44 -44: Bald Qiang Cries and Begs for Mercy
“Brothers, if we can make it back alive today, I’ll treat everyone to a drink, let’s head out…” Shi Jian shouted and then made his way downstairs.
Twelve men, driving three cars, hurriedly headed towards Xihuan.
Shi Jian was hoping that Xiang Yu would suddenly appear, but as they approached the West Third Ring, Xiang Yu still hadn’t shown up.
By then, night had fallen completely; the factory’s surroundings were even more sinister and terrifying being far from the city.
Around the factory, eight parked cars with headlights blazing illuminated it from eight different directions.
Inside the factory, lights were on, a stark contrast to the enveloping darkness.
Shi Jian and his men drove their three vehicles directly to the vacant lot on the outskirts of the factory but didn’t get out, instead quietly sitting in the cars.
Qian Meiduo’s people didn’t show up either; the scene was eerily quiet, as if everyone was waiting for something.
“Nobody move, wait for my command,” Shi Jian ordered from the car, hand on his gun, carefully surveying the surroundings.
Just then, a gunshot rang out suddenly from outside, like a signal.
Many men descended from the eight cars at once, guns in hand, and opened fire on Shi Jian and his team without a word.
“Go, leave now,” Shi Jian shouted, firing his pistol toward the outside.
All around were people on the move; Shi Jian didn’t know whom to target and fired his gun aimlessly.
At the same time, his brothers behind him also began to shoot.
The four drivers were already prepared, so when they heard Shi Jian’s command, they floored the gas pedal and began to retrace their route.
“Damn these bastards, Xiang Yu, you son of a bitch,” Shi Jian cursed.
“Who the hell fired first just now?” At that moment, Bald Wang Qiang suddenly stepped forward and shouted.
He wanted to lure Xiang Yu into the open before dealing with the others.
He was genuinely concerned his brothers might accidentally kill Xiang Yu.
“Go after them quick; remember, I want Xiang Yu alive, the rest can be taken care of,” Wang Qiang ordered loudly.
Then, seven cars sped off in pursuit of Shi Jian’s retreating vehicles.
“These bastards, can’t even handle this simple task,” Wang Qiang fumed as he walked back into the factory.
“Strong, don’t worry.
Those drivers are all skilled; they won’t get away,” Qian Meiduo confidently said as he leisurely sat in a chair, waiting for the outcome.
“Xiang Yu, that bastard, I must skin him today,” Wang Qiang ground his teeth in anger.
He couldn’t believe that Xiang Yu hadn’t gotten out of the car.
To make matters worse, his own men had made a mistake by firing too soon, triggering the attack earlier than planned.
“Oh, are you talking about me?” Just then, Xiang Yu suddenly jumped down from a piece of equipment to the second floor, then slowly walked down.
Wang Qiang, seeing Xiang Yu descending, didn’t react at first.
What was going on?
Hadn’t they left in their cars earlier?
Could it be that he had already taken out his own men and returned so quickly?
That was impossibly fast, simply inconceivable.
The only explanation was that Xiang Yu had been hiding there all along.
As Wang Qiang came to his senses and reached for his gun, Xiang Yu suddenly shot him in the left arm, causing the pistol to fall to the ground.
“You are Xiang Yu?” At that moment, Qian Meiduo suddenly picked up the gun from the ground, looked at Xiang Yu with a sneer.
“You’re quite something, kid.
Been waiting here all afternoon, haven’t you?”
“I had a nice nap right here.
If it weren’t for your people outside waking me up, I might’ve slept until tomorrow morning,” Xiang Yu said, yawning abruptly.
Just then, Qian Meiduo suddenly raised his gun and aimed at Xiang Yu.
He was no kind-hearted man; given the chance, he would deal a fatal blow to his opponent.
“Hmph!
It’s your own fault for being too arrogant, Xiang Yu,” Qian Meiduo said confidently in his marksmanship, which was quick on the draw and considered above average among the bosses.
But just as Qian Meiduo was about to pull the trigger, shots rang out from the opposite side.
A bullet accurately entered Qian Meiduo’s gun barrel and, with a ‘click,’ broke Qian Meiduo’s finger.
Qian Meiduo let out a scream of agony and dropped the handgun.
“Big Brother!” Wang Qiang, ignoring the pain in his arm, rushed over to support Qian Meiduo.
“Don’t try any tricks in front of me; you’re not faster than me,” Xiang Yu said as he walked over to Qian Meiduo, sat down in the chair, and, without hesitation, shot Wang Qiang in the leg.
Wang Qiang cried out in pain and fell to one knee.
“Xiang Yu, if you have the guts, kill me!” Wang Qiang yelled.
“No need to rush; I’ll kill you in a moment,” Xiang Yu said mercilessly as he fired another shot into Wang Qiang’s right leg.
Losing his balance, Wang Qiang ‘thudded’ to his knees before Xiang Yu.
“Xiang Yu, you bastard, you’re a bastard…” Wang Qiang cried out and suddenly broke into tears, “I beg you, please, spare me; I won’t dare again, please spare me…” Faced with death, Wang Qiang suddenly lost his sanity.
“Regretting now, are you?
Don’t you think it’s a bit late?” Xiang Yu said, casually playing with the gun.
At that moment, he felt a chill down his back as if he was being watched, and his experience told him this was the case.
Without a second thought, Xiang Yu performed a roll forward.
This move quite startled Qian Meiduo.
That kid must have gone crazy, unexpectedly tumbling forward.
At the same time, gunfire erupted around him.
The bullets landed near Xiang Yu.
Listening to the shots, there should be three people, three people occupying different positions on the second floor, leaving Xiang Yu nowhere to dodge.
Xiang Yu did a forward roll and kept his body moving, trying to avoid getting shot in vital areas.
But after a few breaths, he felt the three gunmen above were not professionals; at best, they only knew how to shoot.
This was a false alarm indeed; had there been three experts above, he might have actually been injured today.
Still, this didn’t quite make sense.
If the enemies had arranged for three gunmen earlier, why would they choose such poor shooters?
Could there be someone else involved?
Seeing the three men’s shooting was not accurate, Xiang Yu suddenly stood up, shot in three directions without looking, and then came the sounds of three bodies hitting the ground.
After taking down the three men, Xiang Yu remained on guard.
Then he suddenly heard the sound of a car starting outside.
Without thinking, he rushed out and fired several shots at the car.
But by that time, the car had already started moving away.
He only caught a glimpse of a figure, slender with a pair of glasses.
Xiang Yu thought of the person he had met during the day, not realizing this man was Zhuge Tian.
Xiang Yu walked back to the center of the factory and, without a word, shot Qian Meiduo in the leg.
“Don’t kill me, I have money, I can give you money, as long as you don’t kill me.
I’ll do anything, I can tell you anything you want to know,” Qian Meiduo begged pitifully as he suddenly knelt to the ground.
What he needed to do now was buy time, until his brothers returned…
