Chapter 1 The Sound of the Lock

The sound of the lock cylinder turning was extremely faint, not even noticeable in the quiet night sky, but Li Tianran heard it very clearly.

The ability of radiation-resistant food to modify his physique had made Li Tianran's five senses much sharper.

A fierce look flashed across his eyes, and he chopped Ren Xiao on the back of her neck with a hand knife. She groaned and passed out.

Outside the door, it was pitch black.

Da Kui and another strong man stood on either side of Ren Xiao's door. Da Kui gently grasped the doorknob, turning it with extreme care.

In fact, Li Tianran was still careless.

Ren Xiao's villa had an alarm system, but it was very well hidden, installed under the windowsills and doors of the rooms.

Inside the villa, both of these locations in every room had a pressure sensor. As long as someone stepped on the windowsill to sneak into the villa room, the sensor would trigger the alarm system.

Once the alarm system was activated, it would directly connect to the nanny's room on the first floor.

Three minutes ago.

The nanny who lived on the first floor was awakened by the alarm, and then quickly notified the security team, but to be on the safe side, she first told Bai Jingyan and others who lived in the next room about this, wanting to find a way to detect what happened in Ren Xiao's room before the security team arrived!

…

After Li Tianran knocked Ren Xiao unconscious, he turned around and wanted to jump out of the window, but at this moment, he saw seven or eight clusters of flashlight beams lit up not far from the window, and they were approaching this side very quickly.

"This is troublesome!" Li Tianran's heart sank.

Judging from the number of flashlights the opponents had, there must be about ten of them. If he jumped out of the window, he would definitely encounter them.

The difference in the number of enemies and allies was too great, and it would be difficult to escape!

Li Tianran's eyes flickered, and he quickly made a decision. He quietly walked towards the door of Ren Xiao's room.

Da Kui stood outside the door, his eyes emitting a compelling fierce light, his arm muscles bulging, extremely steady, while another strong man held a dagger in reverse. Judging from the way he held the knife, it could be seen that he was definitely not the "assistant" Bai Jingyan had mentioned.

How could a researcher's assistant know that holding a knife in reverse was more stable?

The handle on Ren Xiao's door slowly turned in Da Kui's hand. The two of them held their breath, silently mouthing: "Three..."

"Two!"

"One!"

As the countdown in the mouths of the two people ended, Da Kui directly turned the handle to the lowest point, and then the two almost rushed into Ren Xiao's room at the same time.

At the same time, the nanny on the first floor directly closed the main switch of the emergency lights!

In an instant, every room in the dark villa was instantly illuminated by the dazzling light of the emergency lights!

If a person is in the dark for a few minutes and is suddenly illuminated by light, their eyes will be temporarily blinded for three to five seconds.

Da Kui and the other strong man had planned it very well. They wanted to use these three to five seconds to end the battle!

They closed their eyes the moment the lights came on, and then violently broke in!

But the next second, a burst of violent object breaking sounds and screams came from Ren Xiao's room.

Bang!

Da Kui flew out at a faster speed than when he rushed in, his body as if he had been hit by a wild bull. He screamed and landed next to the pillar of the second-floor staircase, directly passing out.

Inside the room.

Li Tianran held the remains of half a chair in his hand.

When Da Kui rushed in just now, he was already prepared. He directly swung the chair and sent Da Kui flying.

The solid wood chair instantly shattered, leaving only two thick armrests in his hands.

"I'm going to kill you!" Another strong man roared when he saw this. The dagger in his hand was like the fangs of a venomous snake, frantically stabbing at Li Tianran, every strike aimed at a vital point!

Although the opponent was holding a sharp weapon, because the dagger was too short, Li Tianran dodged a stab by flashing to the side of the strong man, and slammed down with the armrest in his hand with lightning speed.

Bang!

The solid wood armrest directly hit the strong man's wrist, making a crisp sound of "crack". The strong man screamed, and the dagger in his hand fell directly to the ground.

"Bang, bang!"

Li Tianran aimed at the strong man's kneecap and the back of his heart, kicking him to the ground with two kicks.

"Tell your boss, Liang’s revenge hasn't been avenged, this matter is not over! I will come back to find her!" Li Tianran said in a rough voice, leaving behind a harsh word, turned and ran out of the room, jumping directly down the stairs.

The distance between the second and first floors of the villa was only about four meters. With Li Tianran's current strength, he could land without injury.

The security team was about to arrive, and he needed to leave the villa from another direction in the shortest possible time.

"Breaking into a girl's bedroom in the middle of the night..." Just then, a very gentle voice rang out. Bai Jingyan, wearing a blue shirt, stood below the stairs with his hands in his pockets, blocking Li Tianran's only way to leave the villa, with a calm smile on his face: "Sir, aren't you being a little impolite?"

Li Tianran landed, his body arched. He didn't take the thin Bai Jingyan seriously. Even two strong men as stout as bears were easily knocked down by him. What kind of waves could this "little bean sprout" stir up?

Whoosh!

Li Tianran's legs pushed off the ground, using the reaction force, he pounced on Bai Jingyan like a large eagle.

Bai Jingyan's eyes suddenly changed!

At this moment, Li Tianran felt that the weak scholarly aura on Bai Jingyan's face disappeared in an instant. At the same time, an extremely sharp aura burst out from him.

Bai Jingyan bent his waist, lowered his center of gravity, his legs bent like a bow full of force. As the toes of his feet suddenly pushed off the ground, he suddenly ran two meters and soared into the air, his right knee smashing towards Li Tianran like a cannonball!

Li Tianran only felt a gust of wind blowing in his face. His pupils shrank, his right arm pulled back and then punched out!

Bang!

An extremely muffled sound rang in the air. Li Tianran's fist and Bai Jingyan's knee collided directly!

Thump, thump, thump!

The two landed, each retreating three or four steps, with shocked expressions in their eyes.

"Interesting!" Bai Jingyan's eyes burst out with extremely excited light. He laughed loudly, "I have been in the pharmaceutical industry for so many years, and my research on the human body has already reached perfection. The human knee joint is the strongest part of the human body, and the bones of the arm cannot be compared with it at all; according to my calculations, your ulna and radius in your forearm should be fractured now because they withstood 700 kilograms of frontal impact force, and your carpal joints will also be crushed and dislocated because they cannot relieve the force, but you don't show any signs of injury now..."

"Have you practiced martial arts? But I didn't see you using any special unloading techniques."

"I'm very puzzled now." Bai Jingyan pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, revealing an extremely bright smile full of curiosity: "Can you answer me?"

"Otherwise, you won't be able to leave tonight."

Li Tianran looked at Bai Jingyan standing in front of him, touched his slightly numb fist, and his eyes gradually turned cold.

If his physique had not been modified, his arm would have been useless in that collision just now.

He guessed correctly.

This Bai Jingyan was indeed not simple. Judging from the combat skills and strength he had just displayed, he had already surpassed those two big men by too much!

This was an old yin bi (cunning person) who was pretending to be weak to deceive others!
