Owl, who had escaped the abandoned factory, heard the gunshot, frowned, and cursed, "Idiot, didn't they say to strangle the child? They actually used a gun!"
Several gunshots rang out in succession, making Xiao think that the SWAT team had arrived and there was a gunfight inside, so he ran even faster.
He couldn't get Yu Xunteng out of the picture. He'd have to see if there was a chance to save him later. Hopefully, the kid would be smart enough not to confront the other side head-on, so he could at least keep his life and wait for him to save him.
If he unfortunately dies, then all I can do is burn three sticks of incense for him.
"Brother Jiao, he ran this way!" Xiao Liu pointed to the footprints on the ground.
Jiao got on the bicycle and patted the back seat: "Get on."
Xiao Liu jumped into the car, gripping his gun tightly in his hand.
Before leaving the Dragon Kingdom, Xiao Liu had never touched a gun. It wasn't until he arrived at Grandpa Henry's castle that he saw a gun in Grandpa Henry's collection cabinet. This was the first time Xiao Liu had ever seen a real gun.
When Grandpa Henry gave them model cars, the third brother was eager to touch a real gun, but Grandpa Henry refused. However, Grandpa Henry said he could take them to a gun range to experience shooting.
Later, Grandpa Henry did keep his promise and took them to the real gun museum, even bringing Little Seven along.
However, Xiao Qi wasn't interested in guns and was playing with Barbie dolls instead, while her second sister, who was also a girl, was very interested in guns.
Xiao Liu experienced shooting for the first time at the real gun range, but he had a strange feeling that he used guns all the time.
It seems that in that hazy dream, he would put the gun in the bedside cabinet so that he could easily grab it.
“Following me will put you in danger. If you are afraid, it’s not too late. I will put you down.”
"I'm not afraid!"
"Why go back to the past?" Jiao asked curiously.
"I want my money back!" Xiao Liu said seriously. "The money belongs to my grandfather, and I have to get it back!"
“My dad has met your grandpa. He went to the stall looking for you and he was very anxious.”
Xiao Liu pursed her lips and whispered, "I know, Grandpa... cares about me a lot."
"No grandfather doesn't care about his grandson."
“Before, I thought he didn’t care, and I wasn’t very obedient.”
"You must be obedient from now on. I want to listen to Grandpa, but it's too late now. My grandpa is no longer here."
"Brother Jiao, was your grandfather killed by them?"
"Yes, they wanted the dumpling recipe. I don't know what methods they used to get the recipe from my family before the electric scooter battery exploded. Why, even after getting the recipe, would they not let them go and even kill them? I don't understand, why..."
Xiao Liu, sitting in the back seat, patted the corner of the seat in a comforting gesture. Xiao Liu pursed his lips, unsure of what to say.
He remembered his third brother telling him that Yu Xunteng had hired someone to kill his grandfather, but fortunately, the special forces soldiers protecting his grandfather stopped him, otherwise... his grandfather would definitely have been in trouble.
"They originally intended to kill my grandfather, but since they couldn't, they kidnapped me to extort money from him. They should have died long ago! Brother Jiao, we can't let the bad guys get away with it, otherwise they'll keep harming one person after another and never learn their lesson!"
"I will never let him get away with this!"
"Brother Jiao, are you a good shot?"
"good."
"Did you practice this on purpose?"
“After being adopted by my parents, I often practiced shooting. When they saw that I liked it, they gave me a real gun. However, the bullets were limited, and I used too many to kill that person just now.”
"Don't you ever vomit after you kill someone?"
“I overcame my fear. I started practicing from the day I ate the dumplings I bought from the supermarket. I went to help out at my friend’s fish stall and cleaned fish every day. At first, I wasn’t used to it, but now I’m not afraid.”
Xiao Liu silently remembered: to become stronger, practice shooting more! Kill more fish!
...
The man in front of the car cursed, "Idiot! He has the keys!"
Unable to board the bus, he had no choice but to walk. He called his men and asked them to pick him up at the station a kilometer away.
But he never imagined that one kilometer would be a distance he could never reach.
...
"Brother Jiao, it seems we can't catch up."
“It doesn’t matter. As long as he goes down this road, he can’t escape.”
"Why?"
Jiao took out his phone, turned on the screen, and a map appeared. There was a green line on the map, and six red dots on the green line.
Clicking the first red dot reveals a camera, but there is no one within its field of view.
The horn tapped several red dots in succession, until the second-to-last red dot. A person appeared on the screen, and the horn pointed at the person and asked, "Is this the person?"
“It’s him!” Xiao Liu recognized Xiao at a glance.
"Could they have mistaken someone for someone else?"
“I’m sure I didn’t mistake them. After I recognized them, they took off their hoods, and I remembered their faces!”
He tried hard to remember the faces so that if he could escape or someone came to his rescue, he could tell the police what the bad guys looked like.
"Okay, I'm glad I remembered correctly."
The corner took out a small box that looked like a radio, extended the antenna, and pressed a button.
"Bang!" An explosion was heard in the distance.
"Is it a long-range bomb?" Xiao Liu asked.
"Yes, my dad works in a mine and usually runs a street stall. He's good at blasting, and I learned some of his skills."
"Amazing!" Xiao Liu gave a thumbs up. His palms were sweaty as he held the gun. He had been extremely nervous, but now he was calm.
"Brother Jiao, how did you know they would take this route?"
"I don't know. I was just taking a gamble. I planted bombs on two roads. Luckily, there aren't many people in the mining area usually. If there were other people around, I wouldn't have dared to press them. I didn't want to hurt any innocent people."
"When did you start this plan?"
"After eating dumplings, I started checking the supplier at the supermarket because he's from China, so it's actually quite easy to find him."
"How did you know they would come to the mine?"
“I know they are greedy people. To deal with greedy people, you just need to cast a bait to lure them over. I just spread the word that the mine owner here is in a hurry to sell his mines because he is in debt, and then spread the word elsewhere that diamonds have been suspected to have been discovered in the mines here.”
"Oh...this sounds so complicated and difficult."
“It is difficult, but…” Jiao’s gaze deepened: “A person’s belief can overcome everything. As long as you have a belief and something you want to do, it seems that there is nothing difficult in this world. Or perhaps… it is my family in heaven who is helping me, which is why everything went smoothly.”
They had arrived at the site of the explosion and saw Owl lying unconscious on the ground.
Upon closer inspection, they discovered that he was still alive.
"My phone is broken." Xiao Liu picked up Xiao's phone, looking distressed. "He cheated my grandfather out of 100 million US dollars. I don't know where he borrowed so much money to save me. I must get it back!"
“I know there’s a temporary house nearby where miners’ family members who live far away can stay temporarily. The mine has been busy lately and no relatives have come to visit, so it’s empty now. We’ll take him there.”
Xiao Liu's eyes lit up: "If he ties me up, I'll tie him up too! If he doesn't return the money to my grandpa, I'll whip him with a belt!"
“Just a little bit of teasing. If he doesn’t listen, I’ll cut his flesh with a dull knife,” Jiao Youyou said.
Xiao Liu was not afraid at all; instead, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed excitedly, "Great idea! Heh heh, cut a thousand times!"
"To be torn to pieces?"
“Yes!” Xiao Liu nodded vigorously.
Jiao laughed: "I think I'm crazy, but I didn't expect to meet someone even crazier than me today."
"Brother Jiao, we're kindred spirits! Hurry and help me, he's too heavy, I can't move him!"
The horn tied the owl with a rope and rode forward on a bicycle, while the owl was dragged along.
