I don't know what their purpose was, but it's clear they were after living people.
"Kid, you're asking for it!" Wu Tao sneered, charging forward with his watermelon knife in hand. Zhang Xinwei followed behind, walking slowly and unhurriedly, seemingly having complete confidence in Wu Tao.
I thought to myself, aren't these two a bit too immature?
Without thinking twice, the moment Wu Tao approached, I pulled out a pistol from my waist and fired without hesitation at Wu Tao's forehead.
Bang!
Gunshots rang out all around. Wu Tao's head snapped back, the watermelon knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter, and he collapsed to the ground like a broken set of building blocks.
Zhang Xinwei froze, standing there in astonishment, staring at me, the watermelon knife he was swinging in his hand also stopping in mid-air.
I turned my head and glanced at him; the muzzle of my pistol was pointed at him.
Clang!
The knife in Zhang Xinwei's hand fell to the ground. He dared not go forward again, his face filled with terror. "No, no, no, no, it's a misunderstanding, it's definitely a misunderstanding."
I raised an eyebrow, stepped forward, and said, "Misunderstanding? You all want to kill me, and you still call it a misunderstanding?"
Zhang Xinwei's expression was very unpleasant. "No, young man, we, we didn't mean that at all. I, I meant to..."
"Alright!" I interrupted him. "Stop talking nonsense and tell me honestly, what exactly is your purpose?"
Zhang Xinwei didn't answer my question. "Young man, please don't kill me, okay? My friends are nearby. If you kill me, they'll definitely find out. How about this, you let me go, and I won't tell anyone about you, okay?"
I said, "I don't have time to waste with you. I'll ask you one more time: what exactly is your purpose? Otherwise, believe me, I'll kill you right now!"
Zhang Xinwei quickly said, "I'll talk, I'll talk. Our goal is to arrest people, and then, and then make them work for us."
Arresting people so they can work for you?
I was puzzled.
"Um, I've already said it, can you... can you let me go?"
I thought about it and still couldn't figure out what he meant. However, if what he said was true, and his men were all around, then my gunshot had already been fired, and they would probably have heard it too. In any case, I couldn't stay here any longer.
Bang!
I fired another shot, leaving Zhang Xinwei with multiple bloody holes in his head.
"Let's go," I said to Huang Yiyang and the others, and hurriedly left.
"Is it really okay for you to kill him like this? Why didn't you ask him a few more questions earlier?" Suddenly, Wang Xintong, who had been silent until now, spoke up.
I turned to look at her in surprise and found that her expression was completely different from before. She had been scared before, but now her face was frighteningly calm.
Huang Yiyang was also surprised when he saw it and asked me, "Brother Lu, Xintong, she..."
I raised my hand to stop Huang Yiyang from continuing, and looking at the transformed Wang Xintong, I asked, "Who are you?"
I know that Wang Xintong has changed her personality at this moment. According to the case of multiple personality disorder, Wang Xintong is no longer Wang Xintong at this moment.
Wang Xintong looked at me and said, "My name is Chu Yu."
“Chu…” Huang Yiyang stared wide-eyed, incredulous.
I asked, "Did you come out because you heard the gunshot?"
“That’s right,” Wang Xintong said.
"So you heard my conversation with Zhang Xinwei just now?"
"Um."
“You seem to understand exactly what he meant,” I said.
Wang Xintong, no, I should say Chu Yu, stared at me expressionlessly and said, "You're quite clever; you actually managed to see that."
I asked, "What did you figure out?"
Chu Yu said, "Zhang Xinwei just said that their goal is to arrest people and then make them work for them. What are your thoughts on that?"
I thought about it for a moment and said, "I don't think that's possible. Why would someone who's been arrested listen to them?"
Chu Yu nodded. "Yes, logically speaking, that's impossible. But what if they have the ability to control others? What if they have the ability to make others obey them? What if they have the ability to make people unable to resist?"
I frowned. "This is a bit too fantastical."
Chu Yu looked at me with the exact same expression as Zhou Liang, as if he were looking at an idiot.
“Mortals,” Chu Yu suddenly sighed. “Actually, there are many ways to control a person. For example, if you capture me and threaten Huang Yiyang, Huang Yiyang will definitely obey you unconditionally. There are many other ways, such as a remote-controlled bomb. Put a small bomb in your neck, and if you disobey, it will blow you up. Do you want me to say anything else?”
I shook my head. "No need, I understand."
If what Chu Yu said is true, then all of this is probably a bit incomprehensible.
If their people catch up, we'll probably be in trouble.
I glanced at Huang Yiyang, who was already shocked by Chu Yu, and then said to Chu Yu, "Your name is Chu Yu, right? Now I'm going to give you a task. You take Huang Yiyang and the others and leave here immediately. I estimate that their forces will definitely catch up with you, which will be too dangerous for you. If I were alone, I might be able to escape."
Chu Yu looked puzzled. "But you should know that if I were here, your chances of survival would be greatly increased."
I gave a wry smile. "Of course I know, but just like that, you're a burden to me."
Chu Yu pondered for a few seconds and nodded, "Yes, you're right. We are indeed too much of a burden to you. Your survival skills are stronger than ours. If you leave on your own, your chances of survival are indeed quite high."
