Chapter 482: Chapter 298: Has He Done All These Jobs? _2
Hu Daqiang also noticed this detail.
Shen Qianqian whispered, “So, we can basically judge that at that moment, Croney was ready to make his move, only Lin Chuan didn’t turn around to leave the elevator, disrupting his plan.”
“Right!”
Hu Daqiang’s opinion concurred with Shen Qianqian’s.
“So dangerous.”
Shen Qianqian silently clutched her heart.
She could imagine, under those circumstances, the contest of wits between Lin Chuan and Croney had reached an extreme level of detail.
A slight misstep would mean total defeat.
Especially knowing that Croney’s weapon was a Kimber pistol with a silencer, the moment Lin Chuan turned around, he might have been shot.
Hiss!
Shen Qianqian took another deep breath.
Even Elder Zheng had to admit Lin Chuan’s exceptional alertness.
He was becoming more and more interested in Lin Chuan.
Perhaps Croney’s assessment of Lin Chuan—globally recognized as the top assassin—wasn’t wrong?
Zheng Ming knew that every assassin, at the beginning, didn’t train how to kill the target but how to remain undetected by the target.
If an assassin was detected by their target ahead of time, the chances of the mission succeeding were very low.
Who could understand an assassin like this?
The answer was another assassin.
Only assassins truly understand other assassins.
This was similar to the saying “men understand men better,” such as which browsers men prefer to use or what apps they like for watching movies, and so on.
The surveillance footage continued playing.
Lin Chuan didn’t exit the elevator; he continued upward with it.
From the 30th to the 32nd floor.
The distance between these two floors was short, but it distinctly showed the subtle shifts between Lin Chuan and Croney.
Croney had stopped caressing the girl.
Lin Chuan’s gaze on Croney was more open and unadorned.
Moreover, there seemed to be a trace of a smile on his face.
“He’s not nervous?”
Zheng Ming hesitated briefly, then murmured softly.
Shen Qianqian also paused.
She understood Lin Chuan better than anyone.
She clearly saw in Lin Chuan’s half-smiling expression and those deep eyes a kind of eagerness, like the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent?
Shen Qianqian wasn’t sure anymore.
If that was true, it was utterly maddening.
Lin Chuan faced the “King of Killers from England,” not only without nerves but also wanting to test himself against him?
Shen Qianqian quickly shook her head, dismissing the thought.
Ding.
The elevator door opened again.
Now, it was the 32nd floor.
Oddly, Croney showed no intention of leaving the elevator.
Lin Chuan and Croney were at a standoff.
The contest between the two, at that moment, had reached an extraordinarily delicate point.
Zheng Ming and Hu Daqiang exchanged looks.
Both knew, whoever left the elevator would lose the initiative.
This was the same as the 30th floor when the elevator door opened; no one wanted to turn their back on the other, as that was undoubtedly a death sentence.
Shen Qianqian swallowed her saliva.
Who would move first?
Finally, Croney made his move!
He suddenly pushed the woman aside, directing her straight at Lin Chuan.
Strike first to gain the upper hand?
In front of the computer, watching the monitor were four people: Shen, Zheng, Hu, and Xia Qingqing.
All four tensed simultaneously.
“No wonder Croney lost,” Zheng Ming realized the moment he saw Croney make his move, and said with relief.
The rest, while watching the monitor, waited for Zheng Ming’s explanation.
