Chapter 546: Lone Building (please vote for the super large chapter)
Under the pitch-black night, a black off-road vehicle, riddled with bullet holes and with almost all windows broken except the front windshield, was driving slowly on the road.
He Ao was holding a cigarette in his mouth, holding the steering wheel with one hand, and turning the rearview mirror toward himself with the other hand.
He glanced at his own condition in the rearview mirror. He had some messy and hanging hair, a slightly haggard and crazy face, his exquisite evening dress was full of rips, and his light-colored bow tie was stained with bright red blood.
.
The rising smoke blurred the mirror. He Ao took his eyes back from the rearview mirror, tilted the rearview mirror upward again, and then raised his head to look ahead.
The roads in the Western District are not smooth. There are cement blocks everywhere that have been crushed into pieces by heavy engineering vehicles. Off-road vehicles will be slightly bumpy when driving on such roads.
On both sides of the road are shops that are open normally, and some homeless people in ragged clothes and covered with mud are huddled in the corners of the lights in front of the shops.
They looked at He Ao's vehicle with some curiosity.
Even in the West District, it is not a common thing to drive out in such a damaged vehicle. He Ao has seen many such curious looks along the way.
But everyone was just out of curiosity. Since entering the West District, basically no one dared to stop in front of He Ao's car.
He Ao did not encounter any domineering gangs or robbers.
After all, although the gangs in the West District are crazy, they still have eyes. If you drive a car like this, you may not necessarily have money, but it is definitely not easy to mess with.
He Ao looked back and saw that there were no pursuers on the streets behind him, as if he had really gotten rid of the enemies behind him.
The dilapidated off-road vehicle drove deep into the dilapidated streets at a steady speed.
He Ao glanced at the screen displayed on Eve's navigation on his bracelet, then lightly stepped on the accelerator. The off-road vehicle suddenly accelerated and turned into the deepest part of the night.
A somewhat damaged independent building gradually appeared in He Ao's field of vision.
This building is not high, only about four or five floors. It seems that it was once an abandoned building, and then someone reluctantly repaired it to maintain the original appearance of the building.
This kind of building has a special name in the West District, called "Ansleep Building".
There are many such "sleeping buildings" in the Western District. Most of these buildings have exceeded their service life and are at risk of collapse at any time. However, because the people living in the buildings cannot provide enough money to rebuild the buildings, they can only
Simply repair the building and continue to use it pretending it is a normal building.
The cheapest rental houses in the West End are often found in buildings like this.
The reason why it is called the "Sleeping Building" is because it can provide the poorest people at the bottom of the city with a place to sleep peacefully, sheltered from the wind and rain, although a night's sleep often turns into an eternal sleep.
Of course, not all 'Ansleeping Buildings' will be used for rent. Some buildings in better condition may also be transformed into commercial places by gangs.
For example, the four- to five-story ‘Ansleeping Building’ in front of He Ao at the moment has many business signs posted on it, and it has obviously been transformed into a bustling shopping mall.
However, although the lights in this shopping mall are on at the moment, the entrance is unusually quiet, like a vigilant sentinel standing under the night, waiting for something to arrive.
He Ao slowly turned the steering wheel and parked the off-road vehicle towards the entrance of the shopping mall.
At the same time, he picked up another bracelet placed on the damaged center console of the off-road vehicle and sent a message to the person displayed on the bracelet.
This bracelet is Hei Xi’s bracelet.
The shopping mall in front of her was one of Haixi's properties. She deployed manpower nearby as a way to protect herself.
Almost the moment He Ao sent the message, a figure rushed out of the mall. He looked around and his eyes quickly stopped on He Ao's black off-road vehicle.
Then he rushed over in three steps, stopped in front of the off-road vehicle, and looked inside the vehicle, "Boss?"
His tone rose, with an excited smile on his face.
Then the smile on his face froze in place after seeing the empty interior of the off-road vehicle. Then his smile gradually faded. He turned his head and stared at He Ao, "Where is our boss?"
"I don't think I told you what car I drive."
