110: Sudden rise, rush in!

Su Yue was a hundred percent certain that the person in front of him was definitely one of Wang Lin's henchmen.

Just by looking into the other person's eyes, Su Yue confirmed this.

Ordinary people are full of reverence for the lives of others; they have a clear distinction between looking at people and looking at animals.

Even a butcher whose profession is killing cannot bring himself to harm a human when facing one.

This is what is commonly said, 'grieving for one's kind,' it is a biological instinct.

Just as an ordinary person seeing a car accident scene might find it stimulating and want to look, they are actually filled with fear and dread inside.

Wanting to look is due to the natural curiosity in human nature. Fear is a biological instinct. It is this instinct that drives organisms to seek advantages and avoid harm.

For example, ancient humans learned to store food for winter because they saw their kind freeze to death in winter due to lack of clothing and food.

Humans without this instinct died out long ago because they didn't learn from their mistakes, and not a single gene was passed down. What remains are those with this 'grieving for one's kind' gene; modern society has given this gene a name: kindness.

This kindness is what is referred to in 'Man's nature is originally good.'

This instinct is carried in the genes; to change it requires conscious effort.

That is, killing!

Therefore, identifying an anti-humanist, or a potential serial killer, is actually very simple.

Show them extremely gruesome photos of humans; if their reaction is not fear, sadness, or even various physiological repulsions, but rather excitement, then this person should be listed as one of the animals to absolutely avoid.

And the first moment Su Yue saw this man, he saw that indifference towards the lives of his own kind in his eyes. Because it was obvious that the moment he saw Su Yue, he had already weighed whether to deal with this uninvited guest by driving him away or by directly killing him to end it all.

This is the so-called look of a murderer.

The other party has definitely killed people, and not just one!

Although facing a ruthless desperado who kills without blinking, Su Yue felt no fear at all.

Murderers are also people; at least from a physiological standpoint, they still possess human characteristics.

If he is a person, he has weaknesses.

For example, at this very moment, facing Su Yue's suspicious questioning, the other party clearly showed panic.

The other party having this emotion meant that Su Yue had gained psychological dominance.

"I'm new here, haven't had time to get to know people in the company. But I have indeed heard of Uncle Wang, the billing king," the fierce man said, trying to cover up.

"Oh, really?" Su Yue glanced at the other party suspiciously, "My uncle did say the company hired a newcomer to cover for him, but I heard he was a young man."

"Haha, in Uncle Wang's eyes, who isn't a young punk?" the fierce man chuckled, "What are you looking for Uncle Wang for?"

"Oh, my uncle told me to come to the billing office around nine to get something for him, didn't expect him not to be here," Su Yue muttered, standing at the door and peeking into the billing office.

"Get what?" The fierce man was clearly getting impatient.

"I don't know, he said it was in his desk drawer," Su Yue said with a face full of frustration, "Big Brother, do you know where my uncle went? His phone's not getting through either, and my friend is waiting outside."

The fierce man was slightly startled. He glanced at the desk beside him and hesitated, "How about you come in and look for it yourself?"

"Alright," Su Yue said with feigned hesitation, but nodded with satisfaction in his heart.

He knew that the man in front of him had been very wary of him all along, and he had not given up the idea of directly killing him from the beginning until just now.

This was probably the other party's usual way of dealing with certain unknown threats: simple, direct, and brutal.

However, his unconventional method of turning the tables had dispelled the other party's doubts; the other party no longer suspected that he was really here looking for the staff member, that Uncle Wang who God knows if he even exists.

Of course, this did not completely eliminate the other party's killing intent, as these people also knew that their identities absolutely could not be exposed, especially with a kidnapping ongoing inside and Police investigating the smuggling group.

At this critical juncture, their first choice was also to nip any possible threat in the bud. What truly made the other party abandon this idea was Su Yue's unintentional remark, "my friend is waiting outside."

Without knowing the reaction of Su Yue's friend, directly killing him was no longer a good option, which is why the other party seemed so accommodating.

Clearly, he planned to quickly send him away.

Of course, this further indicated that the other party was a desperado, because any legitimate staff member, even if they didn't work here, would know that the billing area is a restricted zone and entry is prohibited.

Su Yue swaggered into the billing office, casually pulled open a drawer, and rummaged through it, while the fierce man watched him with cold eyes.

He raised his head and smiled sheepishly, "Looks like it's not in this drawer. Big Brother, could you please move over?"

