Chapter 398: Kaboom-I

All attention fell straight to the man who yelled in discovery of the bomb. Taking the advantage, Wang Li Lei ran, hiding to a different wall in the same room to take shelter as gunshot filled the room. There was currently fourteen enemy inside the building. They were at the third floor where there was five windows built on the wall along the corridor of the room. From the five windows, bullet pierced the glass that barley covered the window with age that had taken the few shards to create holes everywhere.

Many of the enemy was unguarded at the time and failed to protect themselves. The man with blue eyes glared at Wang Li Lei, finally noticing he had been planning for this! The man ran to take Zhao Min but the sniper who was in Wang Li Lei's side was quick to fire bullets at him.

The man clicked his tongue and roared. "Take shelters!" But only four of them could make it out alive. The person who had took the trunk who was the same person who had greeted Wang Li Lei when he first entered and his friend who was beside him and another two men who was able to survive the attack by taking shield from his comrades' body.

While the enemy was kept busy, Wang Li Lei pulled Zhao Min's chair and his daughter's chair. It took him an effort to pull the two chairs with people at a high speed amongst the attack to a safer place. He pulled the black trunk he brought with him earlier, opening the two lock, it was his silver guns and knifes. Using the knife, Wang Li Lei cut Zhao Min's daughter's rope first. When he was done with both her wrists and ankles, he passed the knifes to her. "XiXi?" He asked with his eyes brooding to inspect how her body was in a state of terror.

"XiXi." He called her name again and the girl looked up with her eyes drenched in tears. Her knees were weak and it was almost impossible for her to make a run but she needed to know.

"Y-Yes?" asked Xi Xi as she sobbed.

Good she could still talk, thought Wang Li Lei. Most people who had been beaten would be too scared to speak or think but XiXi seemed to be capable of communicating. "Your father will need your help." Wang Li Lei took the knife and brought it to her hand, "You will have to cut the rope in his hand and wake him up. When he woke up, tell him to get away from here. Remember we only have nine minutes." until the bomb went off, added Wang Li Lei to his mind after making sure to omit the words. In her situation, adding fear would only make her stiffen more.

XiXi crooked her brows, "A-Alone?" she asked.

"With your father. And yes alone take this knife if you need it. The safest route is to go down, there should be no enemy there and when you did, my subordinates would come to you." XiXi was in a mess to hear Wang Li Lei's words, nevertheless, she could managed to think.

"Good." Wang Li Lei released the knife. XiXi was a normal girl however she was Zhao Min's daughter. "Now!" He instructed and XiXi quickly cut off her father's rope while Wang Li Lei dashed out of the cornered wall to fire off his gun. First he shot the two men who followed the head of the group. Then he swiftly grasped firm his left gun to shot the other two men who was near at the bomb. As they were afraid of getting blown to meat pieces, they were fast to make a run from the bomb only to result of their deaths. His two shot to kill the men succeeded and the other only succeeded to wound one of them while killing the others.

"Shit!" The head cursed in a foreign language. He reloaded his gun behind a wall and stick his face to the wall to watch faintly where Wang Li Lei was and pulled his trigger to shoot. Wang Li Lei dodge the bullets. Unlike the other people he fought with earlier, it was clear that the foreigner man had a sharper aimed with his gun.

"You **ing planned for everything! Those men outside and the bomb!" The man yelled, his pronunciation was hard to catch but Wang Li Lei didn't miss his words. "From where the f** did you make that damned bomb?!" He was sure that trunk was filled with money. Eighteen Million to be precise. It was the money he should have received from Tang Guanyu for securing the murder weapon. How could the money now turn to the deadly bomb with timers that would set off the building to debris?!

Wang Li Lei took one shot to the wall where the man hid himself behind. At first he thought with the age, the wall would crumbled but it was firmer than her thought that one bullet could only make a scratch.

"The bomb wasn't from me." Wang Li Lei replied, "It was from the same person who had hired you to kill and also the person who offered you payment." He clicked his tongue, "You've friended a wrong person and this is what you get. Death. If only you chose a better person to recruit you. Perhaps you wouldn't find such a bad luck." Wang Li Lei spoke as if there was sympathy when his tone was void from any emotions.

At that point the man who was wounded had been trying to stealthily aimed at Wang Li Lei when he felt something pierced his chest and stared down at his body to collapse in a loud thud on the ground.

The Russian Man stopped still at his spot, cursing with every fiber of his body at Tang Guanyu who planned to kill him and Wang Li Lei in one place. He had seen Tang Guanyu as someone who would be easy to pressured but now he was walking on a tight rope because of the same man. The Russian man huffed his angry breaths, swearing to kill Tang Guanyu after killing Wang Li Lei and his face which was facing the wall with his back lifted up and down the place, finding anything that could be used to fight back Wang Li Lei when he noticed a glimmering piece of mirror that was blown when it come to touch with the bullets earlier. His grin became wide when he found his opportunity.

"Let's make a deal, Mr. Wang." the Russian Man spoke, malice finding its way.
