Chapter 875: Chapter 880 Hate You for a Lifetime

A gunshot rang out, and Yang Yi froze, Yang Yi went mad, his heart turned ice cold.

Gone, all those scheming strategies—stirring the muddy water, pulling chestnuts out of the fire, the fishermen benefiting from the fight between the snipe and the clam, the mantis stalking the cicada unaware of the oriole behind—gone, all gone.

All his plans had gone down the drain.

No matter who fired that shot, and whether it hit the target or not... psh, a thousand four hundred meters, crosswind, it’d be a miracle if the shot had hit.

Who else could have fired that shot, that sound clearly came from a high-caliber sniper rifle, who else if not that myopic dead rabbit?

Yang Yi stared at the monitor where the rabbit still lay on the bed, while Gong Yang, as crazed as him, had already stormed in.

Yang Yi, both angry and anxious, pointed at the monitor and yelled, "Shoot him! Shoot this bastard! Scumbag! This bastard!"

Xiao Ran’s face was wooden, she was stunned. Whether it was Satan or the Organization of Water, after planning for so long, staking everything on this plan, it was ruined by that one shot.

"What’s going on!"

Gong Yang let out a loud roar.

Truth be told, Yang Yi also wanted to ask what was going on. He wanted to ask Gong Yang where on earth he found such a lousy sniper.

"Target eliminated."

The rabbit’s bland statement surprised Gong Yang standing beside him, and Yang Yi in front of the monitor.

"What... what did you say?"

Gong Yang looked incredulous while Yang Yi turned to Xiao Ran, asking dumbly, "What did he say?"

Xiao Ran was equally baffled, she shockingly said, "He said, target eliminated?"

"Hit the target’s chest, white bald, slightly overweight, about 175 cm tall, features match, target confirmed eliminated."

After the rabbit finished, Yang Yi said with a trembling voice, "It seems like it’s Deyo, the description... matches what Deyo looks like."

Gong Yang dumbly said, "Deyo?"

"Aside from Deyo, we don’t have another target, do we?"

Gong Yang heard something over the walkie-talkie, then he yanked up his pants and bellowed, "Retreat! Target has been eliminated, retreat!"

Gong Yang pointed towards the rabbit, then he roared, "Rabbit! This shot will be something you can boast about for a lifetime!"

Yang Yi’s legs gave way, and then he just plopped down into the chair.

This shot would be enough for the rabbit to boast about for a lifetime, and enough for Yang Yi to hate the rabbit for a lifetime.

What now?

Satan had miraculously completed their mission, they didn’t need to storm the fortress, didn’t need to poison, one shot had taken down Deyo, Satan didn’t need to do anything anymore.

But what about Steve, now that Satan’s mission is over and they’re pulling out, what about the tasks of the Organization of Water?

Planning to hide behind Satan and take advantage, now that Satan no longer needed to be at the forefront, what should the Organization of Water do?

Should they go in themselves?

Or should they retreat along with Satan?

Yang Yi’s mind was a mess. Although Deyo had died, his guard forces hadn’t suffered any losses because just one shot had been fired, and no one other than Deyo had died.

That meant, if the Organization of Water decided to act alone, they would have to endure the wrath and retaliation of Deyo’s formidable and extensive guard forces on their own.

But doing nothing and simply giving up the only chance?

Rabbit’s shot killed not only Deyo but also the entire plan of the Organization of Water.

As Yang Yi was still in a daze, the surveillance monitor suddenly flickered, followed by a loud explosion, and then the screens of two monitors were filled with static.

Xiao Ran turned her head to look and then said in a grave voice, "Satan has blown up the house. It’s on fire."

Well, Yang Yi had also lost two cameras.

The phone rang, and Yang Yi answered. He heard Brian exclaiming in frustration, "Make a decision fast! What should we do? That bastard destroyed everything!"

There was no plan left to speak of. Yang Yi took a breath and then said fiercely, "We can’t just leave like this. Don’t launch an attack; we need to find out if Steve is here. If he is, we must capture him!"

With Deyo dead, Steve had become a hot commodity. Everyone who had once worked under Deyo was eying Steve greedily. Once someone else got to him first, it would be hard for the Organization of Water to get Steve under their control again.

Or perhaps Steve had already become the most powerful one, likely consolidating Deyo’s remaining forces and stepping in as Deyo’s successor. It was crucial, therefore, to take this chaotic time right after Deyo’s death to settle the matter with Steve.

Satan was unreliable now; the Organization of Water had to take action themselves!

A direct attack was not an option, as the Organization of Water didn’t have the strength for it. However, if there was an opportunity, they could make a surprise move, snatch the person, and run.

Of course, that assumed there was an opportunity. But pulling out now would definitely lose them any chance they had.

"Get Jethro here immediately! Have him confirm whether Steve is here or not!"

The problem was that right now, Yang Yi had no idea whether Steve was even here...

Yang Yi was going crazy. Since he had to take matters into his own hands, he had to... go all out.

"Everyone leave the attack position, block all roads, and keep a close watch. If we spot the target, we go in! We are doing this ourselves!"

They had to risk everything now. If they found Steve, they would capture him at all costs.

If they succeeded, they would soar to great heights; if they failed... even if not utterly devastated, it would still cause significant damage.

Yang Yi stood up and said solemnly to Xiao Ran, "We have to do this ourselves! We’re the closest to the scene right now. While the situation is chaotic, I want to get closer and check things out."

Xiao Ran had already picked up her rifle, but upon hearing Yang Yi’s words, she put it down and said in a deep voice, "I’ll go with you!"

"No, I’ll go myself. You cover me. I can’t carry any weapons on me. I’ll pretend just to be a bystander. The police and firefighters will surely arrive soon. Deyo’s men... as long as they aren’t insane, they wouldn’t dare to kill just anyone they see. I need to check if Steve is here."

There was no time for further talk. Yang Yi placed one hand on Xiao Ran’s shoulder and withdrew his knife with the other, saying, "Hold on to the knife for me. I’m counting on you!"

After patting Xiao Ran’s shoulder, Yang Yi grabbed his phone and turned to run outside.

Yang Yi ran very fast. Once he was outside, he started dialing the 112 emergency number.

"Hello, my neighbor’s house has exploded and caught fire. The blaze is huge. I’m at Ferra Corner..."

Yang Yi kept running while talking on the phone until he arrived at Deyo’s villa gate.

Yang Yi looked back.

After Deyo had been shot, someone had run toward the location occupied by Satan. But now, there was no one at the gate of Deyo’s villa. The departed bodyguards had gradually returned, and no one went out anymore.

Deyo was dead, and the person who had fired the shot wouldn’t foolishly remain at the scene - everyone knew this: Yang Yi knew it, and so did Deyo’s bodyguards. Therefore, they wouldn’t run around aimlessly like headless flies. Revenge was both meaningless and no longer possible.
