HUN Chapter 120: Accidental Murder!

At the same time, she pulled out a compact Ruger LCP pistol from under the sofa and decisively returned fire in the motorcycle man's direction!

The bullet hit the wall next to the motorcycle man, sending wood chips flying!

The motorcycle man was also startled by this sudden counterattack and immediately dodged behind a large bookshelf.

"You damn bitch!"

He cursed angrily, "You think you can take me on with that little toy? Hand over the hard drive quickly, and I can let you die a bit more painlessly!"

Emily hid behind the sofa, breathing heavily. She knew she only had a few bullets left and had to find an opportunity.

She leaned out again and fired "Bang! Bang!" two shots toward the bookshelf, trying to hit the target.

The motorcycle man immediately returned fire from behind the bookshelf, shooting twice at the sofa!

"Click! Click!"

After the gunshots, both fell silent simultaneously. They were both out of bullets!

The motorcycle man immediately crouched down and began pulling a spare magazine from his pocket.

This was it!

Lin Yu'an had been waiting for this moment!

Like a leopard descending from above, he didn't take the stairs but leaped directly from the second-floor railing!

"Boom!"

His superhuman physical abilities, carrying tremendous impact force, crashed down on the motorcycle man who was reloading his magazine the instant he landed!

The motorcycle man let out a muffled grunt, his entire body sent flying, and both his gun and magazine flew from his hands.

Before he could react, Lin Yu'an quickly followed up and yanked off his helmet!

"Bang! Bang!"

Two powerful front kicks precisely struck the motorcycle man's temples and jaw! But he held back his strength slightly, knowing how strong his golden finger-enhanced physical abilities were! He was afraid one kick might cause a brain hemorrhage.

The motorcycle man didn't even have time to scream before his eyes rolled back and he collapsed like a puddle of mud, completely unconscious.

The living room instantly returned to deathly silence, the air filled with the smell of gunpowder.

Lin Yu'an looked at the motorcycle man lying like a puddle of mud and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

He flexed his wrists, which were somewhat sore from the sudden burst of action, preparing to check on Emily's condition.

Suddenly, a crisis sense stronger than when the motorcycle man had pointed a gun at him earlier struck like an ice-cold tide from behind!

He spun around abruptly, his pupils instantly contracting.

Emily had somehow picked up the silenced Glock pistol that the motorcycle man had dropped on the floor.

The black muzzle was pointing steadily at his chest across a coffee table!

"Don't move!"

Emily's voice was ice-cold and alert. Though her breathing was rapid, her hands holding the gun were steady as rock.

"Hey, calm down! I came to help you!"

Lin Yu'an immediately raised both hands, making the internationally recognized gesture indicating he had no hostile intent.

His muscles instantly tensed, ready to respond to any sudden situation.

"Help me?"

A cold, mocking smile appeared at the corner of Emily's mouth, her eyes full of scrutiny and suspicion.

"What a performance. A perfect hero-saves-the-beauty act. First appearing just when my car broke down, showing off your repair skills."

"Then appearing like a divine savior at my most dangerous moment! Are you two working together? Your ultimate goal is still that hard drive, isn't it!"

Lin Yu'an cursed internally. He really shouldn't have meddled in others' affairs!

Lin Yu'an's golden finger-enhanced neural reaction speed had already made him act!

With his instinctive danger prediction, he made a lateral leap far beyond normal human imagination, lunging hard toward the nearby sofa!

Then, before Emily could react, he grabbed a water glass from the table and accurately hit her gun-holding hand. The gun flew away.

Emily only saw a blur before a massive, oppressive force crashed into her.

Her entire body fell backward, landing heavily on the soft carpet!

Before she could react, Lin Yu'an had pinned her down with his powerful body.

His movements were lightning-fast. One hand firmly gripped Emily's gun-holding wrist and twisted outward with force. "Click!" The pistol fell from her hand and he kicked it away.

His other hand swiftly restrained both her hands behind her back, while his knee firmly pressed down on her constantly struggling legs.

"Let me go! You bastard!" Emily struggled violently, trying to knee him and twist her body.

