Chapter 717 - 723: Silence
There was no way to feel anything because too much was happening at once; there simply wasn’t time to process feelings, like Yang Yi now, caught in a mix of astonishment and panic, and within that panic, a sense of loss.
Especially when he saw the rosy-nosed man who rushed out of the restaurant first being pulled out of the car at gunpoint—that moment left Yang Yi dumbfounded, but as soon as he saw the soldier dragging the chubby old man out of the car, Yang Yi almost instantly realized what was going to happen.
This was not the end.
And indeed, that chubby old man swiftly slit the soldier’s throat.
When you’re pointing a gun at someone, don’t stand too close. No matter how fast a person’s actions are, they’re never quicker than a bullet. But sometimes, a person’s actions can be faster than the time it takes to move the muzzle or pull the trigger, so standing too close is actually more dangerous.
With one hand wielding the knife and the other grabbing the gun’s barrel, another swift cut severed the strap of the gun hanging on the soldier, then he raised the gun to fire.
The old man left a profound impression on Yang Yi, but Yang Yi could have done the same, so he wasn’t particularly surprised; he knew what was coming just by watching the soldier’s movements.
But what came next shocked Yang Yi once again.
The man in the black mask fired another shot.
Firing an Uzi submachine gun, every shot ensured someone would fall, regardless of whether they were ten or fifty meters away. When the man in the black mask fired, he transcended the limits of space and distance. Wherever a person stood, as soon as he shot, they would surely fall.
Is it shameful to feel fear?
