Chapter 399 Night Rain
The hazy rain covered the late winter dusk. Several figures in raincoats stood by the street, raising their eyes and looking carefully at the names on the retro plaque.
"Hello? How many are there?"
The waiter walked to the door holding an umbrella.
"I'm looking for your manager."
Lu Cheng whispered and walked past the waiter.
Behind He Yu, Sun Jinbo looked around cautiously.
It was evening, and there were many guests dining in the restaurant. The waiters in uniforms were coming and going, very busy.
Lu Cheng glanced at the wooden stairs and the photos hanging on the stairs.
Photos of He Tianze, Yun Xiangchen, Simon Shen, and Teng Jiang are hung at the top, while below are some photos and signatures of some customers.
The three of them came upstairs to the balcony, sat down and waited quietly.
"Instructor Lu, why do I feel like the people in the store don't know you very well?"
He Yu said.
"That's true. I am only the nominal boss of Shaoxing Pavilion. After Teng Jiang and the others left, this place was slowly handed over to a professional team."
Lu Cheng picked up the tea cup and put it down again.
"Tap tap tap—"
The sound of footsteps sounded, but stopped abruptly on the stairs.
"I have a bad feeling."
Sun Jinbo stood up, walked to the balcony, and looked at the rainy night through the railing.
Customers dining in the lobby on the first floor complained, pushed, and poured out of the restaurant door.
Cars honked and flashed night lights, creating a crowded scene in the water at the door.

"Why haven't you come yet?"
Lu Cheng also stood up. At this moment, a drone slowly rose in the direction of the stairs. There were missiles hanging below the drone, facing the balcony.
Lu Cheng's expression changed and he subconsciously ducked to avoid it.
He Yu rushed forward, and the ice air spread, covering the launched missile.
"Boom—"
The shock wave of the explosion surged in the opposite direction, destroying the wooden stairs of the restaurant and leaving a large hole in the corner, allowing rainwater to pour in.
"There's an ambush!"
Sun Jinbo ran back from the balcony. On the steel rope hanging behind him, more than a dozen fully armed members of the Eagle Wings fell down and fired violently with their weapons.
He Yu retracted his arm and waved it towards the balcony.
The Eagle Wing troops immediately opened the alloy shield in their hands to form a shield wall. Ice air spread on the shield, and the ice crystals fell into the shield, causing cracks.
"Da da da-"
The hail of bullets passed over the shield and continued to fire.
Lu Cheng rolled over, using the tables and chairs in the restaurant to block the bullets. His shoulders and cheeks were scratched by hot shrapnel, dripping with blood.
Sun Jinbo flew out, the flying knife in his hand dodged.
There was a sound of gold and stone clashing, and the alloy shields were disconnected one after another.
The Eagle Wing troops were instantly pierced by the ice energy that turned into fangs and fell to the ground. The ice crystals continued to grow, burying their bodies under a sheet of snow.
"boom-"
A huge bolt of lightning flashed through the night, and thunder rolled.
"Instructor Lu!"
He Yu walked to Lu Cheng's side and helped him up. The three of them ran towards the balcony, jumped down, hit the roof of the vehicle parked downstairs, and rolled onto the road.
"call-"
Dazzling firelight shot through the night.
Blow that innocent car to pieces.
The three people fell under the shock wave and struggled to raise their heads.
There were people fleeing in panic all around. The enemies hidden behind the rain curtain kept firing, cars exploded, pedestrians were hit, and the rain of bullets turned into sickles of death, leaving circles of bullet marks all around.
Helicopters in the sky gathered together, and huge searchlights hit the ground, illuminating the crowd.
"Instructor Lu!"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
Lu Cheng turned his eyes and saw Shen Simon's figure walking backwards and emerging from the night.
A whirlwind roared past, and Lu Cheng felt like he was flying instantly.

After a long time, when his feet stepped on the ground again, there was already a wilderness of hills around him.
"Phew...I'm so exhausted..."
Yun Xiangchen crossed his arms and panted heavily.
"Instructor Lu! I knew you would go there! Fortunately, we are here, otherwise you wouldn't be able to get out."
Teng Jiang turned around and said.
"The Eagle Wings have deployed more than 100 people near Shaoxing Pavilion, plus more than 500 people from the special operations force, as well as the more peripheral defense forces and anti-terrorism forces..."
He Tianze explained.
"Since you know that Shaoxing Pavilion is controlled by them, why don't you contact them?"
Lu Cheng asked.
"The conscience of heaven and earth! We have been trying to contact you since the day of the beast wave, okay? You didn't answer the phone at first, and then you turned off the phone directly. Fortunately, I was smart and thought you would come here..."
Teng Jiang said helplessly.
"Instructor Lu, other instructors, and students, how are everyone doing?"
He Tianze asked.
"The students were scattered in the beast tide, and only a few of us were left. Also, Duan Shaoyuan was killed by the Eagle Wings, and Sadow was seriously injured. We went to the city this time to find medicine and equipment for him. "
Lu Cheng replied.
"Duan Shaoyuan...was he killed?"
Simon Shen's face was startled, and his eyes were slightly red.
"These beasts! I..."
Yun Xiangchen clenched his fists.
"Zhong Liang has now become the general person in charge of the Sky Shield. Even Commander Long and Commander Duanmu are not immune to the impact..."
Lu Cheng said.
"...What's even more frightening is that his behavior is completely supported by the public. For those who insist on justice, this is truly the darkest moment."
"Actually, if you need medicine or medical equipment, I know there is a small hospital nearby..."
He Tianze broke everyone's deep thoughts and silence.

"The wound on Sadhu's shoulder turned purple, which seemed to be a sign of poisoning."
Guan Jin said while observing.
"How despicable."
Ou Tong said angrily.
"Now how to do?"
Fu Yu looked at it nervously and asked in a low voice.
"There is only one way, to amputate the entire arm."
Xiao Chu said, taking out the dagger in his hand.
Lying on the bed, Sadow's body was shaking violently, his wounds burst, and black blood poured out of the corners of his mouth.
"Why did you get poisoned now?"
Guan Jin said doubtfully.
