Chapter 136: The gun shoots the bird that sticks its head out.
Watching the man on stage, and several passages around where people were on guard, Yun Ran let out a slight sigh in her heart.
She thought the pirates hadn’t closed in yet, but it turned out that they had inside men who had infiltrated the place, even into the kitchen.
It seems that next time, she must improve Little Paperman, being able to sense Evil Energy and catch wrongdoers is not enough.
She needs to give them the ability to distinguish the bad people. Otherwise, when bad people behave, Little Paperman easily overlooks them.
While everyone else got called and was scared to death, Yun Ran still had the mood to check and fill the gaps, truly a marvel.
The police squatting in the crowd, and Taoist Xia in the corner, watching this scene, were originally extremely anxious.
But after hearing Yun Ran being called out, those who were just considering whether to reveal their identities, suddenly suppressed the urgency in their hearts.
In this first round of names, there are twenty people, both men and women, who are now required to stand on stage in a line.
Xia Jing’s legs were a bit soft, but she didn’t fall, thanks to leaning on Yun Ran.
It didn’t take long for a simple table to be brought over, with two guns placed on it.
"Let’s play a game, Russian Roulette, you’ve heard of it, right? Those who don’t play, might as well exit early."
Immediately, someone got scared to the point of wetting themselves, but they dared not say they wouldn’t play, fearing the madman would really shoot them.
"We have money, you can have as much as you want, my dad has a lot of money!"
"Right, however much money you want, I’ll give it to you."
"I can give you anything..."
The people squatting below, at this moment, completely lost their sense of relief, even feeling as if their family’s ancestral ghosts were waving at them.
The few policemen looked at each other, they didn’t expect the situation to be so severe, each of their expressions turned extremely solemn.
The game on stage continued, in front of everyone at the venue, for them, it was simply a naked spiritual torture.
The man glanced at the people on stage, these were the ones the employer asked to be taken out first, originally he could have just done them in directly.
But he was a man of pursuits, not liking to be so simple and crude, even if he was to off some people, it needed to be conducted with a sense of ritual. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Scanning the line of people, everyone else looked as if the sky had fallen, only Yun Ran, with an air of having come only to take a quick look around before leaving, stood out conspicuously.
"Miss Yun Ran, you go first."
They say the gun shoots the bird that sticks its head out, in this moment, the saying completely mirrors the reality.
Yun Ran stepped forward, looked at the two guns on the table, casually picked up one, and then put it down: "I don’t know how to play, can you teach me?"
Everyone: ...
I mean, in such a tense moment, you’re still messing around, are you seriously not afraid of dying?!
Someone in the shadows saw Yun Ran being sent to the ’guillotine’, their heart rising to their throat.
The sir had said, they must protect the young lady’s safety at all costs, even if their original mission failed, they must send the young lady out safely.
The man on stage gave Yun Ran a cold glance, this person who was specially cautioned by the employer, and temporarily added to the list, was indeed somewhat different.
While everyone else was wetting themselves in fear, she was not only unafraid, but also had the mood to ask him to teach her; truly amusing.
"Then let me teach you!"
As he spoke, the man directly grabbed another gun, his hands almost creating afterimages. When he stopped moving, the barrel was already aimed at Yun Ran.
"You think you can avoid catastrophe by being a maverick? No, this will only make you die faster!"
Little Paperman was about to rush out and give this damned man a good fight, to let him taste the consequences of his bluster.
At this moment, a feather suddenly pierced the man’s forehead. His eyes widened with disbelief, but that look was forever frozen in time.
With a "bang," the man’s body collapsed powerfully to the ground. No one saw how he was taken out.
Yun Ran’s gaze suddenly turned towards the second floor, precisely where the shooter had been standing.
The man’s accomplices were also harvested of their lives by the inconspicuous feather at the same instant.
The crowd below didn’t care who took these men out; their instinct to survive made them run for their lives. It would be stupid not to run now.
Instantly, the venue became noisy again.
Yun Ran glanced at the man lying on the ground. Xia Jing had already rushed over and was dragging her to escape. If they didn’t run now, when would they?
The owner of the feather made his move and instantly disrupted all balance, activating several hidden forces in the process.
Xia Jing dragged Yun Ran into the nearest room. Now, aside from Yun Ran, she trusted no one else.
Even if there were familiar people behind her, she cold-heartedly closed the door.
Sounds of panic came from outside—shouting, banging on the door—Xia Jing ignored all of them.
Her hands were trembling, but they didn’t stop moving. She waved Yun Ran over to help her push the mobile cabinet to block the door.
After doing all this, Xia Jing leaned weakly against the wall, her delicate makeup and hairstyle now ruined.
Her mind relaxed for a moment, giving her time to think about what had just happened. Even with rouge applied, it couldn’t make her pale complexion look normal.
"Ranran, do you know something!"
Yun Ran formed a protective spell on the door, then couldn’t hold back anymore and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ranran, what happened to you!"
"Bang bang bang..."
The successive sounds of banging on the door made Xia Jing’s body tremble. She turned to look at the door, staring intently.
"Don’t worry, they can’t get in!"
Having said that, Yun Ran sat down cross-legged and began to meditate to heal herself.
The backlash from before wasn’t enough to take her life, but it truly made her quite uncomfortable.
Several gunshots followed, but all the room’s door let through were the sounds of banging with no actual damage.
This shocked Xia Jing. When she turned her head to look at Yun Ran, she remembered a piece of information she had previously disregarded.
She had read Yun Ran’s profile—Yun Family’s burden, odd character, also interested in feudal superstitions.
Yun Ran said she would die, gave her a string of beads, just now Yun Ran was fine then after a few motions, started vomiting blood, and there’s the unscathed door...
Something clicked in Xia Jing’s mind.
Afraid her exclamation would disturb Yun Ran, Xia Jing quickly covered her mouth.
But her eyes glimmered with excitement as if she was looking at something rare.
Her fingers unconsciously stroked the string of beads she was wearing.
