Chapter 30: Lawless

Su Xiao drove on the street at midnight, and the co-pilot was the young policeman.

At this time, the young policeman was tied to the throat by a belt, and the belt was firmly fixed on the back seat when Su Xiao used the brakes, the young policeman would choke, and his eyes would almost turn white.

“How far is it?” Su Xiao was already going at high speed. He was going at least 160 km/h, as there were very few vehicles on the street at midnight.

In this high speed, Su Xiao found one thing, he was still able to see things even though he was going so fast. The agility attribute not only improved his speed but also increased his reflex.

“We’re almost there, friend, please slow down, my son is only two years old.”

The young policeman was desperate, as he felt that today may be his last.

The kind of gaze Su Xiao showed previously, the young policeman was familiar with it, it was the look of a murderer.

The young policeman also noticed that Su Xiao was different from the general murderers because Su Xiao’s gaze was too cold, even colder than the serial killers he saw a year ago.

“Help me find my sword, and you can live.”

Su Xiao lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.

The young policeman sighed and finally nodded.

After driving into a community, Su Xiao came to the destination.

“Get off.”

Su Xiao held a dark pistol in his hand. This was the gun of the young policeman.

According to the guide of the young police, Su Xiao came to the front of the director’s house.

“Knock on the door.”

The young policeman hesitated and looked at the gun in Su Xiao’s hand. The gun was already pointed at him.

In desperation, the young police could only knock on the door.

“Don, don, don~.”

After knocking on the door several times, a faint footstep sound came from inside.

“Who is it? It’s midnight.”

A slightly tired female voice came from inside the door.

“It’s me, Xiao Zhang,”

After a dozen seconds, a middle-aged woman opened the door.

“Come in, it’s pretty late now, is something in the bureau…”

The middle-aged woman’s question stopped, and a black pistol was pointed at her head.

“Go back slowly, no sound.”

The middle-aged woman was scared, looking at Su Xiao, and after a while, she slowly retreated.

Su Xiao passed the young policeman to the room and entered the room, then softly closed the door.

When the middle-aged woman stepped back, she accidentally bumped into a vase half a meter high behind her.

“Pala, pala.” The broken ceramic sound was loud in the quiet living room.

“Don’t, don’t be impulsive, I didn’t mean it.”

Su Xiao did not pay attention to middle-aged women. His eyes were locked on the table in the living room. On the table, a sword holder was placed, and on it, his sword rested.

When he stepped forward, Su Xiao picked up his sword. He felt familiar, as he couldn’t help but smile.

“Mom, it’s noisy~.”

The door of a bedroom in front of Su Xiao was opened. A girl wearing a sling stood in the doorway with her eyes open.

The girl stared at Su Xiao, and her mouth was slightly open, and she wanted to shout.

Su Xiao raised his gun, he swayed the gun and told the girl to go back. The girl nodded quickly and slammed the door.

Because the sword had been found, Su Xiao went away under the eyes of the two people in the living room, and quickly left the place.

“Xiao Zhang, let’s call the police.”

The Middle-aged woman was too scared, and she even wanted to report to the police.

The policeman Xiao Zhang smiled with bitter and looked at the middle-aged women with some helplessness.

“I already informed the provincial office that the guy was well trained. I didn’t even know how he did it. This dangerous guy is not an ordinary person.”

When the thing about Su Xiao was informed of the provincial office, he had already taken on the high-speed rail to the neighboring city.

At this time, Su Xiao’s face changed a lot. He looked like a student.  He could pretend to be a college student with a little makeup.

Arriving at the neighboring city, Su Xiao did not stop, just sat on a long-distance bus.

Through the bumps of the long-distance bus, Su Xiao’s body was also slightly swinging. He seemed to have closed his eyes, but he actually checked the situation around him.

The child was crying, the two young girls in the front seat talking to each other, and the young man with the headphones was swaying in front of him.

“News: a vicious criminal appeared in the neighboring city.”

The video was played on the LCD screen in front of the bus suddenly, and Su Xiao’s photo appeared.

“Criminal…….”

The passengers on the long-distance bus were attracted by this news.

Su Xiao sighed and thought that their action was swift. In less than six hours, his wanted order had already been issued.

But for Su Xiao, this kind of wanted threat was not significant. First of all, do not talk about his own strength, with his hiding ability, it was difficult for the police to find him.

After several turnovers, Su Xiao continued to hurry for four days. In the end, he did not know where he was and stopped.

Taking out the new mobile phone to check his position, Su Xiao found out that he was in DL city, a coastal town.

“Good place.”

DL City was surrounded by the sea on three sides. Even if he is caught by a large number of police officers, he can at most smuggle abroad.

What’s more, his business was only a murder case. It was not very bad. At most, there was something abnormal about him being dead and resurrecting.

As for kidnapping the police, it will not be announced.

Not in the worst case, Su Xiao will not have to flee abroad.

Now the most important thing was to find a place to settle down. Su Xiao didn’t want to go to a hotel. There were so many people in that kind of place that was not suitable for long term.

