"Kenny!"
"Wall!"
"Manuel?"
The hunchback raised his voice and called out the names of his three men, but no one answered outside.
It wasn't until half a minute that there was another knock outside the back door.
"Play the devil." The old man with a hunchback gave a sneer. He didn't say any more nonsense. He pulled the trigger directly and shot all the bullets in the pistol. This time, the other party really lifted a stone and hit his own foot. If he didn't do it, the old man with a hunchback really didn't know where he was. But now the knock on the door is tantamount to exposing his position, and the thin board is not there at all I can't stop the bullets pouring out.
But in the blink of an eye, the hunchback man shot out the bullet nest of a pistol. When the white smoke from the muzzle of the gun dispersed, there was no movement outside.
The hunchback threw the pistol to Matthew, which was no longer loaded. At the same time, he said, "go, open the door and see what's going on outside."
Matthew hesitated for a moment. He knew that the hunchback was trying to use him as a bait, but seeing the latter turn the gun to his wife, he could only pick up the bullet free pistol, lift the kerosene lamp on the table and walk outside.
Jane is now regardless of her own safety, quickly ran to her daughter, looked at her injured hand, and then opened the cabinet to find gauze can be used to wrap.
Wendy, however, endured the pain, glancing at the shadow under the cupboard from time to time. She hid her shotgun bullets there, hoping to find a chance to load them into the gun.
But the next moment, the old man's words shattered her last fantasy, "honey, you'd better not make any small moves, or it won't be your hand that gets hurt. Now, kick me the shotgun."
Wendy can not but reluctantly kick the shotgun on the ground.
The hunchback stepped on it with his left foot, then turned his head and looked at Matthew, who came to the gate. The latter took a deep breath and opened the door full of bullet holes.
Outside, there was no gunfire.
"How's it going? Did you see his body? " Asked the hunchback.
"No, there are only three bodies outside. They are all your men." Matthew.
"Where's the blood?"
Matthew pushed the kerosene lamp forward again. "Well, I don't know. There's a lot of blood on the ground, but it seems your people left it too."
"Well, then I'm afraid I'll meet him myself." The hunchback old man smelled the words, but he didn't look the same. "It's just that I haven't moved my muscles and bones for a long time."
As a result, as soon as his voice fell, the long lost gunshot rang out again, smashing the kerosene lamp in Matthew's hand. The hunchback old man's reaction was quick, his ears moved, and immediately caught the direction of the gunshot, rolled to the door, and shot there.
The next moment, however, a figure flashed past the window and smashed another kerosene lamp in the room.
The room then sank into darkness.
The hunchback kicked over a table as a cover, grabbed Wendy's mother, leaned back, and yelled out the door.
"And then? Without light, I can't see you, but you can't see me, and I still have hostages on my hand. It seems that we are in a deadlock now. In that case, why don't we have a chat? "
After a pause, the hunchback asked, "who are you and what is your relationship with the Matthew family? Why do you care about it? "
“…………”
The door was still quiet, and the visitors seemed determined not to speak.
The hunchback didn't like it and continued, "well, let me tell you what will happen next You killed three of my men. To be fair, I should have killed the hostages, or We can also settle this dispute in a gentlemanly way. How about me and you one-on-one? Your shooting is good, and I'm just an old man. We fight, and you have a great advantage. As long as you kill me, you can save the family. "
“…………”
"Tut Tut, it seems that you don't like to talk, but it doesn't matter. I'm a patient person. I'll give you half a minute. If you don't talk in half a minute, I'll kill the woman in my hand."
As soon as the room fell into the darkness, Wendy squatted down for the first time and groped on the ground with pain. She didn't know who was coming from outside and whether she was the opponent of the hunchback old man. However, it was never her style to place her hope on others.
After a while, she found the cartridge box under the cabinet, and then crawled to the direction of the shotgun.
Along the way, she not only had to look for the gun, but also had to be careful to avoid the debris on the ground and try not to make any noise. The difficulty was probably only known to her. However, when she finally found the shotgun and wanted to fill it in, there was a gunshot in her ear.
Wendy stayed where she was.
Her spirit has been highly nervous, and the concept of time has been confused for a long time. I don't know how long it will be, whether it is half a minute or not. I just feel that some warm liquid splashes on my face.Until the light comes back on.
Only then did she see the scene in front of her. What she was most worried about didn't happen. Although her mother looked frightened and trembled, it didn't seem to matter. On the contrary, the hunchback old man beside her had a gun on his head and fell into a pool of blood.
What splashed on her face just now was the blood of the hunchback old man, perhaps mixed with some brains.
At the stairway on the second floor, Zhang Heng takes back his gun.
At the same time, I also got two system prompts. One is about the main task, and the other is the 30 point game points I received after killing the hunchback old man.
The second half of the main task is to find the lucky horseshoe. Zhang Heng met the old cowboy before, and then met Matthew and the old man with a hunchback. He gathered all the three remaining lucky horseshoes, and this part of the task was completed.
In fact, this task is not as difficult as expected. Strictly speaking, it doesn't even need to go through any fighting, just need to find three people. However, in fact, it is very unlikely that cook and his cook gang will not fight.
Zhang Heng looked at Wendi who was still in a daze downstairs and said to her, "it's OK."
Wendy smell speech but as if did not hear the same, still dead holding the shotgun in hand, pointing to the ground cook's body.
Zhang Heng went downstairs and came to the girl. He held the barrel of the gun in one hand and carefully broke Wendy's fingers in the other. "Well, it's OK. He's dead. There should be few people left in Cook's gang. Sheriff Dolan is chasing the rest with his hands. Your family is safe."
