Chapter 507: Shadow at the Alley



Chapter 507: Shadow at the Alley

After getting Yang Xiaoyue's affirmative answer, Xu Changping walked slowly and cautiously towards the gloomy shadow at the entrance of the alley.

His eyes, as sharp as an eagle's, kept scanning the surroundings, not missing any corner where danger might lurk.

At this moment, a black shadow like a ghost suddenly emerged from the corner of the wall in front of him and pounced on him at lightning speed.

In a flash, Xu Changping demonstrated his extraordinary agility and reaction ability. He moved his body to the side and easily avoided the fierce attack of the black shadow like a willow branch swaying in the wind.

At the same time, his right hand grasped the black shadow's wrist accurately like an iron clamp.

"Let me go!" The black shadow struggled desperately, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from Xu Changping's control.

Xu Changping was as calm as water. He kicked the black shadow in the lower body, causing the opponent to gasp for air. Then he stared coldly at the black shadow of unknown origin in front of him.

His tone was so cold that it seemed to freeze the air around them: "What exactly do you want to do by following us stealthily?" Xu Changping's voice was not loud, but it revealed an aura that could not be refused.

The shadow had calmed down after what Xu Changping had done. He was originally so aggressive but now he was like a deflated ball. His voice was unconsciously trembling, "I... I just wanted to see if you have anything valuable on you."

Hearing this, Xu Changping raised the corners of his mouth slightly, outlining a faint smile, with a barely perceptible cunning light flashing in his eyes, and asked slowly: "Oh? Then how did you know that we would have something in our hands?"

Facing Xu Changping's question, the black shadow was speechless. After a long while, he stammered and replied: "If you don't have anything, then... then why would someone follow you secretly?"

Obviously, the black shadow still felt a little unwilling, and finally he mustered up the courage to growl at Xu Changping.

However, Xu Changping pretended to be clueless and deliberately raised his voice to ask, "Following? What is following? Who is following us?"

The black shadow was obviously stunned when he heard this, with a confused look on his face. He murmured, "This... I really don't know! I also accidentally heard that someone wanted to pay someone to follow you."

When Xu Changping heard this, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He stared at the black shadow and asked in a deep voice, "Unintentionally? This is probably not that simple! Do you know who ordered you to follow us?"

The shadow shook his head in fear and stammered, "I...I really don't know! I just saw that person secretly watching you, and then I followed him all the way."

Xu Changping did not give up the questioning and continued to ask: "Well, since you said so, where is that person now?"

However, at this moment, the black shadow suddenly fell silent, with his head lowered, as if he was secretly thinking about something important in his heart.

Seeing this situation, Xu Changping's mouth corners slightly raised, outlining a faint smile.

He said calmly, "Since you don't want to tell me, I won't force you to do it. But judging from your appearance, you must have a criminal record at the police station. So you should think about how to explain yourself when you get there."

As soon as the words fell, the black shadow's motionless body suddenly trembled, and then began to struggle violently and shouted loudly:

"Don't send me to the police station! Please let me go! I'm telling you... isn't that enough? I really don't know where the person who followed you has gone! Not long after you left the hotel just now, he suddenly disappeared!"

The black shadow actually knew who was following Xu Changping, but he didn't dare to say it out. If it was found out that he was the one who leaked the information, the outcome would be very different from what it is now.

Xu Changping's brain was working rapidly, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.

In just a moment, he suddenly realized that his subtle action of intentionally slowing down his bicycle on the road was actually captured by the mysterious person who had been following him!

After some thought and judgment, Xu Changping guessed that this person must have come here by accident.

It was already late at night, and Xu Changping didn't want to cause more trouble, so he decisively let go of the black shadow's wrist: "Alright, hurry up and leave, don't follow us anymore, or don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying that, Xu Changping stared at the man's gradually receding back, and a hint of contemplation passed through his deep eyes imperceptibly.

At this moment, Yang Xiaoyue quickly walked to Xu Changping's side, stared at him with worry on her face, and asked with concern: "Brother Xu, is everything okay?"

Xu Changping raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a reassuring smile, and replied softly: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry. But judging from the current situation, you have indeed been targeted by someone."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaoyue frowned and said, "Then...then how should we deal with it next?"

Xu Changping hesitated for a moment, then calmly replied: "Don't panic yet, let's see what tricks these uninvited guests are going to play tonight."

"Well, okay." Yang Xiaoyue responded softly, agreeing with Xu Changping's words.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement, and she also wanted to know who was so bold as to have such evil intentions towards her.

The wheels slowly turned, and they continued along the silent street. Although the night was still as dark as ink, as if it could swallow up all the light, fortunately, nothing strange or bizarre happened along the way.

Not long after, they arrived at the gate of the courtyard. They saw that the heavy door was tightly closed, and it was obviously locked from the inside.

Yang Xiaoyue stopped and turned to look at Xu Changping beside her.

"Wait, I'll go open the door." Xu Changping parked the bicycle, smiled at Yang Xiaoyue and said softly.

Then turned and walked towards.

Xu Changping was seen walking to the wall next to the gate, running a few steps nimbly, then pushing with both hands and pushing his feet upward, and his whole body flipped over lightly like a flying bird.

Seeing this scene, Yang Xiaoyue couldn't help but widen her eyes, secretly marveling at Xu Changping's agile movements and excellent physical fitness.

However, at the same time, a barely perceptible hint of deep thought flashed quietly in the depths of her eyes.

This courtyard seems a little unsafe...
