The Guy in Black

Doppelganger

The trio held their breath for a minute before stepping in and checking the bodies littered in the hall. They all have long been dead, lying in pool of blood. Every single body was with wide shocked eyes, some with fear etched on. Some had neatly slit throat, some had a bloody hole on their head. Da Qing shivered.

After some looking around Yunlan stopped paying attention to the bodies and went for the staircase. 1st floor of this warehouse was brighter and neater. There was no visible blood stain or bodies scattered here. Da Qing relaxed before tension filled his muscles again. At the end of this hall there's a chair resembling a throne, on which sat a very familiar face without any trace of familiarity. A brawny man sat kneeling on the ground clutching his side and panted with pained breathing. Blood pooled around the area he sat on.
Wasn't the professor a literary geek? Why is he here with a short sword on his right hand and a gun on his left? Even with the laid back posture he looked cold enough to make goosebumps appear on his whole body.
Shen Wei looked up, and Da Qing trembled. He looks too cold and too cruel.
He must be a doppelganger of the professor. Da Qing is sure of that.

------------------

The male in front looks hot. Yunlan licked his lips. Yes, he knows that his professor has some secrets but he never pressed to know. The only thing he knows is his professor is a righteous man.
Now that he looks at the male, he realised that the secret may be deeper than he imagined. Surely a mere trained person can't massacre a large number of goons this cleanly even if he attacked unnoticed.
At the same time he looked at his tense jaw and temple. He's still angry.
Yunlan strode forward, "Babe, go home... Ok??? Let me handle the things here."
The man still had his face expressionless. With a frosty voice he asked, "When will you be coming home?"
" Soon."
The man stood up. Though the professor and him has the same height, still for now Yunlan felt the man is towering over him. Soon his chin was lifted with a finger under and a chaste kiss was placed on his lips.
"I'll be waiting in front of your office. Leave your car there."
The male looked back at Chu, who with a blank face pointed at the right hand of chief. The short sword flashed with it's steely light and the dying man on floor wailed agonizingly.
Shen Wei looked at Chu Shuzi and ordered, "Don't let him drive."
Chu bowed with respect, much more than what he gives to his upper echelon. The other two looked at them , one with agape mouth and the other with narrowed eyes.
Shen Wei left the warehouse like a ghost in shadows.

Yunlan looked back at the man on the floor breathing shallow. Large amount of blood poured out of his wounds unceasingly. He won't live if not attended right now.
"Don't worry about him." Chu replied with a nonchalance, "He's not gonna live anyway."
Da Qing stuttered, "W..Wh...What's going on?"
Yunlan fixed his eyes on Chu and ignored Da Qing, "Let's find if any evidence is left behind first."
Chu Shuzi shook his head, "Don't bother. What we need is the things placed on this table. He leaves nothing behind for himself... ... .. Let's not waste our time. I wanna go home early."
Yunlan nodded his head slowly and took his eyes off his colleague.
"Sure... Let's do just that."

---------------------

It took them several hours before the trio could go back at their office. The aftermath of this incident can be bigger than normal and Yunlan worried about his boyfriend's safety.
He'd have to trade through this thing very cautiously. But the moment Chu stopped the car in front of their building, his mouth went slack.
There stood his boyfriend with a black bike, a leather jacket over his black hoodie. Honestly if not for Chu pointing towards him, Yunlan would have thought he's hallucinating.
Gleefully he jumped out of his car and  skipped to his bike. He'll have to make sure that this night's gonna be fun. The answers can wait for later.
