Deep inside, a strange emotion churned within her.
It was humanity's most primal curiosity.
Facing the five burly men charging at her, Tina Shen was truly perplexed.
When the fists and kicks came at her, Tina Shen knew she could not hold back anymore.
Facing five vicious thugs attacking her, holding back would have been a foolish move.
Yes, from the beginning, Tina Shen had not used lethal force.
Otherwise, the two burly men who had fallen earlier would not have been unconscious but dead!
Since the birth of combat, what was its most primal purpose?
She remembered a line from a movie in her past life, where a villain had said: "Kung fu is a killing technique!"
Tina Shen's expression shifted—becoming cold.
Her eyes became as sharp as ice.
In an instant, Tina Shen exploded backwards, effortlessly dodging two fists and a kick.
Her foot halted abruptly, gathering strength, then she charged forward.
Once a person's fists and feet miss, their forward momentum stops, and their rear power breaks.
That moment was the perfect time for a counterattack.
Tina Shen moved with unimaginable speed.
"Boom!" Her raised elbow collided heavily with one of the burly men's neck.
Brutal, precise, and even a bit cruel!
"Crack!" The thug's windpipe made a sharp sound, struggling to breathe as he toppled to the ground.
He wouldn't die, but if the fight wasn't ended quickly, the chance for rescue would be slim.
One second…
Her thoughts spun, but Tina Shen's body never paused, instantly shooting upwards like a flash of lightning.
"Snap!" Both hands grabbed the head of a thug who couldn't dodge in time.
"Boom!" Tina Shen's knee struck like a battering ram, smashing the thug's nose and breaking his facial bones.
When it came to raw power, thighs had more explosive force than fists, given equal training.
As the saying went: "Hands are doors, but legs do the fighting!"
The thug flew backwards upon impact.
Two seconds…
"Snap," Tina Shen blocked an incoming punch with her arms.
She raised her leg, kicking between the thug's legs.
She didn't go all out with this kick, or he would have died right there!
Even so…
"Boom!"
"Ugh!"
The thug collapsed, clutching his groin, eyes rolling back.
Three seconds…
Perhaps it was Tina Shen's ruthless and powerful display that had frightened the remaining two thugs.
Fear appeared on their faces, and they stopped attacking.
But Tina Shen didn't stop. She had no time to waste.
She wasn't sure if Kevin Guo could handle the thug who had escaped.
At 1.7 meters tall, Kevin Guo didn't stand much of a chance against a muscle-bound man over 1.8 meters tall in close combat.
If the thug fought with all his might, Kevin Guo might be in serious danger!
That was a scenario Tina Shen didn't want to see.
So, "Boom…"
A whip-like leg kicked the fourth thug's head.
Four seconds…
She stepped forward, charging.
Just as the fifth thug was about to turn and flee, "Snap!"
Tina Shen grabbed his neck, pulling it backwards and forcing his head to tilt up.
"Boom!"
Her raised elbow slammed into his face.
Five seconds!
The five muscle-bound thugs, just like their two fallen comrades, were all lying on the ground.
One thug, clutching his groin and groaning, was convulsing. The others were all unconscious.
A terrifying martial arts expert… Tina Shen glanced at the pile of muscular men and smirked.
She had gained a new understanding of the abilities granted by the system.
With such terrifying combat skills, forget fighting seven ordinary people.
Even against seven professional fighters, Tina Shen was confident she could hold her own!
The King Butterfly's Nose activated.
The Wax Moth's Ear activated.
Immediately, Tina Shen turned her ear and slightly moved her nose.
Using her sense of smell, she "memorized" the scent of the seven thugs around her, without any hesitation, and sprinted off into the distance.
"Boom!" Kevin Guo was knocked down with a punch, blood flowing from his nose and mouth.
At 39, he wasn't exactly young anymore.
After running over a thousand meters, his physical stamina had plummeted.
The average person's physical endurance still couldn't match a regular gym-goer's.
The punch left Kevin Guo dazed, unable to think straight.
The thug who knocked him down turned to flee.
However…
His leg was tightly grabbed.
Though Kevin Guo had fallen, he still used the last of his strength to prevent the thug from escaping.
Why didn't he use a gun?
Because he didn't have one!
As the muscle-bound thugs had yelled at the beginning, unless it was a particularly dangerous or special case, police officers aren't allowed to carry firearms.
This was because domestic security had improved to the point where weapons weren't needed.
If a police officer were to use a gun unnecessarily, it would be more than just a personal issue.
The entire department would face consequences!
"F*** you, go to hell!"
The thug angrily raised his other foot and kicked towards Kevin Guo.
Despite the pain, Kevin Guo gritted his teeth and hung onto the thug's leg.
"Boom!" The thug's kick landed near Kevin Guo's temple.
The violent impact caused him to lose his grip and fall to the ground, dazed, staring at the sky.
It's because I'm getting old, Kevin Guo thought, bitterly laughing.
Suddenly, the sky darkened.
A familiar face appeared above him.
"Are you okay?"
Tina Shen looked down at the collapsed Kevin Guo.
"I'll live," Kevin Guo replied weakly, his face apologetic. "The guy got away."
"Don't worry. He won't get far."
Tina Shen spoke calmly, "Stay down, don't move, and wait for backup."
With that, Tina Shen sprinted forward like a mother leopard on a furious chase.
Her expression grew colder, fiercer.
Memories from her past life surged in her mind.
They were of police officers who had sacrificed their lives…
I've been too soft-hearted, Tina Shen squinted as she ran.
Her former mentor had scolded her: "A cop can't be soft-hearted."
Mercy cannot command soldiers, good people cannot be cops. Good people can't be cops.
In the eyes of criminals, kindness is seen as laughable weakness.
As a cop, you have to be constantly thinking, constantly scheming, about how to catch the bad guys.
Faced with their cold-blooded cruelty, you must be colder, more ruthless than they are.
Only then can you defeat them, and capture them!
