151: 151.
My bullets can turn corners 151: 151.
My bullets can turn corners In an election here, there’s no need to even ntion drug prohibition.
Anyone showing the slightest intent to combat cri will be shot dead within three days.
Lady Maria was such a threat, a thorn in the side and a nail in the eye of the drug lord.
As she passionately called out from the podium, she was oblivious to the three gunn below who had already gripped their weapons.
It was then that Lu Li took the first shot!
The suppressed pistol at his side was inconspicuous under the cover of his jacket, the bullets within were already imbued by Spirit.
Lu Li pulled the trigger, and with a “whoosh,” a bullet spun out of the chamber at high speed, aid upwards into the air.
The 9mm bullet, weighing less than 10 grams, was very easy for Spirit to control.
The bullet passed over the cheering crowd and plunged down swiftly, burrowing into the upper right of a man’s abdon.
Just as this man’s hand touched the grip of his gun, his “liver” was pierced by the bullet.
The agonizing spasm that overtook his entire body prevented him from making any sound.
And since there was very little bleeding in this area, there was no blood on his clothes.
This assassin, sent by the drug lord, slowly collapsed to the ground, going unnoticed in the fervor of the rally, akin to a concert.
The sound of a suppressed pistol firing went entirely unnoticed as well.
Lu Li fired two more shots, the bullets arcing in parabolic trajectories, turning corners to hit the livers of two other assassins, silently dispatching them.
[I’ve never thought of giving up, I have been bravely fighting, and now I need your help…]
Amid the lady’s cries, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax, and a roaring wave of sound exploded forth.
Lu Li whispered into the earphone:
[Targets neutralized.
The bodies are at 3 and 6 o’clock, close to the podium.]
Aurora’s voice quickly ca through: [I’ll handle it right away.]
She proceeded through the crowd with a line of campaign committee staff, quickly sighting the bodies.
Two of them were still in an upright position, being propped up by the crowd.
Aurora was puzzled; Lu Li was on the left side of the podium—how could he have shot the three gunn without an angle?
But there wasn’t ti to think too much, and she quickly had her people carry the bodies away.
To onlookers, they seed like three over-excited fans who had fainted.
Once they were in a secluded spot, Aurora carefully inspected the bodies and broke out in a cold sweat.
All of the gunn were carrying M67 fragntation grenades, and on one of them, a block-like C4 explosive was found!
Just at that mont, another wave of cheers ca from the rally.
The thought of an explosion in such a densely packed crowd was unimaginable!
At that mont, Aurora was imnsely relieved at Lady Maria’s incredibly wise decision to recruit Lu Li in advance.
~~~~~~~~~
The threat was eliminated, and while Lu Li kept an eye on the situation with Spirit, he also took out his phone to attend to his own matters.
He had another important target upon his return—it was ti to get a “big sniper.”
Especially after having controlled the bullets to turn and eliminate enemies, Lu Li was more eager than ever to control…
a turning bomb.
That’s right, he wanted to buy so artillery, the kind that wasn’t too cumberso and could be deployed quickly.
He was quite satisfied with Northern Industry’s heavy machine guns and rocket launchers.
So he directly visited Northern Industry’s official website and started browsing.
“Oil, minerals…
found it—international defense cooperation!”
His finger flicked through the screens, finding the section that interested him.
He was tempted as soon as he saw it, for there were several sub-categories:
Mobile assault: Selling various tanks, wheeled combat vehicles, and so on.
Smart ammunition: All sorts of missiles, cruise missiles, etc.
And what Lu Li wanted was in the “Firepower Strike” category.
There were multiple rocket launchers and various artillery pieces available, and he quickly set his sights on one:
“The AH4 ultra-light howitzer, 155mm caliber, range of 30 kiloters, combat weight 4.2 tons… this is the one!”
A very sleek “Towed Artillery” was presented in the picture, its range and weight both t Lu Li’s satisfaction.
At 4.2 tons, both he and Xiao Cha could exert a force of 6000 pounds each, they could easily lift it together and run around with it.
Now the issue was purchasing it.
Lu Li vaguely felt that Aurora might not be capable enough for acquiring this newest type of cannon.
As he pondered, the gathering also ca to an end.
~~~~~~~~~
By the ti the gathering finished, it was almost 11 o’clock.
Aurora imdiately reported the incident with the three gunn to Lady Maria, highlighting the grenades and C4 explosive.
“The bomb weighed 5 kilograms and has been disard.”
Upon hearing the report, not only Lady Maria but everyone else’s faces turned grim.
No one had detected the anomaly earlier; without Lu Li, a national tragedy would have ensued!
Although Lady Maria had been ntally prepared, she couldn’t help feeling scared afterwards.
She hurriedly expressed her gratitude to Lu Li, “The drug syndicate is utterly insane!
Thank heavens you were here, thank you!”
Lu Li modestly replied, “It’s simply my duty.”
At this mont, Aurora inquired, “How did you… hit the target?”
Upon hearing this, both Joey and First Lieutenant Reyes perked up their ears to listen.
The identical gunshot wounds on the bodies were indeed baffling.
Lu Li smiled and said, “My bullets can turn corners.”
Even though this was the truth, nobody believed him, assuming Lu Li did not wish to reveal his thod.
Lady Maria suggested with a smile, “Let’s head back to the city hall.
Lu Li, please ride in the sa car with .”
Lu Li, who had been looking for an opportunity to discuss the cannon, naturally did not refuse.
~~~~~~~~~~
They got into Lady Maria’s bulletproof Audi and headed back the way they ca.
Aurora was driving, with First Lieutenant Reyes sitting in the passenger seat, both trusted confidantes.
Lady Maria looked over the schedule and said to Lu Li with formality, “There will be nurous street speeches and campaign gatherings still.
We’ll be counting on you.”
Lu Li nodded and replied, “It’s my responsibility, there’s no need for thanks, ma’am.”
Lady Maria gave a gentle smile, then instructed Aurora:
“Lieutenant, please ensure that all of Lu Li’s needs are t and provide utmost convenience.”
Before Aurora could respond, Lu Li spoke up:
“Speaking of which, I do have a matter to discuss.
I would like to purchase the ‘AH4 ultra-light howitzer’ from Northern Industry of Xia Country.
Could you facilitate this?”
Lady Maria, not well-versed in military hardware, turned to Aurora.
Aurora then looked towards First Lieutenant Reyes and said, “This requires direct contact with Northern Industry, it’s best if the military gets involved.”
First Lieutenant Reyes hesitated and did not speak.
Lady Maria seriously interjected, “If it’s inconvenient, I will contact Colonel Garcia directly.”
First Lieutenant Reyes then spoke:
“Such artillery is expensive and is not common armant; an oil country spent 8.2 million dollars for just six of them.
It indeed would be more appropriate for you to convey the ssage.”
Lady Maria nodded and said to Lu Li:
“It’s too late today; I will contact the colonel first thing tomorrow morning.”
Lu Li gave a slight nod, “I am very appreciative.”
“Don’t ntion it, this is the least I can do to repay you.”
Lady Maria impliedly said, “Once I win the election, it won’t have to be this troubleso.”
It was a subtle reminder, which Lu Li certainly understood, he simply smiled and said no more.
