It seemed as though the man in front of him sensed he was being watched. He turned around, revealing himself to be Bild, who gave Old Brown a look and then glanced at the small room next to them. Finding amusement in the situation, Bild revealed a disgusting smile.
"Old man, want to buy one? They're all virgins, and the price is quite cheap..."
Old Brown stared at him. "Kid, do you think this joke is funny?"
Bild's eyebrows twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but in that instant, he sensed danger in that gaze. He quickly pulled out a Colt M1911 handgun and aimed it at Old Brown, his face turning cold and fierce.
"Old man, I don't like the look in your eyes!"
As Bild suddenly became aggressive, Old Brown did not raise his hands this time but instead glanced behind Bild.
Due to the sudden conflict, the people walking ahead had stopped and turned around. Old Brown calmly said to Bild while looking at Felton with a frown.
"Kid, I know you're in a hurry, but I also know your boss wouldn't like you doing this."
Sure enough, Felton, who was at the front, spoke up.
"Bild! Conduct business properly!"
As Bild looked at the old man in front of him and listened to the order from behind, his expression twisted further.
He tilted his head and made a slashing gesture across his neck with the handgun at Old Brown, then brushed past him and left the area.
The gesture was a clear warning from Bild.
Old Brown was unfazed and just looked at Felton. "I've bought your stuff, and now one of your men wants to kill me?"
Felton's face soured as he gestured to one of his men.
"Go, keep an eye on him. If he dares to lay a hand on a customer, kill him."
The assigned underling nodded seriously and walked in the direction Bild had left.
"Are you reassured now?" Felton asked Old Brown calmly.
Old Brown nodded.
"Then let's continue," Felton said, turning around with his remaining two underlings following him.
"Three people left..." Old Brown glanced in the direction Bild had left and continued to follow.
He followed the group to the end of the corridor and entered a room. Compared to the chaotic scene outside, this room had everything, resembling a pristine, dust-free heaven – a stark contrast to the hell outside.
Old Brown deliberately looked towards the wine rack to his right, noting two burly men sitting there, drinking wine.
"Russians again," he thought to himself.
"Two on the right, plus the three in front, makes five..."
By now, Felton had already settled on the central sofa, gesturing for Old Brown to sit.
"Sit!"
Feeling the gaze of the two Russians, Old Brown nodded and slowly walked over to sit on the small sofa in front of Felton.
"Go, get the goods and let him inspect them."
At Felton's command, the underling on his left went to fetch something, and Felton, picking up an unfinished glass of red wine from the table, lay back on the sofa and stared at Old Brown.
"You know, old man, I admire you. Not many dare to come here alone."
Old Brown's attention was partially on the underling heading towards a small room, and he spoke indifferently.
"At my age, what do I have to fear?"
Felton chuckled and took a sip of his wine. "Don't worry, we're legitimate businessmen."
Old Brown remained expressionless, recalling what he had seen outside. If these people were legitimate businessmen, then hell didn't exist.
The room fell silent, everyone's eyes on Old Brown on the small sofa. The underling who went to get the goods came out of the small room with a bunch of items.
He casually placed these on the coffee table in front of the sofa, then stood behind Felton.
A white, square brick, and several handguns.
The items on the table were exactly what Old Brown needed, including a handgun similar to Bild's Colt M1911.
Felton sat up, placing his wine glass on the coffee table and pushing the white brick towards Old Brown.
"This is about all your money can buy."
He said, picking up a handgun from the table and, after receiving a magazine from the underling, loaded it with a few clicks, then calmly said,
"The rest of your money can only buy one handgun."
Felton moved the gun's barrel slowly towards Old Brown and smiled.
"Choose."
Most people wouldn't remain composed under the barrel of a gun, but Old Brown was still calm, as he had said, what did he have left to fear at his age?
Old Brown silently picked up the white brick and tucked it into his coat, then glanced at the handguns on the table and randomly picked one up, its specifications automatically coming to mind.
