Chapter 261: Encirclement
"So soon?"
Yu Lingxin was momentarily stunned upon hearing Zhou Yingting's words, then her eyes narrowed.
Thus, Zhou Yingting was about to head out to deal with that guy?
"Yes, the person has been found, I'm going to check it out."
Zhou Yingting nodded and went to the side to prepare his weapons.
He needed to take the weapon with inscriptions; the sword had a flying inscription on it, and if something unexpected happened and he couldn't win, he could use the sword to escape.
Additionally, he needed to prepare another Han Sword for fighting the enemy.
After accomplishing these tasks, Zhou Yingting headed towards the garage.
Yu Lingxin quickly followed a few steps, looking anxiously at Zhou Yingting, and said, "Brother, be careful. If anything seems wrong, just run. Don't be heroic."
Although she had witnessed Zhou Yingting's capabilities, Yu Lingxin was still somewhat worried.
If that guy turned out to be too strong, it would be problematic.
For Zhou Yingting's safety, naturally, she didn't want to see him taking risks.
Zhou Yingting was already at the car. He heard her words and, as he put the weapons in the back seat, replied, "Don't worry, there shouldn't be much trouble with those people helping."
"If there's really any danger, I know to run."
As Zhou Yingting spoke, he was already in the car and then started it, leaving home and heading swiftly to the location Liu Feiyu provided.
The neighboring province wasn't far from here, and it would take less than an hour on the highway.
Liu Feiyu was waiting for Zhou Yingting ten miles away from the destination.
After driving to the location, Zhou Yingting first saw Liu Feiyu.
"How's it going? Is everyone here?"
Some others had gone to prepare weapons, leaving three people to monitor to prevent the opponent's escape.
It took Zhou Yingting an hour to drive here, so those people should have prepared the weapons.
Thinking this, Zhou Yingting glanced at Liu Feiyu beside him.
"Everything is ready. Let's discuss over here how to deal with this guy."
Liu Feiyu said, beckoning Zhou Yingting to gather at the nearby open area.
On the open ground, a few people were already standing there, seemingly preparing for something.
Seeing this, Zhou Yingting immediately walked over.
As soon as the few people saw Zhou Yingting coming, they spoke up, "You're Zhou Yingting, who just joined, right? Qi Heng."
"Wu Zhongyi."
"Fang You."
Seeing Zhou Yingting approach, the few people also began to introduce themselves consecutively.
Zhou Yingting nodded at them and then stepped forward.
At this point, a map was laid out in front of them, with the enemy's location already marked on it.
"This guy is hiding in an apartment building?"
Zhou Yingting took a look at the map where the enemy's location was marked: Room 1 on the 17th floor.
If that's the case, it's a bit troublesome.
Fighting inside the apartment complex could unintentionally harm other ordinary people, which would indeed be troublesome.
In this way, they would inevitably be cautious in their actions.
"Yes, it's in a community. We've tracked the opponent, and there's no mistake."
Upon hearing this, Fang You nodded, his finger pointing on the map, confirming the opponent's precise location.
"There should be others in the building, right? If there are ordinary people, we're afraid it'll be tough to act. If any of them are injured..."
Zhou Yingting said, furrowing his brow.
Speaking of which, during combat, it might impact the building, causing damage—this can be managed.
If all of them are here, at worst, they can pool money to compensate for damages. Not a big deal.
But if ordinary people were affected, that's troublesome.
If there were serious injuries or fatalities, it would be even more problematic.
If the 14th Bureau knew, they would inevitably intervene.
"It's work hours now; there aren't many people in the building. Most are not at home; I've checked, no need to worry."
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhongyi quickly reassured.
Zhou Yingting listened but was still somewhat hesitant, "Are you sure there won't be collateral damage to ordinary people? If there's any, it would indeed be troublesome."
"Should we notify the 14th Bureau?"
If the opponent was hiding somewhere deserted, they could act without concern.
But given the current situation...
"This guy came out from a mission; we helped the 14th Bureau deal with him. Even if damage is caused, they won't have much to say."
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhongyi scoffed a few times.
"My child had their life stolen by this guy. Your relatives and friends had their lives taken too, why didn't the 14th Bureau stop it?"
"Now that we've found the culprit, solved it for them, they should be grateful."
Listening to this, Wu Zhongyi seemed quite dissatisfied with the 14th Bureau.
Conceivably, it was because they thought the Bureau didn't stop this guy in time when he came out from a mission, prevent their lives from being stolen.
"It's not good to notify the 14th Bureau. Since the opponent can steal lives, maybe there's a way to return them."
"Wu Zhongyi's child had their life stolen and has already turned into a seventy or eighty-year-old man, so it's essential to find this guy personally to see if there's a solution."
