Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 652, Section 242: A Decisive Strike is Essential

Teacher Li never imagined that a Uzi submachine gun could be hidden in the thin tracksuit worn by the maid. It's true that the bolder you are, the more you can achieve.

Of course, the maid's surprise didn't end there; she plucked a sweet potato from her waist.

"L2 hand grenade, standard weapon. Pull the pin and tap it once to shorten the explosion time by five seconds; otherwise, it's ten seconds!"

"You only have one basket of peanuts, so use them sparingly!"

After giving her instructions, the maid pressed the number key for the next floor, and then pressed the first floor key.

Make some noise?

Ah Cong didn't understand the quantitative standards for noise. A clap of thunder was considered noise, as was a cannon boom. But just as he was agonizing over the volume of the noise, the elevator stopped and the doors slowly opened.

There was no time to hesitate. He strode downstairs, walked to the floor plan, studied it carefully, and then, when no one was paying attention to him, he entered the fire escape.

The Hilton Hotel has a very tall floor, a full nine meters high, requiring three flights of stairs to reach the top floor.

Upon reaching the fire escape door, Acong did not hesitate for a moment and rang the fire alarm on the wall, which resounded throughout the entire Hilton Hotel building.

Ah Cong waited for three seconds and heard a series of footsteps. He then hid on the stairs leading to the rooftop. He had just heard the Chinese bodyguard inside say that Juan had placed a helicopter on the roof for safety, ready to evacuate at any time.

He lay prone on the platform, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Juan and his gang of scoundrels.

After emerging from the restroom, Chi Mengli wiped the water droplets from his hands with a tissue. He stood against the wall near the restroom, lit another cigarette, and waited quietly.

The banquet hall had a simple layout with only two entrances and exits. He didn't know if there was a passage upstairs that led to the rooftop, but he could only take one gamble and see if his luck was good enough.

His current position is quite ingenious; it's the center point between the two exits. If Chi Mengli's gamble is correct, he can control both doors with just a pistol.

It can be used for both offense and defense, making it tactically invincible!
"Ring ring ring"

I had only smoked half a cigarette when the fire alarm blared throughout the banquet hall.

The jazz band's performance abruptly stopped. The pleasant music was gone, replaced by the piercing sound of an alarm. The guests were bewildered and silent for a second before returning to their booths to retrieve their belongings and prepare to leave the banquet hall.

Chi Mengli, who was watching from the sidelines, spat the cigarette from his mouth onto the ground. He saw that Hu An and Mei Feng had both stood up and were exchanging opinions, while the bodyguards had already surrounded them.

It seems I'm very lucky; there are no other exit routes around the stands!

"Beautiful lady, may I borrow your scarf?"

Upon seeing a beautiful lady float by, Chi Mengli reached out and grabbed her, pulling off the silk shawl from her shoulder.

The lady, who was about to leave the banquet hall, was stunned to see her favorite silk scarf being snatched away. But she was pulled along by the man with her, so she could only continue forward in her high heels, wanting to leave this troublesome place.

Chi Mengli raised his hand to wave goodbye to the beautiful lady and watched her leave. He wrapped a scarf around his face, leaving only his eyes visible, put on high-definition sunglasses, and went against the flow of people to climb the stairs.

Looking at the chaotic scene, Meifeng cursed, "Huan's mother is really unlucky. Didn't she consult the almanac when she gave birth to Huan? To hold a birthday party and still have to encounter a fire, what a disaster!"

People are packed in like sardines. Even if you managed to break free, you might get trampled to death!
There's no thick smoke yet, so it shouldn't be a big problem. There's a helicopter parked on the roof, so as long as the fire doesn't spread up, we can evacuate safely at any time.

Juan was also maintaining order. His entire family was in the banquet hall, and in order to avoid being wiped out, he had to maintain order and prevent everyone from making mistakes in the rush.

Chi Mengli went against the current and before he could catch his breath, he was stopped by Juan's bodyguard. Without the slightest hesitation, he flicked his sleeve and a sharpened dinner knife appeared in his left palm.

Pretending to fall, he put his right hand on the bodyguard's shoulder, pulled him forcefully, and dragged the bodyguard in front of him. The knife then plunged directly into his brain through his jaw.

"Slow down! Slow down! Don't rush!"

Having landed a successful blow, Chi Mengli gently laid the groaning bodyguard to the ground, making him kneel quietly on the steps. Then, she quickly stood up and continued her attack, kicking the bodyguard down the stairs with a powerful back kick.

With the addition of the bodyguard who had been killed, the scene downstairs became even more chaotic, filled with women's screams. The bodyguard tripped over several guests, and everyone tumbled down the stairs together.

Juan's trusted bodyguard captain immediately noticed the farce and, seeing the commotion on the stairs, patted the bodyguard standing next to him, telling him to go and check it out.

The bodyguard whose name was called immediately drew his pistol and walked towards the center of the chaos.

But by this time, Chi Mengli had already hidden behind a pillar. He saw the bodyguard walking towards the stairs, raised his pistol, aimed at the bodyguard who was checking the situation, and fired a shot.

