The signature at the end of the document was none other than Qin Wan'er!
"You Qin Wan'er, you're a vicious snake!" Lu Zhaoming said through gritted teeth. He finally understood that Qin Wan'er had been hostile to him from the very beginning, and everything she did was to put him to death.
He carefully put the plan away and then left the abandoned factory.
Upon returning to base, he immediately found Bai Yu and handed him the evidence.
"Bai Yu, this is very important. You must keep it safe and make sure Qin Wan'er doesn't find out!" Lu Zhaoming instructed.
Bai Yu took the plan, read it carefully, and was immediately enraged.
"Brother Zhaoming, this woman is too vicious! She actually came up with such a dirty trick to frame you!" he said angrily. "I'm going to expose her true colors right now!"
"No!" Lu Zhaoming quickly stopped her. "Qin Wan'er must have made preparations. Going now will only alert her. Listen to me, hold your position for now, and wait for the right opportunity to expose her conspiracy!"
Although Bai Yu was somewhat unwilling, he still followed Lu Zhaoming's advice.
However, Bai Yu was young and impetuous, and he could not tolerate such humiliation.
That night, he gathered some survivors who trusted Lu Zhaoming without authorization, intending to expose Qin Wan'er's conspiracy in public in the square.
As it turned out, Qin Wan'er was already prepared.
When Bai Yu took out the plan and prepared to reveal the truth, Qin Wan'er preemptively accused Bai Yu of being the mastermind behind the scenes, slandering him for fabricating evidence and framing her in order to seize power.
"Fellow villagers, you must keep your eyes open! This Bai Yu pretends to be honest and kind on the surface, but he is actually treacherous and cunning. He just wants to use me to achieve his ulterior motives!" Qin Wan'er cried and wailed, her acting skills were worthy of an Oscar.
The survivors were all fooled by Qin Wan'er's acting skills. They all blamed Bai Yu, and some even hit him.
"Kill this hypocrite!"
"Give me back my hard-earned money!"
"Get out of the base!"
Bai Yu was speechless, and Qin Wan'er snatched the plan from his hand and tore it to shreds.
"Arrest him! Punish him severely!" Qin Wan'er shouted.
The soldiers swarmed forward, arrested Bai Yu, and locked him in a cell.
Upon learning the news, Lu Zhaoming immediately rushed to the detention cell.
He was filled with regret, realizing he had underestimated Qin Wan'er's cunning.
When he arrived at the detention cell, he found Su Li there as well.
She stood at the cell door, looking at him coldly.
"Mr. Lu, do you have anything else to explain?" Su Li's voice was as cold as frost in the dead of winter.
Lu Zhaoming's heart sank to the bottom. He knew that the rift between him and Su Li was irreparable...
When Lu Zhaoming arrived at the detention cell, he saw Su Li's icy face that seemed to say "keep away." Tsk, when this girl gets angry, her aura is two meters and eighty centimeters!
He smiled bitterly to himself, realizing he was now in a situation he couldn't clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
“Mr. Lu, if you really haven’t done anything wrong, you should tell us everything.” Su Li’s voice was like ice, every word carrying a chill.
Lu Zhaoming felt a chill run down his spine, knowing that this hurdle would be difficult to overcome.
He took a deep breath, looked firmly at Su Li and Bai Yu in the cell, and whispered a promise: "I will give you an explanation, for everything."
"Heh, confess? How much is your confession worth?" Bai Yu leaned against the corner of the wall, his face bruised and swollen, his tone full of disappointment.
Just as Lu Zhaoming was about to explain, the lights in the detention cell went out with a "snap"!
The entire space was instantly plunged into complete darkness.
A faint smell of blood filled the air, along with a barely perceptible... wolfish odor?
"What happened?" Su Li's voice was tinged with panic.
Amid the chaos, a familiar sound of footsteps approached from afar, carrying a chilling rhythm.
Lu Zhaoming frowned, thinking to himself: Holy crap, this background music, is it Old Wolf?
Why is he here again?
It's like a persistent ghost!
In the darkness, Lu Zhaoming keenly noticed Su Li's subtle movement of clutching her clothes and Bai Yu's slightly rapid breathing.
"Don't be afraid, follow me," Lu Zhaoming said in a low voice, while activating the system to enhance his night vision.
"Hehehe... Lu Zhaoming, you have a path to heaven but you choose not to take it, you have no way to hell but you choose to barge in!" A sinister voice rang out in the darkness, filled with nauseating smugness.
"Old Wolf?" Lu Zhaoming squinted, trying to adjust to the darkness.
"That's right, it's me, your grandpa!" The old wolf's voice grew closer, carrying a mocking, cat-and-mouse tone. "Today, I'll show you what happens when you offend me!"
"Heh, you think you can take me on?" Lu Zhaoming sneered, a dangerous smile curving his lips.
In the darkness, the old wolf's figure slowly emerged, his face bearing a hideous scar.
"Lu Zhaoming, do you think you're so clever? Let me tell you, everything is under my control!" Old Wolf grinned maliciously, slowly raising a gleaming dagger. "The game begins..."
