When Ruan Ning woke up from her sleep, she saw a person standing beside her bed.

In the darkness, she could only see a blurry tall figure. She couldn't make out the man's appearance or facial expression clearly and almost got scared.

Fortunately, she quickly recognized that the man was Gu Yichen through her senses, and she resisted the urge to draw her gun.

Because I knew he wouldn't wake me up in the middle of the night for no reason, just when I was about to ask him what happened, I heard some rustling coming from the door... It sounded like someone was whispering at the door.

Ruan Ning was surprised. How could someone be at their door at this time of night?

"There's someone outside, don't make any noise. Go hide behind the sofa first, I'll handle this." Gu Yicheng's voice was very low, perhaps because he was afraid of being heard by people outside, he still whispered in her ear to finish the sentence.

Ruan Ning, who was so close, could hear his breathing and the warm breath of the people around him.

In the darkness, Ruan Ning's fair earlobe slowly became tinged with a hint of red.

She nodded, and she was not ignorant at this time. She insisted on staying with him and quickly got out of bed. She didn't make any sound and hid in the corner of the sofa next to her.

This place happens to be the blind spot of the room, and there is no light, so even if someone outside the door walks in, they will not notice this place.

At the same time, two ordinary-looking men, one tall and one short, stood at the door of Ruan Ning and Gu Yicheng's room.

"Speak softly, don't wake anyone up." One of the tall men shouted in a low voice when he saw his companion accidentally drop the syringe they were planning to use this time.

Seeing how nervous he was, another shorter man said nonchalantly, "Let's not scare ourselves. How can anyone still be awake at this hour?"

It was around two in the morning, when people were sleeping soundly. And there were people guarding the hotel. These newcomers were separated into different rooms, and there shouldn't be anyone so vigilant as to stay up at night and keep someone on guard.

The tall guy also felt that what he said made sense, and his tense nerves relaxed. However, he thought of the work that Sister Sun had assigned to them before coming here, so he solemnly said, "Whether we are scaring ourselves or not, let's stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and complete the task that Sister Sun has assigned to us. If we delay, Sister Sun will not forgive us."

The two looked at the house number in front of them, lightened their steps, and slowly pushed open the door.

After entering the room and passing the hallway, I saw a vague human figure on each of the two beds placed in the middle of the room.

The two men exchanged glances, each holding a syringe in his hand. A thick rope was hung around their waists.

Other people have been in the other three rooms. Their only task is to knock down the people in this room.

Before they came, someone secretly came to investigate, because they knew that the number of people living in this room was the least, so the strength of those who were assigned here was not very high. But they had a secret weapon, the syringe they took out was filled with muscle relaxants, and it was guaranteed that even a superpower could be knocked down immediately after one injection, and he would be unable to muster any strength for several hours, and he would not be able to use any superpowers.

This kind of muscle relaxant is very difficult to obtain on the market, whether before or after the apocalypse. If Sister Sun hadn't seen that Captain Chen Ling had a high opinion of the team he brought from outside, and that they looked quite strong, and that there should be several people with special abilities in them, and that they had to ensure that they didn't make too much noise in the hotel and disturb the search team, Sister Sun would never have given them such a powerful thing to use on them.

After the muscle relaxants take effect, they will tie them up with ropes and gag them. No matter how strong the person is, it will be useless and they can only allow themselves to be pounded by them.

The two men moved separately, the tall one walked to the left bed, and the short one walked to the right bed.

The tall man aimed the syringe at the position where the person on the bed was, but his hand was still hanging in the air and was firmly grasped by a pair of hands that appeared out of nowhere.

Oh no! This guy is awake?!

The tall man realized this, a look of panic on his face, and he took a step back, hitting his calf on the edge of the bed. The momentary pain made him sober up a lot.

There is nothing to be afraid of when he wakes up. As long as he injects the muscle relaxant into this person's body, his goal will be achieved.

After figuring it out, he tightly grasped the needle and stabbed the person next to him in the arm.

Gu Yicheng sneered, twisted his hand hard, and kicked forward with his left foot. When the man dodged subconsciously, he turned his hand and stabbed the man's neck with the syringe. As for the contents inside, he also injected them into his body.

