?Hikaru frowned upon hearing that. He went to the window and pulled the rotten curtain a little ajar. Hikaru looked through the ss and saw a group of people in the yard with baseball bats, smashing his car.


    The group of people seemed to be a group of thugs, but they didn''te here without a purpose. They quickly opened the car door, then took out the three antique bags that Hikaru had put in the back of the car.


    [Master…]


    "Um... these thugs must have been hired by Tadashi. Maybe he doesn''t know about the existence of the Panara Box, but his senses are a hundred times more sensitive than mine."


    "Perhaps he sensed that in the antiques I carried away there was something important to him. Otherwise, when he was at home, he wouldn''t have bid more for the antiques I chose."


    [So, what are you going to do?]


    "I will observe for a while first…" Hikaru said


    Below, the thugs, who numbered 7 people, were holding baseball bats in their hands and pounding on the car as they tried to pry open the door while cursing.


    "Damn it! Why is this car so secure?"


    "Huh! Are you stupid? Take a look, what car is this?  It''s a G63!"


    "Hahahaha… to have the chance to smash a luxury car like this feels great."


    "Damn it! Hurry up, we have other work to do."


    "That''s right, big brother said to break the legs of that bastard Hikaru."


    "Hahaha… I already hate the rich; now I have a chance to beat them up."


    "Hurry up, open the door."


    "BAM! BAM! BAM!"


    The thugs kept hitting the car window with sticks. The windscreen of the car, which already had spider-like cracks from hitting the iron door earlier, now only needed to be hit a few more times to shatter.


    But the thugs didn''t seem satisfied. After taking out the three antiques that Hikaru put in the back of the car, they continued to smash Hikaru''s car until it waspletely unusable, turning it into a pile of scrap before stopping.


    "Alright! Enough! Find that bastard."


    "Damn it! Forget about that."


    "Perhaps he is already running!"


    "Hahaha… run? This ce has only one exit, and it is surrounded by walls that are more than 4 metres high; how can he escape?"


    "That''s right, there are other people guarding outside, and even if he grows wings, that bastard won''t be able to fly out."


    …


    The room where Hikaru was standing was on the 2nd floor; besides, the thugs didn''t seem to worry about other people hearing what they were saying, so they spoke loudly.


    Hikaru, of course, overheard their entire conversation.


    [Master, what will you do?]


    "What will I do?" Hikaru frowned.  He didn''t think that Tadashi wanted to beat him up. It must be known that the conflict between him and Tadashi has not really broken out yet, but Tadashi has already made such a cruel decision.


    "So, that''s how the main character is?" Hikaru thought to himself. In the end, the main character was not as honest as he thought.


    The difference between the main character and the viin was probably the reader''s perspective. When the main character does evil, readers would think that he was decisive, strong, and that what he did was right.


    But if the viin does evil, readers would think that the viin was an animal, a devil, and that he needed to be destroyed.


    As long as it was the MC, even if hemitted murder, it would be seen as normal, and everyone would support it.


    "Rika, there''s a saying; I wonder if you''ve heard it?" Hikaru said calmly.


    [What saying?]


    Hikaru held a gun and pointed it at the other thugs, and with the ability to use a gun like a special forces soldier, he easily knew how to do basic operations such as holding, aiming, and firing.


    Although this was the first time, he held a gun at someone, Hikaru was very calm; even his eyes showed an eerie coldness that would frighten people.


    "When the gun is in the hand, all sentient beings are equal."


    Rika: […]


    As soon as Hikaru finished speaking, he immediately pulled the trigger.


    "BANG!"


    "AAA!  My feet…my feet…"


    The bullet was shot through the ss window, and it went through the knee of a thug, causing him to sit on the ground in pain.


    As soon as the thugs heard the gunshots, they looked in the direction of the sound.


    "Upstairs!"


    "Damn it! Forget it, run!"


    "It''s definitely that bastard Hikaru."


    "Forget everything; run, quickly, he has a gun."


    "Damn it! Why does he have a gun? The Boss didn''t say that bastard had a gun."


    That''s right. Although this was a world from a novel, the government where Hikaru lived had absolute control over the use of guns. Therefore, owning a gun was a terrible thing.


