Fire

"Ah!"

Yan Shan screamed. Although he closed his eyes in time, some of the lime still got into them.

He lost his vision and retreated in a panic, swinging his fists wildly, trying to stop Su Ti from taking the opportunity to attack.

But Su Ti had no intention of going forward. He directly retreated to the side, picked up a bottle of high-proof foreign wine, and smashed it hard at Yan Shan.

Yan Shan heard the sound of the wind and subconsciously threw a punch. As a result, the wine bottle was shattered by his punch, and the wine was poured all over him.

"Ah ah ah!!"

Wisps of white smoke rose from Yan Shan's face. Yan Shan screamed even more miserably. This was quicklime that Su Ti had specially grabbed from a construction site. It would heat up when it met water, releasing a high temperature of several hundred degrees.

Yan Shan's face was instantly scalded by the high temperature, he lost his vision, and he swung his fists and roared wildly, like a beast in despair. But this was not over yet.

Su Ti took out a lighter from his arms again and threw it at Yan Shan.

Bang!

Yan Shan, who was already soaked in high-proof foreign wine, instantly turned into a man of fire in his upper body, screaming in pain!

This became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Yan Shan's will could no longer bear this pressure and he completely lost his mind!

He charged around the private room like a madman, and everyone avoided him in fear.

Only Su Ti rushed forward with a stride and threw a punch.

At this time, Yan Shan had been burned by the flames and lost all resistance. He seemed crazy, but in reality, he was completely disorganized. Therefore, Su Ti's punch was not blocked at all and hit Yan Shan's chest squarely.

With a crack, Yan Shan's ribs collapsed, a large section of his chest instantly caved in, his legs flew up, and he flew backward, hitting the wall of the private room heavily, then slowly sliding down and slumping to the ground.

Blood gushed from his mouth, and the flames sizzled on his body, but Yan Shan remained motionless, completely silent.

He was dead.

As soon as Yan Shan died, Su Ti immediately turned his attention to Li Mingyuan.

Li Mingyuan screamed when he saw this. At this time, with Yan Shan down, all the men in black suits in the room were also rolling on the ground, and no one could protect him.

In extreme fear, he fumbled in his clothes with both hands and actually pulled out a silver pistol.

Gun control in Xiya Country is extremely strict. Even the gangsters use gray-area stun guns. The fact that Li Shao could get a pistol for self-defense shows how resourceful he was.

"Don't come over! Don't come over!"

This gun was Li Shao's last means of self-defense and had already been loaded. He only needed to flip the safety to shoot!

But at this time, his hands were shaking with fear, and he almost couldn't hold the gun steady, but it seemed he was lucky. With a random flick, the safety was actually opened!

Bang!

The gun fired, but it did not hit Su Ti.

Because before Li Shao fired, Su Ti had kicked over the wine table in front of him.

The heavy marble wine table flew up and blocked Su Ti. The bullet exploded sparks on the tabletop, then bounced off, flying to who knows where.

This shot scared the hostesses into screaming and quickly lying on the ground, while Li Shao, who was sitting on the sofa, had no time to dodge. With a bang, he was hit squarely by the table weighing over a hundred catties.

He was like someone hit by a car, almost flattened, in excruciating pain, and let out a painful whimper.

Su Ti still felt it wasn't enough and kicked the tabletop. The marble tabletop was sealed with tempered glass on the outside, and its hardness was enough to be bulletproof. Su Ti's full-force kick only created slight cracks and did not shatter the table.

However, even so, Li Shao was not feeling well. He was sandwiched between the table and the sofa, taking the full force of Su Ti's kick. With a crack, his arms were completely broken with this kick, and his ribs were also broken in who knows how many places with a crackling sound.

Su Ti used both arms to lift the tabletop and saw Li Shao, whose body was already somewhat deformed.

He couldn't even speak at this time, and blood gushed out of his mouth as soon as he opened it. There was no longer the contempt and arrogance he had shown towards Su Ti in the underground boxing ring before. His eyes were full of fear and pleading.

"He's not dead yet?"

Su Ti was a little surprised, then his whole body's strength exploded, and he lifted the hundred-catty marble tempered table and smashed it at Li Shao!

Slap!

Blood splattered, as if he had smashed a tomato hard. However, even so, Li Shao still had some movement. His body was twitching slightly, reflexively.

Seeing that he was not dead, Su Ti lifted it up and smashed it again, smashing it four or five times in a row. A large area of blood had exploded where Li Shao was sitting, and then he dropped the table with a bang.

At this time, Li Shao was completely bloody and unrecognizable, almost flattened by a circle, and stuck to the sofa. Someone would believe it if you said he was hit by a truck while leaning against the wall.

Having avenged himself, Su Ti scanned the surroundings and kicked the temples of the few black-suited men who were moving, completely kicking them to the ground motionless.

With his current leg strength, kicking someone's temple, a vital point, with a soccer kick would kill them with one kick.

Anyway, these black-suited men were also helping Li Shao do evil, accomplices in kidnapping and killing innocent pedestrians, so Su Ti simply killed them all.

As for the KTV hostesses who witnessed his violent killing, were too scared to even scream, covered their mouths tightly, and huddled in the corner, Su Ti didn't even look at them, pushed open the door of the private room, and walked out.

After walking out of the main door, Su Ti did not stop. He had already thought of a way out.

Li Shao's VIP private room was on the top floor of Great Wealth KTV, where few people usually came. There was only one elevator outside the corridor, and the fire escape had been locked.

In addition, the sound insulation of the private room was originally top-notch, and there were no cameras, so no one discovered that Su Ti had caused such a big commotion.

