Chapter 917: A Belly Full of Bad Intentions

Some say guns are fast beyond seven steps, and knives are fast within seven steps, but in fact, this sentence is pure nonsense.

Of course, it can't be said that it's all nonsense. To be precise, the first half of the sentence "guns are fast beyond seven steps" is correct, and what's wrong is the second half.

Because the second half should be changed to "guns are fast and accurate within seven steps."

This guy named Ma Lei Zi, although his reaction speed was very fast, and he subconsciously raised his gun to counterattack when he was fleeing to the window.

But because he lost the initiative from the start, and the distance in the room was too close, he was still hit in the thigh by a bullet.

But it must be admitted that this kid's marksmanship was indeed very awesome. Firing in such a caught-off-guard situation, he still killed the guy who hit his thigh with one shot.

With this marksmanship, even Wang An might have to give a thumbs up.

However, the mutual shooting between these two directly ignited the gunpowder-like atmosphere in the room instantly.

The dozen or so people on the west side and the three remaining people with good marksmanship on the east side directly opened fire regardless of anything else.

Even the boss Wei Cheng, who was in front of these three, didn't escape. I don't know if those dozen people were intentional or unintentional, but anyway, several bullets hit Wei Cheng's body.

It must be said, even if your marksmanship is 100% accurate and awesome, when a bunch of muzzles are aimed at you and firing, your awesome marksmanship is completely useless.

After a very short mutual shooting between the two sides, the boss Wei Cheng and the three remaining sharpshooters all fell into a pool of blood.

Of course, the remaining dozen or so people didn't have it easy either. Besides the one killed by Ma Lei Zi, two more were killed by the three so-called sharpshooters before they died.

And among those who died, the most wronged person might be the boss Wei Cheng.

Mainly, he hadn't figured out whether he should surrender or how to escape safely, and this happened; he was just confusedly shot to death by his subordinates.

It must be admitted that loan sharks in this era are indeed not good people; each and every one of them has a belly full of bad intentions.

It wasn't until this moment that the person who had been organizing the surrender couldn't help but ask loudly:

"Who fired at the boss? Huh? What are you trying to do?"

But as soon as his question was finished, several pairs of eyes looked at him. However, I don't know why, after these people looked at him, they didn't say anything, and all glared at him fiercely in unison.

From the eyes of these people, it's not hard to see that these people were despising this kid.

So clearly, this person who was shouting loudly was righteously crying "thief" while being the thief.

Fortunately, this person was also very tactful. After noticing these several pairs of unkind eyes, he immediately changed his words:

"They all say bullets don't have eyes, why did the boss bump into the bullets? Isn't this ridiculous?"

Just as he was muttering, someone next to him suddenly interrupted:

"Alright, stop pretending to be a fool here. He deserved to die. Who among you dares to say you don't owe that old bastard money? Damn it, if it weren't for owing him money, who would do this dog's job?"

Another person next to him said:

"Yeah, I owe him money now, even to my grandson's generation, I can't pay it back. He even hired 4 sharpshooters to guard against us. What's the use of sharpshooters? Damn, this idiot, cough, retreat!"

After speaking, this person spat a big sticky phlegm at Wei Cheng's corpse.

It must be said, his phlegm was quite accurate, landing right on Wei Cheng's big forehead.

However, from this series of words, a lot of information was immediately revealed. This so-called boss Wei Cheng truly had no humanity at all, even cheating his own subordinates.

No wonder he gave himself the nickname "Pixiu"; with his methods, he was even more "Pixiu" than a Pixiu.

Just like that, after everyone cursed at Wei Cheng's corpse one after another, the whole room finally quieted down gradually.

The person who spoke before said:

"Let's go, brothers. Let's just go out and surrender; whatever happens, happens."

Just as everyone nodded and intended to walk out together, someone suddenly shouted:

"Should we find the IOUs we wrote? I reckon that thing will be a disaster sooner or later. Don't let someone block us with the IOUs after we get out of jail."

This person's words instantly reminded everyone and also received a response from everyone.

But what makes people admire the most is actually his phrase "after we get out of jail."

Because this shows that he has clearly recognized that after they surrender, they will definitely stay in jail for a period of time.

And the reason it's admirable is also because of his very calm attitude.

Mainly, this is too damn calm!

Consequently, this big group of people searched through every room in this house.

And Wang An and the others outside the courtyard, hearing the very dense gunfire in the room, couldn't help but frown.

Mainly, Wang An and the others couldn't imagine that this group of loan sharks had infighting, and such serious infighting that even their boss, Comrade Wei Cheng, was shot to death by random gunfire.

This behavior of killing the leader first when something goes wrong, who has heard of it?

Subconsciously, Sun Nian asked Wang An:

"Xiao An, what do you think is going on? There are several types of gunfire?"

Wang An pondered for a long time before frowning and saying:

"It's bad, we might have to fight a hard battle with them. They likely killed all those who wanted to come out and surrender voluntarily."

Although the fact was exactly the opposite of Wang An's guess, Wang An's thinking was actually not wrong.

Because after the gunfire, these survivors didn't choose to come out and surrender immediately, but searched for the IOUs they had written.

Sun Nian nodded slowly upon hearing this, but her eyes were full of worry.

After all, mutual shooting with guns is something no one likes to face. One must know that bullets don't have eyes; no matter who gets hit, it's bad.

And if such a thing happens, Sun Nian, as the current supreme commander, must bear major responsibility.

Of course, even setting aside the issue of responsibility, no one wants to see colleagues and subordinates who spend every day together get hit and fall during a battle.

However, due to responsibility and duty, the police officers couldn't retreat, so this feeling was truly not easy to bear.

Thinking for a moment, Sun Nian said to Captain Zhou, who was still shouting:

"Tell them, if they don't come out and surrender within 3 minutes, we will launch a strong attack."
