Chapter 57 A Different Kind of Black Smoke

As An Nuan entered the room, Chen Wenjing held a laser saber with murderous intent.

The laser saber extended to a meter in length in his hand, making it more lethal and wider in range.

Intelligent weapons that could adapt to their users were indeed well-suited for him.

"Boss, let me kill those two women. They're no good, and keeping them is a disaster!"

All those unspeakable words reached Chen Wenjing's ears.

From the day the old woman tricked him and his sister out and drove them into the snow.

Within a certain range, good things might not be heard.

But words filled with malice would absolutely reach his ears.

Chen Wenjing's eyes turned crimson, wishing he could hack those two women into pieces.

An Nuan smiled, "Wenjing, you're giving off some strong vibes of a male supporting character turning evil."

"Boss!"

"It's not time yet. If they haven't made a move, it's fine. But if they do..."

A chill emanated from An Nuan's starry eyes.

Everyone understood.

If they don't act, it's fine. If they act, they will be killed without mercy!

Chen Wenjing prayed that they would make a move.

After her daily training, An Nuan took Xiao Long to play games.

The little one was indeed very capable, not only smashing a metal vase with a single punch but also bending her pure copper ornament with her bare hands.

Everyone worried that if this continued, the villa would eventually be demolished by the little one.

An Nuan and Hai Changfeng devised a small game together to help Xiao Long control her strength, hoping to teach her to manage her monstrous power.

Every time she succeeded in a small training session, she would be rewarded with snacks and toys.

Xiao Long spent a day earning five chocolates and a plush bear.

After receiving them, she fell asleep exhausted.

An Nuan covered her with a thin blanket.

"The little one has so much energy. If she's still asleep at dinner time, let her sleep. We'll warm up a portion for her on the electric hot plate, and she can eat it when she wakes up."

"Boss, you don't need to worry about Xiao Long. Missing one meal won't do her any harm."

"Adults eat two meals a day, but children must eat on time to grow well."

For Xiao Long's health, An Nuan specifically calculated the ratio of vegetables to protein.

Carrot fried rice and steamed egg custard were made into the shapes of rabbits and kittens using molds.

The braised pork was made with less seasoning, keeping the flavor simpler.

An Nuan, who usually spent an hour cooking, spent nearly two hours today for the little one.

Chang Kaitong couldn't cook, let alone make food for children. He could only watch from the side.

But he was very smart, meticulously memorizing the steps An Nuan and Luo Luo took while cooking.

Initially, Chang Kaitong only knew how to peel when making fruit platters, but now he could make beautiful fruit platters like those served in hotels.

Luo Luo baked a few cupcakes. After they were fresh out of the oven, she decorated them with various creams and chocolates, sprinkling them with candy crumbs. They smelled very sweet.

"Try my small cakes and see if they're too sweet."

The men shared a small cupcake and ate it with great pleasure.

Chen Wenjing praised profusely, "Delicious! Just like what they sell in stores outside."

"Did Sister Luo Luo used to own a dessert shop? You're so amazing."

"Ms. Luo is someone who knows how to do what she knows how to eat."

Hai Changfeng sneakily reached his hand towards the edge of the plate, and several slender vines wrapped around his palm.

Luo Luo turned around and laughed, "It's not good for you, a parent, to be the first to steal food!"

"Hehe, I need to replenish my energy. Eating more is good for my health!"

"Be careful you don't get too fat!"

Hai Changfeng smiled sweetly, with faint dimples on his face. He sneakily used his other hand to reach behind him and grabbed another cupcake.

Everyone ate dinner together, and An Nuan planned for their outing tomorrow.

When Chang Kaitong heard that only An Nuan and Luo Luo would be going out, he strongly objected.

"Why don't you take me? It's not safe for you two girls."

An Nuan and Luo Luo both smiled.

These two girls were much stronger than most men!

"Xiao Nuan is already third tier. Are you still worried about her getting hurt by others?"

"But there's always a 'what if.' Wouldn't it be safer if I went with you?"

Chang Kaitong felt a little wronged.

Had he done something wrong that made Sister Nuan not trust him enough to take him along?

It was over, his nose felt sore, what should he do if he wanted to cry?

Chang Kaitong was holding back.

An Nuan said, "We're not going to get crystals this time. We'll come back as soon as we find the person. We won't linger."

"But what if..."

"Little brother, Zi Xing is staying with twenty or thirty people across the street. Your Brother Hai isn't good at fighting, and Xiao Long is too young. If something were to happen and they had malicious intentions, who could you rely on to help you?"

Chang Kaitong actually knew Hai Changfeng's abilities. Although he was a 'poisonous healer,' when it came to actual combat, he was never half-hearted.

He was still very capable!

Chen Wenjing was also very capable, a dual-ability user, so he didn't need to worry about her.

Only Xiao Long had a problem.

Even with her monstrous strength, she was still a child, more fragile than any of them.

"Little brother, zombies and monsters are not scary. It's people's hearts that are the most terrifying. You stay home and protect them. I'll take Juanzi, and we'll be back quickly."

Since An Nuan had said so, Chang Kaitong didn't dare to act up.

It was just that his little face looked so wronged that Luo Luo couldn't help but want to laugh.

He was clearly a powerful ability user, but now he looked like a little cub being scolded by his mother.

After everyone finished dinner, Luo Luo began hacking into the satellite to scout the terrain in the city and choose the safest route.

However, hacking into a satellite was not as easy as hacking into the network. Luo Luo fiddled with it for over two hours, but she was always bounced back at the last two checkpoints.

She tried several times without success. The last time, she held her breath and tried one last time when her computer popped up a string of code, rapidly flashing and rewriting what she had written.

Inputting the secret key for authorization, connecting to the terminal, success!

"I-it succeeded just like that?"

[Little beauty, I've helped you connect. What you do next is up to you.]

"Black Smoke? Is that you!"

An Nuan also leaned over to look at the computer when she heard the name Black Smoke.

[Little beauty, your skills are good. I rarely see such a skilled female hacker like you.]

"Black Smoke, are you mocking me?"

[How could I? I admire you sincerely. Every cell of me is sincere!]

"How many pounds of oil did you eat today? You talk with such a sharp tongue."

[I'm sorry, it's been too long since I've eaten normal food! Let me choose a route for you. How about this one?]

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line, but Black Smoke marked a winding path.

However, judging from the satellite imagery, the surrounding roads had varying degrees of shadows.

An Nuan: "The shadows indicate mutated creatures, likely hidden underground."

"These red dots are zombies, right? This satellite can detect zombies! No wonder they can always make predictions."

"This technology is amazing. I wonder who developed it."

Luo Luo nodded, "I'm very curious too. But I'm curious about one thing now. Xiao Nuan, don't you think Black Smoke's tone is a little strange today?"
