Chapter 1003: Missing Body

“Pay attention to your surroundings. He may still be here,” No.3 reminded.

Everyone was extremely cautious.

After going from the second floor to the first floor, they confirmed Zhang Heng wasn’t on the second floor anymore. In other words, there was a high chance that Zhang Heng was on the first floor.

Whenever they thought that a horrifying killer might be lurking around them, everyone started to feel very nervous. And the person holding the heat detector immediately began to scan his surroundings. No.2, however, did not do so. She raised her head and looked at the ceiling before raising the heat detector in her hand. Her two companions beside her were on the alert, holding their guns with bated breath.

After they scanned the place one time, Zhang Heng was nowhere to be found.

“Did he escape from the gate?” No.3 asked.

“I can’t rule that out.”

No.8 frowned, but then he saw a federal policeman approaching him.

“What happened?”

“I just counted the corpses. We lost ten allies, but I found only nine bodies.”

When No.8 heard what he said, his pupils shrank suddenly. He then pointed his gun at the federal policemen not far away from him and shouted, “Everyone, don’t move. Raise your hands!”

No.2 and No.3 were slowed by half a beat, but they all reacted quickly after that. They did what No.8 did and turned their guns on their allies.

Ten people were missing, but there were only nine corpses in the hall. There was a reason why such a thing happened. These federal police officers were all appointed to help them arrest the “dangerous suspects,” and they had very little information about their targets. Hence, it was pointless torturing the information out of them. The possibility that the federal police officer being kidnapped by Zhang Heng was very small. Therefore, the tenth person couldn’t have possibly survived the attack. Zhang Heng ignored the other nine corpses and hid one of them... This made No.8 quickly think of a certain possibility.

Even he had to admire Zhang Heng’s boldness.

But this time, the plan might backfire.

“Everyone! Form a circle and check whether you know the person beside you!” No. 8 ordered.

All the policemen were taken aback. Their colleagues had just been killed, and they were still grieving. And the policeman who had been shot earlier saw the corpse of the plainclothes he had handed the bulletproof vest. They were killed only because the top had sent them to assist the three emergency response team members in catching the felon.

Not only did the other party fail to apologize, but they turned around and raised their guns at them. In this case, no matter how good-tempered they were, they would inevitably feel dissatisfied. So, none of them did what No.8 asked.

But then they heard a gunshot. No. 2 had raised his pistol and fired a shot above his head. He then said abruptly, “Everyone, don’t make me repeat what I just said. This is for your safety. The criminal you are facing this time is more barbaric and cunning than you thought. Not only did he kill your colleagues, but he also blends into our group. If you don’t want to become the next corpse, you better listen to my orders.”

The federal police officers fell into silence. After a while, someone finally made a move, followed by the second and the third... They formed a small circle in accordance with the requirements of No.8.

The three emergency response team members stood in a triangle position, each of them looking in a different direction. Once they spotted Zhang Heng, they would pull the trigger and kill him immediately, not giving Zhang Heng any chance to escape again.

This was why No.8 said that Zhang Heng’s plan might backfire this time.

In the white smoke, everyone’s face looked blurry, and only those that stood within half a meter of each other could see the other’s face.

No.8’s gaze swept across the circle of federal police officers. Never had he been this focused before. He believed that the prey had gotten into the hunter’s trap, and it was time to reap what he sowed.

The federal police officers carefully identified the people around them. They even reached out their hands and touched each other’s faces to confirm that the person beside them wasn’t wearing a silicone mask. However, the outcome surprised No.8.

None of the seventeen federal police officers present were fake. All of them passed the verification in the end.

Did they make a mistake? Zhang Heng killed ten people and dragged away one of the corpses. If he did not do it for the uniform, why would he do such a thing?

No.8 was also a master of assassination himself, and when he put himself into Zhang Heng’s shoes, he still could not figure out the answer to this question. Yet, at the same time, No.8 felt like he was missing out on something important.

Suddenly No.8’s eyes widened, and he looked at the seventeen federal policemen in front of him. “Wait, who among you ran to us and told us that there was one missing body?!”

All the federal police officers looked at each other, but no one answered No.8’s question.

And No.8’s heart gradually sank to the bottom of the ocean.

Even after realizing that Zhang Heng had blended himself among the group of federal police officers, No.8 still missed a person without his knowledge, and that was the policeman who reminded him of the missing body. No.8 did not treat the latter differently from other officers since it was a police officer that reminded him of this matter. Subconsciously, he slipped through No.8’s suspicions.

Afterward, most of his attention was focused on the seventeen federal policemen not far away, and he overlooked the closest person around him. No.8 realized that he had no impression of the latter’s final move.

He was trembling in fear, and his hands and feet were ice-cold. He was supposed to be programmed to withstand extreme fear, but he felt the long-lost sense of dread at this moment.

Immediately, he rushed to a police officer as fast as he could, snatched the heat detector from the latter’s hand, and aimed at where No.2 and No.3 stood earlier. However, he found out that they were no longer there.

No.8 couldn’t believe that the two would run around at such a terrible time. They didn’t even inform him before they walked away. Hence, the two had most likely encountered an accident.

After seeing what happened to No.6, No.8 did not dare to underestimate Zhang Heng’s assassination ability. However, he still could not believe what he just witnessed. With No.2 and No.3’s skillsets, they weren’t supposed to make a sound when they were killed.
