Chapter 36: Missing a life
She didn't know who was hiding in the dark and shooting her, but he definitely wanted her life.
In order to fire a few more shots before the police arrived, the other party put a silencer on the gun.
Xu Youyou recalled carefully that she had been in New York City for so many days, but she had only really offended two people. One was Xi Ruier, because of Lu Jingyao; the other was Denard, who ruined the other party's porcelain scam.
[The task of picking up leaks has been started. The host is requested to arrive at the designated location as soon as possible. 】
Xu Youyou:?
"Tongzi, do you still have to miss this point?" Xu Youyou asked.
[Missing target: a small life. There are no special rewards for completing the mission. 】
Xu Youyou immediately changed her face in Sichuan Opera: "Tongzi, I knew you were the best system in the world!"
As the shooting continued, Xu Youyou acted almost completely in accordance with the system's instructions.
The shooter hiding not far away frowned: "You told me to kill an ordinary person."
The person next to me was sweating profusely: "She is just a little Chinese girl. Who would have thought that she would be so nimble..."
"Does she know Chinese Kung Fu? I can only do my best. Besides, even if the person is not shot, you still have to pay the balance." The shooter said with an indifferent expression.
In their sight, Xu Youyou was as flexible as a monkey. She was one step faster than a bullet almost every time.
There wasn't even a small cut on her body, but those Taobao hunters who besieged her before were unlucky. Under the intensive bullet attack, many of them were covered in paint and lay on the ground wailing.
"Save me! Save me!"
"I don't want to die yet!"
The bullets finally stopped.
Xu Youyou didn't know that the shooter's magazine was empty. She was still hiding in a blind corner and didn't dare to come out at all.
After a long time, the ambulance arrived, and there were no more shots.
Xu Youyou was not in trouble, but among the three bodyguards she brought over, the local bodyguard was shot in the shoulder.
The injured were taken to the hospital, and everyone else went to the police station.
Although Xu Youyou's local bodyguard had a gun, he didn't fire a single shot. She evaded the entire process, so she was released after the transcript was completed.
"Are there many shootings?" Xu Youyou asked the driver, who is a local.
The driver shook his head: "It's not that many, about once a month."
Xu Youyou fell silent. Is once a month too little?
The driver put on an experienced look again and said, "Ms. Xu, I won't drive for you tomorrow. You must have provoked someone, and bullets have been chasing you."
After Xu Youyou passed today, she didn't dare to stay here anymore.
She was thinking about whether she should buy a plane ticket to return home immediately instead of staying here and waiting for the missing person to be picked up.
[The task of picking up leaks has been started, please reach the target location as soon as possible (the destination is close, the host can choose to walk there)]
Xu Youyou looked at the system prompt that had just been displayed and thought to herself, it seemed that it had only been an hour or two since the last missed mission?
Oh, the last time I picked it up, I saved my own life, so that’s okay.
Although she couldn't wait to return home immediately, she still couldn't help but feel excited when she saw the newly refreshed tasks.
After leaving the police station, she followed the system instructions with two bodyguards and walked through the streets of New York City.
She was betting that the person behind the assassination would not launch a second assassination in the short term.
She thought the destination the system told her was close to the truth, but she didn't expect to walk five kilometers in one breath.
Ultimately the system's instructions point to a dead end.
Although the two bodyguards following behind him didn't understand Xu Youyou's behavior, they didn't ask any more questions. Xu Youyou walked hesitantly to the end of the street, where there was a smelly trash can.
"Are you going through the trash again?" Xu Youyou asked the system.
The system pointer poked straight into the trash can.
Xu Youyou feels that her "trash picking up" personality seems to be getting heavier and heavier.
But this time she had two people with her, and she said directly: "Add another five hundred yuan and empty the contents of this trash can."
The two bodyguards worked hard and hard. Compared with other employers, Xu Youyou had very little to do. They stepped forward to lift the trash can and empty it out without changing their expressions.
The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground reached the ears of the three of them.
The top layer of the trash can is full of kitchen garbage, some expired and spoiled food, and the bottom layer is a heavy object packed in a sack.
It looked full, and there was already a layer of blood stains on the surface of the sack.
A certain bodyguard reached out and touched it, and then his expression changed: "It's a human!"
Could it be a corpse?
Xu Youyou was so frightened that she took two steps back on the spot.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
She resisted the urge to run away and asked the bodyguard to open the bag.
When the bag was opened, the first thing that caught the eye was short black hair. Judging from the exposed skin, he seemed to be a Chinese man.
The bodyguard turned the man's face over, and his face was full of surprise: "Miss Xu, this is Mr. Lu, he is still angry!"
Xu Youyou:......
Xu Youyou looked at Lu Jingyao, who was now covered in bloodstains, half dead with his eyes closed, and half of his body still wrapped in a sack. It was really difficult to connect the man in front of him with the man who was as dazzling as the sun a few days ago.
What's this? The golden sun turns into a gray trash can rat?
Xu Youyou was scared: "He was killed and dumped? He was thrown into the trash can, and his mobile phone and locator were all thrown away. No wonder his people couldn't find him anywhere."
The bodyguard sighed: "It is too dangerous abroad. Miss Xu, if you are going to stay in the United States these days, you should hire more local bodyguards when you go out."
After Xu Youyou accompanied the ambulance to take the person to the hospital, and after Lu Jingyao's subordinates arrived, she explained the situation clearly and stopped taking care of it.
When she left the hospital, Lu Jingyao did not wake up. Instead, he was lying in the intensive care unit with many tubes inserted into his body.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the task of picking up missing items. The specific rewards will be distributed by the task target. 】
Xu Youyou didn't bother with the system when she saw this prompt. Lu Jingyao was rich. She saved his life this time, and she would definitely benefit from it.
"Go back to the country, go back to the country! Hurry back to the country!" Xu Youyou immediately booked a flight ticket when she arrived at the hotel. The nearest flight was in three hours. Xu Youyou just wanted to return home overnight.
After so many days, Song's mother was exhausted, so the Song family's mother and son chose to return to China with her.
Because Song's mother was in good health, Xu Youyou didn't spend a lot of money on a private jet when she returned. Instead, she bought first-class air tickets for all the people accompanying her.
But as soon as she stepped onto the plane, before she could lie down, another system notification sounded in her ears.
[The task of picking up leaks has been started. Please reach the target location as soon as possible. 】
Two days ago, Xu Youyou was looking forward to starting the task of picking up leaks, but these days were too ups and downs. She was really tired looking at the intensively refreshed system tasks.
"Let me rest for a while and get some sleep first, okay?" Xu Youyou asked.
But what she responded to was the system's flashing red light.
[The task of picking up leaks has been started. Please reach the target location as soon as possible. 】
This line of words kept flashing in Xu Youyou's eyes, which seemed to mean that she would not stop until she took action.
