"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The four shots rang out almost simultaneously, but if you didn't listen carefully, you could only hear two shots!

Liao Jingxuan was shot in the legs, hands, and limbs in an instant!

Yao Chunxiao got up from the ground, not even touching the dagger still stuck in his chest. Instead, he spat out the dust in his mouth and said dejectedly, "Brother Xiao, even after I gave you your name, they still dared to stab me. It was this guy who, that night, together with Lin Xiaohe, sank Lin Xiaokang into the sea. Ah Si and I saw it with our own eyes."

As Liao Jingxuan fell to the ground after being shot, a pile of bricks nearby suddenly collapsed with a crash, revealing Yao Chunxiao, whose face was half-skull-like. Ignoring Ah Shun's teasing, Yao Chunxiao walked three steps away from Liao Jingxuan, who had dropped his pistol and was lying on the ground. Instead of checking if Liao Jingxuan was dead, Yao Chunxiao fired two more shots into Liao Jingxuan's legs. Liao Jingxuan, unable to bear the pain, rolled and screamed in agony before finally saying, "A-Liu, your marksmanship has improved. This shot in the left leg just shattered this guy's kneecap."

Huang Liu got up from another pile of bricks and walked over. Without saying a word, he first dislocated Liao Jingxuan's jaw, then carefully checked the dagger, pistol, and other weapons hidden on his body. After confirming that timely bandaging would prevent death, he said to Yao Chunxiao, "Uncle Xiao, you and Yan Hung's men finish this up. I'm going back first. Damn it, I thought the people working for Lin Xiaohe were so capable. This kind of scum would be dead even if they had nine lives in Macau Street."

"Let's go, let's go." Yao Chunxiao said, and Ah Shun, who had been stabbed and got up, turned around with their pistols and pulled the triggers at the union members in front of the table.

Yan Hung, holding a pistol, walked down the stairs from the second floor, his face full of righteousness.

A series of gunshots rang out as Huang Liu turned to walk away. After the gunfire subsided, Yao Chunxiao threw his pistol next to the corpse of one of Liao Jingxuan's men and said to Yan Hung, "The Lin Family is truly inhuman. The union helped the workers collect debts, and they hired someone to shoot union members. Luckily, we two poor workers survived and can testify against the murderers."

Outside, sirens were blaring, and dozens of Uniformed Branch and plainclothes officers arranged by Yan Hung were rushing towards the scene.

Chapter 401 Night Is Coming

"This construction site belongs to Swire & Co.. All the prime locations in Hong Kong now belong to Foreign Devil. Even the leaders of the Construction Industry General Union were previously employed by Foreign Devil to control the workers. However, the recent Korean War has made Foreign Devil hesitant to invest in development, fearing it would be a waste of money. Construction has been temporarily halted, which is why these guys are a bit strapped for cash. Otherwise, a demonstration of a few hundred people like today wouldn't necessarily be enough to sway these union leaders backed by Foreign Devil real estate companies." Yan Hung checked whether the wounded union leader had completely died, and as if to bolster his own courage, he tried to start a conversation with Yao Chunxiao.

His feeling towards Yao Chunxiao and his group was that they should be kept at a distance, and it would be best to never meet them unless absolutely necessary. These people showed no emotional fluctuation when they killed, so Yan Hung tried to distract himself by talking about unimportant topics to avoid constantly feeling their ruthlessness.

"Lie down, lie down. Seeing you get up made me forget to finish you off. Remember who shot you. You're lucky you didn't die." Yao Chunxiao waved to Ah Shun, who had a dagger stuck in his chest, signaling him to lie down next to the corpses. He then picked up a pistol, waited for Ah Shun to lie down, and shot him in the abdomen Ah Shun. Before Ah Shun could writhe and cry out in pain, Yao Chunxiao kicked his companion unconscious.

After looking around to make sure there were no other problems, Yao Chunxiao tossed the gun back and said to Yan Hung, "I don't care if the dead were Foreign Devil or members of the Lin Family. I'm leaving first. You handle the rest."

"You've worked hard, Uncle Xiao." Yan Hung swallowed hard, looking at the unconscious Ah Shun: "Uncle Shun, will you be alright?"

"Getting him to the hospital to get his wound treated early won't kill him." Yao Chunxiao glanced at Ah Shun, then quickly disappeared into the darkness of the building before the police entered.

A dozen seconds later, A Yue, leading a dozen or so of Yan Hung's trusted plainclothes men, rushed in first, shouting, "Master Hung! Master Hung!"

"I'm here." Yan Hung stood at the scene, gun in one hand and hands on his hips, looking every bit like Police Force detective. He replied, "There were four murderers. I shot and killed three of them, and the other one exchanged fire with me while fleeing, and I shot him in all four limbs."

"Luckily Master Hung Xiong, you're wise and capable. You were worried that there might be follow-up activities after today's demonstration by the Labour Department workers, so you arranged for the brothers to keep watch in advance. Otherwise..." A Yue said, moving closer to Yan Hung, "The impact might have been even greater."

Yan Hung said to him, "When it comes to flattery, you're almost surpassing A Wai. Tell the brothers to do their jobs: check for survivors, and send any surviving murderers to get them bandaged up. I'll keep a close eye on him myself and make sure he doesn't get a chance to escape. I dislocated his jaw; I'll have the dentist pull out a few of his teeth and then put them back on."

After instructing A Yue to do his work, Yan Hung glanced at the other corpses, smelled the pungent stench of blood in the air, and turned to walk outside. Outside, it was completely dark, without a single ray of light.

At 3 p. m., outside On Lok Tea House in Sai Wan, Hong Kong Island.

"See that guy? That's Da Zui Cai Big Brother from Jordan with Wo On Lok, a famous Red Pole." Gao Lao Cheng pointed to Lin Xiao qia, who was getting out of the car, and the middle-aged man, bowing and scraping, came out of the teahouse in the distance and spoke to Hong Lai-sau and the photographer beside him.

Hong Lai-sau leaned back in the car seat, avoiding the photographer's lens, and said, "Ah Jun, take pictures of them, make sure they're clear."

"Click, click."

The photographer, Ah Jun, was already prepared. He was sitting in his car, pointing his camera at the teahouse and snapping photos of the two of them, quickly capturing the moment when Da Zui Cai met Lin Xiao qia.

Is that clear enough?

"Don't worry, Brother Xiu. I'm not as good as you cultured people when it comes to writing, but when it comes to taking news photos, hehe... if the photos aren't clear, I'll twist my head off and give it to you." Ah Jun said confidently to Hong Lai-sau, holding his camera.
