61: Chapter 61 This assassin seems rather unprofessional.
Yang Fan stayed at home for a few days before returning to Magic City.
His grandmother's affection for the next generation was typical; with his sister's daughter there, she didn't spare him a glance all day, playing only with the little girl.
The family didn't really need him around anymore; he had gone from being their "sweetheart" to "Madam Niu."
They all took a plane back, as long-distance car rides were truly an ordeal.
Inside the first-class cabin of the plane.
"Sir, here is your coffee!"
"Mm, thank you."
Yang Fan took the coffee; the quality of this airline's flight attendants was truly impressive.
Dressed in a blue-and-white porcelain-style Chinese cheongsam—designed by some master, no doubt—it showcased her figure perfectly, highlighting every curve.
Just as the flight attendant was about to leave, a gunshot rang out in the first-class cabin.
Terrified, the flight attendant collapsed right onto him.
Yang Fan frowned; the place she landed...
Hearing the gunshot, Yang Fan immediately sent Li Anlan into the trading space he shared with Emperor Taizong of Tang.
At this moment, some people still didn't understand the situation and looked up to see what was happening. They had lived in peace for too long to be raising their heads in such a situation.
Then, another gunshot rang out.
"I'm only here to kill one person. If anyone's in a hurry to be reincarnated, keep looking up."
As he spoke, he checked the information in his hand and walked straight toward Yang Fan. His tone was stiff, clearly not a Huaxia native.
Yang Fan's Danger Sense could feel the other's position. He frowned; he hadn't offended anyone recently.
Besides, how did he get a gun onto the plane?
The opponent seemed to know his location and was coming straight for him.
Suddenly, Yang Fan remembered. He had indeed offended someone: Jiahe Auction House.
Good grief. Instead of trying to shoot him outside, they specifically arranged one on a plane? Isn't this much harder than doing it on land?
Yang Fan gently pushed the flight attendant off him. With his current strength, he truly didn't fear handguns. Plus, he could enter his space at any time, so he wasn't panicked at all.
If there weren't other people on the plane, he would have taken out the Gatling Gun and mowed the guy down long ago.
Waiting for the other to approach, just as the barrel was about to point at him, Yang Fan exerted force instantly. His Speed Ability activated, and before the other could react, the gun was already in Yang Fan's hand.
With Yang Fan's current physical fitness, even special forces soldiers were just small fry to him.
After all, his physical stats were several times that of an average person, plus he had his Speed Ability.
"How did you get your gun onto the plane?"
Yang Fan asked directly; this was what he couldn't figure out.
"Jie jie jie jie..."
"Once you see God, He'll tell you. Besides, even with the gun, you're no match for me."
With that, he pulled a combat knife out of thin air and rushed at Yang Fan.
Yang Fan looked at the gun in his hand. Didn't this guy know that within ten paces, the gun is faster?
Is there something wrong with this guy's head?
Yang Fan raised the gun and fired, hitting the man directly in the head. In Yang Fan's eyes, the man's movements were like slow motion—it was child's play.
The assassin fell straight back, confusion still in his eyes. Why did the other person seem so casual?
Yang Fan was also shocked. How did this guy get a gun onto the plane?
And he knew his exact position. Was airport security just for show?
Yang Fan then pulled Li Anlan out of the space.
"Brother, what happened just now? Was there danger?"
"It's nothing. I've already taken care of it."
Yang Fan stroked her face. This girl was incredibly nervous about her first flight, so Yang Fan had told her to just go to sleep.
By now, the flight attendant had recovered. Looking at the corpse before her, she swallowed hard.
"Sir, is he dead?"
"Yes. Where is your air marshal? Several shots were fired, and no one's shown up!"
Yang Fan was speechless. With this efficiency, they'd probably only arrive after the person had been killed.
"They're in economy class, all in plain clothes. No one expected a hijacker to be in first class!"
The flight attendant was also helpless.
Just then, speak of the devil, they finally arrived.
Seeing the hijacker was dead, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. After all, they didn't have weapons on them either.
They had only come to negotiate terms with the hijacker; they hadn't expected the matter to be resolved already.
The flight attendant beside Yang Fan went up to explain the whole process to them.
The two approached Yang Fan and reached out their hands,
"Thank you very much. Are you from some special forces unit?"
"No. This is an assassin from a foreign special department. Just report the situation and find out how this person entered Huaxia."
As he spoke, Yang Fan tossed the handgun over.
The two hurriedly caught it. Couldn't this guy hand over a gun properly? What if it went off?
"Alright, we understand!"
The two took photos of the body and moved it away. Shortly after, someone cleaned the floor.
Sounds began to return to the first-class cabin, with voices occasionally drifting over, all discussing Yang Fan.
"Sir, my name is Bai Bing. Could I have your contact information? I'd like to treat you to dinner tonight!"
The flight attendant who was by Yang Fan's side earlier came over again, taking the initiative to ask for his contact info.
Yang Fan glanced at Li Anlan. Girls nowadays were truly bold.
"Yang Fan."
The two exchanged phone numbers.
"Brother, that girl has her eye on you!"
"You're the hero saving the beauty!"
Li Anlan teased, leaning on Yang Fan.
"She was just caught in the crossfire. The target was actually me. I moved someone's cheese, so they hired an expensive assassin to come after me."
Yang Fan knew it as soon as he thought about it. After all, an assassin like this wouldn't come cheap.
Qin Fan was unlikely; they weren't at each other's throats yet, and they didn't have major conflicting interests.
Jiahe Auction House was the most likely, since he had directly struck at them.
He was currently crashing the price of Zhenguan Gold and preparing his own auction house.
They didn't dare touch Ye Qingcheng, so they could only come for him—the one without a background.
They probably knew he usually had Bodyguards, making him hard to reach, so they made their move on the plane.
Moreover, the fact that they knew his exact seat and flight information meant they weren't ordinary people.
It seemed capital was truly terrifying. He had only just glimpsed a corner of it, and already someone was paying a high price for his life.
"Then how about we hide with my Father? They'd never find us in a lifetime!"
Li Anlan also knew that modern weapons were powerful and could kill from a great distance, so she was still a bit worried.
"No need. Since it's a business war, I'll start by taking down their public business. If they reach out with hidden hands again, I'll just cut them off."
Yang Fan's gaze had changed.
He also knew that he who wears the crown must bear its weight.
He was an economics student, after all; how could he not know the filth behind many commercial empires?
But since he had chosen this path, he couldn't exactly give away what he had for free, could he?
The plane landed soon after. Bai Bing threw Yang Fan a wink and made a "call me" gesture!
Yang Fan responded with an "OK."
