The bullet that shot down Gui Er was the very one Gui Yi had fired, meaning he had killed his own brother!
Gui Yi, the assassin, held his sniper rifle and searched for a long time but couldn't find the opposing sniper's hiding spot. He aimed his crosshairs at Ling Tian again, only to see Ling Tian smiling at him.
A surge of malice washed over Gui Yi, and he pulled the trigger again, aiming at Ling Tian. However, his mind was in disarray. At 800 meters, even a millimeter's deviation in the muzzle could make hitting the target difficult.
Ling Tian didn't even move his head. The bullet whizzed past his scalp.
At this moment, the surrounding diners heard the gunshots and descended into chaos.
Ling Tian directly grabbed Yu Gong Yui's hand and disappeared into the crowd.
"Ali, leave those rats to you!" Ling Tian instructed.
"Haha, no problem, no problem. Catching rats is what Ali does best..."
From the opposite building, Gui Yi's headset crackled with Gui San's voice.
"Brother, what happened? Did you succeed?"
"Mission failed, second brother is dead!" Gui Yi said angrily.
"What, what happened?" Gui San couldn't believe it.
"I missed. There seems to be a sniper opposite. Second brother was sniped! Bring the gear, I'll handle the body, and let's get out of here!"
As Gui Yi spoke, he quickly disassembled his sniper rifle and packed it into its case.
Simultaneously, Gui San arrived. He quickly pulled out a bottle, unscrewed the cap, and a pungent smell of gasoline wafted out.
Gui San directly poured gasoline over Gui Er's face and hands, then took out a lighter and ignited it.
Although this was their first time doing this, they had practiced the post-mission failure procedures countless times. They didn't need to think; it was all second nature.
For a professional killer, if a hit fails, the immediate principle is to escape.
And if there were casualties during an assassination, escaping with the bodies was a foolish act.
However, bodies often contained information that could expose accomplices, hence the need for body disposal.
Gui San poured gasoline directly onto Gui Er's face and burned his fingerprints off his hands. This way, it would be much harder to find his accomplices by identifying Gui Er's appearance and fingerprints.
The fire instantly flared up. Gui Yi and Gui San moved to another side of the building. They attached ropes to two pipes on the rooftop and began rappelling down.
However, after descending only two floors, two kitchen knives suddenly flew out, severing their ropes.
The two were still three floors above the ground. This sudden rope breakage caught them off guard, and they plummeted down.
Gui Yi and Gui San, brothers and well-trained, had their ropes cut mid-air. They desperately twisted their bodies in mid-air, trying to ensure they landed on their backs.
Both brothers had backpacks containing various equipment on their backs. Landing on their backs, the items in their backpacks helped absorb a significant amount of the impact.
"Crack! Crack!" With two crisp sounds, the brothers landed from mid-air. If they hadn't been carrying their backpacks, landing on their backs from such a height would have easily resulted in paralysis.
After landing, the two quickly rolled to the side, using the momentum of their roll to further dissipate the impact of the fall. This was experience honed through prolonged combat.
However, before the brothers could even stand up, a powerful force struck their waists. Ali had already landed and kicked both of them in the lower back.
Ali held nothing back. These two dared to assassinate Ling Tian, which had touched Ali's sensitive spot!
Both men's lumbar vertebrae were kicked and shattered. They immediately lost all sensation from their waists down.
The brothers exchanged a look, knowing escape was unlikely today, and their eyes showed a look of absolute resolve.
Ali, unaware, stepped forward and grabbed both of them by their collars. The two large men, weighing over 300 pounds combined, were as light as down jackets in Ali's hands as she easily brought them onto the yacht.
Ali then threw them directly in front of Ling Tian.
"Done. Ling Tian, there were three assassins. You killed one, and I captured these two alive!"
"Ali, are you sure you captured them alive?" Ling Tian's face showed a playful expression.
Ali quickly looked at the two assassins she was holding. To her surprise, they were already dead!
"Oh no, what happened? I only kicked out their lumbar vertebrae..."
"Ali, how many times have I told you, you must be vigilant when dealing with these assassins. Being overly cautious is not enough. I remember telling you that these assassins have false teeth..."
For assassins and agents alike, their teeth were often modified. The rearmost molars were usually extracted and replaced with false teeth.
These false teeth were hollow. During missions, a capsule containing highly toxic cyanide was placed inside.
If a mission failed and they were captured, to avoid revealing information under torture, agents or assassins would bite down on the capsule, dying within seconds.
The brothers Gui Yi and Gui San, knowing they couldn't escape death today and that falling into Ling Tian's hands would be worse than death, exchanged a look and immediately bit down on the capsules in their false teeth, committing suicide.
Ali, still inexperienced, had forgotten this detail, and could only drag back two corpses.
Just then, there was a commotion around the yacht. Immediately, a large number of soldiers surrounded the entire vessel.
Ling Tian then saw that it was Xiao Arroyo himself who had arrived with his men. Upon hearing reports that Ling Tian had been assassinated, he became furious.
Xiao Arroyo was responsible for Ling Tian's security in Darussalam. If Ling Tian were killed on the street, Xiao Arroyo's reputation would be ruined, and how would the King view him!
"Mr. Ling Tian, are you alright?" Xiao Arroyo asked anxiously.
"I'm fine. Just three assassins, all dealt with. Unfortunately, I was a bit too rough and didn't leave any alive!"
"It doesn't matter if no one is left alive. The relevant departments of our Darussalam country will investigate this matter, identify the culprits, and give you an explanation..." Arroyo said, patting his chest.
