In the bathroom on the first floor of Building B in the conference center, water ran flowed from the tap. Hao Jian sat on the toilet seat, holding her head with both hands, “Sister, I’m a good citizen.”
“What sister?” The woman was displeased. With the handgun which came from Hao Jian on her hand, she opened the magazine and took a look, frowning in disappointment.
“Then. . . Miss?” Hao Jian said.
The system observed like watching a play, “Tsk, tsk. I didn’t expect for the host to have soft side. Too soft.”
“Shut up.” When Hao Jian was scolding the system, she was also scolding the woman in her heart.
Hao Jian didn’t expect to meet an expert. She thought her skill at stealing a knife would be considered great, but she didn’t expect that the gun she hid in her tactical vest would be stolen without her knowing.
“How did you know I have a gun?” Hao Jian wasn’t nervous because she already judged from the opponent’s familiarity with guns that this woman is a professional like a trained guard member. She also threatened Hao Jian who came in the center to gather intelligence just like An Minghui.
The woman looked at her teasingly, “You’re not fat but your waist is a little thick. Others may not be able to tell, but you can’t hide it from me.”
“Then, can you tell who I am?”
The woman frowned, “Where did you get these things?”
“It was given to me. What’s your purpose?”
The woman glared at her, “Do you think I’m playing around with you, answering a question with another question?”
Hao Jian sighed, “Just tell me what is the purpose of a young lady like you. If we delay here any more, the people outside will find it strange.”
The woman took a look outside, “I remember you, you\re the one who drove away at the intersection on citizen’s road yesterday.”
Hao Jian quickly understood, “Are you one of the people who drove the motorcycle yesterday?!”
The woman didn’t know if it was possible, “I think you don’t even know where the bathroom is, yet you’re her. Did someone help you get in?”
Hao Jian actually doesn’t trust her 100%. Who knows if she’s a member if ‘Wugui’ and came here to test her if she’s one of the guard members or not.
“You’re quite alert. My name is Chen Zhen, a member of the security team that was once stationed in Civic Park.”
“My name is Hao Jian. I’m just an ordinary citizen. Can I ask, what’s the situation here?”
Chen Zhen suddenly made motion to silence her. As soon as Hao Jian closed her mouth, she heard the door open and what sounded like footsteps. Chen Zhen opened the door of the cubicle and took a quiet look before walking out. Hao Jian was affected by the sound of the water and heard nothing.
Suddenly, Chen Zhen pushed the cubicle door open again but was now wearing a tactical vest with some messy things hanging on it.
Hao Jian stretched out her head and saw a woman lying on the ground with a twisted neck. Her chest wasn’t moving either.
After tidying her clothes, Chen Zhen glanced at Hao Jian, “Don’t look. It’s dead.”
“. . .”
“These are all believers who have been brainwashed. I don’t know how much of my teammates’ blood has been stained in her hands.”
Hao Jian felt that she was not far from completing the hidden mission. At this time, Chen Zhen didn’t have much time to talk to Hao Jian, “I’m leaving. You’ll have to find a way to make it through when you go back.”
Her cold-blooded temperament made Hao Jian’s scalp go numb, “You took my gun away. What should I use to protect myself?”
“You were able to sneak in. Can’t you be resourceful?”
Hao Jian then asked, “Then about what happened here, can you tell me?”
Chen Zhen sighed then answered, “It’s complicated to say, so I’ll make it short. The group of people outside is a cult organization called ‘Wugui’. I won’t tell you the origin of this organization, you should be able to get some information through what happened earlier. Under the banner of God condemning sins, they actually wanted to take advantage of the chaos and become a separate force and oppose the justice camp.
Their methods are also very cruel. In order to prevent the cry of children and babies from attracting zombies, they kill all babies up to 8 years old and drown newborn babies, not long after they’re born. In addition, they dislike that the elderly were slow in moving and consume too much food, so they sent them to see their ‘God’ one after another.”
Hao Jian’s heart sank. No wonder she didn’t see any old people or child in the hall.
“They were active even before the zombies appeared, but they acted secretly so the officials never discovered them. Later, they even spread rumors and caused panic when the zombies appeared, attracting a large number of blind followers.
These believers have been thoroughly brainwashed. In order to survive, they start with their loved ones and lurked among the refugees. They then took advantage of the vulnerability of the refugees and preached ‘Wugui’ philosophies. They also preached rumors to make the people who don’t know the truth attack us.
We were already exhausted enough, guarding against the growing number of zombies near the Citizen Park. Those people used our rule that we don’t attack ordinary citizens to break through our line of defense. Many people died, either from their hands or were killed by zombies.
Traitors also appeared in the conference center, so back up didn’t receive any warning. A few of my teammates and I were not there at the time, so we immediately went to the conference center to check on them after receiving the news, but a large number of zombies gathered in the conference center. My teammate and I drove the motorcycle to attract the zombies away.
Unexpectedly. . . When we hot out of the trap and rushed back to the conference center, we saw corpses all over the field. Some were the believers of ‘Wugui’, but most of them were my teammates.”
After Chen Zhen recounted what happened during the past two days, two lines of tears rolled down her eyes. She opened her eyes that emitted killing intent, “They used ordinary people to disarm my teammates and killed them to take their equipment away. They left the bodies of my teammates just lying on the square, exposed to the sun. . . I will never let these people go!”
