Chapter 181 She's injured, she can't wait any longer.
Qin Suisui could tell at a glance that the man upstairs was the same man she had met in the grove during the day!
Sure enough! It wasn't my imagination. This person had tried to kill me in the woods during the day. If that truck hadn't suddenly appeared, I probably would have been in grave danger.
But she can't panic right now! It's just her and Zan Zan at home; she needs to calm down!
Suddenly, a "click" sound came from the window of the next room. Qin Suisui was startled. It was Zan Zan's room!
Ignoring the piercing gaze from downstairs, she turned and ran towards the door. Just as she stepped out of the master bedroom, she saw another person dressed in black, wearing a hat and a mask, on the stairs!
This person and the person outside are clearly in cahoots!
Qin Suisui paused instinctively. The other person probably hadn't expected her to come out so quickly, and also stopped in their tracks. The two of them stood facing each other across a staircase.
Qin Suisui's mind raced. Her pajamas, dagger, and the slingshot Paman had given her were all in her spatial storage. She couldn't conjure them out of thin air unless it was a matter of life and death. The only and most effective way was... She reached into her pocket, preparing to take out the sleeping pills.
Unexpectedly, the other person was faster than her; by the time she reached into her pocket, he had already pulled out a gun, *click-click*.
Two sharp clapes were aimed at her.
This... the strength is completely unequal! No matter how many sleeping pills she uses or how many life-saving items she has in her space, it's all for naught in front of a gun. She only needs to make a slight movement and the other party can shoot her dead.
The only option now is to hide in a safe space.
But if this person in front of her doesn't die, then the secret of her space will be exposed, and there will be endless trouble in the future. She might even be locked up and dissected for research. What's more, there's Zan Zan outside. What will happen to the child if she hides away?
"Hehe, so you've already developed the antidote, haven't you?" The person on the stairs suddenly made a strange sound. Qin Suisui looked up sharply and saw the other person waving a gun in his hand and looking at her with narrowed eyes.
Moonlight streamed through the master bedroom window and onto the stairs, allowing Qin Suisui to see the chilling malice in the other person's eyes.
After a long pause, Qin Suisui finally spoke in a trembling voice, "Who are you? I don't understand what you're saying."
But the other party didn't seem to care about her answer, and continued, "Actually, the poison in Chi Donglin and Pei Jiuyan has been cured, right?"
"This is all thanks to you, isn't it?"
Qin Suisui shook her head, about to say something, but the other person seemed particularly eager to express themselves and continued, "It must have been my mistake. How could the granddaughter of 'Qingnang Immortal' be just an ordinary person who only knows how to grow medicinal herbs?"
Qin Suisui was completely stunned. The other party actually knew her grandmother's name?
Indeed, my grandmother was a natural-born doctor, and her reputation spread from a young age. She was respectfully called "Qingnang Immortal". After all, with the development of history, many ancient medical techniques have been lost, but my grandmother's medical skills combined the strengths of hundreds of ancient medical techniques. She could not only bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded, but she could also be called a true miracle worker.
But later, the atmosphere gradually changed. In order to protect the family, Grandma had to restrain her sharpness. Therefore, when people later learned of Grandma's reputation, they only thought she was a gynecological expert. After all, nowadays, there are relatively few female gynecologists, whether in Western or Chinese medicine. If someone has slightly better medical skills, they can easily make a name for themselves. Everyone understands this principle. So, apart from the people that Grandma actually treated, many people thought that Grandma's reputation was undeserved.
So how did this person know Grandma's name?
Qin Suisui shook her head: "I don't understand what you mean."
Hearing her answer, the other party became somewhat angry: "You're still pretending! You deliberately went to the black market to buy medicinal herbs, secretly telling the shopkeeper to help you get sea scorpions, to divert our attention. In reality, you don't need poisonous scorpions at all to prepare the antidote, right!"
"While we were focusing all our energy on that black market boss, you secretly developed the antidote and cured Song Yunlai of the poison, didn't you!"
Hearing his words, Qin Suisui breathed a sigh of relief; she had her answer.
Yes, she had deliberately pretended to be stupid to provoke him, just to confirm whether he had the antidote, or whether he knew the formula for the antidote. But judging from his words, he clearly didn't know.
And the other party was indeed right; she deliberately went to the black market to buy poisonous scorpions to distract herself. In fact, she had already given Song Yunlai the antidote two days earlier when she went to deliver food.
They had been secretly monitoring her all this time, hoping to obtain the formula for the antidote.
In other words, some of them were also poisoned, and they kept getting new poisons, but they had no antidote and could not get rid of it.
Seeing the expression on Qin Suisui's face, the other party realized what was happening and raised his pistol, pointing it at her: "You bitch, you're trying to trick me into talking!"
Seeing that Qin Suisui's hand was still in her pocket, he shouted again, "Take your hand out! Don't try anything funny! I can kill you with one shot!"
Qin Suisui nodded: "Okay, don't get excited!"
She slowly took her hand out of her pocket and raised it above her head: "Don't get agitated, let's talk this out. Feel free to make any requests you may have."
The other party sneered: "Would you rather have my life?"
