Liu Hui and Li Yilong were also startled by the sudden intruder and froze for a moment.

The murderous intent in Liu Hui's eyes intensified. He absolutely could not allow the mission to go wrong again, especially not to be disturbed by two seemingly ordinary people.

He bravely endured Li Yilong's headbutt, his right hand suddenly shooting out and grabbing the pistol handle half a second ahead of him!

When Zhang Xiaoqiang saw Liu Hui grab the gun, his pupils contracted sharply, and without thinking, he threw the fruit knife in his hand at Liu Hui's arm that was holding the gun!

He frequented the streets, and fighting was a common occurrence for him. His aim was decent, but his strength was definitely lacking.

"Swoosh!" The fruit knife grazed Liu Hui's forearm, leaving a bloody gash. Although it wasn't deep, it made his hand tremble.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yilong used his bound feet to stomp hard on Liu Hui's wound on the side of his waist again!

"Ugh!" Liu Hui shuddered in pain, but his grip on the gun tightened, and the muzzle instinctively turned towards the doorway!

At this critical moment, Zhang Xiaoqiang pounced like a cheetah!

He didn't lunge at the pistol, but went straight for Liu Hui!

We must not give this gun-wielding killer a chance to aim and fire!

He slammed into Liu Hui, grabbed Liu Hui's wrists holding the gun tightly with both hands, and pulled them upwards with force. At the same time, he used his body to knock Liu Hui backwards, and the two rolled into a heap.

"Mom! Smash it!" Zhang Xiaoqiang roared.

Yu Xiulian was already terrified, but seeing her son fighting desperately, a fierce maternal instinct was triggered. She screamed, closed her eyes, swung the heavy iron pot in her hand, and smashed it down on Liu Hui's head without a care!

A muffled thud was heard, accompanied by a faint sound of bones cracking.

The edge of the iron pot slammed solidly into Liu Hui's shoulder and neck.

Liu Hui's vision went black, and the grip on his gun loosened.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhang Xiaoqiang twisted the pistol sharply and finally snatched it from Liu Hui's hand!

He rolled to the side, panting, his hands trembling as he gripped the pistol, the dark muzzle pointing back and forth at the two assailants struggling to get up.

"Don't move! You two! Don't fucking move!"

Zhang Xiaoqiang's voice was hoarse, filled with a mixture of fear and ruthlessness.

Liu Hui clutched his neck, which was throbbing with pain, and half of his body was numb. He stared at Zhang Xiaoqiang with venomous eyes, but dared not make a move for the time being.

Li Yilong leaned against the foot of the bed, panting, his eyes flickering as he looked at the gun in Zhang Xiaoqiang's hand.

For a moment, the situation reached a stalemate.

Zhang Xiaoqiang's heart pounded. He knew this gun was his only weapon, but he had never actually fired a gun, let alone killed anyone. All he wanted was to get his mother away safely.

"Xiao, Xiaoqiang..." Yu Xiulian gripped the iron pot, trembling all over, her face deathly pale.

"Mom, it's okay, it's okay." Zhang Xiaoqiang tried to remain calm, pointing the gun mainly at Liu Hui, who seemed to pose a greater threat.

"You, step back to the corner!" he ordered Liu Hui.

A hint of mockery flashed in Liu Hui's eyes. He could tell that the young man's grip on the gun was clumsy, and his fingers couldn't even hold the trigger properly.

However, his injuries were too severe, and he was temporarily unable to fight back, so he could only slowly move towards the corner of the wall.

Zhang Xiaoqiang then looked at Li Yilong, and his eyes narrowed immediately!

It really was him! That ruthless guy from Xingcheng! Now I know where that feeling of familiarity came from!

I'd seen this guy once by chance at a nightclub! He was a regular customer of Brother Hao's!

It seems that this so-called Boss Lu must be a member of the Lu family, just like Brother Hao!

Zhang Xiaoqiang's fear deepened! He pointed his gun at Li Yilong!

"You too, behave yourself!"

Li Yilong grinned, revealing his bloodied teeth, but didn't say anything.

Zhang Xiao forced herself to calm down and thought quickly.

The doors and windows are sealed shut; they can't get out. Although the two assailants are currently being held at gunpoint, they are both wounded and like trapped beasts, ready to retaliate at any moment. They can't stay any longer!

"Mom, search him!"

Zhang Xiaoqiang signaled to Yu Xiulian to search for Li Yilong, who was closer to her and whose hands were tied behind his back.

Although Yu Xiulian was afraid, she trusted her son more. She stepped forward tremblingly, avoiding Li Yilong's fierce gaze, and groped him.

I only found some loose change and a lighter, but I did find a small, sharp knife, about the size of a palm, strapped to his skin on the inside of his trouser leg.

Yu Xiulian quickly took the knife as well.

"There's nothing there..." Yu Xiulian shook her head.

"Let's go check on that guy over there..."

Yu Xiulian went to Liu Hui's side again, and found not only a cell phone and some bullets, but also an electronic device that seemed to be a communicator.

Zhang Xiaoqiang pointed the gun at Liu Hui. "Is that thing a controller or a communicator? How do you use it? How do you open the doors and windows?"

Liu Hui sneered and said in a hoarse voice, "Only the boss knows the password. It's no use killing me."

Just then, Li Yilong, who had been observing silently, suddenly spoke, his voice dry and unpleasant.

"Kid... your mom's the cleaner here? She knows about the secret room upstairs, right?"

"That old bastard's manhood is all inside... Let me go, and we'll pry open the secret chamber together. What's inside is enough for us to escape to the farthest reaches of the world..."

"Shut up!" Liu Hui shouted sharply, struggling to lunge at Li Yilong.

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out! In a moment of panic, Zhang Xiaoqiang pulled the trigger. The bullet struck the ceiling, plaster falling in a shower. His face paled further, but his eyes were fierce: "Don't the hell move! Anyone who moves, I'll kill them!"

The gunshot startled the two men!

A resolute glint flashed in Liu Hui's eyes... He knew that the mission had completely failed.

The young man in front of us may not dare to kill, but if time drags on and the boss returns, or if these two actually break into the secret room and see something they shouldn't... the consequences will be unimaginable.

We can't wait any longer; we must activate the final contingency plan and clean everything up, including himself.

Taking advantage of the moment when Zhang Xiaoqiang's gun barrel rose slightly due to recoil and his mind was stunned by the gunshot, he used his last bit of strength to roll violently to the side of the bed and pressed his left hand hard on a very hidden protrusion under the bed!

"drop--!!!"

A sharp, piercing alarm instantly resounded throughout the entire villa!

At the same time, all the lights started flashing wildly!

"not good!"

Although Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't know what Liu Hui had pressed, he instinctively sensed a great danger approaching!

"Mom! Run! Get out of this room!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy door of the guest room suddenly clicked and locked itself shut!

The alloy bars outside the window made a screeching sound, as if they were being locked even tighter!

"Hahaha... Let's die together!" Liu Hui laughed maniacally, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with madness!

"Boss... the mission... is complete..."

He pressed not only the alarm, but also the emergency self-destruct device connected to the core load-bearing structure of the villa and small military explosives!

This was Lu Jingxiang's last resort, and only Liu Hui knew its exact location and activation method!

Originally intended to prevent the destruction of evidence should the villa fall into enemy hands, it has now become a weapon for his mutual destruction.

"BOOM—!!!"

A violent explosion suddenly erupted from somewhere on the second floor of the villa!
