"Shit, did I cripple him?"
Wang Ye shook his slightly aching right hand abruptly, his eyes full of surprise.
Before he punched, he truly didn’t expect his Tai Chi punch to unleash such astonishing power.
Actually sent the man flying away.
Originally, he just wanted to teach him a lesson.
Well, now, even if he’s not disabled, he won’t escape aftereffects.
Wang Ye hesitated for a moment before turning away.
"Forget it, let’s first check on Wang Liquan’s situation."
Although this staircase passage was narrow and cramped, filled with many turns and obstacles.
These barriers could greatly block his Five Senses, weakening his Perception Ability.
But Wang Ye, relying on his much-enhanced olfactory organs, could still vaguely smell the scent of Wang Liquan and the murderer and determine their position through the strength and location of the scent.
He could roughly sense that Wang Liquan still maintained a relatively normal breathing and heartbeat. He was hiding in a room thirty meters away from the murderer and seemed a bit tense.
Meanwhile, the knife-wielding murderer was tirelessly searching for Wang Liquan in the narrow passage, unaware that his boss had already been knocked down by Wang Ye.
Wang Ye rapidly advanced while sensing the situation around Wang Liquan.
About three minutes ago, Wang Liquan hid in the cleaning room and reported to the police, the police cars nearby should be arriving soon.
Normally, there should be police cars on standby in various areas of the city center. As long as someone calls the police, the station would immediately notify the nearest police car to rush to the scene, this efficiency is usually within five minutes. Of course, except for special times and remote suburbs.
But even if the police are highly efficient, given the hotel’s complicated internal space, it would take at least five more minutes for the police to fully capture the murderer from the moment they arrive.
These five minutes seem short, but if the police were to arrive, Wang Liquan’s body would probably have already gone cold.
These murderers were clearly seasoned veterans who often walked in the dark areas, killing without hesitation.
Wang Ye planned to knock out the last murderer before the police arrived and leave quietly.
He didn’t want to delay his marathon race because of this troublesome issue.
If taken by the police for questioning or anything, it would delay him for several days at least.
Thinking of this, Wang Ye immediately quickened his Rapid Step, each stride even exceeding three meters.
But even though his speed reached such a level, he still didn’t make the slightest footstep sound, his entire movement was eerily smooth, as if he had really turned into a ghost gliding across the floor.
Earlier when he defeated the boss with the goatee, he utilized the silent trait of Rapid Step to achieve a surprise effect.
Thanks to his walking technique honed to perfection, the sound from his feet stepping on the ground was minimized to the extreme by him, unless someone listened with their ear to the ground. Otherwise, with normal hearing, it was difficult to detect the sound of his walking.
And his developed olfactory and auditory organs were the perfect tools for pursuit in this narrow, dark space.
Even without using his eyes, he could use the [Throwing] skill to precisely hit the target.
Therefore, in such a narrow, dark space, his abilities could truly be maximized.
Quickly,
Wang Ye used his sense of smell to precisely capture the scent of the murderer.
"It’s at the corner twenty meters ahead."
He blended into the darkness with the help of the light from outside the window, his eyes in the dark were pitch black but glimmered with an eerie glow. With a sudden flick of his hand, a chopstick appeared out of thin air.
Gradually he locked onto the target ten meters ahead.
Because the blood within the human body flows continuously, the position of the acupuncture points that cause unconsciousness would gradually shift with time.
The skills in TV shows where a mere strike at the back of the neck can cause instant unconsciousness require a lot of practice; such skills not only require strong arm strength but also decisive judgment and seasoned experience. Otherwise, such a strike might end up killing rather than knocking out.
Despite having almost no real battle experience, Wang Ye could always pinpoint the location of the acupuncture point with his keen perception.
Wang Ye’s arm gradually gathered strength.
The muscles and bones within were stretched to the limit, the tension tightened to an exceedingly high degree,
like a bow.
As soon as released, it could explode with unimaginable power.
Snap!!!
Instantly.
The chopstick catapulted out, hitting the murderer’s neck and blocking the blood flow of his carotid artery.
In just a breath, that murderer lost consciousness, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground.
The folding knife in his hand also fell to the ground with a "clack."
...
Meanwhile, in a cleaning room on the third floor of the hotel.
Wang Liquan was wearing his wedding suit, sweat soaking his collar, with a fruit knife he found from somewhere in his hand.
He crouched in the small cleaning room, carefully observing the outside situation through the glass of the door.
"Why haven’t the police arrived yet..."
Just as Wang Liquan was muttering to himself.
Suddenly, he heard a piercing sound outside the door.
He quickly looked towards the source of the sound and saw the murderer chasing him being hit by something, falling to the ground unconscious.
While in another part of the darkness, a familiar figure was hidden.
"He was the one who took down the murderer?"
Wang Liquan’s eyes widened in shock.
The unique aura of that figure felt extremely familiar to him.
Absolutely one of the relatives or friends attending today’s wedding banquet.
But the alcohol in his brain still hadn’t entirely dissipated, making it impossible for him to recall the true identity of that figure.
Wang Liquan held his breath and continued to watch that unknown person gradually leave.
He still dared not step out of the cleaning room.
He remembered there were a total of three murderers, and he had only seen two fall.
Which meant one murderer remained at large.
Thinking of this, Wang Liquan swallowed nervously, his gaze tense.
He wouldn’t take a step out of the cleaning room until the police arrived.
In a blink, a few minutes passed.
Loud sirens sounded downstairs, and soon batch after batch of police began searching upstairs.
It wasn’t long before Wang Liquan in the cleaning room was rescued and taken to a police car.
While sitting in the police car, Wang Liquan’s lips were still pale and colorless.
The sense of narrowly escaping death still lingered in his mind.
