Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God Chapter 1459 - 1458
Previously on Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God...
Lin Fan’s words gave Tony Smith an eerie feeling, as if Lin Fan could control his sniping, pointing and shooting wherever he wanted.
How could it be?
Tony Smith shook his head, forcing himself to calm down. Lin Fan was formidable, but no matter how formidable he was, he wasn’t an Immortal. How could he control his sniping?
However, once this thought formed, even though he felt it was absurd, Tony Smith still had deep misgivings.
There’s always a chance, no matter how small.
What if?
What if his sniper’s next shot really hit him?
He couldn’t gamble with his life.
"So, Mr. Smith, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going," Lin Fan said with a smile.
Smith’s forehead was sweaty; he never expected himself to be intimidated by a young man, unable to make a move.
But if he just let Lin Fan leave, it would mean he would never know who the target was. His son would be identified in court the next day by the target.
The only thing he could take solace in was that there was no death penalty in the United Kingdom, and his son might end up with life imprisonment, his life spared.
No!
He couldn’t accept this; he had high hopes for his son, Brooklyn, as he was the eldest son, groomed as the heir of the Smith Clan. He couldn’t accept his son becoming a prisoner.
This would surely result in Brooklyn losing his position as heir of the Smith Clan.
"I won’t give in to superstition!"
Tony Smith gritted his teeth, deciding he had to teach Lin Fan a lesson. He was determined to kill Li Zixia!
Just as Tony Smith was about to give the order for the sniper to continue firing at Li Zixia.
The doors of the church suddenly opened.
A group of police rushed in.
Leading them was a pretty blonde policewoman.
"London police, everyone freeze!" The blonde policewoman showed her badge and shouted loudly.
Tony Smith’s expression changed as he stared at Lin Fan: "You called the police?"
Lin Fan said: "I did not."
Tony Smith stood up, approaching the blonde policewoman: "Officer, with such a big scene, what’s the matter? I am Tony Smith."
The blonde policewoman glanced at Tony Smith and said: "I’m not here for Mr. Smith."
With that, the blonde policewoman walked up to Lin Fan, looked him over, and said, "You must be Mr. Lin, Lin Fan?"
Lin Fan replied: "I am."
The blonde policewoman’s expression changed slightly, as if a bit in awe, like a fan meeting an idol, though she kept her emotions well in check, and said: "Mr. Lin, I am Alice Gauss with the London police. I’m investigating a case involving the Earth Wolf Gang. Please, Mr. Lin and Miss Li, come with me to the station."
Lin Fan gave a slight "oh," wondering why the London police were looking for him about the Earth Wolf Gang.
He observed the blonde policewoman’s expression, sensing she might be hiding something.
"I’d like to go with you, but I need to ask if Mr. Smith will let us go? Mr. Smith, are you still going to shoot at us?" Lin Fan asked, looking at Tony Smith.
Tony Smith chuckled: "What kind of joke is Mr. Lin making? Since it’s a police subpoena, Mr. Lin should just go."
Lin Fan turned to Li Zixia: "Let’s go then."
Immediately, Lin Fan followed the London police toward the church exit.
Tony Smith looked at their backs with reluctance, but he held back and said: "Abort the target. Everyone, report to me immediately!"
Several snipers came up to Tony Smith.
Tony Smith said discontentedly: "I asked you to shoot that woman earlier, what were you doing? Why did you all miss?"
The three snipers responsible for aiming at Li Zixia looked puzzled at each other, not knowing how to explain.
Tony Smith asked: "What’s going on? I’m asking you, speak up!"
One of the snipers finally said: "Mr. Smith, I swear, I had her head in my sights. It should have been foolproof, but just as I pulled the trigger, it felt as if someone pushed me, and I missed."
Tony Smith asked: "Someone pushed you?"
The sniper replied: "No, I mean, it felt as if someone pushed me. It’s very eerie, and I don’t know how to explain it."
The other two snipers said: "Yes, Mr. Smith, I had the same experience."
"So did I. It was really strange."
Tony Smith was taken aback. These three snipers, located in different positions, all at the same time felt they were pushed. And the strangest part? They all missed and hit George Green!
How do you explain that?
There’s simply no logical explanation other than calling it eerie!
Could it be that Lin Fan really has some special ability?
Just like those superheroes in Marvel movies, possessing superpowers?
Mental control?
Or striking from afar?
If that’s true, then what Lin Fan said earlier, "Believe it or not, the next shot will all hit you," could really be possible?
Thinking of this, Tony Smith broke into a cold sweat.
It seems that the timely arrival of the London police not only saved Li Zixia’s life but actually saved Tony Smith’s life!
Tony Smith was filled with fear after realizing this.
This hypothesis, although unfounded, fits the facts so well. Also, how else did Lin Fan single-handedly diffuse the hijacking crisis?
If Lin Fan really has superpowers, that could explain it.
Tony Smith suddenly felt his worldview was overturned. Could there really be superpowers in this real world?
How could he possibly compete against such a person?
"Boss, what should we do now? Are we just going to let him go like this?"
The Chinese man who had dealt with Lin Fan before came over, unwilling to give up.
Tony Smith frowned.
The Chinese man continued: "He said something about recording everything earlier, and if he has evidence..."
Tony Smith sneered: "So what if he has evidence? He can’t do anything to me. In the United Kingdom, no one can touch me!"
The Chinese man quickly said: "Yes, with the boss’s power..."
Tony Smith said: "Give me the phone. I didn’t want to use this Royal Family connection, but for my son, it seems I have to."
Even if Lin Fan has superpowers, so what?
In the end, he’s just one person. He’s in the United Kingdom; can he fight against the whole United Kingdom?
As long as Lin Fan is in the United Kingdom, even if he were Thanos, Tony Smith would have ways to suppress him. Lin Fan underestimates the Smith family.
The Smith family has been developing in the United Kingdom for hundreds of years. The family’s business involves Royal Family members. With this connection, the Smith family can call the shots in London.
Of course, unless absolutely necessary, Tony Smith was unwilling to use this connection to solve his son’s issue.
But the current situation forced Tony Smith to do so.
