Chapter 244: Shanghai Fantasy
Everything that just happened completely left them both in shock! But now it seemed as if everything had already come to an end.
“Alright, it’s over now! It looks like we won’t be able to continue shopping with you, so let’s leave first,” Wu Hao said with a smile, signaling them not to be nervous. He then prepared to leave with the two of them.
At this moment, although the square was still somewhat chaotic, when the originally panicking pedestrians saw Wu Hao dart through the crowd like lightning and, with a simple and brutal punch, knock a man to the ground, seemingly lifeless, before picking up the man’s dropped handgun and firing a few muffled shots into the distance, everything seemed to have calmed down. The previously frantic pedestrians immediately stopped running around and instead showed a tendency to continue watching.
Our citizens are famously fond of spectacles. No matter what happens, as long as there are people watching, some bystanders will always come over to see what’s going on. Unless something obviously dangerous occurs, nothing can dampen their enthusiasm for watching.
“What just happened? I heard someone mention something about a sniper!” The pedestrians around the square, noticing that everything indeed seemed to have calmed down, began discussing what had just occurred.
“I don’t know. I just saw that the stone slabs around the man were hit by something, making several holes in the ground. This should be the work of a sniper!”
“But that guy with the two beauties was really amazing! The speed was so fast it was almost impossible to see, and even such a powerful sniper rifle couldn’t hit him. I’m now wondering if I was dreaming or if I was watching a 3D action movie.”
In a corner of the square, several young men who were barely considered acquaintances of Wu Hao had feelings similar to the pedestrians who had witnessed the events.
