Qin Shou was so confident that he could kill Zhang Feng (Lu Yan) because he had a backup plan when he saved him. Qin Shou not only had wind-type abilities, but also rare poison-type abilities. He could easily poison people's food without being detected. For the past few days, he had been putting a neurotoxin in Zhang Feng's (Lu Yan) food. If he wanted to, he could kill him immediately.
Just as Qin Shou finished dealing with the last batch of goods and returned to the fifth floor, there was originally a bar on the fifth floor. After they arrived, they drove out the original owner and occupied this upscale bar, turning more than a dozen private rooms into their base. During this time, it was turned into a chaotic mess, with no place to even step.
They revel here every night. Tonight, Qin Shou generously brought out more than ten bottles of liquor and bought more than ten women. The fake Chenxi has now expanded to a group of more than sixty people. Under the influence of alcohol, the men became even more unrestrained.
Before he even went upstairs, he could hear loud, energetic music, smell alcohol, and even cigarettes.
Qin Shou immediately perked up.
At this moment, one of the sycophants in the group saw Qin Shou and quickly ran over to explain. It turned out that during the time Qin Shou was away, a young man had appeared out of nowhere and pulled out ten packs of cigarettes as a "gift" to join them. They'd seen quite a few people defecting to them in the past few days, all handing in some kind of "gift," but he was the first to offer such a "generous gift" as ten packs of cigarettes.
After explaining, the sycophant pointed to a thin young man next to the bar and gave a strange laugh.
"Boss, that kid's name is Yan Jiu. He was probably a rich second-generation before the apocalypse. He said he was following Su Feng from the R base before, and he probably has a lot of good stuff hidden away. Although he's a second-tier fire elementalist, he's a bit silly and this is his first time leaving the base."
Qin Shou's interest was immediately piqued. Everyone knew that there were many rich second-generation kids like Su Feng in the R base. Although it had been five years since the apocalypse, they lived comfortably inside and were unaware of the dangers of the world. Most of them would be slaughtered when they came out.
Qin Shou watched as Yan Jiu acted like a spoiled young master, indulging in food and drink while clinging to a woman. Although he was decent-looking, he was clearly a pretty boy who couldn't read the room. Even though Zhang Feng (Lu Yan) was already annoyed to the point of turning his face black, Yan Jiu was still provoking him to drink.
Qin Shou had seen plenty of people like this. He sneered, "Get him drunk and see if you can find out where the good stuff is. Then cripple him and see if you can sell him for some more money. Our team doesn't keep idiots like this."
The loud music from the bar completely drowned out the voices of the two people talking at the entrance, but they didn't notice the slight glance from the side of their conversation partner, who was sitting with one woman on each side.
At this moment, Xia Yixin completely played the role of a "foolish and rich" idiot.
Just as she had expected, Qin Shou's men quickly took the bait. "He" soon blended in with them, and "he" deliberately greeted everyone and offered them cigarettes, which quickly made "him" the most popular person in the bar.
There was only one person in the corner of the bar, almost completely alone.
The unshaven man seemed completely oblivious to the commotion around him, continuing to drink by himself.
Upon noticing that "he" was paying attention to Lu Yan, a tall man next to him put his arm around Lu Yan's shoulder and said, "Young Master Yan, don't mess with that guy. He's a fifth-level ability user. Even the boss gives him some leeway."
Xia Yixin clicked her tongue in feigned indifference and downed a glass of wine. "Who said I'm paying attention to him? I'm looking at that woman."
The strong naturally attract people.
A beautiful woman is trying to get close to Lu Yan. They are all willing to sell their bodies to make a living or to find a long-term meal ticket.
"Haha, this situation has been quite common these past few days. Women, before and after the apocalypse, are all the same, very materialistic. But our Captain Zhang is quite picky. Several women have come over over the past few days, but he only brought one into the house."
Xia Yixin clenched her fists inwardly.
As the woman pressed closer to him, and the man didn't refuse, she finally couldn't resist and squeezed through the crowd to get to him.
He pulled the woman with the large breasts and slim waist into his arms.
"I'm so sorry, Captain Zhang, but I've also taken a liking to this woman. You don't mind if I take her with me, do you?"
Although the people around seemed to be still enjoying the music, most of their attention was focused on the bar. How dare this newcomer provoke Zhang Feng (Lu Yan)? This is too exciting!
Lu Yan actually felt something was wrong when "he" appeared.
From the beginning, he felt that "his" eyes were strange and his whole body was odd. His current appearance was completely different from his first impression of him, which made Lu Yan suspicious of his motives.
Now that "he" has suddenly interfered in the woman's affairs, Lu Yan narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Let go."
Lu Yan's words were unexpected by Xia Yixin.
The people around them were all watching the show with amusement, until Qin Shou suddenly appeared out of nowhere to smooth things over, saying, "She's just a woman, everyone, let's not hurt each other's feelings. Come on, let's drink!"
Qin Shou didn't want Lu Yan's hot temper to hurt Yan Jiu, otherwise he wouldn't be able to ask him where the other things he brought out were hidden.
Lu Yan didn't want to embarrass Qin Shou, so he drank a glass of wine and left. The atmosphere actually improved after he left.
But Lu Yan didn't go far after leaving. Apart from the newcomer, Lu Yan didn't actually trust Qin Shou. He just didn't expose the business Qin Shou was doing behind his back, since it didn't matter to him anyway.
The only thing that held him back was that they were the first group of people he had seen after waking up, and the word "dawn" that they spoke reminded him of something.
He followed them hoping to find some of his memories, including who he was, where he came from, and what he had experienced. He vaguely felt that he had forgotten something very important.
As for Yan Jiu, he wanted to see what he was up to.
In the bar.
The diesel generator brought loud music, lights, and the stimulation of alcohol, making people temporarily forget the apocalypse and feel as if they had returned to the pre-apocalyptic world.
As if by prior arrangement, the men and women toasted him with glass after glass of wine.
Xia Yixin accepted all comers, but she had taken an antidote pill that would keep her from getting drunk for twelve hours. The alcohol would be directly consumed by the pill, and her blushing was due to the effect of her internal energy. After Xia Yixin spread her mental energy, she also caught sight of Lu Yan nearby.
He hadn't gone too far, but she wasn't afraid he'd notice anything amiss; she was afraid he wouldn't see anything wrong.
