บท 259: Chapter 259 Sniper Kill!
The time rewinds to when the yacht was just leaving the shore.
Soon, the G-Class vehicle arrived at the coastline. Xiao Qing got out of the car, took out the sniper rifle, and began observing the yacht. Although the distance wasn't too far, Ye Yongsheng was inside the cabin, with no clear line of sight for a shot. Moreover, her young master and madam had their hands and feet tied. Even if she managed to take out Ye Yongsheng with one shot, the bodyguards could still fire indiscriminately and kill her master and madam.
Old Third was anxiously pacing around, staring at the phone with the message from Old Fifth, seemingly trying to figure out which direction to go.
Xiao Qing, growing impatient, snapped, "What are you pacing for?! Hurry up and contact Old Fifth and ask what to do next!"
Old Third, frustrated, handed her the phone. "Look, it's our code. The first letter 'E' means direction—east. The second letter 'S' is for signal transmission—uppercase, meaning we need to exchange signals. And 'a' means you're supposed to snipe Ye Yongsheng! The code has to be followed in sequence, no mistakes… But where's the east? I'm too nervous, I can't find it!"
Xiao Qing was baffled, "What are you rambling about?!"
Frustrated, she directly called Old Fifth. At that moment, Old Fifth had just launched the drone. Answering the call, he said, "Chu Haoran said Ye Yongsheng is heading south. Look to the east; there should be a good vantage point!"
Xiao Qing turned and looked. "I see it! There's a high point with a clear view!"
Old Fifth continued, "Tell Old Third to light a fire to signal our brother. Once he responds, take the shot and kill Ye Yongsheng!"
Xiao Qing was on the verge of tears. "But the young master's hands and feet are tied; he can't signal us!"
Old Fifth assured her, "Since he used a capital 'S,' it means he has a way to respond. Keep a close eye on him. Once he makes any big move, take the shot. You must kill Ye Yongsheng with one shot, or it will put our brother in danger!"
Old Fourth chimed in, "Make sure you follow the code sequence, don't rush the shot! Also, is it windy by the sea? How far can your M200 shoot?"
Xiao Qing, now running towards the vantage point, replied, "It's not too windy, but I… I don't know how far I can shoot. I've never used this rifle before…"
Old Fourth, concerned, responded, "Hopefully, our brother can keep it within two kilometers…"
Xiao Qing glanced at the sea, panicking, "It's already about 700-800 meters away now!"
Old Fourth reassured her, "Xiao Qing, stay calm. Our brother's life is in your hands. It will take Old Fifth and me some time to catch up!"
Hanging up the call, Xiao Qing raced to the vantage point like a hunted wolf. From there, she had a clear view of Ye Yongsheng sitting in the cabin. Lying prone, she aimed the rifle towards the yacht. The scope indicated a distance of about 1.3 kilometers.
Ye Yongsheng was sitting with his head resting against the window. If she fired now, she wouldn't miss. But the signal from Chu Yuxuan clearly stated that firing should be the last step. She had to wait for his response.
As the yacht drifted further, the immense pressure caused Xiao Qing to tremble uncontrollably. Her hands shook, her breath quivered, and she struggled to keep her nerves in check. If she missed the shot, her young master would be doomed!
Gritting her teeth, her young face pale with tension, Xiao Qing tried to calm herself. She closed her eyes, repeatedly taking deep breaths, occasionally wiping her sweaty palms on her clothes.
Meanwhile, Old Third drew some fuel from the gas tank, splashed it on a tree, and quickly lit a fire, signaling Chu Yuxuan that they were ready.
On the boat, Chu Yuxuan received the signal. No longer passive, he knelt upright, pretending to be on the verge of fainting from blood loss, lulling Ye Yongsheng and his men into a false sense of security. At the same time, his hands reached behind him, retrieving bullets hidden in his shoes. He removed the bullet tips and sprinkled the gunpowder onto the fishing line tying his hands and feet.
Next, he asked Ye Yongsheng for a cigarette.
Using a cigarette to ignite the gunpowder and break free was the best plan. However, whether he could get a cigarette from Ye Yongsheng was uncertain.
Chu Yuxuan had a backup plan: if denied the cigarette, he would headbutt Ye Yongsheng to signal Xiao Qing. But this method was risky, as his hands were still tied. Even if he managed to kill Ye Yongsheng, it was uncertain whether the remaining bodyguards would heed his commands.
Fortunately, Ye Yongsheng, after some mocking, humiliatingly handed him the cigarette.
At that moment, the yacht had already drifted about 2.4 kilometers from the shore. Despite forcing herself to remain calm, Xiao Qing had lost confidence. Faced with such a long-distance shot, she barely dared to breathe, with sweat pouring down her face. Her eyes were fixed, unblinking, as she aimed squarely at Ye Yongsheng's head.
Seizing the moment while Ye Yongsheng's bodyguards were distracted, Chu Yuxuan freed himself, grabbed a gun, and signaled Xiao Qing!
Xiao Qing held her breath and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
The bullet traveled through the air for nearly three seconds!
Those three seconds felt like three centuries to Xiao Qing, her heart pounding in her throat. The bullet left the barrel, cutting a shallow arc through the air. The powerful recoil sent her small frame back, her bangs fluttering in the shockwave, as if time itself had momentarily frozen.
"Clang..."
The bullet struck a rock, producing a crisp sound. Simultaneously, the bullet pierced directly into Ye Yongsheng's temple!
A headshot with one bullet!
The M200 sniper rifle's long-range capabilities, ranked among the best in the world, were no joke! Of course, this success was thanks to the naturally gifted Xiao Qing. After all, the yacht was still moving, and the sea wasn't as stable as land, with waves rocking the boat. A slight fluctuation could have thrown the shot off!
Worse, she could have accidentally hit Zhao Yanan, who sat right in front of Ye Yongsheng!
Xiao Qing let out a deep breath. Despite her relief, she didn't let her guard down. She quickly aimed at the yacht's bridge, firing three more shots. One missed, but the other two took down the first mate and second mate, leaving the yacht without anyone steering. Though the throttle was still set to forward, without someone controlling the direction, the yacht immediately veered off course.
Next, Xiao Qing began rapid-fire sniping at the bodyguards!
Everything happened so quickly, so unexpectedly!
By the time Chu Yuxuan had killed the bodyguard in front of him, the rest were only just turning around, guns drawn, responding to the gunfire!
But Chu Yuxuan had already rolled into the cabin, shooting two bodyguards stationed by the sides of the yacht, then pulling Zhao Yanan from her chair and shielding her with his body.
Zhao Yanan, having been splattered with Ye Yongsheng's blood, was still in shock, unaware of what had just happened, even as Chu Yuxuan pulled her down to the ground.
The bodyguards tried to storm the cabin, but it was too late. Chu Yuxuan's sharpshooting skills, combined with the sniper fire from afar, made it impossible for them to advance, forcing them to seek cover.
It wasn't entirely their fault for reacting slowly. The fact that Chu Yuxuan had managed to break free was already beyond their comprehension, and Ye Yongsheng being sniped was even more shocking!
For them, bodyguards who had followed Ye Yongsheng, thinking they had seen it all, this was nothing short of a crushing defeat!
After all, hitting a moving target from more than two kilometers away, especially one on a rocking boat, was something even elite special forces wouldn't confidently claim to achieve with one shot!
