Chapter 21 Right to Defense
The gunshot came from Han Yu's shotgun.
He held the gun in one hand, while his other hand remained in the position of pushing open the door. Smoke billowed from the barrel, and the smell of gunpowder filled the room.
The gun was taken from the bedroom on the second floor.
It took a lot of effort to dismantle it.
He had already prepared the shotgun after Li Yanmin contacted him.
Han Yu firmly believes that in the apocalypse, it's always good to be cautious.
He concealed the gun behind his back and also tucked a fruit knife into his waistband. Only after doing these things did he open the door.
The extra cunning and gun they had acquired came in handy at this moment.
When Li Yanmin charged forward with his bayonet, Han Yu dodged backward and drew his gun from behind.
In this situation, Han Yu's martial arts master emblem came in handy.
The movements were executed in one smooth motion, as if they had been rehearsed a hundred times.
Even if Li Yanmin were given a hundred more chances, the result would still be the same, and nothing would change.
Three gunshots rang out, and Li Yanmin, who was holding a military dagger, instantly became docile.
All three shots hit the ceiling. The drywall shattered, and debris rained down. Everyone in the room simultaneously shrank back.
It stood still, motionless, like a turtle.
Li Yanmin's bayonet was still raised in mid-air when his arm froze.
His eyes rolled downwards, fixed on the gun barrel on his forehead. His Adam's apple bobbed, but he didn't make a sound.
"Big brother, big brother, calm down, calm down."
His lips trembled, his mouth twisted into two corners, he wanted to laugh but couldn't. The military dagger slipped from his hand and clattered to the ground.
"I... I was just kidding."
He raised his hands, palms facing outwards, fingers spread wide. He took half a step back, his heels hitting the base of the wall.
"Please, be magnanimous and forgive me, just let me go. I'll leave right now, no, I'll get out of here, I'll get out of here right now."
He bent over, placed his hands on his knees, and lowered his head so low it almost touched the ground. Zhao Man behind him also raised her hand.
"I'm just a fart, a fart."
"I'm just a fart too, a fart, please let me go, let me go too."
He repeated it, his voice growing softer and softer. He secretly glanced at Han Yu, then quickly lowered his gaze again.
……
The room was so quiet you could hear the wind blowing downstairs. The muzzle of the shotgun was still pressed against Li Yanmin's forehead, the metal against his skin, feeling cool to the touch.
Li Yanmin's face was all smiles, and he reverted to his submissive demeanor, his previous imposing manner completely gone.
Han Yu didn't care what he said.
The gun barrel remained firmly pressed against Li Yanmin's forehead, refusing to yield an inch.
"Of the four of you, only one can live..."
Han Yu spoke, his voice not loud, but clear enough to be heard in every corner of the room. His eyes shifted from Li Yanmin's face to Zhao Man and the other two behind him.
A cold, icy voice drifted into the ears of the four, sending chills down their spines.
"Yes, yes, only one survives, only one survives..."
Li Yanmin echoed. He nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, his forehead rubbing against the muzzle of the gun.
He was very confident that he would win Han Yu's proposal.
His opponents were three women who were powerless and, moreover, sluts who would pluck pleasure from his crotch every night.
Li Yanmin was quite clear about their strength; they were certainly no match for him.
This is why he repeatedly agreed to Han Yu's requests.
However, Zhao Man and the others behind him expressed their contempt for Li Yanmin.
Damn it, this guy surnamed Li is a complete scoundrel. He treats me like I'm nothing every night, and now that he's taken advantage of me, he actually wants to kill me.
They are worse than animals!
The three exchanged a glance, and their courage grew.
He immediately jumped out and said.
"We refuse to accept this!"
Han Yu was still quite interested in checking out any unexpected situations.
"Oh? What's wrong with you guys?"
"That's not fair!"
"Yes, it's unfair!"
"There is absolutely no justice whatsoever!"
The three women chattered away like birds, which annoyed Han Yu.
He waved his hand at the group, "Stop, stop! This isn't the Olympics, and there are no referees here. You have no right to protest."
"But! You're lucky, I'm in a good mood today and very interested to hear where the unfairness you're talking about lies."
"Now, the timer is 30 seconds. Please begin your speeches."
After saying that, he gestured for them to begin.
"1"
"2"
Zhao Man and the others panicked immediately. 30 seconds was far too short; there wasn't enough time to say anything.
For a moment, the people were so confused that they couldn't even keep their own words together.
Li Yanmin watched the three women with great interest, wondering what kind of trouble these sluts could cause.
"19"
"20"
As the countdown entered its final ten numbers, Han Yu's expression gradually darkened.
Seeing that the situation was dire, Zhao Man stepped forward and became the hero who saved the trio.
As one commentator said, a true hero is not defined by how many trophies or honors he has, but by whether he can step up when the team is in its most critical moment!
Now, Zhao Man is that hero. She stepped forward and saved the three-person team.
Her speech was undeniably concise and powerful.
There were only six words, but even decades later, Han Yu still remembered them.
"We can't beat him!"
We can't beat him!
These six short words encapsulate countless truths about life.
Knowing when to advance and when to retreat, accepting honor and disgrace, being willing to admit defeat, and daring to fight back...
All that is past. How many heroes and great men, unwilling to adapt for a moment, failed at the last minute, leaving us with nothing but regret and sighs...
(The above is all nonsense.)
After Zhao Man finished reciting the six-syllable mantra, everyone present stared at her in shock.
This reason is way too simple. Is it even valid? Is it even useful?
Han Yu, however, fully demonstrated democratic thinking, scientific spirit, and a pragmatic attitude, and widely accepted honest advice.
As for the method, it is naturally full democracy.
He called Jian Chun and the Zhang sisters together, and they sat down and discussed the matter thoroughly.
Finally, after a heated yet friendly, exciting and very interesting discussion...
Han Yu stepped forward alone and stood in front of the three women.
He straightened a non-existent tie and adjusted the hem of his shirt.
In a solemn tone, the judges announced, "Dear contestants, due to a protest raised by a contestant before the start of the competition, the judging panel of the Individual Competition (Jiangwan Villa Area, Block A, Building 1) has taken this issue very seriously. After in-depth and thorough discussion and analysis of the contestant's concerns, the following ruling has been made. Please stand at attention and listen to the decision."
After saying this, Li Yanmin and the others stood up straighter than ever, taking it even more seriously than during their junior high school military training.
It wasn't that they really wanted to do this, but behind Han Yu, a girl named Jian Chun was holding a shotgun and aiming it intently at the group.
Judging from her appearance, Li Yanmin was genuinely worried that she might not be able to hold the gun properly and could accidentally discharge it, thus killing him as well.
The ruling is as follows...
