95 Jing Ru (1/2)
”So this group is actually smart enough to employ a pair of eyes on a roof. Not to mention, the same roof I am standing on too. Colour me impressed.” A cat lady stretched its paws and Jing Ru could see a large duffel bag right beside her too.
”Well, what are we waiting for? I am kind enough to wait for you to draw your weapons.”Nyanmi spoke to Jing Ru the Giraffe as she drew her pistol from her holster and fiddled around with it. This was one of the monsters that Jin loaned from the system, and by using the stats of Meomi the werecat he captured, he modified it to become a sniper.
For Jing Ru, this was a predicament. She was a long-range marksman, not a close combat fighter. However, the cat was waiting for Jing Ru to draw her weapon before she fired. It might be a ruse but Jing Ru could only gamble if she was patient enough.
But why gamble when you are already prepared for it?
Jing Ru was wearing a long dress with safety pants and the choice of clothes was deliberate to hide her hidden pistol in case she needed to use it immediately. She pretended to drop her sack of items on the ground to search for a weapon.
However, Jing Ru was not stupid. She did not expect this to be a foolproof plan. That was why she purposely placed her sack near an exhaust vent so that she had the chance to take cover quickly if needed. Meeting her expectations, Nyanmi fired her pistol and Jing Ru immediately hid behind the vent but she was surprised the shot was not aimed at her but instead at a Panda Police Guard that casually opened the door to the rooftop without checking.
”I do not need extra company.” Nyanmi kept shooting at the door and the injured Panda Police fell back further before Nyanmi took out a detonator and pressed a button to ignite an explosive she had placed right beside the rooftop door.
Jing Ru could have taken that opportunity when Nyanmi was distracted to fire her shot but she was more concerned about the Panda policeman who received the shot. The stairway leading to the rooftop collapsed and all Jing Ru could hope for was that the policeman was fine.
”Well, no more distractions. Let's fight.” Nyanmi took out a new pistol clip to reload and that was when Jing Ru fired her Glock air pistol she took from her sack. To Jing Ru's surprise, the reloading was a ruse as there was still a remaining bullet in Nyanmi's gun. The shot barely missed Jing Ru while her shot was nowhere near Nyanmi.
This gave Nyanmi the advantage to press forward and attack as she reloaded. Meanwhile, Jing Ru panicked in this turn of events but she immediately took a deep breath and tried to run away from the exhaust vent as she gave some retaliation fire.
”Hahaha, it is so nice to play with my food.” Nyami laughed as she jumped over the exhaust vent to where Jing Ru was previously hiding. What she did not know was that Jing Ru placed a claymore behind before she left.
”BOOOOM.” The claymore surprise attack was successful and Nyanmi was thoroughly injured with pieces of the exhaust vent piercing her skin.
