The factory manager, Wang Dongyang, felt despair creeping into his heart like a creeper vine. He did not expect to be seen through. The only surprise was that he did not understand why the young man in front of him knew how to use a gun.
A moment later, he suddenly retreated and tried to use this opportunity to disarm the gun. However, Ren Xiaosu would not give him the chance to do so. He slammed into Wang Dongyang like a cannonball, breaking his ribs and sending his gun flying out of his hand!
Having lost his last resort, Wang Dongyang lay on the ground coughing up blood and said, "Let me go, and I'll tell you where my assets are hidden."
"Tell me first, and I'll let you go," Ren Xiaosu said calmly.
"Do you think I'm stupid?" In fact, Wang Dongyang knew his efforts were futile. How could this young man possibly let him go? If he did, would there still be a place for him to hide in the vicinity of Stronghold 113? Moreover, when Wang Dongyang first heard of Ren Xiaosu, Ren Xiaosu also had a nickname … Ren Xiaosu the Ruthless.
"Your lungs have been punctured by your broken ribs, so it's too late for you to return to town now." Ren Xiaosu laughed. He also wanted to get his hands on Wang Dongyang's assets, but it was obvious that Wang Dongyang would not tell him where they were.
Ren Xiaosu was no longer conflicted. He did not know when the battle between the private army and the wolves would end. If this dragged on, it would not end well for him no matter which side suddenly came to this factory.
The sound of a sharp weapon slicing through leather rang out. Ren Xiaosu used the bone knife to imitate the wolf's claw marks on Wang Dongyang's chest and made a wound. Only when he was sure Wang Dongyang was not showing any signs of life did he pick up the pistol and walk out. He also took the two magazines Wang Dongyang was carrying with him.
There were a total of 36 bullets.
When Ren Xiaosu left, there was no one left alive in the entire factory. Ren Xiaosu looked back at the Shuraba. Behind him was the dark night, and this was the world he was in.
…
"Brother, are you okay?" Yan Liuyuan said impatiently when he saw Ren Xiaosu lift the curtain and come in. He circled around Ren Xiaosu and was relieved to find that there was no blood.
"I'm fine." Ren Xiaosu tied the bone saber back to his leg and asked, "Did anything happen in town while I was gone? Have the private troops returned yet?"
"Some of them came back with some injured people, as well as the corpses of their teammates and wild wolves. I heard that the rest of them went back to the factory," Yan Liuyuan said.
Ren Xiaosu thought that this was probably normal. No matter how powerful the wild wolves were, it was impossible for them to win when faced with a private army that was several times their size, not to mention that the private army was armed.
"How many dead wolves did they bring back?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"More than 30 of them." Yan Liuyuan said, "Bro, those wild wolves are way too big!"
When Yan Liuyuan asked Ren Xiaosu how big the wolves were, Ren Xiaosu always described them as very big. As for exactly how big they were, Yan Liuyuan only found out today.
Ren Xiaosu frowned. He was glad that he did not waste too much time at the factory. Otherwise, he might have bumped into the private troops rushing to the factory. From the looks of it, the wolves had retreated after realizing that their sneak attack would not succeed. As such, the private troops did not waste too much time.
It was no wonder there were no more gunshots in the wilderness when he took a detour back here.
However, the wolves were getting stronger and smarter. If he let them go this time, who knew what the people in town would have to face next time?
Suddenly, a commotion came from outside. Ren Xiaosu lifted the curtain and looked outside. It turned out that a squad of 10 people from the private army had rushed back in an off-road vehicle ahead of time.
An officer in the vehicle said, "Anyone who reports leaving town tonight will be handsomely rewarded!"
Ren Xiaosu was startled because he knew they were obviously looking for him!
The other party must have already gone to the factory. Ren Xiaosu believed that normal people would not be able to discover the flaw in Wang Dongyang's wound. However, there was still a very crucial problem that had not been resolved: Wang Dongyang's gun was missing!
If someone were to work backwards based on this flaw, it would be very easy to discover that something was amiss. This was something that Ren Xiaosu could not avoid.
"Bro." Yan Liuyuan looked worriedly at Ren Xiaosu.
"It's fine." Ren Xiaosu pushed Yan Liuyuan's head back into the car.
Ren Xiaosu carefully recalled that he did not take the main road when he left town. He had the impression that no one knew he had gone out, except for Yan Liuyuan.
The soldiers were standing guard at the entrance of town. Not long after, all of the private troops returned. The townspeople watched on as the private troops started rummaging through every house.
They were … looking for that gun.
Suddenly, a familiar voice shouted, "I know who went out in the middle of the night."
Ren Xiaosu turned around and saw the clinic's doctor, Yu Tong, looking at him with a smile. Yu Tong was standing very far away, mainly because he was afraid Ren Xiaosu would kill him.
The private army officer slowly walked over. "Who is it?"
"It's him, Ren Xiaosu. I saw him leave town with my own eyes," Yu Tong said with a smug smile.
Ren Xiaosu did not quibble. He admitted, "At that time, our toilet was occupied by He Zong, so I had no choice but to take a dump outside."
"Who is He Zong? Is this true?" the officer asked loudly.
He Zong, who was dumbfounded, did not know how he had been implicated. He said weakly, "I did have diarrhea tonight. Many people can testify to that."
The officer turned to look at Ren Xiaosu and sneered, "Search the shack."
With that, his subordinates were about to rush into the shack when Wang Fugui suddenly jumped out and said, "Wait, he's someone that an important person in the stronghold has specifically asked to take care of. You can't treat him like this."
The officer was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"In the afternoon, Boss Luo specifically asked someone to take care of Luo Lan from the stronghold. Ren Xiaosu doesn't even know about this! As for why he's being taken care of, you can ask Boss Luo yourself. It's not convenient for us to tell you, "Wang Fugui quickly explained.
"Boss Luo?" The officer was a little surprised. Everyone could tell that he obviously knew the boss named Luo Lan. Furthermore, Luo Lan seemed to be a big shot in the stronghold.
The officer thought for a moment and said, "It won't do even if he's Boss Luo's man. This matter is very serious, so I'll personally apologize to Boss Luo tonight."
With that, his subordinates rushed straight into Ren Xiaosu's shack and started rummaging through it. Two of them even started searching Ren Xiaosu's body.
But after two minutes, all of the soldiers shook their heads as they could not find anything.
The officer looked at Ren Xiaosu and said, "Take me to the place where you defecated."
Ren Xiaosu frowned as he walked out of town. He did not expect this officer to be so meticulous with his work! Behind him, Yan Liuyuan was about to rush up to him when Ren Xiaosu turned around and shouted, "Get lost!"
Yan Liuyuan's eyes reddened.
Ren Xiaosu led the officer and soldiers to the outskirts of town. He pointed to a pile of feces and said, "Here, it's fresh. It's definitely fresh."
The officer took a look at it and then ordered them to continue searching the other shacks. He no longer cared about Ren Xiaosu.
Ren Xiaosu finally heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had made sufficient preparations. Before he left, he had observed his surroundings and thought of a reason when he returned. Not only did he bury his gun outside, but he also had the last piece of evidence to back up his lie … by defecating on the spot.
He turned his gaze to Yu Tong, who had been following behind him. When Yu Tong saw the fierce look in Ren Xiaosu's eyes, he wet his pants.
