14 Who Are You...? (1/2)

Cha Cha.

With a loaded gun in hand and the offender presented in front of her, Miss Guan aimed the weapon at the guard's head, asking imperiously as she pointed at Wuxing, ”Tell me, who asked you to kill this guy?”

Feeling the cold barrel of the pistol touching his forehead, the green-eyed guard's body shuddered. When Long Qing came to take him away, he already thought that he will be saved but now he was back in the situation without a way out.

He anxiously recalled the words Long Qing told him just a second ago.

'I already sent the money. If you rat me up, they will die instead.'

Thinking that he already went this far for his family that he definitely couldn't stop anymore, the green-eyed guard decided to stick to his version. ”I-I didn't do anything wrong! I was only doing my duty. He didn't want to surrender and I warned him that I will shoot if he doesn't surrender, yet he didn't move. I could only follow the protocol and pull the trigger...”

Miss Guan unlocked the safety lock on the gun and cut him off. ”I don't have time for this bullshit. You either tell me or else, I will also pull the trigger just like you did before. Unlike you, I'm strictly following protocol. I gave you a clear warning, and lying to a person of the higher standing is your offence.”

She then turned to the leader of the guards. ”How many bullets did he shoot?”

”Reporting, he shot five times in total and of those five, at least two were aimed at the prisoner's head.” Then, he firmly added, ”Miss Guan, the wounded prisoner didn't move the whole time and from what I have seen, his actions couldn't endanger other people. Even if he did try to resist, which in fact he didn't, the prisoner should have been shot at the limbs to incapacitate him.”

He could see that Wuxing was someone important from the Chief Warden, based on the officer's reaction earlier. Miss Guan was also an element he took into consideration. No one knew who she was, but her influence in the prison was at the top of the shelf. She was obviously siding with the prisoner…

”Okay, five shots it is, then. If you don't tell me what I want, I will also shoot five bullets into your body. Patients are waiting, don't ask me to wait.”

The lady doctor showed them an evil smile as if she was almost impatient to pull the trigger of the gun.

”You can't just kill me! That would make you a murderer! I didn't do anything against the rules. I am a patrol guard here!” the green-eyed man cried out in panic.

”What does the new warden think we should do with him?” Miss Guan was smiling, but her eyes were glaring at Long Qing. Seeing the guard didn't want to talk, she could only use Long Qing to make him talk. She hoped that Long Qing ends up as stupid as she thinks he is.

Unfortunately, he didn't follow her plan and said with a frown, ”I think that we should investigate first before we jump into any conclusions. Killing him right now would be unfair to him.”

It definitely didn't work well with her plans, so she ignored him. The way he put it made her look bad instead, but Miss Guan didn't mind that. She didn't have to worry about anyone's opinions and could do just what she thought was right.

”So, are you going to tell me who hired you or not?” the cold beauty asked for the third and last time. She didn't have time to play with idiots anymore as she had to take care of Wuxing's wounds.

With Long Qing backing him, the green-eyed guard still decided to stick to his original story in the end. He said as he gritted his teeth. ”There is nothing to tell. No one hired me to do anything.”

”Too bad, then,” Miss Guan sighed and didn't hesitate anymore to pull the trigger.
