Chapter 4 Return Home

At 11:33 p.m., the mercenary leader who was out finally returned to the quiet sewer.

"It seems that the underworld emperor is still abiding by the rules and is not going to do anything to us. It's good news."

The mercenary who smothered Li Buying was humming a song and talking to himself in the sewer. He went straight to the door, ready to tell his two subordinates the good news, and then take them to deliver the goods. After selling the boy, he can live happily for a few months with the money he gets.

When he arrived at the door of the base, the mercenary who was about to open the door suddenly stopped. His expression changed immediately. He moved the night vision goggles on his head to his eyes and opened them. He stepped back carefully to listen to the movement inside.

However, no sound was heard. He could only smell a bloody smell coming out of it.

What happened inside?

The mercenary took off the tennis bag behind him and took out the submachine gun. He held the door handle with one hand and was ready to push in and shoot at any time.

Counting silently in his heart, he suddenly opened the door and turned sideways. Hiding by the wall, he looked into the room with his peripheral vision and aimed his submachine gun at the inside, ready to shoot at any time. But when he found that it was pitch black inside and no one was attacking him, he slightly released the trigger of the submachine gun.

What's going on.

He carefully poked his head inside, but just as he poked his head back, he saw two men lying on the ground and the chaotic room through the night vision goggles. After confirming that there was no one, he still raised his gun and fired a few rounds very carefully before standing in front of the door.

Li Buying was gone.

Looking at the mess on the ground, he was most concerned about his money. Seeing the goods disappear, the angry mercenary took a step inside and just got stuck in the middle of the door frame, the lowest place to move.

At this moment, Li Buying, who was hiding above the pipe, quietly pointed his gun at the mercenary leader,

Bang bang bang——!

Continuous gunshots rang out in the silent sewer. Li Buying's strong wrist strength ensured that the muzzle of the gun did not deviate at all. All the bullets hit the mercenary, and his head and body were immediately riddled with holes. He was shot before he could even react.

The broken body fell down, and the mercenary didn't know what happened until his death. His death was even more hasty than the other two.

"Sure enough, this thing is still quite useful."

Li Buying jumped off the pipe, his eyes suddenly widened, and he knelt on the ground and couldn't stop coughing. A sense of weakness filled his body.

Getting rid of the last guy made him relax immediately. He couldn't hold his breath and was exhausted in an instant. In fact, Li Buying had already exhausted his energy after killing three people. If there was another one, he might fall here.

After taking a few breaths, the sewer was not a suitable place to rest, especially the sewer in New York. No one knew what was inside. Li Buying forced himself to get up and dragged the leader's body into the room without getting blood on his clothes.

He had to find a way to destroy the body, at least to prevent people from guessing that he killed the person. As for Jin Bing, according to the cautious character of this gangster emperor, he should not send anyone to take him away to prevent him from being involved in this matter.

After all, there is no concrete evidence to prove that this mercenary was sent by Jin Bing. When he called, Li Buying kept silent. Jin didn't know whether the mercenary called in front of him or on speakerphone.

In this case, withdrawing is the best choice.

Entering the room and rummaging through the boxes, I think because the mission this time is just to hijack and take away a boy who has just reached adulthood, the three mercenaries did not carry high-powered weapons or extremely high-intensity explosives, only a few grenades.

This situation is very suitable for Li Buying to burn all the evidence with flames, and there are grenades to solve the problem of not being able to burn.

Looking at the pistol in his hand, he finally decided to throw it away to prevent someone from finding him based on the gun. After throwing the gun, Li Buying opened a small box of gasoline and poured it all over the abandoned room, poured the remaining gasoline out of the door, and pulled out a fuse.

After walking far enough, the boy lit the fire line and ran away without looking back. After a while, several huge explosions were heard over there, cleaning up everything that happened in the sewer.

…

In the dark alley near the port in Queens, the manhole cover was opened. The weak Li Buying patted the dust on his body, frowned slightly at the stench on his body, and walked towards home after confirming the direction.

It was drizzling in the sky. The pale boy looked up and enjoyed the quiet rainy night. Walking on the empty street, he felt particularly relaxed.

Too many things happened on this day, but fortunately he was safe and sound in the end. He gained the power of Spider-Man and perfectly completed his first battle. Although he may face more difficulties later, the most difficult and weakest 18 years have passed.

"Huh..."

Putting aside his worries for the time being, Li Buying, who originally wanted to take a bath and sleep, walked back home. Looking at the messy house that had been turned over, he couldn't help but cover his head and quickly began to tidy up to prevent others from finding anything unusual.

After an hour of tidying up, the house was basically restored to its original state. Exhausted Li Buying coughed a few times, took off his clothes and put them in the washing machine to wash. He walked into the bathroom and soaked in the bathtub after clearing his eyes a little, forcing himself not to close his eyes.

There are still many things to do tomorrow, why do I have to go to class...

Li Buying nodded his head, took a shower and quickly changed into pajamas to go to bed. He was in a daze and couldn't think of anything. He planned to tidy up in class early tomorrow morning. Just as he put his hand on the bathroom door, he suddenly stopped there.

Click.

That was the sound of the door lock turning. Someone came in.

Waking up from the daze, Li Buying's nerves were tense again. He was thinking about who came. Listening to the movement below, it seemed that someone sneaked into his house and put something on the ground.

The sound of going up the stairs sounded, and he couldn't help but hold the mop. However, the person saw that the bathroom light was on and quietly walked back to the living room again, hiding behind the curtains. Judging from the footsteps, it should be a woman, wearing a pair of sneakers.

Wait, sneakers, women?

The overly nervous Li Buying remembered something. He forgot that today was his birthday. According to this, the guy would also ask for leave from boarding school or sneak back.

After confirming who it was, he relaxed his tense spirit again, rubbed his temples, opened the bathroom door, pretended to know nothing, went downstairs, sat in the living room and turned on the TV to watch.

Li Buying, whose perception was greatly enhanced, felt the curtains being gently lifted, and a person approached him from behind, covered his eyes with soft hands, and a slightly naughty voice sounded: "Guess who I am?"

"Did you ask for leave or run away? Sweetheart."

The tone was helpless, but Li Buying, who had escaped death today, actually felt strangely relieved when he heard his sister's voice. Yes, it was his adopted sister who came back. He should have thought of it earlier. After all, she and he were the only ones who had the key to the house.

"Don't worry, of course I asked for leave to come back~, Li Buying, don't you believe me?"

The hand covering her eyes moved to her neck and embraced it. The girl with black curly hair poked her head out from the side, her eyebrows slightly raised, and the rest of the words were in English. The three words "Li Buying" were pronounced in a clear and loud voice.

Li Buying responded: "Of course I believe it. How could I not believe my dear sister——"

"Where is Lorna Dane?"