He Ao took the cigarette butt out of his mouth, put it out with a smile, and turned to look at Ruon.
"I..." Ruo En was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said, "Your car is parked outside here. I can tell it at a glance."
Then he calmed down his emotions a little and asked quickly and fiercely, "Where is our boss? Why is her bracelet in your hand?"
"Hai Xi went to another place. It was me who came here. She asked me to come back to find you and take me back to the bar to retrieve my original clothes."
He Ao said calmly, and then he waved his hand, motioning Ruo En to sit in the passenger seat, "Get in the car?"
"Are you telling the truth?"
Ruo En glanced at He Ao doubtfully, his mechanical prosthetic eyes flashed with a faint light, his eyes fell on Haixi's bracelet in He Ao's hand, he stood up, took a step back, and said quickly,
"You call the boss. I want to hear the boss's voice with my own ears. Now I suspect that you killed the boss and took her bracelet."
The moment he finished speaking, figures wearing shopping mall staff uniforms and holding submachine guns walked out of the night and looked at He Ao.
These people should all be Hexi's subordinates.
At least he was once Hexi's subordinate.
"Can."
He Ao lifted Haixi's bracelet, unlocked it with the password Haixi gave him, and started to open the address book, seemingly looking for the communication target.
"Slow down, I can't see your movements clearly, don't play tricks."
Ruo En watched He Ao's movements and snorted coldly.
"good."
He Ao raised his head and glanced in the direction of the mall. From his angle, he could just see the edge of the mall's rooftop.
He thought for a moment and leaned back on the cushion, letting Ruo En block his body.
"What are you doing?"
Ruon frowned and subconsciously reached for the gun at his waist.
"Adjust to a comfortable position."
He Ao looked at him with a smile, "Can't you?"
"Don't move around," Ruoen looked at He Ao, "You can't rule out your suspicion until you get confirmation from the boss. If it's confirmed that you hurt the boss, I will take action against you, even if you are strong."
"What if it is confirmed that your boss is fine?"
He Ao asked with a smile while looking through his address book.
"Then I will apologize to you."
Ruon said immediately.
His face looked upright, and he seemed to be extremely loyal to Haixi.
"Are you loyal to Hexi?"
He Ao asked with interest.
"Of course, I have been with the boss for seven years, and I am the person who has followed the boss for the longest time. When I first followed her, she was still a middleman."
Ruoen looked at He Ao, laughed, and replied with a little bit of pride, "I have helped her with many things over the years. Without me, she might not have been able to get to where she is today."
"so······"
He Ao stopped flipping the bracelet on his hand and glanced at the rearview mirror that he had just tilted upward. At this moment, the rearview mirror was shining on the scenery at the top of the shopping mall.
After taking a look at the scene in the rearview mirror, He Ao quickly retracted his gaze, turned his head, looked at Ruo En with a smile, and continued, "Do you think that without her, you can replace her and become the most famous person in Wetland?"
middleman?"
At the same time, his other hand moved down slightly and touched the edge of the driver's seat. He still had a smile on his face and looked at Ruo En, "Therefore, you betrayed Hexi and took refuge in Wheeler.
The US consortium, after trying to kill Haixi, replace Haixi?"
"Huh?" Ruo En was stunned, and he subconsciously took half a step back, "What did you say? I don't understand, so don't try to play tricks."
At this time, He Ao suddenly moved the switch on the edge of the seat, and the driver's seat that had been standing up was quickly lowered, and He Ao, who was lying on the seat, also lay down backwards.
boom--
The sharp bullet streaked across the sky in an instant, pierced Ruo En's chest, passed through the broken window of the driver's seat, and the scorching heat wave almost brushed the tip of He Ao's nose and hit the rear door, knocking him out.
A large hole was blown out of the door body, which was still roughly intact.
A very powerful sniper rifle.
He Ao's hand quickly went down and touched the pistol hidden under the seat.
At this moment, Ruon was still standing next to the off-road vehicle, staring at He Ao with wide eyes.
