"???" Li Lin was confused. "How did you get involved..."
He had just uttered a few words when he heard a window not far above him being suddenly pushed open, and a long black metal tube protruded from it.
Caitlin caught a glimpse of him and her breath caught in her throat. "Be careful! He has a gun!"
But an ordinary person's reaction speed is destined to be inferior to that of thermal weapons.
As a flash of orange-yellow fire appeared, a deafening echo came from the alley.
--Bang!
Suddenly, a cold numbness came from Li Lin's shoulder, followed by an unbearable burning sensation that went straight to his brain through the nerves.
At the same time, the system's prompt sounded frantically in the depths of his mind:
HP: 322/585
[Personal status: shot, bleeding]
[Effect: Lose 20 health points per minute]
I... was shot?!
Li Lin has not yet recovered from the shock.
"Hide behind the trash can!"
Before the other party fired the second shot, Caitlin quickly pulled Li Lin down to squat down and cursed anxiously, "Damn it, he even resorted to such a despicable trick as a sneak attack!"
It's totally unethical!
Her eyes were red, and her blue eyes were misty. She looked back at Li Lin with great concern: "Hurry up and hold your wound. Don't let go. Excessive blood loss will cause you to go into shock!"
As she spoke, she tore off a piece of clean cloth from the hem of her clothes and quickly wrapped it around his shoulders a few times as an emergency measure.
Li Lin gritted his teeth and tried hard not to scream, a layer of cold sweat oozing out of his whole body.
Fortunately, after Caitlin gave him a simple bandage, the rate of health loss on the system panel temporarily dropped from 20 points per minute to 12 points.
But delaying like this is not a solution, he still needs timely treatment.
"Ms. Jiraman, I advise you not to struggle anymore. You can't escape from our grasp." A dull and hoarse male voice came from the direction of Li Lin who had just been shot.
As the sound rang out, several figures appeared on the other side of the alley.
Perhaps because they knew Caitlin was holding a weapon, they all hid behind cover and did not dare to reveal their bodies.
Stay calm. Times like this require more calmness... This group of people only has one gun, and the advantage is mine.
Caitlin took a few quick, deep breaths, forcing herself to calm her nerves. She snorted coldly, "Hmph! What have I done to deserve you sending so many people to capture me?"
As she spoke, she concentrated again, trying to identify the other party's location by sound.
But the man was obviously well prepared and didn't give her the chance at all, choosing to remain silent.
"Ms. Jiraman, our mission is to keep you alive, but the employer didn't guarantee your integrity...
"If you lay down your weapons and follow us now, perhaps you can suffer less physical pain?"
A man on the other side of the alley yelled.
Damn it!
This way, it is impossible to determine the location of the person holding the gun!
Just when Caitlin was at a loss as to what to do, Li Lin, with a pale face, stammered in pain:
"Do you still remember the approximate location of that person just now?"
She nodded subconsciously, "I can only determine a rough range..."
"Yes, can it be accurate to within 3 meters?"
"should……"
"That's enough."
Li Lin forced a smile and said, "Shoot, aim at the range you have determined."
