I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 662 A Bolt from the Blue

"It's too late!"

The commander spoke helplessly; in the drone footage, the assassin had already gotten close to that family, and they were facing away from him.

Giving up was not the habit of Hua Country's people, so the painter suddenly accelerated from behind, shouting as he ran, "James! Didn't you say he had no target when he entered Hua Country this time?"

The backpacker, however, had already given up, but in order to capture the target, he still tried hard to follow behind the painter, running and explaining at the same time.

"The intel showed he indeed had no target. After completing an assassination mission in Mongolia, he illegally entered here. I thought it was his pre-arranged escape route, with a casual tour of the Great Wall!"

"Damn it!" the painter cursed. At this point, not to mention reaching the platform, he was still some distance away from Lu Zheng and Lin Wan.

Lu Zheng and Lin Wan also picked up their pace, but as long as they did not reveal their extraordinary abilities, they would definitely not be able to save that family in time.

Because the assassin had already approached the family of three from behind, and in just five seconds, he could kill them one by one and push them off the Great Wall. He wouldn't exactly destroy the bodies, but they could be hidden for a very long time.

Theoretically, by the time their bodies were discovered, he would have long left Hua Country. Of course, he was already being watched by Interpol, so whether he could leave was questionable. Nevertheless, that family was basically doomed.

Lin Wan's eyes narrowed as she was about to loudly reveal her identity to intimidate the assassin, though whether it would work was up to fate.

But at that moment, she saw Lu Zheng beside her form a hand seal.

The next moment, Lin Wan felt the entire sky flash for an instant, lighting up suddenly.

"Boom!"

A clear sky thunder!

A golden lightning bolt descended from the sky, suddenly flickering on the platform.

Lin Wan: (*°ω°*)ﾉ

Lu Zheng: ❛‿˂̵✧

Lin Wan silently mouthed the word, asking, "Thunder Technique?"

Lu Zheng smugly raised an eyebrow.

Lin Wan widened her eyes, surprised that Lu Zheng had such a trick up his sleeve, making her worry for nothing.

Lin Wan and Lu Zheng slowed down, so the painter quickly caught up with them and urgently asked in the channel, "What happened?"

Commander, "..."

"Um, good news, just now the assassin was struck by lightning..." the commander said speechlessly.

"What?" The painter stumbled, nearly hitting his head on the wall.

"A lightning bolt just struck, and it happened to hit the target." The commander's face was also full of disbelief. "The target is now down, but it's unclear if there are any vital signs, you guys better hurry up and protect that family."

"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.

Lu Zheng, Lin Wan, and the painter at the front sped up simultaneously, quickly crossing over a hundred steps, nearing the platform.

The backpacker behind clearly wasn't as quick as them, and having already fallen behind earlier, he was only halfway there now.

Lin Wan watched Lu Zheng, inquiring if the target was dead.

Lu Zheng nodded; it was the Thunder Technique, expelling evil spirits, eliminating demons, the strongest against a single target. Even if activated with the weakest magical power, a normal person couldn't withstand it.

The assassin was done for.

The three quickly entered the platform and swiftly reached the top platform, where they saw a charred corpse and a family of three huddled in a corner, shivering and making a call to the police.

Lin Wan immediately approached them, taking out her credentials and reassuring them, "Don't be afraid. I'm a police officer!"

Meanwhile, the painter cautiously approached the assassin's body, looking at the charred, smoking, steaming figure with a twisted expression.

Tapping his earpiece, the painter said, "The painter confirms the assassin's state: he's cooked and still steaming, but unsalted, so not sure what he tastes like."

Lu Zheng, "..."

Commander, "..."

"Ugh!" In the command vehicle behind, the support personnel couldn't hold back any longer.

The smell was too intense, making the painter step back a couple of steps, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky, puzzled, "How can there be thunder in such clear weather?"

"Who knows? Thunder on a clear day is rare but not impossible. For specific meteorological reasons, you could ask the weather bureau."

The commander's tone was much more relaxed. Although they didn't capture the assassin alive, that family of three wasn't killed, and so there was no blame but merit. Now they didn't have to worry about some department causing trouble.

"How's that family?"

"A bit scared, but much better now," Lin Wan replied, gently stroking the hair of the eleven or twelve-year-old girl and reassuring the also frightened couple.

"Sorry for the trouble, but we'll need you to come with us to make a statement," Lin Wan said.

"What statement?" the man couldn't help but ask.

The woman was puzzled, "Why do we need to make a statement? This guy got struck by lightning, what's it got to do with us?"

They had been thinking of getting their daughter home quickly to soothe her hurt feelings.

"Because this is an international assassin, and he was targeting you," Lin Wan said, "Had it not been for that sudden bolt of lightning..."

"What!? An international assassin targeting us? How is that possible?"

The woman was shocked, while the man's pupils contracted, "An international assassin!"

Lin Wan looked at the man and nodded. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"What the hell! Is it necessary to hire an international assassin?" the man cursed angrily, clearly aware of something.

But none of this had anything to do with Lu Zheng, or even Lin Wan.

"Our people are at the scenic spot's entrance. Shall I take you down there?" Lin Wan suggested.

"Yes, yes! Thank you, thank you!" The family nodded repeatedly, then stood up and followed Lin Wan past the still steaming corpse, practically running down the platform.

Then they saw the backpacker who had just arrived and entered.

"Ah!!!"

The three screamed in fright, hiding behind Lu Zheng and Lin Wan. Lin Wan quickly reassured them, "He's also with Interpol, here tracking this international assassin. Don't be afraid!"

Only then did the family calm down, but they still clung to Lin Wan's clothes without letting go.

Lin Wan shook her head; she had been thinking of handing the family over to the backpacker so she and Lu Zheng could reunite with Zhao Xiaodao's group and continue touring the Great Wall.

Ah well, better escort them first...

The commander had already contacted the Beidu police, and the painter stayed behind to guard the scene and wait for follow-up police forces.

Lin Wan and Lu Zheng took the family back to the entrance of the scenic area and handed them over to the commander.

To figure out why the international assassin targeted the family, the backpacker also followed along, asking to listen in.

But this was a matter for the Interpol's Beidu liaison office; Lu Zheng and Lin Wan had already dusted their hands, returning to the scenic area to find Zhao Xiaodao's group.

"How did it go? How did it go?" Zhao Xiaodao hurriedly rushed up.

Lin Wan felt a bit embarrassed. After thinking about it, she decided not to share the specifics, simply nodding and saying with understatement, "It's settled."

Her expression was calm, as if everything had been easily in control and within her grasp.

"Haha, I knew it!" Zhao Xiaodao clapped and laughed, and Zhang Weili couldn't help but admire her. They didn't press for details, understanding that it might need confidentiality.

If they knew that Lin Wan and the others almost didn't make it in time to stop the assassin from committing murder, but instead, it was a lightning strike that killed him, who knows what their expressions would be.
