Shadow Empire

Chapter 70 Some people lost their lives, some people lost their money

The deserter killer saw Jimmy at a glance. He threw away the newspaper in his hand and stood on the side of the road waiting to cross the road. His eyes were fixed on Jimmy who was waiting for a car at the company gate.

He knew that the people around him must be Jimmy's companions, but this was also the best time to take action.

Because the other party would definitely not have thought that when he had so many people on his side, someone would actually assassinate him.

This is a psychological blind spot. When people have a complete sense of security, even if danger is right in front of them, they will not feel it, and may even feel very comfortable because of the warmth from their brothers.

It's a busy place, there are many people on the streets, and the building layout is also very complicated. The Deserter Killer did not do nothing this week, but did a lot.

In addition to helping girls in need around here every day, he figured out the distribution of these alleys, found the most reasonable escape route, and ran back and forth several times.

There were two dead-end alleys where he had placed some equipment for escape, such as a rope hanging from a wall more than three meters high.

When he runs here, he can jump up and grab the rope to climb over the wall, and then pull the rope and jump down from the other side. In this way, even if the people chasing him can use a human ladder to climb over, they will have to wait for a while.

He also tried the pistol given to him by the contact, a McGregor semi-automatic pistol that he had heard of, and tested the gun in a deserted place.

Every day he would familiarize himself with his gun and clean the bullets.

He had encountered cases of bullets misfiring on the battlefields of the empire. It was obvious that those bullets had been poorly maintained and might even have been soaked in water.

More than half of their men died in that battle, and almost all of them failed to fire after two shots, which made it impossible for them to form an effective firepower network.

So he was very sensitive and concerned about this, and would wipe the bullets with gun oil every day to keep them clean and bright.

Just looking at it is a pleasure.

Everything he did was for today.

This road leads to the First Pier and has a lot of traffic. He calculated many things, but the only thing he didn't take into account was that it would take so much time to cross the road.

One car after another drove out from the alley next to the Brothers Import and Export Company. Jimmy and his companions also walked to the side of the road.

Seeing that the other party's car was approaching Jimmy and his group, if he didn't go over, they might leave. The deserter killer hesitated for a moment and decided to carry out the assassination today.

He had been delaying for a week, and the contact person was getting a little impatient. He also thought that as a veteran, he should have no problem dealing with an ordinary person.

They can't carry a bunch of weapons with them, can they?
So he seized the opportunity, crossed the road and ran to the other side, which was obviously a very dangerous action.

A car almost hit a deserter killer who was crossing the road. The driver was so scared that he honked the horn wildly, and the horn attracted Jimmy who was standing on the side of the road bragging.

He turned his head and looked at the person who was running across the road. At this time, he was only about fifteen or sixteen meters away from the other person.

What a coincidence, he was looking at that man and that man was also looking at him, and just by looking at each other, the deserter killer thought he had been exposed.

He put his hand directly into his arms, which is definitely the most dangerous move in the Federation.

If you do this in front of the police, they can even shoot you without warning!

So Jimmy and the people around him noticed this immediately. As a senior cadre living in a world of guns and fire, Jimmy has a strong sense of crisis.

He didn't care whether the other party was drawing his gun or not. He just pulled out the weapon from behind his waist, aimed at the deserter killer and pulled the trigger.

The deserter killer also pulled out his pistol and pulled the trigger at the same time.

He could see that the first bullet hit Jimmy directly, but when he was about to fire the second shot, it jammed!
He quickly dodged, deflected the bullet, and fought back.

The other party's firepower was fucking too strong, far beyond his imagination. Not only were Jimmy's gang shooting, but the people coming out of the company's gate were also shooting!
In less than two seconds, gunshots rang out, crackling loudly!

For a moment, the deserter killer had the illusion that he was back on the battlefield!

This is the fucking Federation?

No, this is the Empire's trench, and the enemy's firepower is as strong as that of the Rebels!

Polly, who was asking his friends from the Red Dog Gang about Jobav in the office, was so frightened that he simply opened the drawer and took out the submachine gun inside. Without caring whether the call was hung up or not, he stood against the wall next to the window.

He took the time to quickly glance downwards and then retracted his head. Although it was only a quick glance of less than a second, he was able to see the situation below.

A guy was shooting and running towards the alley across the street. Polly didn't know this man, but he knew that he was shooting at the first floor of the company.

