The look in Brian's eyes turned dangerous. With inhuman speed, he leaned out of the window, turned
towards the direction of the gunshot and pulled the trigger. The bullet rushed out of its barrel with a
burst of blazing fire and sped squarely towards the incoming bullet from the sniper rifle. Almost
simultaneously, he pulled the trigger again and shot at Lorence. The bullet zoomed like a comet cutting
through the night sky.
All this happened in a split second, like a slow-motion movie. Brian's bullet collided into the sniper
bullet accompanied by a little firework. And simultaneously, the driver swerved to dodge the other bullet
and the screeching sound of the tires broke the silence of the night.
But the car managed to dodge the bullet with a single turn and they continued chasing Brian's car in a
few seconds. Howard watched the two cars in front of him with a frown, but he wasn't too worried. They
had arranged the most skillful driver to drive that car, considering he was transporting a sniper.
But to his surprise, there was another screech, followed by a thump. Before he could react, his driver
had stepped on the brake. Howard watched as the car in front of him swerved, lost control and circled
over and over before crashing through the fence of the bridge. It toppled over very quickly. Just as his
car came to a full stop, there was a loud crash where the other car hit the ground.
No one had noticed that Brian had not only ricocheted back the sniper bullet, but also had changed its
direction towards Lorence's car. The whole time, Brian watched as the bullet bounced back and hit the
tire. His eyes were cold, with no concern for the dying enemies. He withdrew his pistol, looked straight
ahead and said in a low, cold voice,"Just as expected."
"Mr. Brian Long, you have such good marksmanship. Is that what they call 'double shooting'? I wonder
who's the best in double shooting- Mr. Long, Shawn, or you," Tony asked. He had never seen Richie or
Shawn attempting a double shoot before. More precisely speaking, no one in XK Intelligence Agency
had had the honor of seeing them in action. Thus, this particular skill called the 'double shooting' had
long become something like a legend in the agency.
It was his first time seeing Mr. Brian Long do the double shooting for real. To avoid his father, Brian had
spent quite a lot of time in Hell Forest with Shawn, and had learnt to shoot two targets with one bullet.
Tony felt very lucky to have witnessed such a great move in action, and decided to brag about today's
experience to Vincent, who would definitely be jealous.
Tony flashed a smile and stepped on the peddle. Right now, Howard had his hands full with rescuing
his subordinates and didn't have enough time to chase them. Howard wouldn't have seen this coming.
They obviously hadn't expected that Brian would be such a good shooter, and not to mention, their
ambush went in vain.
"If you want to find the answer to that, you should ask Shawn, not me. I could pass on your request to
Shawn and Richie." Brian removed the magazine and put the gun back under the seat. His tone was
finally at ease and indifferent as usual.
All of Tony's hairs stood up. He dared not let either of them know that he asked such a question. He
hurriedly said with an awkward smile,"No...No, thanks, Mr. Brian Long."
What the hell... Compared to those two, Mr. Brian Long would actually take it easy if he asked him
occasional questions like that. Tony had been working for him for quite a long time and knew that Mr.
Brian Long would forgive him if he occasionally cracked a joke. But he dared not speak to Shawn or Mr.
Long in that way. If he ever talked to Shawn in that manner, there would be a bullet in his brain before
he could even finish his sentence. And Mr. Long... Come on, who would dare speak to him about
anything, except Madam?
They arrived at the airport soon after. Brian shifted in his seat and took a glance at his watch. He
noticed that they had only two minutes before Rory's plane arrived.
He got off the car, followed by Tony. The two headed towards the airport lobby.
The moment they set foot inside the airport lobby, the arrival of Rory's plane was announced. Brian
narrowed his eyes at the broadcast and walked towards the airport pickup.
When Rory saw him, he was taken aback. He had never expected Mr. Brian Long to pick him up in
person. The age signs and fatigue on his face were replaced by surprise, as he spoke,"Mr. Brian Long,
why are you here?"
"Becky is back. I'll take you to her." Brian's voice was emotionless. He wouldn't deign to speak to this
man if he were not Becky's father.
Rory didn't take any offense from Brian's attitude. One had to learn to get along well with arrogant,
powerful men, when they turned out more powerful than you.
Tony helped Rory with his luggage, and they walked to the parking lot. The atmosphere between them
was a little stiff, if not weird.
They took the same road back. When they passed by the bridge, they saw a flame ablaze below the
bridge. The crashed car's fuel tank had broken and since the engine was still running, an electric spark
due to the crash must have lit the leaking gas, eventually causing an explosion. The whole car was on
fire, engulfing everyone inside it.
