Chapter 693 Assassination

The guards' attitude is very important to us. Su Mu's appearance now is also to test which side these guards are inclined to. If these guards are more inclined to us, then there is no need to say anything more. When they see Su Mu, they will naturally put down their guns.

However, if they don't have them, Su Mu will be in danger, so he has no choice but to take a gamble. According to Chang Jie, there are actually quite a few guards who want to leave, so the chances of winning the gamble are still very high.

Su Mu left my side, took off his hat, revealing his face. He was very tall, and with his strong muscles, he stood out from the crowd.

The guards searching ahead immediately spotted Su Mu standing up. They pointed their guns at him and shouted, "Don't move!"

Su Mu raised his hands without moving, looked at the two guards in front of him, and asked, "Do you recognize me?"

I crouched a short distance behind, gun in hand, already aimed at the guards ahead. If they showed any sign of making a move, I would open fire and kill them all. As soon as the gunfire rang out, the troops lying in ambush outside Jiangbei would hear it. Then I would give the signal, and the troops outside would rush into Jiangbei and begin a forceful crackdown on the entire region.

The guards in front looked at Su Mu with furrowed brows, seemingly unfamiliar with him. However, some recognized him. The leading guard, after recognizing Su Mu, was full of surprise. He glanced at the guards who had scattered around him and asked in a low voice, "Are you Chief Su Mu?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, I am Su Mu."

The guard glanced at the two men behind him and told them to come up quickly. After saying a few words to them, the two men put down their guns and looked at Su Mu in surprise, somewhat disbelieving.

The lead guard said, "Chief Su Mu, you should squat down right now so no one can see you."

Su Mu glanced around but didn't squat down. He asked, "Why can't I let others see me? I came here to let you know I'm here."

The head guard said, "No, that's not what I meant. I know you came here to help us, but the committee still has a lot of influence. Many people in the guard team still support the committee, like those guys over there. If you try to force your way in, they won't show you any mercy. So you should squat down first and not be discovered by others."

Su Mu glanced at the two people searching not far away, slowly squatted down, and waved to the guard in front of him. The guard came to stand beside him.

"How many members of the guard still support the committee?" Su Mu asked.

The guard said, "There are still about fifty people supporting it. Half of them have come out to search, and the other half are still inside the building. According to their thinking, they will probably continue to support the committee. After your news reached the higher-ups, they went crazy and wanted to come out and arrest you."

Su Mu frowned. "I understand. Could you please tell me who these people are who came out to search?"

The guard glanced around and said, "No problem, but they're all scattered and searching in different directions. Many of them aren't in this area."

Su Mu said, "Then let me follow you. I'll disguise myself as a guard. You can point out who they are, and I'll take care of them."

Upon hearing Su Mu's words, the guard was immediately terrified. "Chief Su, isn't this too dangerous?"

Su Mu said, "The whole of Jiangbei is in a state of panic right now. If we don't do this, how can we liberate Jiangbei? I fought hard to win this place, and I don't want to see those idiots on the committee ruin it. If you feel it's dangerous, you don't have to take action. I'll do it myself."

The guard sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, Chief Su, I can help you, but isn't it a bit too dangerous for you to go alone?"

Su Mu said, "Who said I'm alone? Don't worry, someone will help me order."

The person who helped him was naturally me. I hid to the side and heard everything they said. Originally, assassinating the guards was not part of the plan, but since Su Mu had made this decision, I couldn't object. After all, the plan was quite feasible, and killing those supporters would weaken the committee's power, making it easier to resist later.

The guard said, "Alright then, Chief Su, come with me."

Su Mu stood up from the ground again, and I quietly followed behind them. I saw them walk towards the group of four people not far away.

I heard the guard say to Su Mu, "All four of them are supporters of the committee."

"Mm." Su Mu nodded.

As they approached, the other four people saw Su Mu and his group and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Instead of taking action immediately, Su Mu removed his hat, revealing his face, and stood in front of them with a smile, asking, "Do you know each other?"

I had already quietly circled around behind those four people, preparing to launch a sneak attack.

The four men recognized Su Mu the moment they saw him and quickly raised their guns to threaten him.

At that moment, I took action, pulled out a dagger, and ambushed them from behind. The last one was stabbed in the back of the head and died instantly.

I then put him down and tried to stab the second person in the head, but by then they had already realized what was happening and turned around.

At that moment, Su Mu and his group also made their move, moving extremely quickly.

The remaining three people didn't even have time to react before they were killed.

Those around who witnessed this scene were terrified and took a few steps back, but no one shouted.

Su Mu looked at the people around him and said, "You all know me, right? Help me out by hiding these corpses. We'll continue killing people. Once we've killed everyone we need to, Jiangbei will be safe."

Upon hearing this, the people around spontaneously began to hide the four corpses on the ground. Many people came out to search, but there were relatively few people in this area, so the search teams were also relatively small. No one saw us killing the people, so everything was safe.

Su Mu said to the guard beside him, "Let's continue."

The guard nodded: "Yes, come with me."

Next, I continued to follow behind Su Mu. At the same time, I found a safe place and notified Pu Weichao outside that we were currently inside assassinating members of the committee, and that the people outside should be prepared at any time.

After all, no one knows if the assassination will go smoothly, and if something goes wrong, they will need outside support.
