Chapter 54: Emotionally Abusing Bachelors with Sincerity (1)

Translator: Dragon Rider

Having spent all these years indulging in eating, drinking and pleasure-seeking with those rich so-and-sos' sons, He Zheng had never learned any fighting skills, and drag racing had been the most thrilling activity he had ever got involved in, so this scene of explosion, the likes of which he had never seen before, was too much for him. He was instantly transfixed with shock.

With that almighty boom, the whole building started quaking violently. Zhen Ni, who was nearest to the scene of the explosion, ran for the Ministry of Supervision without thinking. Tun Shanhai took a flying leap turning into a white cat in mid-air, landed on the windowsill and then jumped down. With another couple of nimble bounds, he made it to the window ledge of one of the rooms of the Ministry of Supervision and soon disappeared.

All people in the room hastily ran out heading for the exit passageway with their hands holding their heads.

The bases of the lights hanging from the ceiling loosened due to the quaking caused by the powerful explosion. Holding He Zheng's hand, Zu Zhichong led him towards the exit, dodging those falling lights all the way. All members of the first and second action groups had made it to the Ministry of Supervision except for Zu Zhichong. He, He Changchun and He Zheng were following other staff members trying to get out of the building.

He Zheng and He Changchun were panting heavily after running. They were told to stay at the open field near the front gate of the bureau. Shrill alarm, smashes of fallen lights and people's yelling were mixing together, shrouding the whole place in panic.

He Zheng was covered in dust shed from walls by the quaking resulted from the explosion. Zu Zhichong also cut a sorry figure.

”What happened in there just now? He Jin exploded?” asked He Zheng after letting out several fits of coughing. With that, he slumped to his hips, gasping for breath.

Zu Zhichong squinted his eyes and was just about to make a response when He Changchun's face changed several times in a row, as if signaling Zu Zhichong. But when Zu Zhichong gave a bob of his head, He Changchun unnoticeably heaved a slight sigh of relief.

Though a very subtle movement, it failed to escape He Zheng's notice.

With that, He Changchun roared angrily, ”What the hell happened to He Jin? Why did he explode?”

His anger seemed rather inexplicable and also somewhat stagy.

Zu Zhichong couldn't be bothered to answer him.

At this moment, another person, also dusty and dirty in appearance, ran out of the exit near a stairway of B1 of the Ministry of Supervision and started coughing uncontrollably. Zu Zhichong hurried over and supported the child-like person who had a disgusted look on his face.

It was Tun Shanhai.

”How bad is it in there?”

”F**k! Fortunately, the Ministry of Supervision has two protective layers of enchantment, otherwise the whole building would have been flattened by the explosion. If those troublesome guys in there bust out, things would be even trickier.”

Tun Shanhai seemed to be really pissed off with this situation, which was why he was reduced to a four-letter word.

After a while, exhausted Zhen Ni made it out of the building as well, her face somewhat pale, guided by Han Zhuo. Zhen Ni seemed to have suffered an injury. Before going out, she impassively gave a slight inclination of her head at Li Zong.

Nobody was paying attention when these people, amid chaos and confusion, briefly exchanged glances with one another, as if reaching some kind of tacit confidentiality agreement.

Surprisingly, after standing on the spot for a while but still didn't see Li Zong walk out of the exit, He Zheng felt somewhat worried. Involuntarily, he took a couple of steps forward. After another few moments, another two people ran out –Lin Di and Zhang Jingqiu whom he had met in the morning. The two of them were not as sorry-looking as those who had exited the building before them.

The frown on He Zheng's face deepened.

He couldn't help but walk up to Zhang Jingqiu and asked, ”Where's Li Zong?”

Zhang Jingqiu softly flicked him a glance and pointed in the direction of the building. ”Supt. Li and Mr. Zhen are still in there.”