While the people next to him were fighting, the short man realized that there was no one on the bed on his side. His syringe was empty, and when he lifted the quilt, he saw only a pillow inside.

Seeing that the truth was revealed and the tall man fell into the trap again, the short man no longer cared about his companion who came with him. He turned around and started running towards the door.

Gu Yicheng threw the empty syringe on the ground, with a cold face and cold eyes, not even looking at the person who was paralyzed on the bed, nor was he afraid that the other person would run away like this. He walked a few steps slowly, took out a spring knife from the space, and threw it out with force. The blade just brushed the head of the person who was about to escape, and stabbed into the door panel only a few steps away from him.

The short man's whole body froze to the side. He hadn't recovered from the fear of the switchblade brushing past his head just now. His legs were weak and trembling. He wanted to escape from this place as soon as possible, but his feet wouldn't listen to him. It was as if they were glued to the spot and he couldn't move.

"Run, why don't you run anymore?" A deep and dangerous voice rang out in the room.

The person who threw the knife just now is now behind him.

"I, I surrender, don't kill me! Don't kill me!!" The short man raised his hands above his head, making a gesture of surrender. He was just an ordinary person without superpowers, and he was frightened. Before the fight even started, his momentum was already weak.

To show his sincerity, he gritted his teeth and injected himself with the syringe in his hand.

The tall man was so angry that he wanted to curse, but he was knocked unconscious by Gu Yicheng as soon as he opened his mouth.

Ruan Ning stood in the dark. After seeing that the dust had settled and the two men had lost their ability to fight and would no longer put up any resistance, he took out a flashlight from the space, turned it on, and trotted over to Gu Yichen's side.

"Brother, are you okay?" It was too dark in the room just now, and she couldn't see clearly whether he was injured.

Gu Yicheng's expression eased a lot: "I'm fine."

"These two people are living in this hotel. But why did they come to attack us in the middle of the night? And they used such a strong drug."

Ruan Ning just saw that after Gu Yicheng inserted the needle they brought into the man's body, the man immediately collapsed to the ground. The needle probably contained something like anesthetic or other drugs that could make a person lose their ability to move.

"Tell me! Who ordered you to do this?" These two people are so weak that they definitely can't do such a thing. There must be someone behind them ordering them.

"It's not me, it's not me. It's Sister Sun! Yes, it was Sister Sun who asked us to do this. She and Captain Chen have been at odds for a long time. This time he brought you back and wanted you to join the base, which would threaten her position. Sister Sun wanted you all to disappear so that you won't help Captain Chen gain power." The short man stuttered, and was sweating profusely in the cold weather.

Is it her? Ruan Ning suddenly remembered the arrogant woman at the hotel entrance this afternoon.

They clearly had no grudges against each other before, so why would they attack them for such a reason? And they even used a sneak attack in the middle of the night.

And according to this person, their original plan was to throw them all onto the zombie-filled road after knocking them down, and then let them watch themselves being eaten bit by bit by the zombies while they were conscious, and take their cars and the supplies in their backpacks for themselves.

If this is true, then the person who came up with this idea must be extremely vicious.

Ruan Ning's expression was not good. "Which floor does this Sister Sun you mentioned live on?"

I will not offend others if they do not offend me, but I will definitely offend them if they offend me. Although Ruan Ning does not like to fight violence with violence, he does not want to silently endure the anger from others. It was others who provoked them first.

"She, she's on the top floor, in the room on the right." At this point, there's nothing we can't say as long as we can stay alive.

The short guy was not originally a member of Sister Sun's staff. He was only attracted by the high return this time. The person originally assigned to do this suddenly felt unwell tonight, so he took over. After the task is completed, he will get an extra week of food. If he had known that this would be the result, he would not have come even if he was given a month's worth of food.

When Ruan Ning heard that Sister Sun lived on the top floor, she didn't feel surprised.

The top floor of this four-star hotel is the business suite, which is the only place that Chen Ling did not take them to when he took them to visit the hotel.

At that time, she thought that only the leader of their base lived on the top floor, but it turned out that this grandson also lived there.
