Chapter 247: Chapter 247 Smart Maniac? The enemy of the Long Family?

Translator: Doggotranslation 

The deliberately suppressed voice of the costume mask man was like the whistling noise caused by the god of death when he was wielding his Scythe. It was not loud, but it was screaming with the breath of death, which made people shudder in fear, “Don’t think about running away, don’t think about resisting, if you don’t want to end up like Long Xiaotian, please be obedient. . .”

This voice. . . It was him who interrupted Long Xiaotian’s speech and shot him to death, it was this masked man! It turned out that Long Xiaotian was shot by this person from behind. No wonder the blood shot out from his forehead. Thinking of Long Xiaotian’s death, I couldn’t help but shudder. At the same time, I also felt a little strange. I always felt that the masked man’s voice was a little familiar. . .

The few people who appeared with Long Xiaotian were all big shots, right? Sure enough, one of the elegant men stood up and said calmly, “My friend, are you doing it for the money? How much do you want? As long as you don’t hurt the innocent, I will give you money. . .”

“Bang!” Before he finished speaking, he was shot in the thigh by the masked man and kicked off the stairs. “Your life now belongs to me. It’s up to me to decide whether to sell it to you or not. Don’t talk to me in a condescending manner. You are in no position to negotiate with me.”

Mo Fei did not dare to look at the bloody scene. She buried her face in my arms after letting out a soft scream. Her body trembled violently like a frightened little rabbit, while Dong Xiaoye reached her hand into her handbag. I hurriedly grabbed her wrist and signaled her not to act rashly.

I didn’t know how many policemen were in this hall, but I didn’t think there was any need for Dong Xiaoye to be the first one to come out. If she wasn’t careful enough, what she lost would be her life.

From the time the masked man appeared, he gave me a familiar feeling. What was happening? Have I met with this guy before?

In order to cooperate with Long Yifan to make a surprise appearance, all the curtains in the hall were closed, making it impossible to observe the situation inside the hall from outside.

After the gunman by the window opened the curtain slightly and checked the situation outside, he frowned and said to the masked man who just kicked the person off the second floor, “Shit! Brother Heng, there are cops outside. We are surrounded by them. What do we do?”

Huh? From his words, it seemed like they did not expect that the police would show up. So, the report letter was not sent to the police by them?

The masked man said calmly, “Don’t panic, it’s probably the Long family who called the police. Huh! Acting one way in the open and another way in secret has already been their style.”

Acting one way in the open? Another way in secret? Has always been their style? What did he mean?

Hearing that the police had already arrived outside, Mo Fei calmed down a lot. But seeing the masked man was very calm, and he even ridiculed the Long family, her pretty face was still very pale. She was a clever woman. From the reaction of the masked man, she could guess that the situation was under the masked man’s control. It was because he was confident that they were able to escape, that was why he didn’t panic.

While talking, the masked man had walked to the side of the cake trolley. He reached out his hand that was wearing black leather gloves, grabbed a handful of cream, then squatted down with a frantic smile, and wiped it on Long Yifan’s face that was full of horror, “Master Yifang, do you understand it now? That threatening letter was not someone’s prank, but my careful plan, because I knew from early on that with the arrogance and self-righteousness of your Long family, instead of canceling today’s birthday banquet, you definitely would invite more guests, and host an even bigger banquet, so everyone could see that Long Xiaotian was not scared of anyone. Hahahaha, but what happened now?”

The masked man stood up, pulled off the gloves covered with cake, and threw it on Long Yifan’s face. Then he laughed, “O! Dear honorable guests, maybe some of you don’t have a close friendship with the Long Family, and you came here reluctantly because of the invitation and the reputation and status of the Long Family. But I want to tell you that although all of this is a trap I set up, I have warned Long Xiaotian already. If the Long family took the threatening letter I sent them recently seriously, then there would be no banquet tonight at all, and you would not be here at all. None of you would’ve been my hostages if he had listened. Do you know why the Long family insisted on holding a banquet and unexpectedly invited you who have no close relationship with them? The reason for this is simple! The Long family thought that some of you are jealous of him and his Long group, and that the person who sent the threatening letter is actually among you; so he must show you he was not scared of any of you, hahahaha, but what is the result now? I am very grateful to the Long Family’s invitations, because it has brought me more wealth!”

Although no one responded to the triumphant show-off or provocation of the masked man, I believed that the vast majority of people had already cursed the Long family in their minds like me.

God damn it, if Guo Xiang hadn’t received the invitation, would he bring me here? And if I didn’t come, how could I fall into this dangerous situation?

Although Lao Guo and Xingyu, the culprits who dragged me here, were lucky that they had left the party already, I didn’t have the slightest resentment towards them. On the contrary, I was still a little grateful to him. Because of him, I could encounter Mo Fei and Dong Xiaoye here. . .

