Chapter 36

“Ah! No, don’t! Shengyi, save me…”

The woman shrieked in terror, her instinct urging her to flee.

Instantly, the man slapped her across the face and gripped her neck. “Shut up!”

“Please, save my friend!”

The woman named Shengyi couldn’t believe what she was witnessing. She couldn’t help but plead with Su Xuan.

Su Xuan rushed forward too, trying to free her captured friend.

“Stay the hell still!”

Seeing their actions, the man sneered and tightened his grip on the hostage’s neck. The hostage’s face turned pale in an instant, her breathing barely audible.

Shengyi dared not move a step, fearing she might inadvertently provoke the man.

Su Xuan’s mind was racing like an explosion. His temples pounded, and his consciousness entered the system’s online store.

He was searching for purchasable items!

Waiting for backup was no longer an option. He had to subdue this criminal immediately!

Su Xuan didn’t anticipate that even a direct hit wouldn’t completely incapacitate the criminal. It merely rendered him temporarily powerless, and he quickly regained his strength. And now, he had taken another hostage…

This made the situation awkward.

So, his immediate goal was to rescue the hostage and take down the criminal!

There were only three people here, and only he had real combat capabilities.

[Hostage Access Record: Provides knowledge of all the criminal’s accomplices. No accomplice can evade your gaze! Price: 10,000 points!]

[Six-Flavor Pill: Temporarily increases abilities by 300%, but has side effects. Price: 1,000 points!]

[Truth Serum: Can be applied to the criminal, preventing them from lying again, but can be used only once. Price: 800 points!]

[…]

Su Xuan’s gaze swiftly scanned the products in the system store and soon settled on one item.

[Hundred-Percent Accuracy Solar Fist: As the name suggests, whenever you initiate an attack, focusing on the temple, each strike will hit the target. Price: 1,000 points!]

In essence, this product worked the same way as Hundred-Percent Accuracy Iron Hammer.

However, using fists was faster than using a hammer, and Su Xuan could target specific areas with ease. He immediately chose this item!

In an instant, his heart stirred with excitement.

There are only a few vulnerabilities in a person, and the temple is one of them.

Just like his “Hundred-Percent Accuracy Solar Fist,” it means that no matter how he strikes, he can hit the criminal’s temple perfectly, causing them to lose consciousness.

So, what’s there to wait for?

Buy it!

Get it done!

**[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Hundred-Percent Accuracy Solar Fist! The item has been sent, please collect it in your inventory.]**

**[Ding! Deducting 1,000 points from the host’s account!]**

The sound of the system echoed in Su Xuan’s ears. He quickly opened the system inventory and focused on the item. In the next second, it transformed into a gleaming light and landed in his hand.

In an instant, Su Xuan felt an inexplicable surge of power in his hand, as if he could deliver a punch at any moment.

Without hesitation, Su Xuan stepped forward, enraging the criminal even further. He tightened his grip on the woman’s hand, as if he were about to strangle her any second.

Bang!

Bang bang bang!

No sooner said than done, Su Xuan delivered a direct punch to the criminal’s temple. His vision darkened, and he loosened his grip on the woman’s hand.

Su Xuan lifted the hostage and gently pushed her towards Shengyi. The woman staggered and fell into her friend’s arms.

But Su Xuan didn’t stop there.

He punched again and again, targeting the criminal’s temple with every blow, delivering over a dozen strikes.

The two nearby women were left dumbfounded by this scene.

Holding each other, they trembled at the sight, but as they watched the man who had just threatened them being pummeled to the ground, they felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction.

Su Xuan punched again and again, finding immense pleasure in it.

Even the criminal was now lying on the ground, his eyes vacant, completely unaware of what had transpired.

Clearly, he was dazed from the beating.

Su Xuan finally ceased his assault. He then pulled a silver handcuff from his waist and securely cuffed the criminal’s hands in front of him, flipping him over in the process. He used his knee to pin down the criminal’s sternum, ensuring he remained immobilized.

Only then did Su Xuan spare a moment to look at the two women.

Especially the short-haired girl who had been taken as a hostage earlier. “Sorry, police investigation. Are both of you okay?”

As this statement was made, the two women, who had been puzzled by the sight of the handcuffs, finally comprehended the situation.

“So, you’re a cop?”

“Was this something you had been observing for a while? Who is this criminal?”

Speaking was Shengyi. She seemed to have developed a slight liking for Su Xuan. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have actively asked for his phone number. But now, as she looked at Su Xuan, her gaze became complex, and she even began to wonder if he had deliberately engaged her in conversation to capture the criminal.

The short-haired girl held her neck and coughed, looking at Su Xuan. “What’s going on here?”

“What was he trying to do? He nearly strangled me! What did he mean by what he said just now?”

..

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan slapped the criminal’s head as he struggled, barking angrily, “Stay still!”

Then, he looked up and explained, “I just noticed something was off about him.”

“He was sitting next to you all the time, and the way he was looking at you seemed off. It was just a guess on my part.”

“I never thought he actually had ulterior motives towards you.”

Su Xuan looked helpless as he glanced at his clothes. “Actually, I was on a blind date today.”

After hearing this, the two women finally realized that Su Xuan hadn’t intended any harm.

As a result, their anger towards him vanished in an instant, replaced by a slight sense of guilt for not trusting him.

“Um, sorry…”

“I misunderstood you earlier…”

Shengyi quickly apologized to Su Xuan and then looked at Mr. Zhou on the ground with a glimmer of anger in her eyes.

She could never have imagined that Mr. Zhou, who appeared so honest and sincere, could have such intentions towards her.

Just at that moment, outside the small garden, police sirens blared.

This time, it wasn’t just the local police station sending officers; even the county’s special police and detective division joined forces for a joint operation!

After all, this was a suspect in a series of potential murders, not an ordinary criminal!

Over a dozen police cars came to a halt not far away. The special police and detectives discreetly positioned themselves in corners. More than a dozen undercover officers rushed into the coffee shop and quickly emerged again.

With a clatter, they charged towards the small garden.

The director of the Police Station, Old Mai, held a gun, bullets loaded, and with lightning speed, he led a group of officers charging at the forefront.

“Follow me!”
