Protagonist:
Su Mo
"This, we……"
Second-in-command's eyes darted about, somewhat hesitant.
These things were the lifeblood of their Axe Gang; if anything went wrong with them.
By then, even if he was Second-in-command of the Axe Gang, he would very likely be shot dead to serve as a warning.
"That Shaoye." Second-in-command gritted his teeth, putting on an act of knowing nothing, saying, "This matter, I, I don't know…… Although I am Second-in-command of the Axe Gang, I have no real authority, usually only responsible for fighting and killing; as for these things, only Big Brother and the others know."
"Hmm?"
Su Mo saw through Second-in-command's little tricks, smiled faintly, and pressed the gun against his forehead.
"Need me to help you recall?"
Click!
Su Mo pulled the bolt; that was the sound of a round being chambered.
Now, as long as he pulled the trigger, Second-in-command's fat head in front of him would explode like a smashed watermelon in an instant!
"No, no need!"
Seeing the black muzzle, Second-in-command was instantly terrified into a cold sweat.
He dared not play petty tricks with Su Mo, immediately saying, "I, I remember, I remember!"
"Then say it."
The gun remained pressed against his forehead; Su Mo had no intention of taking it away.
"I…… we……"
Second-in-command swallowed hard, then said cautiously, "Our Axe Gang does, indeed have these things, but the quantity isn't too large, and the types aren't many either."
Su Mo continued asking, "Where are they all kept?"
"This……"
Before Second-in-command could speak, the muzzle in Su Mo's hand moved forward a few more inches.
"Reminding you, think clearly before speaking."
"It, it's under the Du Men." Second-in-command hurriedly said, "Down there is an An Ku, storing all the wealth our Axe Gang has accumulated over these years."
"Why didn't you say so earlier, wasting time."
Su Mo put away his gun, asking, "Do you know how to get in?"
"I, I know!"
Second-in-command nodded repeatedly, afraid he'd be killed if he was a second late.
"Good, take me in."
"Okay, okay."
……
……
Moment Later.
Underground level of the Du Men.
Second-in-command of the Axe Gang led Su Mo left and right, finally arriving at the door of a hidden room.
"Shaoye, it's here."
Second-in-command stopped, pointing at the door.
"Open the door."
"Okay."
Taking out the prepared key, Second-in-command opened the door of the An Ku, leading Su Mo into the place where their Axe Gang stored military supplies.
Entering the room.
The scale inside wasn't large.
The things were as Second-in-command said, indeed not many.
Basically all small handguns, only two slightly larger ones, and the number of bullets wasn't too many either.
But these weren't important; what truly caught Su Mo's eye was a batch of gunpowder in the corner of the room, conservatively estimated enough to raze more than ten such Du Men to the ground!
Not bad!
The things here had already exceeded his expectations.
Originally thought the Axe Gang at most stored some timely guns.
Didn't expect there was actually a batch of gunpowder!
With these things, dealing with the Axe Gang would be much simpler than him alone……
And with this batch of gunpowder, there was no problem wanting to take first place this time.
Su Mo looked at these things, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Just as Su Mo was preparing to take these things away, Second-in-command, who had been honest off to the side for half a day, took advantage of Su Mo not paying attention to him, slowly moving toward the door.
When he finally reached the door, without any hesitation he directly rushed out.
Even with one leg injured, he quickly ran out of the room.
Afterwards only heard a 'Bang', Second-in-command directly locked the room door tightly from the outside.
"Damn it, still thinking of me? You just wait here to die!"
The Second-in-command spat a mouthful of phlegm, cursing viciously.
As if venting all the humiliation he had just suffered in this very moment.
While speaking, he limped toward the rear switch, preparing to directly detonate all the gunpowder inside the storeroom, blowing Su Mo to death inside.
This switch was designed by the Master Strategist back then.
Under the fine name that if they encountered trouble that couldn't be resolved, they could lure the person here.
At that time, taking advantage of his carelessness, they would lock him inside, then detonate the gunpowder inside from outside the door, directly blowing him to death.
At that time, the Second-in-command sneered at this proposal.
Feeling it was completely superfluous.
He never expected that the plan he had looked down on back then would actually be used by himself today.
The Second-in-command looked at the switch placed before him, and couldn't help but exclaim with emotion: "Master Strategist, you really are a fucking talent!"
Immediately he raised his hand and pressed heavily on the switch!
"..."
However, after waiting a moment, no sound came from inside the room.
"Hiss... that shouldn't be right?"
The Second-in-command blanked slightly, not understanding the reason.
According to normal circumstances, even if the walls around the secret vault were sturdier, a moderate explosion should more or less transmit some noise, right?
Yet now there was indeed no sound at all...
This was truly something the Second-in-command had not anticipated.
Thinking of this, the Second-in-command wondered if he hadn't actually pressed it down just now.
Immediately he raised his hand and pressed again.
Click!
The switch sounded again, and after another moment of waiting.
"..."
Still the same as before, no sound came from the direction of the secret vault.
This time the Second-in-command was completely dumbfounded.
"Hiss..."
"Could it be that the Master Strategist and them replaced the walls with soundproof explosion-proof ones?"
But even if the materials chosen were that good, it's impossible that not a single bit of sound would come out, right?
Could it be... that after this long without maintenance, the fuse has a problem?
Should I, open it and go in to take a look?
"..."
The Second-in-command hesitated somewhat.
Not knowing whether he should or shouldn't open this door.
If he opens it and it detonates, fine; if it doesn't detonate, then this time he's thoroughly done for here!
But if he doesn't go in now, he also can't confirm the specific situation inside.
Even more so, whether Su Mo is dead or not...
Amidst the hesitation, the Second-in-command had already walked to the main gate, his palm already gripping the doorknob.
According to conventional analysis.
The detonation just now should have no problems; that killing god should already be dead inside the secret vault.
"Open it, take a look?"
Just as the Second-in-command's hand was already on the doorknob, about to turn it and open the door, the folding fan alloy gate suddenly trembled violently, immediately followed by a huge boom from within.
With a "Bang", it gave the Second-in-command a violent start.
Finally there's sound...
The Second-in-command's eyes revealed a trace of relief.
Looks like it should be a delay in detonating the explosives, only now detonating the explosives inside the room.
