Lambert directly apologized to Maximilian because he really didn’t want to fight with Maximilian. If he won, he may irritate the person behind Maximilian; if he lost, he would die or be badly wounded. After considerations, Lambert had to surrender.
Maximilian shook his head and said, “There are so many choices in your life. Now that you have chosen to be my enemy, you are my enemy forever. You should stay to your original intention.”
Lambert’s thought was in a disorder. He thought to himself that he had already given in and that why Maximilian connected it with original intention. He had been interested in money, which had not changed.
“Maximilian, what should I do to beg your forgiveness? In fact, I don’t play Kung Fu. I am the same person with Master Martin who practices Tai Chi. All I have learned are superficial.” Lambert abandoned his face and covered his chest with hands, pretending to be in pain. He said, “Ouch, myocardial infarction hits me. I am dying.” At the same time, Lambert went backward. If Maximilian didn’t want to let him go, he planned to escape to the backyard.
“You are an awkward actor. You are able to defend the punch I have done to you, which means you play Kung Fu well. So let us continue, don’t give up.” Maximilian walked to Lambert, who completely wanted to give in and the only thought in his mind was to escape.
Lambert turned around and ran toward the long corridor leading to the back yard. When he went through Luke’s followers, he didn’t forget to push several people out to defend himself against Maximilian.
Suddenly, near the corridor, there was a mess. The followers withdrew to fight Lambert, and ran to Maximilian. Maximilian frowned and addressed the followers easily. They were beaten to cry and several people were flying into the air.
A roar of engines came. The second-generation riches from the Sports Car club arrived. Seeing the Mercedes SUV stopped beside the yard, Canaan’s eyes flashed with excitement. “This is the car. We finally find it. I will take a careful look to see how the car is modified.”
When he opened the door of his car, he heard yelling from the yard. He was scared and sat back into the car. “What’s the fucking noise? Is this place haunted?” Canaan said in panic.
A man sitting in the driving seat looked at the sky of the yard agape and said in stillness, “Look at the sky. Does it look like fireworks?” Canaan looked up at the sky and saw several sturdy men flying into the sky with yelling. Some of them spat blood, with horrors defied description.
“You say fireworks? A group of sturdy men are beaten like dogs. What the hell is the guy driving the Mercedes? What’s happening in the courtyard?” Canaan took out a cigarette box in trembling and wanted to ease his tension via smoking.
“Ca…Canaan, I think we’d better go. When others come, we can come back and find the guy.”
“Don’t be afraid. I bring the consecrated artifact with me. Even if the yard is haunted, I will never be hurt. I have survived the incident just now. There must be good luck waiting for me. I will have a cigarette to calm down first. When the yelling stops, we can go inside and have a look.”
Canaan held a cigarette in his mouth and was not able to lighten it with trebling hands. His eyes were fixed on the door of the yard with terror and he put his hands on the shift level, in a position to run away as long as the door was open.
In the yard, Luke’s followers were beaten into coma. Walking through the corridor, Maximilian ran after them into the backyard.
Going through the corridor and walking to the backyard, Lambert didn’t greet Luke and Uncle Powell. He just walked toward the back door. Uncle Powell suddenly realized the dangerous situation and pushed Luke to follow Lambert. He said, “Lambert, slow down, and we should leave together.”
“Do you have a car? If you do, find the key. They are too weak to stop Maximilian for long. Hurry up!” Lambert said with anxiety. At the same time, he kicked the back door open and went out of the door first.
