A flick of the other wrist actives Li Jing’s wrist mounted gas canisters.
Caption: Still, insecticide canisters remain a versatile weapon.
Panel 2
The butterfly reels. Li Jing hovers for a second in the air, once again readying her scalpel.
Panel 3
Li Jing dives, her scalpel cutting through the butterfly, separating its thorax from abdomen.
Panel 4
Butterflies fall to pieces in the background. Li Jing and others from her team glide back towards their transport.
Captions: There’s only time to tackle a few targets on each raid. Then it’s back to our aircraft and home before we’re noticed.
Panel 5
The aircraft blows up, incinerating Li Jing’s teammates.
Caption: Right... Scratch that plan.
Panel 6
The culprit was an American jet, and it’s flying right at us!
Panel 7
Li Jing charges towards the jet, her scalpel fully powered.
Caption: You’d think they might welcome our efforts to clean up their mess.
Panel 8
Li Jing and the jet collide. The jet pilot shields themselves from shattered glass as Li Jing smashes through the windshield.
Caption: Instead of classifying us as hostile forces invading their skies.
