Qie Xieling had never thought he was an unlucky individual until now. He had found out that this game character kept a pocket knife in his boot mainly because he had dealing with a criminal organisation. It was in his best interest to have something to defend himself with in case of a turf war.
So when he jumped into the water he intended to use the pocket knife and cut the rope. Since he was a powerful swimmer and could hold his breath this plan was feasible.
What he didn't expect was for Leong Jinn's trigger-happy fingers to initiate a level four punishment. The result thereof was him experiencing the most excruciating pain in his life underwater. A few seconds in, he passed out as he slowly sank to the bottom.
Meanwhile, on the weathered dock, the imposing figure of Luo Muchen stood alongside his loyal bodyguards. His eyes scanned the calm surface of the water, a flicker of menace overshadowing his face. There was no trace of Qie Xieling resurfacing.
