Luo Xiaole's heart skipped a beat.
The knocking at the door carried an ominous air. Could it be that climbing zombie that had escaped last night?
No…
That zombie only came out at night. The rhythm of this knocking didn’t sound like a zombie’s.
But after knocking, there was no one at the door…
Luo Xiaole suddenly remembered the strange message from yesterday: "We're coming to find you."
She felt a chill run down her spine.
Someone had pretended to be a buyer to confirm her whereabouts, but in reality, they had been targeting her and had come to her door!
And the person's focus wasn't on the main door, but on using the knocking to draw all their attention to the entrance.
Their point of attack must be…
Luo Xiaole realized something, stood up, and pulled Zhu Hui and Wang Hao away from the window, running to Luo Shu's position. She looked towards the window in terror.
She saw that several grappling hooks had silently hooked onto their window sill.
At this moment, as the grappling hooks shook rapidly, several people had already climbed up, grabbed the edge of the bed, and jumped into Luo Xiaole's apartment.
Seeing the messy tattoos on their bodies and the scars on their faces, Luo Xiaole instantly guessed: The Green Dragon Gang!
Each of them held a firearm, and some carried spiked clubs. They were now looking at Luo Xiaole and the others with malice.
"Yo, two chicks~" an exceptionally burly man emerged from the crowd behind, looking greedily at Luo Xiaole and Zhu Hui.
"You're a bit skinny, but I like thin girls, with a good figure! Not to mention you're quite pretty~"
"Hahahahaha" The people beside him immediately whistled and joined in with mocking laughter.
"You two, who makes the weapons?"
After his teasing, the burly man's expression changed instantly, his eyes turning gloomy. He turned the muzzle of his gun towards Wang Hao and Luo Shu.
In his impression, only males could have such formidable weapon modification abilities.
Coupled with the orderly command in the group chat last night.
He was convinced that the "weapon master" in the group was one of these two.
This little fatty looked like a sidekick.
His gun was aimed at Wang Hao, so it must be this four-eyed bookworm?
Wang Hao was so scared he couldn't move, his eyes frantically darting towards Luo Xiaole. He was extremely anxious and called out in a low voice, "Xiaole, what do we do?"
To his surprise, Luo Xiaole stared straight ahead, showing no intention of acknowledging him.
He spat in his heart, "This Luo Xiaole usually seems quite sharp, and she's survived near-death situations with them a few times, but at a crucial moment, for her own benefit, she's pushing him out to take the bullets!"
He was not happy about this.
"If you're so indifferent to me, and you're unrighteous, don't blame me for being unprincipled!"
Wang Hao raised his hand and shouted, "It... it's not me! It's the skinny bean sprout next to me wearing the oversized hoodie! You're looking for her!"
"Wang Hao!" Luo Shu heard him and cursed angrily, "Are you even a man? Do you have any loyalty left?"
"She pushed me out first!" Wang Hao gritted his teeth, filled with indignation.
Unexpectedly, the Green Dragon leader narrowed his eyes and scanned the group. His gun did not move, but instead, he grinned.
"Good acting, kid." His eyes were fixed on Wang Hao. "Unfortunately, I'm an old hand. Your backstabbing dramas don't work on me. You want to trick me into focusing my attention on that bean sprout, and then find an opportunity to deal with me, right?"
The burly man sneered, "No way, you're the one who makes weapons, aren't you! Do you know what the consequences are for tricking me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the next second, a subordinate behind him raised a gun and fired directly at Wang Hao!
Everyone's heart jumped!
The next second, Wang Hao fell to the ground, motionless. However, no blood flowed out, and the gun did not make any sound.
A tranquilizer gun!
"Bring him over!" Two subordinates heard the order, aiming their guns at Luo Xiaole and the other two. They rushed forward, and on either side, they lifted Wang Hao and carried him to the window.
They tied a safety rope around him and lowered him from the window like transporting pork.