Su Ti first took the elevator to the third floor, came to a utility room, and in the innermost part of the utility room was an unconscious waiter whose clothes he had taken off. Su Ti bypassed him, took the clothes he had left here, changed into them, and then went downstairs to leave.

He left quietly all the way, and no one noticed.

After leaving, Su Ti deliberately chose small paths without surveillance cameras, changing clothes several times along the way. By the time he appeared downstairs at his home an hour later, he had completely changed back into his original outfit.

Returning home, it was already 1:30 AM. The living room was pitch black, and his parents were already asleep.

Before taking action, Su Ti had specifically sent a message to his parents saying that he was eating barbecue with friends outside and might be back very late. Therefore, although he returned late, it did not cause any worry.

Back in his room, Su Ti took off his mask, stripped off his clothes, and lay heavily on the bed, letting out a deep breath.

Although the entire process, from preparing various props, to sneaking into Great Wealth KTV, knocking out the waiter, changing into his clothes and posing as a waiter to infiltrate, launching a sudden attack, killing, and then escaping, was done cleanly and efficiently, it was indeed Su Ti's first time doing something like this.

It wasn't until he returned home that the weight in his heart finally lifted, and he felt a sense of relief.

Looking at the ceiling, Su Ti's gaze was distant.

Logically speaking, a normal person who had done such a big thing would be filled with anxiety and excitement, both fearful and thrilled. They would worry about their actions being exposed to the police, and also worry about retaliation from Li Shao's forces. They would also constantly think about whether they had missed anything, and so on, unable to sleep all night.

But Su Ti didn't have too many such concerns or feelings. At first, he was a little nervous, but after feeling the powerful strength in his body, he didn't worry about anything. He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, Su Ti got up and washed up, and heard his father's voice in the living room.

"Great Wealth KTV's top floor caught fire, seven people died overnight, and the KTV's largest shareholder also died in the fire... Tsk tsk tsk, so fire safety awareness is really important. Hey, Mom, I think we should install a fire extinguisher at home too."

"Fire extinguisher? I think the biggest fire hazard in this house is you. You start smoking first thing in the morning, it's suffocating."

Under Su's Mother's complaints, Su's Father chuckled and put out his cigarette. He had been smoking for many years and had quit several times at the urging of his family, but each time only lasted a few months. The most recent time was only two weeks, but in the past few days, he had shown signs of relapsing.

Su Ti sat down at the dining table, picked up the newspaper Su's Father had put down, and saw that it was the Mingguang City Daily. The headline reported the fire at Great Wealth.

If it were an ordinary person, they might really think it was a fire, but he was the one who did it yesterday. As the person involved, how could he not know? It was 100% murder and a criminal case.

Su Ti put down the newspaper and thought to himself.

There are two possibilities. One, the police deliberately released false information to catch the killer and appease the public, but this possibility is small. Such a serious case of malicious nature cannot be suppressed at all. So, it's the second possibility...

The forces behind Li Shao deliberately suppressed this matter, calling the intentional murder a fire, and suppressing this matter. The purpose of doing this is most likely to handle it themselves.

This outcome was not unexpected by Su Ti.

As the saying goes, "jianghu matters are settled in the jianghu." Li Shao and the forces behind him were gangsters and could not withstand investigation. For the safety of their own forces, and also for the sake of their own forces' face and reputation, they had to handle this matter themselves.

Although Su Ti had done it flawlessly on the police side, he had left a big flaw on Li Shao's side.

Those KTV hostesses were fine, they didn't see Su Ti's face the whole time. The flaw Su Ti left was killing the two men in black who went to arrest him.

The men in black disappeared first, and then Li Shao was killed. Although there was no direct evidence, after clarifying the cause and effect, Su Ti was the biggest suspect!

It wouldn't be long before the forces behind Li Mingyuan discovered the disappearance of the two men in black, and they would follow the clues to find Su Ti.

Therefore, although Su Ti killed Li Mingyuan, the organizer, the matter did not end there. Instead, it brought him greater trouble!

This was something Su Ti had anticipated before taking action.

But he didn't regret it. From the fact that Li Mingyuan sent people to track and try to catch him yesterday, it could be seen that Li Mingyuan would definitely not let him go easily. With Li Mingyuan's lawless personality, who committed crimes everywhere in Mingguang City, if he sent people to catch him the first time, even if he failed, there would definitely be a second and third time. Once this kind of second-generation gangster felt that his dignity had been insulted, he would not give up just because Su Ti was difficult to deal with. Even if he couldn't catch Su Ti, he might even target his family as a threat. This was a very common tactic for such dark forces.

Therefore, he decisively took action, striking hard before Li Mingyuan could react and make a move, going straight for the kill. Even if it would cause greater trouble, he would not hesitate.

"I'm full, I'm going out."

After quickly finishing breakfast, Su Ti put down his bowl and chopsticks and walked towards the door.

His gaze was steady, without much panic. He had already thought about his current situation before taking action. Now he seemed safe, but in reality, he had stirred up a big mess. So, he had to find a protective umbrella before the other party's forces made a move.

"This child, he's never home every day, I don't know what he's doing outside. You should talk to him sometimes. Wasting the summer vacation like this is not good. Let him find something to do."

Looking at Su Ti's back, Su's Father grumbled discontentedly.

Su's Mother rolled her eyes at him.

"If you want to say it, you go say it. Our son just had an accident, and you won't even let him play for a few days."

"I'm full, I'm going out to practice Kendo."

Su Ling said, and also hurried out the door, closing it with a bang.

Su's Father's face bloomed with a smile.

"Slow down, daughter. Look, our daughter's body has indeed become much stronger after practicing Kendo. She even runs faster."
