Zhao Kuntai was also stunned when he heard this - if it was their people who successfully killed the Xia family, someone should have gone upstairs to get the news, but now it's too quiet! Is it possible...
The two looked at each other, and saw confusion and uneasiness in each other's eyes.
…
In the basement, Grandma and Grandma Liu were panicked after hearing the sudden gunshots outside!
Countless possibilities flashed through their minds, and each possibility made their hearts beat faster.
Xia Shige looked at the surveillance video on her mobile phone with a serious expression. Most of the cameras inside and outside the villa had been broken by the criminals' gunfire. Fortunately, the one at the entrance to the basement still survived. She could only stare at the screen, ready to deal with any criminals who broke into the basement at any time.
Xia Shige felt distressed when she heard the gunshots outside. She also wanted to go out to help Officer Zhou Hong, but she was afraid that some criminals would break into the basement. She couldn't leave her grandmother and Grandma Liu here alone!
Xia Shige thought about it over and over again, feeling anxious.
Grandma clenched her hands tightly, her knuckles slightly white from the excessive force; Grandma Liu's lips trembled slightly, and she murmured to herself: "God, please don't let anything happen..."
Xia Shige whispered to comfort her: "Grandma, Grandma Liu, don't worry, the police will be here soon."
In the living room, Zhou Hong turned off the gangster's flashlight, and the hall suddenly fell into darkness again.
Because he didn't know how many people had sneaked into the villa, Zhou Hong didn't dare to go upstairs to check rashly. He could only continue to ambush on the first floor.
Just as he huddled in the corner and picked up the night vision goggles, suddenly, a burning piece of clothing was thrown down from the stairs!
The burning clothes fell on a wooden chair in the hall. The wooden chair was covered with a cotton mat. The cotton mat was flammable, and the wooden chair underneath was also ignited. The flames instantly illuminated the entire living room!
The thug in the assault jacket was about to go downstairs, but when he lowered his head, he saw Zhou Hong in the corner of the hall. He was startled and immediately raised his pistol at Zhou Hong.
Unfortunately, he was a step too slow. Zhou Hong had already raised his gun and aimed at him. With the help of the firelight, he shot him in the chest!
The thug groaned and fell to the ground.
Sparks flew from the burning wooden chair, occasionally bouncing onto the carpet.
Zhou Hong stood in the corner and saw the fire was about to spread over. From his position, he would have nowhere to retreat if the fire came over.
Suddenly, he saw two fire extinguishers placed next to the sofa. Zhou Hong looked upstairs, gritted his teeth, and reached out to touch the fire extinguishers next to the sofa.
But just as he reached out, a gunshot suddenly rang out from the villa, and Zhou Hong felt a heavy blow to his left shoulder! A bullet hit his shoulder!
He groaned, not caring that his shoulder was bleeding from the gunshot wound, and retreated to a corner while raising his gun and firing two shots at the upstairs.
Unfortunately, he missed and the bullets in the gun were all gone.
Just as Zhou Hong was reaching for the magazine with trembling hands, Zhao Kuntai came down from upstairs.
He walked around the burning wooden chairs and carpets, covered his mouth and nose with one hand with his clothes to prevent inhaling smoke, and with the other hand held the gun and fired two more shots at Zhou Hong.
Zhou Hong quickly rolled over to avoid the incoming bullets, but one bullet still hit his thigh.
Zhou Hong groaned and fell to the ground in a mess.
Seeing Zhou Hong fall in the blood with a painful expression, Zhao Kuntai looked almost crazy. He covered his mouth and nose and shouted in a muffled voice: "Zhou Hong, I didn't expect you, a bastard, to be here too! This is perfect, I'll get rid of you first, and then burn this family to death!"
Zhou Hong looked at Zhao Kuntai, gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up, preparing to pounce on him and snatch Zhao Kuntai's pistol.
However, his thigh and left shoulder were hit by bullets, and he inhaled a lot of smoke. He felt that he had no strength in his body and even began to lose consciousness.
Zhou Hong felt a little desperate. He had never felt death was so close to him.
Not sure if it was an illusion, he faintly heard gunshots coming from outside.
The smile on Zhao Kuntai's face looked particularly distorted in the light of the fire, and he approached Zhou Hong step by step.
Just as Zhou Hong was about to crawl over and hug Zhao Kuntai and roll into the sea of fire, he heard a gunshot behind him.
There was a hole in Zhao Kuntai's chest, and blood was flowing out of it.
Zhao Kuntai's eyes, which were originally full of pride, suddenly became a little dazed. Before he could even look up to see what happened underneath, he fell straight down!
Zhou Hong was also stunned when he saw this. He gasped and raised his head with difficulty. He saw Xia Huiyin standing at the door of the hall in the light of the fire, with a pistol tightly held in her hand.
