“Oh?" Billy rubbed the bronze snake in his hands, a strong interest gleaming in his eyes. "How exactly can it save lives?"
Bonnie narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced around. "I'll find a wall to demonstrate for you. Mr. Billy, please don’t blame me if I accidentally damage the wall."
"Of course not, absolutely not," Billy laughed heartily and handed the bronze snake back to Bonnie. "Go ahead and show me. I'm curious about how this thing can act as a defense." The more he spoke, the stronger the amusement in his eyes.
To him, the bronze snake Bonnie gifted seemed purely ornamental. When Bonnie mentioned it could save lives, he scrutinized the snake closely but found no hidden mechanisms or switches.
Now, he was especially curious about Bonnie's demonstration and eagerly anticipated the surprise this genius might bring.
Bonnie took the bronze snake from Billy and lightly turned a part of its side.
Click!
The lower part of the bronze snake began to shift. Then, a bullet shot out from the bottom of the snake.
Whiz! Bang!
It hit the opposite wall, almost punching through and leaving a large round hole, showcasing its immense power.
The scene left Billy and his subordinates stunned. No one expected such a powerful weapon from Bonnie's handmade gift. The wall's destruction indicated that flesh and blood wouldn't stand a chance—one shot and it would be lights out.
