"Suitable my ass!" Du Xu cursed.
Seeing Du Xu's exasperated expression, I felt a little helpless.
I said helplessly, "Du Xu, this matter has nothing to do with you or your people. I am grateful that you are willing to help me, but things have come to this point. Su Mu of Jiangbei wants to use you as bait and cannon fodder. Once Biyuan finds out about this, you will definitely be in trouble."
"Do you think I have the heart to see your people get hurt? So Du Xu, listen to me, take your men and leave tonight, and don't get involved in this anymore. That way, my next actions and plans can begin smoothly, and Jiangbei's plan to use me as bait will definitely fail. At that time, the bait will become themselves."
I continued, "So, your staying won't do me any good. On the contrary, it will only hinder me and the whole plan. Once you leave, Su Mu's plan will have loopholes, and then Chu Yu and I can improvise and drag him into it. So, I'm begging you, let's just leave it at that, okay?"
When Du Xu saw what I had said, he didn't know how to refute it, so he asked, "Is everything you said true? According to your plan, if we stay at school, we'll only be a hindrance?"
I nodded and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Chu Yu."
Du Xu waved his hand, "I'm too lazy to ask questions. This girl doesn't like me, and I don't believe her. Fine, I believe what you say. If my people staying at school will only hinder the plan, then it's okay if I stay alone, right? I'll stay alone to help you, and my wife will leave. Is that alright?"
I shook my head and said, "No."
Du Xu was slightly annoyed. "This isn't enough! What will it take?"
I said, "Nothing will work."
Du Xu: "..."
I said, "So, you can start preparing now. You should leave Jiajiang tonight. If all goes well, the situation will be clear by tomorrow morning, and I will let you know then."
After I finished speaking, I didn't give Du Xu a chance to say anything more and turned to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't go! I haven't finished talking yet!" Du Xu shouted from behind.
I said, "Let's stop talking now, let's talk about it after everything is over."
Du Xu shouted, "What will you do if you die then!"
I said, "I won't die!"
"I mean, just in case!"
"roll!"
...
In the time that followed, Du Xu stopped bothering me. He seemed to sense my determination, so he stopped talking to me about wanting to stay.
Du Xu informed everyone about the situation, and they began packing their bags, preparing to leave the school. This was a good thing for them; at least they wouldn't get involved or suffer any losses.
Su Mu's ambition is too great, and he wants too much, so he's willing to stop at nothing to achieve his goals. I agree with his approach, but I disagree with him dragging unrelated people into it.
Especially Du Xu's team.
They had nothing to do with this matter to begin with, and I didn't want them involved in the first place. Now Su Mu wants to use them as bait, which I disagree with.
In the afternoon.
I don't know who told me, but Chu Yu found out that I rejected Du Xu and asked me, "Why did you reject him? Actually, keeping him around to help out would have been a pretty good option."
I said, "I know that keeping him here to help can solve a lot of problems, but I still don't want them to get too involved. If he stays and this matter succeeds, it's fine, but what if it fails? What will happen to him? What will happen to his people? I don't want to see a tragedy happen."
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow. "Okay. Oh, by the way, Lu Yun has already left the school and is probably gathering zombies outside right now."
I was taken aback. "She's already left?"
Chu Yu nodded: "Yes, his arrangements are complete. Now it's your turn. Are you really planning to stay at school as bait?"
I nodded and said, "Otherwise what? You're not going to keep it, are you?"
Chu Yu said, "I can stay, as long as I let Xiao Xiao deal with it, I can get away unscathed."
I gave a wry smile. "You really are talented, but let's forget about it. If you do that, Huang Yiyang will probably be worried sick. I'll prepare the bait myself. By the way, we don't have much time left. Have Wang Xintong come out and say goodbye to Huang Yiyang."
"Hey, hey, hey, I don't like hearing that! What do you mean by saying goodbye? It's not like we're parting ways for life or death! Even if we fail, I'll still be alive, okay?!"
"Okay, never mind. You can handle your own affairs."
"snort."
The following time passed quickly.
Before we knew it, it was six o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun had begun to set.
Du Xu and his group of over thirty people had already packed their luggage and would leave after dark.
Du Xu came to my dorm room on the fourth floor and said to me one last time, "I'm all ready downstairs and can leave at any time. I'll ask you one last time, are you sure you don't need my help?"
I didn't expect him to come looking for me at this time. I took out two cigarettes from my pocket, handed them to him, and said, "No need. I can handle this by myself. Besides, this is my own business. I followed them all the way from Hangzhou to Jiajiang, and now they've all disappeared. Since I'm still here, I'm going to put an end to this. I've been a coward for so long. If I had been more mature back then, maybe they would still be here in this school."
Du Xu sighed, and I lit a cigarette for him. After taking a puff, he sighed again and said, "I don't know what you've been through, and you've never told me. Anyway, after this is all over, tell me all about what happened back then."
I nodded, "No problem, I'll tell you more about it later."
At 7:30, it was completely dark, and all of Du Xu's people left the school.
Meanwhile, the two prisoners found an opportunity to escape and, taking advantage of the darkness, decisively left.
In the past two days, Chu Yu has used various methods to let these two prisoners know part of our plan. I think they will definitely tell the people in Biyuan about the plan after they go there. Whether Li Shujiang believes the plan or not is not important. In any case, Su Mu from Jiangbei will definitely lure the people in Biyuan out in the end.
When the time comes, as long as they leave Biyuan and head to the school, everything will proceed smoothly.
Even Su Mu couldn't stop it.