"Glock 17, a standard service weapon of Austria, one of the top choices for police, 9mm bullets, 185mm in length, weighs 0.62kg, barrel length of 114mm, magazine capacity of 17 or 19 rounds..."
Unfortunately, there was no magazine. Old Brown looked at Felton and said flatly,
"No magazine."
Felton looked seriously at Old Brown for several seconds, perhaps respecting his elder status, he finally handed over the gun with a flick of his wrist.
"Give him a magazine."
At his command, the underling handed a magazine to Old Brown.
Under everyone's gaze, Old Brown examined the magazine and then looked at Felton.
"Only two bullets?"
Felton smirked, tapping his head with the gun.
"Old man, one for your kid, one for yourself. That's enough."
"Alright." Old Brown replied nonchalantly, sliding the magazine into the Glock 17.
"Indeed, it's enough."
As Felton continued, "A perfect transaction, old man. I hope to see you again. Go on, escort the old man out..."
However, Felton's words were cut short as he suddenly noticed that the old man had already aimed the handgun at him.
"You!!!"
Startled, Felton barely had time to react before Old Brown pulled the trigger – a surprise, quick and precise shot.
Bang! Felton's forehead burst open with a blood hole.
The gunshot startled everyone present, who had underestimated Old Brown due to his age. But as Felton slumped onto the sofa, they finally snapped to their senses and reached for their guns.
In that brief moment, Old Brown, following the steps in his mind, turned the barrel towards the nearest underling and pulled the trigger.
Bang! The underling, who had just reached into his coat, also fell to the ground with a bullet hole in his forehead.
Without pausing, Old Brown forcefully threw the now-empty Glock 17 at the face of another underling by the sofa.
"Ugh!"
The underling, stunned by the pain, instinctively covered his face. Taking advantage of this moment, Old Brown lunged at Felton, picking up his fallen handgun and shooting the distracted underling.
Bang! The underling was caught off guard and killed instantly.
Old Brown's actions were smooth and efficient – first, taking Felton and his left underling by surprise, then throwing the empty Glock 17 to gain time to pick up another gun, and finally shooting the right underling.
However, time was of the essence. By the time Old Brown had swiftly eliminated Felton and his three close associates, the two Russians by the wine rack had already drawn their guns and aimed at the now-exposed Old Brown, pulling their triggers.
Bang bang!

Experienced individuals often have a plan for every critical moment and every challenge they might face, even before they act.
Old Brown was exactly this kind of person. Even in his seventies, his military habits served him well.
Before he acted, he already knew what he would face after eliminating the three men in front of him, so the moment he took down the third man, he immediately dove behind the sofa.
The plan was simple, but he overestimated himself.
In that instant, Old Brown felt his movements were terribly slow, and he could only try his best to shift his vital points out of the way.
Thud! The first shot from the Russians by the wine rack drilled straight into his shoulder.
Thud! The second shot quickly followed, piercing his back.
"Ugh!"
Old Brown grunted, intense pain striking his senses, nearly causing him to pass out. However, he clenched his teeth and, lying on the sofa, used his last bit of strength to shift his gun's barrel towards the wine rack and fire.
Bang!!!
Aiming for the large target of the enemy's chest to ensure accuracy, he hit his mark.
Thud!!! One of the Russians looked down at his chest, clutching it and collapsing in agony.
"Volk!!!"
The remaining Russian shouted, distracted, but he didn't stop. He continued firing at Old Brown, who was lying on the sofa.
Time was equal, and in that moment, Old Brown also pulled his trigger.
Bang!!!
Bang!!!
Both gunshots almost sounded simultaneously.
The Russian's bullet struck first, viciously burrowing into Old Brown's exposed back.
Thud!!! Blood sprayed, and Old Brown, now pale-faced and covered in sweat, slowly collapsed onto the sofa, barely holding onto his gun.
Meanwhile,
Old Brown's bullet also found its target.
Thud!!! It accurately entered the Russian's chest, right at the heart, blasting a blood hole.
