Super Soldier in the City

Chapter 2448 - 2512: Refusing to Die

The speaker was the woman exuding a cold breath. Her face was still somewhat flushed, excited for some unknown reason, perhaps due to a special emotional connection with Aoki Takeshi, so when he was excited, she also got excited.Of course, it could be for other reasons. Anyway, when she spoke, Aoki Takeshi’s forceful grip loosened, he expelled a heavy breath, glared at Aoki Ryota with bloodshot eyes, and said fiercely, "Tell me your backup plan, or else..."

"Or else you’ll kill me? Dear nephew, I don’t know how you’ve been bewitched by this woman, but actually... if you weren’t like this, when I retire, this group might rightfully fall into your hands, after all, Reiko isn’t very interested in managing the group’s affairs, and you’re my only nephew, if not you then who? Of course, I never said these things to you because I thought you would understand without me saying so, unfortunately, it seems you don’t understand! I feared telling you too early would affect your mind, making you complacent..."

"Stop your nonsense, I won’t believe a word you say!" Aoki Takeshi scolded, "You can choose to talk, or not... if it’s the latter, I guarantee you’ll die painfully, just like my poor mother, very painfully!"

Faced with this paranoid madman, Aoki Ryota had no other choice. He wanted to buy some time for an opportunity, but... it was very difficult. This woman was incredibly cautious; after taking him away, she not only went down into the sewers but also into the subway. Although he left clues... could the bodyguards trace them?

Aoki Ryota had done his utmost to leave clues; as long as they could track him to the subway, to find him...

Thump, seeing Aoki Ryota unwilling to speak, Aoki Takeshi mercilessly punched him in the stomach.

"Talk!" Aoki Takeshi panted heavily, threatening loudly.

"Even if I tell you, there’s no solution, dear nephew, turn back now. No matter how powerful the woman behind you is, against that backup, there’s still no way."

"Ha, hahaha!" Aoki Takeshi laughed loudly, arrogant to the extreme, after laughing, he said, "You think I’m alone? You think I have no background? Aoki Ryota, even though you’ve calculated all your life, this time you’ve miscalculated!"

Hearing this, Aoki Ryota felt a bit sorrowful again; he coughed twice, sighed, and said, "All the things you’ve done... if I hadn’t cleaned up after you, you would have been arrested by the government a long time ago, yet you still have the audacity to talk."

"Haha, my partners dealing with a government is incredibly easy, Aoki Ryota, stop being self-righteous. Without you, my business wouldn’t stop, and of course, it would get better and better."

"You’re insane, truly insane, and you’ve been that way since back then." Aoki Ryota said.

"Shh, it’s best not to repeat such words. I’m fine now, very fine, and the thought of personally killing you makes me feel even better, hahaha!"

This madman! Aoki Ryota felt a sense of helplessness inside, yet suddenly the opponent leaned in close, showing a sinister face, "So your backup is..."

"Noah’s Ark Organization, a mad and anarchic organization. If you associate with them, even if I die and you gain leadership of Aoki Group, you’ll lead the group to ruin, to mad ruin."

"Old man, you know too much!" the woman spoke.

"It doesn’t matter, he’s just a dead man anyway, don’t be nervous. In fact, telling him more doesn’t matter. Aoki Ryota, you’re right, I indeed collaborated with people from the Noah’s Ark Organization, and they’re conducting a mad research project. Once it’s successful, the whole world will fall into madness... no, not madness, it should be evolution, yes, evolution of beauty."

"Biochemical virus?" Aoki Ryota’s face changed.

"No, no, not like the biochemical virus in movies, haha, you don’t need to know this, all you need to know is that under my leadership, Aoki Group will reach unprecedented glory, moving from small Japan to the world, becoming a globally prominent group!"

"Insane, you’re insane, if only I knew you’d become like this, back then I would have..."

"Would have killed me? So you did have such thoughts!"

"No, I regret not stopping you from collaborating with that Noah’s Ark Organization, if I’d known you’d become like this, I’d never have allowed it, I never thought of killing you, Aoki Takeshi, wake up!"

"Bang, bang!" Two fists landed on Aoki Ryota’s face, leaving him dizzy and probably with a broken nose, Aoki Takeshi’s roar echoed by his ears: "Why should I wake up? Old man, I’m more awake than ever, I know what I’ve chosen, it’s a bright new life, haha, soon I’ll be a globally recognized person, of course, one among many!"

"Cough... you madman, you won’t get away with this!"

