After two agonizing days, Pei Nansheng couldn't wait any longer. He didn't want his mother to stay in that kind of environment any longer.
Zuo Ling was taken aback: "You... your injuries haven't healed yet, let's wait a couple more days."
“No, right now.” Pei Nansheng insisted.
Zuo Ling no longer objected, wanting to go later, but only to wait until her brother's health had improved further.
She tried to imagine that if that woman was locked up there, she wouldn't want to waste a single minute.
The two brazenly barged into the secret base, only to be surprised to find it deserted; the expected tense standby did not materialize.
The base was quiet, with only the sound of the wind rustling through the sand.
The brother and sister were on high alert, prepared for a fierce battle, but instead they were met with an eerie silence.
Looking around, the cave was pitch black, with a damp smell, and the traces of grenades and RPGs were clearly visible.
Zuo Ling's first reaction was that there was explosives buried in the cave, enough to destroy the world, and that Elder Ding was going to bury her and her brother alive.
The dog was released, a retractable leash was attached, and a shot was fired at random, letting the dog smell the gunpowder. The dog was very smart and immediately understood Zuo Ling's intention, excitedly leaping forward.
The brother and sister walked back to back, cautiously moving forward. Their heartbeats were exceptionally clear in the silence, and their breathing became short and rapid. Every step was filled with uncertainty and danger.
After passing through an open area, there was a narrow passageway ahead, with closed metal doors on both sides.
I kicked open the door, and a pungent smell of medicine hit me. Unidentified high-tech instruments gleamed coldly, telling tales of the past.
Several rooms were opened in succession, most of which were laboratories, with a small portion filled with miscellaneous items.
In two of the rooms, several men and women lay with various tubes and electrodes inserted into their bodies. When they saw someone break in, especially when they saw the brother and sister's clothes, their numb eyes instantly lit up.
He tried to lift his head, opened his mouth and made a series of "uh-uh" sounds, as if he wanted to say something.
Fearing it might be a trap, Zuo Ling cautiously ripped the tubes off one of the men's bodies. Pei Nansheng kept watch with a gun, ready to fire at the first sign of trouble.
The man struggled to get up, but was firmly locked to the bed by the wrist cuffs and could not move. He struggled and his sobs became more urgent.
"He said...kill him, please, kill him."
A weak voice came from the side.
Zuo Ling looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the speaker was younger and had better blood and energy than the previous person, which was why he was able to speak with difficulty.
"Kill him? Are you sure that's what he meant?"
Zuo Ling remained vigilant in the slightest.
The man's lips twitched slightly, as if he were trying his best to force a smile, but it looked particularly strange and distorted: "No... I don't believe you, look at him."
Zuo Ling turned her gaze back to the man who had just been struggling violently. Hearing the man's words, he suddenly fell silent, his eyes revealing a strange expectation... Was he hoping that she would end his life?!
The scene was absolutely bizarre!
Is it a trap? Or will firing the gun trigger some kind of mechanism?
Doubts welled up in her mind. Zuo Ling pressed the gun forward, against the man's temple, and said calmly, "Are you sure?"
The man's eyes were calm, his face twitched slightly a few times, and he slowly closed his eyes.
Hmph! Whether it's true or false, we'll find out by trying.
Did they really think she was a soft-hearted person? Ha! Thinking of this, Zuo Ling pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang! A gunshot rang out suddenly. Zuo Ling deliberately adjusted the angle of the shot, and the bullet flew out at an angle, splattering scarlet blood everywhere.
The two beds were very close together, and blood and warm, sticky brain matter splattered all over the speaker's face.