If someone shoots at your own company, then they must be the enemy!

He opened the window and pulled the trigger at the guy who had already run across the street. Flames spurted out of the bullets. The deserter killer, who had completely disregarded the idea of ​​killing Jimmy and only wanted to escape first, was to run!

Just when he had run across the street and was about to enter the alley, someone suddenly seemed to push him, almost making him fall to the ground.

But he quickly found his balance and ran quickly into the alley as planned.

As long as he can escape this time, he will return to the empire overnight!
As he thought this, he ran and felt himself sweating a lot. He even changed a magazine during the run.

The gun had nine bullets and misfired twice, which made him very angry.

If Jimmy didn't die, the gun was largely responsible.

As he ran, his steps became heavier and heavier, and he even felt like he could not move forward!
These federals are so fucking arrogant. Not only did they fight in the streets in broad daylight, they also shot themselves with submachine guns!
For the first time, the deserter killer felt that he had been deceived. He was deceived by the peace, tranquility, and friendliness promoted by the federal government. He was also deceived by those people in the country who promoted that there was no gunpowder and no danger in the federation!

But it was too late to realize this, as the sounds of footsteps chasing after him and shouting were heard from the alley.

He wiped the sweat from his face, held onto the wall and moved forward step by step, shooting backwards from time to time to stop the pursuers.

But after firing two shots, it suddenly went silent again, and the clicking sound left him at a loss.

He no longer cared whether the gun could be used or not. He threw the gun to the ground and continued to run forward with difficulty.

He looked back and vaguely saw a bright red mark on the ground following him.

"I was shot?"

The moment this thought came to his mind, he felt dizzy and fell to the ground, unable to control himself any longer.

Jimmy chased after him from a distance, covering his arm. When he saw the man had fallen to the ground, he walked towards him while shooting. When he walked to the deserter killer, the guy was already dead.

"Fuck you!" He raised his foot and kicked the man hard in the face. The danger disappeared, the tension brought by adrenaline began to subside, and he began to feel pain.

He was shot in the shoulder socket. He didn't feel anything before, but now it hurts terribly!
His men stopped him and said, "The police are coming soon, Jimmy, let's go treat your gunshot wound first."

Jimmy took one look at the corpse on the ground, turned around and left with his brothers. This is a gang of brothers. Facing danger, no one backed down!
A few minutes later, a large number of police cars arrived and blocked the nearby blocks.

Two police officers from the criminal case team came directly, and when they parked their car outside the Brothers Import and Export Company, they knew that this case was not going to be easy to handle.

Sure enough, before they even opened their mouths, three young men stood up with their hands raised and confessed their guilt.

"Someone just shot at us, and we fired back. I think I hit him with this gun."

The police officer scratched his forehead as he looked at the submachine gun on the ground that he was pointing at. This was not just a surrender, but also a warning and a deterrent.

Officer Hunter, one of the two officers from the criminal unit who arrived at the scene, patted his colleague on the arm and then went straight into the company.

He had dealt with Polly.

Polly knew someone would come looking for him, so he was already standing at the bar, holding a fine drink in his hand, "Brandy or whiskey?"

Hunter hesitated. "It's hard for us to explain to the citizens if you guys keep messing up like this every time."

"Then whiskey." Polly poured two glasses of wine and handed one over. "So I specially arranged three people to take the blame for you. With an explanation, the people won't hold on to it."

Hunter took the glass helplessly and took a sip. The whiskey with ice cubes was easier to drink, and it seemed to have some ice mint in it, which was very comfortable.

"Polly, I told you last time, don't fucking fight in the streets. There are too many witnesses, and the impact is huge. Sometimes we can't suppress their curiosity at all."

"Do you know how much energy we have to put into wiping your ass?"

"You can't always act so recklessly. Even if you really want to kill someone, can you do it at Angel Lake like those big families?"

Polly pulled out his checkbook, filled in a number, and handed it over. "Are you still bothering me?"

Hunter looked at the number on the check and pushed his hair back. “That’s not what I meant…”

Polly wrote another check, "So?"

Hunter took a deep breath and his tone became much softer. "For the sake of our friendship, please don't cause me any more trouble!"

After watching Hunter leave, Polly walked back and forth a few steps, "Go find Jimmy for me, now!"
