In close combat, a knife is better than a gun.
Raising the arm, twisting the wrist, pulling the trigger—even the quickest sequence requires two to three steps before causing harm, while an opponent only needs to thrust a knife or divert your arm to succeed.
This man was skilled with a gun and confident enough to shoot and kill an ordinary person approaching him, but Wu was no ordinary person. From the way Wu had dodged the bullet and then charged with such speed and momentum, he immediately recognized him as a dangerous individual!
Without any hesitation, he discarded his gun, stepped back, and drew a dagger from behind his waist.
Given his reaction and speed, he could have managed to fire another shot, but he chose not to because if Wu dodged, the next move would surely be a stab at his arm.
Facing such a menacing foe, once his right hand was injured and weaponless, he wouldn't stand any chance at all.
Clang!
