The location of the TV signal tower is quite remote.

Surrounded by vast wastelands and unfinished industrial parks, it’s at least several dozen kilometers from the bustling city center.

Usually, apart from the occasional passing of nearby village vehicles, it remains practically deserted.

At this time, not even a ghostly shadow could be seen.

That’s also why Fang Cheng chose this place as the battlefield.

However, the distant sound of sirens subtly broke the tranquility.

Obviously, the gigantic mushroom cloud and the massive explosion just now had alarmed the East Capital police.

Hearing the sirens getting closer, Xiao Shuai and Xu Hao seemed visibly nervous.

Xu Hao quickly opened the car door and urged:

"Boss, it looks like the cops are coming. Should we get out of here?"

Fang Cheng calmly buttoned the last button of his shirt, adjusted his collar, and casually replied:

"No rush, just wait for me a moment."

"What? Wait for what?"

Xu Hao was puzzled, yet before the words even left his mouth.

"Whoosh—"

He only felt a blur in front of his eyes, as a violent gust suddenly exploded before him without warning.

Blowing his entire face like waves, his hairstyle instantly turned into a bird’s nest.

"Boom!!!"

Followed by a thunderous sonic boom that belatedly reached his eardrums.

Fang Cheng, who was just standing there, had vanished without a trace in an instant.

Leaving behind only a cloud of dust raised by a supersonic shock wave, streaking straight toward the ruins a few kilometers away.

"Damn..."

Xu Hao staggered back a couple of steps, and sat down on the hood of the car.

Finally coming back to his senses, he exchanged a look of disbelief with the equally stunned Xiao Shuai.

"Buddy, was that speed even humanly possible?"

Xiao Shuai swallowed hard, staring blankly at the figure long vanished into the night:

"Don’t make a big fuss... Our Chairman is an unparalleled expert."

Xu Hao was momentarily taken aback and then nodded vigorously:

"Right, jumping from high altitudes like it’s nothing, running that fast does make sense..."

The two hadn’t finished marveling.

"Whoosh—"

Another powerful gust swept over, mercilessly blowing Xu Hao’s just-tamed hairstyle back into a bird’s nest.

The figure that had just disappeared reappeared in front of the car as if by teleportation.

Fang Cheng stood there calmly, seemingly not even out of breath.

His face was slightly flushed, as if he had just finished a warm-up exercise.

Now, on his shoulder, there was a bulging blue canvas bag.

It was previously thrown from the rooftop of the ruins to avoid damaging its contents for the sake of battle convenience.

Since the fight with Ghost Scythe was over, the bag had to be picked up promptly.

It contained many personal items that absolutely couldn’t be left at the crime scene for the police to find and trace back to him.

"Let’s go."

Fang Cheng opened the car door and casually tossed the canvas bag into the back seat.

By now, the distant sirens had become audibly clear, with red and blue flashing police lights glaring prominently in the night.

"Xu Hao, take my Land Rover and head to your Midnight Forest Bar for now. Don’t use the car anytime soon."

"Right away, boss! Mission accomplished guaranteed!"

Without further ado, Xu Hao jumped into the Land Rover and sped off.

Fang Cheng then settled into the back seat of Xiao Shuai’s modified off-road vehicle.

The window rolled up, cutting off the outside wind and sirens.

Xiao Shuai drove with concentration, gripping the steering wheel tightly and proceeding smoothly.

The off-road vehicle had just pulled onto the main road when several police cars with flashing red and blue lights roared past them, speeding toward the ruins.

Fang Cheng turned his head, his eyes flickering slightly through the tinted car window.

He then withdrew his gaze, relaxed back into the seat, pulled out a phone from his bag, and skillfully dialed a number.

"Beep—beep—"

After two rings, the call was quickly connected.

"Monkey, how’s the situation on your end?"

Fang Cheng asked.

The voice on the other end paused half a second before replying in a steady and respectful tone:

"Chairman, rest assured, everything is normal at Old Factory Street."

"The accomplice of the target codenamed ’Night Owl’ has not shown up, and there haven’t been any suspicious individuals approaching."

"Apart from the communication signal intercepted an hour ago, the surveillance system has been operating normally."

"Big Hammer is stationed in front of the tubular building, keeping a close watch on the entrance, ready to report any slight movement."

"Alright, understood."

Fang Cheng relaxed his brows.

One has to admit, Monkey’s professional capability is indeed exceptional.

In just half a day, he had set up an unparalleled surveillance network around the complex tubular building.

Hacking into street security cameras, supplemented by a dozen disguised micro-cameras, this setup covered the entire area, ensuring any unfamiliar face would be identified.

Especially with the military-grade signal detector from the Black Market in Big Hammer’s possession, serving as the core of this surveillance system.

According to Monkey, this device can capture communication signals within tens of meters and transmit data in real time to a terminal computer for monitoring and analysis.

Fang Cheng was able to learn Ghost Scythe’s identity by successfully intercepting an encrypted conversation between two suspicious targets.

It was precisely because of this that he played along with the situation in the ruins, deliberately bringing up his father, Fang Shijie, to lead the opponent into a mental trap.

With a brief thought, Fang Cheng then instructed:

"Monkey, the target has been successfully eliminated by me."
