Chapter 3: The Midnight Shot

  Rolled down from the second floor, with a soft grassy skin as a buffer, Ye Qi stood up without any damage. Patted off the adhering grass dust, touched the unexpectedly delightful statue in his arms, and Ye Qi was in a great mood to leave St. Thomas Hospital immediately, wanting to go back and study the mystery of these two magic statues.

  "Whoosh!"

  But before Ye Qi left, Mori, who had just bid him goodnight, appeared on the lawn amidst the sound of shattering glass. The black market merchant was in a bit of trouble at this time, despite the grass cushioning the impact, but the shards of glass that fell around him caused him no small amount of distress. Thin trails of blood appeared on the black market merchant's body.

  "Damn it! God must despise you bunch of untrustworthy guys! Dear Ye, considering our pleasant cooperation in the past, you must help me!" Mori cursed under his breath, then saw Ye Qi standing in front of him, who was just about to leave, and immediately crawled up to beg for help.

  Ye Qi, who had a guilty conscience, couldn't help but feel a twinge of unease when faced with the black market merchant descending from above, but after hearing Mori's words, Ye Qi knew it wasn't his concern and immediately put down the burden in his heart.

  Looking at Mori, who was covered in blood, before Ye Qi could speak, two dark gun barrels appeared in the window of Mori's original sickroom on the second floor. The next moment, bullets poured down towards Ye Qi and Mori.

  "Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

  The pistol with a silencer didn't draw enough attention on the quiet night, and Ye Qi, who was quick on his feet, along with the black market merchant, managed to dodge behind a flowerbed before the other side opened fire. Luckily, they were able to withstand the first wave of gunfire using the flowerbed as cover.

  "You son of a bitch, Mori! Have you seduced the wife of some district big shot or something? How else would there be gunmen showing up at midnight!" Having suffered a sudden attack, Ye Qi's temper wasn't going to get any better. Trying his best to curl up under the flowerbed, Ye Qi growled in a low voice at the black market merchant. Mori, facing Ye Qi's angry roar, looked very innocent, his eyes wide with oaths and vows: "I swear to God, I absolutely haven't done anything like that! They're just not credible, trying to swindle us! My several bodyguards are already finished! Oh damn it! Those things hadn't even had time to be transferred yet, my beautiful treasure!"

  As Mori mentioned his treasures to Yuki, he immediately thought of the things he had acquired that hadn't been transferred yet and wanted to rush out, but was pressed down by Yuki's quick hands.

  "Hiss! Hiss!"

  Mori's impulsive action immediately attracted attention from above, and another burst of gunfire erupted. Ye Qi slapped Mori in the face with a loud crack, roaring: "Are you crazy? Don't you want to live? Can't you tell what's more important, money or your life?"

  "Of course I can tell them apart, but I don't have any money, what's the point of taking a risk!"

  Mori, who was awakened by Ye Qi's slap, cried with a gloomy face, as if he had lost his parents. Ye Qi was so angry that he didn't bother to pay attention to Mori, who had fallen into Qian's eyes, and shifted his focus entirely upwards.

  "Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

  The faint sound of gunfire rang out again, a dense barrage of shots, bullets pouring down wildly, hitting the ceramic tiles on the flowerbed and sending them flying everywhere. Countless flowers and grasses danced in the moonlight amidst the hail of bullets. But Ye Qi, hiding behind the flowerbed, let out a cold laugh. Although there was a clear rule among demon hunters that they were not allowed to harm ordinary people, that only applied when their own safety was not threatened! In a situation like this, where they were ambushed by gangsters and innocent bystanders were caught in the crossfire, it was clearly a different story.

  Ye Qi's hand reached into his pocket, and the M500 revolver appeared in the night air in an instant. The silver gun body flashed like lightning across the dark sky for a moment.

  The M1911 semi-automatic pistol is favored for its simple structure, few parts, and ease of disassembly and reassembly; reliable action, good safety, and low failure rate. It has been widely used by the military, law enforcement agencies, security personnel, and civilian enthusiasts. Despite its large size and heavy weight, strong recoil during firing affects shooting accuracy, and it can only use a 7-round magazine. Even the M1911A1 model, which was modified later, can only hold 7+1 rounds. However, this does not diminish people's affection for it. Ye Qi also likes this series of pistols, second only to his M500, and if he were not short of funds, he would even want to collect a complete set of the series.

  Out of fondness, Ye Qi had previously only taken a glance at the opponent's hand and recognized the gun. Therefore, from the moment the opponent fired until now, Ye Qi, who was familiar with the pros and cons of the M1911 automatic pistol, began to silently calculate the number of shots the opponent had fired.

  "Fourteen voices, just right!"

  As the opponent's gunfire had just stopped, Ye Qi seized the opportunity to dash out of the flowerbed and fired two shots. The M500 revolver was 0.50 inches in caliber and used Magnum high-power pistol bullets, making it extremely powerful, equivalent to twice that of the Desert Eagle, and under this great power, the sound was naturally not small! Compared to the M1911 automatic pistol equipped with a silencer, the two shots from the M500 were like two thunderbolts.

  Bang! Bang!

  The quiet night was shattered by the two deafening gunshots, and the "Woo-woo!" alarm sounded from the main building of the hospital, echoing through the night sky.

  "Run fast!" Ye Qi pulled Mo Li and ran towards the back of the hospital. Since the alarm had sounded, the hospital's security guards would appear within two minutes, and the police would arrive at the scene within ten minutes. At this time, if they didn't leave, they wouldn't be able to leave even if they wanted to later.

  "My treasure!" Mori let out a heart-wrenching cry, truly heartbreaking to hear. However, the black market merchant also understood the consequences of rushing back now, and could only run while looking back with regret, muttering under his breath: "Those two damned bastards, I'll definitely..."

  "Those two bastards are dead! And we need to speed up!" Ye Qi was clearly dissatisfied with Mori's distracted appearance while escaping, and after correcting his mistake, he pulled the black market merchant's arm again to increase their escape speed. By the time the hospital security and police arrived, Ye Qi and the black market merchant had already run out of the hospital's blockade area.

  In system evaluation, M1911 is: simple structure, few parts, easy assembly, good safety and low failure rate of ordinary pistol.

  And for M500: extremely powerful, requiring an extremely strong arm to wield a standard class enhanced handgun.

  Although the attribute of Ye Qi is too low to identify the specific power of the two guns, it can be seen from the evaluation that one is better than the other. Moreover, M500 itself is used for hunting large animals such as elephants and rhinos, compared to which M1911 is a bit inferior. Therefore, the two gunmen on the second floor, despite making effective defensive dodging movements when Ye Qi fired, were still shot through the wall by M500.
