Her eyes were like sharp knives, keenly listening to the sounds outside.
Fortunately, it was during the holidays, and both children were staying with their great-grandparents in the compound.
Otherwise, she would have to take care of the child and wouldn't be able to use her skills.
Su Tian was the only person at home in the entire courtyard. She took an iron rod and a bag of darts, quietly left the room, and hid her body in the darkness.
Before long, more than a dozen figures jumped into Su Tian's courtyard.
Hidden in the shadows, Su Tian watched the dozen or so figures warily.
She took the darts out of the bag and fired them with a target in mind.
As soon as the muffled groan sounded, Su Tian immediately moved out as well.
Su Tian swung the iron rod, which struck them repeatedly, eliciting groans from their bodies.
Su Tian's movements with the stick were fast and accurate, and she struck them hard with all her might, routing them and quickly disrupting their encirclement.
They had been warned before their attack and were well-prepared for the strength of the man's wife.
But they really didn't expect that a woman could be so strong; it was beyond their imagination.
Seeing that half of his men had been lost, the leader no longer cared about revealing his identity and immediately drew the gun he carried at his waist.
Before he could even draw his gun and fire, Su Tian was faster. Before her index finger could even bend to pull the trigger, Su Tian had already smashed his head with an iron rod, sending him to meet the King of Hell.
The others also drew their weapons from their waists, hoping to subdue Su Tian with a single shot.
In the darkness, Su Tian's figure was ghostly, and they couldn't aim at her at all.
When they realized that Su Tian was standing motionless, they didn't even have a chance to make a move and all fell to the ground.
Su Tian dealt with more than a dozen people in twenty minutes, leaving two half-dead survivors.
Su Tian walked up to the two survivors and pointed the iron rod at them.
Although it was pitch black and they couldn't see their own hands in front of their faces, Su Tian's fierce expression was faintly revealed to them.
"Who are you? What are you doing barging into my yard?"
The two men turned their heads away, stubbornly remaining silent.
"Alright, then lie here until dawn. If you're still alive by dawn, consider yourselves lucky."
After Su Tian finished speaking, she took the rope and tied their hands behind their backs.
After washing my hands, I went back to my room to sleep.
She lay in bed, unsure whether it was because of Song Zhe or because of the new drug she had developed last month that these villains had been attracted here.
The next day, Su Tian woke up naturally, and it was already 10 a.m.
The first thing she did after getting up was to go to the yard to check on the two survivors.
These two are incredibly lucky; they're still alive and seem to be in better spirits than they were last night.
She went to the telephone and dialed the factory office.
Gu Bai was already in his office working early in the morning when he heard the phone ring, so he immediately picked up the receiver.
"Hello, Su's Pharmaceuticals." Gu Bai's steady voice reached Su Tian's ears.
After five years of experience, Gu Bai is now capable of handling things independently at the pharmaceutical factory.
He can handle the problems very well even without Su Tian being there at the factory.
Therefore, Su Tian handed the responsibility over to him without any burden, giving her plenty of time to research and develop some effective and inexpensive drugs.
Sometimes she would even be invited by superiors to treat the leaders' illnesses; they all treated Su Tian with great respect.
"Gu Bai, are you free? Come over to my place for a bit."
"Okay, sister, I'll be right there."
Gu Bai grabbed his car keys, drove his car, and immediately arrived at Su Tian's courtyard.
After getting out of the car, he rushed to the door and knocked on it forcefully.
"Sister, I've arrived. Are you there?"
Gu Bai was a little worried that something might have happened to Su Tian, as she rarely notified him to come to her house like this.
Su Tian came out of the living room after hearing the knock on the door.
"You've arrived."
"Um, sister, what happened?"
"Come in and we'll talk."
After Gu Bai came in, Su Tian closed the door behind him. He saw the dozen or so corpses lying on the ground and felt a little scared.
"Sister, are you alright? These people..."
Seeing Gu Bai's worried expression, Su Tian quickly comforted him, "I'm fine, it's them who are in trouble."
Could you help me check their clothes to see if there are any markings or other clues on them? I'll go into the living room and wait for you.
After Su Tian left, Gu Bai coldly and roughly tore open their clothes. That damned thug actually came to his sister's house, trying to hurt her.
Sure enough, after the clothes were torn open, there was a mark on the arm.
He quickly pulled open the left arms of the other people and saw that they all had the exact same mark.
Moreover, their arms appeared stiff; a dead person's arms wouldn't be as hard as stone.
Gu Bai walked in with a gloomy expression. His steps seemed heavy, each one carrying a deep worry.
When he stood in front of Su Tian, his once handsome face was now filled with a solemn expression.
"Sister, I've just checked them carefully. All these people have the same mark on their left arms. I think they're from the other side of the Little Days."
"It seems to be the power of some organization. When I fought with them last night..."
Judging from their physique and the strength they displayed, they must have been taking some kind of drug that enhances their fighting ability for a long time.
If they are from the other side of the world, they can indeed develop non-human drugs to achieve certain goals.
"Come on, there are still two prisoners tied up there. Let's go take a look and see if we can get anything out of them."
Su Tian walked out first, followed by Gu Bai.
They approached the two survivors and saw that their faces were pale and lifeless, and their lips were devoid of any color.
Seeing them like this, Su Tian suddenly had an idea.
She deliberately looked at Gu Bai and said, "Let's untie them. They're barely alive anyway, and they don't have the strength to run."
When it gets dark, we'll pull them on a cart to the outskirts and throw them to the wolves.
There's no time to lose, you need to get me to the meeting quickly.
Gu Bai thought for a moment and immediately replied, "Okay."
After they walked out the door, Gu Bai locked it.
"Sister, what do you want?"
A murderous glint flashed in Su Tian's eyes—a glint Gu Bai had never seen before—"Stalking."
Seeing Gu Bai's confused look, she slowly explained after getting into the car.
"They are like some ancient assassins, specially trained, and their willpower is as hard as steel."
Even if you torture them until they're on their last breath, it'll be very difficult to pry any useful information out of them.
After hearing this, Gu Bai suddenly understood.
