"You don't have to think about knocking me out instead of killing me." The old man stroked the surface of the ring as if he was stroking a woman's skin. He added coldly, "It only needs to be pressed lightly to have the same effect."
In the shadow of the sports coat, Xu Le narrowed his eyes. When he left, he did see a silver bear pendant next to the door. At that time, he even had the impulse to put the bunch of keys in his pocket.
His steady and strong index finger pressed the mechanical trigger a little deeper. Just a little more and it would be fired. He asked, "And then?"
"And then? I just want to tell you stupid young people who don't know how vast the universe is. We old people have gone through a lot of bloodshed to get this little bit of status, and you want to take it away so easily? "
Smoke spread around Jin Qiude's face. The old wrinkles on his face were angry and mocking. "Bait? Kill me! Young man, do you know who I am? I've killed more people than you've ever seen. Do you think I dare to wait for you to kill me without any preparation and just bring a few soldiers with me? "
"Be more direct," said Xu Le.
Jin Qiude's face was a mixture of gloominess and excitement. His empty left hand rubbed the plump buttocks of the woman beside him, completely ignoring that his loyal and stupid subordinate was trembling in fear.
"A normal person would probably only ask you to leave at this time." The old man laughed hoarsely and said, "But even I don't think I'm normal. I don't want to be the vice president of the Federation government in the future and have to worry about being assassinated by you all the time."
"So, I want you to die."
…
…
Xu Le had always thought that there was only one kind of enemy in the world that was the most difficult to deal with, and that was the madman, such as the great teacher in the White Courtyard of the Empire. At this time, he saw another old man who was just as crazy, and this old man was even more cruel and cold.
Cold sweat gradually seeped into the back of his clothes. He was nervous at first, but then he became calmer. He, who had the thickest nerves in the universe, had this special ability. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man who was close to him. He quickly calculated how likely it was to knock him out before he could activate the device and how likely it was to completely destroy the nervous system in his right hand with a bullet.
Charter's computer was also silently calculating. It was much faster than him and gave back a few extremely accurate values. The values were quite high. If placed on the battlefield, it would be enough to take a risk.
However, Xu Le did not move. He was not gambling with his own life, but with the life of the girl who had just tidied his collar.
Amidst the suffocating atmosphere, the Charter computer once again sent out a warning to his brain. The silent alarm system of Parliament Hill had already rung, and the powerful organizations of the government had begun to gather. According to the calculations, he had less than five minutes left.
Xu Le took a deep breath. His slightly squinted eyes suddenly brightened. The shadow under the brim of his hat instantly disappeared, and the scorching power behind his waist violently spread throughout his body.
However, just as he was about to take the risk and make a move, two gorgeous saber lights suddenly flashed by the bedside!
The first saber cut off the upper half of Jin Qiude's hand that was coldly extended in the air. The second saber simply stabbed into his shriveled ribs. Pfft!
Five fingers were neatly severed like a fence that had been sliced by a bullet. Blood gushed out from the wound. The sudden intense pain caused Jin Qiude's expression to change drastically. However, the miserable cry that was about to leave his mouth was abruptly cut off by the saber that had stabbed deep into his ribs, slicing open his lungs and piercing through his heart.
The sharp saber accurately and coldly pierced through his heart membrane, causing blood to splatter from the inside of the old man's body into his lungs. An instinctive physiological reaction caused him to start coughing violently. There was no way for him to let out a miserable cry.
Xu Le's attention was completely focused on the five severed fingers flying in the air. His feelings of despair and frustration caused his reaction to slow down for a moment. He could only watch as a white and clean hand reached over and lightly grasped the severed finger with a ring on it.
…
…
The woman in her thirties held the severed finger in one hand and a delicate saber in the other. No one would have thought that this delicate saber would be able to release the two cold and gorgeous saber lights. Just as no one would have thought that this gorgeous and vulgar woman, who was trembling in fear a moment ago as Jin Qiude coldly rubbed her buttocks, would do such a thing in the next moment.
This woman seemed to believe in Xu Le's ability to control his emotions. She completely ignored the black barrel of the gun that was aimed at her. She lowered her head with a focused expression, quickly took off the ring from the severed finger that was oozing blood, and put it on her thumb.
Then she raised her head, looked at Xu Le, and calmly explained, "Comrade, you don't know. This kind of sensor has a delay period of one second."
When Xu Le heard this sentence, his facial expression didn't change at all. However, the burning power that was poured into the muscle fibers of his legs gradually dissipated. The ring had already been put on the woman's finger. And it was obvious that this woman was very difficult to deal with. Even if he knew that there was a delay period of one second, he wasn't confident that he could take it away.
The woman noticed his nervousness, smiled and got up from the bed. She pulled the hem of her nightgown like a lady, but the white and plump chest was even more obvious.
She walked in front of Xu Le, took off the ring, and handed it over to him.
Xu Le took the ring and quickly put it on, but he didn't take back the gun. He was still aiming at the woman.
The woman smiled and didn't care about his vigilance. She walked back to the bed with a serious expression.
Comrade Jin Qiude was lying on the bed, his eyes filled with fear and confusion. He powerlessly looked at the blood on the messy bed and his four severed fingers. He wanted to use his left hand to grab his right hand that was constantly bleeding, but he couldn't move it at all.
His white hair was disheveled and wet, covering his forehead. This old man that countless people of Green Dragon Mountain secretly hated to the bone appeared unprecedentedly desolate. Within his old and shriveled body, in a place invisible to the naked eye, his heart was unceasingly spurting out blood, pouring into the two punctured lung lobes.
The blood entered his lungs, causing him to cough violently. Blood with saliva foam splashed out of his pale lips from time to time. The old man moved his eyes with great difficulty, staring at the woman beside the bed. It was as if this was the first time he was seeing this woman who had been with him for a long time, who was usually very stupid and vulgar.
Jin Qiude was already unable to speak. The woman looked at the man who was coughing and said seriously, "This is the latest order from the committee. The leader of Southern Water told me to tell you that the organization only needs loyal members."
Hearing these words, hearing the words' leader of Southern Water ', the comrade who was about to become the Federation's vice president showed incomparable fear in his eyes. His shriveled body twitched twice on the bed, and he stopped breathing in despair.
Xu Le looked at the woman's back and slowly put down the gun. He asked, "You can kill him at any time. Why do you have to choose now?"
The woman turned around. The serious expression on her face had already disappeared, returning to a charming and timid appearance. She explained in a soft voice, "If the Federation's people think that this is another bloody power struggle within the organization, it will damage the reputation of the committee and the leader of Southern Water. Therefore, you have to be the scapegoat."
Xu Le shrugged and replied, "I'm happy to do so."
Before leaving, he turned around and looked at the woman who was preparing to go under the bed to complete her role. He asked curiously, "May I know … your name or code name?"
