Within seven paces, the Gunman's shots were both accurate and swift.
Against a gunman fully on guard, Fu Qian had no confidence in disarming the opponent barehanded.
Even with a Throwing Knife, his attack couldn't possibly be faster than his opponent's.
At the same time, he wasn't naive enough to think he could simply talk Chief Stan down from taking action.
Because of his own actions, the world was seizing every opportunity to strangle him.
The brilliant coordination he'd just witnessed with Medea was proof of that.
Such synergy couldn't exist without some sort of cue or guidance.
Of course, there was also his own guidance.
From the start, Fu Qian's strategy wasn't merely to buy time.
The reason he untied Medea just now was to create a flaw for "it" to exploit.
The outcome proved effective.
Chief Stan, Medea, and he himself had all seized opportunities.
