“A sly rabbit has three burrows, indeed.” Watching Kingpin flee in a hurry, 2B’s expression remained perfectly calm, without the slightest trace of worry.
Since she had already laid eyes on Kingpin, she possessed absolute confidence in capturing him.
To her, his current flight was nothing more than the desperate, futile struggle of a dying man.
Although Kingpin was known as the underworld emperor, a title that sounded incredibly formidable, he was no different from any ordinary human in her eyes.
If she had to make a comparison, ordinary humans were like ants to her, and Kingpin was at best a slightly stronger ant.
No matter how much he scurried, he could never escape the palm of her hand.
Noticing that Kingpin was fleeing toward the rooftop, a smile of absolute control appeared on 2B’s face.
She did not chase him along his escape route.
Instead, she leaped, vaulting directly out of the office’s floor-to-ceiling window, scaling the outer wall of the tower with her bare hands toward the rooftop.
In a mere matter of moments, she successfully reached the rooftop.
Right at that moment, Kingpin pushed open the heavy rooftop door, preparing to board the helicopter parked there to make his escape.
When he saw 2B already standing on the rooftop, waiting for him, a complex mix of emotions flashed across his face.
Shock and rage mingled, making his eyes turn a bloodshot red.
Realizing he could not shake 2B off, Kingpin stopped wasting his time and energy.
He stared coldly at her.
“It seems you’re determined to capture me today, no matter what?” Kingpin said, taking off his white suit jacket.
He had decided to stop running; he would give his absolute all against the woman before him.
Because his physique was incredibly massive and muscular, fighting in his white suit would hinder his movement.
Before every battle, he would remove his jacket first—a habit that had long since become his signature move.
Hearing his words, 2B merely shook her head.
“No, you are mistaken.
I am not here to capture you.
I am here to kill you.
“Though, before that, I will pry your mouth open and make you tell me everything you know.” “Woman, you certainly talk big.
I haven’t met someone like you in a very long time.
In that case, let me play with you today.” As his words fell, Kingpin slowly raised his cane, adopting a combat stance.
But in that exact instant, a red laser beam suddenly shot from the tip of the cane, striking at 2B in an unexpected sneak attack.
Faced with this sudden strike, 2B merely stepped aside, effortlessly dodging the beam.
Seeing 2B easily evade his sneak attack, Kingpin did not lose his temper.
Instead, he pressed another button on the cane.
Instantly, a large volume of thick white smoke billowed from the cane.
The composition of this white smoke was unknown, but it was exceptionally dense and slow to disperse.
Within moments, the entire rooftop was completely shrouded.
If an ordinary person were standing in this smoke, they would not be able to see a single thing.
And this was precisely Kingpin’s goal.
Although his physical strength was exceptional, he knew very well that under normal circumstances, he had absolutely no chance of defeating 2B.
Therefore, he had to create an advantageous environment for himself.
Only then would he have a sliver of a chance.
The moment the white smoke blanketed the rooftop, he finally made his move.
He pressed a button at the base of his cane, and with a metallic click, the cane transformed into a sharp, gleaming sword.
Holding the sword, he wasted no words.
He lunged toward 2B with an explosive burst of speed, thrusting the blade toward her neck with unstoppable force.
In his mind, 2B’s vision was completely blocked by the white smoke.
She shouldn’t be able to see his movements at all, making his attack impossible to block, let alone dodge.
However, despite all his calculations, he failed to account for one crucial detail: 2B was not human.
She was an android.
In addition to a human-like visual system, she also possessed infrared thermal imaging capabilities.
Thus, the thick white smoke did not affect her actions in the slightest.
The only reason she had delayed taking action was because she could not kill Kingpin just yet, and because she simply wanted to watch his performance.
Now that the show was over, it was time to end this.
With that thought, she extended two fingers and pinched the tip of Kingpin’s sword with lightning speed, halting its advance completely.
The blade could not budge even a fraction of a millimeter.
This sudden turn of events immediately left Kingpin dumbfounded.
He had made so many preparations just for this split-second strike.
He thought he would succeed, but this woman had neutralized it effortlessly.
He couldn’t comprehend it.
The white smoke had clearly blocked her vision!
How on earth did she do it?
Question after question flashed through his mind, filling him with intense frustration and rage.
This feeling of being utterly toyed with without knowing why was far more unbearable than a direct defeat.
Seeing his sword pinched by 2B, he did not hesitate.
He immediately pressed the button at the base of the hilt, and a laser beam shot out from the tip of the snapped blade, aimed directly between 2B’s eyebrows.
But at that exact moment, 2B’s two fingers suddenly exerted force.
With a sharp *clink*, the tip of the sword was snapped off effortlessly, causing the laser beam to redirect and strike the nearby helicopter.
The powerful penetration and high temperature pierced a finger-sized hole in the helicopter’s cabin door in an instant, showing just how devastating the laser’s power was.
If it had hit 2B just now, it would have undoubtedly caused her significant damage.
“It’s over,” 2B said quietly, looking at Kingpin, her voice laced with flat disdain after effortlessly neutralizing his series of attacks.
Hearing this, Kingpin’s face turned livid.
As the kingpin of crime in New York and indeed the entire United States, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?
His eyes instantly turned red with fury.
In that split second, he abandoned his cane and lunged forward, grabbing one of 2B’s arms with both hands, intending to use his mastery of judo to throw her over his shoulder.
But before he could execute the shoulder throw, he sensed something bizarre.
The moment his hands made contact with 2B’s arm, he felt a bone-chilling cold.
This kind of coldness was definitely not something a living human should possess.
It felt more like the freezing temperature of solid steel.
In an instant, understanding dawned on him.
He stared at 2B, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“You…
you aren’t human!”