A hole as big as a bowl was opened in his chest by the sniper bullet just now, revealing the densely packed glowing circuits inside.
His eyes flashed with confusion. He opened his mouth and stretched out his hand to He Ao, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.
Until just a second ago, he was still imagining the luxurious days after becoming Wetland's most famous middleman.
His whole body shook weakly and he lay back.
The bullet just now destroyed the core of his prosthetic body, completely destroying his prosthetic body.
The moment his body lay back, He Ao straightened up, raised the pistol he had just grabbed, and pointed it at the top of the mall.
As Ruo En's body fell down, the last obstacle between He Ao and the shopping mall rooftop had disappeared. He Ao's hand moved without any pause. The moment he aimed the pistol, he instantly pulled the trigger.
boom--
Accompanied by the sound of bullets shattering flesh and blood, a figure fell from the edge of the mall's roof.
But He Ao did not look at the results of the battle he had caused. Instead, he immediately turned around and stepped on the accelerator, turned the steering wheel, and rushed out along the broken road.
"It's Jace, kill him, don't let him escape!"
Dozens of fully armed mercenaries wearing exoskeleton armor instantly appeared from the surrounding night.
They rushed to the vehicle parked on the roadside, started the car, and followed He Ao's off-road vehicle.
But this time difference allowed He Ao to break out of their encirclement and rush towards the night.
These vehicles could only shoot at He Ao's off-road vehicle while clinging tightly behind He Ao's off-road vehicle.
Hexi's subordinates looked at this scene in surprise, wondering what had just happened. After a while, they gathered around and looked at Ruo En, who had a big hole in his chest.
At this moment, Ruo En's eyes were wide open, his hands still grasping forward, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He didn't seem to understand until the last moment why the other party wanted to kill him.
——
He Ao lowered his body and dodged a barrage of bullets. He turned his head and glanced behind him. A dozen motorcycles and off-road vehicles were following him closely, almost blocking the entire dilapidated street.
The sharp sound of gunfire became the only music in this silent night.
These are elite mercenaries. Compared with these mercenaries, most gangs in the West District are just children playing house with toy guns.
Heisi has always been very clear about the rules of Wetland's game. The so-called middlemen and the so-called gangs are just dogs of the consortium. The consortium does not care about the dog's life or death, because there will always be someone sitting in the dog's position.
But it was obvious that Ruon didn't want to understand this.
To the Huilmei Medical Foundation and these mercenaries, Ruon's life is no more valuable than a wild dog on the roadside.
From the moment Ruo En asked He Ao to call Haixi, He Ao knew that Ruo En was trying to hold him back. Of course, this was not Ruo En's own decision. This only proved that the person behind Ruo En had recognized him.
Heao.
These mercenaries appeared here to capture Hexi, but besides Hexi, they also had another mission goal, which was to 'kill Jace'.
As He'ao expected, his target level was higher than Haixi's, and just as he guessed, the mercenaries who laid the trap here were the same mercenaries who were originally tasked with killing him.
In fact, when these mercenaries instructed Ruo En to ask He Ao to contact Haixi to prove himself, He Ao knew that his guess was correct.
If the target of these people is He Xi, they will not try to get He Ao to prove himself. They will not care at all whether what He Ao says is true. They will only try to get He Ao to reveal the location of He Xi, or to get He Ao to reveal the location of He Xi.
Haixi came here.
Letting He Ao prove himself will not achieve the goal of catching Hai Xi, but it is a reasonable reason to delay He Ao's arrest.
From the moment he realized this, He Ao knew that the other party's target was no longer Haixi, but himself, and the other party had recognized him.
The opponent did not run out immediately, most likely to lower He Ao's vigilance and provide a chance for a sniper who could kill him with one hit. Delaying He Ao also created time for the sniper to take aim.
So He Ao leaned as far back as possible to avoid being targeted by the sniper, and used the bent rearview mirror to find the sniper's position.
And in this process, Ruon has actually been abandoned.
