Chapter 23 Darkening! Xiaorou, I'm waiting for you at home.



That evening, Liu Kai lay on the soft sofa, with a comedy movie playing on the TV.

Petting the dog with my left hand and the cat with my right.

I had a wonderful day off, which ended with a big bunch of grilled lamb skewers with cumin.

Liu Kai almost became addicted to this feeling and couldn't extricate himself.

The next day, he finally got his wish and slept comfortably until 9 o'clock.

Clean the living area, which was like a pigsty, thoroughly.

After lunch, a "beep beep" sound suddenly came from the monitoring room.

This is the monitoring connection notification set by Liu Kai; the outside world has finally received a call!

The power company's AI is collecting electricity consumption data from various areas these days, so the power supply time is rather random.

The outside temperature is currently -58 degrees Celsius.

Liu Kai silently prayed that the security cameras at Da Hu and Er Hu's houses would work properly.

Whether it was his prayers that worked or the room temperature that was slightly higher, it is unclear.

In the end, the connection to the darkroom camera was successfully established without any major incidents.

However, the scene that came into view almost made Liu Kai's eyes pop out!

Inside the dark room, the two brothers, Da Hu and Er Hu, lay naked on the ground.

The ground was covered in a dark red stain, clearly hot blood that had long since congealed at low temperatures.

Dead?!

Lin Xiaorou still had bruises on her face from yesterday.

Wrapped in a thick men's plus-size down jacket, her graceful figure was completely covered.

His clothes were covered with red spots, which were marks of blood.

His left hand, clad in a cold-weather glove, unconsciously gripped a sharp knife that was also stained dark red.

It seems that Da Hu and Er Hu have indeed been dead for some time.

Because Lin Xiaorou's expression was calm at this moment, without the panic that one should have after killing someone!

At this moment, she was pacing back and forth in the darkroom, holding her phone in her right hand.

Liu Kai quickly realized that she was probably waiting for the base station to start up.

Sure enough, when the 3G signal appeared in the upper right corner of Liu Kai's phone, Lin Xiaorou also stopped pacing.

He decisively picked up his phone and dialed a number, his tone calm: "They're dead. I've sent you the photos! Okay, I'll wait for you here."

Liu Kai sensed that an interesting plot was about to unfold.

So, too lazy to even wash the dishes, he took out a bottle of beverage from the storage space and sat in front of the monitor, watching it with great interest.

A full 10 minutes passed.

Lin Xiaorou, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, glanced at her phone, then suddenly stood up and walked out of the darkroom.

Three minutes later, she returned to the darkroom.

Behind her followed a burly figure, also bundled up tightly and covered in snowflakes.

Upon seeing the corpses of Da Hu and Er Hu lying on the ground, the burly figure pulled back the hood of his coat.

His slightly sinister face was revealed.

When Liu Kai saw this face on the surveillance camera, his pupils suddenly contracted.

This face looks so familiar!

Butcher!

The desperate memories that flood your mind before you die create a chilling psychological shadow.

Even though Liu Kai was in the safe post-apocalyptic bunker, he still felt a deep-seated fear.

Trying to control himself, Liu Kaiqiang took two deep breaths to suppress his unease.

He continued to stare at the monitor with a gloomy expression.

After confirming that Da Hu and Er Hu were dead, Liang Fuhe suddenly let out a neurotic "hehehe" laugh.

The sound grew louder and louder until it became almost manic.

The coldness revealed in the laughter did not frighten Lin Xiaorou; in fact, it even showed a hint of admiration in her expression.

He stretched out his right foot and stepped directly on Erhu's unseeing face.

"You stupid idiot, weren't you so cocky? How come you're dead now? Hahahaha!"

"Your little brother's life is worthless. I took his heart out to save the boss. He should feel honored!"

"Even you should feel honored, heh, too bad..."

"It's a pity you shouldn't have reported me, causing my expulsion, and even laid a hand on my dad. Today, you two worthless lives will pay for my dad's life. That's letting you two dogs off easy!"

"Pooh!"

Liang Fuhe spat a mouthful of phlegm onto Erhu's corpse face, and only then did he stop his neurotic smile.

Then he took out a black, sealed plastic box from his pocket and looked at Lin Xiaorou expressionlessly.

"Put the knife down. I won't go back on my word in a fair trade. This thing is yours."

"Clang!"

The sharp knife fell to the ground, and Lin Xiaorou looked at Liang Fuhe with anticipation in her eyes as he opened the black box.

Inside was a metal syringe and a bottle of unknown medicine.

"Quick, give me the injection!"

Lin Xiaorou's eyes lit up with excitement, and she seemed impatient.

"I have to remind you again that this product has only gone through Phase II clinical trials and has not yet gone through Phase III trials, so I cannot guarantee 100% effectiveness."

"Don't hesitate, this is my last hope, come on."

Lin Xiaorou spoke firmly, pulling open her clothes to reveal her fair right arm.

Without saying much, Liang Fuhe decisively assembled the medicine and syringe together and injected it into Lin Xiaorou's arm.

Only after seeing this did Liu Kai finally understand everything.

Lin Xiaorou's original intention was to raise money for AIDS treatment.

While current technology can cure AIDS, it requires a long-term treatment course and incurs high costs.

Lin Xiaorou must have gotten enough money from Da Hu and Er Hu.

But it was freezing cold outside, and the hospital had already shut down, so there was nowhere to use the money.

Then, inexplicably, she got together with Liang Fuhe.

Liang Fuhe asked her to kill Da Hu and Er Hu, and the reward was a mysterious potion.

It appears that the mysterious drug is a powerful treatment for AIDS, but it has not yet been officially launched on the market.
