The door was knocked five times.
She dropped her hand, yet suddenly a military dagger appeared in her grasp.
"What on earth are you up to now?"
With curses and complaints, the door rapidly opened, and a middle-aged man with a bare upper body entered.
However, when the man saw a strange waiter standing outside, his face abruptly froze, seemingly caught off guard. Those who knew the secret knock should be from their group, so how could a waiter who got it right be standing out here? Hasn’t the restaurant owner warned them not to just knock on this door?!
In a split second, myriad thoughts flashed through his mind, only then realizing the last possibility...
Someone is here to make an arrest!
"What’s the matter?"
A confused voice was suddenly heard from inside.
But at that very moment, Flossie Wright had already struck. In just seconds, the bare-chested middle-aged man in front of her was kicked to the ground. Intense pain surged from his abdomen, and he could not get up no matter how he tried.
The sound of guns being loaded rang out from inside the room.
Upon seeing the group of quick-reacting goons inside the private room, Flossie Wright took in the entire scene at a glance, cursing under her breath at the surprise.
Hadn’t heard that these lowlife thugs had guns too!
Thoughts whirled quickly in her mind, but she didn’t rest idle. Flossie Wright instinctively rolled on the floor, pulling the fallen middle-aged man up to shield herself.
Although this man’s body couldn’t block an assault rifle’s bullets and the bullets might even go through him and hit her, this was an instinctual reaction when faced with danger.
Moreover, this man had a gun on his person too.
Flossie Wright’s actions were incredibly swift. As she drew the gun from the man’s waist, the others who had just armed themselves finally reacted. After all, they were in a public place and their gunshots would draw attention from outside. Unless absolutely necessary, they would never just shoot.
However, the moment Flossie Wright grabbed the gun, they had no hesitation. They pulled the trigger, directing their gunfire at her.
The death of a comrade didn’t affect them. In their line of work, they had to be ready for death at any moment. As long as their goods could be transported out, all would be fine!
How could they have imagined that they would be discovered by those damn cops, even in such a public place!
"Bang, bang—"
"Bang, bang, bang—"
The continuous sound of gunfire echoed. However, the first to shoot was Flossie Wright herself.
The moment she entered, she had spotted the white powder on the table — obviously concealed in haste and not cleaned up in time.
Flossie Wright hadn’t expected that two groups of criminals would be hiding in what seemed to be a normal restaurant, and the group she had stumbled upon incidentally was much more dangerous than the one she had initially set out to confront!

With an irritated frown on her face, the middle-aged man shielding her already bore no signs of life. As Flossie rapidly sought cover in the room, she held in her hand a 444SS6 Revolver that could only load six bullets. And there were more than ten people in the room. Even if she could take down a thug with each bullet, several would still be left standing.
She had to engage in close combat!
While skillfully dodging, Flossie Wright calmy took down the ones carrying assault rifles. One bullet, one life. But the overwhelming firepower made it hard for her to expose herself. She could only strike back during openings. But if any of them could reach her, they could easily take her down!
