Before the explosion, in two rooms on the third floor of the hotel, six or seven diners dressed in different ways were sitting. In one of the rooms, the man in the lead raised his wrist and stared intently at the ticking of his watch. This man was Deng Zhihong, the leader of the action team responsible for eliminating Luo Zidong.
The others also looked at him, and saw him nod slightly. Immediately afterward, a series of violent explosions came from downstairs. The walls shook, tables and chairs overturned, and plates and glasses were scattered all over the floor.
However, the team members were prepared. They steadied themselves and waited for the shaking to stop. Deng Zhihong, gun in hand, rushed out of the room first, followed closely by the other team members who rushed down the stairs.
The second floor was now a complete mess, and there wasn't a single person standing in the entire hallway.
The team leader, Deng Zhihong, was a top-notch demolition expert in the Shanghai intelligence department. He was responsible for the bombing of the Fukuoka warehouse.
He had calculated the amount of explosives beforehand and distributed them in various hidden corners on the second floor to ensure that every corner of the entire second floor would be affected by the blast wave at the same time, maximizing the damage to the enemy and rendering them unable to resist. So far, the effect has been even better than expected.
"Find Luo Zidong, finish him off, and be quick!"
With a wave of his hand, Deng Zhihong's fourteen team members immediately opened fire in all directions. Their movements were extremely fast, and the Colt pistols with silencers in their hands kept making muffled "thud" sounds, quickly slaughtering everyone in the corridor.
Deng Zhihong rushed to the largest private room immediately. The door frame was empty, and the door panel was nowhere to be seen. The room had been completely destroyed, with all the glass in the windows shattered. The room was in a mess, and two corpses lay diagonally at the door. The amount of explosives in the room was sufficient, and the explosion was very powerful. The two people had died on the spot.
Deng Zhihong stepped forward to identify the person, but none of them were Luo Zidong, the target. Startled, he quickly turned around to check and found a well-dressed man lying behind him by the door, unlike the others. He quickly bent down and turned the man over, and sure enough, it was Luo Zidong.
Luo Zidong's eyes were tightly closed, blood was flowing from his seven orifices, and his life was unknown. Deng Zhihong had no interest in checking, and simply raised his hand and fired a shot, the bullet piercing Luo Zidong's forehead, before turning around to look at the crowd.
"withdraw!"
At this moment, the diners, still shaken from the explosion, also came to their senses and rushed out of their rooms towards the restaurant's entrance. In the chaos, many people were pushed and trampled on in the crowd. Screams, shouts, and even a woman's cries mingled together, and the entire building suddenly became noisy.
The sudden change startled Yan Xing and the others who had been waiting downstairs. The surroundings were calm, but a violent explosion came from inside the restaurant. The windows of the entire second floor were shattered by the powerful shockwave, and the air blast made a deafening sound, knocking everyone to the ground. They didn't know what had happened!
Yan Xing was the first to react. He looked up and was terrified. Luo Zidong and all his men were on the second floor. Needless to say, the explosion was aimed at Luo Zidong. But with such a powerful explosion, the chances of these people surviving were slim.
He was extremely anxious and quickly called on everyone around him to stand up. He rushed into the restaurant first, but at that moment, the diners on the first floor were also frightened and rushed out, crowding the entrance. Yan Xing and the others couldn't get in.
After finally squeezing into the hall, the diners upstairs also rushed down the stairs, stumbling and screaming as they jostled for position.
Yan Xing no longer hesitated, shoved aside the diners in front of him, and rushed up the stairs, followed by his bodyguards.
However, in his panic, he did not notice that these diners, who were rushing in without thinking, had simultaneously drawn their guns and launched a sudden attack almost touching his body as they passed by them.
"Pfft...pfft..."
A burst of gunfire, all hitting vital areas in the chest and abdomen, caused the bodyguards, who had no time to react, to tremble violently, spurt blood, and collapse limply to the ground.
Yan Xing was the first person to be taken down by Deng Zhihong. He was shot several times in the chest, fell headfirst, and tumbled down the stairs. The fight ended as soon as the two sides made contact.
The team members put away their guns, continued to pretend to be panicked diners, rushed out of the restaurant, and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Just moments before the explosion, several blocks away, a car was parked on the side of the road with its hood up, and the driver was anxiously leaning over the engine, using a wrench to troubleshoot the problem.
In the back seat of the car sat Wan Mulin, a powerful figure in the Green Gang, looking impatient. He reached for his pocket watch, checked the time, rolled down the window, and said to Chai Liang, who had been standing outside the car urging the repairman to finish the job, "A-Si, why isn't it fixed yet? How much longer?"
When Chai Liang saw Wan Mulin urging him, he quickly replied, "Uncle Wan, please don't worry, it's just a minor problem and it will be fixed soon. Please wait a little longer."
Wan Mulin lost his patience and simply pushed open the car door to get out. However, due to his obesity, getting in and out of the car was quite difficult. Chai Liang quickly stepped forward to help him out.
Wan Mulin walked a few steps to the front of the car, saw the driver was busy repairing it and figured it wouldn't be fixed anytime soon, so he waved his hand and said, "Alright, don't bother, we're almost there, let's find a rickshaw and get there first."
