Chapter 7: Killing for Fun
Qiao An Tian's tense face gradually relaxed, after witnessing Lin Zi Xian's coming and going freely, the tension in his heart disappeared without a trace, instead having a feeling of participating in some kind of thrilling game, he started to look around, enjoying the scenery flying by outside the car window, but it made him feel a bit dizzy.
Just then, his phone rang in his pocket. He picked it up and connected, and Qiao Yun's anxious voice came from inside: "Dad! How are you?"
Qiao An Tian glanced at Lin Zi Xian who was driving in front of him and smiled: "With Mr. Lin's protection, I'm safe."
He paused for a moment and said, "The exit on the side of Minghua Mountain Villa is blocked, and it's likely that reinforcements won't be able to arrive in time. I'm currently on my way in a police car, and the police will arrive soon... The other party has made such thorough preparations, I suspect there is a traitor among us. Who else knew about your trip to Minghua Mountain Villa?"
The voice was very clear, and several people in the car heard it faintly.
Ning Lan's pale face bit her lip as she looked at Qiao An Tian, the news of going to Ming Hua Mountain Villa was known by her first, and it was also her who conveyed the message to prepare for the other side of Ming Hua Mountain Villa. She was naturally the number one suspect.
Qiao An Tian also took a look at her and replied: "Ning Lan can be ruled out, it should be the mountain villa that leaked the news, focus on investigating that side."
The person on the other end of the phone paused again, then said: "I know, Dad! You guys hold on, we'll definitely arrive within half an hour, bye..." and hung up the phone.
Looking at Qiao An Tian putting away his phone, Ning Lan's voice trembled as she said: "Thank you, Director Qiao......it really wasn't me!"
"I know, if I didn't trust you, I wouldn't let you be my assistant." Qiao An Tian said with a self-satisfied smile.
Suddenly, several people in the car leaned violently to one side as it charged into a desolate mountain path, startling everyone.
On the mountain road that was barely one car wide, branches and thorns scratched against the body of the vehicle with a loud rattling sound. Lin Zi drove as if performing acrobatics, the car tumbling and turning until it reached the foot of the mountain. In the mountain valley, he turned the car around and shouted to the others: "Quickly get out!" He grabbed an automatic rifle magazine from between the seats and got out first.
Three people got out of the car due to their trust in him. Who knew that Lin Zixian pointed at the bodyguard who came out and said, "You lure the firepower in the car, give me the rifle!"
He snatched the submachine gun from his opponent's hand and threw his own pistol and a clip of bullets at him.
"Are you not going to join them?" The bodyguard asked in surprise, referring to the other bodyguards who were blocking.
"That way they'll be in danger, attacked from both sides. I'll occupy the high ground on the mountain and snipe, while you use the armored vehicle's defense to counterattack below and lure them towards you." Lin Zixian quickly explained.
"Alright!" The bodyguard immediately retreated back into the car.
Lin Zi pointed to the mountain slope in front of him and said, "Let's hurry up."
Qiao An Tian followed him up the mountain without hesitation, Ning Lan was in a difficult situation, she was still wearing high heels, walking on the mountain path was troublesome, let alone climbing mountains, plus her short skirt was clinging to her two legs.
Lin Zixian had already rushed halfway up the mountain, but seeing her like this, he immediately ran back, regardless of shocking the world, and sat Ning Lan on his lap, quickly removing her two shoes, taking off the high heels, and then putting them back on her feet.
Ning Lang suddenly stood up, and Lin Zixian stretched out his hand to lift her skirt again, scaring her into a panic. In an instant, there was a "whoosh" sound, and the side of her short skirt was torn open, revealing half of one thigh and a small part of her buttocks.
She hadn't reacted yet, when Lin Zilei said 'go' and pulled her to run up the mountain slope. After running a few steps, Ning Lan finally came to herself, realizing that he was trying to relieve himself of the constraints of his short skirt, not take liberties with her.
Little did Lin Zixian know that he was afraid of unexpected events, and thought it was safest to bring the two with him, otherwise they would definitely let them stay in the armored car.
The three of them had just run to the top of the mountain when Lin Zixian turned his head back and saw that more than a dozen cars were speeding towards them on the mountain road not far away.
"Get down!" Lin Zi and Lang shouted in unison, having already dropped to the ground, using the cover of the weeds to take aim with their guns.
Qiao An Tian and Ning Lan also couldn't care about the dirt, and quickly knelt down.
From the top of this mountain, everything below is in plain sight. The distance from the slope to the highway is not far, about 100 meters or so, which is within the maximum killing range of an automatic rifle but out of range for a handgun.
As the leading car approached, Lin Zilei calmly aimed and pulled the trigger. With a loud "bang", the windshield of the distant car shattered, directly killing the driver.
The car veered off course and immediately crashed into the mountain wall on the opposite side, scaring the cars behind it to the point where they almost collided with each other.
Taking advantage of the dozen or so cars temporarily stopped, Lin Zilei 'bang bang' fired several shots in a row, each shot piercing through the car window and bursting out blood flowers.
"Their car is over there."
Someone discovered the inconspicuous mountain road and saw the cars parked at the foot of the mountain, shouting loudly.
The man in the suit who was crouching inside the car immediately crawled out from the other side, and upon seeing the car at the foot of the mountain across the way, he shouted: "Everyone rush out together, scatter and get close, grab him."
The boss gave the order, and more than 30 fugitives rushed out with a loud cry. The man in the suit hid behind the car without moving, and held back one of his trusted followers, shaking his head slightly to signal him not to take risks.
The woods on top of the hillside fired again, shooting several rounds in a row, with no misses, killing five people in a row. The magazine was empty and there were no more bullets.
