93 What a scam! (1/2)

A normal 7.62 mm bullet had 2,600 joules of kinetic energy upon firing, while a 12.7 mm bullet could reach 15,000 joules of kinetic energy.

But actually, even with such simplified data available, it would still be very difficult for people to imagine how powerful a bullet from a sniper rifle was when it hit and passed through someone.

Qing Zhen's bodyguard was a supernatural being. But what was very shocking was that at a time when the various organizations were arresting these supernatural beings, Qing Zhen had started using them for his own purposes.

At this moment, this silent tiger of the Qing Consortium with a notorious reputation even among the other organizations was standing in the limelight as though this were his stage. He bent over to pick up the bullet off the ground and said with a smile, ”The Saboteurs have finally set their sights on me?”

The people around Qing Zhen were taken aback. So it was the Saboteurs who did this? That obscure legend of a group that was being discussed by the organizations?

Qing Zhen turned to look at Liu Bu. He said with a smile, ”As her agent, you didn't even know your client is a supernatural being. You're pretty stupid then. Rest in peace. There is no place for a useless person… in this era.”

Qing Zhen grabbed Liu Bu by his hair and stabbed the hand-length bullet into Liu Bu's eye with his bare hands. Liu Bu could only let out a short cry of pain before he stopped moving.

Both of Qing Zhen's hands were bloody.

…

Right now, Ren Xiaosu was standing atop the roof as he dumbfoundedly watched Yang Xiaojin dismount her gun and stand up without any delay. It was as though she already knew it would be very difficult to make another attempt on Qing Zhen's life even if she were to keep shooting at him.

A second later, the sniper rifle's muzzle swung over. It was aimed straight at Ren Xiaosu, who was on the roof. Ren Xiaosu sensed a trace of the girl's mischief behind the scope.

Ren Xiaosu panicked. 'Shouldn't you fucking be taking another shot after failing to complete your mission? Why are you aiming at me?!'

But Yang Xiaojin appeared to be very calm. She had failed, so whatever happened wasn't worth looking back on.

The rifle was fired with a cracking sound. But this time, there wasn't anything spectacular about the gunshot. This was because Ren Xiaosu stood there without moving, and the bullet didn't hit him either.

As Ren Xiaosu knew all about Yang Xiaojin's firearms proficiency, he knew she hadn't fired this shot to kill him. It was to draw a clear line between them in front of the Qing Consortium?

If it were really that, then wasn't this done too hastily?! Or could it be that she was just doing this out of spite for Luo Xinyu's sake?!

All of a sudden, Ren Xiaosu saw Luo Xinyu, who had just disappeared, appear on top of the skyscraper. She waved at Ren Xiaosu like she was greeting him before taking Yang Xiaojin's hand and bringing her into the shadow with her.

Ren Xiaosu was absolutely stunned by what he had seen this time. He looked at the top of the skyscraper that was now empty, then looked over at the numerous Qing Consortium's combat troops coming for him. 'You guys are just gonna leave like that? Aren't you gonna bring me along too?!'

Seeing the large force of the Qing Consortium's combat brigade approaching, Ren Xiaosu wanted to cry. 'You two may escape with your superpowers after attracting such firepower, but have you considered that you might be inconveniencing for others?!'

What a scam!

Honestly, Ren Xiaosu could never have imagined that Luo Xinyu and Yang Xiaojin were in on it together. Even Yang Xiaojin's assassination attempt on Qing Zhen didn't leave him so surprised.

At this time, Ren Xiaosu remembered the first time he met Luo Xinyu and how he had requested to switch Wang Congyang with someone else for the expedition. Back then, Luo Xinyu had secretly given Yang Xiaojin a look no one but Ren Xiaosu had noticed.
