Weird Live Broadcast: I Can Deduce Endlessly

Chapter 209: Ambush (1)

"He used black magic?"

Dennis quickly jumped out from cover and ran toward the nightclub.

This ambush operation couldn't afford any mistakes.

According to the plan, the police would begin the arrest immediately after Er Gou infiltrated the nightclub, catching him in a trap.

Constantine and Da Luoshan had been informed in advance that only a double would be attending the nightclub today, not the real Constantine. Although Er Gou was familiar with Constantine, he couldn't distinguish between the real and the fake without seeing Constantine's face.

Da Luoshan saw this as an opportunity to curry favor with the Son of God, so he volunteered to act as bait and cooperated with the police to ambush Er Gou.

Dennis's job was to cover the police and ensure that Er Gou saw the bait at the right time.

However, Er Gou's urgency was unexpected to Dennis.

When it came to his daughter, this man would become impulsive and angry, completely different from his usual cautious and cunning self.

As Dennis stepped out of cover to contact the police, he suddenly felt a chill in his chest. Looking down, he saw a knife tip protruding from his chest, blood dripping out.

"I've had my suspicions about you for a long time," Er Gou said. "You're too ruthless, using my daughter as bait?"

"Cough, cough—"

Dennis coughed up blood. Er Gou covered his mouth and dragged him to the roadside, then casually threw him into a trash bin.

Er Gou had been suspicious ever since Dennis tipped him off. But when he saw Da Luoshan flamboyantly arriving with "Constantine," Er Gou was sure it was a trap.

Firstly, both Da Luoshan and Constantine were high-level citizens who would never go to such a low-end nightclub. Even if they did, they would do so discreetly, not so publicly.

Secondly, no one could possibly know that Xiao Xue was his daughter. Due to the influence of the Rule Maker, no one in this world would notice that Xiao Xue was his daughter. Only those with the Mortician's inheritance or the Son of God could break this cognitive barrier.

The fact that Dennis knew Xiao Xue was his daughter was already suspicious. However, to be safe, Er Gou still followed Dennis.

To his surprise, Constantine actually showed up and even cooperated with the police to set up an ambush. Dennis probably knew about Xiao Xue's identity all along, and it must have been Constantine who told him.

Clearly, the higher-ups wanted to take action against him.

Er Gou took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off the dagger, staring blankly at the nightclub in front of him.

Now, it was already a blatant threat.

—If you don't come, your daughter will die; if you come, you might die.

Er Gou walked up to the nightclub's entrance, where two security guards blocked him.

"This is not a place for a low-level citizen like you."

"Get out of my way!"

Er Gou slapped the security guards twice and charged into the nightclub without hesitation.

The nightclub's thugs stepped out, one after another, and the door was heavily shut behind him. Er Gou glanced around, noticing the walls adorned with intricate runes and spatial interference devices.

It seemed the police already knew he could use the abilities of the Traveler Star people.

Who had leaked the secret?

He was sure he had never used this trick in front of outsiders.

"The game is up," Er Gou said coldly. "I'm Chen Zeyu. Let my daughter go."

Thud, thud.

Da Luoshan walked over with heavy steps, accompanied by Constantine's double.

"Heh, weren't you already dead?"

"But I've crawled back from hell."

"In that case, come with me, or don't blame us for being ruthless."

"Would you dare?"

Er Gou pulled out a pistol and aimed it at Da Luoshan.

Da Luoshan's eyes widened, but he calmly pulled out a person from behind him—Er Gou's daughter, Xiao Xue.

Xiao Xue stared at the dark muzzle of Er Gou's gun with eyes full of shock.

"Come on, shoot."

Da Luoshan chuckled coldly.

Undercover police officers disguised as staff members swarmed in, but Er Gou's shots were unfailingly accurate, instantly killing the two nearest officers with headshots.

As Da Luoshan marveled at Er Gou's shooting skills, he suddenly realized that Er Gou had already reached him.

Er Gou's arm passed through Da Luoshan's arm like a ghost and snatched Xiao Xue from his grasp.

"What the hell was that?"

Da Luoshan cursed under his breath and lunged at Er Gou like a boulder.

However, this move was completely ineffective against Er Gou, who remained untouchable, still moving like a ghost.

Bang!

Another gunshot rang out, and everyone turned to look.

The double's mask shattered into pieces, revealing a bullet hole in his head.

Er Gou saw that it was a fake and immediately realized he had killed an impostor.

"You bastard, you tricked me?"

Er Gou put away the pistol and slashed at his wrist with a dagger.

This time, he nearly severed his wrist completely. The nightclub had too many interference devices, so he had to sacrifice more to activate the Traveler Star's secret technique.

"He's trying to escape."

"Shoot him now!"

"It won't work."

Da Luoshan finally understood the principles of Er Gou's magic.

At that moment, Er Gou was both in the nightclub and not in the nightclub. It was a small trick the Traveler Star people used to use. They could fold space like origami, something ordinary people couldn't achieve.

"Ugh—"

Xiao Xue lay in Er Gou's arms, blood trickling from her ears as she muttered incoherently.

Er Gou's face turned pale with fear; he knew this was a sign that Xiao Xue couldn't withstand the pressure of spatial travel and her mental state was beginning to collapse.

"Don't listen to the voices!" Er Gou shouted. "Daddy will definitely get you out of here! Don't die, don't die!"

Er Gou lowered the efficiency of his magic output, his body gradually becoming more visible.

"Now, shoot him!"

Seeing the change, Da Luoshan immediately ordered the police to act.

At this point, capturing Er Gou alive was no longer an option; it was better to kill him on the spot than let him escape.

Er Gou shielded Xiao Xue with his body.

Not every bullet hit; only one out of twenty managed to strike Er Gou. However, the barrage was enough to cause significant damage.

Blood spurted everywhere as Er Gou kneeled on the ground, becoming a bloody mess.

Yet, his body started to become transparent again, indicating he was about to leave.

"Damn it, hurry up!"

Splat!

A dull sound echoed.

Out of nowhere, a brick appeared behind Er Gou, smashing his head open.

Da Luoshan stared in disbelief and saw that the figure holding the brick was none other than Dennis.

Both Er Gou and Xiao Xue's shadows vanished at the same time.

When the crowd pushed open the nightclub doors, they found Er Gou and Xiao Xue covered in blood near a trash bin. Dennis was standing by the trash bin, looking as pale as a ghost.

"Was that you just now?"

"It was me," Dennis calmly replied. "I pinpointed Er Gou's teleportation destination and took him out in advance."