From the words of the masked man, I could get a certain message – he had a good understanding of Long Xiaotian’s character, and the possibility of deliberately targeting the Long family was very high!

Although Long Yifan’s head was pointed by a gun, he still gritted his teeth and wanted to show that he was not scared of them. His hoarse voice trembled a little. I didn’t know whether it was because of the pain of losing his father or the pure fear, but his eyes were obviously shining with the light of hatred. “I don’t know who you are, and I don’t know what deep hatred you have with my family, but the guests here are innocent. Don’t involve them. After you let them go, you can vent all your hatred toward me!”

Long Yifan was indeed not an ordinary man. Of course, I didn’t believe that he was not afraid of death. He knew that the masked man would not let anyone go, so he deliberately said this kind of awe-inspiring remark. The purpose was to save the Long family’s face. Otherwise, even if they were able to escape from danger tonight, the Long Family would not be able to continue to do their business smoothly in the business circle in the future. Moreover, the head of the family, Long Xiaotian, had died here. Long Yifan must quickly establish the image of a new head. . . It was really admirable that he could think that far, but I still believed that the only thing he should consider now was how to escape from here. What Long Yifan was thinking was too impractical!

If he couldn’t keep his life. It was useless to have an image!

“Oh? Don’t involve the innocent? Doesn’t it seem ridiculous to say this sentence from your mouth? !” The masked man shot through Long Yifan’s arm while he was laughing, and suddenly said furiously, “You’re right. I have a deep hatred for your family, and it’s a blood feud! Long Yifan, do you know why I just killed your old man? Because unlike your family, I would not get innocent people involved!”

“Of course, I am the one who will define who is ‘innocent’ or not, not you!” The attitude of the masked man was like a roller coaster, changing so drastically like a lunatic. However, even if he was a lunatic, he was a smart one, “the distinguished guests of long Xiaotian, as long as you are obedient, you are innocent people. Otherwise, if you dare to make me angry. . . Hehe, and you, dear Master Yifan, don’t try to act smart and don’t play tricks with me. There is no need to show off your hypocritical courage and kindness in front of others. Otherwise, you will become the first person that is not innocent.”

Long Yifan’s face changed drastically. It seemed that my preconceived impression of him coincided with the masked gunman’s impression of him, and both of our impressions of him were very accurate. Long Yifan didn’t want to deny it. But the masked man seemed to want to take off Long Yifan’s hypocritical face.

He smiled and said, “You want to prove that you are not hypocritical? Okay, I can give you a chance, as long as you repeat what you said just now, I will let go of all the people in this lobby you think are innocent, but. . . I will kill you! Because we hate righteous heroes!”

The eyes of the masked man suddenly lit up, shining the endless expectations. When he said those words, he didn’t say it with an intimidating tone, but a tone that sounded like he was trying to tempt Long Yifan to say it. It seemed that he was just looking for a reason to kill Long Yifan.

Long Yifan gritted his teeth and endured the pain. Blood had already flowed out from his fingers, but he didn’t make a painful groan. Although he wanted to show that he was not scared of them, he didn’t want to sacrifice himself for other people. In the end, he still didn’t dare to repeat what he had just said and diverted the conversation. “This place has been surrounded by the police. You only have six people. Even if you use us as hostages, you will not be able to get out. . .”

“No, I can get away,” the masked man snorted contemptuously, kicked Long Yifan in the face and said, “Not only do I have you as hostages, but I have also planted remote-controlled bombs throughout the manor. As long as I press it. . .”

There were bombs? My first reaction was that he was lying! Because he had no time to plant the bombs. How would the police and the Long family let them plant the bombs? Did he think that they were idiots? However, his confidence and the crazy laugh of his companions made me uncertain about my guess. . .

The man in the mask took out a cell phone-like device from his pocket with his left hand. With a click of his thumb, a loud “bang” suddenly appeared, causing the huge chandelier on his head to sway. The thick curtains couldn’t cover the fire in the yard. Dong Xiaoye and I trembled. Mo Fei screamed in fear as she desperately tried to squeeze into my arms as if my arms were the safest place in the world at this moment. In the desperate screams of the guests, several gunmen whistled smugly, as if mocking the people who were shouting and screaming outside. . .

This group of lunatics had really planted bombs! Judging from the location of the explosion, it should be the place where the vehicle was parked in front of the yard. God damn it! What kind of revenge was this? This was clearly a terrorist attack! Who did the Long Family offend? Al Qaeda or Chechen armed forces? !

The police did not expect it to be this serious at all. If it was just with the number of police officers outside the mansion, they would not have the ability to rescue the hostages! The situation was much worse than I expected. . .
