Twenty-seven people were killed.
No!
Including Chen Zhu Zhu, there are 28 people in total!
And, Eddie is dead too.
If we count Eddie, the number of people killed by the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction in Hong Kong has reached 29!
This is a truly terrifying number!
Qin Luo hadn't returned to the police station when he was called to the Police Headquarters.
The Police Headquarters is the highest administrative body of the Hong Kong police force.
And where the Chief Superintendent is located!
Qin Luo arrived at the Police Headquarters in the afternoon.
The Chief Superintendent, the Deputy Chief Superintendent… and the entire upper echelon met with Qin Luo.
And,
Under the strong recommendation of the West Kowloon Regional Commander, Qin Luo was assigned by the Chief Superintendent to the press conference, serving as the leader of this press conference.
Furthermore, Qin Luo was fully in charge of this case, from beginning to end!
All police forces in the six regional headquarters were to fully cooperate.
All of a sudden,
Qin Luo’s name became widely known.
Six o’clock in the afternoon.
At the scene of the Police Headquarters press conference,
Qin Luo sat in the main seat. He was wearing a police uniform, his eyes exceptionally sharp.
“Officer Qin, as the leader of the case, do you think your abilities are sufficient to solve this case?”
“Officer Qin, everyone says you are too young. This case is very important. Do you think you are capable of taking on this heavy responsibility?”
“Also, Officer Qin, can you reveal anything about the suspect…?”
“…”
The reporters kept asking questions.
Their words were also very sharp.
Some questioned Qin Luo’s youth, worrying that he wouldn't be able to solve the case.
Others wanted to know the details of the case…
Qin Luo faced countless sharp questions from the reporters and their doubts about his abilities.
He remained calm and composed, his eyes extremely sharp.
He stood up from his seat, his gaze piercing as he looked at the countless cameras and questioning faces in front of him.
He spoke slowly and clearly, with every word carrying weight.
“I have the confidence and the ability to solve this case!”
“Based on our investigation at the scene, the perpetrator is the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction from Japan!”
“They used the bodies of the victims to transport the twin lions, a cruel and inhuman act!
“As everyone knows, the Japanese are shameless and have no humanity. They are completely unworthy of being called human beings. This is not Season 2, nor the Qing Dynasty!”
“They have slaughtered our Hong Kong citizens, and we will make them pay the price for their blood debts, a heavy price!
“Furthermore, during the investigation and arrest process, we will not accept surrender, only immediate execution!”
“That is my attitude!”
“Those who offend China will be punished even if they are far away, the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction should prepare their necks…”
Qin Luo’s voice was firm and domineering.
It moved countless reporters, especially the phrase “those who offend China will be punished even if they are far away”, causing countless viewers to tear up, their hearts even boiling with excitement!
They couldn’t wait to go to Japan and chop the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction into a thousand pieces.
To avenge their dead countrymen!
“I didn't expect Officer Qin to be so resolute. His speech is truly inspiring!”
“Yes, he is only in his early twenties, but he has a heart filled with passion. He is admirable!”
“We support Officer Qin, execute the murderer, do not accept surrender!”
“That’s right, avenge our countrymen!”
“Blood for blood!”
“Blood for blood!”
“…”
All of a sudden!
The entire Hong Kong public was filled with anti-Japanese fervor.
Everyone was filled with hatred for the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction and Japan.
And Qin Luo, with his firm, unwavering, and tough image, was deeply ingrained in the hearts of countless people.
He became a hero and an idol for many, even though some in the upper echelon of the Police Headquarters were unhappy with Qin Luo’s speech.
However, they had to swallow their words because of the public’s support.
As public opinion fermented…
Yau Ma Tei,
Inside a Japanese restaurant.
Cai Cai Mizuko, who had escaped after being seriously injured, looked at Qin Luo on television, watching his firm and unwavering speech. Her face became increasingly cold.
“How dare he, he openly challenges our entire Nine Chrysanthemum Faction. Does he really think that by injuring me, he thinks he is invincible?”
