Chapter 156: Chapter 156 “Family” Decision

“What help could that guy possibly be…”

Fatty grumbled dissatisfiedly and, with great reluctance, got up and headed towards the master bedroom.

The middle-aged man was resting in the master bedroom.

The side effects of that pill were still quite significant.

Even after taking it and successfully getting through it,

for some time afterward, they could experience a range of adverse reactions including lethargy, vomiting and diarrhea, drowsiness, and a rash all over the body.

...

What adverse reactions would appear depended on the physical condition of the person taking the medication, and they would occur randomly.

Those in good physical shape might only have one or two adverse reactions, while it was common for all of them to manifest simultaneously in those with poor health.

The middle-aged man had good physical condition, so drowsiness was his only adverse reaction.

It was the mildest among all the possible side effects.

Reluctantly, Fatty kicked open the door to the master bedroom. Surprisingly, he managed to create a large hole in the solid wood door with just one kick.

This demonstrated just how powerful that kick from Fatty was.

He was also a contender of strength.

The loud noise from breaking the door instantly woke the middle-aged man.

With a “whoosh,” the middle-aged man performed a carp flip, leaping straight out of the soft, large bed.

Seeing this, Fatty was also stunned.

“What the hell?”

Fatty blurted out instinctively.

“I really underestimated you.”

Fatty looked at the middle-aged man with a face full of surprise.

A carp flip is a move requiring a certain level of technique.

It’s relatively easier to do on a hard surface.

But on a soft one, it becomes much more difficult—it’s not even on the same level of challenge.

And yet there was the middle-aged man, performing a carp flip and standing straight up, followed by a somersault that took him from the bed to the floor.

Observing the combat stance that the middle-aged man took, Fatty blinked and nodded his head in approval.

Not bad, he clearly had received professional training.

He was someone who really knew Kung Fu.

He might actually be of some help.

At the very least, he could serve as cannon fodder later!

When the middle-aged man saw Fatty, he blinked, relaxed, and also dropped his fighting stance.

“Brother Fatty, is there something you need?”

The middle-aged man looked at Fatty, puzzled.

“There are cops outside, come out and lend a hand,”

Fatty said succinctly.

As he spoke, he also gestured with his lips towards the outside.

“Sure!”

Upon hearing Fatty’s words, the middle-aged man nodded and responded, then walked towards the door.

“Skinny Bro, what do you need me to do?”

Approaching the non-mainstream youth, the middle-aged man humbly inquired.

Obviously, under the effect of the pill, the middle-aged man had entirely lost himself, becoming a subservient henchman to the two, the fat and the thin.

The non-mainstream youth sized up the middle-aged man and after pondering for a moment, handed his gun to the middle-aged man and asked, “Do you know how to use this?”

The middle-aged man took the gun, skillfully engaged the safety, ejected the magazine, then slapped it back in and turned the safety off again. He looked toward the non-mainstream youth and said, “I do, I learned overseas.”

Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, both the non-mainstream youth and Fatty were taken aback.

They hadn’t expected to so casually stumble upon a treasure. Regardless of how well the middle-aged man could shoot, he was definitely qualified to serve as cannon fodder.

If it weren’t for the current special circumstances, the non-mainstream youth really would hate to waste such a talent as mere cannon fodder.

Able to shoot, skilled in combat, and capable of making money, with a little training, he’d be a core member of any team.

“Good, have you fired it before?”

The non-mainstream youth nodded and inquired.

“Yes, I’ve fired at targets and hunted!”

The middle-aged man answered naturally.

“Good, very good!”

Upon hearing this, the unconventional youth nodded in satisfaction.

“You’ll come with us in a bit, and when you see the cops, start shooting. You have to be steady, accurate, and ruthless, no hesitation.”

“We have to fight our way out if we want to escape to heaven.”

The unconventional youth spoke earnestly.

“Mm, I got it!”

The middle-aged man nodded and responded.

…

“Captain, what should we do?”

Seeing no movement in the room for a long time, one of the team members asked the deputy captain.

The deputy captain’s gaze was grave as he looked at the security door and wooden door. He knew that today’s event was not going to end well. His team, the Second Unit, might just follow in the footsteps of the First Unit of the Major Case Unit.

A narrow space meant it was easy to defend but hard to attack.

The security door and wooden door blocked the way, and just breaching these two doors might cost them dearly.

“Where’s the backup?”

The deputy captain asked solemnly.

“It’s rush hour now, stuck halfway there.”

“Due to a traffic accident, our brother departments, coordinating and assisting, can’t get through. We don’t know how long it will take for them to arrive.”

The team member beside him answered with a wry smile.

Upon hearing this, the deputy captain’s gaze grew even heavier.

“This traffic accident is quite bizarre!”

The deputy captain murmured to himself.

…

In the room!

The unconventional youth put down his phone and looked at Fatty and the middle-aged man.

“One piece of good news and one piece of bad news, which do you want to hear first?” the unconventional youth said with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Fatty was stunned.

Then he cursed, “Skinny Monkey, what the hell are you doing playing coy at a time like this?”

The middle-aged man remained silent.

Hearing Fatty’s words, the unconventional youth rolled his eyes and said, “The good news is, the family pulled some strings to hold up the cops’ backup on the road.”

“The bad news…”

“The family wants us to figure out our own escape; they can’t send us support.”

“Our location was compromised because something went wrong at the hotel.”

“Axi and Han Xue were exposed, with Axi getting the attention of the Major Case Unit of the Criminal Investigation Team. After a fierce shootout, including the captain Song Lin and the deputy head Luo Fei of the Major Case Unit, a total of four people were injured by Axi and rushed to the hospital. Axi was also shot and captured on the spot by the Major Case Unit.”

“As for Han Xue, she ran away immediately upon receiving Axi’s call for help, not bothering with Axi. She’s now nowhere to be found and hasn’t contacted the family at all.”

The unconventional youth relayed the intelligence he had just received after contacting his family to Fatty and the middle-aged man.

Upon hearing the unconventional youth’s words, the middle-aged man was still silent, but Fatty couldn’t sit still anymore.

“Damn it, isn’t this just leaving us to fend for ourselves?” Fatty exclaimed angrily, smashing a fist against the bathroom door. The glass sliding door of the bathroom shattered instantly, scattering pieces all over the floor.

But Fatty’s hand wasn’t hurt in the slightest.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man finally reacted, his pupils contracting.

Fatty had a solid punch!

Not even the glass shards cut him.

“Fatty, there’s nothing that can be done about it.”

“The family really is having trouble, so we’ll have to solve it ourselves.”

“Only by breaking out can we have a way to survive.”

The unconventional youth said gravely.

Upon hearing this, Fatty’s gaze flickered, as if he was contemplating something.
