Chapter 571 Suddenly I felt sympathy for the City Lord



Fan was stunned.

Ling Xiu also looked at Lin Wu in confusion.

Only Ren Ke raised his eyebrows and clicked his tongue.

Lin Wu said nothing. He looked down at the dagger in his hand, pressed his fingers against the black stone inlaid on the top, and with a little force, he knocked the black stone off.

The handle was hollow inside. Lin Wu shook it and an instrument flashing red light fell out.

Seeing it, the man's expression froze, then was replaced by disbelief.

"The night Ren Ke came to kill me, she put some parts in here before she left, but there were still some things missing."

Lin Wu said slowly, "It just so happens that the listening devices Ling Xiu left in the trash can in my room last night, after disassembling them, the total number of parts, mixed with the existing ones, is enough for me to make a new micro-navigator."

She looked up and looked at the man.

"I've reminded you many times that I'm better than you when it comes to electronic equipment."

There was dead silence in the room.

Fan stared at Lin Wu intently: "That night, she stabbed you with a knife, not because she really wanted to hurt you, but because she wanted to take the opportunity to leave the knife for you to use..."

Ren Ke rolled his eyes. "If I really want to kill Lin Wu, wouldn't it be easier if Duo Zang brought the gun with him? Even though I might be discovered, I can disguise the scene and escape successfully. Besides, I'm desperate now, why should I worry so much about not being able to use the gun?"

As a killer, he knows best what method and time are most appropriate to kill.

How stupid must she be to use a knife to stab someone when she knew Fan was right there with a gun at her fingertips, making it impossible for her to do it? "Of course, this micro device is too small, and its range of action is not too large. It can only guarantee positioning within a radius of dozens of miles to prevent people from getting lost."

Lin Wu put the device back, buckled the black stone, and returned the dagger to Ren Ke.

Then he said, "But I didn't say I only prepared this one."

"There were a lot of waste in the Ninth Battalion before. I crossed out their names and had them disposed of. According to custom, they were thrown into the ice ocean around the island."

She curled her lips slightly, "At least one-fifth of those people have devices in their bodies, which are more useful than this. No matter which one you take out, they can be followed back. Even if they get lost, the devices they take away can communicate with the remaining devices to locate them."

Ling Xiu was shocked: "How did you do that?"

Lin Wu glanced at Zheng Lian.

Zheng Lian nodded and said calmly, "The city lord's people are everywhere. He has already placed many people around the deputy city lord. It just so happens that I can control these people."

Ren Ke shrugged, "Of course I acquiesced. They were people I planted there anyway, and Lin Wu embarrassed me in public, so it's normal for me to go and see them, right?"

It would be easy for her to find an excuse to send some of Fan's men away and buy some time for others to take action.

Fan looked at Lin Wu deeply, his face dark and deep: "So many people, you executed them all, just to get a navigation? An Sheng, you have changed, you would not do this before."

Lin Wu smiled, "But didn't you realize that those are actually your people?"

Fan was stunned.

Ren Ke crossed his arms and said, "Before we started, I had already replaced nearly half of the people. They were all the people you placed with me. In the past few years, they haven't been very clean, and they deserved to die. The rest are people you didn't trust Lin Wu, so you wanted to take advantage of the newcomers to ambush her. Not only did they pretend to be newcomers, but they also did a lot of dirty things for you."

There was a hint of sarcasm in her words: "Lin Wu dealt with them in front of you. You knew clearly that your people were among them, but you said nothing and acquiesced. Who are you pretending to be heartbroken for now? You're making yourself look so kind."

As soon as these words were spoken, the huge hall fell into an even more eerie silence.

Fan looked at Ren Ke with an unclear look in his eyes, and suddenly said, "I am indeed not a good person, but over the past few years, I have never had the intention to kill you. I really wanted to keep you by my side forever, if you were obedient. And when I asked you to leave the island before, I also wanted to keep you away from danger."

Ren Ke was stunned.

Lin Wu and Ling Xiu looked at each other and said nothing.

Fan Wei took a breath and said, "It seems that I will definitely die here today." He actually stretched out his hand to Ren Ke, "Before I die, come here and let's talk alone, okay?"

"I regretted killing you that night," he said softly.