The mercenary commanders tried to let Ruo En attract He Ao's attention, lower He Ao's vigilance, and let Ruo En become the sniper's human cover. Then the sniper could shoot directly through his chest when he was ready.
body, and then penetrated He Ao's head.
However, He Ao finally found the sniper's position through the rearview mirror and found that the sniper had already taken aim.
In fact, he was not sure at that time whether the sniper would shoot at Ruon, but for safety reasons, he still dodged the move.
Facts have proved that his dodge was correct. If he had acted a little later, his D-level body would have been penetrated, and even if he did not die, he would have been seriously injured.
The other party was far more ruthless than He Ao imagined. Even if he was killing a dog, he would not kill him so decisively and carelessly under normal circumstances.
The dilapidated off-road vehicle made a sharp roar. He Ao asked Eve to overclock the vehicle again. It was obvious that the current state had already reached the limit of the vehicle.
He Ao looked back at the vehicles approaching behind him. Behind these vehicles, the shopping mall building just now was getting further and further away.
He turned around, took a deep breath, turned sharply to the right, drifted into an unlit path on the right, and continued to move forward.
The turn caused him to lose part of his speed, allowing a motorcycle chasing him to catch up. The motorcycle rider straightened up and suddenly threw out an eagle's claw hook tied with a metal wire, which was wrapped around the pillar of the off-road vehicle.
superior.
Then he grabbed the other end of the metal wire, jumped towards the off-road vehicle, took out a laser grenade from his body, and was about to throw it out.
He Ao immediately turned around and shot the mercenary.
The bullet passed through the gap in the exoskeleton armor, penetrated the mercenary's head, and flew the mercenary backward, hitting a mercenary riding a motorcycle behind him.
The laser grenade fell on the ground and exploded with bright light. Several motorcycles around it were detonated at the same time, creating bright fireworks in the night.
As soon as He Ao breathed a sigh of relief, he saw a man who looked like an officer in the mercenary convoy behind him, carrying the barrel of a huge individual rocket launcher and aiming it at the off-road vehicle.
The man looked at He Ao, laughed ferociously, and pulled the trigger.
The distance between the two parties was actually very close all the time, and became even closer after the turn.
At such a close distance, a shell burst out and landed on He Ao, who was chasing the off-road vehicle.
Without hesitation, He Ao kicked open the door of the off-road vehicle and jumped towards the street.
boom--
The rocket hit the off-road vehicle, bursting into bright flames in the dark night. He Ao's jumping body was caught up by the gushing wave of fire, and he flew out, landing in front of an abandoned small building.
He Ao looked back at the mercenary vehicles following closely behind, and then rushed into the small building without hesitation.
Zhi——
Those off-road vehicles and motorcycles stopped in front of this small building and surrounded it.
The officer carrying the individual rocket launcher just now jumped out of the car. He threw the individual rocket launcher aside and was caught by the mercenary following him. Then the officer looked up and looked at the small building in front of him.
This is a seven-story small building. This building seems to have been abandoned before it has been repaired. The whole building has only a simple skeleton, blending into the dark night, like a huge mouth, ready to swallow at any time.
All nightmares.
"team leader!"
A skinny short man approached. More and more vehicles were parked in front of the building. The short man glanced at the officer and asked, "Is that really Jace? Why did he get mixed up with the target of this mission?"
Already?"
"I'm sure it's him. I didn't expect an unexpected gain. We've been waiting for this guy all day, but we didn't expect him to be romantic. He seems to be living a pretty good life,"
The officer glanced at the small building in front of him and waved his hand, "Contact the group and ask the group to bring more genetic medicine."
"Okay," the short man nodded, and then asked with some confusion, "What about us now?"
"Surround this building and set up all the heavy weapons we brought. This guy is very strong and will not be easily solved."
Then the officer looked back and said, "Take out all the genetic medicines and follow me from the first to seventh groups. If you kill this guy directly, you will get a bonus of 10 million!"
The sound of activation of the exoskeleton armor was heard all around.
And the mercenaries responded excitedly but suppressedly, "Kill!"
The shining injection reagents were taken out under the silent night.
