Chapter 168, Killing Two Birds with One Stone
The girl and the deputy captain of the superpower team both entered the wooden house, and the other superpowers who came with them held Jiang Yu down to prevent him from escaping.
The girl who was shouting moved behind the boy and whispered, "Is there going to be any problem?"
She glanced at Luo Rui, who was silent and pensive, and said, "Luo Rui is very powerful. You must keep a close eye on her and don't let her kill people to silence them."
The young man assessed the woman's ability and curled his lips in disdain: "A fourth-order wood-type ability won't cause any big waves."
Although he said this, he still stared at Luo Rui closely.
It was this woman who arranged for her men to isolate the slums and had them follow that fool Qiao Qiao to find out about him.
If Jiang Ranran hadn't insisted on using her own method to resolve the matter, he would have sneaked into her residence and killed her and the blind man.
...Okay, maybe he doesn't have the strength to fight two people at once, but it would be nice to get a fight to vent his anger. It's a waste of time to calculate and scheme like he is now.
"Qiao Yi." The girl hid behind Qiao Yi and asked curiously, "Who is that person inside?"
This room was where Qiao Yi met Qiao Qiao when she came.
Jiang Ran informed Qiao Yi to meet Qiao Qiao here, and at night moved another person over and threw him on the bed, asking them to guard next door.
There was a movable plywood between the two wooden houses. Everything Jiang Yu did after entering the house was seen by them, otherwise they would not have been able to block him when he was leaving.
Of course, when they were doing this, Jiang Ran had already left through the secret passage.
She said she was going to find an audience for the play, one that could bring the story to a close.
"I thought she would go find the Shen family." Qiao Yi muttered and started watching the game.
…
People have been solved.
It's normal for someone to die in the slums, nothing to worry about.
The reason so many people are watching now is simply because the woman screamed too loudly just now, attracting these idle people to come and watch the fun.
Now that Luo Rui is here, he doesn't need to worry anymore. After all, he is working for her and Shen Shuai.
I just didn’t expect Jiang Ranran to come along.
I haven't seen her for a while. Jiang Ranran is more beautiful than before, and her smile is like a cunning fox.
I heard from those people in the base that Jiang Ranran is Shen Shuai's granddaughter and has the support of the Shen family. Now the base can rest easy.
Seeing the deputy captain's respectful attitude towards her just now, it can be seen that what those people said is true - her status in the Shen family is not low now.
If he had known that she was a member of the Shen family, he should have taken the initiative and not let Si Xu take advantage of her.
…
Luo Rui stood at the door and didn't go in - she knew what was going on in the cabin.
It didn't matter if Jiang Yu was discovered. Even if he was locked up, she could always find a chance to get him out, or - kill him to silence him.
The girl's eyes swept across the crowd of onlookers.
Are these people... all residents of the slums? Did they hear those screams and come out to watch? It's so late, and there are still so many people...
The girl frowned.
Are these people from the ghetto coming out too quickly?
The girls' hearts tightened as they remembered something and they took a deep breath.
Jiang Yu was a person with special abilities. In a slum filled with the elderly, the weak, and the disabled, who could possibly subdue him? Rather than being startled out by the girls' screams to watch the fun, it would be more accurate to say that those people were behind it.
It's a trap.
It was just a moment of panic, and the girl quickly calmed down.
Even if it was a trap, there was no need to worry. The person was already dead, her goal had been achieved, and there was no need to be afraid of subsequent problems - even if those people wanted to avenge their dead companions, she was confident that she could escape unscathed.
Now, she just needs to find a reason to deal with Jiang Yu.
…
The corpse on the bed was chopped beyond recognition, except for a pair of eyes that were wide open and round. Although the pupils were dilated, it was not difficult to see the fear and unwillingness of the deceased before death.
Although the face was covered with scars, Zhong Qian recognized the identity of the deceased at a glance.
The man's eyes widened in shock, and he tried to feel the dead man's pulse again in desperation.
"Dead..." Zhong Qian murmured, and his first reaction was to immediately go back to the Military Control Building to report the current situation.
"Eh... How tragic." The girl, like a ghost, peeked over from behind him and said faintly, "Isn't this Captain Wei? How could he be here, and die so tragically? Deputy Captain Zhong, you must investigate thoroughly. Don't let Captain Wei die in vain."
When she reminded him, Zhong Qian's expression suddenly changed slightly, and he stared at her with complicated eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like that, Vice Captain Zhong?" Jiang Ran took two steps back, his eyes meeting his without dodging.
Zhong Qian was a smart man. He tactfully said nothing and just walked around her and out of the cabin in silence.
Jiang Ran walked to the bed, took one last look at the woman on the bed, and raised his hand to close her eyes.
"Wei Yage, when you get to the underworld, remember to apologize to Qi Yao."
…
Walking out of the wooden house, Zhong Qian stared coldly at the man on the ground who was caught but still looked relaxed, and sneered, "Keep an eye on him!"
He then instructed the people around him, "Go to the Military Control Building to inform Commander Shen and Captain Shen." After a pause, he added, "By the way, see if Professor Si is in the laboratory and ask him to come along."
"yes!"
Should we notify Commander Shen and call Si Xu over as well? Feeling that something was wrong with her plan, Luo Rui walked over to Zhong Qian and said tentatively, "It's getting late now. This is just a matter in the slums. Deputy Captain Zhong can handle it. There's no need to alert Commander Shen..."
"I can't handle it." Zhong Qian replied gently, kicking Jiang Yu to the ground. "Did you kill the man inside?"
Hearing that Shen Shuai was coming, Jiang Yu naturally couldn't let anyone else take the credit. The man's hands and feet were shackled, and he could only stiffen his neck and shout loudly: "I did it, but it was just garbage from the slums. What if I killed him?"
"Rubbish?" Hearing this, Jiang Ran, who was standing in the shadows under the eaves, sneered and said to the bewildered guard, "The one who died in there was the former captain of your Sixth Team. Do you want to go in and take a look?"
"Huh?" The guard was still stunned. "Former captain?" He paused for a moment before coming to his senses. "You, you said the one killed inside was... Captain Wei?"
Without waiting for Jiang Ran to answer, the man pushed away Luo Rui and Zhong Qian who were blocking the door and stumbled into the wooden house.
Soon, a sad wail was heard from inside.
Jiang Ran silently lowered his eyelids and closed his eyes.
Jiang Ran had a slight understanding of how deep the feelings of the members of Team Six were for Wei Yage when he had been troubled by them before.
Although Luo Rui took over the sixth team, in just a few days, she was definitely not as high as Wei Yage in the eyes of those people.
The members of the Sixth Team followed her orders and were simply complying with the arrangements of the Military Control Building.
However, once the bottom line of those men is touched, even Shen Lang will probably not get any benefits.
Knowing what Wei Yage means to the Sixth Team, Luo Rui can't wait to show herself in front of Shen Lang in order to gain more support and recognition, so as to facilitate her development of her own power.
Since she was so anxious, she might as well help her.
I just don’t know if she will have the chance to bring the Sixth Team under her command after tonight?