    Even the gangs of thugs or gangsters in this ce only fought each other with knives, baseball bats, or simr weapons.


    ording to normal psychology, just hearing the sound of gunfire was enough to scare these thugs. Now, when they saw someone being shot, of course they were even more scared.


    "Hurry up! Get in the car, quickly!"


    "Don''t leave me behind."


    The thug that was hit in the knee by Hikaru felt extreme pain, but the fear that filled his mind made him try to crawl on the ground.


    Seeing that, the other thugs did not dare to turn back; they immediately climbed into the car they drove here, turned around, and quickly left.


    The thugs came quickly, but they also left quickly. After all, they were just people who relied on their strength to bully the weak; when they met stronger people, they would surely get scared and run away.


    Hikaru followed the thugs'' car with his icy gaze. Although they took three antiques from his G63, he didn''t care about them.


    To Hikaru, the three antiques he left in the car were just useless items. The most valuable thing, the Panara Box, was in his hands.


    [Master, aren''t you going to kill them?]


    Rika''s voice rang out, and Hikaru immediately shook his head and said: "Too troublesome. With my abilities, I can easily kill all those thugs without any of them leaving alive."


    "However, the ammo of this gun is limited. I have nine bullets in the gun and 27 in reserve. I just fired one, so there are only 35 bullets left."


    "When the apocalypsees, let alone the ammunition for this particr gun, even ammunition or explosives could not be produced by anyone. Consuming 1 bullet was losing 1 bullet, as it could not be replenished."


    "Besides, killing them would cause a lot of trouble. Anyway, it''s still a peaceful time, and if someone is killed, especially by a gun, I will definitely be sent to jail by the police immediately."


    "At that time, my n to prepare for the apocalypse will surely fail. However, even though I didn''t kill them, they didn''t leave here scot-free either."


    Hikaru gripped the gun tightly in his hand as he slowly walked down below. He was extremely careful because he was worried that there would be aplices of the thugs around.


    He walked slowly to the stairs and looked down at the first floor. Upon not noticing anything unusual. However, Hikaru remained on high alert, he asked Rika secretly: "Is there anyone else in the house?"


    [There is still one person, but the location is unknown.]


    Hikaru frowned, it seemed his guess was correct. He didn''t think that these thugs had simplye here to smash the car and take the antiques in it.


    Hikaru clearly heard that they were following orders from their big brother, wanting to cripple his legs. Surely while those thugs were smashing his car, someone had sneaked into the house.


    He looked around, still couldn''t see any sign of someone entering the house. Suddenly, Hikaru saw something, and he smiled coldly.


    He immediately pointed his gun at the sofa in the middle of the house and shouted: "Come out, you''re behind the sofas, right?"


    Everything remained silent, Hikaru didn''t have the patience to wait, so he pulled the trigger and shot straight at the chair.


    [BANG!]


    The bullet immediately pierced the sofa, and embedded itself in the floor, dust and stuffing from the sofa flew out.


    "Do not shoot!" A young man''s voice rang out.


    From behind the chair, a thin young man came out, he raised his hands above his head to indicate that he was unarmed.


    [Ooh! Master, how did you know someone was hiding behind the chair!]


    "No matter how lightly he walks, the dust will be blown up."


    [Ah!!]


    Hikaru pointed the gun at the young man, without hesitation pulled the trigger.


    [Bang!]


    "AAAA!!!"


    The bullet easily pierced his stomach and dug into the ceramic tiled floor, leaving a hole in the young man''s stomach and in the ground.


    "Don''t shoot! Don''t shoot! Please…don''t shoot!" The young man sobbed and begged. He was just an ordinary thug after all, faced with the gun, he waspletely defenseless.


    The young man with his bleeding stomach knelt on the ground, although he looked pitiful right now, Hikaru didn''t show any pity at all.


    He said coldly: "Who directed you here?"


    "I… I don''t know!"


    Hikaru didn''t answer, his cold gaze frightened the young man. He trembled and said: "I really don''t know… I… my boss gave me the order, I just followed his order…"


    "Call your boss."


    "Heh?!"


    "Are you deaf? I told you to call your boss, right now!"


    "Yes… yes…" The thug who was trying to hold back his pain took out his phone and started calling. Hikaru still kept a distance of about 5 meters from the thug.


    At this distance, no matter what happens, he would have enough time to react, and he could also shoot and kill the thug in front of him.
