Chapter 460: 454, Scatter with Lei Ming (Second Update)_1

Before tonight arrived, Ren He had made ample preparations, but he just couldn’t manage to acquire the bullets for his sniper rifle.

At this time, whether buying large-caliber bullets on the black market or bribing a shooting club to purchase them, it was a very dangerous affair, because Ren He didn’t know if there’d be a problem at some point, like someone calling the police, or someone from the black market actually being an informant for the National Security Agency.

Ren He didn’t dare to take that risk, so his sniper rifle only had 17 bullets. That was his final stand for a do-or-die showdown tonight.

All around, countless engine roars could be heard as the whole world became noisy, yet Ren He’s inner world remained incredibly tranquil.

There was no use in panicking, Ren He had already decided to make a final stand.

Thinking about it, Ren He chuckled. He hadn’t expected that, even being granted a second chance at life, he wouldn’t manage to live out his old age. In the past, he had imagined spending every day sitting under the walnut tree in his Courtyard House with Yang Xi, cooling off in the shade.

By that time, Uncle Wang and Aunt Fang would probably be gone, and then he would personally make roll cakes for Yang Xi to eat.

As it turned out, he might not live to see that time.

One kilometer ahead was the sea, now very close.

At this moment, Yang Xi was probably only a few kilometers away from him. Both were in the same city, looking at the same starry sky, yet they were about to be worlds apart.

Suddenly, Ren He recalled a poem by Tagore: "The furthest distance in the world, is not between life and death, but when I stand in front of you, you don’t know that I love you."

Thinking about it now, old Tagore really talked nonsense. The furthest distance in the world, is clearly between life and death...

Haha, and yet at a time like this, he was still thinking so much.

After tonight, there would be no more professor tender as poetry, no more Knight, no more hidden big boss behind the Qinghe Faction.

He had arrived in a hurry, so he might as well leave with dignity.

Ren He, with flames burning in his eyes, sprinted toward the tallest building beside him; that was his sniper spot, his final battlefield!

Just then two black-suited men suddenly lunged out from the side, guns in hands. The moment they saw Ren He, they shot at him. The National Security Agency had originally planned to capture Ren He alive, but now they’d come to realize that it was almost impossible, his lightning-fast neural responses and magical marksmanship posed a threat to everyone’s life.

He was the most ferocious outlaw!

However, before the two men in black suits could even raise their guns, Ren He’s gunshot had already sounded.

Time and time again, the fact had been proven that no one is faster than a bullet, but one can be faster than the hand, and Ren He was the fastest of all!

When life and death were no longer concerns, the National Security Agency might find that this sniper was even more terrifying than ever before.

Two headshots, Ren He didn’t pause for even a moment as he ran towards the tall building, and when he reached it, he immediately started climbing up hand over foot. He clearly remembered the surprise that flashed in the eyes of the two combatants who had just died upon seeing him. They seemed amazed to encounter Ren He here; they all thought he would continue running forward, but they hadn’t expected Ren He to choose a sniper spot here.

Choosing a sniper spot at a time like this, wasn’t it courting death? Tall as the building was, it was just an island; easy to climb up, impossible to come down!

When facing a life-threatening crisis, Ren He moved even faster. He quickly made it to the rooftop without even catching his breath and immediately set up his sniper.

Only then did someone at the distant street observation post suddenly exclaim, "There’s someone on the high-rise!"

At this moment, a shadow crossed the hearts of all pursuing officers. They all knew exactly who they were trying to capture!

They knew exactly what had happened that night!

"Find cover, quick!" someone roared. Not all the vehicles present were armored cars; an armored car could cost millions, and even the National Security Agency couldn’t spend all their budget on those. Besides, to be honest, a 12.7 caliber sniper’s armor-piercing bullets didn’t find it hard to penetrate bulletproof glass.

Bulletproof glass can’t stop every bullet!

However, in the next moment, a thunderous explosion rang out in the already noisy night sky: "Boom!"

It was the sound of a sniper rifle, that person had fired!

For some reason, perhaps it was the understanding of the sniper obtained in the meeting before the capture, or perhaps it was the killing ability the opponent had demonstrated in the process of capture today, but they felt a sense of despair the moment the sniper rifle sounded.

Then, when they realized they weren’t the ones who had died, they felt relieved!

Just then, as a black SUV sped down the road in front of everyone, it exploded dramatically! The other side had actually hit the SUV’s fuel tank with a single shot while the vehicle was moving at high speed!

In theory, bullets absolutely cannot blow up a fuel tank. The scenes in movies are just for visual effect. But the gun in Ren He’s hands wasn’t ordinary, and the 12.7 caliber sniper bullets were mostly black and red-ringed armor-piercing and armor-piercing incendiary bullets.

Ren He calmly smiled on the rooftop, knowing his bullets were limited, but each of those car’s fuel tanks seemed like bombs tailor-made for him. It’s likely that those opponents, sitting inside their metal shells, never considered that he would target the fuel tanks.

That massive explosion and the flames burning on the vehicles turned the night sky red.

Boom! Another vehicle turned into a fireball and erupted in flames!

Boom! The third one!

Ren He, with his powerful physical strength, held the sniper rifle level—an act unimaginable for any sniper. Holding it level wasn’t a problem, but the accuracy would significantly decrease, and the shooter wouldn’t be able to withstand that much recoil!

Ren He felt an inner peace, no more confusion, violence, no thoughts of life and death, and no thoughts of the future.

Perhaps he didn’t have a future anymore, the continuous gunfire sounded like bolts of lightning exploding in the night sky.

Let himself scatter along with the thunder.

On the streets, every SUV within Ren He’s gaze was exploding into balls of flame, as if life was shouting into the night sky, or like a frenzy of Ren He’s own making.

The National Security Agency probably never imagined that such a state apparatus could be pushed to this extent by one man. The voice of a commander roaring madly came through the walkie-talkie, "Get out of the cars, surround that high-rise!"

In Ren He’s scope, he saw people from those cars making evasive maneuvers, jumping out, not caring where the driverless vehicles now speeding along would crash.

They actually abandoned their cars... Ren He smirked to himself. He had forced these people to the point where they didn’t even dare stay in their vehicles. That should make history, right?

Military archives are generally declassified after fifty years. Ren He recalled how 2017 in his previous life was supposedly the year the Kennedy assassination files were to be declassified, but he didn’t make it to that year before finding himself here.

So, when people learn about everything that transpired tonight fifty years later, will they be shocked by him?

...

Also, I am still working on it. By the way, I’ve created a book list called "Elbow’s Granary"; feel free to check it out if you’re interested. It’s basically filled with books that I’ve read in the past and thought were pretty good.