But under Lin Yu'an's absolute physical suppression, all her resistance seemed futile.

Lin Yu'an held her immobilized, unable to move, then leaned down. His hot breath almost touched her ear as he growled in a voice suppressing anger.

"Can you calmly listen to me now! I saw that motorcycle rider following you and felt something was wrong, so I followed! Your car was sabotaged on purpose."

"That relay connector terminal was corroded by electrolytic solution with a catalyst, that's why it was intermittent! I jumped in from the second floor and saw everything, same as you!"

Feeling the hot breath by her ear, the man's unquestionable tone, and the helpless feeling of being completely physically restrained and unable to move, Emily's struggles finally gradually stopped.

Her chest rose and fell violently, the hostility in her eyes gradually replaced by reason and contemplation.

"I'll trust you for now, but I still need to call the police! If you're really not a bad person, please help me call the police."

She panted, her voice somewhat hoarse, and her face flushed red from lack of oxygen and embarrassed anger.

"Also... can you get off me first?"

Only then did Lin Yu'an realize how inappropriate their position was.

Emily was only wearing a close-fitting thin cashmere sweater and yoga pants at home, and during the recent struggle, her clothing had become disheveled.

Her originally pale face showed an unusual flush, and her eyes became somewhat meaningful.

Lin Yu'an immediately felt embarrassed and quickly got up from her as if burned, standing aside.

Emily also tidied her clothes and slowly sat up from the floor.

The awkward atmosphere didn't last long as they began discussing how to handle this mess.

"Who is he?" Lin Yu'an pointed at the unconscious motorcycle man.

"My ex-boyfriend's business partner."

Emily's expression became cold again, "We once invested money in Bitcoin together. Later, Bitcoin prices rose dramatically."

"My ex-boyfriend then died in a car accident during a trip. The police said it was an accident, but I know it must have been him!"

"Let's call the police," Emily suggested.

"Armed home invasion with intent to murder. That's enough to put him away for life."

"Alright, I'll tie him up first to prevent him from fighting back if he wakes up."

Lin Yu'an agreed. He walked to the motorcycle man's side, looking for rope to bind him.

But after searching the room for a long time, he couldn't find suitable rope.

Lin Yu'an removed the belt from his waist, preparing to use it to bind the man's hands.

Just as he bent down, before the belt even touched the man's wrists, the previously unconscious man suddenly opened his eyes wide, his body springing up like a spring, and his right hand actually held a dagger!

He immediately stabbed toward Lin Yu'an! Lin Yu'an hadn't expected him to wake up so quickly! His earlier force had been too light!

But Lin Yu'an's reaction was faster! Without even thinking, he quickly dodged the dagger attack, and his instinctive right fist shot out like a cannonball!

This time he didn't deliberately control his strength, using full force to hammer heavily on the man's temple again!

"Bang!"

After a dull impact sound, the world became quiet.

The man's body stiffened, then collapsed like a noodle.

Soon Lin Yu'an realized something was wrong! The motorcycle man's body began to twitch slightly, and soon lost all breath...

Emily covered her mouth, letting out a suppressed cry of shock.

Lin Yu'an was also stunned. He looked at his own fist, then at the motionless corpse on the floor, and a chill rose from his feet.

He had killed someone! His uncontrolled strength was enough to reach professional fighter levels!

At this moment, countless solutions flashed through his mind. Calling the police was definitely out of the question! He had no legitimate reason for entering Emily's home and killing someone.

This would never hold up in court! He had a high probability of going to prison! So absolutely, absolutely could not call the police!

He looked at the corpse on the floor, then at the only witness beside him: Emily.

A cold killing intent uncontrollably rose from his heart! If... if he also...

Emily seemed to sense the suddenly extremely dangerous aura emanating from him. Her body instinctively shrank back, her eyes filled with fear, her hand unconsciously reaching for her own Ruger pistol not far away.

How could Lin Yu'an let her succeed?

He turned expressionlessly, pretending to draw a gun from his back waist, but actually with a thought, the already-loaded Glock 19 appeared in his hand.

The black muzzle instantly aimed at Emily!

