Chapter 1249: The Sharpshooter Nearly Succeeds

L Country.

"Trash, useless things, what use are any of you to me?"

Liu Min stood with her hands on her hips, cursing loudly.

She was furious.

These people claimed to be extraordinary individuals, skilled at winning through unconventional means.

Whether they could win or not was unknown, but they certainly handled things in an unconventional way!

They went to Jiangzhou to kill someone, but fled back without even catching a glimpse of the person's Yingzi.

Black Widow and the dwarf were in the wrong; they didn't retort when scolded, only suppressing their frustration inside.

But the remaining few were having none of it.

The first to speak was the sharpshooter; he stepped out and said stiffly, "Enough, Commander, take a break and stop cursing; it doesn't solve any problems. I'll go to Jiangzhou and finish that kid off, that'll do, right?"

"Just you?"

Liu Min sneered, "Don't blame me for looking down on you, but if they couldn't do it, can you?"

"Jiangzhou is a gun-free zone; your skills will have no place to be used there."

Sharpshooter: "Whether I can or not, I have to try to know." After saying this, he walked out, not taking Liu Min seriously at all.

Liu Min shouted angrily behind him: "Come back, without my orders, you aren't going anywhere!"

The rest of them followed and left as well.

Liu Min was even angrier then: "What do you mean by this? Did I tell you to leave?"

Black Widow, acting as the representative for the group, retorted: "Does the Commander have anything else for us?"

Liu Min:...

Nothing.

She just wanted to scold them to vent her anger.

The reason she was so angry was not because they failed the mission, but to put on a show for Qi Heng.

She was using this method to prove to Qi Heng that there was no longer a place for Yun Qitian in her heart, and that she truly wanted to kill him to prove her resolve, not just for show.

Actually, Liu Min was doing something unnecessary; it was completely uncalled for.

Qi Heng wouldn't care about what she was thinking; he only wanted results!

Jiangzhou.

The seaside.

A seemingly ordinary boat was docked at the pier; the sharpshooter walked out of the cabin, stretched his limbs, and a smile appeared on his face.

Jiangzhou, I'm here.

The sky here was very blue, the clouds were very white, the sea was calm, and everything was quiet and peaceful.

But since he had arrived, Jiangzhou would soon have that peace broken.

"Where is my bag?" he asked the boat captain.

Originally, his bag and he were never separated; the bag never left the person, and the person never left the bag.

But the boat captain had said the luggage had to be placed in a designated area, otherwise, if they encountered the coast guard, everyone would be in trouble!

Inside his bag was a gun.

In no other country in the world was gun control as strict as in Jiangzhou.

It was one thing that normal channels were blocked, but even smuggling was this strict.

He hadn't agreed, but the captain wouldn't sail, so he had no choice but to comply.

Now that they had arrived, it was time to return his things to him!

"Please wait a moment, I'll bring it to you right away."

The captain didn't let anyone else do it, personally retrieving the bag and offering it with both hands: "Please check it and see if there's any problem?"

"Once you leave here, if any problems arise, I won't be responsible."

He took it and checked; everything was normal, there were no issues.

"Thanks."

He grabbed the bag and left.

The captain stood behind him, watching until he was too far away to be seen, then muttered to himself: "No need to thank me! Just don't think of me later."

YundingDasha.

The top floor.

The sharpshooter stood there, taking a look at the opposite side.

Just one look, and he had already calculated everything—the distance between the buildings, the wind speed, everything was just right, and the positioning and distance were all suitable.

The target was in the top-floor office area of the building opposite.

The office wasn't small, but there were two people!

He only wanted one person's life today; the other person had to be completely unharmed!

If there were no obstacles in between, there would be no problem at all.

But he was separated from the target by glass, which made it difficult.

High-rise glass was already thick, and the glass of the Dingsheng office building was even bulletproof.

If it were an ordinary sniper, they might give up on assassinating Yun Qitian in the office building and choose another location.

But he did not retreat.

Retreating when encountering difficulties did not fit his character, nor could it demonstrate his strength.

He took out a bullet, pulled out a small file, and began to file it!

Methodical and meticulous.

About an hour later, he carefully observed the bullet; it was ready and could meet his requirements.

The bullet was chambered, and he took aim.

Two people were working in the office, working very seriously; for over an hour, they hadn't even moved from their spots.

"Bang!"

The bullet was fired...

Dingsheng.

President Office.

Yun Qitian raised his head from the desk and complained to Shi Ran with concern: "You are a girl, why do you work so hard all day? You should learn to delegate, for example, to the guy sitting across from you; let him do more work, and you could be much more relaxed!"

Shi Ran also raised her head; just as she was about to say something, she suddenly noticed something on the roof of the opposite building rushing toward them at high speed.

She had sharp eyes and quick reflexes.

The moment the bullet pierced the glass, she realized it was a bullet!

Shi Ran exclaimed: "Get down!"

Yun Qitian's reaction was also very fast; at the same time Shi Ran shouted, he also noticed it.

But he did not obey and get down; instead, at the same time as the loud "Bang!" sound, he leaped up and tackled Shi Ran to the ground.

"Clatter—"

The glass shattered in response to the sound.

After shattering the glass, the bullet did not penetrate through but instead became embedded in the broken glass.

Such a huge commotion in the President Office quickly alerted others.

When people rescued the two from under the broken glass, both had already been knocked unconscious by the tremendous sound.

The bullet embedded in the broken glass was also discovered.

The two were sent to the hospital with the utmost speed.

Someone actually fired a shot at the President Office?

The target was quickly locked onto the opposite building, but the police found no clues on the roof; it was clean, and not even a single fingerprint was left behind.

Having no problems at all was, in itself, a problem.

It was impossible for the roof to be that clean, without even any dust; this was unscientific.

The entire Jiangzhou was shocked.

Given such a serious incident, the police began a thorough investigation.

But they didn't find a single person, nor even a clue.

At the same time, the sharpshooter was incredibly furious.

He searched everywhere by the seaside for the boat captain who brought him there; if he found him, that person would certainly die.

He didn't find him; he was nowhere to be found.

He couldn't stay in Jiangzhou for too long, so he had to flee.

The gun had been tampered with, and the firing pin had a problem; although it was very, very small, a slight difference could lead to a huge discrepancy.

Hospital.

Yun Qitian woke up, and his first words were: "Where is Ranran? How is she?"

Ma Ling'er was very happy to see her son wake up; she wasn't angry that his first words upon waking were to ask about Shi Ran's safety, and she replied: "Ranran is fine, she just hasn't woken up yet."

"I want to go see her."

He struggled to sit up, but his mother pressed him back down: "Stay put. Your body hasn't recovered yet, so you can't go anywhere, let alone go see someone else! Does your arm hurt?"

Only then did Yun Qitian notice that his arm was wrapped in bandages.
