Chapter Seventy-Four: "Counter-Killing"
With a sound of "pop~", the door automatically closed due to the pull, and the already small room instantly became a suffocating cage.
"Hold your hands high, don't try to play tricks, you guys came out of the casino and followed me all the way, what do you want to do?" Nicholas raised his gun in both hands and stared at Yuan Haochen with cold eyes.
"Mr. Nicholas, we have no ill intentions, please don't get me wrong." Yuan Haochen raised his hands and said calmly.
"Who the hell are you, Japanese or Chinese agents?" Nicholas remained vigilant.
"We don't belong to any country or government?" Yuan Haochen explained calmly.
"Do you think I'm going to believe you?"
"Mr. Nicholas, you're so sensitive, we played Blackjack at Blackjack at 21 today, and then wanted to come over and have a few drinks with you, that's all." Durunik raised his hands in the air as he tried his best to explain.
"Shut up, it's the two of you who won my money, and you dare to do 21 Blackjack in front of me."
โDamn๏ผit!โ Durukik was speechless for a moment.
"Could it be that intelligence agents from other countries have come to harass you before? But we are not who you think we are, there's no doubt about that. Through Nicholas's speech and demeanor, Yuan Haochen is even more sure that there must be a story behind him.
"Not an intelligence officer? Then why are you following me, don't talk nonsense about asking me for a drink. The confrontation has now made Nicholas a little nervous.
"If we come here to pay you back the money you lost today, would you believe it?" Yuan Haochen raised his eyebrows, and turned his head to signal Nicholas to look at the handbag at his feet.
"It's a ridiculous thing." Although Nicholas didn't care about what he said, his eyes couldn't help but look at the ground.
"You don't believe it? It's full of cash. Yuan Haochen continued, "Do you open it yourself, or will I open it for you?" โ
"Stop, don't try to play tricks, be careful that I blow your head off." Nicholas shouted angrily.
The atmosphere instantly became exciting and thrilling, and the air was filled with an air of anxiety.
Although Yuan Haochen looked calm on his face at this time, in fact, his heart was under great pressure, and he couldn't guarantee that Nicholas would not shoot in the next second.
It was obviously the first time that Durunik had encountered such a difficult situation, and he was extremely remorseful in his heart, he just wanted to chat with Nicholas, but he didn't expect it to turn into a shootout.
And Nicholas is also mentally hairy, these two people in front of him are definitely not simple, Yuan Haochen's calm performance gave him a lot of pressure. If the two people in front of him were not ordinary people, he was not sure that he could kill two professional agents at the same time in an instant, and the outcome would probably be a defeat for both parties. Therefore, he did not dare to shoot rashly.
"OK, Mr. Nicholas, this is certainly not what everyone wants to see." Yuan Haochen continued to raise his hands aloft as he tried to mediate, "I have a suggestion, you see, I'll open this bag with my feet to show you later, how about it?" โ
"God knows what little moves you'll make, I don't think you're an honest man." Nicholas retorted.
"Don't worry, I take my shoes off, you can see it at a glance, I just want to prove our sincerity." As he spoke, Yuan Haochen kicked off his shoes and stood barefoot on the ground.
Fortunately, seeing Yuan Haochen kick off his shoes, Nicholas did not react aggressively, and Yuan Haochen felt relieved.
Then, Yuan Haochen took off his socks very deftly with his feet, and then unzipped the bag with his toes.
"You see, the bag is full of cash, and if we had bad faith towards you, I should have deposited all my winnings into my bank account while I was at the casino, instead of bringing so much cash here."
Yuan Haochen was right, he originally planned to use the money in exchange for Nicholas's information.
"Why would you give me money, it doesn't make sense." Nicholas began to hesitate, but he didn't know how to end it.
"Because we want to hear about your landing on Mars." Yuan Haochen said bluntly.
"And say you're not agents!" When Nicholas heard about Mars, he instantly became nervous.
"God didn't say that only agents would be interested in Mars, we are scientists, we are researchers." Durunik hurriedly explained.
"Scientists? Chinese scientists, or Japanese scientists? What, you want to buy my information? Nicholas had a sneer on his face.
"You're right, but we really don't belong to any country or government. What do you think? Don't you want to check out these banknotes? Yuan Haochen said as he slowly pushed the bag towards Nicholas with his feet.
Nicholas was somewhat attracted by this banknote, and there was a hint of relaxation in his eyes, and this subtle change was instantly keenly noticed by Yuan Haochen.
"Whoosh~" Yuan Haochen's foot used to push the bag suddenly took advantage of the momentum and quickly exerted force, and the extremely fast elastic leg of the blow made the handbag fly straight towards Nicholas's gun-holding arm like a cannonball.
"Bang~" A gunshot rang out, and 0.1 seconds after realizing the sudden change in the situation, Nicholas subconsciously pulled the trigger, and a bullet flew towards Yuan Haochen.
Between the lightning and flint, Yuan Haochen had already made a prediction in advance, his upper body dived forward quickly, and as soon as his feet were pushed to the side, his body skillfully used the reaction force to dodge the bullets that passed by like a ghost, and rushed towards Nicholas.
Nicholas, whose arm was hit by the bag, didn't have time to shoot the second bullet, and Yuan Haochen had already pounced in front of him.
Yuan Haochen kicked out of the air, and a powerful force burst out instantly, Nicholas only felt a sharp pain in his arm, and then his entire arm lost sensation, and the pistol was kicked to the ground.
Nicholas was startled and rushed to the pistol in desperation.
It's a pity that Yuan Haochen instantly turned into a sharp black shadow, flew up and kicked Nicholas in the jaw.
With a "boom~", Nicholas was kicked to the wall and could no longer move.
This series of shots, Yuan Haochen did it extremely smoothly, chic and elegant, as if every movement had been repeatedly calculated and rehearsed in his mind.
"Kala~" Hara reloaded the pistol he picked up and unceremoniously pressed the muzzle of the gun to Nicholas's head.
"Well, it's not good to be held at gunpoint to the head."
"OK, calm down, calm down, I'll say everything, I'll tell you everything." Nicholas said with blood on the corner of his mouth, trembling.
"I didn't expect you to be so weak, it's so disappointing." Yuan Haochen decided to completely dismantle his mental defense first, so he said sarcastically.
"SHI~T, are you a member of the science team or a member of the action group!" Seeing the instantaneous reversal of the situation, Durunik's jaw dropped in shock.
"Durunik, you go to the door, someone is coming, it should be the barmaid, take the opportunity to kidnap him, don't let him call the police." Yuan Haochen seemed to hear something, and quickly said to Durunik.
"Do you have an ultrasound detector in your head?" Durunik complained as he ambushed behind the door.
"Knock knock~" Sure enough, as soon as Durunik walked to the door, there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Nicholas, I seem to hear strange noises, are you alright?"
"Tell him it's okay and let him in." Hara Haochen poked Nicholas in the head with the muzzle of his gun and ordered.
"I'm fine, you come in."
"Yes, Mr. Nicholas."
As soon as the usher entered the door, he was pressed to the ground by Durunik, and he also blocked his mouth, and his movements were extremely neat. It seems that the members who can pass the IEA (Interstellar Exploration Alliance) assessment have two brushes.
"Okay, you two are honest, we didn't have malicious intentions, and we didn't want to take your lives, but there are some questions that we need your help to answer, I hope you will cooperate well, I can guarantee your personal safety, do you understand?" Yuan Haochen's words were full of undoubted taste.
