Chapter 174: Father and Son Meet
On the Warrior School side, this accidental incident is basically nearing its end.
Among those sent by Shang Ming, the only one still alive is Natasha.
Oh, right, there's also Wang Qing Shan, whose codename is 'Golden Tuna'.
At this moment, Wang Qing Shan was hiding at the corner of the second-floor exterior wall of a three-story building thirty meters beyond the rooftop where He Chen Guang and the others were hiding, holding a night-vision telescope and looking at Wang Yanbing lying on the distant rooftop.
He very much wanted to go over and see his own son, but he didn't dare.
Because he couldn't be certain of the final outcome of this operation, if Shang Ming managed to escape, he would have to return to his side and continue undercover before receiving any orders.
But Wang Qing Shan hadn't realized that he had already been discovered just three seconds earlier.
However, the one who discovered him was not someone else but Natasha, who should be considered one of their own! But at this moment Natasha had already seen through Wang Qing Shan's identity.
Of course, Liu Xiaotian was also silently cursing to himself.
At one, one look `nothing, one mistaken version%!'
The gushing crimson blood, the stark white bone fragments, and the torn flesh made Natasha truly feel the power of the Dragunov semi-automatic sniper rifle.
Or perhaps he wanted to test whether the glass of Warrior School all had bulletproof capability.
It's been years since the two elders last saw each other; Wang Yanbing, as his biological son, would likely be stunned upon seeing Wang Qing Shan and need a moment to react—how would you, Liu Xiaotian, know? After notifying the three to come over, Liu Xiaotian didn't linger; he immediately climbed up the exterior wall on the other side to the second floor where Natasha was, checked for no danger, then climbed inside.
He certainly couldn't just call Wang Yanbing over.
Perhaps it was because he was too rushed, or perhaps in the instant he pulled the trigger he recalled Elder Principal's attitude toward that young man named Xie Liaosha earlier; at the moment of firing, Liu Xiaotian's gun barrel dipped slightly, so the bullet didn't hit Natasha's head but instead pierced her collarbone.
Of course, this wasn't just the effect of Liu Xiaotian's single shot; it was caused by a bullet hitting him as he fled the small building where Elder Principal lived.
If that's the case, outsiders would have no way or right to judge right from wrong.
As Natasha's finger resting on the trigger applied slight, steady pressure, that AK-103 rifle was also on the verge of firing.
Inside Elder Principal's small building, Liu Xiaotian vaguely heard that this Western beauty, who had taken a name from the Arctic Circle, was doing this not for money or any other gain, but to avenge her grandfather.
At the same time, Liu Xiaotian, who had taken out Xiezi, retrieved his Dragunov semi-automatic sniper rifle, reloaded the bullets he had withdrawn, and was returning along the same route with the gun at the ready; he was now less than a hundred meters from Wang Qing Shan's hiding place.
He only needed to know that the woman before him, whose appearance, figure, and all feminine traits were nearly perfect and flawless, was someone he could not kill.
At this moment, Wang Qing Shan, who had been shot and then fallen, causing him to faint, also woke up.
Without any hesitation, Liu Xiaotian immediately pulled the trigger.
If it weren't for a sudden flicker of vigilance in his heart at the last moment, prompting an unconscious dodging motion, that bullet would have struck not his shoulder but his temple.
After pulling the trigger, Liu Xiaotian had no time to blame 'Jiaweis' for not warning of an enemy despite being within a hundred meters; instead, he immediately ran toward the direction where Wang Qing Shan had fallen.
The gunshot rang out, and Wang Qing Shan's body immediately fell from the exterior wall of the stairwell.
The muzzle of the AK-103 rifle she had taken from a soldier she killed in the action team was already quietly aimed at Wang Qing Shan's head, her finger slowly pressing the trigger. Turning her own small building into something like a safe house, these ordinary houses using ordinary glass—wouldn't the people inside easily become casualties in such incidents?
After all, he currently lacks sufficient understanding of both Warrior School and Elder Principal.
At the same time, he also didn't want to kill.
The facts prove that, regardless of whether Elder Principal could come up with that sum of money, he never did so.
Even if it weren't in the courtyard of Warrior School, he would have let the person go.
Or put another way, he currently doesn't need to understand much at all.
The reasoning is simple: everyone has their own relatives; even if that person is wicked to the extreme, if they treat you with countless attentions and complete obedience, even hating to give you the stars and moon, would you consider them a bad person? The only thing Liu Xiaotian doesn't understand is that, from the information he's heard, it seems he hasn't heard that Elder Principal did anything wrong to Natasha's grandfather—why is this girl so extreme, insisting on taking revenge on them, even at any cost?
However, due to the pressing time, and with Wang Qing Shan unaware that Shang Ming had already been blown into many pieces and become food for marine creatures, he had to leave first, then report the situation to his superiors after confirming Shang Ming's condition to arrange the next steps.
But before that, he had shattered several panes of glass in succession. Whether it was to frighten Natasha inside, only Liu Xiaotian himself knows.
Upon hearing the gunshot, Liu Xiaotian immediately adjusted his aim toward the sound; after 1.5 seconds he had locked onto Natasha at the second-floor window of a two-story building.
At that moment, Liu Xiaotian really wanted to exclaim: 'As expected, an old fox is crafty, an old horse is slippery, but an old rabbit has no teeth!'
Thinking is one thing, but Liu Xiaotian's actions were by no means careless; in a few quick moves he tied Natasha up securely, then immediately contacted Elder Principal on the communication frequency to report the situation here.
When he saw clearly that the injured person was Wang Qing Shan, Liu Xiaotian had no hesitation and immediately pressed the communicator to tell He Chen Guang and the three others to rush over right away.
To him, a gunshot wound to the shoulder blade wasn't considered a serious injury; although it also hurt the bone, the situation wasn't too bad.
"Bang!"
How to put it? Say your dad got hurt, hurry over and take a look?
Compared to the joy of seeing his son, such an injury amounts to nothing.
Her body was knocked to the ground by the bullet's tremendous kinetic energy, and she failed to stand up twice in a row.
Before receiving permission, he could not reveal his identity openly at Warrior School.
Wang Yanbing, He Chen Guang, Li Erniu, and even Wang Qing Shan himself had not yet realized that, if it weren't for Elder Principal having grasped something beforehand, Wang Qing Shan would have no way to survive.
Besides Natasha's attack, which Wang Qing Shan deflected using his own ability and instinctive reaction, if it weren't for Elder Principal's arrangements, he would have already died at least three times by now.
Nobody else says it, but just look at the 'Western Old Yang Guo' still standing on the rooftop of Elder Principal's small building—killing him would be effortless……