The leader spoke again, "Take that kid to Brother Cheng." Then, his eyes greedily scanned Luo Xiaole. "I'll enjoy myself before I go down."
Those men knew exactly what their boss was like. Leaving a few subordinates behind, the rest quickly put on their safety ropes and returned the way they came through the window.
"Xiaole, Xiaole, say something…" Zhu Hui's legs had long gone weak with fear. She looked at Luo Xiaole in despair, but Luo Xiaole still showed no reaction.
Everyone thought that Luo Xiaole only froze in response when encountering zombies.
But Luo Xiaole's heart was filled with unspeakable bitterness!
From the moment the Green Dragon Gang appeared at the window, her body had automatically entered a state of paralysis. She couldn't move at all, and could only watch as Wang Hao was taken away by them.
Watching the Green Dragon leader and his subordinates approach them with guns!
Luo Shu hid a small knife in her sleeve. Seeing the group approaching, she lunged forward, intending to snatch the gun from the leader's hand.
But the leader was no fool. He recovered in an instant, saw Luo Shu lunging at him, disengaged the safety, and prepared to shoot!
Luo Shu's pupils dilated. "Oh no, how is this person so fast!"
3, 2, 1...!
Luo Xiaole's control was instantly released!
Taking advantage of Luo Shu's body blocking her, she reached into her pocket and shot out four thumbtacks!
"Thwack!" Perhaps it was due to her anger, but this time, she was quite accurate.
One of them flew rapidly into the Green Dragon leader's forehead!
In an instant, the Green Dragon leader was dead!
He didn't even have time to fire his gun.
Seeing their leader suddenly killed, the other subordinates panicked. They fired several shots in a disorganized manner.
But the window behind them seemed to have some mechanism. Two small knives flew out horizontally, and instantly two people were hit and fell into a pool of blood!
The group's hearts tightened. They suddenly realized that the method by which their leader was killed was exactly the same as the terrifying strawberry bear they had seen in the neighboring apartment two nights ago!
They immediately understood that the thin, small girl in front of them was likely that terrifying strawberry bear.
She was a female Yama!
The group lost all will to fight. They scrambled and turned, rushing towards the balcony, grabbing their climbing ropes and escaping!
Their lives were the priority!
But before they could reach the ground floor, the small knife in Luo Shu's hand flew out again, severing their ropes in mid-air!
The few of them screamed and fell to the ground below.
Thus, the notorious Green Dragon Gang in the neighborhood lost more than half of its fighting strength.
They would no longer be able to cause trouble for a considerable period!
But Luo Xiaole couldn't smile.
The Green Dragon Gang had harmed too many people in secret. The lives lost were lost forever.
Moreover, she had heard the conversation between the leader and his subordinates. Behind them, there was a man called Brother Cheng.
That person had even abducted Wang Hao.
"Xiaole… What about Wang Hao…" Zhu Hui asked timidly, looking at Luo Xiaole.
"Wang Hao? Don't talk to me about Wang Hao!" Luo Shu was furious. "When everyone could have solved the problem together, he had to stab his companion in the back! What kind of companion is that?"
Zhu Hui looked at Luo Xiaole, who remained silently contemplative.
To be honest, Luo Xiaole had considered Wang Hao a companion for a while. However, Wang Hao's various behaviors during this time had deeply disappointed her.
She lowered her head, then remembered the small knives that had suddenly appeared at the window earlier. Those were not set by her.
Someone was helping her. Fortunately, that person had effectively delayed them for a few seconds, allowing them to escape.
Unfortunately, she didn't know who that person was. She even wondered if it was the same person who had helped her at the supermarket entrance and on the day of the climbing zombie.
That person was more like their companion.
Unable to find an answer, Luo Xiaole shook her head and stopped thinking. She leaned back on the sofa, preparing to re-evaluate her next course of action.
"Buzz~"
Suddenly, the crescent white ring on her hand vibrated violently twice, and then a bright light slowly spread through the room.
