164 The Qing Consortium is too petty! (1/2)

Luo Lan was still quite famous in Stronghold 113 and would often attend public events such as ceremonies and galas. The private troops would then assume the role of security personnel at such events. So Xu Xianchu had seen Luo Lan before.

But Xu Xianchu was a little stunned. He could never have expected to encounter Luo Lan at this place! But he quickly realized there was an inevitable connection behind this seeming coincidence.

The time Xu Xianchu chose to infiltrate Stronghold 109 was when the private troops were laziest in carrying out their inspection duties. Hence, many people usually chose this time frame to smuggle items into the stronghold.

Currently, the Qing Consortium could only rely on smuggling to transport firearms into the stronghold controlled by the Li Consortium. So by stowing away in a vehicle that was used for smuggling, he ended up meeting Luo Lan, who was just receiving a batch of smuggled firearms.

But surely this truckload of firearms would be enough to launch a small-scale battle, right? Was the Qing Consortium going to attack Stronghold 109?!

The most difficult thing for Xu Xianchu to accept was that he got recognized at a glance even when his face had already become so dirty!

In that instant, Xu Xianchu jumped out of the container. He kicked Luo Lan in the chest and ran out onto the street. The Qing Consortium's troops would not be able to react yet. If he did not get away at this moment, he might not be able to escape from them later on.

After getting kicked, Luo Lan groaned and fell to the ground. He did not forget to yell to the people around him as he lay on the ground, ”Hurry up and catch him! We must capture him no matter what! That's Xu Xianchu!”

The Qing Consortium's troops immediately unholstered their guns that were already fitted with silencers and chased after him like a pack of hunting dogs!

Xu Xianchu, who was fleeing up ahead, was frightened to death when he looked back. Although he had a shadow clone that could shield him from bullets, it would not work if too many shots were fired at him!

Xu Xianchu was very puzzled. He had only been a little curious about the secret of the Jing Mountains back then. However, he had not trespassed into the perimeter the Qing Consortium had set up. Could they get any pettier than this?!

As they made a mad rush through the streets, the Qing Consortium's troops did not dare to shoot freely. Even if their guns were equipped with silencers, they would still cause quite a bit of noise if the bullets hit any surface. They would probably have to retreat into the sewers again if the Li Consortium's combat troops were alerted.

The position where Luo Lan and his men were stationed was not too far away from Ren Xiaosu's shop. So Xu Xianchu and his pursuers arrived at the door of the shop after running for just a few kilometers.

Ren Xiaosu had been alarmed by the commotion outside. He furtively raised the roller shutter door and watched what was going on. But suddenly, a figure ran past the door. Ren Xiaosu looked in the direction of where it came from and was surprised to see more than ten troops in their black uniforms chasing after whoever had just run past.

Wait a minute, weren't those troops from the Qing Consortium?

After the troops had also run past the shop, Ren Xiaosu raised the roller shutter door and saw the last person, Luo Lan, running over while panting. Ren Xiaosu laughed. ”Who are you chasing after?”

”Xu, Xu Xianchu!” Luo Lan panted as he said, ”Ren Xiaosu, I will pay you 100,000 yuan if you get Chen Wudi to help me capture Xu Xianchu!”

Ren Xiaosu froze. So that was fucking Xu Xianchu earlier? Why did he come to Stronghold 109?!

He asked with a strange expression, ”Are you sure it's Xu Xianchu?”

”Yes! It's definitely him!” Luo Lan confirmed.