"Don't move here." Lin Zixian said in a low voice, quickly rolling to the other side and taking the opportunity to replace another clip.
"They are on top of the mountain."
Someone discovered the sound of gunfire on the mountain top, and many people found it. They immediately fired their guns wildly at the mountain top with a loud noise. The handgun bullets were wasted, but the rifle bullets hit the mud on the mountain top with a "zhua zhua" sound. Ning Lan, who was lying on the mountain top, was so scared that she cried "wu wu".
She never dreamed that she would one day experience a hail of bullets, nor did she ever think that being an assistant to the chairman was such a dangerous profession.
Taking advantage of a burst of gunfire, the other side's gunshots suddenly stopped, and a group of thugs immediately rushed over. However...
"Bang... Bang... Bang... Bang... Bang... Bang!"
On the other side of the hill, the woods were quiet again, and then shots rang out, six in a row, six people fell to the ground, each shot hitting its mark with unerring accuracy, immediately frightening a group of people into crouching on the ground, not daring to move.
Ning Lan didn't dare to raise her head, but Qiao An Tian couldn't help but take a glance. After seeing the six people fall down with six gunshots, he turned his head and gave a thumbs up towards the woods, saying: "Good marksmanship!"
"A bunch of troublesome scum, not worth pitying even in death. Just kill them for fun." Lin Zixian chuckled and put down his gun, lying down on his side, pulling out a cigarette, lighting it up and blowing out smoke rings.
Qiao An Tian was speechless, what time is it now, still having the leisurely mood to smoke elegantly, don't you know that smoking will expose our target?
As expected, the bandits hiding at the foot of the mountain saw the smoke rising from the slope and fired their guns in this direction with a loud noise. Unfortunately, they only stirred up flying mud, but couldn't hurt Lin Zixian in the slightest. Lin Zixian simply raised his hand to cover his eyes, not letting the falling mud get into his eyes, and continued to breathe out clouds of smoke.
After suppressing the mountain slope, a group of bandits began to charge again. The bodyguards in the armored vehicle saw that the enemy had entered the shooting range and immediately stood behind the car door, firing their guns continuously, almost one shot at a time, with good marksmanship.
At the same time, he immediately attracted firepower concentrated on him.
Lin Zixian, upon hearing the sudden outbreak of gunfire, immediately shifted his attention, spat out the cigarette in his mouth, and swiftly flipped over to grab his automatic rifle. Kneeling on one knee, he seized the opportunity to unleash a rapid barrage of shots - "bang bang" - as bright cartridge casings flew out, instantly sending more than a dozen bandits crashing to the ground.
Lin Zi suddenly fell to the ground and quickly crawled back up to the top of the mountain, lying down beside Ning Lan and firing several more shots in a row. The empty shells with lingering smoke fell right in front of Ning Lan's eyes, scaring her into closing them tightly and silently shedding tears.
Upper and lower pincers, one fell dead so many people, the fierce ghost below was frightened, all crouched on the ground and didn't dare to get up.
Just then, the mobile phone in the pocket of the man in the suit hiding behind the highway car rang. As soon as he answered it, an anxious voice came from inside: "Li Ge, did you succeed? The police have arrived, we've withdrawn."
"Got it!" The man in the suit hung up the phone and shouted loudly towards this side: "Withdraw, withdraw quickly, the police are coming."
A group of henchmen had long wanted to run away, but were afraid of the boss's rules. When they heard the big boss shout "retreat", how could they not run? They immediately ran back desperately for their lives.
Lin Zixian immediately seized the opportunity to get up and kneel, 'bang bang' continuously firing several shots again, knocking down a number of people. Unfortunately, after a few shots, there were no more bullets, and the bodyguards' pistols below didn't have such a long range, so they could only watch as the remaining people drove away in disarray, otherwise they would have been able to kill even more.
As soon as the three of them stood up on the top of the mountain slope, Qiao Yun's phone came again, asking where they were. Qiao An Tian looked at the vehicles left on the road and smiled: "Where there are a few cars on the road." Then he hung up the phone.
At this time, the bodyguard also ran to the top of the mountain and saw that Qiao An Tian was fine, so he let out a sigh of relief. He looked at Lin Zixian with surprise and exclaimed: "Mr. Lin is very skilled, you can come to our special protection company as an instructor."
Lin Zile smiled silently, not speaking. For his experience, this was indeed a trivial matter not worth mentioning. Looking at the darkening sky, he handed over the gun in his hand and said: "Wipe my fingerprints off the gun, this has nothing to do with me, please help me make up a lie."
After finishing speaking, Lin Youyou lit a cigarette and walked down the mountain. Qiao Antian hastily asked: "Mr. Lin, where are you going?"
The woods on the hillside waved his hand and said, "My identity is not good to see the police, I don't want to cause any trouble... Director Qiao, rest assured, I will do what I promised, tomorrow I will go to work on time."
The three of them looked at each other in silence, and then he walked onto the highway and got into a car left behind by the thugs, started the engine, turned around and sped away.
On the mountain top, Ning Lan found that her buttocks were cool and she reached out to grab the torn place. She looked at the disappearing car shadow in the distance with an inexplicable expression, her face still wet with tears, but a thought flashed through her mind - this was a windy man, impossible to figure out.
At the sight of the scenery, I suddenly thought of a poem by Li Bai: Ten steps to kill one person, a thousand miles without leaving a trail, when the deed is done, wipe off the dust and go, deeply hiding one's body and name...
Before long, a fleet of police cars came rushing over, and a group of armed policemen jumped out of the olive green trucks to guard the surroundings. Qiao Yun got out of the police car and looked around, seeing three people standing on the mountain top at dusk, and hurriedly ran over...
