Zhou Liang didn't say much to me. He said that someone from the central town would appear here at seven o'clock. I was very curious why someone from the central town would appear here.

Although his plan is unclear, there must be a deeper meaning behind his ambush here.

I'm too lazy to ask; I'll find out in about half an hour anyway.

After a deep yawn, I was slapped awake by Zhou Liang, who said, "I need your help this time, don't fall asleep."

I was taken aback. "You need my help? Can't you handle this by yourself?"

Zhou Liang said, "Of course I can't handle this by myself. Alright, it's about time now. Let me tell you the plan, and then you can act according to it."

"What if I say no?" I replied decisively.

Are you kidding me? Even though I'm your prisoner, I'm not obligated to do anything for you, okay? Go ahead and kill me if you dare.

Zhou Liang smiled slightly and said, "If you help me, I'll tell you something, something that concerns you and is very important to you."

"What is it?" I asked, puzzled.

Zhou Liang raised an eyebrow. "Help me first, and I'll tell you after you're done."

I said, "Tell me first, otherwise how will I know if you're lying to me? What if I do it for you and then you say it was a lie? Wouldn't I be the one who got ripped off?"

Zhou Liang smiled. "Has the young man grown up? He knows how to bargain with me now. Okay, then I'll tell you, this matter is related to your little girlfriend. I remember your little girlfriend's name is Wu Shuang, right?"

My expression changed drastically. How did this bastard know about Wu Shuang?

Wu Shuang had already died long ago, and after I came to Jiajiang, I never mentioned Wu Shuang to him. How did he know?

Zhou Liang saw that I was about to ask, "Hey, don't ask me how I know, and don't ask me what I know. If you want to know about Wu Shuang, just help me finish this task, and then I'll tell you."

"How do I know you're not lying to me? Wu Shuang is already dead!" I suppressed my anger.

Zhou Liang said, "Don't ask me that. If you want to know, finish this task for me first, and I'll tell you then. So, is it a deal?"

I really wanted to punch him to death, but for Wu Shuang's sake, I had to agree. "Deal!"

"Good girl, that's good. Here's my plan..."

Then, Zhou Liang told me about his next action plan. After listening to it, I felt it was absurd. Could it really be done like this? Wouldn't it be exposed?

I found it strange, but since he said so, I had no choice but to do it.

So, with no other choice, I could only sigh and, with about ten minutes left before seven o'clock, I came out of my hiding place and headed towards the central town.

As for Zhou Liang, he went in another direction.

And so, the plan began.

I walked for about five minutes. If it weren't for Wu Shuang's matter, I probably would have run away by now.

After calming down and thinking about it carefully, I realized Zhou Liang might really be lying to me. After all, Wu Shuang is dead, and I buried her myself. But he knows something about Wu Shuang, so I can't help but wonder, what if what he said is true?

So, with that in mind, I could only come out and help him, to refine his plan.

After walking for five minutes, I saw two cars appear in my line of sight not far away.

"People from Central Town?" I wondered to myself. When they got closer, I stepped forward decisively, waved at them, and shouted, "Stop the car, please stop the car, I'm from Central Town!"

When the car in the lead saw me, the person in the passenger seat immediately stuck out a gun. But after hearing what I said and taking a closer look, the person in the passenger seat put the gun down.

They drove up to me, and the person in the passenger seat looked at me and smiled, "Dr. Lu, what are you doing here?"

I was taken aback, and asked in surprise, "You know me?"

The person in the passenger seat laughed and said, "Yes, yes, I was injured last month, and you were the one who bandaged my wound!"

I was stunned for a moment, unable to recall such a thing, but there were just too many people I helped in the central town last month, I couldn't remember them all.

But I still pretended to suddenly realize something, "Oh, you are, you are that..."

"Just call me Lao Li, Dr. Lu."

"Oh, Lao Li, Lao Li," I said with a laugh.

Old Li asked me, "By the way, Dr. Lu, why are you here alone? Weren't you in Central Town before? What happened?"

I sighed and said, "Oh, don't even mention it. I was trying to go back, but I ran into a raider gang on the way. They robbed me and I got lost for two days. I finally found my way here."

"What? The raider gang robbed you? Don't they know you're the doctor from Central Town?"

I shook my head and said, "Who knows? They seemed to not recognize me at all, and when they robbed me, I heard them say that joining Central Town was suicide."

Old Li frowned. "There are people like that?"

At this point, the driver said, "Of course there are. When the boss announced that Central Town was going to incorporate the raiders, many raiders thought it was absurd. It's not surprising that there are people like that."

I said, "By the way, I think I saw those raiders on that road over there when I came over just now."

Old Li said, "Right here?"

I nodded.

Old Li said, "In that case, Dr. Lu, please get in the car first. We'll go over and talk to them, and have them apologize to you."

I nodded and said, "Okay then, just apologize. I wasn't hurt at all. As long as they give my things back, that's fine."

Without saying a word, he got into the car.

Subsequently, the two vehicles from the central town arrived at the place where Zhou Liang and I had previously ambushed each other.

Suddenly, another convoy appeared on the road ahead, and it was clear at a glance that it was a group of raiders.

Old Li asked me, "Is it them?"

I nodded and said, "Yes, it's them."

Then, Old Li said, "Dr. Lu, you wait in the car, I'll go down and talk to them."

After saying that, Lao Li got out of the car, but the car door had just closed when he got out.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out, and an instant gash appeared in Old Li's chest, blood gushing out. Old Li looked down and immediately collapsed to the ground, dead.

I saw this scene from inside the car and was immediately terrified. Was it Zhou Liang who fired the shot?

Then, seeing their own people being killed, the people of Central Town immediately opened fire on the opposing raider team.
