Chapter 39
Yu Qingxian's three gunshots caught the attention of the people next door.
After all, the sound of gunshots in their ears meant that they were on the same side.
The leading supernatural ability user had originally sent someone to take a look and bring the woman back if she was pretty.
If she wasn't, then forget about it.
Judging from their appearance, there was nothing worth robbing.
So there shouldn't be a need to shoot. Could they be fighting?
If they were fighting, it seemed that both the man and the woman were not ordinary people.
Judging from the direction they came from, it was towards the city center.
Could they be supernatural ability users?
And these three gunshots, unknown to these people, also drew the attention of the several young girls locked in the room.
Could this group of people be planning to rob others again?
However, just over ten minutes later, the door of the room where they were held suddenly opened.
The person who walked in was not those people, but a girl who had wrapped herself up.
---
Yu Qingxian was not too surprised to see the eight young girls in the room.
She let go of the doorknob and turned to leave.
As for the people in the room, they had already been taken care of by Shi Xingyu.
He was not here now, probably taking a few people to eat.
Yu Qingxian squatted in front of one of the bodies and searched around, finding a bunch of keys.
So she turned around and walked back to the previous room, throwing the bunch of keys inside.
Their cars were all downstairs.
As long as they wanted to survive, there would always be a way.
Those young girls seemed quite young.
They were probably students.
Being able to survive in such a situation was enough to show their determination to live.
Yu Qingxian left this place, and the heavy snow was still falling outside.
The smell of blood shouldn't spread too quickly.
I wonder where Shi Xingyu, that zombie, went to eat.
Two people were eaten, one was the leading supernatural ability user, and the other seemed to have a more enticing taste, probably a mutant.
He sure knows how to pick his food.
As Yu Qingxian walked downstairs, she just grabbed her luggage, and her ears twitched.
It seemed that a convoy was coming.
Without thinking, Yu Qingxian lay down on the ground, pretending to be dead.
When Shi Xingyu came back and saw Yu Qingxian lying on the ground pretending to be dead, he almost fell down.
What's the use of playing dead at this time?
Fortunately, he came back; otherwise, Yu Qingxian would have been treated as a corpse.
He lifted Yu Qingxian with one hand and carried the luggage with the other, instantly disappearing into the house.
The snow outside was still heavy.
Yu Qingxian stepped out of the house and signaled Shi Xingyu to stop.
Then they crouched outside the house.
At this moment, Yu Qingxian no longer pretended to be dead.
The convoy stopped in front of the house, and a man in a black trench coat got out of the car.
According to Yu Qingxian's aesthetics, even in the entertainment industry, there were probably not many who could compare.
Was she going out less often?
Or did she not watch many videos?
Why hadn't she seen such a handsome guy before the apocalypse?
This level of attractiveness was comparable to a male lead.
Yu Qingxian looked at the man stepping out of the car with snowflakes falling on her head, her eyes fixed on him.
Shi Xingyu glanced at her with some confusion.
Why are you not playing dead now?
Just as Yu Qingxian finished marveling at the man's handsomeness, another off-road vehicle came rushing over, even grazing the spot where the man had parked.
This off-road vehicle was familiar to Yu Qingxian, although it wasn't the most familiar one. That belonged to Gu Wanqing, for sure.
As soon as the car came to a stop, the henchmen by the man's side immediately pulled out their guns and aimed at Gu Wanqing's vehicle.
But Gu Wanqing showed no fear whatsoever.
Without even sparing a glance at the man, she turned around and headed towards the under-construction building.
Wen Qingsheng also got out of the car and made his way towards the building where Yu Qingxian had just played dead.
Though there was a blizzard outside, the distance between Yu Qingxian and them wasn't too far, so they could hear their conversation.
It turned out that these people were associated with the ones who had abducted the family members of the official tech personnel before.
They had disbanded after a dispute because they believed that capturing government officials meant inviting death upon themselves.
However, these people had imprisoned the young girls and were abusing their power in this place.
---
Yu Qingxian watched as Wen Qingsheng entered the first floor of the building and discovered the three corpses.
After checking, he confirmed that they were already dead.
Only then did he stand up.
It took them several days to find this place.
The information was obtained from those people through Gu Wanqing.
Apparently, there were some thugs in this area who had captured several girls, in the outskirts of H City.
As for the exact location in the outskirts, it was unclear.
So, for these past few days, Gu Wanqing had been searching for these people.
And what attracted them here were the gunshots that sounded like illusions.
At this moment, Wen Qingsheng could confirm that the gunshots they heard in the blizzard were not illusions.
After looking around and withdrawing his gaze, he left the room.
Gu Wanqing also came downstairs with the eight young girls.
They were already wearing thick clothes, and Yu Qingxian had a rough idea of where those clothes came from.
But that wasn't her concern.
Gu Wanqing was doing a good deed, and she didn't need to stop her.
When the eight girls reached the ground floor and looked at the cars, Gu Wanqing asked if any of them knew how to drive.
Once she confirmed there was someone who could, she made the arrangements.
As for that man, Gu Wanqing temporarily didn't have time to deal with him.
After Wen Qingsheng drove away in one car, taking another car with him, Gu Wanqing finally began negotiating with that man.
The two of them seemed to know each other.
Seeing them talking, Yu Qingxian's curiosity was instantly ignited.
She took out her binoculars.
So, Gu Wanqing's and that man's faces appeared before Yu Qingxian's eyes.
Actually, Yu Qingxian could see the two of them even without the binoculars, and she could even hear their conversation.
That's why Shi Xingyu couldn't understand why Yu Qingxian still needed the binoculars.
From Gu Wanqing's conversation with that man, Yu Qingxian learned that the man's name was Shen Yanli.
He was the boss of an underground arms dealer. Gu Wanqing had been running all over the place to find this Shen Yanli.
Shen Yanli surely had a significant stockpile of firearms.
Coupled with the fact that the authorities were highly concerned that Shen Yanli might become disloyal.
Well, Shen Yanli was a criminal before the apocalypse, but he had disguised himself too well.
The authorities couldn't find any evidence to arrest him.
So, in Gu Wanqing's eyes, Shen Yanli was like a thousand-year-old fox.
However, she never expected that they would meet in this place.
Because Gu Wanqing's license plate had the word "police" on it, Shen Yanli naturally knew that Gu Wanqing was an official.
Yu Qingxian listened while gossiping in his mind.
If this Gu Wanqing is the female lead, then Shen Yanli must be the male lead, right?
But that person who has been following Gu Wanqing and sniping feels pretty good too.
True, if there's a male lead, there should be a second male lead.
At this moment, Yu Qingxian felt a bit sorry for the sniper.
Although you came first, love is not something that follows a strict order.
Shi Xingyu listened to Yu Qingxian rambling on the side, but he couldn't understand a word.
However, he could tell from Yu Qingxian's expression that it was like the face of a zombie who hadn't eaten human flesh for a long time suddenly seeing a person.
That focused and serious expression that also felt very delicious.
Shi Xingyu didn't understand, but he looked towards the man and woman.
At this moment, his face showed no expression.
He didn't understand, not at all.
