Chapter Twenty-Eight: Counterattack
"Do you think that by avoiding my gaze, you can get rid of the influence of your abilities?"
After seeing Li Ran jump to hide at the counter, the expression on Kilgrave's face became more and more relaxed.
Walking towards the counter, the black muzzle of the gun in front of him made the smile on Kilgrave's face freeze slightly.
However, he soon noticed that Li Ran was holding the stiff fingers on the handle of the gun, and the frozen smile on the corner of his mouth hooked up again: "It seems that in the end, I won." ”
"Stand up."
With Kilgrave's order, Li Ran, who was hiding behind the counter, stepped forward.
Kilgrave's gaze shifted from the muzzle of the gun to Li Ran's numb expression: "It's a pity, almost, if you move a little faster, maybe it won't be the situation you are in now, it looks like luck is on my side......"
"I don't think so."
"What?!"
The sudden sound in the antique shop made Kilgrave's originally confident expression change suddenly, and when he raised his head, he saw Li Ran, who originally thought he was under control, and hooked the corners of his mouth to reveal a stiff smile to himself.
"Turn around!"
Seeing this scene, Kilgrave's eyes widened subconsciously, and he shouted loudly almost without thinking about it.
Under Kilgrave's order, he saw that Li Ran, who was facing him on the other side, immediately began to turn his body stiffly to the side, and the next second a violent gunfire rang out in the narrow space of the antique shop.
Opening his eyes, Kilgrave looked down at his still intact body, as well as the body of Li Ran on the other side, and couldn't help but laugh wildly for the rest of his life: "Haha, in the end, I won in the end......"
"Yes...... ......"
Under the influence of Kilgrave's ability, Li Ran has completely lost control of his body, but under the control of the only sober brain, he still struggles to reply word by word.
"Don't play this trick anymore, you have completely lost the possibility of turning the tables!"
Li Ran's actions three times and twice obviously had a huge impact on Kilgrave's heart, and at this moment, he was desperate to kill this threat.
Raising his hand, he was about to give the order for Li Ran to shoot himself.
The fierce sense of crisis coming from behind made Kilgray couldn't help but look back, and then he saw that the bullet that Li Ran had just shot was turning around and flying towards him in a magical way.
This time, Kilgray wasn't so lucky, and could only watch as the bullet shot into his body.

……
Bang bang –
"Boss, are you alright?"
Even with Kilgray's control, with Old Jack and a few ordinary people, there is not much hindrance for Jessica.
The success of subduing several people, especially the appearance of old Jack, made Jessica start to worry about the safety of the antique store, although the past experience brought her indelible nightmares, but in essence, Jessica is still a kind person with extraordinary abilities.
Even, if it weren't for the Purple Man, she might still be active as a superhero at the moment, rather than a drunken and irascible private investigator in Hell's Kitchen.
Knocking open the door of the antique store, what Jessica saw was the messy antiques in the store and Li Ran, who was holding a pistol with a blank face.
Retracting his gaze from the purple blood on the ground, Li Ran glanced at the wooden door that was hit by Jessica, and subconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth: "Do you look at me, do you look like you're fine?" ”
Although, he has actively or passively encountered a lot of confrontations with superheroes or villains before, but this time Li Ran's encounter with Ziren is undoubtedly the most dangerous since he had the card, and even, if it weren't for the ability of [Wesley] to be able to resist the superpower from Ziren, and the turning bullet of [Arc Ballistics] is somewhat beyond common sense, maybe what Jessica saw when he came to the antique store at this moment was just Li Ran's corpse lying on the ground.
"You, met him?"
Li Ran's answer made the expression on Jessica's face become heavy immediately, although she knew very well in her heart that there could be no one else except Purple Kilgray who caused all this in front of her, but Jessica still assured a false hope in her heart, hoping that none of this was true.
However, Li Ran's next answer directly extinguished all her hopes.
"If, you mean the guy in purple, yes, I met it, and the blood on the ground is the best proof of that."
Jessica looked at the purple blood in front of her and was silent for a moment before asking in her hoarse voice, "Are you ...... How did it hurt him? I mean...... Under his ability, it is impossible to ...... at all"

Even after seeing the evidence, Jessica still couldn't believe it, she knew Kilgray's ability to control anyone he saw and carry out his orders 100%, in such a situation, there was no way that anyone would hurt him.
"Do you really know who he is?"
Although, even if he didn't need Jessica's explanation, Li Ran already knew that it was the purple man who attacked him. But in order to play his identity well, he still reacted unknowingly and asked, "So, tell me, who is this dangerous guy who suddenly came to attack me." ”
“……”
In the face of Li Ran's questioning, Jessica was silent for a moment before replying with an expressionless cold face: "His name is Kilgray or you can also call him Purple, a ......"
After escaping control, Jessica has been trying to escape the damage caused by the Purple Man to herself, constantly numbing her memories with alcohol. At this moment, he questioned him, but he had to uncover that bloody memory.
“…… In short, he is a very dangerous and terrifying existence. ”
After finishing the introduction of Kilgray, Jessica subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, closed her eyes tightly and suppressed the fluctuating emotions in her heart, before seeing Li Ran in front of her again and asking: "So, boss, I have already told you everything I know, so please also tell me how to get rid of Kilgray's control and successfully hurt him?" ”
Jessica doesn't think that ordinary people can hurt purple people with terrifying control abilities, so Li Ran, as the owner of an antique shop, must have other secrets.
"Perhaps, have you heard of the Assassin Brotherhood?"
Facing Jessica's questioning, Li Ran subconsciously hooked the corners of his mouth and asked rhetorically.
