Chapter 167 Provoked
This is a face that is difficult to describe in words. She puts Li Xia's finger near her lips and extends her tongue to lick off the oil on it.
A pair of eyes like black diamonds, reflecting Li Xia's figure.
At this moment, Li Xia felt a surge of excitement, as if his head was buzzing and his mind went blank.
"Hey, you SAO guy!" Mizusawa Ryo slapped her.
Kimura Shizuka raised her head, and Mizusawa Ryo's slap missed, landing on the blank-minded Li Xia with a loud "smack".
"Damn!" Li Xia felt the pain, regained his senses, and turned to look at Mizusawa Ryo, angrily asking, "Why did you hit me?"
Akane also bit Kimura Shizuka from the side.
Her gaze never left Li Xia, but her body took a step back to avoid Akane's attack.
At the same time, she put two fingers on her tongue and slid them down, with glistening saliva coating her fingers.
With her fingers coated in saliva, she blew a kiss towards Li Xia and then disappeared into the crowd.
"What are you doing?" Li Xia yelled while holding onto Akane, "Forget it, Akane, this is someone else's territory."
Akane's face was filled with anger, like a protective dog, showing teeth as she watched Kimura Shizuka leave.
Li Xia still had a puzzled expression on his face. What did she do to him? She shouldn't have stopped teasing. Why did she just lick once and leave?
"Don't pay attention to that dangerous person," Mizusawa Ryo's face didn't look good as she reached out and pulled Akane back.
"Throw that person's image out of your mind."
"No, what does she mean by doing all of this!" Li Xia couldn't believe that she didn't want to talk about it.
He looked at his fingers, as if they still had the strange sensation from when Kimura Shizuka licked them.
In his mind, her gaze, her expression when she left, and her incomprehensible behavior.
All of these felt like little cat claws, scratching at his heart, making it itch badly.
"Smack!" Mizusawa Ryo slapped him on the head again.
Li Xia winced in pain, covering his head, only then did he calm down slightly. He almost fell into Kimura Shizuka's trap just now.
"Are you calmer now?" Mizusawa Ryo pouted. "She doesn't get along well with Kirigiri Shimizu, and her intentions towards you are not pure. You better be careful."
Li Xia paused, murmuring, "Does Kirigiri Shimizu have any good connections?"
Mizusawa Ryo was taken aback by the question, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, he reluctantly said, "Well... she probably has a good relationship with Mama Ran."
"Forget it, don't force it. I can probably guess," Li Xia said as he sat back at the counter, picking up her beer. With Kirigiri Shimizu's terrible personality, it's possible she truly has no friends.
On the other side, Kirigiri Shimizu gripped the steering wheel with both hands, while Komachi Kurenai sat in the passenger seat, one hand covering her shoulder as blood trickled from between her fingers.
Chen Huijie sat in the backseat, her face equally grim. She cautiously peered out from the rearview mirror to assess the situation behind the car and said, "We've shaken them off!"
She turned to look at Komachi Kurenai and glanced at her wound, saying, "We need to find a place to remove the bullet casing and dress the wound."
Kirigiri Shimizu continued to drive, silent but with an unprecedentedly gloomy expression on her face.
After a moment, she spoke, "We can't go to the Special Affairs Bureau."
Chen Huijie was momentarily taken aback, then quickly understood what she meant and hastily said, "I know a trustworthy doctor."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Kirigiri Shimizu.
Kirigiri Shimizu glanced at Komachi Kurenai, whose face had grown even paler due to the gunshot wound in her arm.
"Thank... thank you," Kirigiri Shimizu forced out the words.
"No need, we're partners!" Chen Huijie didn't pay much attention to it and pointed in a direction.
In her eyes, Kirigiri Shimizu was the person who had always helped her complete tasks, so she was definitely a teammate worth entrusting.
Under the guidance, the two of them arrived at an acupuncture shop and carried Komachi Kurenai in through the back door.
They were greeted by a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit.
"My name is Ueno Douji." Ueno Douji wasted no time and, after introducing himself, led Komachi Kurenai into an operating room.
"Let's go outside first." Chen Huijie gestured towards the door, "His surgical skills are on par with those of Tokyo Hospital. It's safe to entrust Komachi Kurenai to him."
Kirigiri Shimizu glanced at the operating room once more and left with Chen Huijie.
"What kind of people attacked us?" Chen Huijie asked.
The two had originally planned to go to the police station to access surveillance footage, hoping to find out where Li Xia had gone.
But as soon as they reached the parking lot, they were attacked by a group of men in black, and Komachi Kurenai was shot in the arm.
Fortunately, Chen Huijie was skilled in knife combat, and after swiftly stabbing two of the attackers, they made their escape by car.
"Special Affairs Bureau, the assassination unit." Kirigiri Shimizu showed no emotion, "Captain Kimura Shizuka."
"Special Affairs Bureau?" Chen Huijie furrowed her brow. After getting to know Kirigiri Shimizu, she had learned some information about the Special Affairs Bureau.
This is a special organization under the Metropolitan Police Department, but not under its command.
It specializes in handling tasks related to subhumans, with extremely high authority and the power to temporarily mobilize all the forces of the Metropolitan Police Department for assistance.
Chen Huijie doesn't want to get involved with this kind of secret agency.
"Why are they after you?"
"I don't know," Kirigiri Shimizu shook her head.
"What do we do now?" Chen Huijie feels like she's been caught up in a big conspiracy.
The waters are deep in here, and she may not be able to handle it.
But she's not naive enough to think that she can just walk away from something like this. Those men in black have no mercy with their guns.
"Go there," Kirigiri Shimizu's eyes turned dangerous.
Chen Huijie feels like the temperature around her has dropped a few degrees in this oppressive atmosphere.
In this tense atmosphere, Ueno Douji comes out of the operating room, taking off his surgical gown while saying, "The surgery went smoothly. She'll be fine after resting for a month."
"Thank you," Chen Huijie quickly thanks him.
Kirigiri Shimizu went straight into the operating room.
Komachi Kurenai lay on the hospital bed, looking uneasy. When she saw Kirigiri Shimizu enter, she seemed to find solace.
She tried to sit up, her voice weak: "Captain, what's the next step?"
Kirigiri Shimizu walked up to her and gently pushed her back down, speaking in a cold tone: "Just get some rest. When you wake up, it will all be over."
"Okay," Komachi Kurenai clearly trusted Kirigiri Shimizu. She relaxed her expression, felt drowsy, and soon closed her eyes.
Kirigiri Shimizu walked out of the operating room, followed closely by Chen Huijie.
Meanwhile, at the bar, Li Xia, Mizusawa Ryo, and Akane finally finished eating five pounds of roast beef. They patted their satisfied stomachs.
"Kimura Shizuka is part of the assassination group. Ryo, what group are you in?" Li Xia casually asked.
Mizusawa Ryo looked smug after hearing it, patting her chest with his hand: "We're the assault team, responsible for team operations. In terms of overall combat strength in direct confrontations, we are the strongest."
