767 How Dare You!

Liu Jun instantly hopped onto a nearby tree and sniffed at the air.

Soon, she located her son and Lin Xiaolu by their scents. Without saying any word, she rushed straight toward that area, as she was worried that the two kids might be in danger.

On the other side of the base, Lin Qiao moved closer to the house as she looked into a window while listening to the conversation of those people. That was a remote area indeed, far away from the base center. People would rarely come to that place, so it was unlikely for them to be found.

The two kids were tied on a pillar, with their limbs tied up and mouths sealed. Tongtong was so frightened that he couldn't stop crying. Unlike him, Lin Xiaolu appeared to be rather calm. She coldly looked at the few men around them with cold eyes.

"This little girl is pretty calm! She's good-looking. Sadly, she's too young. I'm not interested in kids!" A man walked up to Lin Xiaolu as he laughed and reached out to touch her smooth and tender cheek.

Lin Xiaolu turned her face away with disgust to dodge his hand.

"Indeed. She'd grow into a pretty lady. It's a shame though that she's not going to grow up!" Another man leaned against the wall nearby and laughed regretfully.

At that point, another man ran over and said delightfully, "It's done. Lu Tong was brought to Yuan Tianxing. He won't get himself out of this, no matter how he tries to explain."

"Told you! Our Boss's plan is smart. Lu Tong and Li Honglin are definitely gonna suffer. They shouldn't have made our Boss their enemy," said the man who was guarding the two kids.

Those people thought that Chen Hao wanted Lu Tong dead because Lu Tong made him and his men handle the baits to distract the zombies. They had no idea that the real reason why Chen Hao wanted to kill Lu Tong so much was that the latter knew his secret.

Lin Qiao leaned against the wall, right beside the man who was talking. She read the minds of those people and learned that their boss was a man named Chen Hao, who was also a superpowered one among the second batch of Hades Base survivors.

She had heard his name before. Earlier on, she sent Xie Dong to observe those people. Xie Dong had mentioned the names of Lu Tong, Li Honglin, Chen Hao, and Wang Jian to her.

She wasn't expecting Chen Hao to try and make use of her family, and even to kill the two kids. That was suicide.

"How dare you touch the two kids?" A cold voice was suddenly heard among the people.

"Who is this!" Except for the two kids, everyone on the scene gave a start. They stood up immediately to scan the surroundings with their eyes, becoming fully alert.

Lin Qiao showed up beside the pillar which the two kids were tied on, looking at those people coldly.

"Who are you? You better don't get yourself involved in this!" Seeing her, those people sighed with relief. After all, a visible enemy was way better than an invisible one, not to mention the fact that she was only a woman.

In front of those people, Lin Qiao swung a finger and released a thin wisp of black smoke. The smoke drifted across the ropes on the two kids' hands and feet.

The ropes fell off in the next second and the two kids hurriedly stood up. Lin Xiaolu dragged Tongtong behind Lin Qiao while ripping the tape off her mouth.

The group of men immediately pulled out their guns and pointed them at Lin Qiao.

After the apocalypse, guns and many other weapons were no longer controlled. Almost everybody had guns and knives.

As Lin Qiao waved a hand, a few figured showed up by her sides, wearing camouflage suits and sunglasses.

"Capture every single one of them. I want them alive," Lin Qiao gave an order, then held the hands of the two kids as she turned and left. The ones that she just brought out of her space were Jingyan, Song, Chong, Pesticide, and two zombie leaders.

As the zombie squad suddenly showed up, Chen Hao's men automatically fired their weapons.

Bang! Bang! Bang! When their bullets were shot out, Lin Qiao's zombies flashed across the air and disappeared.

Next, those men had their eyes dazzled, each suffering a heavy strike on the back of their heads. Their guns were brought down, and those people were knocked out even before they could release their powers.

Jingyan and the other zombies carried those men and followed Lin Qiao, jumping out of the window.

At that moment, another figure flashed over.

"Tongtong!" Liu Jun rushed up to Lin Qiao in a panic.

"Mom!" Tongtong excitedly jumped at his mother once he saw her.

"Tongtong is fine. He's just scared." Lin Qiao didn't say that. It was Lin Xiaolu, who was standing by her side.

"Good, good! What about you, Xiaolu? Did they hurt you?" Liu Jun scooped Tongtong up and checked him to confirm that he was unharmed. After that, she finally relaxed. She also concernedly asked Lin Xiaolu if she was okay.

Lin Xiaolu raised her head as she looked at Lin Qiao and laughed, "They wanted to hurt us, but you guys showed up before that!"

Lin Qiao pointed a finger at her head and said, "Fortunately, they didn't make a move ahead of schedule. Otherwise, you two would be in danger. Why weren't you frightened?"

Lin Xiaolu seemed to be composed the whole time, as if she didn't worry that those people might hurt her at all.

"Because I can read their minds. I knew that they wouldn't kill Tongtong and me so soon. Since they wouldn't do it so soon, we had time for you guys to come to rescue us!" Lin Xiaolu grinned proudly.

"You are a smart girl!" Lin Qiao smilingly patted her head, then turned and looked at an unconscious man who as carried in Jingyan's hand. "Alright, let's head back. This isn't over."

Finishing talking, she waved a hand and brought out a car from her space. She told Liu Jun to get into the backseat with the two kids, then put herself into the driver's seat and started the car.

Jingyan and the other zombies each carried a man as they nimbly hopped onto the surrounding buildings, fleetingly moving toward the school.

…

"What do you mean? I passed by that area to ask some people for a favor. I didn't do anything else. Don't you blame me for something I didn't do! I didn't do anything wrong!" Lu Tong was led to a classroom in the school. Only one table was left in the room placed on the platform, while all the other tables had been removed.

Lu Tong sat down on a chair that was three meters away from the platform. Two soldiers were standing behind him. Du Yuanxing was sitting on the platform with his legs crossed and arms folded. "You said that you were asking some people for a favor. Who were those people? What was that favor? How am I supposed to know if it was a good favor or a bad one if you don't tell me about it?"

"What bad thing can I possibly do? I was trying to get my flat switched. I don't like the one that I'm living in now. Am I not allowed to do that? Is that a bad thing?" Lu Tong whinged with a frown.
