Chapter 118: The Resistance of the Chess Pieces

Fang Linyan wiped the sweat from his head, then he looked at the seemingly messy parts in front of him contentedly and beat his sore waist hard.

“Damn it, not having the right workbench is really torturing.”

He didn’t feel anything when he was immersed in work before. As soon as he relaxed, he suddenly felt dry-mouth and sleepy. He picked up the bamboo tube beside and took a sip, but he spewed out immediately. It turned out that the water had gone bad after being left for a day and night.

So Fang Linyan quickly walked downstairs and went to the water tank beside the kitchen to drink the water. After drinking 3 consecutive bowls, he let out a sigh of relief.

He called twice in the team channel at this time, and he found that no one responded. The rest should be 100 meters away. Suddenly, he heard someone seemed to be talking at the door. After the old man said a few words, a loud “bang” sounded at the door! The door was kicked open directly, then a few people rushed directly. 1 of them yelled with a metal megaphone,

“It’s here. All members listen. These people are extremely vicious criminals. They have caused many heavy casualties. They can’t be taken lightly. Kill them if you have the chance!”

Fang Linyan didn’t see anyone in the kitchen at this time, but listening to the footsteps, he knew that the matter was serious because there were patapata sounds along with the footsteps. The sounds were clearly the sounds of guns or magazines hitting their clothes. They clearly didn’t come with kind intentions. After hearing their shout, he couldn’t help being stunned.

Suddenly, the captain’s hasty voice came from the team channel at this time,

“Wrench! Be careful, we have been secretly set up. We have somehow become wanted criminals. The Iron Fist Brotherhood has dispatched guards to arrest us! We are in a terrible situation now, watch out for yourself!”

Hearing the message from the captain, Fang Linyan murmured in a low voice,

“No, this is not the process of capturing the wanted criminals at all… They usually surround the wanted criminals quietly, then placing people at the front door, back door and other places where they can escape. Next, they slowly approach like the cat catches the mouse. Finally, they successfully arrest the criminals in 1 move!”

At this time, he had quietly got out of the kitchen, flipped his wrist, and directly activated the [Drone]!

A palm-sized [Drone] directly appeared in his palm. The belly of [Drone] had a protective color according to the environment. If it was a blue sky and white clouds, then it was blue and white. If it was a gloomy sky, it was pale gray.

[Drone] uses a 4-rotor design, the sound from it was almost inaudible during noisy days. It flew up under Fang Linyan’s mind. Suddenly, a block appeared in the upper right corner of Fang Linyan’s retinas, displaying the bird’s-eye view captured by [Drone].

Fang Linyan then enabled the follow mode of the [Drone]. In this mode, [Drone] would follow him while maintaining a high altitude, and it would automatically avoid possible obstacles along the way. When it couldn’t follow him, it would warn Fang Linyan.

After releasing [Drone], Fang Linyan saw that the people who came to arrest were moving forward in a disorderly manner, and the back and the side of the small building were empty. They clearly didn’t do any preparations for chasing and intercepting. The people who came to arrest were dressed in random clothes; they were much like armed wanderers. Their military capabilities were very low and chaotic.

In Yangfan City, such people were not uncommon. They usually relied on hunting or ambushing the patrolling mechanical creatures to make a living. However, once they encountered a caravan with a seemingly weak defense, they would become cruel robbers that ransacked the caravan.

However, behind these people stood a man in the uniform of the Iron Fist Brotherhood. He had a metal megaphone in his hand, and he should be the one who gave commands before.

Letting these loose and greedy rogues enforce the law seems a bit of a violation, but there were actually such precedents in Yangfan City. When the Iron Fist Brotherhood was short of manpower previously, they would let their kins recruit a group of familiar armed wanderers to temporarily maintain the order. Its nature was similar to that of the co-police hired by the police.

However, the doubts that Fang Linyan found were quite obvious,

If it was a normal arrest, how could they order to kill the criminals without fully encircling the building! Shouldn’t they ask them to give up resistance and surrender?

Therefore, at the moment Fang Linyan heard the order, Fang Linyan immediately figured out what happened.

“Deliberately alert the enemy!”

