Chapter 2989: Chapter 2989: Central Guards Brigade, Assemble!

"Then his role can only be used to threaten the Central Guards Brigade." The driver said with some regret.

"As long as we catch him, we can get the ore back, and that’s my goal."

"But he’s very capable, and it would be a pity not to kill him."

"If we can catch him once, we can catch him a second time." Kidd approved:

"However, he is indeed very formidable. If given another ten years, he might become the second Lin Jingzhan, though he’s still a bit lacking now."

After a brief conversation, Kidd said nothing more, quietly watching the window, waiting for Lin Yi to be brought out.

But after five or six minutes passed with no sound from inside, Kidd frowned.

Instinctively, Kidd glanced at his watch.

The seconds hand spun quickly, yet in his eyes, it was like an eternity.

When it completed another circle, his expression changed slightly.

"Let’s go!"

The driver was visibly stunned, not understanding why Kidd was giving such an order, thinking he must have misheard.

"Let’s go!"

After confirming he hadn’t misheard, the driver instinctively started the car, ready to leave.

Bang bang—

Just then, two low sounds rang out.

Both the front left and rear left tires of the car were blown out, and trying to start was now just a fantasy.

The driver’s face also changed, realizing something was wrong.

Kidd’s face darkened, like the pitch-black night.

"The game’s over, I won the bet."

Lin Yi walked out of the house, approaching Kidd step by step.

And stopped about five or six meters away.

Kidd remained seated in the car, not moving.

He was well aware that there was a black gun aimed at him from the shadows.

He was still at a disadvantage.

"Mr. Kidd..."

The subordinate who was driving was somewhat panicked.

Completely unable to understand why this had happened!

But instinctively, he pulled out his own gun and unlocked it.

"Don’t be nervous, our people are on their way." Kidd spoke calmly, even with a faint smile.

Soon, the sound of an engine came from afar, getting closer.

The driver’s tense nerves were somewhat relieved, but Kidd remained unmoved.

Soon, two approaching cars stopped next to the house, and six people got out, armed and aiming at Lin Yi.

"Haha..."

Kidd chuckled, then opened the car door and got out.

The distance between the two men was less than five meters, standing face to face.

But there was no palpable tension between them, as if neither intended to kill the other.

"This was likely something you arranged long ago, indeed very impressive." Kidd approved.

"Because you are smarter than I imagined, even figuring out my whereabouts." Lin Yi said with a smile:

"It’s been a long time since I’ve encountered someone as interesting as you."

"So you gambled that I would definitely come today."

"No, I was just trying my luck, but you didn’t disappoint me; you fell for it so easily." Lin Yi smiled and said:

"But I think it must be that other aspects pressured you, otherwise you wouldn’t rush to succeed and would have made the plan more perfect."

"None of that matters, failure is failure."

Kidd shrugged indifferently.

"But as long as I want, you still can’t escape. Dare to use yourself as bait, then you must pay the price."

"If I can drag you to die with me, it’s not a loss." Lin Yi said:

"But I know you don’t dare to shoot; as a smart person, I believe you wouldn’t risk your life for something like this."

Kidd said no more; there was a silent standoff between the two sides.

"Really impressive, it’d be even better if you were one of us."

"But there is no ’if’ in this world, is there?"

Bravo, bravo—

Kidd clapped with a smile.

"Put down your guns, let him go."

Lin Yi shook his finger, "First meeting, at least send me off, that’s basic courtesy, don’t you think?"

Step by step, Lin Yi walked toward Kidd, placing a scalpel at his neck.

But the latter remained unfazed and unhurried, as if he hadn’t seen the scalpel at all.

At the same time, the Anglo people aimed their weapons at Lin Yi’s head.

Both sides were at a tense silent standoff.

As long as one person pulled the trigger accidentally, it might have catastrophic consequences.

"Your demands really are many, just like your father, not afraid of death at all."

"If afraid of death, I wouldn’t come to the Central Guards Brigade."

"Put down the guns, I’ll send him off."

Hearing Kidd’s words, the sidehands beside him cautiously put down their guns.

But their eyes remained fixed on Lin Yi, to prevent a surprise attack.

Lin Yi turned his head, Liu Hong walked out from inside, heading toward the driver’s seat.

Lin Yi took Kidd hostage, slowly moving toward the back seat.

Suddenly!

Liu Hong sensed something was wrong, suddenly widening his eyes, "Get down!"

While shouting, Liu Hong leaped toward Lin Yi.

Bam!

A scorching bullet ripped through the silent air, shooting straight at Lin Yi.

But Liu Hong’s instinctively faster reaction directly hit his own abdomen!

Lin Yi’s head buzzed.

He hadn’t anticipated such a situation.

Kidd was the same; this was beyond his expectations.

Because the hidden person in the shadows might also target him!

"Lockdown!"

With an order, the Anglo people surrounded Kidd and Lin Yi, three people closely monitoring the surroundings.

"If you think for a moment, you’ll know this can’t be my doing."

Lin Yi’s anger flared instantly, drawing his weapon and aiming it at Kidd:

"Get him onto the car."

Kidd knew exactly who the fat guy lying in the blood was.

Compared to Lin Yi, his identity was more sensitive.

If he died here, things would be particularly troublesome.

"Do as he says."

The Anglo personnel, being well-trained, placed Liu Hong on the car.

"Get in the car, drive to the hospital." Lin Yi pointed at Kidd.

Kidd seemed to downplay the situation, or rather, at this moment, he no longer viewed Lin Yi as an enemy but as an interesting opponent.

He got in the car calmly, without Lin Yi’s urging, and started the car himself.

Liu Hong clutched his wound, eyes closed, unmoving.

Lin Yi instinctively checked his pulse; it was weak but still stable.

"Boss, hang in there, don’t close your eyes, we’ll reach the hospital soon."

"I, I know..."

As someone who had been through many storms, Liu Hong knew exactly what to do at the moment.

Lin Yi took out his phone and dialed Ning Che’s number.

"How’s the situation over there!"

"The boss is injured, the Central Guards Brigade is on full alert, head into the city!"