“I found out that the commander-in-chief are still alive, and I’m going to save them.” Chen Zhen said before leaving. Hao Jian clenched her fists. She couldn’t forgive these sinful people!
However, the system still did not give any prompt about whether she completed the hidden mission, so she wondered on whether she still had to find An Minghui, ensure his safety and pass the news about what’s going on for the mission to be considered complete?
The reason why ‘Wugui’ can have such a great ability is that apart from using the people’s vulnerability to brainwash them, their forces have probably infiltrated all parts of the country.
She suddenly understood what those people meant by ‘Fragrance Master.’ He’s presumably the boss who led the planning of this incident. In Martial Arts, Xiangzhu can only be regarded as a small boss, so ‘Wugui’ must be a huge cult organization.
She also understood why this task was a hidden mission. If she didn’t come to figure out what was going on, then she would most likely encounter this organization elsewhere, and because she didn’t know anything about it, she would be very passive towards the cult.
After sorting out the information, Hao Jian looked at herself in the mirror. She thought about something and slammed her head against the mirror.
The mirror shattered, her forehead was also injured. Blood ran from her wound that quickly dripped down to her chin and into her clothes.
After a while, she shook her head and cleared her consciousness before walking to the hall. She opened the door and the man guarding it was shocked. He fixed his eyes and asked, “What happened?”
“There was a guilty person. She stunned me and snatched my knife before running away. I just woke up. Go and catch her!” Hao Jian was holding her forehead, looking like so much in pain.
The man said angrily to the other man, “They really don’t give up in coming back to save people. Go after them!”
After his companion left, he turned to Hao Jian and said disdainfully, “Women are troublesome. They don’t have any power. Because of this, they let people run away!”
He asked Lian Ru Ning to take care of Hao Jian. When Lian Ru Ning saw Hao Jian, who was covered in blood, her heart was a little flustered. She immediately asked Hao Jian to rest her on her body while she covered Hao Jian’s wound with her hand, “What did you do? You’re injured. Are there bandages and hemostatic drugs. . .”
The man’s ears became calloused by her nagging, “There are some in the infirmary. Please, bring her over there!”
Lian Ru Ning noticed that Hao Jian squeezed her hand, so she helped Hao Jian go out.
Although they also met a lot of people this time, they didn’t pay attention to them, because many of them also had color on their bodies. They also all went to the same place, so they guessed that they might end up in the infirmary if they follow.
But Hao Jian didn’t plan to go to the infirmary. They stopped at a corner of the wall.
“How are you?” Lian Ru Ning asked hurriedly.
Hao Jian waved her hand and took out a small can of styptic powder in the pocked of the tactical vest, “I have medicine.”
She bought this from the mall before she hit her head. Although there was only a small can that’s the size of a thumb, it still cost her 30 points, which was 10 points more expensive than Xin Ting’s medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis!
However, this product comes with a few gauze and bandages, so she doesn’t need to look for some cloth to wrap her wound.
When Lian Ru Ning bandaged her, Hao Jian’s appearance kept tugging her heart. This was the first time she had seen her injured since she first met her, but she was fortunate that it was not caused by a zombie.
“Who was it that gave you such a cruel hand?”
“It was An Minghui’s teammate, but it wasn’t her who did this. I did this to myself to conceal from the people of this organization.”
Lian Ru Ning looked at her in astonishment. After a while, she said, “You are so cruel to yourself. Aren’t you afraid of a concussion, or you losing consciousness, or worse, become stupid?!”
Hao Jian smiled, “I was always injured before so I know the severity and their consequences. Don’t look at my injury just because it’s bleeding so much. It only looks bad because there are many capillaries on the face. In fact, I didn’t have a concussion or damage my brain. These wounds are because of the glass that cut my skin.”
Lian Ru Ning glared at her thinking why she still had the nerve to laugh at this moment! But there was no use to blame her. After a long silence, she returned the army knife that Hao Jian secretly gave her before leaving and said. “We’re out now, what should we do next?”
“I have to find An Minghui.”
Although Lian Ru Ning was puzzled, she didn’t ask too much. She said, “But the ‘Wugui’ people are looking for them everywhere. Can you find him?”
Hao Jian pondered for a moment and said, “Do you still remember the ‘Xiangzhu’ that they mentioned?”
Lian Ru Ning nodded.
“As far as I know, the commander-in-chief of the guard members has fallen into their hands. They should be using him for something so I doubt they would kill him, but they should be torturing him. An Minghui’s goal is bound to be him, so as long as we find the location of the commander-in-chief, we should be able to see them.”
“But this is such a big place and there are so many meeting rooms and multi-function rooms. How do you know where they are?”
“If you were the Xiangzhu, what would you do when you heard that someone broke in?”
Lian Ru Ning understood in an instant, “He should be personally guarding the important hostages, and at the same time sending a large number of people to guard around.”
Hao Jian smiled, “Yes. The place where there’s the most guards should be the place!”
In the bathroom on the first floor of Building B in the conference center, water ran flowed from the tap. Hao Jian sat on the toilet seat, holding her head with both hands, “Sister, I’m a good citizen.”
“What sister?” The woman was displeased. With the handgun which came from Hao Jian on her hand, she opened the magazine and took a look, frowning in disappointment.
