Chapter 84: Capturing Alive

In this room, it was the first time it had truly been invaded. Chen Mu forcefully kept himself calm and pretended to be asleep until the other side made any aggressive moves.

In fact, the distance between the two sides was quite far, so even if Chen Mu made some noise, it wouldn't necessarily alert the intruders. However, he remained cautious, fearing that among them might be someone like Sun Yuan with extraordinary abilities.

The several shadowy figures cautiously explored the surroundings, seemingly wandering aimlessly. They appeared to be drawn to the various exquisite items in the room and almost let out exclamations a few times.

Chen Mu wanted to understand their intentions, so he continued pretending to sleep.

As time passed, he finally managed to get a clear view. There were four people who came, and in the dim moonlight shining through the window, he couldn't see their appearances clearly, but judging from their movements and postures, it should be three men and one woman.

These four individuals sneaked around, sometimes moving out of Chen Mu's sight, but they maintained a certain distance from the two rooms.

After a while, they arrived at a corner of the room.

There, all the food was stored.

Flour, rice, seasonings, and vegetable packs.

Chen Mu didn't wait any longer. He quietly got up from the bed, opened a hole in the wall on the opposite side of the room from the intruders, and swiftly left the room.

He crouched down, moving stealthily, and approached the four intruders.

When they saw the piled-up food on the cart, they became visibly excited. The young woman even let out a soft, suppressed cry, startling her companions and Chen Mu.

The four individuals paused and looked towards the two rooms like statues, waiting for some time to see if they had woken anyone up. After realizing that nobody was disturbed, they finally relaxed.

But just as they turned back, Wei Dalei's snoring suddenly echoed.

This unexpected noise frightened the four people. One of them accidentally bumped into the cart, producing a clattering sound.

Chen Mu was hesitating whether to act alone or not. Initially, he thought about waking everyone up with a loud shout, but he was afraid they might escape. If he didn't capture all of them, he worried there would be repercussions.

His plan was simple: approach them stealthily and tie up all four individuals.

He had become quite adept at this method after dealing with He Ying in the past few days. He could do it from various angles and in different ways, always appearing like a ghost, and He Ying had already been bound so many times that he had lost his temper.

But the commotion around the cart eventually alerted someone.

Chen Mu distinctly heard He Ying shout, "Someone!"

Then Dong Junwei followed with a loud cry, "Da Lei!"

During critical moments, shouting "Da Lei" had already become a consensus among everyone, especially Dong Junwei, who executed this move with great skill.

The person's wooden stick struck the stainless steel shield, but he miscalculated his force, and the intense friction between his palm and the stick caused him to instinctively release his grip.

The weapon fell to the ground.

Startled, the impact of Chen Mu's counterattack had already knocked him out and sent him sprawling to the ground, and at the same time, his hands and feet were bound.

At this moment, Wei Dalei and the other boys rushed out of the room.

Dong Junwei and the others, with hand grenades in hand, also hurried over but found that the battle had already ended.

"Squad leader, turn on the light."

"Alright."

Dong Junwei took the plastic ball handed to her by Chen Mu and skillfully infused it with energy.

In an instant, light filled the room.

Dong Junwei's ability was currently the most complex.

But making plastic glow was the easiest thing for her to do, far easier than heating metal or making hand grenades. The light emitted by the ping-pong ball-sized plastic sphere was equivalent to a regular 40-watt light bulb, depending on Dong Junwei's level of concentration when using her ability.

As the light came on.

People who were accustomed to darkness subconsciously shielded their eyes.

And the faces of the four individuals sitting on the ground, originally hidden in the darkness, were now fully exposed, showing fear and panic.

Everyone could now see clearly.

These four people were all wearing school uniforms.
