Chapter 263: No Way Out



Early on the third day, Gao Yun was awakened by a knock on the door. She wanted to get out of bed and open the door, but she had no strength at all.

Liu Ming came out of the next room and asked impatiently, "Who is it? Why are you knocking so early in the morning?" He

opened the door and saw several staff members in base uniforms standing outside. The leader said to Liu Ming, who was obviously still asleep, "Hello, we are from the base housing management office. This house has been registered for check-out, and we are here to inspect it. Excuse me, who are you?"

Liu Ming was completely awake now. He shouted, "What? Checked out? When did it happen? Who checked out? Why don't I know?"

Several staff members took a step back, fearing that Liu Ming's saliva would spray on their faces. The leader still said politely, "Yes, the check-out procedure was handled two days ago. The person who handled it was Mr. Chen who registered for the rental at the time."

"Chen Anping, you bastard!" Liu Ming's eyes were red with anger. Now, he understood everything. It turned out that everything that happened in the past two days was planned by Chen Anping. His drunkenness and Gao Yun being raped by those men were all Chen Anping's doing. His purpose was obviously to get rid of them!

In fact, he had already guessed the truth of all this in his heart, but he was still trying to make excuses for Chen Anping and find various reasons for his disappearance. He thought fortunately that maybe the truth of the matter was not what he thought? Facts proved that all these possible ideas were just self-deception.

Everything was revealed. Liu Ming was so angry that he punched the door, and a big hole was immediately smashed in the door.

The staff members all stepped back again, and the leader said to the people behind them: "The door is damaged, so you have to compensate with a crystal core."

"Why should you compensate with a crystal core?" Liu Ming was dissatisfied.

"Sir, the base housing management office has a clear stipulation that any lessee has the obligation to keep the housing facilities intact. If there is any damage, the compensation shall be paid according to the base's compensation standards. If you refuse to compensate, the base has the right to retain the lessee's property and convert it into crystal cores. The lessee will no longer enjoy the housing benefits granted by the base to mutants and special abilities." The leader had a polite smile on his face.

Liu Ming was silent immediately.

Seeing that Liu Ming had finally calmed down, several staff members walked into the house.

They looked around the room and recorded the damaged items one by one. Liu Ming looked at the rising compensation record and clenched his fists. Chen Anping, you have been scheming against us and not telling us anything. You are even trying to trick me here. I, Liu Ming, will remember this grudge!

Finally, the staff member reported the registered quantity: "Mr. Liu, according to our acceptance results, you need to compensate the base for a total of 20 crystal cores. Please pay on the spot."

Even if Liu Ming was unwilling, he could only take out the crystal cores honestly. Fortunately, Chen Anping had not found the place where he usually hid the crystal cores, otherwise, he would be really helpless now.

The staff counted the number of crystal cores and confirmed that they were correct. The leader spoke again: "Mr. Liu, the lease of this house has expired. If you plan to renew the lease, please go to the rental center to handle the rental procedures. If you do not plan to renew the lease, please move out before noon today. If you are late, we will have professionals to help you move out. Okay, we will not disturb your rest. Please hurry up and handle the relevant procedures. Goodbye."

Several staff members left again.

Liu Ming could no longer bear it, and rushed into the room where Chen Anping had lived before and smashed it.

Gao Yun was lying on the bed, listening to the noise coming from next door, and she felt inexplicably happy. Although she was a little worried about how she would get through the next few days, could the worst days be more difficult than now? She was looking forward to Liu Ming not being able to drag her along like this anymore and dumping her.

Unfortunately, she was disappointed in the end. Liu Ming actually took her with him and moved to the shabby house they rented when they first came to the base.

Looking at this familiar shabby house, Gao Yun smiled bitterly. After wandering around for half a year, she had suffered so much and been treated so inhumanely, but she finally returned here. But she

was unwilling to accept it. Why did she have to suffer like this!

In the following days, after Liu Ming couldn't find Chen Anping, he began to accept missions resignedly. He didn't have many crystal cores to begin with, and after paying the compensation, the remaining crystal cores were only enough to pay for the cost of this house.

For a mutant like him who has not joined any organization, he must form a temporary team with other psychics or mutants to complete a mission. But when Liu Ming was on a mission before, he was always greedy and afraid of death, and he liked to take advantage of small things, so he had long been blacklisted by many people. Therefore, basically no one is willing to team up with him now.

Liu Ming wandered around the mission hall for two days, but he still couldn't get any missions. No one was willing to take him with him on those high-level missions. The missions that were willing to let him join were too low-level, and he could not get much from a mission. Liu Ming obviously looked down on them.

After returning to his residence, he saw Gao Yun still lying on the bed with a dying look, and he could not help but get angry. He grabbed Gao Yun and raised his hand to hit her.

Gao Yun looked at Liu Ming coldly: "Haha, what else can you do besides hitting me now? If you have the ability, beat me to death. Anyway, I don't want to live now."

Liu Ming looked at Gao Yun's appearance, and reluctantly put down his raised hand. To be honest, he really couldn't do anything to Gao Yun now. With Gao Yun's current appearance, he was really afraid that he would accidentally beat her to death. He was still counting on Gao Yun to help him coax Li Xue back. At worst, he could let Gao Yun use the same trick again and get another superpower.

Throwing Gao Yun back onto the bed, Liu Ming stormed out.

Gao Yun was dizzy from the fall. She looked at the closed door, unable to conceal the hatred in her eyes.

Liu Ming went to the gate of the villa area in Zone B again, waiting in an attempt to see Li Xue.

But Li Xue was not so easy to see. After squatting at the gate of the villa area for two days, he could no longer hold on. If he didn't want to earn some crystal cores, he would have to starve.

Helplessly, he could only go to the mission hall in a dejected manner and accept a low-level mission. That afternoon, he followed the team to go on a mission.

After listening to the news about Liu Ming and Gao Yun reported by Zhou Dafu, Li Xue smiled with satisfaction. Liu Ming, Gao Yun, do you like this gift? This is just the beginning, you must hold on!

I hope that the team members will shudder after hearing what Zhou Dafu said and looking at Li Xue's expression. The vengeful woman is really terrible.
