Chapter 145 - 143: Stress Response
Qin Lan said he didn’t hit them, it was she who did, out of goodwill. After all, as a special police officer and sniper, this wasn’t the first time her hands were stained with blood. It was part of her job.
However, Chen Xin was different. He was not a soldier or a police officer. He was just an online writer, an ordinary civilian, and his hands had never been stained with blood.
But such lies meant nothing to Chen Xin.
Qin Lan might have thought that in the darkness, Chen Xin couldn’t see clearly what was happening, but in the upgraded tactical goggles’ night vision, everything was so clear. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to describe it as vivid.
With the tactical goggles’ additional magnification, zoom, and focus functions, Chen Xin could almost say he saw the bullets he fired pierce into the heads of the three deceased, shattering them like smashing a watermelon, taking away most of their brain matter, and their skulls collapsed like deflated bags.
The bloody and shocking scene greatly shook Chen Xin to the point that it took him a while to come back to his senses.
Although he had seen headshot scenes in various films and played at least a thousand such kills in various games, neither movies nor video games could ever show the audience or players the most realistic headshot scenes because they were simply too gory.
So even though Chen Xin didn’t think he lacked endurance and had seen headshots before, he was still terrified by the three burst watermelons, trembling all over.
Fortunately, they weren’t far from the city bureau, and after Qin Lan called for reinforcements, a nearby patrolling police car soon arrived.
The arriving officers were also taken aback by the scene in front of them. Three headshot kills—this wasn’t a scene from a game. In reality, this city had never seen such a brutal and bloody scene except during wartime.
