The Browning micro pistol made a very low, muffled sound when fired, and because it was fired in a confined space, the noise was minimal.
Immediately afterward, the janitor rushed forward and kicked the side door behind the two men. With a bang, the door was kicked open, and the janitor rushed in, taking a quick step to stand in front of a thin old man sitting behind a desk.
"you…"
The old man had no time to react. He stared at the man opposite him in disbelief, and just as he uttered a surprised question, he heard a muffled thud, felt a jolt in his chest, and was in excruciating pain. He had been shot in the chest, a vital spot. His body went limp, and he slumped back in his seat like a deflated balloon.
The janitor didn't bother to check the effectiveness of the shot. He was very confident in his marksmanship; at such close range, hitting the heart meant the chances of survival were practically zero.
He immediately withdrew, slipped out of the office, returned to the reception room, took a few steps to the door, and listened to the sounds outside.
Because he acted so quickly, from entering the room to killing the three targets to eliminating them, it only took a few seconds. So at this moment, the two young men behind him were not completely dead yet. They were just slumped on the sofa, twitching incessantly, and it felt as if their life force was rapidly draining from them.
The cleaning worker glanced at them but ignored them and didn't fire any more shots. He quickly confirmed that no one was walking in the hallway outside, then opened the door, slipped out, and closed the door behind him.
He had already put away the miniature pistol in his hand. He picked up the broom by the door and strode towards the stairwell.
Just then, Yu Pu came up the stairs. When the cleaning worker saw Yu Pu, he slowed down and walked down the stairs in a relaxed manner.
Yu Pu looked up at the handyman, then glanced at the broom in his hand, but didn't pay any attention. The two passed each other as one went up and the other went down.
Yu Pu went up the stairs, looked around, and walked towards the office area on the left. At this moment, the cleaning worker on the stairs glanced at Yu Pu, a cold smile appeared on his lips, and then he quickly went down the stairs.
Yu Pu arrived at the police station's office, knocked on the door, and entered. He was greeted by an officer from the police station, but when the officer heard Yu Pu's purpose, he looked at him with surprise and said in confusion, "We did receive orders to recruit trainees for your social affairs department, but we haven't started preparing yet, and we haven't notified your social affairs department's special agent training class at all. Instructor Yu, did you hear me wrong?"
Yu Pu was also surprised when he heard this. He had indeed received a call from someone claiming to be from the city hall police station. However, in this era, it was impossible for the recipient to verify the other party's phone number on a landline.
Moreover, the other party's mention of recruiting students coincided with Juchuan Academy's recent application to expand the academy, so Yu Pu believed it without a doubt and quickly came to the city hall to discuss the work. However, to his surprise, the police officers denied the matter.
Yu Pu asked doubtfully, "You should double-check that I did receive your call, otherwise I wouldn't have made this trip for nothing."
The officer had no choice but to ask, "Instructor Yu, when did you receive the call?"
"One hour ago!"
The officer relaxed and said with a smile, "Instructor Yu, I've been on duty all morning. I haven't left my post for an hour. This call really wasn't made by our department. Why don't you double-check to see if someone is playing a joke on you?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Pu felt a little nervous, and a bad premonition rose in his heart. Too many things had happened in the past few days, and they were all bad things, which made him feel uneasy.
Things had finally calmed down these past two days, and he had just started to relax when someone called him again, trying to lure him to the city hall. Could there be some kind of conspiracy involved?
Yu Pu felt a sense of unease and was unwilling to linger any longer. He forced a smile, said goodbye, and left the office. He turned and walked quickly toward the stairs, determined to leave as soon as possible.
Just then, several screams suddenly came from the office area across the street, followed by a man dressed as a clerk rushing out of an office and running quickly towards the stairs.
As he ran, he shouted urgently, "There are Chongqing elements! There are Chongqing elements! Vice Minister Li has been assassinated!"