"What?" The fierce man was suddenly startled.

Su Yue didn't speak, just smiled apologetically at the fierce man and pointed in front of him. The fierce man subconsciously lowered his head to look and reacted.

He was currently sitting at the billing desk; clearly, this was the workstation of the so-called Uncle Wang, so the two drawers on the desk also belonged to him.

He turned his head back impatiently and moved aside. Su Yue then stepped forward apologetically and pulled open the drawer past the fierce man's body.

As soon as the drawer was pulled open, an employee ID was revealed. The fierce man subconsciously lowered his head to glance at the young face on the ID, then looked up in confusion, "You..."

Just as he spoke a sentence, his body suddenly twitched violently, and a cracking sound came from his back.

With a 'thud,' the fierce man fell straight off the chair, landing on the ground. His entire body began to convulse, and he made involuntary gurgling sounds in his throat, looking at Su Yue with a gaze full of shock and anger.

Clearly, he hadn't expected that after so many years walking in the dark, he would be tripped up by a young punk like Su Yue.

He struggled to sit up, his right hand even twitching as it reached for his waist, but before he could make another move, Su Yue had already bent down.

The shy smile he had worn like a student's had completely disappeared, replaced by a look of calmness and composure.

He looked down at the fierce man from above, his fingers moved slightly, and a low cracking sound was heard.

It was only then that the fierce man realized Su Yue was holding a stun gun in his hand, and a faint blue electric light was flickering at the tip of the stun gun.

The next second, the stun gun was jabbed into the fierce man's chest again, and the fierce man's entire body convulsed once more.

Su Yue held the switch down for a full ten seconds before straightening up, and by this time, the fierce man was completely unable to get up.

He lightly kicked the other party's head with the tip of his shoe and nodded with satisfaction.

The stun gun in his hand was purchased from the System Mall; apart from being ten times more expensive than a normal one and having slightly higher current, there was nothing else remarkable about it.

Due to current limitations, this type of stun gun is difficult to cause real harm to the human body, but it uses hundreds of thousands of volts of high voltage electricity to instantly paralyze the opponent's muscles and nerves, and cause spasms in key organs such as the heart, leading to shock.

The shock time is not long, only a few minutes to ten minutes, after which the other party will return to a lively state.

However, Su Yue didn't care about this; he was an intelligence operative, not a killer. Even if this person was utterly wicked, killing him was a matter for Police or his enemies; Su Yue would not stain his hands with anyone's blood for matters unrelated to himself.

Moreover, having this person awake was more beneficial to Su Yue; Su Yue needed him to convey the message that he had arrived to Wang Lin at a crucial moment.

He casually turned on the switch of the computer screen in front of him, and the next second, more than a dozen surveillance images appeared before Su Yue's eyes.

He quickly scanned the surveillance footage and nodded with satisfaction.

When he had suddenly entered the entrance of the billing office earlier, he had already seen the surveillance inside, and also seen this fierce man on the ground casually turning off the computer screen.

This also aligned with Su Yue's guess; after all, the billing office is, in a sense, a control center for the market, so it's normal to have surveillance that can check where customers have gone and what goods they have pulled in real time.

He glanced at the fierce man on the ground again, then went straight out of the billing office and swaggered towards the depths of the seafood market.

As he walked, he pressed the talk switch on his earpiece: "Inside the seafood market, there are about thirteen henchmen in total, and they all seem to have weapons!"

"The henchman closest to you is at the fifth shaft; you can advance to the fourth shaft, then wait for my signal!"

"Also," he continued in a low voice, "Wang Lin and the hostage, Lin Jia, are by the cold storage control panel in the seafood market, confirmed!"

Yes, he had just seen Wang Lin and Lin Jia on the surveillance; from the footage, Lin Jia had not suffered any harm at this time, and in fact, she was seemingly having a pleasant conversation with Wang Lin.

This was very good news for Su Yue; clearly, Lin Jia was a smart person, she knew how to preserve her life as much as possible and buy time in a dangerous situation.

Su Yue took a deep breath.

Although he had appeared calm when facing that fierce man just now, in fact, he knew very well that the situation he was about to face was extremely dangerous!

The other side had a full thirteen henchmen; although he had taken down one, the remaining twelve were not good people either!

Furthermore, he had only temporarily incapacitated the thug they had placed at the entrance as a sentry; he had not lost his combat ability.

Whether he could rescue Lin Jia and get out safely, from now on, depended on whether everything could develop according to his plan!
