Little Healer realized Su Xiao might be an unusually powerful Tier Three Contractor, though she had believed everyone present was Tier Four.

• Su Xiao asked whether Little Healer had been teleported to District 21, and she wondered if he was a super-invincible Tier Three big shot.

Su Xiao learned from Little Mantou that Roger’s gun was in the Gunpowder Tavern, where powerful Lone Wolves and snipers were contesting it. He decided to head there with Little Mantou despite the danger.

• Su Xiao ordered Little Mantou to lead him to the Gunpowder Tavern, and she followed because of their contract.

Su Xiao drew the Lone Wolves away from the Gunpowder Tavern by attacking their Snipers, giving Bubu Wang a chance to take Roger's pistol. The theft sent dozens of contractors rushing into the tavern, where they blamed Lie, while Su Xiao faced their pursuit.

• Lie and a masked woman entered the tavern, followed by dozens of contractors, and the woman pointed to Lie as the first to arrive.
• Lie denied taking Roger's pistol and realized Su Xiao's attack had created an opening for someone else to steal it.

Lanzo used a bluff and a payment of two Large Soul Crystals to break the standoff in the Gunpowder Tavern after being framed for stealing Roger's Musket. As Lanzo, Mask, and Iron Tank escaped, a stealth-type Contractor attacked Babatre and took the Soul Crystals.

• Lanzo ordered Little Wildcat, Tank, and Bater to prepare to retreat, then had Iron Tank raise a shield to protect them from the Lone Wolves.

• Mask warned Su Xiao to run, but his savage expression made her realize she had enraged him.

Su Xiao fought Mask in the abandoned hospital, but a sniper’s intervention and the arrival of Lan Zuo and dozens of Lone Wolves turned the battle into a standoff over Roger’s gun. Lan Zuo offered Su Xiao a chance to team up and escape, but Su Xiao refused and faced the encirclement alone.
