Chapter 119 Departure
A commotion erupted in the crowd, and someone began to retort: "Why should we listen to a woman like you?"
Immediately, someone chimed in, their voice laced with greed and defiance: "That's right, why should we listen to you? Now that Zhou Muyun and the others are dead, the base is ownerless; it's not your place to give orders."
[You're a woman, so just stay at the base, give birth, and raise the children. Leave the rest to us men.]
Although Pei Qique had been injected with a mental toxin, it did not mean that she had no superpowers. She lowered her eyes and smiled lightly.
[Make an example of them... The Pei family needs to re-establish its authority... A-Yu needs absolute power.]
A hint of murderous intent flashed in the shadow cast by his eyelashes.
The next second, the ground cracked open, and several jet-black thorns shot out, instantly wrapping around the shouter's limbs and neck, tightening and lifting him up...
"Well--!"
Several people were lifted off the ground, their faces flushed, thorns piercing their flesh, and blood dripping down the vines.
The entire room fell silent.
Pei Qique coldly watched them struggle until their eyes rolled back and they stopped struggling, their flesh bursting open...
She glanced at the trembling crowd, then suddenly smiled: "Now... does anyone still have any questions?"
......
At 3:15 a.m., the noise outside the window woke up Lu Nange and her group.
Lu Nange sat up abruptly, her spiritual energy penetrating outwards, and she discovered a large crowd gathered at the boundary between the red and blue zones.
Pushing open the bedroom door and stepping outside, I found the living room still filled with lingering sleepiness.
Lu Beiye was rubbing his sleepy eyes, while He Zhuo leaned against the wall, looking like a noodle that hadn't woken up yet.
"What's that noise?" He Zhuo yawned, making a loud thud on his chin.
Gu Qi: "Curious? Why don't you go take a look?"
"No," He Zhu shook his head like a rattle-drum: "Curiosity killed the cat in the middle of the night. I can resist."
Lu Nange didn't reply and walked straight to the coffee table.
With a flick of the wrist, the supplies appeared out of thin air.
She deliberately placed the antidote in the most conspicuous position and covered it with a note.
After washing up, the group closed the gate and left the villa.
The distant firelight cast long shadows, making them look like a group of menacing monsters.
As they walked toward the exit, Pei Qique's voice made everyone stop.
The group leaned against the shadows in the corner, blending into the thick night, looking at Pei Qique on the high platform. They couldn't help but admit that Auntie Qique's aura was indeed quite cool.
The Jiaxing base is not yet stable. Lu Nange squatted down, wrote another note, found an envelope, and stuffed it in.
He Zhuo: "Little sister, what's wrong?"
Watching Lu Nange write, Gu Wan explained, "We've left so many things behind. What if Aunt Que arrives late and gets snatched up, allowing someone else to benefit?"
He Zhuo slapped his forehead: "Right, right, I'll go deliver it."
Chi Yanzhou pointed to Pei Yuan on the outskirts of the crowd: "Just give it to him."
"We guarantee the mission will be completed."
He Zhuo crouched down and slipped over, grabbing the other man's arm: "Uncle Pei Yuan, when Aunt Que comes down later, give this to her."
Pei Yuan calmly put the letter into his pocket, his nod precise as if it had been measured: "Yes, Mr. He."
He Zhuo, who had prepared a whole host of excuses in anticipation of Pei Yuan's questions, choked and almost choked on his own saliva.
Unable to proceed through the main gate, the group scaled the wall and quietly left the Chiayi City base.
Nighttime is when zombies are most active. After killing more than ten zombies, Lu Nange finally found a secluded spot to take the car out.
As dawn broke, two vehicles, one after the other, left the Chiayi City base through the hazy morning mist.
Meanwhile, at the Chiayi City base—
Pei Qique unfolded the note Pei Yuan handed her, her fingertips pausing slightly: "These children..."
After reading the note Pei Yuan handed him, Pei Qique led his men to the villa where Lu Nange and the others were staying.
Pushing open the door, I saw medicines neatly arranged on the coffee table.
There was a note under the medicine:
[Auntie Que, thank you for your hospitality. These medicines were obtained by chance; you can try them to see if they are the antidote for the neurotoxin.]
Pei Qique held the note in his hand and murmured after a long while, "Running away so fast, he didn't even know to say goodbye properly."
