Zi Xi's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable sense of pressure.
"The Yun family in City A is very wealthy..."
Li Jianguo's lips trembled as he mumbled incoherently.
How did you switch them?
"Second, twenty years ago in the hospital, we deliberately switched places..."
"Our son, Yifei, is doing well..."
Wang Cuihua unconsciously chimed in, a smug, mischievous smile even playing on her lips.
"Was throwing me into a juvenile detention center also part of the plan?"
"Of course, fools are in the way, they're gone!"
"The Yun family has high hopes for him, so Yifei is the only one they can pass on the mantle to..."
Li Jianguo admitted it intermittently.
All the guesses were confirmed, and the deliberately forgotten details came flooding back, almost overwhelming her.
"What is the Yun family's exact address? How did Yun Yifei and you become acquainted? What is his current status in the Yun family?"
She suppressed the urge to tear them to pieces immediately and continued to interrogate them.
However, Li Jianguo and Wang Cuihua had limited knowledge, only vaguely knowing that the Yun family was a top-tier wealthy family in City A, and that Yifei seemed to be highly valued, but they couldn't explain the specific details.
After the interrogation was over, Zi Xi pulled out the golden needle.
She looked at her adoptive parents, who lay on the ground like two puddles of mud, with a cold gaze.
Killing them is too cheap.
Don't they yearn for the life of the elite? Don't they think that she, this fool, deserves to be sacrificed?
Then she'll let them taste the bitterness of falling into the mud, being trampled on, unable to live, unable to die.
Zi Xi began to efficiently ransack the house.
They found all the cash they could find, the slightly valuable jewelry, and even the few bankbooks that Li Jianguo had hidden very privately.
This is the interest they owe her.
Then, like dragging livestock, she pulled the two unconscious people out of the house, threw them onto the old, dilapidated cart used for hauling goods at the door, and tied them tightly with rough hemp rope.
The night was deep, and the village was completely silent.
Zi Xi pulled the cart, her figure disappearing into the deep darkness, heading in the direction she remembered coming from.
The mountain path was rugged, but it wasn't too difficult for her now that she possessed cultivation.
The cart creaked and groaned as it bumped along, and the two people on it swayed like dead pigs.
A few days later, she arrived at the outskirts of that familiar, ominous forest.
But the once heavily guarded juvenile detention center is now a scorched wasteland.
Zi Xi pulled the cart and stopped at the edge of the ruins.
She looked at the area that should have been a juvenile detention center with a puzzled expression.
Nevertheless, Zi Xi still dragged Li Jianguo and Wang Cuihua off the cart and threw them onto a relatively empty pile of rubble.
Then she took out a small paper packet from her bosom, which contained a milder dose of the antidote for the Hundred Days of Sleepiness that she had deliberately kept.
She pried open their mouths and stuffed a little bit into each of their mouths.
The antidote is not enough to wake them up immediately, but it will gradually restore their consciousness over several days, although their bodies will remain numb and weak for a long time.
After doing all this, she stood up and looked down at her adoptive parents, who were curled up like two maggots.
"This is the place you have chosen for me."
"Now, I'm giving it back to you."
"Enjoy yourselves, and see how long you can survive here."
After Zi Xi finished speaking, she turned around and left without looking back.
This ruin is not entirely deserted.
Some lucky escapees or desperate criminals who come to take advantage of the situation will surely still lurk here.
Two powerless undead, perhaps with a little money on them, appeared here; their fate was predictable.
