The night in city A was like hell on earth, with occasional screams echoing from a distance, as if the last lament before death.
Only the situation in the supermarket next to the abandoned building seemed somewhat out of place.
But the atmosphere was also extremely tense.
Because a man with a bright smile was pointing a gun at the two figures at the entrance.
Seeing this, the others in the supermarket also took out guns and pointed them at the two people at the door.
As if any movement from the two at the entrance would instantly trigger a rain of bullets towards them.
Danger and tension were spreading.
The man’s words “but he cannot” clearly referred to Ruan Qing.
So when Ruan Qing heard the man’s words, his body instinctively stiffened, his hair stood on end in an instant, and every cell in his body screamed to run.
The man was undoubtedly an extremely dangerous individual.
The wall that had just been hit still bore cracks, and in the corner lay the corpse of the scarred man, indicating the danger and power of the man.
At that moment, Ruan Qing was frozen in fear as the man pointed a gun at him, unable to move a muscle, his face turning pale as he stood in place.
His slender figure carried a hint of unease and helplessness.
Xie Xuanlan pulled Ruan Qing behind him and then asked in a low voice with a grim expression, “Yan San, what do you mean by this?”
Yan...?
Ruan Qing’s gaze paused slightly. Yan Ci also had the surname Yan, indicating that there was indeed a connection between these two.
“Nothing much.” Yan San withdrew the gun, twirling it between his fingers rapidly. The bat spun swiftly in his hand. “Just felt a bit unhappy about being caught and locked up by Captain Xie for several months.”
“So you want revenge on me?” Xie Xuanlan glanced sideways at the others, pointing their guns at him, speaking expressionlessly, “Do you think you can kill me?”
“How could that be?” Yan San raised an eyebrow, chuckling lightly. “Captain Xie, you’ve misunderstood.”
“I’ve already said it, Captain Xie, you can leave.”
Yan San looked at Ruan Qing, tilting his head slightly and revealing a bright smile. “But he cannot.”
Because Yan San’s hair was slightly long, a few strands fell down as he tilted his head, partially covering his eyes.
But even so, it couldn’t hide the danger lurking in the depths of his eyes.
He was like an extremely venomous snake, fixating on its prey.
Dangerous, dark, and chilling.
Yan San’s gaze made Ruan Qing’s scalp tingle. He nervously pursed his lips, avoiding Yan San’s gaze.
Ruan Qing lowered his gaze and noticed that he was still holding Xie Xuanlan’s hand. He loosened his grip slightly, intending to withdraw his hand.
If Xie Xuanlan chose to abandon him, he wouldn’t complain. After all, it was him that Yan San was after, and there was no need to drag Xie Xuanlan into this mess.
Moreover, in this situation, neither he nor Xie Xuanlan had any choice.
Survival was the priority.
And maybe this wasn’t the worst-case scenario.
Psychopaths typically didn’t aim to kill right away; it usually happened when their paranoia reached a certain level. He still had a chance to escape.
But Ruan Qing didn’t expect Xie Xuanlan to have no intention of letting him go. When he tried to pull his hand away, Xie Xuanlan’s grip tightened.
Ruan Qing hesitated and didn’t pull his hand away again.
Running outside to the supermarket was definitely not a wise decision because there was no cover outside, making them easy targets for the guns.
According to his initial plan, they still had a chance of winning.
After all, they were now at the entrance, very close to the power switch. They could reach it by simply climbing over the counter.
Ruan Qing tapped his index finger on the back of Xie Xuanlan’s hand, conveying his thoughts to him.
This time, Xie Xuanlan understood Ruan Qing’s plan. He glanced at the switch control not far from the counter.
It was indeed the best solution.
Yan San was stronger than most people, and he might be able to fend for himself in a one-on-one fight. But taking the young man along was definitely impossible.
He had vulnerabilities, while Yan San did not, which greatly limited him.
Moreover, there was also a group of people pointing guns at him and the young man. While he was immune to the guns, the young man wasn’t.
The thought of the young man getting hit by a gun was something Xie Xuanlan couldn’t bear to think about.
Xie Xuanlan withdrew his gaze, lightly tapping Ruan Qing’s hand with his fingers.
— After I tap three times, hug me tight.
Ruan Qing received Xie Xuanlan’s message and tapped his hand back, indicating acknowledgment.
Then he counted Xie Xuanlan’s signals in his heart.
One.
Two.
Three.
After Xie Xuanlan finished tapping, he instantly lifted Ruan Qing, who also cooperated by tightly wrapping his arms around Xie Xuanlan’s neck, trying his best not to lag behind.
After lifting Ruan Qing, Xie Xuanlan directly flipped over the counter, quickly turned off the supermarket lights, and then punched the switch, shattering it.
The supermarket instantly plunged into darkness, with only the staircase lights still on.
But the staircase lights were those non-glaring warm lights, completely insufficient to illuminate the entire supermarket, only faintly lighting up the entrance.
So, because the lights in the supermarket had just gone out, everyone was still adjusting, and all they could see was darkness in front of them.
Once someone realized what was happening, they instinctively aimed their guns in the direction of the counter, and upon hearing the sound of gunfire, others immediately followed suit.
“Bang!!!”
“Bang!!!”
“Bang!!!”
Yan San watched as people ran deeper into the supermarket and impatiently clicked his tongue.
He tidied up his hair that had fallen loose again, then glanced sideways at the person who had fired the gun. “Who told you to fire your gun?”
Although the man’s tone was very gentle and lacked any hint of danger or oppression, it still instilled fear in the person who had fired the gun.
Fear to the point where cold sweat began to bead on his forehead.
The bald man holding the gun couldn’t stop trembling. “I-I’m sorry, we thought...”
Before the bald man could finish his words, Yan San kicked him.
With a “bang!”, the bald man was kicked into the wall, but he didn’t die.
After the bald man fell to the ground, clutching his abdomen where he was kicked, he spat out a mouthful of blood directly.
The injury was extremely severe, so severe that the bald man couldn’t even crawl up.
But everyone present who knew the man understood that he had shown mercy.
Otherwise, the bald man would undoubtedly be dead.
Perhaps it wasn’t mercy from the man, but rather keeping him around because he still had his uses.
Yan San dragged a chair over, sat down with his legs crossed, facing the backrest of the chair, and then spoke lightly, “Go.”
“Find that person for me.”
After Yan San finished speaking, the others immediately ran towards the depths of the supermarket without daring to delay for a second.
Even the bald man was assisted by others to run towards the depths of the supermarket.
The light in the stairwell had long been blocked by the shelves in front of the supermarket, so the depths of the supermarket were pitch black, without a trace of light.
The darkness was unsettling, giving rise to endless danger and oppression.
damn now that yan san is here i bet yan ci is gonna come crawling back from hell. brother vs brother showoff
