Chapter 75: King Slayer, Kenny Clark!
It seemed she didn't want to be left behind as Rebecca clung to me, her body pressing against mine, "Do you have any plans today?"
This was her way of saying, "What do you want me to do?"
I understood, and Maria certainly understood as well. It was a blatant invitation.
"We have an event to attend." That was Maria's response. Telling the woman next to us, we're on the job.
Rebecca looked dissatisfied with this meddling woman, but it must be said that this woman was indeed very beautiful and posed a threat.
"The event is boring." I handed the remaining cash from the suitcase directly to the staff, keeping 1.6 million US Dollars.
"It really is boring. What do you want to do?"
I looked at Lucas on the stage, feeling the passion of the two women.
"I don't know."
It was not yet dinner time nor had the nightlife started; as for shopping?
That's something all men hate, I didn't know what I could do.
"Let's go see a movie. I haven't been to a cinema in a long time." Maria needed to run a tavern, and Tanzande didn't have good cinemas or a good environment, she seemed really interested.
"Alright, let's go see a movie."
"Really?" Maria exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes."
"When do we leave?" Rebecca gestured around, the event was still ongoing.
"Where's your car?"
"I don't have a car."
"Then go with Maria to wait in the car for me."
Understanding that I had something to do, Maria took Rebecca and left.
I clasped my hands as I quietly watched Lucas on stage, this man looked really good on the outside, but unfortunately, his soul was dirty.
"Ready?"
I retreated from the podium, speaking softly.
"Stand by!"
"Action!"
Duke took out his phone, moving to a safe spot.
He pressed the trigger.
There was a massive explosion from a parked vehicle on the edge of the street, flames soared.
Fortunately, it didn't harm pedestrians; people were gathered around Columbus Park.
The street explosion immediately caused panic.
Numerous police officers departed from the park, rushing towards the street.
"Lock down the traffic!"
"Hmm!" Duke triggered the bomb again.
A chain of explosions occurred by the parking lot of the park.
Numerous cars were affected.
The sound of sirens blared intensely.
"Oh my God!"
"There's an attack! Is it guerrillas?"
Many citizens were terrified, darting around like scattered rabbits, in the park, on the street, everywhere there were people running.
Seeing the chaotic scene, Lucas searched for my figure.
"Sir, it's very dangerous here, please leave." Lucas's bodyguard immediately approached.
But the explosions continued, flashing fire all around, they were like beasts in a cage, trapped by the chaotic crowd and the chaotic streets.
"We need to head to a safe place immediately."
"Can't we go home?" Lucas's wife clutched their child, somewhat at a loss; only home felt the safest.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, we can't leave now. Who is the attacker? What's the attacker's purpose? How many are there? Are there snipers? We don't know, so for now, it's best to find a hidden safe point. With the police, we can assess the situation temporarily, and then we'll notify reinforcements to take you home."
Listening to the bodyguard's words, Lucas realized my presence was an unexpected event, he never considered a mouse would dare to provoke a cat.
"Listen to them!" Let professionals handle professional matters, that's the secret to Lucas's success.
The four bodyguards formed a formation to escort Lucas and his family, moving towards the nearest hotel.
Crossing the chaotic street, Lucas's family reached the hotel lobby where many people had gathered.
"Sir, we can't stay in the lobby, there are too many people here."
Lucas nodded, and with the bodyguards, explained their intention to the front desk, requesting a conference room on the 2nd floor of the hotel.
I followed them into the hotel from behind.
"Duke?"
"Hmm!"
"Your position?"
"I'm in the laundry room at the back of the hotel."
"Fire shots to create chaos!"
"FUCK!"
Bang bang bang!
Duke pulled out a handgun, covering his face, shouting at the workers in the hallway, "Get out of my way."
"Ahhh!"
Three middle-aged women screamed as they rushed to the hotel lobby, "There's an attacker here! There's a gun!"
The gunshots drew the attention of the bodyguards on the 2nd floor.
Looking at Lucas's family resting in the conference room seats. "Sir, did you hear the gunshots? Do you need me to check it out?"
Lucas didn't know what to choose.
"Number 3 and 4 will stay, they're professional soldiers, don't worry. We've contacted the police department, they're sending people over!"
"Go!"
Bodyguards number 1 and 2 drew their handguns and left the conference room, carefully moving towards the safe passage, heading down to the first floor.
The two bodyguards at the door drew their handguns, standing guard.
Thud!
A wine bottle was thrown into the corner of the hallway, the two bodyguards warily raised their handguns, aiming at the direction of the passage.
Number 3 raised his hand, forming a fist, cautiously moving, his gun always aimed at the entrance of the door!
People have a habit, during close combat situations.
Some think squatting down is safe!
It's actually more dangerous because, based on shooting habits, we generally aim at the torso, not the head!
Only in movies do they often aim at the head, in reality, the head is a small target and not easy to hit, targeting the torso is the usual practice for shooters, so the bodyguard's gun isn't parallelly aimed forward, but slightly downward, aimed at the body.
If you squat down, you might get shot in the head.