"Ugh!"
The last Russian looked down at his blood-soaked chest, then at Old Brown lying motionless on the sofa, his eyes filled with a strong unwillingness before he slowly fell to the ground.
The room fell into a deadly silence.
After a few seconds, there was movement on the sofa.
"Cough! Cough!"
Breaking through the deadly quiet, Old Brown, knowing the outcome, suddenly opened his eyes, having recovered from the painful shock.
"Cough! Cough! Three left..." Old Brown took a deep breath, ignoring the still bleeding wounds on his back and shoulder, and with great effort, shifted to lie on the sofa, forcibly holding his gun aimed at the door.
He stared intently at the door, awaiting the arrival of the three men. He knew the room couldn't mask the sound of gunshots.
Sure enough, hurried footsteps approached.
"Cough!" Old Brown coughed and kept his eyes fixed on the door. In that moment, his hand became very steady.
"What's going on with these gunshots? Boss, didn't you say we should conduct business properly?"
Accompanied by the sound of voices, Bild and two others burst through the door.
The time it takes for a person to process visual information is indeed very rapid, typically around 200 to 300 milliseconds, but this reaction time also depends on many factors, including individual response speed, cognitive ability, and level of attention.
When processing more complex information, people need more time to react appropriately.
So, when Bild and his two men entered, they had already given Old Brown the advantage to fire first. Seeing and processing the entire room's situation, they had inadvertently given Old Brown the chance to pull the trigger several times.
Bild and his men wore expressions of disbelief. They never expected their own people to be the ones dead. Seeing Old Brown lying on the sofa, gun aimed, they were shocked.
"Bad news!!!"
...
Old Brown seized this instant. Without any hesitation, he fired as quickly as he could.
Bang bang bang bang!!!
Bild, leading the way and just reaching for his gun, was hit by several bullets, his expression full of unwillingness as he fell.
As Bild collapsed, the remaining bullets hit the two men behind him with unstoppable force.
The two had already drawn their guns, but their actions were no match for the speed of bullets.
Before they could aim and pull the trigger at Old Brown, several bullets had already burst through them.
Bang bang bang!!!
Of course, they weren't dead yet. Before falling, they reflexively pulled their triggers.
Unfortunately, their bodies had already changed shape, and their shots missed, hitting the sofa where Old Brown lay.
With a few thuds, the room once again fell into silence, save for a few dying breaths.
"Cough..."
Old Brown, out of bullets, dropped the gun from his hand to the floor.
"Cough..."
As he coughed, blood came from his mouth. Lying on the sofa, he looked into the void with a smile, as if seeing someone.
"Wait for me, my dear, I still have unfinished business..."
With his last breath, Old Brown shakily took out a bloodstained phone from his coat and placed it on the sofa, pressing the speed dial by feel.
He no longer had the strength to hold the phone to his ear.
At that moment,
In a basement warehouse,
York was sorting enchanted bullets into boxes, one by one.
His shelf was filled with boxes of bullets, a veritable small arsenal. A significant portion of York's expenses went into these bullets.
In one word, those who play with guns spend most on bullets.
"Done."
York closed a box and slid it onto the shelf, marking the end of his day, followed by a bath and bed.
Looking at the neatly stacked and categorized boxes of bullets, York nodded in satisfaction and headed upstairs. But before he could step on the first stair, his phone in his pocket rang.
"Who could it be this late?" York took out his phone as he walked.
Seeing the caller ID, York stopped dead in his tracks.
"Old Brown?" The old man's late call gave York a bad feeling. He quickly answered.
Upon answering, he heard Old Brown's voice.
"Father York, sorry, you're the only one I can contact now..."
Listening to the voice coming from the phone, York's face turned extremely grave. He could hear Old Brown's weakness, as if he was gasping for air.
"Mr. Brown, are you alright?"
"Cough! I'm fine..." Old Brown's voice gradually became faint until it disappeared.
"Father, can you come over? There are people here who need help..."
York only heard an address at the end.
