155 Cooperation
Shi Man was wearing a mask, and her tone was so cold that ice could seep out. “How about I make a deal with you?”
“What deal?” The man narrowed his eyes dangerously, his right hand moving subtly to the pistol clipped to his belt.
Shi Man sneered and quickly kicked his hand away. After pulling out his gun for him, she played with it carefully. “It’s not much. Is the dignified boss of the Hellgate using such trash?”
The man groaned at her merciless kick. After hearing what she said, he immediately felt that his dignity had been offended. He couldn’t help but say angrily, “Who are you? Why did you come to Hellgate?”
“Don’t be anxious. Didn’t I say that I’m here to make a deal with you?” Shi Man casually pressed the pistol against his forehead and smiled. “I heard that you wanted to deal with that Immaculate just now. Coincidentally, I have a grudge against them. Why don’t we cooperate? You’ll pay and I’ll help you kill them. How about that?”
The man curled his lips into a cold smile. From the corner of his eye, he sized up the slender and well-proportioned woman beside him. He couldn’t help but mock, “Just you alone? Who can you kill?”
Shi Man was not angry at his disdainful attitude. Instead, the smile on her face became deeper and deeper. The smile gradually spread from her eyes. The pistol against his forehead easily pushed his head to the side and she said slowly, “Who can I kill? I can kill you now, Uncle.”
“Even if you kill me, you won’t be able to escape!” The man stared at her fiercely, wishing he could skin her alive and teach her a lesson.
Shi Man raised her eyebrows slightly and a mocking smile appeared on her face. Unfortunately, through the mask, the man could not see the change in her expression. Instead, he thought that she was frightened by his words and said even more arrogantly, “Let go of me now and I can consider letting you go. Otherwise, if you kill me, you can only die with me. It won’t do you any good.”
Shi Man had no intention of letting him off. She pressed the gun bolt and smiled casually. “Is that so? Since you’re so confident, why don’t we make a bet?”
The man frowned and asked coldly, “Bet on what?”
Shi Man smiled and said, “Let’s bet if I can leave safely after killing you. If I win, your Hellgate will belong to me. But if I lose, the two of us will have a companion on the road to hell.”
“What a crazy woman,” the man said fiercely. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath as if he was still digesting the fact that he was being threatened by a young girl. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes and said in a gentle tone, “I can agree to hire you to finish off Immaculate, but you have to put down the gun first.”
Shi Man was not fooled. She was almost certain that the man would suddenly capture her the moment she obediently put away the pistol.
Unfortunately, she did not only know how to use these cold iron lumps. Compared to weaponry, she was actually better at close combat! Shi Man was confident in her strength, so she slowly put away her pistol as the man had said.
But in the man’s eyes, all of this became proof of her lack of experience.
The man snorted and suddenly raised his hand to strangle her. A nasty thought involuntarily appeared in his mind.
Even if this woman died here today, she could only blame herself for overestimating herself. She actually dared to hit a rock with an egg and chose to fight him head-on.
The man’s actions, which he thought were fast, became a slow scene in Shi Man’s eyes. She calmly avoided his hand and fired. The bullet accurately brushed past his finger and shot at the wall behind him.
The burning pain immediately came from his hand. The man stared at the girl in disbelief. He did not expect her to really dare to shoot openly here. He immediately raised his hands and pretended to surrender. His throat rolled up and down as he coaxed in a gentle tone, “Didn’t we agree that you would put down the gun?”
Shi Man tilted her head and looked at him in amusement. “You promised to pay me to assassinate Immaculate. What you did just now was to kill me.”
The man’s cold expression was a little broken. He frowned and scolded the secretary outside for being deaf. After repeatedly weighing the current situation, he couldn’t help but smile ingratiatingly. “I wanted to test your strength just now. Now that I’ve confirmed that your skills meet my hiring requirements, I can pay you the deposit.”
“How straightforward.” Shi Man reached out to take the bank card he handed her and glanced at it. “Password?”
“There’s no password.” The man waved his hand and pointed at the pistol that was still pressed against his head. “Can you put down the gun now?”
Shi Man sneered and moved the gun away from his head.
Since ancient times, all those in power cared about their lives. This man in front of them was the best example.
