Chapter 28 Before the Earthquake

September 18th, 342. 20:00.

"Still no idea what Ishikawa's plan is?"

At the F City base, Tang Li asked Wu Qing.

In the distance, a quantum signal transmitter was plugged into the invasive brain-computer interface socket on Feng Hua's head.

Wu Qing shook his head. "Feng Hua and I, controlling Takahashi's body, have gained the trust of people at the Holy Light organization's secret stronghold, but they also don't know where Ishikawa has gone."

"This Ishikawa is truly cautious."

Tang Li frowned, feeling that Ishikawa was brewing a major move.

"I heard that this plan was supposed to be executed a little later, but due to what happened in D City, Ishikawa decided to advance the execution."

"Furthermore, because his identity was leaked, he believes there is a traitor within the Holy Light organization. Therefore, he will not disclose his whereabouts to anyone, including the people in the Holy Light organization, until the plan is successful."

Hearing Wu Qing's explanation, Tang Li also shook her head helplessly.

After all this effort, the reason for Ishikawa's caution was caused by her?

Instructing Wu Qing and Feng Hua to continue controlling Takahashi's body to gather intelligence on the Holy Light organization, Tang Li went out to arrange for the response to the earthquake.

During the day, in Jiangcheng, they handed over captured goods, calculated rewards, disbanded teams, and divided points...

The interrupted transportation lines in D City also needed to be restored. The military was to be stationed in the service areas of D City to deliver quantum communication tools to cities in the east, such as A City, B City, and C City.

With all sorts of busy tasks, Tang Li, as the captain, could not leave.

After finishing, Tang Li left a clone in Jiangcheng and rushed to the F City base without stopping.

Two days after leaving the F City base, the "Apocalypse Mall" had accumulated many discarded items that had not been stored in the space, and many orders had not been delivered.

Especially the large pile of discarded items transported from D City.

Tang Li needed to store these discarded items in her space and deliver the uncompleted orders before the great earthquake arrived.

For some time after the great earthquake, all parties would be in chaos and would not have time to deal with these matters.

The procedure remained the same as previously established.

However, this time, with more people from D City who had installed invasive brain-computer interfaces, the number of trucks was no longer limited to 31.

Based on the volume of discarded items accumulated, Tang Li replicated hundreds of large trucks from her space, along with a corresponding number of wireless brain-controlled robots wearing masks and cloaked in black robes.

After loading these discarded items onto the trucks, as soon as they drove out of the F City base, Tang Li noticed someone following them.

Tang Li was a little puzzled and thought, "These R-country people, their nest has been raided, and they still have the energy to follow?"

Upon closer inspection, she realized it wasn't R-country people, but people from the authorities!

Tang Li frowned, thinking, "It seems the authorities have been influenced by conspiracy theories and rumors and have begun to intensify their investigation into the 'Apocalypse Mall' and the 'Omnipotent Merchant'..."

Ignoring the people following behind, Tang Li instructed everyone to speed up, took a detour, and drove the trucks into a deserted town.

Then, she stored all these trucks and wireless brain-controlled robots into her space and left herself.

When the pursuers caught up to this deserted town, they only found the tire tracks on the ground that had suddenly disappeared...

At this time, Tang Li had already reached another deserted location, released hundreds more trucks loaded with goods, and a corresponding number of masked, black-robed wireless brain-controlled robots, and led the convoy back to the F City base.

Upon returning, Tang Li had Tang Guo release a message that due to being tracked again, all large-volume goods transactions were immediately suspended.

However, because of the imminent earthquake and the special circumstances, Tang Li still had Tang Guo deliver the goods that had just been brought back first.

No one expected that this suspension of large-volume goods transactions would never be reopened.

And this batch of goods was also the last batch of goods delivered by the "Apocalypse Mall" at the F City base.

After this incident, Tang Li began to consider how to quickly eliminate the Holy Light organization after the great earthquake began.

Once the Holy Light organization was dealt with, the responsibility of the "Apocalypse Mall" would be fulfilled, and the F City base could be disbanded. She would no longer have to transport supplies back and forth every day and would not fear the investigation by the authorities.

Soon, the time reached 22:00.

The great earthquake began!