"Don't move." His voice was colder than Alaska's frigid wind.

Emily's body completely froze.

Lin Yu'an stepped forward and used his own belt to bind Emily's hands behind her back, also tying her feet together.

Then he walked out the door, first storing that black dirt bike from the yard into his space, then taking out his Zongshen three-wheeler from his space, along with several meters of huge black plastic sheeting.

When he returned to the room with the plastic sheeting, Emily's eyes were filled with despair.

She watched Lin Yu'an spread the plastic sheeting in the center of the living room, trembling all over with fear.

She thought he was going to dispose of her and that corpse like trash.

Earlier when facing the motorcycle man, she still had the courage to resist because she felt he wouldn't really kill her before getting what he wanted.

But Lin Yu'an was different. He now had a reason to kill and silence witnesses!

"Don't kill me!" Emily's voice carried a sobbing tone, completely breaking down.

"Stan and I are friends! He even mentioned you to me! Said you were a good person!"

"For Stan's sake, and George's, please don't kill me!"

"I... I can give you money! The hard drive! The hard drive is under the fireplace! Just break open the floor tiles and you'll see it! It contains the private keys for 300 Bitcoins! I'll give you everything! Everything!"

She looked at Lin Yu'an, her eyes filled with pleading, "I can also do anything for you! Aren't you... aren't your hormones very active? I... I can help you..."

Lin Yu'an looked at her coldly. Hearing her mention Stan and George, the killing intent in his heart gradually receded.

He thought of their selfless help, of how they had repeatedly praised veterinarian Emily for helping them.

Moreover, he had originally come to check on Emily's situation for Stan and George's sake, which had caused him to meddle and get involved in this incident.

To some extent, Emily was indeed innocent. If he killed Emily now, he didn't know how he would face Stan and George in the future.

He just wanted a way to permanently tie the two of them together on the same boat, a once-and-for-all solution.

He dragged the corpse onto the plastic sheet, propped it up, and forced it into a kneeling position with hands behind its back.

Then he untied the belt binding Emily's hands and feet.

He picked up Emily's Ruger LCP pistol, which was already out of bullets, and Lin Yu'an loaded one.

Then he handed this gun to Emily.

"Do you want to live?" His voice carried no emotion.

Emily trembled and nodded.

"Then take it."

Lin Yu'an pressed the Ruger pistol into her hand, then took out his phone, turned on video recording, while pointing the Glock at Emily with his other hand.

"Aim at the back of his head and fire."

Emily looked at the cold gun in her hand, then at the corpse close at hand, falling into great fear and internal conflict.

She felt this man was a demon! A demon leading her step by step into the abyss!

"You have no choice, and I'm starting to lose patience," Lin Yu'an's voice was full of threat.

Then he released the safety on his pistol, further threatening Emily.

Finally, survival instinct overcame everything. Emily raised the gun and aimed at the back of the motorcycle man's head.

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out, particularly piercing in the silent cabin. Because of the plastic sheet wrapping, blood didn't splatter on the floor.

Lin Yu'an put away his phone, satisfied with what he saw.

Now Emily also had blood on her hands. She had become an accomplice.

With this video as leverage, this woman could never cause any trouble again.

She collapsed powerlessly to the floor, the gun sliding from her hand onto the carpet. Her entire being seemed drained of all strength and soul.

Lin Yu'an remained unusually calm. He knew this wasn't the time for sentiment. Cleaning up the scene was the first priority.

He walked to the fireplace, found a heavy iron hammer from the tool rack, then came to the location Emily had mentioned.

He tapped the stone floor tiles with his foot and indeed heard a different hollow echo from below compared to other areas.

Without hesitation, he raised the iron hammer and slammed it down hard on that stone tile!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After several hammer blows, the hard stone tile shattered into pieces.

He cleared away the rubble, revealing a layer of cement underneath. He used the hammer to break through the cement layer, and a metal box wrapped in oilcloth and very well sealed lay quietly there.

Lin Yu'an took out the box and weighed it. It wasn't light.

He didn't immediately open it but threw it aside first, then began dealing with the motorcycle man.
