23 Boss Luo (1/2)

The factory manager, Wang Dongyang, felt a sense of despair growing as it grasped at his heart like a creeper vine. He didn't think he would get seen through by an unexpected development. He couldn't understand why this youth facing him knew about guns.

A second later, he suddenly took a step back as he wanted to use this opportunity to disengage the safety. But Ren Xiaosu would never give him the chance to do so. He charged at Wang Dongyang like a cannonball, crushing Wang Dongyang's ribs. Even his gun was sent flying out of his hand.

Wang Dongyang had nothing to rely on now. He laid on the ground, coughing up blood, and said, ”Let me go. I'll tell you where I kept all my belongings.”

”Tell me first and I'll let you go,” Ren Xiaosu said calmly.

”Do you think I'm stupid?” Wang Dongyang actually knew this was just a futile attempt to be let off. How could this teen possibly let him go? If Ren Xiaosu allowed him to leave, could he still survive in the vicinity of Stronghold 113? And when Wang Dongyang first learned of the existence of Ren Xiaosu, he was even referred to as… Ruthless Ren Xiaosu.

”Your lungs have already been pierced by your broken ribs, so it's too late for you even if you go back to town now.” Ren Xiaosu laughed. Although he was eager to get Wang Dongyang's belongings, it was clear that he would not tell him where he kept them.

Ren Xiaosu wasted no time here. He did not know when the battle between the private army and the wolves would end. But if he dragged his feet around here any longer, it would not end well for him no matter which side arrived at the factory.

The sound of a sharp weapon cutting through leather tore the air. Ren Xiaosu used the bone knife to imitate a wolf's claws slashing across Wang Dongyang's chest, creating fake wounds. He waited until he was certain Wang Dongyang's vital signs had stopped before he picked up the pistol and headed out. Ren Xiaosu also took the two magazines Wang Dongyang carried on him.

There were a total of 36 bullets.

By the time Ren Xiaosu left the factory, no one remained alive. Ren Xiaosu turned around and gazed at the building where a bloodbath had taken place. Behind him was the darkness of night. This was the world he lived in.

…

”Bro, are you alright?” Yan Liuyuan said eagerly when he saw Ren Xiaosu lift the curtain door and walk in. He circled around Ren Xiaosu to check if there were any bloodstains on him before he felt at ease.

”I'm fine.” While tying the bone knife back around his calf, Ren Xiaosu asked, ”Did anything happen in town while I was away? Is the private army back yet?”

”Some of them have returned. They brought some wounded soldiers back with them, as well as the dead bodies of their fellow soldiers and carcasses of the wolves. I heard that the rest of the troops continued on to the factory,” Yan Liuyuan said.

Ren Xiaosu didn't think that this was unusual. No matter how strong the wild wolves might be, it would be impossible for them to win when faced with a private army that was several times greater than them in number. Moreover, the soldiers were even carrying weapons with them.

”How many wolf carcasses did they bring back?” Ren Xiaosu asked.

”Over thirty of them.” Yan Liuyuan said, ”Bro, those wild wolves are enormous!”

When Yan Liuyuan had asked Ren Xiaosu what size the wolves were, Ren Xiaosu just described them as very big. As for what ”very big” truly meant, Yan Liuyuan found out today.

Ren Xiaosu frowned. He was glad that he hadn't stayed at the factory for too long. Otherwise, he would likely have run into the private army that arrived at the factory shortly after. It seemed that the wolves withdrew once they felt that their ambush had failed. So the battle with them did not delay the private army for too long.

It was no wonder he didn't hear any gunshots in the wilderness when he came back via an alternate route.

However, the wolves were getting stronger and smarter. If they let them go this time, the people in town might have to face an even stronger attack from them the next time.

Suddenly, a commotion brewed outside. Ren Xiaosu lifted the curtain door and watched what was happening. It turned out that a group of ten soldiers from the private army had driven back in advance in an off-road vehicle.

An officer in the vehicle said, ”Anyone who volunteers any information on those who went out of town tonight will be handsomely rewarded!”

Ren Xiaosu was taken aback because he knew they were clearly looking for him!

They must have already gone to the factory and looked around the place. Ren Xiaosu had thought that it would be impossible for a normal person to discover the phoniness of Wang Dongyang's wounds. However, there was still a crucial problem that could not be reconciled—Wang Dongyang's pistol had gone missing!

If someone worked backwards upon discovering this problem, it would be easy to get clues on what had happened. This was something that Ren Xiaosu could not prevent.

”Bro.” Yan Liuyuan got worried as he looked at Ren Xiaosu. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
