boom!

With the sound of gunfire, hot bullets shot out and penetrated directly into the man's shoulder!

Hearing the sound of "Ah!", the man in pain immediately let go of his hands and fell to the left.

Laura, who was rescued, subconsciously let out a "whoosh", took a breath, and immediately greedily absorbed oxygen into her burning lungs.

"Cough cough cough..."

Just as Laura, who was dizzy, covered her red neck and struggled to get up, a familiar voice came to her ears:

"Laura, are you okay?!"

Following the sound, Laura discovered that the person who rescued her was none other than Lu Qi who had returned!

Lu Qi, with a concerned expression, was seen standing at the door of the study, holding a Glock 18 in his hand.

And the pitch-black muzzle was aimed squarely at the strange man who was covering his shoulders with a look of pain on his face.

"I'm fine. Fortunately, you came back in time..."

Seeing Laura slowly stand up, Lu Qi looked away and looked at the strange man, saying coldly:

"Don't play tricks. No matter how fast you are, you can't be faster than a bullet! If you don't want to be shot in the head by me, just tell the truth!"

"Who are you? Who sent you here?!"

Facing Lu Qi's questioning, the uninvited guest just stared at Lu Qi with sinister eyes and remained silent.

Seeing this, Lu Qi seemed to have seen something funny. He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and sneered:

"Yo, he's still a tough guy..."

As he spoke, Lu Qi stepped forward and walked slowly towards the man.

Just when the man was planning this in his mind, planning to wait for Lu Qi to get closer before taking a risk, Lu Qi seemed to have already seen through his mind and took the lead!

There was a "bang" and the crisp sound of gunfire sounded again!

Accompanied by a shrill scream, a bullet drilled a bloody hole into the man's right thigh. The blood gurgled down and soon turned into a pool of bright red on the floor.

The man who was originally planning to hold on, immediately cursed in pain:

"fxxk! fxxk! I fuck you..."

Before he could finish cursing, the slightly hot muzzle of the gun suddenly hit his forehead, and the scolding stopped abruptly.

When the man met Lu Qi's cold eyes, his heart suddenly trembled.

"I hit your femoral artery. According to the bleeding rate, if you don't stop the bleeding, you will go into shock and die within a few minutes."

"In other words, you still have the last few minutes of your life..."

"Life or death depends on your next answer. So, if I were you, I would answer every question I ask very honestly."

Seeing the frightened expression on the man's face, Lu Qi knew that he had won the final victory in this little psychological game.

"Now, tell me, who sent you?"

Shrouded in the haze of death, the man had no intention of swearing allegiance to the organization behind him and immediately answered:

"Holy Trinity, Holy Trinity sent me!"

After receiving this expected answer, Lu Qi's heart was not at all disturbed.

However, he continued to play his role, reached out and patted the man's face, showing a satisfied smile:

"Very good, this is a good boy..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Laura, who was standing aside, couldn’t wait to ask her doubts:

"What is the purpose of Holy Trinity sending you here?"

"My superiors sent me to monitor you and seize relevant clues about the prophet's cultural relics from you..."

Obviously, this guy has been hiding around Crawford Manor, monitoring Laura's every move.

The reason for this sudden incident must be that he wanted to take advantage of Lu Qi's departure to attack Laura and steal clues about the prophet's cultural relics.

After sorting out his thoughts, Lu Qi then asked:

"Who is your boss? What is his name? Where is the headquarters?"

"We only know that his name is Constantine. I don't know anything else. Please, please let me go, I'm just a little guy..."

Seeing the man's face gradually turning pale, Lu Qi also knew that if he didn't apply a hemostatic bandage, this guy would really die.

As a result, Lu Qi reached out and grabbed the man's pants, pulled hard, and pulled out a strip of cloth. Then he helped the man bandage the wound on his thigh and said:

"Yes. Before that, I want you to do something for me."

"You said, I'm willing to do anything!"

"Bring a message to your master for me, saying that we plan to go to Siberia to find the source of the sacred. If he dares to come, then come!"

...

Lu Qi is a person who keeps his promises.

After the interrogation, he directly let go of the minion sent by Holy Trinity.

Standing in front of the mansion, watching the man call his accomplice and being dragged into the car by a black SUV that drove into the manor, Laura then turned to look at Lu Qi beside her and asked:

"Why did you tell Trinity our destination?"

"Even if we don't tell him, Holy Trinity can know where we are going through our movements."

"In this case, why don't we tell him directly where we are going and temporarily divert their attention. We can also take advantage of this opportunity to prepare to set off..."

"Aren't you afraid that they will get there first and find Kit City before us?"

"Don't worry. If they were really so smart, they would have found the clues long ago. Do they still need to rely on your guidance?"

Hearing this, Laura opened her mouth and found that what Lu Qi said made sense, and she didn't know how to refute it.

Glancing at Laura who was deep in thought, Lu Qi couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth, revealing a mysterious smile...

In fact, there was another reason why Lu Qi did not tell Laura the truth.

Taking the initiative to provoke Holy Trinity is to better deal with those religious fanatics.

From Lu Qi's understanding, Holy Trinity is a huge organization with a long history, vast resources, and members from all walks of life.

The concept is very similar to that of the Templars in the world of "Assassin's Creed", both of whom want to find items with mysterious power to achieve some evil purpose.

To deal with this huge organization hiding in the dark, Lu Qi adopted the same method as the assassin organization, that is:

To capture the thief, capture the king first!

Instead of spending a lot of effort to find all the top leaders of Holy Trinity and assassinate them one by one, it is better to throw out a very tempting bait and let them come to you.

Besides, the space that can be used in inaccessible Siberia is definitely different from that in an international metropolis like London.

Lu Qi, who has recovered all his skills, has strong strength and self-confidence, and is not afraid of these young people hiding in the dark.
