Chapter 404
by REX-NOVELISTS“Chief Gao, don’t waste your efforts.
All the residents of building 486 are now fast asleep, and no alarm, however loud, can wake them.
Did you really think we were so stupid as to walk willingly into your trap?”
Gao Rongguang was about to retort, but the scene before him became increasingly blurred, the figures gradually overlapping, until he was plunged into darkness.
He fell heavily to the ground, closing his eyes with great reluctance.
Ye Anqi looked at Lin Qianhuan, somewhat bewildered. “He… what’s wrong with him?
What happened to the residents of building 486?”
Lin Qianhuan raised her hand and gently patted her shoulder to reassure her.
“Don’t worry, Sister Anqi, rest assured, I haven’t harmed their lives, I’ve just put these people to sleep.”
She opened the door and walked out of the room, pointing to the charcoal braziers burning in the hallway.
“My inside man added something to these charcoal braziers, a colorless and odorless spice that causes unconsciousness if inhaled in excess.
In order to deal with the two of us, Gao Rongguang summoned all his men to stay at home on standby, forbidding them from going out.
This decision conveniently caused everyone to fall victim, saving us a lot of trouble.”
As soon as she finished speaking, slightly chaotic footsteps suddenly echoed in the hallway.
Ye Anqi immediately became vigilant, thinking there were survivors, and was about to act subconsciously.
Lin Qianhuan quickly stepped forward to stop her. “These people are my teammates, don’t hurt them by mistake!”
In the brief moment she spoke, Jiang Xing and the others had already stepped into the room.
Ye Anqi took a closer look. Weren’t these the people who had stopped them and wanted to search them earlier today?
She had seen them a few times before, all Gao Rongguang’s trusted aides.
How had they become Lin Qianhuan’s teammates?
Lin Qianhuan didn’t explain, but took out pills from her space and handed them to Jiang Xing and the others, who immediately returned to normal after taking them.
“They disguised themselves and replaced Gao Rongguang’s trusted aides, taking advantage of their unpreparedness to sprinkle the spice into the charcoal braziers throughout the building.
Building 486 burns charcoal braziers every day, and the spice is colorless and odorless, so no one could detect it.”
Ye Anqi looked at the people before her, especially He Lu, her face filled with shame.
“I’m sorry, little sister, I didn’t know you were Huanhuan’s teammate. My attitude towards you was not good at the time, I’m very sorry.”
He Lu shook her head indifferently. “You had a bad attitude towards bad people, not me.”
Jiang Xing stepped forward and gently took Lin Qianhuan’s hand, taking out a plastic-sealed mask from his pocket and carefully putting it on her.
“The smell in the building is strong, wearing a mask will make you feel better.”
Lin Qianhuan didn’t refuse, only raised her hand to touch his head.
“Well done, I didn’t expect you to have a talent for acting.”
Jiang Xing chuckled and reached out to intertwine his fingers with hers.
“As your man, I can’t hold you back, can I?”
Yi Hao stood by with his arms crossed, rolling his eyes slightly speechlessly. “You two, stop showing affection, how do we deal with so many people in the building?”
Lin Qianhuan cleared her throat and took out a pile of handcuffs and fetters from her space.
“Restrain all the ordinary residents, and kill Gao Rongguang’s confidants and subordinates directly, leave none alive.”
Ye Anqi’s eyes were firm, and she added, “Also kill those residents who betrayed the base and completely sided with Gao Rongguang.”
Jiang Xing exchanged a glance with Lin Qianhuan and nodded.
They worked like this until morning, and no one in the base noticed that building 486 had changed hands.
He Lu did not participate in the action, but broke into Wu Qiju’s home with a knife.
When the door was broken open, the father and son were still asleep.
When they realized someone was standing by the bed, they were both scared out of their wits.
“Ah!”
An extremely shrill scream rang out softly, and Wu Qiju crawled off the bed in a panic, shrinking into a corner and daring not to look up.
Wu Zong appeared calmer, holding several metal blades in each hand, looking at He Lu warily.
“Who are you? Who sent you?”
He Lu held a dagger in her left hand, quietly looking at the father and son before her, a cruel and bloodthirsty smile on her face.
“My name is He Lu, I wanted to come here myself.”
Wu Qiju shivered and hid behind Wu Zong, trembling as he shouted, “What He Lu? We don’t know you!
Did our enemies send you? How much did they pay you? I’ll give you double!”
He Lu looked at him quietly, her expression growing colder and colder, with no trace of her usual innocence and cuteness.
“Don’t you remember me?”
Wu Qiju frowned at her, shaking his head hesitantly. “I don’t remember, have we met before?”
He Lu sneered upon hearing this, somewhat self-deprecatingly.
“Before I was 8 years old, my name was Wu Niannian.”
Wu Qiju muttered to himself, a trace of confusion flashing in his turbid eyes, followed by immense fear.
“Wu Niannian? Wu Niannian!”
He Lu nodded, carefully wiping the dagger in her hand. “Yes, Wu Niannian.
The daughter you deliberately abandoned in the amusement park.
I really didn’t expect you to still remember me.”
Wu Qiju retreated in fear, feeling that everything was so unreal.
She was only 8 years old when she was abandoned, how could she still remember his face?
And how could she find him after the apocalypse?
“What do you want to do? Are you here for revenge?”
Wu Qiju mustered his courage to look at He Lu. “I’m your father! Do you want to commit patricide?
It was your mother who abandoned you, she didn’t want you, why did she throw that burden onto me?
I want to get married and have sons, which woman would be willing to marry me if I brought you along?”