Qin Suisui shrugged indifferently: "If you're determined to kill me, there's nothing I can do. But if you kill me, you might never get the antidote you want in your lifetime."
"You bitch! You bitch! You really do have the antidote! You've already developed it, haven't you!"
Qin Suisui nodded: "Soon."
She slightly bent her finger and pointed to the dressing table in her room: "It's just one last step. If you hadn't bothered me, I might have already figured it out by now."
The other person looked in the direction she was pointing towards the dressing table in the master bedroom, and sure enough, there was a small lamp lit up there, and many bottles and jars of medicine powder on the table.
"You really... ah!"
While Qin Suisui was talking to the other party, Da Huang had already silently moved from the darkness to the small attic next to the stairs. The small attic had a small window facing the stairs. Taking advantage of the moment when he was distracted by looking at the dressing table, Da Huang leaped out of the window and bit the other party's hand holding the gun hard.
Despite its cute appearance, the yellow-throated marten has an exceptionally strong bite force, capable of crushing the spine of small mammals in one bite. Moreover, its most proficient move is the throat lock, which can snap the necks of monkeys and deer in one bite.
Having lived in the space for so long and been nourished by it, Dahuang's combat power far surpasses that of ordinary yellow-throated martens.
With one bite, the other person's wrist was almost severed, with only a little tendon and flesh connecting it.
The other person cried out in pain, and the pistol in his hand fell to the ground and rolled down the stairs to the first floor. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Da Huang went up and ripped off the mask from the other person's face with a paw.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qin Suisui quickly pulled out a potent sedative from her spatial storage and, after Dahuang dodged, threw it out. Before the man could even let out a cry of pain, he was knocked unconscious by the drug.
"What's wrong? Still not done?" A man's voice came from outside again, followed by two pitiful "woof woof" sounds from the little white ball, growing weaker and weaker. At the same time, footsteps came from the first floor. He's coming in! He's coming up!
Qin Suisui was startled and turned around to run into the children's room, where the child was still!
But before she could run two steps, a dagger was pressed against her lower back. Qin Suisui could feel the dagger slowly passing through her clothes and piercing into her flesh.
"Little girl, you've got some skills. Looks like you've raised quite a few useful pets!" A chilling voice coiled around Qin Suisui like a venomous snake. The footsteps downstairs didn't stop either; there were three people!
There were actually three of them!
What merit or ability did I possess to warrant the other side sending three people to kill me?
Big Yellow seemed to sense that she was in danger, and stood there baring its teeth, but dared not take a step forward.
Just then, the footsteps downstairs suddenly stopped, and then the sounds of fighting came from downstairs.
Qin Suisui and the person behind her both looked towards the stairwell, just in time to see Sun Ruwen holding the gun that had just fallen down, pointing it at the person behind Qin Suisui. He curled his lips into a chilling smile: "Let her go."
The person behind her was clearly not expected to appear suddenly. He paused for a moment, then plunged the dagger in his hand half a finger's length into Qin Suisui's lower back: "Even if you shoot, she won't survive. Why don't we have a contest and see who's faster?"
The sudden pain made Qin Suisui let out a soft groan, and beads of cold sweat instantly appeared on her forehead.
Seeing the dagger embedded in Qin Suisui's lower back, Sun Ruwen's eyes darkened, and his voice rose a few decibels: "I'm telling you to let her go!"
The other person seemed to have taken a liking to it. He put his large hand on Qin Suisui's shoulder, forcefully turned her body around, and used her as a shield in front of him: "I didn't realize you were so likable!"
His hand slowly moved down from Qin Suisui's shoulder: "This petite figure is truly captivating..."
Sun Ruwen's face grew even colder. He gritted his teeth, and his hand holding the pistol trembled slightly: "Get your filthy hands off me!" He wanted to fire.
The more excited he became, the more excited the man behind him became, and the dagger sank deeper into Qin Suisui's lower back.
Qin Suisui could no longer bear the pain and her whole body trembled.
Sun Ruwen panicked, raised his pistol, and fired straight at the man's arm.
The man was much taller than Qin Suisui, and Qin Suisui's body could not completely cover him; the arm that had been causing trouble on Qin Suisui was exposed.
Seemingly anticipating Sun Ruwen's actions, the man subtly moved his hand, and the bullet grazed Qin Suisui's arm. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sun Ruwen quickly rushed upstairs.
But the man was clearly not weak either. The next second, he pulled Qin Suisui back a few steps to the door of the small attic. The door of the small attic was very small. The man went in himself, but pulled Qin Suisui to block the door and used her as a human cushion.
After these few steps, blood had already flowed down Qin Suisui's clothes, and the dagger had penetrated even deeper into her body.
"I told you not to move! It seems you don't want her to live!" The man's voice was somewhat angry.
On the rooftop a few dozen meters away, Chi Donglin looked at Pei Jiuyan's injuries with a worried expression: "Ayan, the windows in that attic are small and dark, and it's very dark inside. You haven't touched a sniper rifle in so long, are you sure you're okay?"
Pei Jiuyan leaned down slightly, squinted one eye at the window of his attic, and said solemnly, "She's injured, we can't wait any longer."
