Chapter 36: Decision (2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Hao’s mind worked quickly. He had seen through many things today. Liu Long’s law enforcement team topped the list among those things.

Li Hao was sure that the chaos in the law enforcement team was caused by none other than himself. He was very cunning!

Li Hao cursed inwardly. He wondered whether he should take on the offer or not. ‘If I do, I will definitely have some help dealing with the whole red shadow debacle. I am not familiar with the Night Patrollers. If Liu Long and the others really wanted to be Supers then they were certainly more dedicated than the Night Patrollers, only a bit weaker.’

‘However, I don’t like this business of killing Supers,’ thought Li Hao. Li Hao knew he was the next target of the red shadow. After today’s incident, the ones who controlled it might already be planning their next move. ‘I am afraid…’

Li Hao wondered what actually made him so scared. After a while, deep in thought, he realized it was Liu Long. If Liu Long was on the same side as the people who controlled the red shadow, Li Hao was in real danger!

If that was true, everything was now revealed and Li Hao needed to be even more careful. He sighed. His heart felt heavy.

Li Hao felt more lost than ever. He had found out about some things today which had added more questions than answers. If Li Hao couldn’t find a way to deal with the red shadow, then he was in even more danger than before.

…

BOOM!

A large vehicle flattened the Zhang family house. A huge cloud of smoke blew from it. Li Hao silently watched the house getting demolished thinking sadly of Zhang Yuan.

‘Zhang Yuan, your home is gone!’ said Li Hao to himself. ‘You are dead and your home is being demolished. The last trace of you will be gone from this world!’

‘The only thing I can do for you is to make sure I find your murderer,’ thought Li Hao sadly. ‘I don’t seem to be able to do anything else. Please forgive me.’

The charming female Patrol Officer approached Li Hao quietly. She smiled at him. “If you decide to join us, you can find us tomorrow! I am Liu Yan, by the way, the Vice-captain of the law enforcement team. You are welcome to contact me anytime.”

Liu Yan!

Li Hao wouldn’t have recognized her had she not mentioned her name. But now that she had, he knew where he had heard her name.

He had been in the Confidential Information Room for a year. There was always gossip at the Inspection Office. Liu Yan was one of the names he had heard.

Liu Long’s lover. Li Hao didn’t know if that was true. It was gossip and rumors, after all. The aunties in the Confidential Information Room talked about her with disdain. They always said she got to the position of the Vice-captain in the law enforcement team because of her looks and charms. Seeing her in person today, Li Hao realized that those rumors were baseless. Being the Vice-captain, she should be at least a Level 1 Patrol Officer. She did seem formidable.

Above the Chief patrol Officer was the Patrol Envoy. Liu Long was a Patrol Envoy. His title was only second to the Inspector general. Even the Deputy General might not have as much power as him.

“Of course. Thank you,” said Li Hao.

A wise man should always know when to be courteous. At this moment, he couldn’t directly refuse the offer.

Liu Yan smiled. “You won’t regret it.” She left.

They were very fast and efficient and didn’t make much noise. Li Hao was frightened of them. They looked ordinary but they were far from it. They had a faint layer of starlight on their body. It was very weak but he could notice it when they were close.

That was the same starlight energy that had been in the water where the jade pendant was soaked.

‘A Half-super? Is there such a thing?’ thought Li Hao. These few people had probably drawn the energy into their bodies before they came here. They had not succeeded in becoming a full-fledged Super.

Liu Long’s position in the law enforcement team was powerful. He must have had a lot of help.

‘Liu Long kills Supers to absorb their energy. Maybe I can just use the water. My jade sword will provide the energy. I just need to figure out if the Zhang family’s saber does the same.’

The rumbling continued. Soon, flames rose from the house. Li Hao watched silently. He didn’t regret his choice. He had obtained a lot of information today. Some information was even beyond his wildest imagination. Even if he had exposed himself a little, it was worth it.

He wondered if the people who controlled the red shadow knew that he was the wielder of the Li family sword. Maybe.

Perhaps they had their own reason for not making a move on him yet. If they had killed his parents like he suspected, then they probably knew that the Li family’s sword was with him.

‘With such a commotion, the enemy won’t show themselves, obviously,’ thought Li Hao. He pulled his jacked tighter around him and patted Black Panther. “Let’s go,” he said softly.

Li Hao took advantage of the commotion and left quietly

…

A few people gathered around Liu Long. Liu Yan looked doubtfully at Li Hao leaving quietly in the dark. “Do you really think he will join us?”
