Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 1256: A Step Ahead, and One on One

“How did you know I was outside the bathroom half the time? Are you spying on me, too?” Wade exclaimed in a scandalized tone.

Luke was lost for words. “Do you want to save your wife or not?”

Wade’s voice immediately returned to normal. “Ah, I’m sorry. I know you would never peep at me, boss.”

As he said that, a thought flashed through his mind:?You’re not spying on me, but you know what I’m doing. Are you spying on… my wife? Should I kill this guy too?

Annoyed, Luke said, “I don’t need to see to know that you would never want to leave the house after going inside. Cut the crap. Where are we meeting?”

Wade said, “They left an address: Elizabeth Port, South Newark.”

Luke said, “Send me the address. Call me when you’re near.”

He then hung up, took off his Batman suit, put on the V suit, and entered the ocean through the underground passage.

Ten minutes later, Luke glided soundlessly through the night sky toward Elizabeth Port.

He had been using auxiliary thrusters, but when he arrived, he switched to glide mode.

There was barely any sound when he was gliding. The thrusters would only give a boost now and then to prevent him from dropping too low.

With this stealth system, nobody could see him in the dark sky.

At the address Wade had given him, Luke circled around and expanded his search range.

A lot of people were lying in wait near the address which Wade had given him. It was a trap.

But the person who set the trap knew how important Vanessa was to Wade, and had no plans of hiding his intentions.

Or, maybe it was because he was confident he knew how the loon would react.

Luke didn’t wait for Wade.

If he found where Vanessa was being kept, he would definitely rescue her.

If there was still time, he didn’t mind killing all of them.

It was none of his business what Wade thought when he arrived.

As long as Luke saved his wife, Wade would have to swallow his words.

Five minutes later, Luke found something suspicious.

It was an old freighter docked not far from the location.

It was highly unusual for there to be armed guards patrolling on board the freighter and being so sneaky about it.

The last time Luke had encountered something like this was at the “drug depot” of Uncle Frank’s archenemy, Colonel Ray Schoonover, when Luke had confiscated 1.5 tons of white powder.

Thus, even if this wasn’t where Wade’s wife was being held, there might still be a lot of experience and credit points here.

It didn’t take Luke long to make a decision, and he landed on the deck of the ship.

It was a freighter, but containers weren’t piled up like mountains on the deck, which made it look empty. At first glance, it looked like the deck of a combat carrier.

Nevertheless, there were some containers in one location on the deck. The guards lingered around this area and took turns going out on patrol.

Luke walked past the containers and found Wade’s wife, Vanessa, in the middle container.

There were only two fully-armed men inside. Clearly, they didn’t think much of Vanessa.

Indeed, Vanessa’s hands and feet were tied, and her mouth was taped shut. She couldn’t do anything except move slightly in a chair.

Luke didn’t bother to hide anymore. As he deactivated the stealth system, he threw two daggers into the container. The two men died instantly without seeing anything.

Vanessa’s eyes widened and she couldn’t help but cry out.

Luke was very satisfied that her mouth had been taped shut. He didn’t have to worry about her crying out and drawing attention.

Thinking that, he said, “Wade asked me to save you. I’ll take you to him.”

Vanessa’s eyes, which had just returned to normal, widened again. She started making noise and struggled.

Luke shook his head and walked over to the two men. Retrieving his daggers, he cut the rope tying her to the chair. “The fight has already started. Just stay like this for now so that you don’t get in the way.”

Vanessa: “Huh?”

Then, she felt herself float out of the container, and after that… she really was flying.

Seeing the deck getting further and further away from her, Vanessa temporarily stopped complaining and simply stared blankly at her feet.

Holding her by the rope at her back with one hand, Luke took out his revolver with the other.

The support system on his back fired a few short bursts, and when he flew past several containers on the ship, he pulled the trigger.

After a few gunshots, four men were killed.

Putting the revolver away, he adjusted the trajectory of his glide and sped toward Wade, who was more than 200 meters away.

A moment ago, Wade was pissing his pants as he hid behind a pile of junk, though he didn’t forget to mutter to himself, “I knew it. A reliable man is as believable as a sow climbing a tree, and it’s the same with old British guys. What meet-up? I’ve already been shot in the ass, but he still isn’t here. If he takes any longer, these big chaps are going to bust my ass open.”

In fact, it wasn’t just his ass.

Except for his head, he was riddled with bullet holes everywhere.

However, except for the fact that it hurt, it didn’t affect him much.

Also, the pain was nothing compared with when he watched a thin and pallid Vanessa from afar.

On the contrary, the pain made him feel that he was still alive, not dead.

Hm, wait, my heart’s dead too! Without Vanessa, I’m better off dead! Let me die!?Wade howled in his heart.

Thinking that, he charged out amidst the junk with bullets flying.

Four or five of the dozens of criminals on the other side immediately collapsed… and then Wade threw himself behind an abandoned fridge.

Dozens of holes appeared in the fridge.

Wade groaned and felt his body with both hands. “Ah, wow, that hurts!”

That charge just now had put four or five more holes in him, which was the same number of people who had collapsed.

“Damn it, fight me one-on-one if you dare!” he shouted.

Bang!

“Ah!”

He hadn’t been able to dodge in time, and was shot.

Pulling his leg back, he suddenly made up his mind and shouted, “Wait, wait, I have something to say.”

The criminals suddenly fell silent.

This lunatic, who was wearing a dark red suit and didn’t even show his face, had clearly been hit several times. How was he still so energetic?

This wasn’t a movie.

Many of them were using rifles.

A person shot with a rifle bullet wouldn’t be able to move.

Even if it was just a limb, as long as an arm or leg was hit, it would basically be crippled.

In a movie, it was impossible to still be jumping around after being shot if you weren’t wearing a bulletproof vest.
