Chapter 425 - Tell Me about You (1/2)
Xiao Luo grimaced; it was negligence on his part that they managed to escape from right under his nose; he should have seen it coming. The two black-clad assassins were evidently highly skilled and trained regularly, but they didn’t present too much of a problem for him. Xiao Luo reckoned that they were on par with NSA’s level A agents at least, for they were quick, and despite being injured, they used the tools of their trade well. They were so close to being captured, yet managed to create a diversion with the smoke bomb and escape.
Xiao Luo wondered where they came from.
The MLM organization?
If there really were such superbly trained and fierce fighters in the MLM organization, then it made sense that the NSA had assigned him to the MLM mission in Xiahai. With such skilled assassins around, the regular police would find it hard to deal with them.
The boys from the Wild Wolf Mountain Motorsport team were still reeling from the traumatic experience of seeing two of their colleagues killed most viciously. And, just when they thought they’d be killed by the two assassins, Xiao Luo came and defeated the killers in mere seconds. It was unbelievable, for, if the black-clad assassins were demons, then what would that make Xiao Luo, the King of Demons?
“Gulp!”
Trembling in fear, Lei Shijian suddenly felt thirsty, and he could barely swallow his saliva. He broke into a cold sweat when he realized that Xiao Luo was approaching him, and even his breathing was labored.
He unconsciously hid the baseball bat behind his back, while several of his boys even dropped their bats and pipes on the ground in a sign of surrender. The Wilf Wolf Mountain boys shook as they looked at Xiao Luo, expecting the worst. As they recalled just a moment ago, they had boasted about teaching Xiao Luo a lesson and beat up if he didn’t hand them the money.
Xiao Luo stood with his hands on his hips, staring at them. He then eyed Lei Shijian and said, “Aren’t you going to …”
“B-brother, please spare us, pardon our foolishness… we are ignorant fools, please spare our lives!”
Almost in tears, Lei Shijian dropped the bat and went down on his knees before Xiao Luo, pleading for mercy.
Pale with fear, the Wild Wolf Mountain boys immediately dropped to their knees behind their leader. Had they not witnessed it themselves, they’d never have believed that such terrifying human beings actually existed in this world. These men were total monsters, demons that could cut a man in half with a single slash, or send a massive trishaw stall flying with one kick. What they had seen tonight had frightened them and changed the way they understood the world.
Frowning, Xiao Luo shook his head and said, “You have mistaken my intention, I did not…”
“Brother, I beg you, there’s a hundred thousand in this bank card. Please accept it as compensation for the trouble we caused, the password is 888888.” Lei Shijian implored, respectfully handing over a card with both hands.
Hmm?
Xiao Luo’s expression changed a little, for he had only intended to ask Lei Shijian to call the police, but seeing how things had panned out, he didn’t mind at all.
“You’re pretty street smart, I like that!”
He gave Lei Shijian a pat on his shoulder and kept the bank card, for it was his policy not to reject money offered.
Xiao Luo then walked over to Su Canye, who was still stunned and brought him back to his senses with a kick up his rear-end. “What are you doing here? Let’s go,” he said.
“Brother-in-law, it… it’s a murder, they’ve killed people!”
Trembling Su Canye choked as he pointed at the ghastly bodies that had been hewn in half, his face pale with shock and fear.
“Take it as you’d just watched a free kungfu performance.”
Xiao Luo comforted him as they walked toward their cars.
Su Canye hurried to walk alongside Xiao Luo, but still feeling weak at the knees, he almost stumbled. When he got back into the Bentley, he leaned back in the plush leather seat and took a deep breath to calm himself down. He had hardly recovered when he was startled by a knock on his window. He nearly jumped off his seat, but it turned out to be Xiao Luo, who was gesturing for him to wind down his window.
Relieved, Su Canye brought the window down, but before he could even speak, he felt himself going into a trance and everything around him become hazy… Xiao Luo had hypnotized to him!
A little while later, things seemed to have become clear once again. Looking at Xiao Luo in surprise, he asked, “Brother-in-law, why are you looking at me like that? Oh, my gawd, where are we, how long have we been here?”
“You’ve blacked out, I asked you out for supper, remember?” Xiao Luo replied, coughing dryly.
“Really? Why do I feel so dizzy?”
Su Canye scratched the back of his head, glanced at the stall by the road with a disgusted look on his face, and said, “Brother-in-law, you can’t seriously be thinking of having supper here, right? Look at this place—it’s so unhygienic, you’ll surely suffer from food poisoning if you eat here… Oi? Why does it feel like I had said this not too long ago?”