Standing on the busy street, Su Xiao felt hungry. These days, it was basically running on the road, and he did not have a decent meal.

Su Xiao found a restaurant and ordered a local crab.

The time was May, which was the most productive season for the crab. The crab had at least a pound more than usual.

Opening the hard crab shell and sip the secret sauce of the shop, he bit on it, and the delicious taste spread all over his mouth. The smooth and tender crab meat stimulates his taste buds, and the unique flavor of the seafood made him have an endless aftertaste.

“Boss, the bill please.”

Su Xiao put down the last crab shell in his hand.

The restaurant owner took the bill and walked up, looking at the crab shell on the table with some horror.

“This ~.” The boss was stunned by Su Xiao’s appetite because Su Xiao ate more than seven or eight servings of food which exceed ordinary people by a lot.

The enhancement of vitality meant that Su Xiao needed more energy as Power would not appear without reason, and required a lot of energy.

“A total is 789, you can give me 780.”

Su Xiao took out a few hundred dollars and handed them to the boss.

“Is there a rented house nearby? I am a student who just arrived here. I need to find a place to stay for a few months.”

After the boss took out his mobile phone and searched with it for a while, he pointed his mobile phone at Su Xiao, and the mobile phone wrote ‘DL City Rental Network’.

The owner looked at Su Xiao’s eyes at this time, seemed to say, ‘Young people, no one is looking for rent on the street now’.

Su Xiao laughed and wrote down the website then left the restaurant.

Walking on the bustling street, Su Xiao thumb quickly clicked on the screen of the mobile phone to check the website. This was a small local social networking site specializing in housing agencies.

After a long time, he found strange information.

“Excellent location, convenient transportation, starting from 100,000 dollars per month.”

In DL City, the rent of 100,000 dollars monthly was not ordinary, but it was not uncommon as well. It was doubtful that this advertisement did not indicate too much housing information, just left a phone number.

Su Xiao was not short of money, directly dialed the phone, housing for 100,000 dollars per month, the conditions of the house should be good, it should be the specifications of luxury villas.

The phone was quickly connected, and a hoarse male voice came.

“Let’s discuss in person, No. 37 Tianhai Road.”

After a simple sentence, he hung up.

Su Xiao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head as it was too troublesome.

There may be other hidden things. The price of 100,000 dollars per month was a bit strange. He did not want to participate in it, so he decided to choose other places.

    Su Xiao drove on the street at midnight, with the young policeman as his co-pilot. At that moment, the young policeman had a belt tied tightly around his throat, secured to the back seat. Whenever Su Xiao hit the brakes, the young policeman would choke, causing his eyes to almost roll back.

    "How much farther?" Su Xiao asked, already driving at high speed—around 160 km/h—since there were very few vehicles on the street late at night.

    Despite the high speed, Su Xiao noticed something peculiar. He could still see things clearly even at such a fast pace. His agility attribute not only improved his speed but also heightened his reflexes.

    "We're almost there, friend. Please slow down. My son is only two years old," the young policeman pleaded, feeling desperate and sensing that today might be his last.

    The young policeman recognized the look Su Xiao had shown earlier—it was a familiar gaze, the gaze of a murderer. But Su Xiao was different from the typical murderers the young policeman had encountered before. Su Xiao's gaze was too cold, even colder than the serial killers he had seen a year ago.

    "Help me find my sword, and you can live," Su Xiao said, lighting a cigarette and taking a deep breath.

    The young policeman sighed and finally nodded in agreement.

    They drove into a community, reaching their destination.

    "Get out," Su Xiao ordered, holding the young policeman's gun, which he had taken possession of.

    Reluctantly, the young policeman stepped out of the car, the gun pointed at him. He hesitated but eventually knocked on the door as instructed by Su Xiao.

    "Knock, knock, knock," the sound echoed through the quiet night. After several knocks, a faint sound of footsteps could be heard from inside.

    "Who is it? It's midnight," a slightly tired female voice called from behind the door.

    "It's me, Xiao Zhang," the young policeman replied.

    After a short wait, a middle-aged woman opened the door.

    "Come in. It's quite late. Is something wrong at the bureau?" the middle-aged woman asked, her question abruptly halting as she noticed the black pistol pointed at her head.

    "Go back slowly, without making a sound," Su Xiao commanded, causing the middle-aged woman to tremble in fear. She stared at Su Xiao for a moment and then slowly retreated, obeying his orders.

    Su Xiao brought the young policeman inside the house and entered a room, closing the door softly behind him.

    As the middle-aged woman stepped back, she accidentally bumped into a half-meter-high vase, causing it to shatter with a loud crash that filled the silent living room.

    "Don't be impulsive. I didn't mean to," the middle-aged woman pleaded, but Su Xiao paid her no attention. His eyes were fixed on the table in the living room, where his sword rested upon a sword holder.

    Approaching the table, Su Xiao picked up his sword. It felt familiar in his hand, bringing a smile to his face.

