Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 519: Chapter 519: Isn’t This Timing Too Perfect?_1

Crack!

Jiang Chen rushed to the side of the SUV’s driver as soon as he got out of the car, and hoisted him up, his expression darkening as he spoke, ”You...”

”Ah!”

A cry of alarm rang out, and Jiang Chen’s face changed – it was Yè Yùwǎn’s voice!

He hurriedly turned his head, and Jiang Chen charged out.

Suddenly, a young man wielding a dagger burst out from a nearby green belt, charging straight for Yè Yùwǎn.

Realizing Jiang Chen was coming at him, the young man twisted his wrist, changing his target, and stabbed directly at Jiang Chen.

Snap!

Jiang Chen grabbed the young man’s wrist and countered to snatch the dagger from his grasp.

The young man pushed forward with all his might, attempting to drive the dagger into Jiang Chen’s chest.

However, Jiang Chen’s hand was immovable as if it were a city wall, and a cold smile crept across his face. Just as he was about to take the dagger, a look of astonishment suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Chen was resisting the young man’s stab, naturally exerting an outward force; just as he seemed about to seize the dagger, the young man gritted his teeth, stopped pushing towards Jiang Chen, reversed the direction of the blade, and, utilizing the outward force from Jiang Chen, plunged the knife into his own chest, piercing straight into his heart!

The struggle between the two ended in the blink of an eye.

But to an onlooker, this rapid shift appeared as if Jiang Chen had killed the young man!

”This...” Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, rushing to support the young man’s body.

”Jiang Chen, be careful!”

As Jiang Chen held the young man, a cry of alarm sounded; sensitively he looked up to see the driver he had kicked out of the SUV had somehow produced a gun, aiming at him, ready to pull the trigger.

Whoosh!

In a desperate move, Jiang Chen pulled the dagger from the young man’s chest and threw it at the driver.

Thwack!

The dagger drove straight into the driver’s throat, and he fell to the ground with shock in his eyes, his finger already on the trigger, but with no strength left, unable to fire.

”Jiang Chen, are you alright?” Yè Yùwǎn pushed forward in panic, shoving the young man’s body aside, anxiously checking on Jiang Chen.

”I’m fine.” Jiang Chen shook his head slightly, his eyes reflecting a trace of confusion; today’s events did not seem simple.

Wailing!

Just then, the sound of police sirens blared, and two cars from the Law Enforcement Bureau stopped at the entrance of the club.

Bang, bang, bang!

Several officers got out, immediately surrounding Jiang Chen, ”You are suspected of murder, put your hands up, stop resisting!”

Jiang Chen coldly scanned them, scoffing, ”That was fast.”

But Yè Yùwǎn, frantic, stood in front of Jiang Chen, loudly defending, ”What are you doing? We were just defending ourselves!”

An officer stepped forward, speaking coldly, ”We received a report that this gentleman has committed murder, please come with us. We’ll thoroughly investigate everything; we won’t wrong an innocent person nor will we let any guilty party go.”

”You...” Yè Yùwǎn wanted to argue further, but Jiang Chen patted her shoulder and said, ”Yu Wan, I’ll go with them, don’t worry, it’ll be alright!”

Jiang Chen had figured it out; this was a conspiracy against him. Otherwise, why would they arrive so quickly right after the incident, since it wasn’t near a police station? However, Jiang Chen was not worried; he noticed the insignia on the Law Enforcement Bureau’s car – it was from the Dingjing headquarters, and that made things easier.

”Give my car to Gong Lin, she’ll know what to do!” he whispered to Yè Yùwǎn, slipping the car keys into her pocket. Without any resistance, Jiang Chen allowed himself to be handcuffed and followed the officers onto the car.

But just as he got into the car, someone approached the window, bent down, and stared intently at Jiang Chen through the glass.

Jiang Chen glanced over and was slightly surprised. This person was none other than the young man who had just been on a blind date with Ye Yuwan.

”Allow me to introduce myself. I am Zhang Kun, the eldest son of the Jincheng Zhang Family, and the brother of Zhang Feng,”

He began to speak with a smile, ”I need to thank you for eliminating a competitor for me, but in order to enhance my prestige within the family, you, too, must die.

Nevertheless, you are indeed formidable, having killed two of my men.

But you’ve committed murder, and you can’t escape from this crime. I will have you shot, and you should feel honored to become the steppingstone for me, Zhang Kun, to ascend to the position of family heir!”

Zhang Kun maintained his smile, yet his eyes were filled with murderous intent and a haughty indifference.

The brother of Zhang Feng? Hmph.

Jiang Chen slightly narrowed his eyes, finally understanding, and looked at Zhang Kun with a hint of mockery

”No wonder it was so strange. Two Royal Realm Martial Artists resorting to such despicable means of assassination and yet, failing to kill a defenseless woman. It seems the real target was me. However, if the deaths of two Royal Realm Martial Artists did not lead to my demise, I wonder how your family views you now? Eh, Young Master Zhang?”

”Heh, there’s no need for you to worry about that. Your death is certain.” Zhang Kun replied with a meaningful laugh, completely unconcerned by Jiang Chen’s words.

With that, Zhang Kun turned and left.

Only then did the police car start its siren and drive away from the scene.

Throughout the journey, Jiang Chen frowned in deep thought.

Considering the resources of the Four Great Aristocratic Families, the death of two Royal Realm Martial Artists was already a significant loss. Could it be that the foundation of the Jincheng Zhang Family was so much stronger than that of the Four Great Aristocratic Families that they didn’t care about the loss of two Royal Realm Martial Artists?

Was the Zhang Family already so powerful?

Even upon arriving at the police station, Jiang Chen couldn’t figure out the answer to this question.

”Name!”

”Jiang Chen.”

”Gender!”

”Male.”

”Age!”

...

In the interrogation room at the police station, Jiang Chen was handcuffed to a chair for questioning.

”Why did you kill? What grudge do you have against those two men?” The law enforcement officer glared at Jiang Chen, his face stern.

Jiang Chen replied indifferently, ”I was acting in self-defense.”

”Bullshit! If it was self-defense, how come you don’t have a single injury, while those two are dead by your hand? Do you think we are fools?” the officer barked angrily.

Jiang Chen glanced at the officer and a hint of a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, ”How would you know a murder was going to take place there? Don’t tell me you arrived after receiving a report of a death. There wouldn’t be enough time!”

”We received a report a long time ago!” the officer responded without thinking.

Jiang Chen laughed, ”You received a report long ago? That a murder was going to happen there? Then please tell me, how did the person reporting the crime know someone was going to die there?”

The two officers in charge of the interrogation were taken aback, exchanged glances, and when they looked back at Jiang Chen, they both had a hint of scornful mockery on their lips. Yet neither of them spoke or answered the question, their expressions enigmatic.

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door, and one of the officers opened it. Seeing the person at the door, the officer was slightly taken aback, ”Li Ke?”
