Chapter 95 - 95: Bang
The car shook violently as the accelerator was floored, going so fast it almost took flight!
Purple Summers crouched down under the seat, hitting her forehead on the rough bump, seeing stars! The sound of gunfire and screeching tires filled her ears, making it deafening.
The car suddenly turned and came to an abrupt stop! — Purple awkwardly rolled in the vehicle, feeling dizzy from the impact. Without waiting for her to catch her breath, Alexander yanked her out of the car.
Purple had no idea what was going on as Alexander dragged her into a wooded area by the side of the road, bullets flying everywhere behind them.
Not only was the enemy shooting, but so were Alexander’s men!
This was a full-blown gunfight!
A cold, hard object was stuffed into her hand – a gun!
Alexander had given her a gun!
“Stay here, don’t come out. Shoot if anyone approaches.” He kissed her forehead before quickly pulling away.
Purple’s palms were sweaty.
She had learned to shoot, but that was in a shooting range! Wearing ear protection, shooting at remote-controlled targets, and chatting with Aria Jackson!
She had never experienced anything like this!
A prosecutor’s job was to investigate, file cases, and go to court, not to fight fierce criminals face to face. Even when she faced danger while investigating cases, there were always agile criminal police around her, so she wouldn’t end up in such a predicament!
All because of Alexander!
Alexander would get her killed sooner or later!
The sound of gunfire continued all around her, her pink Hummer riddled with bullet holes. She had no time to feel sorry for her beloved car as she tried to cover her body, avoiding the bullets whizzing past.
The roadside woods were just a green belt along the way, not dense, primordial forests, unable to completely hide a person.
Soon, Purple felt someone rapidly approaching! She tightened her grip on the gun, rolled suddenly to the ground, making the assailant miss! But in the next instant, the attacker grabbed her leg!
Purple’s hair stood on end! Almost without thinking, she shot blindly behind her!
Bang!
The bullet hit the man’s shoulder!
He seemed not to feel the pain, not loosening his grip on Purple’s hand, but rather yanking her toward him! He held her in an armlock!
Purple’s gun-wielding hand was twisted and dislocated! The intense pain made her moan in agony.
—This was a professionally trained assassin!
It suddenly occurred to her, she was no match for a professional killer with her basic martial arts and her small frame!
It seemed the attacker wanted to use her as a hostage to make Alexander hesitate, but would that work? Purple didn’t think Alexander would risk his own safety for her sake.
She had to save herself!
As she was dragged out of the woods by the attacker, the cold barrel of a gun pressed against her head.
The intense gunfire outside gradually became sparse, signaling the end of the battle.
Purple saw Alexander, protected by his men.
His marksmanship was outstanding, and almost every shot found its mark! With a barely noticeable smile at the corners of his mouth, he seemed arrogant and wild to the extreme, as if the sniper attack on him was nothing more than a naive and ridiculous farce.
Purple suddenly felt humiliated! She had become a burden, a burden to the man she hated and despised the most – Alexander!
She saw a slanting tree branch in front of her and thought of a plan, wanting to use the tree to free herself.
Biting her lip and bearing the pain of dislocation, Purple was calculating the best timing, but Alexander was faster than her.
In the evening breeze, the proud and unrestrained man raised his gun at her— Bang!
