A swift and decisive victory in the early stages, a post-apocalyptic survival story in America!

The room was tense and eerily quiet.

Roger's face turned deathly pale instantly: "You... what are you doing here? You... are you here to kill me? Because someone killed someone in your name, or is it a kill order on the dark web?"

Li Qi admired this effeminate man. He was able to guess his intentions in such a short time and under such high pressure. His intelligence was exceptionally high.

Li Qi cocked the revolver, extended his arm forward, and aimed at Roger's forehead.

Roger's expression changed again, and he quickly said, "You're going to kill me, then impersonate that assassin to do the deed, and then kill a scapegoat to collect the bounty on the dark web?"

Li Qi was completely convinced.

That's what I think.

Killing Roger proves that the assassin is targeting the mob again, specifically to retaliate against Roger, the instigator. Then, Harry's cousin's body, the impala, and the 8-inch Colt python will serve as evidence.

It is so realistic that it can easily be mistaken for the real thing.

Even if you don't receive the reward money, you can extricate yourself from this matter. This plan is not perfect, but it is still commendable.

Surprisingly, Roger was able to think of it immediately. It has to be said that this veterinarian's brain is truly remarkable.

Li Qi didn't want to listen to his nonsense and was about to pull the trigger immediately. Otherwise, the longer it dragged on, the more attention Harry's cousin's body would attract, and it would be difficult to escape later.

"Wait! Wait! There's a better way! You don't have to kill me!" In this life-or-death situation, Roger's mind raced, and he grasped at a straw.

Ignoring whether Li Qi was listening or not, Roger quickly said, "You can injure me! Then I'll live, and I can vouch for you that you saved me from that assassin! That way, you get your revenge, get the reward, and I keep my life! A win-win-win situation! How about it?"

Li Qi shook his head: "No, to me, the dead are the safest! You've already betrayed me once, I don't trust you!"

Roger quickly added, "No! Don't kill me! I'm ostensibly a veterinarian, but secretly I'm an underground surgeon. Both the underworld and the legitimate world treat gunshot wounds here!"

"I have never hurt anyone, I am a pacifist!"

"Spare my life, and I'll be your most loyal friend and partner. I'm very useful! I know a lot of cops and gangsters; I'm truly invaluable!"

"I can tell you who threw dirty water on you! I can even get information on that assassin for you! Just let me go! Please! I haven't lived enough yet!"

Roger Stern was in tears, almost kneeling down.

He instinctively felt that this overly handsome guy in front of him would really pull the trigger in the next second without the slightest hesitation.

Because this guy's plan was just too perfect.

He's the perfect target. It all started with his red Impala. Kill him, then kill the scapegoat, and you might actually get that bounty on the dark web.

Even if he doesn't get the prize, this crazy, handsome guy can escape this way and will never be remembered by anyone again, because no one except himself knows what this guy looks like.

The looming death drove Roger completely insane; he was capable of saying anything and betraying anyone.

Li Qi released his finger from the trigger and asked curiously, "You didn't do the dirty water attack on me?"

"Of course it wasn't me! I'm just a doctor! I know who it is! I'll tell you the name, and you can let me go!" Clearly, in order to survive, Roger had no bottom line and made his choice almost immediately without any hesitation.

Li Qi was somewhat surprised by Roger's cooperation: "Aren't you afraid of retaliation?"

Roger looked completely innocent: "Retaliate against me for what? What did I do? Besides, I need to survive you first before I can think about anything else, right?"

Li Qi was somewhat impressed with this guy. He shook the muzzle of his revolver, signaling Roger to speak quickly.

"You know the Crippled Gang, right?"

Li Qi rolled his eyes.

Roger knew he was being too long-winded, so he quickly explained, "The Crippled Gang has many branches, and the largest one right now is called the Roland Crippled Gang. The leader is Miles, who is my half-brother..."

"Our relationship is complicated. My mother first married his father and had him and another guy. Then, my mother married my father and had me and my sister."

"Later, my father passed away, and my mother went back to Miles' father's side, so you could say the four of us basically grew up together, you know?"

Roger rambled on and on, never getting to the point. It was unclear whether he was doing it on purpose or if it was just his nature.

Of course, it's also possible that he's afraid of dying and is using this to buy time, hoping for a change in circumstances, which isn't hard to understand.

Li Qi nodded impatiently: "Don't give me that nonsense! You mean Miles ordered this to smear me?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Honey, you're so clever! Miles wanted to integrate the various branches of the Crippled Gang, but negotiations weren't working, so he thought of this method. It creates external pressure and eliminates dissidents at the same time. Isn't that brilliant?"

Li Qi was unimpressed. Such basic tactics were things that our ancestors had been using for five thousand years, and they were nothing new.

"Where does Miles live?"

Roger blinked, and seeing Li Qi's glare, he quickly said, "It's not that I didn't want to tell you, it's just that he never stays in one place, he randomly chooses six or seven addresses, he doesn't get married or date, and he changes girlfriends regularly. He's a very strange person..."

"Then give me all the addresses!"

"Honey, are you going to cause him trouble? I advise you not to go. Miles is terrified of death; he's always surrounded by bodyguards. You won't stand a chance..."

Li Qi was taken aback, realizing the implication in Roger's words: "Why do I get the feeling that you're actually quite worried about me?"

Roger chuckled, "It would be a shame for someone as capable and handsome as you to die. How about... what do you want to do, and I'll help you?"

Li Qi was speechless at his complete lack of principles: "Can you help me kill your half-brother?"

Roger bluntly stated, "I think you're very capable, but your feud with Miles might not end well. How about we discuss it and see if we can reach a consensus? You see, you just drove my car, but you didn't do anything to harm me, right? We have no hatred, we can definitely cooperate, right?"

"I'm guessing you don't want to kill Miles, right? After all, he's a mob boss, and offending him won't end well for you. You're just angry, aren't you? I have a plan, see if it works for you..."

Li Qi, somewhat curious, asked, "Tell me, what's the plan?"

Roger perked up: "Look, how about this? I'll ask Miles for information about the assassin, then you can ambush him, kill him, and get revenge. What do you say?"

Li Qi admired him greatly. He remained calm even when facing a gun and persuaded him with just a few words. Everyone has the same brain size, and he was truly worth having.

only……

Li Qi chuckled: "Using me as a pawn? I kill the assassin, then you help Miles kill me, and then it'll all be a secret? You think you're the only smart person in the world?"

Roger grinned slyly: "I never look down on other people's intelligence, but I think this is good for everyone, isn't it? You got your revenge, vented your anger, and got the money; Miles made a friend of a master; and I gained a handsome and dashing friend. Isn't that—"

"Bang!" The 8-inch Colt Python burst out of a gunfire as Rich pulled the trigger.
