Chapter 817: Exposing the Enemy’s Disguise
Chapter 817 Bang——
Suddenly, alarms blared in his mind. Lu Jinghan instinctively looked up, casting his gaze toward the man.
The moment he looked up, he noticed the man’s eyes glimmering with a fierce chill, sending a shiver down his spine.
In the next second, Lu Jihan saw that man reach for his waist.
Realizing what he intended to do, Lu Jihan silently thought, ’Not good,’ and reacted immediately the next second.
He grabbed hold of the opponent’s wrist!
Leveraging the force, Lu Jinghan stood up straight, his hand pinning down the large hand that hadn’t managed to leave the man’s shoulder.
At the same time, his other large hand reached for the man’s waist, trying to seize the gun before the man could.
However, clearly, that man wasn’t easily dealt with.
With a spin, he blocked Lu Jihan with his arm, dodging the reaching hand.
Then, with a twist, he drew out the gun from his waist, aiming it directly at Lu Jihan.
Lu Jihan was greatly startled.
No sooner said than done, he instantly raised his arm, his large hand clamping down on the man’s wrist with considerable force, and just as the trigger was about to be pulled, he crushed the man’s arm.
A loud crack resounded, the sound of bones crisply breaking. The man let out a muffled grunt, his expression halted in pain.
Immediately after, the gun fell from the man’s hand, dropping to the ground.
Seeing this, Lu Jihan swiftly sidestepped, lifting his leg to kick the gun against the base of the wall.
Without a weapon in hand, the man had no choice but to engage Lu Jihan in hand-to-hand combat.
The opponent was a trained fighter, while Lu Jihan only practiced some self-defense skills during his spare time.
Moreover, he already had a head injury, so after a few rounds, he was starting to feel overwhelmed.
However, Lu Jihan possessed keen observation and reaction skills, executing every move with strategy.
He quickly devised a counter-strategy, also noticing that after the opponent became aware of his slight lack of ability, he let down his guard.
Since the opponent had no weaknesses, he’d wait for the right moment to deliver a fatal blow.
Thus, when the opponent let down his guard and exposed a weakness, Lu Jihan suddenly reached out, throwing a punch at the man’s stomach.
If all previous fights had been with 70% force, then this punch definitely carried 100% power.
All of a sudden, the man’s vision blurred.
If not for years of injuries making him resistant to pain, that punch from Lu Jihan would’ve likely made him black out.
The man instinctively clutched his stomach, bending over, his knees hitting the ground.
But right at this moment, a shadow suddenly passed before him, and shock coursed through him, halting his movements instinctively.
Maintaining his bent posture, he slowly raised his head and discovered—
Sometime earlier, Lu Jihan had already picked up the gun from the ground, aiming it squarely at his forehead.
"Speak! Who sent you? What’s your purpose? Why do you keep following me? Speak up!"
Lu Jihan barked, signaling the man to surrender.
Yet, the man remained fixed on Lu Jihan, his brow furrowed, suddenly positioning the gun muzzle against the man’s skin.
"Still not speaking?!" he urged once more.
The man pursed his lips, narrowed his sharp eyes, nodded, and said, "Alright, I’ll speak!"
Lu Jihan held his breath, quietly waiting.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, footsteps suddenly echoed from outside, growing increasingly closer.
