Hidden Moth-Chapter 395 - 220: Hidden Moth Challenges Two Masters (Part 3)
Zou Tianjin: "Then he is my savior, just like you."
Gu Chun smiled enigmatically, "Actually, even if he didn’t intervene, you wouldn’t have been entirely helpless, would you?"
This was true, although the two assassins coordinated well and their attacks were sharp, the best opportunity came during the Boomerang Guest’s surprise attack. However, Zou Tianjin remained vigilant even while healing.
Gu Chun had already warned him upon appearing, that Fabre might have accomplices nearby.
In the ensuing scenario, Zou Tianjin appeared passive, but the Jade Locking Pillar offered tight protection. He wasn’t entirely without means to counter, but a sudden counterattack would aggravate his injuries, akin to a desperate gamble. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Such measures are taken only in dire situations, which wasn’t quite the case yet. He trusted that Gu Chun would rush back, and indeed, Gu Chun arrived in time.
With the mysterious figure’s assistance, Zou Tianjin seized the opportunity to decisively capture the Feisuo Guest.
At this moment, Zou Tianjin earnestly said, "That was a life-saving grace too!" He then pondered aloud, "I’ve subdued this assassin, but I couldn’t possibly chase the other."
It seems the masked figure could teleport, unexpectedly obstructing the assassin’s escape, rendering even a high-tier cultivator completely taken by surprise, taking a bullet to the chest..."
Gu Chun: "What are you thinking? Feel free to speak."
Zou Tianjin: "Could it be—he is the legendary Hidden Moth?"
Gu Chun: "Hidden Moth’s reappearance in Jianghu has been more than a day or two."
Zou Tianjin: "Why did he save me?"
Gu Chun: "Because the ones who should die aren’t you. If it’s within one’s ability, why not save you?"
Zou Tianjin: "I’m fortunate Earth Master was here today, otherwise my fate would’ve been perilous... How did you end up here?"
This question had been on his mind for a while, but he only voiced it now; facing Fabre earlier, Zou Tianjin didn’t know Gu Chun was watching from the skies.
Gu Chun: "The police will be here soon; let’s take this person away first and talk elsewhere... Do you have a convenient place?"
Zou Tianjin: "Let’s go to my place."
Gu Chun lifted the Feisuo Guest and gestured to collect the scattered items on the ground, then swiftly vanished into the night with Zou Tianjin. Moments later, a police car approached with flashing lights.
Police had already arrived at Haitang Park, discovering two cars ablaze, unsure of the situation. Soon after, they heard two successive booms from afar.
The sounds resembled explosions; if they were gunshots, they weren’t from ordinary pistols or rifles.
The scenario was beyond what regular patrol officers could handle, prompting immediate calls for backup. If someone wielded powerful firearms, it’d endanger the police, yet a police vehicle still approached to investigate.
He Kao could take the Boomerang Guest’s corpse but left him upon Gu Chun’s suggestion. Though ordinary police lack the sorcerer’s abilities, one shouldn’t underestimate the Eastern Country’s law enforcement, especially with modern technology.
If the Boomerang Guest’s whereabouts had surfaced in Eastern Country’s official surveillance, the police could certainly trace it, including his identity records, border crossings, whereabouts, and even meals...
If he’s from Eastern Country, his family background, official records, social ties can also be probed. Then, the Ancestral Hall will acquire the police’s investigative data as leverage.
Besides, the Ancestral Hall has captured a live suspect for interrogation.