A silenced pistol with a silencer will not produce a noticeable gunshot unless you are standing right next to the shooter, especially in noisy environments.

The peanut hit the bodyguard squarely in the body; he lost his balance and fell down the stairs. "A gunman!"

"Protect the gentleman and his wife and get them out of here!"

Juan's bodyguard captain, whose eyes never left the bodyguard who had gone to check the situation, immediately realized that there was an assassin in the banquet hall when he found his subordinate had fallen to the ground for no reason.

Juan, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, was immediately pressed down by the bodyguard captain and left via the stairs closest to the stands.

Mei Feng was also protected by her two henchmen and wanted to leave with Juan.

Seeing this, Chi Mengli, who was hiding in the shadows, had no choice but to come to the front of the Roman column, raise his pistol, and shoot at Meifeng.

"Bang bang... bang."

Chi Mengli's marksmanship is mediocre. He's okay at close range, but he's terrible at long range. He can't hit exactly where he wants; he can only send the peanuts to the general location.

But the three claps of thunder did have an effect. Mei Feng, who was about to get up and leave, stopped running away and hid behind the sofa.

Mei Feng's henchmen pulled out pistols and began firing back at Chi Mengli. Juan's bodyguards also left two behind to guard the stairs and prevent Chi Mengli from passing through.

The three parties were locked in a stalemate, with none able to gain the upper hand.

Under the protection of the bodyguard captain, Juan left the banquet hall unharmed. Because the fire alarm went off, they could not leave by elevator and had to meet up with the two bodyguards guarding the door. Then they opened the fire door and prepared to go to the rooftop via the stairs.

Ah Cong, who was lying on the landing of the stairs, did not fire a shot. He was waiting for the big fish.

Now the big fish has arrived!

Upon hearing the fire door open, Acong picked up his UZI submachine gun, pointed the muzzle at the fire door, but did not fire immediately, thus sparing the first lucky victim from falling.

The first lucky guy went downstairs to check and found nothing wrong. He then looked at the steps leading upstairs and didn't see Ah Cong hiding in the shadows. He used his body to hold the fire door open so that Juan could go in quickly.

The head bodyguard escorted Juan into the stairwell, and just as they were about to go upstairs, they heard a series of gunshots.

Upon seeing the big fish arrive, Ah Cong did not hesitate at all and immediately pulled the trigger, turning Juan and the head bodyguard, who had not yet reacted, into spray nozzles, their bodies exploding in the river, blood flowing out from the large hole made by the peanut.

After firing more than a dozen shots and confirming that there were no living people in the stairwell, Ah Cong got up from the ground, picked up his UZI submachine gun, and ran forward.

Blood flowed down the stairs. An ordinary person would have been terrified and their legs would have gone weak, but Ah Cong was very happy. He was really happy. Only at this moment could he feel that he was still alive.

However, his genetic and bloodline talents prevented him from showing this joy on his face.

Ah Cong quickly arrived at the fire door. The bodyguard who had been using his body to hold the door shut was already dead. He observed the surrounding environment and found that there were still a few bodyguards in the corridor behind the fire door. He took out a sweet potato, smashed it hard, and threw it into the corridor.

After doing all that, he ran back, climbed to the top of the stairs in one go, opened his mouth wide, stuck out his tongue, and covered his mouth with his fingers.

"boom"

A loud bang echoed into the stairwell. Ah Cong felt the stairs shake, and a flame pierced through the gap in the fire door, but disappeared after half a second. Then, the entire stairwell was filled with the aroma of meat.

Chi Mengli, who was confronting Meifeng in the banquet hall, also felt the power of the earth melon. It was very direct! Extremely direct! Because the door separating the banquet hall and the corridor flew straight in, knocking down two unlucky guys.

When tinnitus struck, he could only shake his head and open his mouth, hoping the tinnitus would disappear quickly.

Taking advantage of an opportunity, Mei-Feng pulled one of her henchmen aside. The henchman understood immediately. He gritted his teeth, knowing that he was going to die for his boss. He had no other choice, because if his boss didn't return to Hong Kong alive, his whole family would be killed.

The choice between one person dying or the whole family dying is easy!
Even if he dies, if the big boss can safely return to Hong Kong, his family will receive a large sum of money. He will take care of his wife, children, and elderly parents to the end; this is the rule of the underworld.

Thinking of this, he stood up, constantly encouraging himself, and fearlessly walked towards the pillar where Chi Mengli was hiding, pulling the trigger continuously and firing incessantly.

No one could withstand such a desperate attack. Chi Mengli only replaced a pillar for himself, and waited until this suicidal wretch was within effective shooting range before exposing half of his body, pulling the trigger, and taking him down with a single shot.

Guns are not prohibited in the motherland, nor are they prohibited in Hong Kong. As long as you have a license, you can legally own firearms.

Therefore, there are many gun clubs in Central that can provide gun skills training and shooting practice.

Chi Mengli plans to enroll in a shooting course after returning home to practice her marksmanship.
