Lin Chudong had intended to avoid vital areas and stage a scene that looked like a fatal injury. He hadn't expected Lei Xingjun to be so decisive, firing a sniper rifle directly. It was likely that Lei Xingjun had staged such a dangerous situation precisely to test him. Although he had witnessed Lin Chudong’s methods and already submitted to him, Lei Xingjun naturally wouldn't pass up such a legitimate opportunity to probe him. He wanted to see just how strong Lin Chudong truly was.
The facts proved that this shot from Lin Chudong would certainly have left him profoundly shaken. It was a rapid counterattack at an extreme distance, all while he himself had been shot. With his skills and reaction speed, dodging that bullet would have been entirely possible. Lei Xingjun even suspected that he might have allowed himself to be hit on purpose; perhaps he had already reached a level of invulnerability. As for the explosion Lei Xingjun had set off to leave behind some skin tissue—that was his own affair.
Su Momo said, "He's dead. Your shot must have hit him, and it triggered an explosion on the rooftop. The body is hard to identify now, but I’ll go take a look later."
