291: Chapter 287: Gun Barrel Explosion 291: Chapter 287: Gun Barrel Explosion Perched with one leg crossed, Chen Hai, who had been sitting in the chair the whole time, finally slowly stood up.
His expression remained nonchalant, even with a gun muzzle pointed at him, not a trace of worry could be seen on his face.
“Xiaohang, no need to stand in front of me, just a few burning sticks, they can’t harm me at all!”
Patting Bai Xiaohang’s shoulder, Chen Hai said with a smile.
“Boss, I…”
Bai Xiaohang, who had been clamoring for the henchmen from Dafa Pawnshop to shoot him, actually looked a bit tense.
But for an ordinary person like him, to still be able to perform like this under such circumstances was actually very commendable.
After all, many vicious death-row inmates would get weak knees and a pale face due to fear when faced with a firing squad.
Chen Hai seemed to have some objections to the command to move to the side.
However, just as he was about to speak, Chen Hai already waved his hand at him, stopping him from continuing.
“I, for one, dislike it the most when people point guns at me!”
“Congratulations, Ding Laosan, your henchmen just happened to have crossed one of my lines.”
“I have no choice but to give them a little punishment!”
Shifting his gaze away from Bai Xiaohang, Chen Hai looked around at the men holding handguns aimed at him and Bai Xiaohang.
He wore a sly look before drawing back his gaze.
Then, with a twist of his mouth, he spat out a single ‘pop’ sound.
“Bang, bang, bang, bang…”
Just as Ding Laosan and his men were feeling somewhat baffled, the guns in the hands of those armed with them almost exploded simultaneously.
Chen Hai couldn’t control the kinetic energy of the bullets after they were fired.
But, he could ignite the primer of the bullets within the guns directly.
If the bullet that had already been chambered in the gun were to suddenly have its primer ignited, the bullet would automatically be discharged, known as a misfire.
If the ignited bullet was still in the magazine and not yet chambered, it wouldn’t be called a misfire, but an explosion of the chamber instead!
At this moment, these few explosions meant that, without exception, the guns in the hands of Ding Laosan’s henchmen had all exploded.
“My hand, my hand!”
“Damn it, I didn’t even pull the trigger, how could the gun in my hand suddenly explode?”
“F*ck, the batch of guns we bought from Wang Laoer are all defective, three out of five fingers on my hand have been blown off.”
“Stop screaming, a fragment just pierced into my eye, I’m completely blind in this eye!”
…
The armed men cried and howled, the most miserable unlucky one was bleeding profusely from his hand, and his eye was mangled, writhing in agony on the floor.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, the henchmen in the Dafa Pawnshop office, who remained uninjured, showed terror on their faces as they scrambled to carefully lift their injured companions from the ground.
“Who dares to move, I’ll deal with them!” Without the threat of firearms, Bai Xiaohang started to rage unbridled again.
There were still a total of eight uninjured people from Dafa Pawnshop Company.
But Bai Xiaohang?
Picking up a chair next to him, he alone directly threatened the group in front of him.
Perhaps it was because the scene of the guns in the hands of the armed men suddenly all exploding was indeed a bit eerie.
Or perhaps it was Bai Xiaohang’s formidable reputation that indeed held considerable deterrent power over them.
After Bai Xiaohang’s angry shout, the group of guys, looking at each other in turn, actually stopped in their tracks, not daring to make any rash moves.
“Chen Hai, what did you do?” Ding Laosan’s face flickered between anger and uncertainty as he stared intently at Chen Hai.
It had to be said, that scene just now somewhat scared him.
If it was just a single handgun malfunctioning, it could be brushed off as an accident.
But now, the handguns in the hands of his four men had malfunctioned at almost the exact same time, indicating that it was definitely not just an accident.
When the scene of all the handguns malfunctioning was linked to what Chen Hai had just said, even a fool could tell that Chen Hai was inextricably linked to this event.
But there was Chen Hai, right in front of him, who had done no more than utter a “snap” without any other superfluous actions!
Ding Laosan was absolutely convinced that the miserable state of his men, caused by the gun malfunctions, was definitely Chen Hai’s doing!
But how he had accomplished it left Ding Laosan completely baffled, no matter how hard he racked his brains.
The unknown is always the most terrifying.
As soon as he considered that Chen Hai might possess powers beyond his comprehension, cold sweat streamed down Ding Laosan’s forehead, the fine beads of sweat becoming clearly visible.
“What do you think?
Perhaps, you could also think that you’ve been duped into buying inferior guns!”
Neither confirming nor denying, Chen Hai responded with an indifferent smile.
His gaze swept over Ding Laosan in front of him and eventually landed on his waist.
“Ding Laosan, handguns can be quite dangerous.”
“I just don’t understand why some people always like to tuck these things into their waistbands.”
“Don’t they worry that the gun might suddenly malfunction and injure their own ‘brother’?”
Chen Hai gave a light laugh with a face full of implication.
“Ah…” His casual remark terrified Ding Laosan so much that he jumped.
Fumbling, he pulled out his handgun from his waistband and, as if avoiding a viper, hastily threw it on the ground.
His gun was usually kept in the drawer of his office.
It was only because Chen Hai and Bai Xiaohang had suddenly barged into Dafa Pawnshop Company that he had taken the gun out of the drawer and tucked it into his waistband upon leaving his office.
Normally, the gun at his waist was his show of power when facing average people.
But facing Chen Hai, Ding Laosan still felt it was best to throw the thing far away.
After all, if Chen Hai could cause his men’s guns to malfunction, he could certainly do the same to the gun in his hand.
“What a waste to just throw away a perfectly good gun like that!”
With a light sigh, Chen Hai walked over to where Ding Laosan’s discarded gun lay, about seven or eight steps away.
Picking up the handgun, he casually rubbed it.
The entire gun turned red-hot at a speed visible to the naked eye and then was crumpled into a ball of metal by his hands.
As for the bullets originally in the gun, Chen Hai didn’t let them ignite; even if the temperature inside the ball of metal was high, they wouldn’t catch fire.
Truth be told, as long as they were within his control, firearms were no different from a stick used for lighting fires.
Chen Hai wouldn’t allow it; even if the trigger broke, the bullets couldn’t be shot out.
If he so wished, with just a thought, he could make someone else’s handgun explode in their face.
“This…” The sight of the gun he had just thrown away being easily crushed into a ball of metal by Chen Hai was clearly witnessed by Ding Laosan.
Before, he was merely sweating coldly, but now, his entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
