Chapter 39: Accidental Discharge
Seeing that Peter had already transformed into Philip’s appearance, Peter’s subordinates very consciously proceeded to the next step.
They brought out cleaning-specific one-piece work suits, plastic sheets, an axe, and bleach. They first put on the work suits, covered the surrounding furniture with plastic sheets, and then laid several more layers of plastic sheets on the floor. Then, two subordinates carried the long-dead Philip to the thickened layers of plastic sheets, spread out his limbs, and laid him down.
“Qiuyue, you should handle this delicate work,” one of the subordinates said, handing the axe to Qiuyue.
“No problem,” Qiuyue took the axe.
Qiuyue took two steps forward, squatted down next to Philip, and poked him with his finger to confirm the connection between his arm and shoulder.
Then, Qiuyue raised the axe.
The axe fell.
The pieces of bone and flesh were already tightly wrapped in plastic bags, yet a faint smell of grease and metal still lingered in the air. This was where the bleach came in handy.
After everything was done, only the pungent smell of bleach remained in the air. However, this room was connected to the most advanced fresh air filtration system, so this smell was believed to dissipate quickly.
Several people carried the tightly wrapped, ham-like chunks out of the secret room. Just as they finished moving them, the elevator doors suddenly opened.
“Hi.”
Philip’s Omega assistant walked in, pushing a black suitcase that was half a person tall, and greeted them warmly.
“Your suitcase.”
“Thank you,” Peter took the suitcase and pushed it to his subordinate. While the subordinate was packing and dividing the contents, he did not forget to flirt with the Omega assistant:
“Have you decided which restaurant you want to go to for dinner?” Peter put his hand on the Omega’s shoulder.
“Umm… I’m still thinking,” the Omega leaned on Peter’s shoulder, a look of innocent ignorance on his face. “I want to go to XX X restaurant.”
This was a famous old-brand restaurant in the main city, known for its expensive and exquisite French cuisine.
“Of course, my dear,” Peter, with Philip’s face, kissed the Omega’s cheek.
Qiuyue, on the side, watched with a twitching mouth. After all, Philip’s appearance was hard to evaluate. Standing next to this young and beautiful Omega, the visual impact was really… even if Qiuyue knew that “Philip” was Peter underneath, it still felt a little…
Sensing that someone was looking at him, the Omega subconsciously turned his head and saw Qiuyue looking at him. Although they had just met today, the Omega did not like Qiuyue. The Omega’s intuition told him that the relationship between Qiuyue and Peter was unusual, which made the Omega dislike Qiuyue even more. He could not tolerate any stumbling blocks on his path to fame and fortune.
The Omega’s eyes darted around and said, “Does Qiuyue want to go to XXX restaurant too?” The Omega had already decided that if Peter also wanted to bring Qiuyue, then the Omega would definitely find an opportunity to embarrass him.
“No, thank you,” Qiuyue politely refused. He didn’t want to get into trouble. “I won’t disturb you and the boss’s private time.”
“What a shame,” Peter said with regret. “Qiuyue has been rejecting me a lot lately, which makes me a little sad.”
Hearing this, the Omega blushed and whispered in Peter’s ear. Qiuyue didn’t know what they were saying, but seeing Peter laugh so hard, he guessed it wasn’t anything good.
Qiuyue: …I don’t understand, it’s a little disgusting, but I’m trying to be respectful.
Just then, a subordinate came over with a communicator. He said with a somewhat embarrassed expression:
“Boss, something big has happened. You should listen to this.”
“Huh?”
Peter raised an eyebrow and took the communicator.
Soon, his smile froze on his face. The corners of his smiling mouth pulled down, and the light in his pupils became cold. If it were any other time, Peter would probably have exploded and slapped these useless subordinates a few times. But he touched his own cheek, touched the fake face mask that didn’t belong to him, and he held back.
“I can’t get away,” Peter swallowed and said through gritted teeth. “You solve your mistake. If you can’t solve it, I’ll solve you, understand?”
“…Yes,” the subordinate on the other end of the communicator said with a trembling voice.
Peter hung up the communicator. Perhaps he was too angry, his hand was even trembling, and he couldn’t hold the communicator steady, and it fell to the ground.
“Oh dear, the communicator fell,” the Omega in his arms said in surprise. He bent down to pick up the communicator for Peter.
But just as his fingertips touched the communicator on the ground, a shadow flashed before his eyes. Then, his fingers, along with the communicator, were stepped on.
“Ah, it hurts!” the Omega screamed, tears streaming from his eyes. But Peter, as if he didn’t see his pain, stepped on his hand, the hard heel of his alligator leather shoes even grinding it a few times. The communicator was so hard, and under the double pressure of the shoe heel, the Omega’s delicate hand was successfully deformed.
Peter lifted his foot. The Omega quickly pulled his hand back and cried, clutching his broken and deformed hand. He couldn’t understand why the Alpha who had been so sweet to him a second ago would do such a thing the next.
The Omega raised his teary eyes, and just as he was about to loudly accuse Peter of his evil deeds, he suddenly stopped. He saw Peter staring at him. For a moment, the Omega felt that Peter wanted to get rid of him. Yes, just like he had gotten rid of his former boss, Philip.
The Omega swallowed. The immense fear made him afraid to make another sound. He stood up, and with his hand that had been stepped on and broken, he retreated to the side.
“Let’s go,” Peter said faintly. “Let’s go and visit this technology company’s research and development center.”
“Do you smell something?”
“It seems to be the smell of Omega pheromones? Wait, why is it mixed with the smell of Alpha pheromones?”
“Are you a stupid pig? This is the smell of heat.”
“How would I know? I’ve never spent a heat with an Omega.”
“Tch.”
“Let’s go and see.”
“Hmph, I think you want to… ah, someone is ambushing us.”
The moment he finished speaking, a hand chopped the speaker’s neck. The speaker’s vision went black, and he fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the other person pulled out the gun from his waist. “Hey, you…!”
Before he could finish, another powerful hand choked his neck. Before he could struggle, the arm that was holding his neck twisted forcefully, and then, a crisp sound came from his joint.
Romeo released his arm, and the person who had been tightly held by his arm slid to the ground like a big catfish.
These two were both Peter’s subordinates.
Wen En picked up the guns that had fallen from their hands, gave one to Romeo, and after some consideration, decided to give the other one to Xiaoli. After all, Xiaoli’s self-preservation ability here was zero. If he had a gun, he might be able to fight for a chance of survival in a life-or-death situation.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Wen En. You should keep this gun. You don’t need to give it to me. Besides, I don’t know how to use a gun. It would be troublesome if I accidentally fired it.”
Xiaoli quickly shook his head and refused. One, he had never directly touched such a dangerous thing. Two, he felt the Alpha’s ghost-like gaze on him. The cold feeling made him shiver.
He couldn’t help but sneeze, and as a result…
“Bang—”
“Ah—”
A gunshot rang out, followed by a tragic cry. One of Peter’s subordinates, who had been lying unconscious on the ground, suddenly sat up straight. He looked down and saw that his crotch had been shot to a bloody pulp by the accidental discharge. His vision went black, and he fainted again.
“I’d better take the gun.”
Wen En quickly took the gun from Xiaoli’s hand. For someone who didn’t know how to use a gun, the probability of hurting themselves was probably greater than hurting the enemy.
