Chapter 595: The Bomb Buried



There is still no need to register for entry at the gate of the F City base. The last time Su Jin and Wei Junhao came in together, the gatekeeper gave each of them a palm-sized note with a stamp. Fortunately, Su Jin put it into the space at that time, otherwise he would have to hand in the mutation crystal core again to enter the city this time.

Lu Hao noticed that the three crystal cores that were the entrance fee last time had now become five.

Some newcomers to the base complained as they took out crystal cores. Although five level three mutant crystal cores were not a lot, compared with the entrance fees of other bases, it was still quite expensive.

The house provided by the base last time was definitely not habitable, so they had to rent a new house. Su Jin even rented one for a month.

Although they could live in the small Western-style building in Zhenwu Gate with their family, they had not explained this to Lian Jiyue before, and of course they did not intend to explain it.

Moreover, because of her pregnancy, Su Jin did not dare to take the face-changing pill in the space anymore. After all, no one could tell whether the pill would have any side effects on the child. So to be on the safe side, she would at least stay in the F City base for a while as Su Jin.

"Rest here for a while, and leave the things over there to us."

After settling down, Lu Hao stroked Su Jin's belly in the room and said.

"I know. At least I'm going to get some supplies."

Su Jin pressed down the big hand. Even if it was not appropriate for her to show up in public, she could still use her gold to hide herself.

"Well, as long as I don't get too tired."

Lu Hao remembered the knowledge about pregnant women that Wen Xiaoling had taught him. If there was nothing wrong with the pregnant woman's body, it would be beneficial to walk around regularly.

So the two of them rested in the rented suite for a while before saying goodbye to Qiqi and Lian Jiyue and leaving.

The place they rented was very close to the Zhenwu Sect's sphere of influence. It was for this reason that Lu Hao chose this apartment. Although the yard was relatively small, it was more than enough to accommodate several of them.

Before they reached the place where they had met Wu Xingye, they saw a long line of people, and the line became even more crowded as they walked further.

Su Jin finally understood why the family had no time to enter the space. The line was even longer than the one they had seen in City D. People were sleeping on the roadside, playing cards, chess and chatting everywhere.

Lu Hao was always protecting Su Jin, fearing that she would be bumped into by someone. She couldn't walk to the front at all and had to queue up.

Su Jin pulled Lu Hao over and walked to another path: "Let's go in through the window."

"The windows on the back wall?"

Lu Hao thought it was okay, but he believed that the gold must be taken out, otherwise it would be troublesome if someone saw it and thought it was a thief.

The back wall of the small Western-style building was surrounded by overgrown weeds. There was a row of cement platforms at the corner of the wall, but the withered weeds had also covered the cement platforms.

The two of them were holding Tuhao Jin at the same time. Su Jin was just about to stimulate the growth of the vines when he found that Lu Hao was standing next to him motionless.

"What's the matter?"

Su Jin asked in a low voice, "This guy seems to have discovered something?"

"Xiao Jin, please stand further away, behind the building."

Lu Hao's tone was serious, as if he had encountered something serious.

"Why?"

Su Jin looked in the direction Lu Hao was staring at, and it was just a field of weeds.

"I suspect someone planted a bomb here, but I'm not sure."

Lu Hao looked around the area under his feet again. Fortunately, there was no danger on the concrete platform, but he was very familiar with the two fuses of different colors exposed under the weeds.

"The target is Lin Xiuyuan and the others?"

Su Jin's expression turned cold instantly. Burying a bomb on the back wall? If they hadn't happened to come here today, wouldn't the whole family be in danger?

"Don't worry, I will dismantle this. Stand back. If anything goes wrong, I will go in right away."

Lu Hao comforted her, and the "enter" he mentioned was naturally referring to the space, and his purpose was to reassure Su Jin. Su Jin's voice was trembling slightly when he spoke just now, and it was unclear whether he was scared or angry.

"Okay, be careful."

Su Jin nodded and took out the tools and gloves that Lu Hao would use from the space, then stood behind the corner of the wall in the distance with the gold in her arms.

Chirp~

Tuhao Jin seemed to sense the hostess's uneasiness, and he shouted while patting Su Jin's hands with his little hands.

"Thank you, Tuhao Jin"

Su Jin rubbed the golden-haired boy's furry head, then looked at Lu Hao on the other side.

Lu Hao had already carefully carried out a large wooden box from the pile of weeds. Although Su Jin had never seen that wooden box before, it looked like there was undoubtedly a bomb inside.

In just five minutes, Lu Hao stood up, took off his gloves, and made an OK gesture to Su Jin who was not far away.

"It's quite heavy, but I've completely dismantled it. However, leaving the contents here is still quite dangerous."

Lu Hao pointed at the wooden box with the lid opened and said.

"Can the stuff inside still explode?"

Su Jin asked.

"Yes, a fire is enough, but you can put it away first, it may be useful later."

Lu Hao said.

"You want to..."

"Tit for a tooth"

Lu Hao's expression was also quite angry. The dose of this bomb was probably enough to raze the small western-style building to the ground. The person who did this really didn't intend to leave any room for maneuver.

Su Jin nodded, took out a box from the space, then used vines to put the dismantled bomb into it and put it behind the stream in the space.

No one would accidentally bump into it there, and it was far enough away from Lu's house. Such dangerous things must be kept away from family members.

The two did not waste any more time here, as it would be bad if someone came over. But before leaving, Lu Hao found a big stone and put it in the wooden box. He also left the two cut fuses outside as they were before, and then covered them with dry grass.

A vine grown by Su Jin grew taller and taller, and lifted the two people standing on it steadily to a small balcony on the second floor, and then was collected by Su Jin.

It's a pity that the balcony door was locked and had to be opened by pushing the handle from the inside.

"Let's go in first. They might go in to eat and rest later. Then we can ask them to help us open it."

Lu Hao looked at the time and said, it’s almost noon now, and the family will go into the space to eat.

"good"

Su Jin didn't want to destroy the door in a high-profile manner. Besides, she was in a very complicated mood at the moment and wanted to find out who had planted the bomb immediately.

It is unlikely that Wu Xingye and others from the Zhenwu Sect were here. After all, they had no reason to do so, and the family had only been here for a few days and had not made any friends. So it seemed that the most suspicious person in this matter was the base commander Liu Jianyuan.

Su Jin analyzed with Lu Hao in the space.
