If Liu Shile were really just a girl who knew a little bit of martial arts, those traps alone would have been enough to overwhelm her, let alone save people.
In the end, she herself will probably fall here.
My mom and her friends probably had this in mind.
Liu Shile had long since given up hope on her adoptive mother, but now that she had learned the truth, she was still very annoyed.
Although I've seen many things far more cruel than this in the apocalypse, times and environments are different, so people's actions are naturally different as well.
Regardless of whether she is her stepmother's biological son or not, the stepmother has personally used her own son to set up this scheme!
How ruthless must one be to do this?
There was one thing she didn't understand.
Over the years, her adoptive mother has never done anything to her, so why is she doing this now?
Is it time? Or is there some other reason?
Judging from Lao Wu's flustered appearance, it should be the latter.
Something must have happened that she didn't know about, prompting her adoptive mother to make up her mind to take action.
Moreover, the other party even predicted that she would come back and would rely on their strength to come and rescue her!
So, this must have been designed by someone who understands themselves, right?
Of course, there could be other reasons, but without concrete evidence, all speculation is just speculation.
Old Wu's face twitched. This girl was too cold-blooded! Not only did she remain so calm after knowing so much, but she could also find loopholes in his words. Was her heart made of iron?!
But no matter how much he shook, it was no use; they wouldn't let him pretend to be confused.
It was obvious that she wouldn't be satisfied if he didn't give a good answer.
Faced with the threat of death, he ultimately gave in.
“Someone paid us to hire you. As for your mother’s situation, I don’t know anything about it.”
He genuinely didn't know, because he simply sent someone over to make the arrangements, and that was it.
A glint flashed in Liu Shile's eyes, but it was so quick that no one noticed.
"Employer information?" This time, Liu Shile really didn't doubt it.
Old Wu was a little worried at this point, as he didn't know much about his employer's situation.
But looking at the living devil staring at him calmly, he finally couldn't hold on.
"We don't know the specifics either; we're just doing our jobs for the money."
At this point, he quickly added, "But as far as I know, the employer should be from City C."
Liu Shile was not satisfied with the limited amount of practical information he had provided.
After all, no other evidence was found in her mental abilities.
"What evidence do you have to prove that what you're saying is true? Also, how did the other party place the order?"
She suspected that there was an even bigger network behind these people.
Therefore, this is not something she can handle alone.
Fortunately, she never intended to handle this alone, so now she needs to find out who is plotting against her.
Actually, when Liu Shile heard the man say that the employer might be from City C, she already had a pretty good idea of what was going on.
But whether it is true or not is still up for debate, so she needs evidence.
At this moment, Lao Wu could only be thankful that he had handled things reliably and hadn't left anything in one place.
So now they have become his trump card for survival.
The saying "a cunning rabbit has three burrows" is something these people must always remember.
However, he was not complacent. Faced with absolute strength, it was impossible for him to escape through trickery and schemes.
Old Wu was quite certain of this; putting aside everything else, the girl's speed alone was extraordinary.
He probably got caught as soon as he ran away.
He couldn't afford the consequences of being caught, so it was better for him to behave himself.
Thinking this, a fawning smile appeared on his face.
"That... I've put it in a safe place. If you'd like to let me go..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was so frightened by the girl's ambiguous smile that he swallowed back what he was about to say.
"Well, um, I can take you to get it, if you trust me."
He swallowed hard before speaking with difficulty.
Hmph, that's more like it. You actually think you can bargain with me? You wish!
Liu Shile decided to have this person lead the way to retrieve the items, but she couldn't neglect the matters here either.
So she said to the leader, "Go and tie them up."
Upon hearing this, Old Wu suddenly realized that this living devil wasn't as cruel as she had imagined. Should she...?
No, no, no, that won't work. She's too strong. Even if I find an opportunity, I might not be able to defeat her.
If you anger her, you might end up being thrown into the river to feed the fish.
However, he couldn't really justify tying up his own underlings, so he wasn't very willing.
After thinking for a moment, just as I was about to say that I still couldn't move my hand, I realized that his hand could move at some point!
Holy crap!
Old Wu was truly on the verge of tears, but he still had to keep working.
Otherwise, he didn't know what would happen, but he dared not gamble.
After confirming that he had tied the person up, Liu Shile simply picked up the man, who weighed over 100 pounds, and made him lead the way.
Old Wu's heart almost stopped when he was lifted up!
So this guy is actually a powerful living Yama?
The others were suspended in mid-air, listening to the wind whistling past their ears, and were glad that they hadn't taken any chances.
Forget it, I'd better behave myself and wait until this old lady leaves.
That's what he was thinking, but then he suddenly realized that the girl hadn't asked about her brother. Wasn't she there to rescue someone?
He was about to speak when he was suddenly forced to swallow a mouthful of air...
He only felt more at ease after he was firmly on the ground.
"Go get the things." Liu Shile didn't give him much time to recover and gave the order directly.
This time, Lao Wu really didn't dare to play any tricks and obediently went to get the things.
He didn't know that it was precisely because he was honest that Liu Shile spared his life.
Under the influence of her spiritual power, she could see everything clearly, including the money hidden underground.
After a while, Old Wu took out several letters and a stack of money.
He handed it to Liu Shile and said, "Miss, everything is here."
He wanted to beg them to forgive him, but after hesitating, he didn't dare.
Liu Shile spared his life, but had no intention of letting those who had done evil off the hook.
So, Lao Wu and his gang were taken away by the police.
Liu Shile easily found and handed over the evidence of their crimes.
Old Wu didn't see her hand over the evidence and still held onto a sliver of hope.
But after he was locked up, he was terrified when he saw the evidence. How did these things end up in their hands?
He was hiding so well, there should have been no way he could be found!
Indeed, if it weren't for Liu Shile, it might not have been so easy to obtain evidence of their crimes.
But who can blame them when Liu Shile is someone who has cheated?
Even if they didn't have any readily available evidence, she could still conjure up a whole bunch for them, okay?
