"Bang!" The sound of a gunshot echoed through the mountain woods.
"Ah!" Zhong Yongxiu let out a scream of agony, dropped to his knees, with fresh blood ceaselessly flowing from his thigh.
It was only due to Zhong Yongxiu's quick reaction that the shot didn't take his life.
Everyone was stunned, no one expected Xu Lei to aim the gun at Zhong Yongxiu and open fire directly.
Nor did they know that Ge Dongxu, the chief consultant was not just in name. Even Director Fan Hong had to address him as 'sir'. Under the circumstances of being actively challenged, Zhong Yongxiu dared to summon a zombie cat to attack Ge Dongxu, an act far more severe than attacking a police officer with a deadly weapon. It was equivalent to assassinating the head of their department, a serious challenge to the authority of the state agency, and Xu Lei had no reason to be polite to him.
That he wasn't killed by a single shot could be considered lucky.
