Chapter 2
It's done, without a single trace
Pang Jing Dong grabbed the gun, and smashed its butt hard against the robber in the back seat. With a loud "bang", the robber was knocked out instantly.
The robber in the front seat had now recovered from the pain, and reached out his hands trying to grab the gun back, but the gun was pointing directly at his abdomen. Pang Jing Dong pulled the trigger straight away.
Few shots were fired, exploding the robber's abdomen. Fresh blood mixed with bits of flesh ran downwards.
Although there was limited space inside the cab, Pang Jing Dong managed to agilely switch aim, and fired a shot at the head of the knocked-out robber in the back seat. Blood splattered everywhere.
In just a blink of an eye, the injured robber was the only one left.
At this moment, Pang Jing Dong was completely different than the guy who was worried because he was late for work. The robber was staring blankly at Pang Jing Dong, too frightened to react.
"Didn't want to kill you at first" Pang Jing Dong let out a sigh, "But now you've seen me."
A gun shot was fired, penetrating the robber's throat. Pang Jing Dong did not shoot at his head as a way of expressing his mercy.
"Goddamn it!" Pang Jing Dong threw the gun aside, and cleaned the blood stain on him, "I already said that I'm late for work!"
As the seat was blocking him between the front and back seats, there was only some blood on his face, his shirt was surprisingly clean.
After wiping the blood from his face, Pang Jing Dong opened the door and was about to leave, but then he remembered something he had to do. He took the gun back, and wiped his fingerprints off carefully.
The cops were now at the scene. With the arrival of the police guaranteeing the safety, the people who were initially trying to run away, had all came back and gathered around to spectate what was happening.
The cops first surrounded the bank, and began to search the surroundings. Pang Jing Dong got out from the cab, and blended in with the messy crowd, and ran straight to his workplace.
Without a doubt, Pang Jing Dong was late, which once again impressed his HR manager Wang Wei Tong, "You really don't give a fuck yeah!"
Till then, Pang Jing Dong was late to work for 14 days within a month's time.
Every time, Pang Jing Dong was coming up with different excuses, like feeling uncomfortable and being sick from all kinds of diseases were the common ones.
Once, Pang Jing Dong even told Wang Wei Tong, that he was helping an old lady who tripped, but in return the old day accused him for knocking her down.
If the excuse was legit, Pang Jing Dong could always be late for work, because he would need to face a trial.
Of course, Wang Wei Tong would happily cooperate with the judicial system, that he would consider firing Pang Jing Dong.
Therefore, Pang Jing Dong would not dare to use the excuse again, and till the day before, he had already used all his excuses, every single part of his body had already "malfunctioned" before, so he had no excuse to be late today.
In fact, he was late again. Wang Wei Tong looked straight at Pang Jing Dong, his angry stare felt like a laser beam that was going to shatter his own glasses and penetrate Pang Jing Dong's heart.
He was a strict person, he would scold his subordinates like he was scolding his own son, but Pang Jing Dong could tell that under his expressionless appearance, he had a kind heart.
Pang Jing Dong swallowed his saliva, "Something special really happened this time."
Wang Wei Tong gave out a cold smirk, "Don't tell me you were in the middle of a bank robbery?"
Pang Jing Dong was shocked, "How did you know?"
"I guessed it." Wang Wei Tong smirked coldly again. "Considering that you are so unlucky all the time, if you want, from now on you can come to work at 11, just in time to make it to lunch!"
Pang Jing Dong was touched, "That would be great!"
"However ." Wang Wei Tong let out an even angrier stare at him, "You have to pay 100 bucks for your own meals every day, if not, pack up your stuff and leave!"
"In that case, won't I be owing the company money after a month?"
"If you want to keep your job, then be punctual." After a brief pause, Wang Wei Tong then said the following sentence word by word, "Especially tomorrow, the new boss is coming, if you are still late, then you really will need to go rob the banks"
The following morning, Pang Jing Dong did leave early, and purposely not taking any shortcuts, but still ended up stuck in a traffic jam.
Pang Jing Dong while sitting in the cab, poked his head out and saw a huge traffic lined up in front of him, and said to himself helplessly, "Why is it so jammed!"
There was a huge downpour the night before, and even though the drainage system of the city was considered incredibly outstanding, there was some leakages which caused some minor flooding on the road, hindering the movement of the traffic.
Not to mention the bank robbery that happened the day before, which as a result the police conducted serious investigations in the area, hence all cars and pedestrians had to be checked upon.
Of course, we all knew that, if the army was having some military simulations, that would cause numerous flights to be delayed for several days in a row, thus this kind of delay was considered nothing at all.
However, if flights were being delayed, one could go and punch the stewardess. But if one was late to work, and went up punching the police officer, that would be a completely different story.
What Pang Jing Dong did not expect, was that he got himself into trouble with a cop, a gorgeous looking lady cop.
While Pang Jing Dong was still having random thoughts in his mind, he lit up a cigarette, and looked again at the traffic in front of him. The vehicles looked like a handful of toothpicks being thrown and splattered onto the floor, and the traffic jam showed no sign of resolving. Pang Jing Dong was grinding his teeth and having a thought, "The distance is not that far away, I might as well run to work from here."
Made up his mind, Pang Jing Dong paid the fare and left the cab. He flicked his cigarette backwards with style, and was about to take his first step, to run at the fastest pace in his life towards his workplace, when he heard a scream behind him.
Pang Jing Dong immediately glanced backwards, and saw a tall looking babe, who was staring at him with a pale face, and with a shivering voice she asked, "What What have you done?"
The lady was wearing a loose low-cut t-shirt, and he had to admit, she did have the assets to dress sexily.
Boobies hanging in front of her like two huge smooth-surfaced snow top peaks, forming a deep cleavage in the middle, and from the cleavage, rose a pile of smoke. Pang Jing Dong almost let out a cry, "Sunlight shines upon the Xiang Ru peaks, revealing purple looking mists."
P.S. - The phrase "Sunlight shines upon the Xiang Ru peaks, revealing purple looking mists" was referring to a famous poem written by the Chinese poet, Li Bai. The poet was describing the scenery he saw at Mount Lu.
"I fucked up!" Pang Jing Dong then realised what just happened, and immediately ran towards the girl, and with his hand reached out to the opening of the t-shirt, trying to find the cigarette's end.
Pang Jing Dong did know that his action would easily cause a misunderstanding, but looking at the helpless lady, he had no other choice. If he waited until she recovered from the shock, either her body would get burnt, or her clothes would instead. Regarding to Pang Jing Dong's intention, he was not trying to molest the girl, so he used his hand to split the t-shirt instead, trying to avoid her boobies, and touching her body. Even so, he could still tell that the girl was wearing a half cup brassiere.
Even though it was a very typical plot, and the difference comparing to other situations, was no one else would have the guts like Pang Jing Dong, to directly reached out his hand into a lady's clothes, except if the person was a pervert.
Just like how this kind of plot usually ended up with, Pang Jing Dong's action did get misunderstood, but not just by any ordinary person.
Pang Jing Dong did manage to find the cigarette's end in between the lady's bras, and just as he was going to extinguish the fire by pinching it, there came a scream beside him, "Pervert!"
