The clone was shot in the chest. He took a few steps back and knelt on one knee.
“Argh!” The clone cried out in pain and subconsciously covered his chest. Blood flowed out from between his fingers.
“Ahhh, help!”
The crowd immediately fell into chaos. The timid ones squatted on the ground and tried to hide under the stools.
“Mr. Everett!” Darcy and the security guards exclaimed and rushed up to protect him.
But it was too late.
The murderer’s attack was clean and efficient. He hit the target with one strike. There was no unnecessary movement, nor was there any room for defense.
No one would have thought a murderer would sneak in on such an occasion.
Moreover, everyone had to go through security checks to enter such an event. Firearms and knives were not allowed to be brought in.
Of course, there were many ways to avoid security checks. For example, by replacing regular guns with ivory-made guns, security checks would be unable to detect them.
Bang! Bang! The murderer fired two more shots.
“Catch the murderer. Don’t let him escape.”
“Ah, help!”
Security guards wearing protective masks and stun guns quickly ran toward the person who fired.
Pang! There was a loud crash from the ceiling.
Someone shot the electricity meter, causing the circuit to be cut off suddenly. The entire venue immediately fell into darkness; only the fire control indicator lights were on.
“Help! Murder! Murder!” The crowd wailed.
Darcy couldn’t be bothered to chase after the murderer. He hurriedly checked the clone’s injuries. “Call an ambulance quickly and send Mr. Everett to the hospital immediately.”
“Um…” The clone sucked in some cold air, and his mind went blank.
“Mr. Everett, hang in there. We’ll send you to the hospital now.”
“Help.”
Soon.
Darcy and Carson quickly escorted the clone to the hospital.
Beep, beep, beep.
Bruce was eating with Joanna and Lilia when his phone suddenly rang.
“Hello…” Bruce answered the call casually.
Darcy’s panicked voice came from the other end of the phone. “Mr. Everett, something bad has happened.”
When Bruce heard this, he frowned. “What happened?”
“Something happened to Mr. Boris. He was shot at the charity gala, and his life is in danger.”
“What?” Bruce suddenly stood up from his seat.
“What’s the situation now?”
“Someone snuck an ivory pistol through security. Mr. Boris was shot when he went on stage to give a speech. Mr. Boris has been shot in the chest and sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.”
When Bruce heard this, he gulped immediately, and blood rushed to his head.
After thinking for a few seconds.
“Darcy, no matter what, you must save his life.”
“No matter what, we must not let him die. If we really can’t save him, we must hide the news. We can’t let the news of his death be leaked to the public.”
“I know.”
“Then that’s it.”
“Will do.”
After hanging up.
Bruce knitted his brows tightly. His sharp eyes revealed a trace of coldness.
Now that the clone had taken his place, Bruce had died if Boris was shot to death in front of everyone.
He would ultimately become an illegal person! In other words, he would no longer be able to appear in the public eye as Bruce.
Moreover, cloning was not allowed in the country. The cloning incident would still cause considerable commotion if it were leaked.
No matter what happened, clones could not die. At the very least, they could not die in front of everyone.