    "Mom, it's noisy," a girl with her eyes wide open appeared in the doorway of a bedroom. She was wearing a sling.

    The girl stared at Su Xiao, her mouth slightly agape, as if about to scream.

    Su Xiao raised his gun and gestured for her to go back. The girl quickly nodded and closed the door.

    With his sword finally retrieved, Su Xiao left the living room, leaving behind the bewildered middle-aged woman and the young policeman. He swiftly made his way out of the area.

    "Xiao Zhang, we should call the police," the middle-aged woman suggested, still shaken and considering reporting the incident.

    The young policeman, Xiao Zhang, smiled wryly, looking at the middle-aged woman with a sense

    of helplessness.

    "I've already informed the provincial office. That guy is well-trained; I have no idea how he did it. He's not an ordinary criminal."

    By the time news about Su Xiao reached the provincial office, he had already boarded a high-speed train bound for a neighboring city.

    As the train journey continued, Su Xiao's appearance changed significantly. With some makeup, he could easily pass for a college student.

    Upon arriving in the neighboring city, Su Xiao didn't stop there. Instead, he boarded a long-distance bus.

    While the bus rattled along, Su Xiao's body swayed slightly. Although it seemed like he had closed his eyes, he was actually monitoring the situation around him.

    Children were crying, two young girls were chatting in the front seats, and a young man with headphones was swaying in front of him.

    "Newsflash: A dangerous criminal spotted in the neighboring city," the video suddenly played on the bus's LCD screen, revealing Su Xiao's photo.

    "Criminal..." the passengers on the bus were captivated by the news.

    Su Xiao sighed, impressed by the swift response. Within six hours, a wanted order had been issued for him.

    However, for Su Xiao, this wanted threat held little significance. Aside from his own strength, his ability to hide made it difficult for the police to find him.

    After several detours, Su Xiao continued his journey for four more days until he finally stopped, unsure of his current location.

    Taking out his new mobile phone to check his whereabouts, he discovered he was in DL City, a coastal town.

    "What a nice place," Su Xiao thought to himself. DL City was surrounded by the sea on three sides, offering him an escape route even if he were to be pursued by a large number of police officers. Moreover, his crimes were limited to murder, and the fact that he had died and come back to life would likely be considered abnormal and not publicly announced.

    Unless he found himself in the worst-case scenario, Su Xiao wouldn't need to flee abroad.

    Finding a place to settle down became his top priority. Su Xiao wasn't keen on staying in a hotel, as the constant flow of people made it unsuitable for long-term accommodation.

    Standing on a bustling street, Su Xiao felt hungry. He had been on the road for days without having a decent meal.

    He spotted a restaurant and ordered a local crab. May was the peak season for crabs, so the serving he received was exceptionally generous, with at least a pound more than usual.

    Cracking open the hard crab shell, he savored the secret sauce of the restaurant as he took a bite. The delicious taste spread throughout his mouth, and the smooth and tender crab meat delighted his taste buds with its unique seafood flavor, leaving a lasting impression.

    "Boss, the bill please," Su Xiao requested, setting down the last crab shell.

    The restaurant owner brought the bill and approached the table, but his expression turned somewhat horrified as he glanced at the pile of crab shells.

    "Uh...," the boss stuttered, taken aback by Su Xiao's voracious appetite. Su Xiao had consumed more than seven or eight servings, far exceeding the amount an average person could eat.

    Enhanced vitality meant that Su Xiao required more energy, as Power did not manifest without reason and demanded a substantial amount of energy.

    "The total is 789 dollars. You can give me 780," Su Xiao said, taking out several hundred-dollar bills and handing them to the boss.

    "Is there any nearby rental housing? I'm a student who just arrived here and needs a place to stay for a few months."

    The boss, holding his mobile phone, searched for a moment and pointed it towards Su Xiao. The screen displayed 'DL City Rental Network.'

    At that moment, the boss

    's gaze seemed to say, "Young people nowadays, no one looks for rentals on the streets anymore."

    Su Xiao chuckled, noted down the website, and left the restaurant.

    Walking along the bustling street, Su Xiao quickly scrolled through the website on his mobile phone. It was a local social networking site dedicated to housing agencies.

    After some time, he came across a peculiar listing.

    "Excellent location, convenient transportation, starting from 100,000 dollars per month."

    A monthly rent of 100,000 dollars in DL City was no small amount, but it was not uncommon either. What raised suspicion was the lack of detailed housing information, with only a phone number provided.

    Money was not an issue for Su Xiao, so he dialed the phone number directly. Considering the price of 100,000 dollars per month, the housing conditions should be exceptional, perhaps even luxurious.

    The call connected quickly, and a hoarse male voice answered.

    "Let's discuss this in person. 37 Tianhai Road."

    With that brief statement, the caller hung up.

    Su Xiao was momentarily stunned, shaking his head in annoyance. It seemed too troublesome.

    There could be hidden motives behind such an advertisement. The price of 100,000 dollars per month was peculiar, and he didn't want to involve himself in any potential complications. He decided to explore other options instead.
