Chapter 49 Receiving the Lunchbox



Seeing that Kaka had already quietly taken control of the dagger he had somehow acquired, Ji Lin'an said, "Let's go in."

Upon hearing Ji Lin'an's instructions, Wu Feng quickly drove the car into the service area. We rushed out of the car and headed to the restroom. When we arrived, it was Xi Lang lying on the ground, while Xiao K and Kaka were standing unharmed to the side. We were all a bit confused. Wu Feng asked first, "Kaka, what happened?"

Kaka still looked pitiful: "Brother Xilang suddenly... I don't know what happened, he rushed in while Sister K and I were in the bathroom, and tried to hypnotize us. When we dodged his hypnosis, he pulled out a knife and tried to kill us. Luckily, Sister K... otherwise... otherwise we would have..."

After saying that, Kaka lowered his head and ran to Qianliyan, snuggling up to him. Qianliyan visibly tried to back away, so I quickly and quietly reached out to support him, preventing him from retreating. Qianliyan reacted and gently stroked Kaka's head. We all turned to look at Xiao K, who was clearly still reeling from the earlier commotion. Seeing us all looking at her, Xiao K said with a slightly flustered look, "Yes, Xilang suddenly went crazy and scared us to death."

Ji Lin'an and I didn't say anything. I comforted Xiao K and Kaka for a few moments. Wu Feng knelt down in front of Xi Lang, looking at Xi Lang's unclosed eyes. He seemed unable to believe that Xi Lang was dead. Wu Feng checked Xi Lang's breath and confirmed that Xi Lang had stopped breathing. His expression was complicated. He reached out and closed Xi Lang's eyes, stood up and looked at us. Ji Lin'an asked, "Xiao K, what about your followers?"

K shook his head somewhat blankly: "I don't know. It all happened so suddenly. I didn't even have time to care about their lives."

Ji Lin'an turned and left the women's restroom, entering the men's restroom. We all followed him towards the men's restroom. I paused for a moment, and as everyone was about to enter the men's restroom, I squatted down and quickly checked Xi Lang's wounds. I took out my phone and snapped two photos, then jogged after everyone into the men's restroom. At this moment, the driver and his assistant were all lying on the ground, each with bloody wounds on their chests. I walked up to them, squatted down, and checked their breathing. I looked up at everyone and shook my head: "They're all dead."

I stood next to Ji Lin'an and looked up at Kaka and Xiao K. Everyone was at a loss. Kaka turned her eyes and saw me looking at her. She lowered her eyes and whispered, "Brother Nan, let's go. I feel a little unwell."

Qianliyan turned to look at Ji Lin'an, who took the first step. We all returned to the car, and Ji Lin'an suggested we go to G City first. Wufeng and I got into the car. Ji Lin'an looked at Qianliyan, who was still nestled in Kaka's arms, with some difficulty. After we all got into the car, Qianliyan looked down at Kaka and said, "Can you still drive?"

Kaka shook his head: "I feel a little dizzy and don't want to drive."

Qianliyan looked at Ji Lin'an with some regret in his eyes. I guessed that Qianliyan must be regretting his insistence on picking up Kaka back then. But we didn't have a better way, so we could only move the luggage from Xiao K's car to Qianliyan's car and watch helplessly as Qianliyan, Xiao K, and Kaka got into the car.

After getting in the car, Qianliyan didn't start it for a long time. Seeing this, Wufeng drove his car next to Qianliyan's car and asked, "Why aren't you moving?"

"Kaka said she's feeling a bit unwell," Qianliyan said with a hint of helplessness.

We didn't respond. Kaka said, "I'm fine. Brother Nan, just drive slowly. Brother Wufeng, you guys go ahead."

Wufeng had no choice but to step on the gas and continue driving. He couldn't help but say, "What we just saw was Kaka trying to kill Little K, so how come it was Xilang who died in the end?"

Ji Lin'an frowned and remained silent. I said, "Kaka said that Xiao K killed Xilang, but I just checked, and the wounds on Xilang and the others in the men's restroom are the same size. It seems that they were all caused by the knife in Xilang's hand. But the knife in Xiao K's hand is the one that Kaka used to kill Xiao K, which we saw Kaka control in our clairvoyance skill. That knife is obviously half the size of Xilang's knife. Xilang couldn't have stabbed himself, could he?"

Ji Lin'an then spoke up: "Perhaps Xilang died from the knife in his hand, but the person who killed him was not himself or Xiao K, but Kaka. Have you forgotten what Kaka's skill is? Manipulation. She had plenty of time to manipulate the knife in Xilang's hand to stab Xilang, and then put the knife back into Xilang's hand after Xilang fell to the ground."

I nodded: "That explains it clearly, but why did Kaka kill Xilang but leave Xiao K alive? She could very well have killed Xiao K herself."

The three of us fell into deep thought, none of us able to guess why Kaka had done this. Wufeng sighed, "So what do we do now? Should we continue to follow them to G City?"

Ji Lin'an closed his eyes and massaged his temples: "It seems we have no choice but to follow them. Qianliyan is still in their car. Kaka pretended to be unwell and asked Qianliyan to drive slower. Maybe he was afraid that we would run away if we were behind him, so he chose to follow us to ensure our whereabouts."

I slumped back in the back seat, feeling deflated. "Well, then we'll just have to go to G City. Fine, let's go. I'm curious to see what kind of den of dragons and tigers G City really is."

The car continued driving for several hours, stopping once during which Wufeng let Ji Lin'an drive. Before long, we arrived in G City. At the G City toll station, we could see what appeared to be a transparent, reflective film inside the station from afar. Ji Lin'an slowed down and approached, but when the front of the car hit the film, it suddenly stopped. Ji Lin'an frowned and said, "There's a protective shield; the car can't get through."

No sooner had we finished speaking than we heard Qianliyan's car honk its horn several times. The three of us got out of the car, and Qianliyan and her group also got out. Little K held her phone and said, looking down, "Wait a minute, we can't go in right now. We have to wait for someone from G City to pick us up. They should be here soon."

I asked curiously, "Is this membrane so powerful? We can't even get in ourselves?"

Little K looked up and laughed, "That's right, this is a protective shield set up by Mayor Jiang. No one can get in unless someone pulls us in from the inside."

I looked at the protective shield: "So this protective shield is only for exiting, not for entering?"

K nodded: "Yes, you could say that, which is why we dare to say that G is absolutely safe, perfectly keeping the zombies out of the protective shield."

About ten minutes later, a van pulled up to the edge of the protective enclosure. A man got out and waved to us. Little K led us to the edge of the enclosure, and the man pulled us inside one by one. I turned around and asked, "What about our luggage?"

The man said, "Don't worry, someone will come to install it later, and it will be delivered to your room after you check in."
