But at that moment, Deng Yuankai's eyes suddenly turned to Pei Tai's back, his expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in a terrified whisper, "Director, you?"
Pei Tai panicked and involuntarily looked back. He had come to confront Deng Yuankai behind Cui Guangqi's back, but he never expected that Cui Guangqi would find him here.
But he quickly realized it was a trap; Deng Yuankai was going to harm him!
Unfortunately, he was too late; Deng Yuankai only needed a brief moment of his distraction.
The instant he turned his head, Deng Yuankai flipped his hands, his right hand touching his left wrist, and a steel wire flashed with a ghostly light. At the same time, he lunged forward, wrapping the steel wire around Pei Tai's neck at an extremely fast speed.
Pei Tai was shocked. He knew that Deng Yuankai had this method of defeating enemies, but due to his carelessness, he still fell into Deng Yuankai's trap. This was to kill him to silence him!
He instinctively tried to pull the wire wrapped around his neck, but it was too late. The wire was already tightly wrapped around his neck, digging deep into his muscles, and a sharp pain shot through his neck.
Pei Tai tried to call for help, but his trachea and throat were tightly constricted, and he couldn't make a sound. He felt like the blood in his head was about to explode. After all, he was a trained special agent, and he still retained a sense of clarity in the critical moment. He simply gave up on protecting his neck, took a deep breath, and reached for his waist with his right hand, preparing to draw his gun to fight back. However, the strength in his hand was getting weaker and weaker. He barely touched the pistol, but he was too weak to pull it out.
Deng Yuankai was tall and strong, and a skilled fighter. His killing move had never failed him, so he naturally knew how to kill someone quickly. He forcefully dragged Pei Tai's body down, pressed his right knee against the back of Pei Tai's neck, and with a struggle of his arms, the steel wire around Pei Tai's neck tightened more and more. His consciousness blurred in a very short time, and he quickly lost the ability to resist.
Time passed slowly, and Deng Yuankai watched as Pei Tai's body gradually went limp, until his hands finally hung limply to one side.
After a long while, Deng Yuankai finally released his hands and pulled his knees back.
Pei Tai's body fell to the ground at an angle like a lump of dough, and he was no longer breathing.
"Xiao Tai, I'm sorry!"
Deng Yuankai stood there, bewildered and listless, muttering to himself that from the moment he made his move, he had already decided that there was no way out today and he could only fight to the death.
Since Cui Guangqi had to be killed, Pei Tai couldn't leave any survivors. Otherwise, even if the assassination of Cui Guangqi succeeded, Pei Tai would kill him to avenge Cui Guangqi. Once a fight broke out and others were alerted, he would be unable to escape Shanghai.
Pei Tai was also a skilled fighter, no less so than himself, and even younger. If he didn't go all out and let his guard down even slightly, he would be the one to die. But he couldn't die; he still had to go home and reunite with his family!
He slowly squatted down, looking into Pei Tai's wide-open eyes, feeling an overwhelming sense of guilt. However, their positions were different, and in the end, they could only kill each other. How could he have wanted to do this, to kill his own student and brother with his own hands!
"Let's be brothers again in the next life!"
A tear rolled down Deng Yuankai's cheek as he placed his hand on Pei Tai's face and gently closed his eyes.
We can't delay any longer. Pei Tai was Cui Guangqi's trusted confidant, and now that he's dead, Cui Guangqi will become suspicious if he doesn't see Pei Tai for a long time. I must seize the opportunity to assassinate this traitor!
He never expected Pei Tai to confront him directly, forcing him to kill to silence him. He has no time to plan or prepare, so he has to act hastily.
Deng Yuankai immediately lifted Pei Tai's body and placed him on the sofa, then covered him with the coat on the clothes rack, so that if anyone came in, they would think Pei Tai was sleeping on the sofa.
He quickly straightened his clothes, tidied his slightly disheveled hair, and carefully checked the wire in his wrist. This was his trump card; he was going to use this weapon to take the life of the traitor Cui Guangqi today, because it wouldn't make too much noise and would make it easier for him to escape the scene after succeeding.
However, he knew that Cui Guangqi was more skilled than him, and if he failed to subdue his opponent by surprise, he would have to resort to firearms.
He then took out the pistol from his waist, removed the magazine, carefully checked the bullets inside, then closed the magazine, carefully put it back on his waist, and laid his clothes down to make sure there were no flaws.
I hope everything goes smoothly. If I am forced to use a gun in the end, then regardless of whether the assassination is successful or not, I can only sacrifice myself for my country and die for my country! If it really comes to that, it will be a way for me to wash away the shame of my previous betrayal with my life.
Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared on his lips. He had finally come to this point, and the great fear between life and death was testing him once again.
The difference this time is that if he doesn't take a gamble, he will definitely be the one who dies; he has no choice!
