Crazy Detective

“God.” Xiao Hang looked around and exclaimed, “It’s so big. Why? How could no one have found it in all this time? Why did it take those experts such a long time and yet they still failed?”

After the lights were turned up, Zhao Yu and others saw that they were in a huge air-raid shelter. The highest point of the air-raid shelter was up to tens of meters, and the shelter was at least 100 meters wide. Zhao Yu looked forward and couldn’t see where the passage ended.

There were all kinds of military materials, equipment, and weapons in the shelter. Beside the tank, there were dozens of anti-aircraft guns on the ground on their right side.

Because the lights lit up so suddenly, Zhao Yu, Li Jing, and Xiao Hang had no time to check how many weapons were in this air-raid shelter. They knew that it was the enemy who had turned the lights on.

“Now, they are increasing the difficulty of playing hide and seek. I think we’d better hide first,” Xiao Hang said in a low voice.

Zhao Yu shook his head and said, “Since they could find the switch it means that they are very familiar with this place. It won’t be easy for us to hide.”

“It was probably a naturally-formed cave at first.” Li Jing looked at the uneven top of the air-raid shelter and said, “This is different from other war fortresses I know. It is more like a secret strategic reserve base.”

Zhao Yu waved his hand. “If it’s a strategic reserve base, it’s probably where the treasure was buried. My right eyelid has been twitching severely. Captain Li, I’m afraid this could be worse than we thought.”

“Big detective, I know that, and you don’t need to remind me of how bad our situation is,” Li Jing said coldly to Zhao Yu. “Our enemy is approaching. Can you say something encouraging? We must strengthen our unity in the face of powerful enemies.”

“Aren’t you very good at fighting? Why are you sacred this time?” Xiao Hang asked. He also had a cold tone to his voice.

“Don’t you understand?” Zhao Yu yelled. “The enemy may not just be targeting Cui Lizhu. They brought us here. I can’t imagine what they are going to do with us.”

Xiao Hang frowned. Obviously, he didn’t understand what Zhao Yu was saying.

“I’m afraid now…” Zhao Yu said anxiously. He paused. “Their purpose is not to find the treasure, but… Um…”

Zhao Yu didn’t finish, as the detector in his head suddenly sent a red alarm to him. He immediately said to Li Jing, “Captain Li, eight o’clock direction, I’ll count on you to take care of that.”

Huh?

Li Jing was confused but she quickly took out her gun and aimed it in the eight o’clock direction. However, there was nothing there.

“Well…” Zhao Yu covered his face. “I’m sorry, it’s my eight o’clock.”

“Yours?” Li Jing turned around and found that, at Zhao Yu’s eight o’clock, there were many wooden boxes. She moved a bit, then finally understood what Zhao Yu was saying.

Above the wooden boxes, there was a drone.

After seeing the drone, Li Jing couldn’t help but shake her head. Her eyes were filled with despair. She found that the drone was facing them. It meant that the enemy had already found them.

“Cui Lizhu. Cui Lizhu!” Zhao Yu shouted Cui Lizhu’s name repeatedly and noticed that she had moved her fingers a bit. Then he used another antidote on her. The system didn’t ask him to enhance it this time. It immediately counteracted the anesthetic that remained in Cui Lizhu’s system.

“Oh…” Cui Lizhu made a slight sound. Although she had opened her eyes, she appeared weak.

“Alas…” Zhao Yu let out a long breath. It seemed that he had to carry Cui Lizhu on his back again because she obviously couldn’t walk yet.

Xiao Hang and Li Jing exchanged looks. Then, after Li Jing nodded, they shot at the drone and destroyed it. Li Jing shot at the entrance of the shelter, forcing the enemy to retreat.

It turned out that the enemy had been waiting there for a while. They wanted to besiege Zhao Yu, Li Jing, and Xiao Hang. However, Zhao Yu discovered their plan and fought back in advance.

“Come on,” Xiao Hang shouted at Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu got out from behind the wooden boxes and ran deep into the air-raid shelter with Cui Lizhu on his back.

Unexpectedly, a fully armed man emerged from the right side. The man was wearing a camouflage bulletproof vest and a police helmet. Zhao Yu couldn’t see his face clearly.

As soon as the man stepped out, he aimed his miniature submachine gun at Zhao Yu and shot. Zhao Yu was caught by surprise. At that time, he realized that Cui Lizhu was right in front of him and the bullet was about to hit her.

He immediately turned around, then several rubber bullets hit him in the back.

Ouch.

Zhao Yu jumped up in the air and screamed.

The man saw that his bullets hit Zhao Yu and quickly rushed over. He intended to shoot at him again, but just then Xiao Hang came to help Zhao Yu and fired at the man. His bullets all hit on the man’s bulletproof vest.

Even though he was wearing a bulletproof vest, the man still felt great pain like Zhao Yu had. He let out a miserable scream and suddenly turned around and hid behind boxes.

“Run,” Xiao Hang shouted at Zhao Yu, urging him to leave immediately.

However, Zhao Yu did not run. Instead, he put Cui Lizhu on the ground, then went over to the man who had just shot him.

Zhao Yu knew that Xiao Hang was protecting him, but he heard a stampede of footsteps coming from the other side. He knew that they were surrounded by the enemy and he couldn’t escape.

They were trapped. there was no way that he could find a place to hide or escape. The only possible way to survive was if he could force his way through the besiegers.

It was a critical, life or death moment. The only thing Zhao Yu was able to think about at the moment was that he needed to upgrade his devices.

He did not hesitate and used an Energy Booster to fortify his strength.

He immediately felt an adrenaline rush. He did not run directly to the man who was hiding behind the boxes. Instead, he threw himself on the wooden boxes.

The heavy wooden boxes collapsed on the man behind them. As the wooden boxes broke, Zhao Yu saw that there were rifles in them.

Zhao Yu was not a fan of guns, but these rifles looked familiar to him. He remembered that he had seen them in TV dramas related to the Anti-Japanese War.

The man was wriggling under the broken boxes but couldn’t get out.

Zhao Yu was excited. Remembering how the enemy had shot him with the rubber bullets, he was furious. He stepped back, then dashed along the passage and jumped on the pile of broken boxes again.

Zhao Yu did this with all of his strength and broke all of the boxes. The man under the boxes howled miserably, then passed out.

The enemy rushed over from all sides. A man dressed in the same bulletproof vest jumped off a Jeep, then pointed at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu roared and picked up a rifle from the ground. He didn’t pull the bolt before aiming at a man who was rushing toward him. “Go to h*ll,” he shouted.

Seeing Zhao Yu picking up the old rifle, the man was confused. He knew that the rifles in the boxes were not loaded. Although Zhao Yu could not see his expression clearly, he knew that the man was laughing at him.

However, the man didn’t know that Zhao Yu had done this on purpose. When he picked the rifle up, he quietly took his gun out with his right hand. When the man stopped there laughing at Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu shot him without hesitation.

By the time the man realized what was happening and tried to fight back, Zhao Yu had finished him. Zhao Yu shot at his chest, arms, and legs respectively. The man fell to the ground, unable to move any longer.

Zhao Yu aimed at his head and shot again. After that, Zhao Yu ran out of bullets.

“Ah! Ah!”

Suddenly, Zhao Yu heard Cui Lizhu cry loudly. He looked back and saw that two men were carrying her away.

Zhao Yu yelled, then rushed toward her. At that time, a flash bomb exploded under his feet.

Bang.

Zhao Yu couldn’t see anything.
