Lin Nai pushed open the door with a wicked grin, singing as he walked out.
He left behind two naked men hanging from the ceiling, their eyes filled with terror.
After leaving the room, Lin Nai glanced around.
"It's really quiet. Those gang guys have disappeared too..."
Besides, cars couldn't even get in here, so no one could give him a burst of bullets.
Tap, tap, tap—
Footsteps approached.
Lin Nai turned to look.
The newcomer had short hair that seemed gray, though it was hard to see clearly beneath the hood.
The hood bore metal ornaments shaped like eyes.
It was impossible to tell what they resembled.
Her rose-red eyes had snake-like pupils, and there was a beauty mark at the corner of her left mouth.
She wore a predominantly black cloak with wine-red embellishments, her clothing reinforced with numerous belts.
Her left shoulder was adorned with feathers, her cuffs resembled bird wings, and both hands wore sharp wine-red finger guards.
"So, who are you?"
"A passing mercenary. Hmm... I didn't expect you to be out already."
"Hmm?"
Kiana: Crush Through Them Like a Storm!
"I didn't expect an unexpected person to show up. A mercenary? Are you here for me too?"
"Mm, just following my employer's orders."
The other woman nodded and pondered for a moment. "But I can tell my employer I arrived too late."
"Huh? Aren't you here to guard me?"
"Guarding you is their mission. I was never on their side to begin with."
That was what the woman before him said.
Lin Nai warily examined her a few times. He kept feeling that she looked a little familiar...
It felt like he had seen her somewhere before.
A mercenary, gray hair, a hood...
For some reason, an image appeared in Lin Nai's mind.
A woman pacing back and forth, running, and rolling around.
Finally, facing the setting sun, she shouted that no matter the cost, humanity would definitely defeat Honkai...
Ah...
Mm.
It was Raven.
There was an illustration here. It can be viewed after updating the app version.
"Oh, one more thing. You'd better go that way. There aren't any people over there."
"Ah... thanks."
"You're welcome."
Lin Nai looked at the person still standing in front of him. "Um... do you need something else?"
"Ahem... well, can I touch you?"
"Huh?"
Lin Nai's expression turned strange. "Hey, I'm not that easy!"
"Ahem... sorry..."
She immediately apologized. Mainly because she had never seen a child like this before; he gave off such an innocent, harmless feeling.
But when he fought, he was genuinely ruthless.
How should she put it?
He was completely different from how he felt.
Most importantly... she really had never seen a child like this before.
Her hands were getting a little itchy.
"Still, since you showed me the way, I'll let you touch me once."
Lin Nai definitely wasn't doing this just because she was an older woman!
Hmph!
Tsunderes had no market.
Lin Nai: Hey, hey, hey, I can't exactly say it out loud, can I? I have my pride.
Then it was fine.
"Thank you. Then I won't hold back."
Miss Raven extended her hand and gently stroked Lin Nai's head.
A satisfied smile appeared beneath her hood.
It felt so nice.
Lin Nai: ???
Was "felt nice" really something that could be used to describe this?
"Alright, once is enough. Don't push your luck." Lin Nai took a step back.
"Sorry, sorry."
"Then I'm leaving. Thanks, big sister." Lin Nai waved and headed down the path Raven had pointed out.
Raven, meanwhile, heard a ringtone and took her phone from her pocket.
"Hello?"
"Raven."
"Gray Snake? What is it?"
"Did it feel nice?"
"Huh? Huh?!" Raven's pupils contracted as she fearfully looked around.
She spotted a surveillance camera some distance away.
Her boss had discovered that she had slacked off at work and let the target go.
What should she do? Waiting online, urgent (I'm done for)!
Raven: I'm finished...
"Salary deduction."
"No!!"
Meanwhile, in the main hall.
A person dressed in a black hoodie with the hood up, green lines decorating the clothing, and the character "Martial" on the right hem sat on a sofa.
This person's body had been implanted with many cybernetic devices. His limbs and eyes were all bionic prosthetics.
He wore a white mask that exposed only his right eye, bearing a black pattern of two crossed daggers.
The exposed right eye flashed green before turning red.
"Hehe, um, Lord Gray Snake, regarding our deal..."
"Mm. You've already captured the person. This money is yours."
Gray Snake placed two cases on the table, filled with bundles upon bundles of cash.
The leaders of the three gangs all lit up!
So much money!
This was way too much!!
"However."
"Hmm?"
The three men were all stunned.
Gray Snake placed a revolver on the table. "There are two bullets in here. Only the one who survives can take the money."
"Huh? You—"
The hot-tempered Blythe abruptly stood up, about to say something, when a hole appeared in his head.
Blood slowly trickled down.
The bald, muscular man collapsed to the floor.
Gray Snake placed the revolver on the table. "There is still one bullet."
The other two leaders were completely terrified. They hadn't expected one of them to die in an instant.
That speed...
They would probably die here the moment they drew their guns.
"Because I only commissioned one person. But with this much money, it wouldn't be easy to split it three ways, would it?"
"This is for your own good, too."
Gray Snake produced a knife from somewhere. "Of course, you can also try. Within seven steps, is a gun faster, or is a knife faster?"
The two gang leaders were already trembling. One of them forced himself to pick up the gun.
But he didn't have the nerve to point it at Gray Snake.
That move just now had completely intimidated them both.
In the end, the two so-called leaders began their game of revolver roulette.
Lin Nai, who had somehow climbed to a high spot and was watching the scene, could only call it spectacular.
So this was the part where you guys turned on each other?
But only one person was going to die?
Lin Nai rested his cheek on one hand as he watched the somewhat mysterious person.
He couldn't even see the man's face.
So who was that guy?
He had arrived rather late. By the time he got there, he had only seen the two men begin their deadly game of roulette.
He hadn't heard a single thing from before that.
Should he go down and get involved?
Or should he go down and find a way to claim two kills?
Bang!!
