After a while of small talk, Kenneth said, “Don't let Nat learn about this.”
“Okay, I got it.”
“That's all for now. We'll talk about the rest after getting back.”
“Okay.”
With that, the phone call ended.
Anthony was searching for something in the car when he asked, “Daddy, where did Mr. Dave say the auto-launch button was again?”
“Why are you looking for that?”
“To make sure it's where it is. That way, we'll be able to use it if we're under attack again.”
Benjamin was speechless to hear that.
Kenneth looked around the interior of the car before landing his gaze on a spot. He reached out to press the spot, and the screen above changed. The design plan of the car was on it, and there were three machine-gun-barrel-looking items on the top, bottom, and sides of the car.
“There it is,” Anthony said.
Benjamin leaned over as well. After a while of studying it, he said, “Mr. Dave didn't just install one side; he installed four.”
“Can you really modify the car in this way?” Anthony wondered out loud.
“You can achieve anything with money,” Benjamin replied. “But this means some of the other functions might have to be forgone.”
“You know about this?” Anthony looked at his brother in shock.
“I'm only guessing based on the structure,” Benjamin answered nonchalantly before turning to Kenneth. “Daddy, can I take a look?”
“I don't know how this works. Search for it yourself.”
Benjamin began studying the car.
He looked for the circuit based on the position of the installations and continued searching from there on.
Anthony just watched him from the side without disturbing him, for there was nothing he could help his brother with anyway. Benjamin was just like Natasha when he was serious about something, and Anthony did not dare to disturb him.
A moment later, Benjamin announced happily, “I found it!” He then lifted his head to look at Kenneth. “Daddy, can you open this for me?”
Kenneth glanced at him from the rearview mirror and replied, “I'll try.”
He searched the car before instinctively reaching out for a spot.
“Wait, Daddy,” Anthony suddenly stopped him. “Are you sure this is the one?”
Kenneth confessed, “No.”
Anthony blinked. “Then did the people in the car behind us crossed us or something?”
It was then Kenneth recalled that Mike's car was still behind theirs.
He took his phone and called Mike. “Mike, don't drive behind me. Move to the side.”
“Got it.”
Upon receiving his response, Kenneth pressed the button without hesitation.
Fortunately, Kenneth's instincts were right.
The left structure changed once he pressed the button. The middle part started lifting and lowering, and a few seconds later, the section opened to reveal many bullets with powerful penetrating capabilities.
When Benjamin saw it, his eyes lit up. “Mr. Dave's such a generous man!”
Anthony glanced over. “What's the matter?”
“If we had used these earlier, the car behind us would have been filled with holes.”
“Is it that powerful?”
Benjamin nodded. “Of course. Look at the tip of the bullet. It's been modified for stronger piercing capabilities. As long as it hits its target, its target is unlikely to escape unscathed.” As he spoke, he took one to show Anthony.
However, Anthony could not figure out what was different about it.