"Since you still won’t reveal your backup, then... Aoki Ryota, I’ve lost my patience too, prepare to die!" Aoki Takeshi could no longer contain himself and decided to kill Aoki Ryota first.

Was this how he’d end? Aoki Ryota knew he had no ability to resist, even without that woman, even if Aoki Takeshi had no strange powers, he probably couldn’t outfight him, oh well, dying at the hands of Aoki Takeshi, though unwilling, was... better than other ways.

Aoki Ryota gave up resistance, Aoki Takeshi’s hand gripped his throat, as he said, "I warned you about having a backup plan, you kept saying you trusted me, yet left a backup plan, I have to see what it is!"

Sigh, Aoki Ryota closed his eyes, prepared to embrace death.

"Boom!" A loud crash, just as Aoki Takeshi was about to deliver the killing blow to Aoki Ryota, the door of the room they were in was kicked open by someone, the cold woman and Aoki Takeshi instantly turned around to see a man stride in, a mocking smile on his face.

"How did you find this place?" Aoki Takeshi questioned instinctively, sensing the strong vibe from Li Yifei, the cold woman’s expression changed, the flush on her face faded, her dead fish eyes stared directly at Li Yifei, after a few seconds, she said, "Is this your backup plan?"

"That’s right, hehe, Yifei, you finally came!" Aoki Ryota, though in a wretched state, smiled with relief seeing Li Yifei walk in.

"Yifei? Damn, you’re his backup?" Aoki Takeshi was clearly unsure of the significance behind the name Yifei or Li Yifei, so he was somewhat stunned, but the cold woman beside him was already on high alert, the aura around her instantly became tense like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

Aoki Ryota breathed a sigh of relief, his body swayed as if about to collapse, Li Yifei swiftly moved over, supporting Aoki Ryota, seeing his pitiful state, Li Yifei was angry, channeling True Qi to stabilize Aoki Ryota’s body, Li Yifei said, "Uncle Aoki, sorry I came a bit late, made you suffer."

"It’s okay, I can still hold on, but next, I’ll have to trouble you!" Aoki Ryota said.

"Alright!" Li Yifei agreed.

Seeing Li Yifei instantly rush over, Aoki Takeshi realized the opponent was a top-notch fighter, but of course, the cold woman beside him acted like a completely defensive prickling cat.

"Only you two?" Li Yifei asked calmly.

"So you’re the backup, fine, a bit disappointing, but..."

"Takeshi, don’t speak, his name is Li Yifei, and he’s... the organization’s number one enemy." The cold woman couldn’t remain calm.

"What?" Aoki Takeshi seemed like he hadn’t heard it clearly, immediately asked, "How is that possible, he’s the organization’s number one enemy?"

"That’s right, Li Yifei, also known as Golden Eagle, a Huaxia person, one of the strongest people today!" the cold woman said.

Cold sweat ran down Aoki Takeshi’s back, never imagining that Aoki Ryota’s so-called backup was Li Yifei, and... a top enemy, realizing this, Aoki Takeshi instinctively wanted to hide behind the woman, saying, "What do we do now? We should fight him, the captain will reward us if we kill him!"

"Are you two putting on a show?" Li Yifei tilted his head, questioning.

The cold woman sighed, saying, "Though we are enemies, I... didn’t come to hunt you, I haven’t taken the task, can you let us go?"

"Surrendering? Giving up without a fight isn’t your ridiculous organization’s style." Li Yifei scoffed.

"I’m telling the truth, I haven’t taken the task to kill you, so this might be a misunderstanding!"

"No, you dared to harm Uncle Aoki, you deserve death, of course, you can choose to fight me, or take care of yourselves."

"You... darling, you’re so powerful, can’t you fight him? Even if we can’t win, we can still escape!" Aoki Takeshi, hearing the conversation, thought of the woman’s terror, but saw her lack the courage to fight, was somewhat anxious.

The cold woman gave Aoki Takeshi a cold glance, said to Li Yifei, "He designed this, I just helped, for offending you, I’m willing to make amends, I beg you..."

"Darling, what are you talking about?" Aoki Takeshi quickly asked.

"You two, neither willing to fight nor die, make it difficult for me," Li Yifei rubbed his hands, slightly dissatisfied.

"Damn, you’re too arrogant, daring to speak to Noah’s Ark people like that, Li Yifei, fine, if I leave here alive today, I’ll have Noah’s Ark send someone to settle the score with you."
