Ten minutes later.
Four frightened constables, in pairs, almost half-dragged and half-carried the "barely breathing" Li Shang and Chang Erbing out of the sewer passage.
Without any pause, they were quickly stuffed into the back seat of a blue-white police car parked not far away.
Old Wang and another older constable got into the same car, while the other two younger constables quickly ran toward another vehicle.
Just as the car door closed, Chang Erbing, not even seated properly yet, grabbed the back of the front seat tightly and urged urgently, still in shock:
"Quick! Drive, now... don't run into [Mask] again!"
Before he finished speaking, the engine roared, and the car shot out like a startled wild horse, its tires crunching over gravel with a piercing noise.
Old Wang sat in the passenger seat, turned halfway around, still catching his breath from running:
"Captain Li, you two just ran into [Mask] again. How did you even end up in the sewer passage?"