After reaching this conclusion, Fang Linyan immediately further reasoned,

“So, the people who did this behind the scenes want to drive the contestants to the market and cause chaos? If this is really their intention, then something should happen at this time.”

He immediately left the kitchen, climbed over the wall and quietly came to the rooftop of the neighbor’s house. The view here was obviously much wider. He could immediately see that there were already several eye-catching black smoke pillars in the entire city…

“It’s really such a case, killing people, setting fires, driving people with destructive ability to flee in the market to create chaos… This is the rhythm of deliberately confusing people! Then isn’t the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes obvious?

“Use the greatest chaos to cover up the chaos in a certain location so that the forces responsible for public security are exhausted and have no time to look around. The guys behind the scenes want to do a big thing in Yangfan City!”

At this moment, Fang Linyan realized that those guys had discovered where he was, and they ran toward him directly. The guys who pursued him obviously had poor combat power. They already started shooting from a long distance. The bullets that hit the ground were at least 3 meters away from Fang Linyan. Faced with such an attack, Fang Linyan jumped off the roof and fled into the alley beside…

“Interesting, really interesting!” Fang Linyan frowned.

“The person behind the scenes gave me a multiple-choice question. My current choice… either resist or flee. It is impossible to surrender. If I stand out, I will be shot to death!”

“If I resist, it won’t be difficult to kill these rabble chasers, but then I will surely provoke more powerful forces. This will make the entire city defense even more empty, and create even more space for those who set this up behind the scenes! It is equivalent to becoming a qualified chess piece.”

“If I continue to escape, then these guys will keep chasing me. They follow my escape route to hunt with fanfare, shooting and killing at the same time. This will undoubtedly injure more people and make the whole city appear more chaotic. It can also confuse the actual rulers of this city… I’m still a chess piece for the guys behind the scenes!”

“In other words, the people who are set up at this time are actually decoys! No matter what kind of response they make after the attack, they will be unconsciously used!”

After pondering for a while, Fang Linyan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and immediately sneered,

Hehe, you can use other people, but setting me up is really too much. I’m not the one who can be controlled easily!”

“Since all the choices in the multiple-choice question in front of me are traps, why should I still do this question? Therefore, my choice is neither to resist, nor to run away, nor to surrender, but… to run!!”

At this moment, Fang Linyan glanced back at the rabble chasers who were chasing from more than a hundred meters away from the back, then he walked into a mortgage shop.

The boss of this mortgage shop had a black heart. He had forced countless ordinary families to go bankrupt and sell their children relying on his own social connection. Seeing Fang Linyan walked it, he showed a wicked smile and was about to derogate him habitually, but Fang Linyan just gave a punch in his stomach.

The boss immediately bent down in pain and retched. Fang Linyan hit the back of his back with his elbow. The boss rolled his eyes and fainted. Fang Linyan took out the key from his waist, threw it into the counter, pointed at the astounded clerk with 98K and said,

“Unlock.”

The clerk looked at the black muzzle, swallowed and immediately obediently followed suit.

Fang Linyan was hiding behind the shelter beside him.

At this time, the pursuers had already come in through the door. A gunshot sounded inside, the person who rushed in the front immediately covered his thigh, rolled on the ground in pain and yelled loudly.

When these people saw their companion wailing on the ground, they must have been frightened. They had been chasing for so long before, and they thought Fang Linyan was a coward. They did not expect him to actually shoot and resist! Thinking that they must have encountered a tough guy, so they immediately took a breath and found a place to hide.

This was actually a typical feature of the rabbles. They shot vigorously when they shouldn’t; when it was time they should charge courageously, they were all as timid as a mouse.

After dozens of seconds, when the group of people mustered up their courage to rush into the mortgage shop under the threat of the uniformed man behind, their eyes were suddenly beaming. There was a large amount of coins and valuables scattered on the ground inside, and the safe beside was even open. This greedy nature of this group of people immediately acted up. They immediately rushed up with their eyes bright.

The rest of the people might still have the intention of arresting Fang Linyan, but when they saw their companions rushing up and stuffing valuable stuffs into their pockets with a manic or furious expression, they immediately lost that thought.

TL: Free gold? Thank you very much ?. Now he has become a wanted criminal, will he still be able to stay in Yangfan City in the future?
