Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

"Bang!"

Almost simultaneously, Xiao Zhan also pulled the trigger.

"Whoosh!"

The bullet fired by You Dajun grazed Xiao Zhan's ear...

Xiao Zhan could clearly feel the intense shock of the bullet whizzing past his ear and the burning heat as it grazed him...

"Bang!"

You Dajun's head suddenly exploded because Xiao Zhan's bullet hit his head.

The bullet entered right in the middle of his forehead, and the shockwave instantly shattered his head into pieces, a truly gruesome sight.

The two shots differed by mere millimeters, yet the results were worlds apart.

"thump."

You Dajun's body collapsed to the ground with a thud, dead...

Xiao Zhan stared at You Dajun's corpse on the ground and said in disbelief, "Wasn't he a sharpshooter?"

Yuan Hongjun: "I saw his hand shaking when he fired the gun."

Xiao Zhan squatted down, picked up the gun from You Dajun's hand, looked at it, and said, "Xia Keke said that You Dajun once won the police system's shooting competition, which means he is a sharpshooter."

Yuan Hongjun rolled his eyes and said, "Xiao Zhan, your bullet was a fraction of a second faster than You Dajun's, which may be why You Dajun's bullet deviated. You should feel lucky."

Xiao Zhan was about to speak,

suddenly,

"Rat-a-tat-tat..."

The roar of a helicopter could be heard outside.

Xiao Zhan stood up and looked towards the hotel entrance, saying, "Director Xia should have arrived."

at the same time,

A red Porsche Cayenne was parked in the alley behind the Changqing Futai Hotel.

There are no streetlights in this alley, or rather, they are broken, though the exact reason for their breakdown is unknown.

Only the faint reflection of distant neon lights revealed the Porsche parked under a large tree.

in the night sky,

An armed helicopter flew from a distance to the top floor of the Changqing Futai Hotel, as the building is a landmark in the county and the top floor can be used to park helicopters.

at this time,

Inside the helicopter cabin

As Xia Keke looked down, she suddenly noticed a red Porsche speeding out of the alley behind the hotel.

There was nothing particularly special about this, but Xia Keke was a top-level national security officer, and she immediately noticed the Porsche because it didn't have its headlights on.

Why don't you turn on your headlights at night?

Xia Keke immediately picked up her binoculars and observed from above. With the help of the 12x magnification binoculars, she saw that the driver was a woman in her thirties. She was dressed very fashionably and had a very elegant appearance. She was a sophisticated woman who was still charming and attractive, the kind of woman that would make any man take a second look.

A man, around forty or fifty years old, was sitting in the passenger seat, but he was dressed very casually.

As the helicopter circled in the air, the man in the co-pilot's seat looked up at the sky. Xia Keke was also observing him. Although the man couldn't see what was happening inside the cabin, he only glanced at it before quickly looking down and saying something to the woman. Xia Keke could read from his lip movements that he was telling the woman to drive faster.

Another point is that when the man looked up at the helicopter, Xia Keke saw a flash of panic in his eyes through her binoculars…

Do not turn on the headlights.

They noticed the helicopter looked panicked and told the driver to hurry up and drive.

This is very unusual.

Normal people wouldn't have this reaction.

At this moment, the pilot reported: "Director Xia, should we land now?"

Xia Keke: "Don't land yet, fly a little higher and keep an eye on that red Porsche below."

The pilot immediately understood and said, "Understood."

"boom."

The pilot immediately increased the throttle and pushed the control stick to pull the helicopter into the air, then focused on the speeding Porsche.

Xia Keke took out her phone and called Xiao Zhan.

"Beep beep beep..."

The call connected quickly, and Xia Keke spoke first: "Xiao Zhan, we spotted a suspicious vehicle driving out of the alley behind the hotel. There was a man and a woman in the car; the man looked to be in his forties or fifties, and the woman was about thirty years old."

Xiao Zhan: "Is there anything suspicious about them?"

Xia Keke: "The other party was driving at night without their headlights on. The man looked a little flustered when he saw the helicopter and told the woman to drive faster. I think this couple is very likely related to the You family, and may even be You Changqing's confidants."

Xiao Zhan sneered, "You Changqing and his wife, along with their eldest daughter and her husband, have all been captured by us. You Dajun, the eldest son of the You family, was shot dead by me a minute ago."

Xia Keke asked with surprise and concern, "You killed You Dajun? Were you injured?"

At this moment, Xiao Zhan held the identification documents he had taken from You Dajun and said with a hint of smugness, "I was unharmed. The bullet You Dajun fired whizzed past my ear, and I was completely unscathed. You Dajun is now lying at my feet."

"Hehe, I blew his head off."

"The identification he carried proved that he was You Dajun."

Xia Keke asked again in surprise, "Does You Dajun have personal work identification on him?"

Xiao Zhan: "Yes, what's so strange about that?"

Xia Keke: "Xiao Zhan, from what I understand, You Dajun is usually arrogant and domineering. This is not only his hometown but also his jurisdiction. How could he possibly carry identification with him? Is he afraid of being investigated? Or is he afraid his subordinates won't recognize him as the executive deputy director of the municipal bureau? And most importantly, although his marksmanship is not as good as yours, a top sniper, he might not necessarily lose to you in a close-quarters hand-to-hand pistol duel."

Xiao Zhan stared at the corpse on the ground and said, "Director Xia, you're not saying that the You Dajun I personally killed was a fake, are you?"

On the helicopter,

Xia Keke stared at the Porsche speeding below and said, "Xiao Zhan, I have my doubts. Search You Dajun again carefully to see if he is an imposter. Don't let yourself be caught off guard. Don't forget, the pieces on Liu Shiyuan's chessboard are all masters of disguise."

"Better safe than sorry."

Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice, "Alright."

Xiao Zhan hung up the phone, ignoring the blood on the corpse, and reached out to touch You Dajun's face, which was already torn to pieces.

suddenly,

Xiao Zhan's expression changed drastically because he felt the traces of a human skin mask where the corpse's neck and face connected. Although it was not visible to the naked eye, he could still feel a tiny imprint when he touched it carefully with his fingers.

Xiao Zhan gently picked at the thin mark with his fingers, then suddenly exerted force with his fingers.

Sizzle!

A tattered, thin, human skin mask was peeled off.

"Damn, it really is a fake You Dajun."

Yuan Hongjun, who had been standing by watching, was also dumbfounded.

Xiao Zhan quickly dialed Xia Keke's number and said, "Director Xia, this corpse is indeed the imposter You Dajun."

Xia Keke: "My intuition tells me that the man and woman in the Porsche are very suspicious. I suggest we stop them immediately for a check, or at worst I'll apologize."

at this time,

Xiao Zhan didn't have any good solutions.

But he believed in Xia Keke's deductions and intuition.

As it turns out, Xia Keke was right many times before.

So he said, "Director Xia, stop the car immediately for inspection. Send me the location of the Porsche. You will be responsible for tracking and intercepting it from the air, and I will rush over from the ground. Let's work together from the air and see what kind of skills You Dajun has to escape our joint pursuit."
