behind, were in hot pursuit in the night.
Sometimes, it appeared under the light, and sometimes, it was hidden in the darkness.
Whether it was an electric pole, an apartment building, or an abandoned high-rise building in front of them, their speed was not affected at all.
Sometimes they ran on the ground, sometimes they jumped directly to the side of the building, ignoring gravity and flying.
This man was obviously serious, and his figure was extremely strange.
He stretched out his hands and bent his legs slightly. With a pull and pull, his speed suddenly increased a lot.
However, Lu Xin had already clenched his teeth and caught up with him. He was even more agile than the man. He could easily pass through the messy wires in the air and the narrow gaps. He was like a spider, or rather, a ghost that was intermittently visible. He was like a bloodthirsty prey that was being chased.
Even the light that shone on his face looked extremely strange.
Under the light, his face was still serious and calm.
When he rushed to the next light, his pupils had turned dark and his face had a playful smile.
They were both extremely fast, but Lu Xin was clearly faster.
Just now, when his sister couldn’t make it in time, the other party had easily left him behind by almost a hundred meters. But now, this distance was getting closer and closer. Three meters, five meters, ten meters … In Lu Xin’s eyes, the other party’s figure was becoming clearer and clearer.
However, this area was originally close to the edge of the high-wall city.
As they chased, they quickly approached the tall walls of the city.
There were no more buildings in front of them. It was a 1000-meter long open space with only wild grass growing.
Further away, there was a tall wall that stood in the air, as if it had blocked half of the night sky.
Without hesitation, the figure dashed into the wasteland and rushed toward the high wall.
Now, the distance between Lu Xin and his opponent was only about 60 meters. Without affecting his agility and speed, he raised his gun without hesitation and fired a few shots at the man.
No matter how accurate the bullet was, it would slow down after traveling 50 meters.
In particular, the man’s figure was like a civet cat. As he swerved and slanted in the wilderness, the bullets missed, only splashing up pieces of grass.
Further away, on the high wall, four to five hundred meters to the left, and more than a thousand meters to the right, there were dazzling lights shining at the same time. They were shooting in their direction. It should be the patrolling soldiers on the high wall who had heard the gunshots and immediately reacted.
In the dark night, the two lights were like two extremely bright swords.
It was a pity that even though the beam of light was tens of meters long, the wasteland was too big.
The figure quickly reached the high wall.
It was wide and thick, large enough for an entire Army to run on. The entire wall was smooth and polished, but in the man’s eyes, it was as easy to climb as a ladder. He easily climbed up the wall and went straight to the top.
He saw that the other party was about to rush out of the high wall and escape out of the city.
“Sister, kill him!”
Lu Xin gritted his teeth and made his decision.
He quickly reloaded the gun and threw it into the air.
From his point of view, his sister had jumped into the air. Her small body was still in the posture of rushing forward, and her two small hands had already caught the revolver that had just been reloaded. Then, she aimed at the figure who was climbing up the high wall at an astonishing speed. It was almost impossible to see clearly. A strange smile appeared on her small face covered in black.
Then, she fired a few shots.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The recoil of the revolver almost sent her weightless body flying back.
However, the three bullets flew forward with extreme precision.
One of them hit the spot where the figure was leaning against.
One of them hit the lower part of his body.
However, the third one was extremely accurate. It even took into account his speed as he shot up and shot straight at his head.
In Lu Xin’s eyes, he could even feel the bullet slowing down. It was flying toward him at a slow but precise speed, as if there was some kind of magic to this slowness. The person who was climbing up the high wall suddenly stopped and turned around subconsciously. Under the dark sunglasses, he seemed to have a surprised and surprised expression.
Then, with a ” PA ” sound, the bullet hit his neck.
Blood spurted out, and his neck was torn apart. His entire head flew out, and his body hung on the high wall alone.
Lu Xin was taken aback by this scene.
His revolver used ordinary bullets, which were less powerful. It was only because it was relatively simple to make that it was popular in high-wall cities.
He didn’t think that such a shot would be able to kill this person, especially if it broke his neck.
Perhaps it was because his body was more fragile than ordinary people?
Lu Xin didn’t hesitate to catch his falling sister and rush forward.
However, he had only taken two steps when the headless corpse that was hanging on the high wall with only one arm suddenly trembled. Then, with its hands and feet crossed, it quickly scuttled up and flipped over the high wall in an instant.
Lu Xin’s heart sank as he hurriedly made his way up the wall.
In the wilderness outside the wall, a motorcycle roared and a beam of light flew away.
By the time he had climbed up the wall, the motorcycle, which had its throttle fully turned on, had already whizzed forward for 70 to 80 meters.
Lu Xin’s vision had also become extremely sharp due to the excellent moonlight.
He saw that there was only a piece of flesh on the neck of the figure on the motorcycle. It was empty.
The headless corpse rode the motorcycle and quickly disappeared into the depths of the wilderness.
Lu Xin suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.
“Who’s there?”
“Raise your hands immediately, or I’ll shoot .
On both sides of the high wall, heavy and fast footsteps could be heard. A flashlight was being waved by the hand, and the high-intensity light source was coming from it.
It was so white that it was blinding.
Lu Xin could sense that there were many soldiers pointing their guns at him from behind the blinding Lights.
“There’s an id in my pocket!”
Lu Xin said in a deep voice as he raised his hands to show them his gun.
He used his eyes to stop his sister. Perhaps it was because he was more serious now, but his sister squatted by the side obediently.
Someone stepped forward and quickly took out a document from the left pocket of Lu Xin’s shirt and handed it to the officer beside him.
Then, they heard a burst of panic. After a while, all the guns were put away in
unison.
The blinding light from the flashlight had also disappeared, leaving only the light from the long-range flashlight.
Captain of the 4th patrol, Xie Chen!
A man who looked like a senior officer came up to Lu Xin and saluted him. He then handed back his identification, “”May I know what happened?”
Lu Xin kept the documents and heaved a sigh of relief.. “I have to make a call!”
