Chapter 280: Chapter 196 The Siren’s Song_2
"Boss, there’s just one man and one woman!" one of them said after looking behind the two, his voice expressing relief.
"Damn it, what rotten luck! To think there would be a wild pair in such a remote place!
Kill them and throw them overboard," the leader ordered with a wave of his hand.
"Heh heh!" Another man pulled something out of his chest, which glinted coldly under the moonlight.
My heart skipped a beat. "Be careful!"
No sooner had I spoken than Yan Weiwei charged forward.
"Whoosh!" "Bang!" "Hmph!" All that could be heard in the darkness was a muffled groan, then the shadow slumped to the ground, unable to get up for quite some time.
"What?" X2
Two startled cries came from across the way.
"Touchy business, let’s take them together!"
By then, my eyes had adjusted to the dark, and I saw the two men charging at Yan Weiwei and myself from either side, brandishing something shiny and sharp in their hands!
"Be careful!" Yan Weiwei had not expected them to be so crafty; seeing that she was not easy to tackle, they had opted to go for the easier target instead.
Wanting to help, but constrained by the evening dress I was wearing, I saw it was already too late.
"Dumb teammates!!"
Cursing silently, without time to think, I immediately entered the Overclocking State, and everything around me seemed to slow down.
"Swipe!" The blade whistled past.
I leaned back slightly, able to see clearly the inverse cross tattoo on the back of the hand that swept the blade past my face...
"Bang Bang Bang!"
In just a moment, all three opponents were down on the ground.
Yan Weiwei and I stood back up and looked at each other.
"Not bad, weren’t you completely disoriented by Yuan Li last time? But that sneak leg sweep of yours was really sneaky," I remarked.
"And I almost died of fright because of you!
Next time, can we not be so over the top with justice and just call 110 using the proper channels?" I said, still shaken.
Truth be told, even I hadn’t anticipated such good results from using the Overclocking State against the enemy.
The opponent seemed to move in slow motion; truly, in the realm of martial arts, speed is the key to victory!
"This is international waters, calling 110 could take ages, by then the moment would have passed.
I’ll keep an eye on them, you go call security."
However, just as we were about to seek the ship’s security staff to deal with these men.
One of the men suddenly struggled to grab a waterproof bag nearby, and quickly pulled out an object that was pitch-black and pointed it at us.
"Be careful!" "Bang!"
Before I could react, I was tackled to the ground by Yan Weiwei, and a loud bang rang by my ear.
A gun! It was the sound of a gunshot!
"Run!"
Once again, I entered Overclocking State, rolling to a corner with Yan Weiwei and staggering towards the front during the time it took for the aggressor to get up.
Yan Weiwei was somewhat heavy.
But with bullets whizzing by and sparking on the cabin wall, I had no time to think.
"Help!" I shouted while running.
"&@@%%!&¥!#"
Finally, not far ahead, it seemed someone heard the commotion; shadows, mixed with the noise of broken English, approached us hurriedly.
Muffled curses followed from behind.
"Stop chasing! Retreat!"
Once we reached the crowd, a relieved Yan Weiwei and I finally collapsed on the ground, panting heavily.
"I knew it! I knew it wasn’t going to be simple!"
A gunfight, rarely witnessed in a lifetime by ordinary people, had become a recurrent event for me, cursed with this damn Conan-like fate!
"At least we’re fast runners..."
My voice of relief abruptly stopped.
Because lying on the ground, Yan Weiwei’s face was ashen, a frighteningly vivid stain of blood slowly spreading across her white evening dress, staining it a deep red...
"You..." I stared in shock, my heart slowly sinking to the depths.
"Heh! Consider our debts repaid," Yan Weiwei said with a wry smile as she looked at her wound.
Her smile was melancholic.
I took off my jacket, pressing desperately with both hands against her chest, but the blood seemed to flow endlessly...
"Why?" I asked, my voice low, teeth clenched.
"You said it! You said just by watching an opponent’s expressions and eyes, you could predict their moves. You couldn’t have missed that the gun was pointed at me! Why did you come over?"
"Heh! Who knows, maybe my brain overheated, maybe I thought I could win the odds of survival just like you, maybe..."
Yan Weiwei’s voice grew fainter, the light in her eyes quickly fading.
"No! Don’t!"
"I’m a bit cold, can you hold me, please?"
However, before I could respond.
The next moment, her arm dropped lifelessly...
"No~~~"
"Those years of missed downpours,
The love I missed in those years,
I really want to tell you,
Tell you I haven’t forgotten.
That night, underneath the starry sky,
The promise under a parallel universe,
If we meet again, I will,
Hold you tight..."
The central music dance floor upstairs started playing a melodious song, quickly dispersed by the sea breeze.
Her final smile was forever imprinted in my memory, so perfect.
Even though it was my greatest regret in this life...
...
Some regrets, we desperately try to mend, but some people and events are missed in the end.
But you can be thankful.
Thankful that you can return to the starting point...
Once past the Forget River, everything will start anew...
...
The three criminals panicked and jumped into the sea to escape, with not one apprehended.
But the case they left behind was discovered, inside it lay a precious Han Dynasty bronze artifact.
