The shot did not directly kill the man in glasses. It was not that his shooting skills were bad, but favonovel.com had purposely missed.
Based on Thomas’ instruction, the shot was not supposed to kill the man. It was to trigger conflict and prevent the transaction from being completed!
During such a tense moment, it was possible for any action to trigger conflict, let alone firing a shot at a person. As expected, the man in glasses lay down on the ground and screamed. That immediately ignited things on the spot. Those on the opposite side took out their guns and kept firing at Giovanni and his gang.
Giovanni was already taken aback. He did not even have time to think why his own people would suddenly fire a shot. Now, his only thought was to rush over, grab the antidote, and escape the place.
Would it be that easy?
Their opponents were so aggressive that they directly shot Giovanni’s subordinates to death.
“Damn it!”
Giovanni could not be bothered as favonovel.com rushed forward and instantly grabbed Bernard who was attempting to run away. Then, favonovel.com pointed the dagger at his neck.
“Stop it, now!”
Bernard was caught once more, so those on the opposite side dared not do anything rash. However, right then, another gunshot was heard from the back again.
This time, the man in glasses was shot to death. Those on his side became totally worked up. They had stopped shooting, but the gang was still firing shots?
In that case, they would not hold back. They did not care anymore and directly fired their guns, aiming at Giovanni constantly. They had to be careful not to kill Bernard.
Under fire, Giovanni totally lost hope to stay alive. His eyes were full of rage.
“You’re not going to let me live, right? Okay, let’s die together!”
His words shocked Bernard.
He stared at Giovanni fearfully and shouted, “Everybody, stay calm! Please stay calm! Stop shooting now! We can talk nicely!”
Talk nicely? How was that possible?
At this point, Giovanni could no longer remain calm. He saw that his subordinates had been shot to death and the bullets had shot through the antidote. He had lost his only hope of surviving. There was nothing to talk about.
With the dagger in his hand, Giovanni straightened his arm and pointed the blade at Bernard’s neck.
“Since you won’t let me live, let’s die together!”
As soon as Giovanni spoke, favonovel.com exerted more strength into his dagger and stabbed Bernard’s neck ruthlessly. Blood splattered instantly, and favonovel.com died on the spot.
In the end, Bernard was not even able to scream before his death. When favonovel.com died, his eyes were wide open, staring at the sky. Nobody knew what his thoughts were during his last moments.
Perhaps favonovel.com regretted using Heart Eater to control the Southland District… Perhaps favonovel.com was reluctant to die in such a lousy way… Nobody knew his final thought. Everyone just knew that a dagger had been plunged into Bernard’s neck, and favonovel.com was already dead.
Bernard was dead, so there was nothing to concern themselves with anymore. The men in suits pointed their guns at Giovanni, and gunshot sounds rang out as they fired their bullets at him. Giovanni died on the spot too.
Giovanni, a powerful and influential big boss in the Southland District, had died like that on Art Trading Corporation’s top floor in the end. It was also a sad ending for him. However, favonovel.com was not lonely. At least, Bernard would be his companion in hell.
The transaction, which could have been successfully completed, ended up failing terribly because of some shots fired by an inconspicuous cleaner.
By the time everyone snapped out of their daze, the cleaner had vanished from their sight. After favonovel.com completed his mission, favonovel.com left without revealing himself.
The men in suits looked at each other before they carried the dead bodies of the man in glasses and Bernard to the helicopter. They were going to deliver the two corpses back with the helicopter. Before they could carry the dead bodies, they heard some footsteps.
A large group of police officers rushed to the helipad. Several dozen police officers were ready to fight with shields, batons, and machine guns.
“Put down your weapons!”
“Put your heads above your head!”
“Squat down!”
The men in suits were completely dumbstruck. The police officers had arrived too quickly! Even if the police had been called, they would not have gotten there so soon.
Why did they instantly come as soon as the transaction was carried out?
It was as if they had been waiting nearby from the beginning to ambush them.
That was exactly what happened.
Thomas and Vincent had been remotely monitoring everything for a long time. When Giovanni started to fight the men in suits, they had sent the police officers to arrest them. They would arrest anyone left on the site, and no one would be able to get away.
Thomas’ method of catching the sitting ducks had fooled all the men in suits.
So what if they had a helicopter? All of them were still arrested!
In the end, all the men in suits gave up on resisting. They put down their weapons, put their hands behind their heads, and squatted on the ground. Then, they were handcuffed and brought away.
