Swish!

Three sharp arrows shot from Good Person Jiang Ran's bowstring, deeply embedding themselves into the white wall of the living room.

"Indeed, modern compound bows are much more efficient and easier to use than ancient bows."

Good Person Jiang Ran walked into the living room, pulled out those three arrows, and reloaded them into the quick-release arrow case.

He was still inside Ding Dali's home.

As for the phone call Yang Kang had just made, he didn't believe it was fake.

Because there was no need.

He couldn't see what purpose Yang Kang would have for fabricating such a lie.

And, if it wasn't a lie, then it did serve as a timely reminder for him.

"What a hassle. I haven't even found that person yet, but I've already been targeted as prey by someone else first."

"Since that's the case, I'll just kill them all."

"Once and for all."

Good Person Jiang Ran, holding the modern compound bow with the back-mounted quiver on his back, walked out of Ding Dali's home.

Ding Dali's home was Room 502 in Building No. 2.

After exiting, he passed through the hallway, walked up the stairs, and made his way all the way to the rooftop of Building No. 2.

The rooftop was empty.

The cool autumn-winter wind, at this height of the high-rise platform, blew refreshingly against the body. Even if your brain was a feverish engine, it could cool you down and keep you rational.

Good Person Jiang Ran checked the time—exactly five o'clock in the afternoon, no more, no less.

"I am a good person... a tremendously good person... who loves helping others the most..."

Humming a little tune under his breath.

He walked to the edge of the rooftop and began surveying everything within the scope of Alice Apartment.

Soon, his gaze focused on a middle-aged man who had just walked out of Building No. 1.

That middle-aged man, with his back to Good Person Jiang Ran's direction, was looking left and right, seemingly searching for something.

Good Person Jiang Ran, on the rooftop, lowered his eyes slightly, drew the bow, and shot the arrow in one fluid motion.

With a *swish*!

A sharp arrow flew out!

Following its flight came a piercing scream.

It could be seen that the arrow shot by Good Person Jiang Ran had directly pierced through the middle-aged man's heart from his back.

The middle-aged man fell forward, collapsing onto the concrete ground and convulsing.

Just as the middle-aged man was shot and fell, it seemed there were other people on the first floor of Building No. 1.

A young man immediately came out to check.

Of course, he seemed to have witnessed the entire scene of the middle-aged man being shot.

He didn't come out to check the middle-aged man's condition, but instead looked toward the direction from which the arrow came.

The young man cautiously peeked out, craning his neck high.

His eyes saw Good Person Jiang Ran, who was also looking at him from the rooftop.

With just one glance, he immediately pulled his head back, and with trembling hands, took out his phone and dialed a number.

As soon as the call connected, he roared, "Found Jiang Ran!!! He's on the rooftop of Building No. 2! We have casualties on our side!! I don't know if he knows our plan, but he attacked us directly!!!!!!"

In truth, Good Person Jiang Ran had no idea that middle-aged man was one of The Artist's people; he was just randomly picking a living target to shoot at... Unexpectedly, he hit the mark by sheer luck.

After this phone call.

Not long after, everyone within the criminal group led by The Artist throughout the entire Alice Apartment knew.

And they all rushed toward Building No. 2, while those from the group already inside Building No. 2.

Began heading for the rooftop via the elevator and stairs.

Currently, all members of this group inside Building No. 2 were dressed identically.

A uniform lineup of White Ghost Face Mask Persons.

They were either holding sharp fire axes or chainsaws.

Placed in any horror movie, they would be the perfect villainous serial killers.

But unlike those horror movies, where the terrifying killers are played by actors.

Here, they were all real.

Currently, five White Ghost Face Mask Persons had reached the rooftop of Building No. 2.

Relying on their numerical advantage, they charged into the rooftop in one go.

After rushing onto the rooftop, they immediately looked left and right, dispersing to search for Good Person Jiang Ran's figure.

Swish!

An arrow suddenly shot out from one corner of the rooftop.

The arrow struck a White Ghost Face Mask Person, also in the back, followed by another scream.

The other four White Ghost Face Mask Persons, who had split up, immediately looked toward that direction upon hearing their companion's scream.

Seeing their companion fallen with an arrow in his back, their eyes widened one by one.

They hurriedly looked further away while simultaneously starting to hide behind places on the rooftop that could conceal their figures.

But, ultimately, it was too late.

A White Ghost Face Mask Person who hadn't had time to hide was shot in the head by a sharp arrow, which pierced through his temple from the side and lodged there.

He fell directly to the ground, not even uttering a few groans.

The manner of his death was extremely gruesome.

"The world has changed. It's now the era of ranged weapons, not close combat."

After successively shooting two White Ghost Face Mask Persons, Good Person Jiang Ran slowly walked out from a wall corner on the rooftop.

Speaking leisurely and contentedly, he pulled out the arrow from the back of the nearest fallen person.

Then, looking toward the three others who had already hidden, he swaggered away from the rooftop right in front of them.

The three who were hiding, their bodies concealed beneath black clothing, trembled violently.

Sweat poured profusely from their bodies.

They couldn't control their heavy panting at all.

They simply didn't dare to come out.

After all, who could understand their feelings? They had just come up to the rooftop, and not long after, two companions were shot dead.

At this moment, they only dared to take out their phones and report Good Person Jiang Ran's movements to their group chat.

Good Person Jiang Ran descended from the rooftop to the 10th floor and arrived in front of the elevator.

Seeing the elevator ascending.

His right hand pulled an arrow from the quiver on his back, nocked it on the bow, and aimed at the elevator door.

Soon, the elevator reached the 10th floor, and the doors slowly opened to both sides.

Good Person Jiang Ran, who should have shot the arrow as soon as he saw the doors open, instead frowned in confusion and did not shoot.

Because the arriving elevator was beyond his expectations—it was actually empty? 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Jiang Ran is here!!"

A loud shout rang out.

Good Person Jiang Ran saw several White Ghost Face Mask Persons wielding sharp weapons rushing toward him from both his left and right sides.

It seemed the ascending elevator was just a decoy; this was a feint to divert attention.

Good Person Jiang Ran shifted his body to the right, directly transferring the bow-drawing posture he had maintained, and shot an arrow.

On the right side, the three White Ghost Face Mask Persons charging forward wanted to dodge.

But they were charging too fast, and the arrow's speed was even faster.

This arrow directly struck the chest of the person in the middle.

That person fell, clutching his chest, letting out a shrill scream.

However, this shrill scream did not stop the advancing steps of the White Ghost Face Mask Persons on both sides; on the contrary, they moved even faster.

"This is the disadvantage of arrows. No matter how skilled or fast you are, in this situation, you can't fire a second arrow in time. In contrast, a gun could."

Good Person Jiang Ran sighed softly.

The White Ghost Face Mask Persons on both sides also seemed to have discovered the weakness of Good Person Jiang Ran's bow and arrows.

One by one, they let out low, cold chuckles. Some gripped their fire axes tightly with both hands, ready to hack someone, while others had already started their chainsaws, preparing to let their saws thoroughly enjoy the upcoming feast.
