“Oh, did you figure it out?
It seems I really can’t let you live then.” Hearing Kingpin’s words, a flash of annoyance crossed 2B’s face.
Then, she exerted massive force with her hand, flinging the massive Kingpin, who was grabbing her arm, backward.
He crashed heavily into the helicopter behind him.
Kingpin was incredibly heavy, but 2B possessed immense strength.
According to Loren’s calculations, her steel body could exert at least three tons of force.
Such physical power was easily comparable to super soldiers like Captain America, and was naturally not something Kingpin’s level of existence could match.
“Ugh!
*Pfft!*” The powerful impact immediately made Kingpin spit out a mouthful of blood.
He slumped miserably to the ground, looking thoroughly pathetic, stripped of all the majesty of an underworld emperor.
Just then, Loren’s voice spoke through 2B’s mouth.
“You should know that in your current state, you are absolutely no match for me.
Giving up your struggle now is your best option.
“With your standing, you couldn’t possibly be the mastermind behind the assassination of the Morgan patriarch.
“So there must be a more powerful force backing you.
“Tell me, who is pulling the strings behind all of this?
If you tell me the truth, I can give you a swift, comfortable death.” Hearing Loren’s voice suddenly, Kingpin was surprised, but he was still unwilling to surrender.
He laughed aloud.
“Hahaha!
Do you think I, Kingpin, am the type of person who fears death?” “Of course you aren’t.
But I know you are a good husband and father who loves his wife and son.
“I imagine you wouldn’t want to see what is happening to you right now happen to them, would you?” “You wouldn’t dare!
Families are off-limits!
That is the code of the underworld!” “You went and murdered someone else’s parents, yet you expect others to follow the rules of the underworld?
Don’t you think that sounds ridiculous?” Hearing Loren’s words, Kingpin was left speechless, unable to offer any rebuttal.
He knew the other party was absolutely right.
He was the one who sent people to kill someone else’s parents first, so demanding that others adhere to the rules of the underworld now was indeed laughable.
At this realization, his tone softened.
He said, “If you promise me you won’t touch them, I will tell you everything I know.” “Excellent.
Now you’re talking like a smart man.
I promise you.
Go ahead.” Just as Kingpin was about to speak, a bullet suddenly streaked from the distance, aimed directly at the back of 2B’s head.
But as an General Combat Android, 2B’s built-in sensors immediately detected the bullet’s trajectory.
Her head automatically reacted to dodge, tilting to the side in a flash, effortlessly avoiding the attack.
However, because she dodged, the bullet grazed her cheek and struck Kingpin right between the eyes.
With a dull thud, Kingpin, who was just about to make a deathbed confession, instantly lost all signs of life.
Because Loren was controlling 2B remotely from very close to Kingpin, blood splatted onto her face.
This turn of events was so unexpected that even Loren didn’t have time to react.
Right at that moment, another bullet flew toward her at extreme speed.
With Kingpin’s death as a warning, 2B was already on high alert.
Before the bullet could reach her, she reacted instinctively.
She rolled to the side, narrowly evading the bullet’s trajectory, but the shooter clearly had no intention of letting her off so easily.
The moment she evaded, a second and third bullet followed in rapid succession.
The shooter’s marksmanship was exceptionally lethal; both bullets were aimed precisely between her eyebrows, clearly intending a fatal blow.
However, as an General Combat Android, she was built for battle.
Her combat experience was far beyond anything a human could match.
In that split second, she swung her katana in a flash.
Two cold gleams sliced through the air, effortlessly severing the two bullets in half.
At the same time, she rapidly analyzed the ballistic trajectory.
In a single instant, she calculated the approximate location of the sniper hiding in the shadows.
If that sniper dared to fire one more shot, she would be absolutely certain of their exact coordinates.
And once she pinpointed the location, it would be the sniper’s execution.
To her surprise, however, the expected fourth bullet never came.
This meant the sniper had likely realized they had been compromised and was preparing to retreat!
Realizing this, Loren did not hesitate.
He abandoned Kingpin’s corpse and ordered 2B to give chase.
2B leaped, jumping directly from the rooftop of Kingpin Tower to the roof of another building dozens of meters away.
She dashed toward her estimated coordinates with the speed of a gale.
Not only that, but she also controlled her anti-gravity drone to scout ahead, trying to spot the sniper’s movements as quickly as possible.
According to her deduction, the sniper must have been sent by the mastermind behind Kingpin.
The goal was to silence Kingpin to prevent him from leaking their identity.
As long as she could catch that damned sniper, she could extract information about the mastermind from them.
This was her last chance for the day.
If she missed it, the investigation would grind to a halt, and she would fail the task Loren had assigned to her.
This was unacceptable to her.
Her purpose of creation by Loren was to solve his problems and handle his needs.
If she could not even do this, her existence would be meaningless.
A meaningless existence was something she could never accept.
Thus, she had to drag this sniper out of hiding and complete her mission.
After leaping across several rooftops in rapid succession, she arrived before a slightly dilapidated building—the approximate area where she estimated the sniper to be.
Yes, only an approximate area.
She still could not confirm the exact location with absolute certainty.
Right then, however, the anti-gravity drone she sent ahead captured footage of the sniper shifting positions.
Looking at the captured feed, a cold smile appeared on 2B’s face.
She leaped once more, launching herself like a cannonball toward the room where the man was.
Her steel body ignored all obstacles, crashing straight through the glass window of the room to land right in front of the sniper, who was in the middle of relocating.
“I found you!” 2B’s hand clawed toward the sniper’s neck.
If she caught him, it would surely result in death or severe injury.
But the man was no amateur.
He instantly raised his sniper rifle in front of him as a shield.
With a sharp *crack*, the sniper rifle was crushed into useless scrap metal under her grip.
The man used this brief opening to leap backward.
Moreover, he swiftly drew a handgun from his waist, attempting to shoot 2B in the head from mere inches away.
But in that exact instant, 2B’s hand moved even faster, pressing down on the gun’s muzzle and stopping the bullet with her bare hand…
