260 Code T Ra

"What is with that commotion?" Lee An parked his car at the side and got off the car to take a look. That was when he saw a man falling off from a building. He looked around and saw that the bystanders were taking videos and pictures of the whole scene.

Lee An looked up to see someone familiar at the edge of the fourth floor fighting against a group of gangsters. "What is happening?" Lee An said out loud, but no one care for him as the bystanders were cheering on the fight.

Lee An could not help but try to call the police for backup. "Hello, 119. Wanhua District Station Operator here, what is the emergency?"

"This is Inspector Lee An from the Tiangong District Station. Badge Number 0928X. There is currently a major fight breaking out at 19th Wanhua Street. I want to request for backup due to the situation."

"Inspector Lee An, are you injured, or actively in the fight?" The Operator asked which seemed like a bizarre question, but Lee An answered.

"No, I am neither. I am witnessing a fight breaking out." Lee An replied as he saw another guy fell from the fourth floor.

"Inspector Lee An. I am sorry to say that we will not be providing any police support at 19th Wanhua Street for today. I suggest you do not become involved with the fight. We will not be liable for any injuries you incurred. This is the first and last warning I am giving you. It is Code T Rat."

"What?! Code T Rat?! Fuck you!" Lee An cancelled the call and knew what that meant. "Damn! This is the Ruby Rat Triad territory?" Lee An thought to himself. Code T Rat meant that the triad of the Royal Zodiac Rat had full control of the street and recommended police not to interfere. The only one that was able to overwrite this is the military which was co-owned by all twelve Zodiacs Clans since they were the government. Unless there was a majority overrule, the military would not act on streets owned by the various Triads of the Royal Zodiac.

In short, this street he was currently in was a lawless state, owned solely by the Ruby Rat Triad. Whatever they say is the law. There was no other way that Jin could get out of there alive, and Lee An could not provide any solid backup. He could only pray that Jin would be okay.

Jin knew that he was facing gangsters, similar to the ones he fought in Shenzhen Zoo. He was merciless against them because these triad members dealt with drugs, prostitution and probably things against the law. The fact that there were no police till now would mean one thing. Jin figured he stepped into territory belonging to them or that was what Inspector Lee and Xue Ping talked about before as part of a casual discussion in the shop.

*Clap Clap Clap*

"I say, you do provide some decent entertainment." Yamazaki clapped his hand as he laughed it out.

"Tell me, brat. Why are you doing this? Did you not know that he was going to kidnap you and put you under our care? Or are you one of those people with some high fucking sense of justice?" Yamazaki asked.

"Not really. You just said that if I can defeat you, you will remove his debt. Removing his debt meant that his daughter would be free too. I care for his daughter since she is my employee. Hence." Jin said as he smashed his hilt on a gangster's head before slashing his chest.

"Ah, I see. Now that makes sense. But did you not hear from Brother Ong? That girl should have already been kidnapped right, Ong?" Yamazaki looked Ong, and he took out his phone to make a call in loudspeaker mode.

"Hello, where's the-" Ong tried to call, but all he heard was shouting.

"Boss! I am sorry I couldn't call back! We tried to intrude that guy's house as instructed, but there is this bodyguard of his that fiercely protects the house! Not to mention, we heard police sirens coming! We tried to surround him, but he beat the shit out of us!"

"Then why did you not report this earlier?" Ong suddenly wanted to turn off loudspeaker mode, but Yamazaki was looking at him sternly.

"That bodyguard tied us up…he accepted your call to relay this message." Suddenly, Ong heard another voice speaking on the phone.

"She's safe and sound. Go wild, Boss." Zeru said it clearly in loudspeaker mode before he hung up.

"Looks like your daughter is safe and sound. Brother Hui." Yamazaki's face turned sour as he stared with murderous intent.

"Who are you exactly?" Brother Ong stood up in a fit of anger.

"Just a rather protective boss." Jin grabbed Zheng Hui, and suddenly he took the initiative to jump out of the restaurant, off the fourth floor.

"Your debut, Peppers," Jin said as he pointed his smartphone towards the restaurant's window.

"Boss, you are the best." Peppers' wooden staff appeared out of the smartphone, and she did not hesitate to cast an explosion aimed at the restaurant.

*BADABOOM!*

A huge bomb-like bang on the fourth floor went off that hugely panicked everyone in the vicinity as they started to take cover from the explosion. At that moment, Jin utilised Panda Rolling that enabled him to land rather safely onto the streets. That was the time when he saw inspector Lee An with his jaws opened wide at both the explosion and at Jin.

"Inspector!" Jin shouted as he carried the feeble Zheng Hui to him and Inspector Lee An quickly ran towards him to help.

"Boss, are you okay? Is this the guy?" Inspector Lee An was extremely confused by the current situation.

"Things got overly complicated, but right now, I am saving this guy." Jin assisted Zheng Hui into Lee An's car, and suddenly he heard a loud defying roar from above. Jin looked up as he saw two well toned figures standing at the edge of the burning restaurant. Their eyes were menacing and directed all of their murderous intent towards Jin and Jin alone.

"Get out of this place now, Inspector Lee. I will buy you some time." Jin said, but Lee An was not moving an inch. How could he leave a civilian in a lurch?

"EVERYONE ASSEMBLE!" Ong projected his voice with immense chi as he tore the burnt clothes away, revealing a body tattoo of numerous rats running all over his body. It looked as if the rats were consuming his entire body. On the other hand, Yamazaki's body revealed a large tattoo of the god Bishamonten holding multiple spears.

At that moment, everyone in Wanhua Street suddenly started to close their windows and shop shutters but out came gangsters from the various shophouses. A gangster did not meant anything but when a shit ton of gangsters came together, the chi they portrayed was in unison. A ginormous Ruby Rat silhouette appeared right above them to scare their enemies before going into the fight.

"You fucking mess with the wrong people." Ong spat his saliva as he placed his hands in his pockets and signalled the assistant gang leaders with just an upwards nod of his head and they started to take their weapons out.

"Does the deal still stand? Defeating you will remove all debts of the family of Lynn Arisato." Jin calmly said towards the overly bulging figures with the restaurant fire continued burning behind him.

"That is if you can pass through them," Yamazaki said as he eyed at Ong. With just a hand signal from Ong, the gangsters started to charge towards Jin.

"Inspector GO NOW!" Jin shouted as he repeatedly banged on Lee An's car to hurry up.

"But! What about you!" Lee An started his engine as quickly as he could with Zheng Hui cowering at the backseats.

"I will be fine." Jin gave a casual salute with his two fingers at Inspector Lee as he reluctantly drove away.

"I will be back Boss. I will be back with support. Just hang in there." Inspector Lee did not know why but he felt that he could trust Jin to be telling the truth when Jin said otherwise.

"Peppers, Zeru, Milk and…Kraft. Time to work." Jin smirked as he brandished his katana out with style at the overwhelming crowd rushing towards him.