“Ridiculous, and what strength does Hong Kong have to fight our great East Japan?”
“Ant-like creatures, they don’t know when to stop.”
“Cough, cough…”
Mizuko coughed repeatedly, coughing up a lot of blood, her excitement making her cough.
The bodyguard, Zhou Dali, who was standing nearby, immediately showed concern.
“Master, are you alright? Should we call for reinforcements from headquarters?”
“If our branch is broken, then this twin lion route will be completely ruined, which would be a huge loss for the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction.”
Zhou Dali asked in a low voice, not even daring to look at Mizuko.
Because he knew that he didn’t deserve to be looked at by her.
He was a normal person, even though he was a boxing expert and a world boxing champion.
But in the eyes of a cultivator, he was a lowly creature like an ant, insignificant.
“No need. If it wasn’t for him using a magic artifact, how could he possibly be my opponent.”
“That jade pendant’s rank should be a high-grade magic artifact, rare in the world!”
Mizuko narrowed her eyes, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
In the spiritual realm, weapons are divided into several ranks: mortal weapons, magic artifacts, spirit artifacts, magic treasures, and spirit treasures.
Each rank is further divided into four levels: low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and supreme grade.
And in the present era of declining spiritual energy, even a low-grade magic artifact is rare, let alone a high-grade one.
Especially a high-grade magic artifact imbued with spiritual energy, it is a standout amongst high-grade artifacts, comparable to a supreme grade artifact.
It is only privately kept by some large sects and powerful families.
However, no one would bring it out to avoid unnecessary trouble.
“Find a way to take his magic artifact, and even… kill him in front of the media!”
“Didn’t they say they want to capture us and make us pay blood for blood? Then kill Qin Luo, that way we can strike fear into their hearts and make them completely terrified, so that no one dares to oppose the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction!”
“It’s just killing some ordinary people, if they can be killed by us, it’s their honor.
“A bunch of ungrateful fools, they’re dead, so be it…”
Mizuko spoke coldly.
Clearly, she didn’t even care about Hong Kong.
It’s evident in her arrogance and condescending attitude as a cultivator.
Even killing ordinary people is like a trivial matter to her, she doesn’t care at all.
“Master, let me go. My martial arts skills are high, and I have self-awareness, unlike those walking corpses.” Zhou Dali thought for a moment and volunteered.
Mizuko’s fiery red lips were like poison, she slightly opened her lips, revealing a smile.
It made Zhou Dali’s heart beat faster.
“Don’t worry, it’s your turn soon.”
“Bring Eddie’s body, use him to lure Qin Luo here, I’ll set up the Ice Frost Corpse Formation and kill him here!”
“Then turn his body into a walking corpse, so that everyone in Hong Kong can see how miserably their star police officer died…”
“I think it will be very interesting!”
Mizuko was as ruthless as a viper.
Zhou Dali nodded and immediately carried Eddie’s body from outside.
Mizuko changed her clothes, wearing a ninja-like outfit embroidered with the Nine Chrysanthemum Faction’s emblem.
She led Zhou Dali to a deeper room, like a cave, with the floor covered in ice.
Mizuko sat on the ice, her fingers forming seals, her spiritual energy was thick and powerful.
In an instant!
A diamond-shaped ice spike condensed from the water and shot out.
She pointed her hand, and the ice spike pierced into Eddie’s head with a pop.
“Rise!”
Mizuko shouted coldly.
Whoosh!
Eddie’s eyes suddenly opened, his strong body suddenly stood upright from the ground.
His pupils actually reflected Qin Luo’s image.
This is!
Mizuko had imprinted Qin Luo’s image in his mind, so he would only attack Qin Luo!
“Go!”
“Lure Qin Luo over, and then kill some people in the street, the more commotion the better!”
Mizuko gave the order coldly.
“Yes, Master!”
Eddie nodded dumbly, his muscles bulged, like a killing machine.
He strode towards the city… towards Qin Luo’s location.
