Starting from 40, holding the Star Mall to lead the motherland

Chapter 22 Kerosene Bottle

Hei Hu, along with two brothers who could be trusted with their lives, ambushed on the road that led from Gang Village to the shop.

One of the brothers said, "Brother Hu, is the man you mentioned reliable? The shop assistants in Gangcun are not ordinary people. They all have guns."

Hei Hu said, "She was the one who blew Chen Zhong to death, and Han Yongfeng also died at her hands. Those people in the shop were nothing but minnows to her."

When the younger brother heard this, he said, "She killed Chen Zhong? Big brother, you didn't get tricked by that kid, did you?"

Another brother poked him and said, "What a jerk! He never thinks before speaking."

Black Tiger didn't care about his brothers' doubts and said, "I gave her a bucket of gasoline. If he's a liar, he won't lose anything except feeding mosquitoes all night and losing a bucket of gasoline. If he's true, we can avenge our dead brothers tonight."

After hearing this, everyone felt that it made a lot of sense.

Meanwhile, Han Hui lay on the rooftop and observed, confirming that there were six people in the shop, three of them guarding the warehouse, and three sleeping in the room outside.

After a moment's thought, Han Hui lit her homemade incense stick and slipped it under the door. Then, using the same method, she placed the incense sticks into the warehouse. The warehouse was quite large, so she used three incense sticks.

Han Hui thought the three people in the warehouse would quickly notice something was wrong when they smelled the scent, but they were so engrossed in their card game that they didn't notice until the incense stick was halfway burned. By then, the scent had already filled the entire warehouse.

The leader raised his gun and shouted, "Friend, our boss, Mr. Okamura, has been friends with Major Hirata of the garrison for many years. If you dare to touch anything in our warehouse, Mr. Okamura will not let you go."

There was no sound outside.

The leading man shouted again, "If you leave now, we won't pursue the matter. Otherwise, not only you but also your family will suffer a devastating disaster..."

Before he could finish his words, he collapsed to the ground. His face pale, he said, "This incense is poisonous. I, I have no strength left in my hands and feet. How about you?"

When the other two heard this, they found their hands and feet also became limp, and then they collapsed to the ground.

Han Hui first dealt with the three men in the room before entering the warehouse. She looked at the three men lying on the ground with disdain. Not only were they lacking vigilance, but their fighting ability was also weak. If Black Tiger hadn't been wary of Hirata, the warehouse would have been burned to ashes with just these three men.

Although the three men were powerless, they could still speak: "Good man, we are just trying to make a living, please let us go."

Han Hui didn't waste time talking to them, but cut each one down with a clean, sharp knife. After dealing with the three men, she packed up the warehouse's goods, leaving the boxes untouched. Then, Han Hui poured gasoline on the doors, windows, and shelves.

Throwing a lit match onto the gasoline, a fire dragon shot up from the warehouse with a whoosh and quickly spread.

After leaving the shop, Han Hui found a quiet spot and slipped into her space. She searched for glass bottles in the mall. Seeing the price tag, she was frustrated. A glass bottle cost 0.5 wealth points. Considering a small yellow croaker only costs 30 wealth points, it was ridiculously expensive. She had no idea who came up with these prices; it was a rip-off.

Alas, I have to buy it even if it's expensive. Han Hui asked, "System, I want to buy a thousand glass bottles."

Seeing the wealth value of 1000 in front of her, Han Hui let out a breath. They wanted to charge double the handling fee. It was really too unfair.

I took four large yellow croakers and exchanged them for 1200 wealth points. I bought 1000 glass bottles, and the remaining 200 was automatically deducted to pay off my debt.

Han Hui brought the three barrels of kerosene looted from the Gangcun warehouse to the house by the river, then left after saying she was going to find a glass bottle.

On the other side, Hei Hu saw a huge fire on Zhuangyuan Street and felt relieved. They waited for about twenty minutes and finally saw Gangcun Linzuo.

"boom……"

One of the two brothers led by Heihu was a very accurate shooter. He killed Gangcun Linzuo with just one shot, and did not let go of the bodyguards who protected him.

After solving the problem of Gang Village, Hei Hu took his two brothers to the house where he had agreed to meet Han Hui. When Han Hui returned with 500 bottles, Hei Hu and his brothers were pouring kerosene into the glass bottles.

Han Hui put down the glass bottle in her hand and said, "There are still 500 bottles. I'll go get them now."

While filling the kerosene, Hei Hu asked, "Little brother, what should we do next?"

Han Hui said, "I'll go to the warehouse and the XZF office building, and you guys go to the Japanese expatriates and the traitors."

"it is good."

After more than a thousand bottles were filled with kerosene, Han Hui took away six hundred, leaving the rest to Hei Hu. Then, the two sides went their separate ways.

"Crack, crack, crack..."

Suddenly, the Japanese soldiers patrolling the granary noticed many glass bottles falling from the sky. After these bottles fell, they spontaneously combusted.

"Oh no, there's an enemy attack..."

Before they could put out the fire, dozens of kerosene bottles fell from the sky.

The Japanese soldiers patrolling outside the granary soon discovered Han Hui and shot at her, but all their shots missed.

Han Hui tossed three uncorked grenades between them. Each patrol consisted of ten men, and when the grenades exploded upon landing, four men lost consciousness, three were seriously injured, and the remaining three were unharmed.

One of the uninjured people got up and tried to chase Han Hui, but was stopped by the person next to him: "You're trying to kill yourself! Get down now."

"Brother, aren't we going to chase them?"

The man groaned and said, "Why are we chasing him? This guy might be related to the grain theft case. We'll just die if we chase him."

"But if the higher-ups investigate..."

The man's back burned, and beads of sweat fell from his face in pain. "Can't you just pretend to be unconscious? We were all knocked unconscious by the explosion. Even if the Queen investigates, at most she'll give us a beating and a fine, but she won't kill us."

Who wants to die when they can live? Even if they are so strong-willed, they would never become traitors. This man listened to the advice and immediately lay back on the ground, pretending to be unconscious.

The other team followed suit.

Seeing that they didn't catch up, Han Hui changed to another roof and continued throwing kerosene bottles into the granary.

It was also thanks to the fact that there were many houses and alleys near the granary. If it was like a garrison with empty areas in front, behind, and on all sides, it would not work.

If these bottles fall on the ground, the fire will be extinguished after they burn out; but if they fall on houses or people, the fire will grow bigger and bigger.

One Japanese soldier was unlucky enough to have a bottle land on his head, knocking him unconscious. The fire then caused him to wake up in pain. His patrol companions saw this and poured water from their canteens on the fire. However, the fire only intensified, and the unlucky soldier rolled on the ground in agony, cursing and shouting for help before finally succumbing.

Everyone was horrified. What could this be? Watering the fire didn't put it out, and it only grew bigger. It was late at night. Could this be a ghost?

One of the timid Japanese soldiers shouted out: "Ghost, this is a will-o'-the-wisp..."
