Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Fu Shinan didn’t try to dissuade Ji Zan. She knew that he couldn’t just leave
Chang’an behind. She quickly said, “Be careful then.”
Ji Zan nodded and carried Da Fei into a small lounge in the supermarket. The space was small, but it was well hidden.
The moment Fu Shinan was next to Ji Zan, she quickly activated her enhanced abilities.
By now, it was completely dark outside. The streetlights were long shattered, and everything looked pitch black in the distance.
Da Fei fell into a deep sleep again, and Fu Shinan leaned back in a chair to rest. Her ears were constantly alert to any sounds outside, afraid that the zombies might smell the scent of blood and rush in.
Meanwhile, Ji Zan arrived at the farm. He was worried about Chang’an’s safety and drove there quickly.
Cao Yong and the others were the first to come out to greet him. Their faces turned grim when they saw Ji Zan alone. Cao Yong immediately asked, “Mr. Ji, where is Miss Fu?”
Ji Zan put on a mournful expression. “Miss Fu was bitten by zombies and didn’t make it.”
Cao Yong’s face changed instantly. “That’s impossible! Miss Fu couldn’t have died. Mr. Ji, where did you hide her?”
“If she’s still alive, she would have come back with me for sure. You should know her personality. Why would you think I hid her?” Ji Zan didn’t wait for him to answer and asked directly, “What about Chang’an?”
Cao Yong’s eyes turned cold for a moment, then he smiled. “He and a few others went out with MO Cheng to find you. Didn’t you meet them on the way?”
Ji Zan’s gaze became intense. “That’s impossible! If you’re not planning to release them, then I’ll have to force my way in.”
Wu Bai immediately raised his gun. “Take one more step, and I’ll kill you.”
“You dare to lay a hand on me?” Ji Zan took a step forward, his smile seeming more like a sneer.
A glint of ruthlessness flashed in Wu Bails eyes as he was about to pull the trigger.
Suddenly, Ji Zan made a move and grabbed Wu Bai’s wrist, redirecting the barrel of the gun towards Cao Yong.
Cao Yong was startled and hastily retreated, narrowly avoiding the bullet grazing his ear as it shot past.
At the same time, Ji Zan snatched the hunting rifle and aimed it at Wu Bai.
“Young man, this gun isn’t something everyone can play with. You’re too slow.”
Wu Bai’s face turned grim. Indeed, the gun was something he obtained only after the apocalypse, courtesy of the Prophet. He was still new to it…
Ji Zan shifted the gun’s aim towards Cao Yong, his voice growing colder. “Hand over my people! ”
Cao Yong suddenly laughed. “Mr. Ji, Wu Bai was just joking with you. How could he really want to kill you? Your people did go out to find you, and we’re here to wait for them.”
“Fine.” Ji Zan didn’t waste any more words and pulled the trigger once again.
The bullet struck the ground near Cao Yong’s feet. Wu Bai, frightened, ran away, and Ji Zan fired another shot.
Wu Bai groaned and fell to the ground, his lower leg pierced by the bullet.
Cao Yong, seemingly fearful, took two steps forward and spoke in a softer tone. “Mr. Ji, don’t act rashly. The gunshot will attract zombies.” As he finished speaking, he reached for Ji Zan’s wrist.
“You truly are skilled!” Ji Zan tilted the gun, lifting his foot and aiming a kick at Cao Yong.
Cao Yong dodged aside, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. “Mr.
Ji, you’re not an ordinary person either. A CEO who knows Dragon Soul Organization’s grappling techniques.”
“You too!” Ji Zan sneered.
During their exchange, Ji Zan and Cao Yong traded a few more moves. Cao Yong made a momentary mistake and was kicked several meters away by Ji Zan. He quickly got up and ran into the farm.
Ji Zan immediately got into his car, crashing through the barrier and entering the farm.
“Chang’an?” Ji Zan kicked open the original door, only to find it empty. Fu Shinan’s room also lacked Shi Chaner and Bai Lianhua. Even Cao Yong and Wu Bai seemed to have vanished.
Ji Zan opened his wristwatch. He had planted a tracking device on Xiao Chang’an, and after tuning the frequency, the watch emitted a red light that varied in brightness according to the distance. Soon, he discovered a cellar. Just as he was about to approach, he heard a muffled sound, and a bullet flew past him.
Shortly after, Cao Yong’s voice came from outside the house. “If you want your nephew and those two women, trade Fu Shinan for them!”
“Why do you insist on Fu Shinan? What do you really know?” Ji Zan swiftly moved to another direction as he spoke.
As expected, gunshots rang out once again, leaving a few bullet holes where he was just standing. “Fu Shinan is of great use to me, and I know she won’t die.”
“Oh? Do you have feelings for Fu Shinan?” Ji Zan quickly fired a shot and rolled on the ground. After several probing attempts, he roughly figured out Cao Yong’s position. Swiftly discarding his gun, he pulled the trigger into the darkness.
A muffled groan followed, and Cao Yong gritted his teeth and cursed, “Ji Zan, don’t play mind games with me.. If you don’t hand over Fu Shinan, your nephew will become a corpse! Wu Bai, do it!”
