Free Web NovelChapter 1143: Chapter 1112: Fox Trap (2)
Bang! With a dull thud of bodies colliding, Wang Weili let out a muffled groan and staggered back a few steps before barely managing to steady himself without falling. Meanwhile, using the rebound force of the strike, Yelu Shou grabbed his dagger with both hands and launched an attack on Wang Weili, viciously stabbing the throats of the bodyguards standing on either side of him. Pff! As the dagger was pulled out, jets of blood spurted forth.
The bodyguards’ eyes widened in terror, pressing hard on the gushing blood as if from severed water pipes. They tried to shout loudly, but only cold air rushed through their windpipes and blood bubbles emerged from their mouths; their gazes gradually began to fade...
Wang Weili watched all of this in horror, his entire arm trembling uncontrollably from a pain as if shattered. "Who are you people?"
Xiao Lin walked step by step towards Wang Weili, a smile on his face. "Answer a few questions for me!"
Wang Weili’s wary gaze shifted from Yelu Shou to Xiao Lin. "What if I refuse?"
"Heh heh, that’s not up to you!" Yelu Shou suddenly lunged forward again, striking at Wang Weili, who rolled on the ground to dodge.
However, his misfortune did not end there. With a blur before his eyes, Xiao Lin was already in front of him, a sinister smile on his lips. Snap! Wang Weili’s right knee was bent into a V shape and jutted upward.
The blood seeping from his knee stained his entire right leg red. Xiao Lin, devoid of any pity, grabbed Wang Weili’s head and slammed it hard onto the ground. "Since I dare to enter your place openly, I fear none of your chaotic mess. If you dare to mess with my people, you should know this will be your end!"
Wang Weili opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of bloody muck. "I don’t understand what you’re saying. Who the hell are you?" The punch he took to the abdomen felt as if his internal organs had all been shifted around.
"Alright, let me remind you. What did you do at the dock at four in the afternoon today?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Weili’s brain exploded with a hum. "You’re from Sin City!"
"Heh heh, if you don’t want to suffer, answer my questions truthfully."
"In your dreams!" Wang Weili showed a hint of backbone, gritting his bloody teeth and glaring at Xiao Lin, though he picked the wrong time and place to show it.
"Although I don’t enjoy using violence to solve problems, you’re testing my patience at the peak of my fury. Do you know what you’ve done?" Xiao Lin chuckled to himself. "I was actually going to let you off, but why did you have to provoke me? If you didn’t know, then fine, but how come even your boss didn’t remember!" Talking to himself, Xiao Lin pressed down on Wang Weili’s shoulder bone, dislocating his entire right arm.
Wang Weili let out a dull roar, spraying blood from between his teeth, his blood-red eyes fixed tightly on Xiao Lin, remaining silent.
"Such trouble!" Xiao Lin patted Wang Weili’s injured shoulder as if kindly. "Remember in your next life not to become someone from the Wang Family!"
"What?" Before Wang Weili could even react, a bullet grazed Yelu Shou’s right cheek and shot into Wang Weili’s temple, killing him instantly.
In a moment of shock, Yelu Shou darted toward the bullet’s origin, finding the hall entirely deserted. Xiao Lin took out a cigarette, lit it, and stared dazedly at Wang Weili’s corpse beneath his feet.
At that moment, Wang Weili’s phone rang in his pocket. Xiao Lin frowned, retrieving the phone from his pocket.
"Young Master Xiao!" a slightly hoarse voice came from the other end of the line, sounding unfamiliar, which made Xiao Lin frown even deeper.
"Wang Weibo!"
"People say Xia Family’s future heir is a smart man who knows how to use strategy, but now it seems you are just like this." A low laugh came from the other end of the line, indirectly acknowledging his identity. "Still, thanks for your impulsive and thoughtless action, it allowed me to smoothly relocate the transaction location. We’ll meet again!"
Listening to the beep from within, Xiao Lin threw the phone back onto Wang Weili’s corpse. An impulsive, thoughtless action—was that a way of saying he was a brute?
Yelu Shou returned to Xiao Lin’s side with a sniper rifle in hand. "The target has escaped!"
"Hmm!" Xiao Lin nodded. To stall him for such a short time, Wang Weibo was ruthless enough to trade his own brother’s life. "Wang Weibo seems to know very well what we’re doing!"
Xiao Lin and Yelu Shou walked out of the mansion, confident in their intelligence network. Yelu Shou and Troy were fully assured, and Wang Weibo’s understanding could only be said not to be inferior either. Walking along the long street, waiting for the confirmation of a new location, they believed Wang Weibo would not relocate to a more distant place.
Just as Yelu Shou was about to answer a call from his subordinates, he noticed a faint glint from the top floor of a building opposite. At the same moment, Xiao Lin also sensed this anomaly. It was definitely not a normal light reflection.
Without much hesitation, Yelu Shou let out a low shout and fiercely knocked into Xiao Lin. Just then, the sound of a bullet slicing through the air hit Yelu Shou’s shoulder blade, a blinding red bursting forth before Xiao Lin’s eyes.
"Shou?" Xiao Lin watched the bullet pass through Yelu Shou’s shoulder blade and quickly grabbed him, darting into a nearby alley.
"I’m fine!" Yelu Shou glanced at the gunshot wound on his shoulder, nonchalantly pushing Xiao Lin away, "Their target is you. Since they missed this time, they’ll be back."
All around them were high buildings, making it easy for them to be tracked down. Just as Yelu Shou had pushed Xiao Lin away, another bullet whizzed toward their position. This time Xiao Lin showed no sign of compromise; he swiftly lunged toward Yelu Shou, grabbing him and turning around as a few Silver Needles flew from his fingertips. While they couldn’t stop the bullet, they could slow its speed and alter its trajectory.
"Go!" The bullet merely grazed his arm and lodged in the wall, fortunately only scratching the skin without hitting a bone.
As the opponent fired a second bullet, Xiao Lin roared, leaping up like a leopard, cradling Yelu Shou and seeking cover again while the third bullet landed directly on the ground, blasting up a cloud of cement dust.
The crowd around them paused briefly, then began to flee in panic, some crouching on the ground, trembling in fear. The entire street was immediately plunged into chaos, only seven or eight minutes after they left the mansion.
"Can you still move?" Xiao Lin asked the bleeding Yelu Shou, sheltered beneath an eave. If not for him pushing Xiao Lin aside a moment ago, the injured one would surely have been him.
