Chapter 116 Robbery, Reunion, and Unprofessionalism

The gangsters looked at each other in bewilderment.

Luke released the pause button, and the device said again coldly, “Speak, or you will all die.”

At that moment, the bathroom door opened, and a young Latino man came out. Astounded, he reached for his gun.

But in Luke’s eyes, the man was moving in slow motion.

Luke even had the time to glance at the four men and the woman in front of him, before he pulled the trigger.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

After three gunshots, three men, including the one at the bathroom door, collapsed.

All of them had been shot in the head. They were as dead as could be.

They had all reached for their guns, but hadn’t had the chance to draw them.

Luke had leveled up to level 8 after the failed hijacking, and he had allocated the four stat points to Strength.

Now, he had 28 Strength and 20 Dexterity. He was far stronger than the gangsters in every aspect. Even though the three men were spaced out, none of his shots had missed.

Luke rewound his recorder and played it again. “Where’s your money? Speak, or you will all die.”

The mechanical warning shocked the survivors back to their senses.

Dripping tears and snot, the woman in the red skirt pointed at a safe not far away. “It’s there! It’s over there!”

Luke pressed the recorder again. “Bring it to me.”

The woman stumbled to the safe and fumbled as she keyed in the password wrong many times.

Thankfully, it was an old safe, and wouldn’t automatically lock after the wrong password was put in consecutively.

Two minutes later, the woman finally opened the safe and took out the cash inside. Most of it was ten- and twenty-dollar bills.

Luke waved the woman aside. He took out a black bag and started putting in the money.

As if he was being careless, he put down his gun next to the money.

The two men on the couch glanced at each other and saw an opportunity. They both drew their guns and tried to aim at Luke.

Pu! Swoosh!

There were two different sounds, but Luke was unmoved. He simply continued to unhurriedly put the money in his bag.

A tiny hole appeared in one of the men’s forehead, and a dagger pierced the other man in the eye.

“Hi! Good evening, it seems that we’re late?”

Luke grabbed the bag and looked at a purple-haired girl who had appeared at the door.

Behind the mask, Luke suddenly smiled.

Instead of reaching for the gun on the table, he waved his hand at the purple-haired girl as if in greeting.

The purple-haired girl asked him curiously, “Are you mute?”

Luke shook his head and made a gesture, hinting that they should talk outside.

The purple-haired girl looked at the woman in the red skirt. “What do you want to do with her?”

Luke made a “be my guest” gesture and crawled out the window.

The girl snorted. “What a strange man, but very interesting!” As she talked, she picked up a knife on the couch with the flat blade of the long saber that she was holding.

She flicked the saber and sent the knife into the woman’s chest.

After searching for a while, the girl found a pile of white crystals, which she flushed down the toilet before she left through the window as well.

On the balcony, Luke stared at the opposite building and made a gesture of greeting.

On the building, a man who was also wearing a mask moved his eyes away from the sniper rifle. “Where is this guy from? He’s not scared that I’ll shoot him?”

The purple-haired girl asked the stranger, “Who are you?”

Luke took out the tiny recorder. “V!”

The girl was stunned. “Why don’t you talk?”

Chuckling, Luke finally took out a modified phone and typed something into it. He pressed the play button, and the same mechanical voice rang out. “You’re too… unprofessional. Modern technology can easily expose you.”

The girl observed him, and had to admit that he had done a better job of disguising himself.

The man didn’t reveal any skin at all. In comparison, half of her face was exposed!

Luke put in another sentence. “You’re lucky you met me. So, a word of advice: If you follow my example, you’ll live a longer life.”

The girl frowned and remarked, “But you look ugly.”

Luke chuckled again. “Alright, enough nonsense. Do you want the money or not?”

The girl was stunned. “You don’t want it?”

Luke put in another sentence. “I know that you just came from Los Angeles, so let’s make a deal.”

Both the girl and the man on the building were shocked. How did the stranger know that they were from Los Angeles?

Luke tossed the bag to the girl and said with his phone, “If you have cash in LA, I’ll take that in exchange for this. If you don’t, this is my gift to you.”

The girl was completely confused by what he was doing

Wasn’t he here to kill the drug dealers and loot them of their money? Why was he suddenly so generous?

There was more than ten grand in the bag, and he was giving it away?

She couldn’t help but look at the opposite building.

The man wearing the mask hesitated, then said something to her.

The girl said, “Okay, but we need to know how much you know about us.”

Chuckling, Luke typed again, “I only know your name. However, I need to remind you again that your disguise is too simple, and it’s not hard to recognize you, Mindy.”

The girl’s eyes widened and her mouth dropped open. She was obviously dumbstruck.

Luke said again, “It’s possible to do model simulations from video or photo evidence now. You haven’t been found out so far, even with half of your face exposed, because you’ve been dealing with gangsters who are incapable of such technology. The police, however, are a different matter.”

The girl was completely at a loss. She was no expert on computers.

The middle-aged man also scratched his head. Was he outdated when he had only retired two years ago?

In the end, he said something into his headset.

The purple-haired girl said, “Remember this address. We have some equipment and cash stashed there. Take them, and our deal is done.”