Lin Wu said suddenly: "Go ahead. I'll give you three minutes to say goodbye to him." After that, she stood up and told Ling Xiu to take everyone out.

Lingxiu was hesitant to speak.

Ren Ke was stunned: "Lin Wu, are you serious?"

Lin Wu waved his hand, and Ling Xiu had no choice but to follow Lin Wu.

Zheng Lian glanced at Fan, who was pale and staggering due to blood loss. He said nothing and ordered everyone around him to get out.

Lin Wu left no one behind.

Seeing that she was so confident that she really let everyone go outside, Ling Xiu said with wide eyes: "You are not kidding? Aren't you afraid that Fan Ta will take the opportunity to hold Ren Ke hostage..."

Lin Wu sat down on the steps to rest, looked up at the sky which was still dark despite the firelight, and said in an ambiguous tone: "No. Only after tonight can Ren Ke truly let it go."

Ling Xiu looked back at the empty corridor. She couldn't hear any movement from inside.

She simply sat down next to Lin Wu and stopped thinking about it. She asked, "What about the Huo family? When Zheng Lian came, he said that he had dealt with all the people on the island. I wanted to ask what they were dealing with. And I heard from you that the Huo family is not ours. What's going on?"

Lin Wu was a little absent-minded, not knowing what he was thinking. He said, "I asked Ren Ke to fake his death and leave the island. He met up with the people I arranged in advance in the Ice Prison and went to find Lord Bai Hai along the South China Sea route. When Lord Bai Hai saw Ren Ke, he knew that the time I mentioned had come, and he contacted my second brother and others."

"But I never thought of using their people this time. When I defected a few years ago, they used up too many people. It was a big loss. It's not worth it to do it again."

"My second brother You Yuan met the Huo family in Lingnan. He knew that I wanted to use the Huo family as a gun, so he must have gone to find Zheng Yuan. Zheng Yuan has a trump card I left behind."

Ling Xiu asked: "What's the trump card?"

"The Huo family stole two bags of minerals from me and brought them back to the base camp. There is a location in that thing, which they haven't discovered yet. We can find them by following this location. My second brother and Ren Ke will pretend to be people from the Killer City and attack them, but we won't let them suffer any losses, we will just anger them again."

"Then we will lead them to Killer City. Then Ren Ke and my second brother will split into two groups, one going to the island and the other to the Ice Prison, and lead them to fight against the people from Killer City. Once the Huo family takes over the Ice Prison, my second brother and his men will be waiting behind and take the opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop."

"Here, before Ren Ke faked his death, I asked Zheng Lian to steal a sign from the city lord and give it to Ren Ke for safekeeping. When something happens on the island, I will get away to retrieve the sign, and Ren Ke will come to pick me up. As for the Huo family members who came to the island, Zheng Lian and his men, who were forgotten by Fan, will take care of them."

This way, you kill two birds with one stone.

It can not only eliminate the Killer City, but also seriously damage the Huo family and make them incompetent.

After all this, she didn't lose much. It was worth her previous efforts to confront the Huo family and let them go.

Ling Xiu took a breath of cold air, "You really are..."

Lin Wu leaned back, half lying on the steps, and stretched.

"It's troublesome. Of course it's better to solve multiple problems at once. So as to avoid delays later." She said lightly.

Ling Xiu was speechless.

Xiang Xiang asked again: "What is the brand you asked Ren Ke to keep?"

Lin Wu glanced at her meaningfully: "A badge that allows you to successfully enter the eighteenth floor of the Ice Prison."

Ling Xiu's pupils shrank: "This... can be stolen successfully? No, you dare to steal this from the city lord? You caught the city lord taking so many things, aren't you afraid that the city lord will be furious?"

Lin Wu spread his hands and said, "He said so. He won't care what I do. Since he chose me, I have to endure it no matter how angry I am. Besides, I didn't let him suffer much."

Ling Xiu subconsciously looked into the distance. The gunfire and bullets had stopped, but the entire island seemed to be bathed in a bloody nightmare. The smell of gunpowder in the air was suffocating.

It was very different from the island just a few hours ago.

“………”

Suddenly I felt very sympathetic towards the city lord.

After going out, my home seemed to have collapsed.
