Mu Junze shouted and pulled Mother Meng to run to the side.
After running a few steps, the car spinning at high speed just passed by him and Mother Meng and rushed to the other side.
"I didn't succeed?!" the man said in surprise, looking at Mother Meng.
"I must have miscalculated just now. Try again."
This time he aimed at a bus and shot an arrow.
"Bang!"
There was another loud noise, followed by a series of harsh braking sounds. The bus began to speed towards Mu Junze and Mother Meng.
Mu Junze quickly pulled Mother Meng and hid behind the car that had stopped after rushing towards them just now. He pulled the driver who had just got out of the car and squatted down with him.
After sliding for a distance, the bus toppled to one side and crashed down on them.
After the bus fell, there were screams and billows of dust.
Mu Junze and Mother Meng used the car as a fulcrum to pry up the bus and barely managed to dodge another disaster.
The two of them and the driver struggled to climb out. By now, the area near the square was in a complete mess. Car glass shards and other parts were scattered everywhere, and the ground was full of tire marks from braking.
Wailing sounds came one after another. Many drivers and passers - by on the roadside had gathered to watch. Some people had already started to rescue the passengers inside the bus.
"How is this possible?!"
The man couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Mu Junze and Mother Meng crawling out from under the bus.
This was his first failure since his official debut. The last time was when he had just entered the industry.
At that time, he was still a child, weak - handed and kind - hearted. He hesitated to take action or his actions were not steady, accurate and ruthless enough, which led to the failure of the mission and the death of his companions.
After that incident, his personality changed greatly, and he had never failed again.
But today, there had been one problem after another. There were the security guards and the traffic police. Was his end really near?
Actually, Mu Junze managed to dodge the vehicle attacks several times by relying on simple mathematical and physical knowledge.
When Mu Junze was a child, he was a well - known science whiz. So, predicting the sliding direction of the vehicles through mathematical methods was a piece of cake for him.
When the bus fell, since the top of the bus was relatively light, he could use the car body to prop it up, thus creating a safe space to avoid the crushing injury.
The two of them patted the glass shards off their bodies. Apart from a few scratches, they were not seriously injured.
However, Mother Meng was still in a state of shock. Her heart was pounding, and her legs were weak and trembling constantly.
"Don't worry. Relax. Take a deep breath," Mu Junze comforted her.
The man thought for a while. He must seize this opportunity today to kill her.
So he got on his electric bike, turned the throttle to the maximum, and rushed towards them.
At this moment, the killer, Mother Meng and Mu Junze were in a straight line. Mother Meng had her back to the killer, while Mu Junze was facing him.
When he saw the electric bike rushing towards them, he basically understood what was going on.
He stared closely at the electric bike and waited until it was almost near before taking action.
With the throttle fully open, the bike was moving very fast. It didn't take long for it to reach them.
Mu Junze suddenly pushed Mother Meng to the side. Then he dodged to one side and kicked the electric bike. The bike was moving at such a high speed that after this kick, it lost control, spun to the side, and both the man and the bike flew a long way.
Mu Junze took a deep breath, looking at the man who had just flown out. Then he turned to help Mother Meng up, only to find that she was sweating profusely and looking in pain.
"Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Mu Junze asked with concern.
"My... my leg hurts," Mother Meng gasped out the words.
Mu Junze then realized that just now, Mother Meng's legs must have been shaking so much that she didn't move out of the way in time and was run over by the wheel.
"Can you still get up?"
"No, I can't."
Seeing this, Mu Junze felt extremely regretful. He should have pushed harder to avoid this.
"I'm sorry! I'll call an ambulance right away," Mu Junze said as he took out his phone and dialed 120.
"Watch out behind you!" Mother Meng suddenly patted him and shouted.
Mu Junze felt a chill on his back. He quickly turned around and saw the man stabbing at him with a claw blade.
Maybe it was because he had worn a helmet just now that he wasn't seriously injured. He had just regained his senses, struggled to get up, pulled out the claw blade, and rushed towards Mu Junze.
Unexpectedly, Mother Meng saw this and reminded Mu Junze. Mu Junze turned around and grabbed the man's wrist.
The man was a bit surprised when his hand was grabbed. Then he threw an uppercut straight at Mu Junze's abdomen.
Mu Junze had exercised regularly. He dodged to one side slightly and then kicked the man in the knee.
The man immediately lost his balance and staggered, failing to reach Mu Junze.
But in a split - second when he lowered his head, the hand that was being grabbed suddenly broke free. When the claw blade dropped, he caught it with his other hand and swiped it at Mu Junze.
The whole movement was as smooth as flowing clouds and running water, which caught Mu Junze off - guard. He quickly let go and stepped back. The blade just tore his clothes, and he wasn't injured.
After swiping the blade horizontally, he flipped his wrist, pushed off the ground with his foot, and took a step forward to stab again.
He knew in his heart that if he didn't get rid of Mu Junze, it would be almost impossible to kill Mother Meng directly.
If he couldn't kill her, the mission would fail, and he would lose both his reputation and money.
Mu Junze really didn't react in time to dodge this sudden and fierce attack.
Obviously, this was a stress reaction from countless battles and couldn't be easily dodged by an ordinary person.
The blade stabbed right into Mu Junze's right lower abdomen.
Mu Junze instantly felt dizzy and weak all over. It seemed as if all his strength was flowing out through the wound.
But relying on his remaining willpower, he still tightly grabbed the man's hand holding the knife.
He couldn't let him go! This was Mu Junze's only thought.
"You won't get past me! And don't even think about hurting this woman."
The man was also a bit surprised, but he didn't hesitate at all. He raised his other hand and chopped down towards Mu Junze's neck, using the same technique as he had used to subdue the security guard.
Just when he was about to succeed, there was suddenly a gunshot.
And that chop didn't come down.
