#116 - Chapter 116 Threat? Non-existent
"Someone's coming!"
Dao Ge and the others heard the lookout's shout and, without bothering to finish their meal, quickly stood up and ran towards the door.
Looking through the doorway to the corridor outside.
Sure enough.
Several vehicles appeared downstairs in the residential compound, and a group of armed personnel in full gear and holding firearms were standing in the courtyard.
Whether they noticed their gazes or not, one of the men with sharp eyes looked towards them.
Their eyes met.
Feeling those predatory eyes, Dao Ge and the others felt a chill rising from the soles of their feet and spreading throughout their bodies!
What terrifying people!
"Quick, close and lock the door!"
Dao Ge couldn't help but shout!
The others beside him also snapped back to reality upon hearing this and quickly locked the door of the apartment.
They were the only ones living in this unit in the entire complex, so these people were likely here for them!
Just as they were looking at each other, unsure of what to do next, one of the men broke out in a cold sweat and said in a trembling voice:
"I think I just saw that Lin Zhijie who ran away!"
Hiss!
Hearing him say that, the others seemed to realize that one person's appearance and clothing did indeed resemble the person who had run away earlier!
Damn it!
What's going on!?
Did he find backup so quickly and come back for revenge!?
And who are those people?
Are they reinforcements Lin Zhijie brought?
There are so many of them!
And guns!
Also! Could it be that Li Fei and the others who haven't returned are already…?
The more he thought about it, the more Dao Ge, wearing a thick jacket, couldn't stop the sweat from seeping out of his back. He forced himself to calm down, and then quickly discussed countermeasures with his companions:
"Be careful how you handle things! Don't offend those people! Let's figure out their relationship with Lin Zhijie before deciding what to do! Also, Little Wang, quickly go inside and control his sister! If those people are really helping Lin Zhijie, then his sister is our lifeline!"
The younger brothers next to him nodded quickly after hearing this.
One of the men, called Little Wang, also began to walk towards the room where Lin Runwei was being held.
They also knew the seriousness of the situation. If they didn't handle it well, their lives might end here.
At this moment, no one cared about the aroma of the rice in the pot.
And the beautiful fantasies in their minds had been swept into some unknown corner.
They were only thinking about how to get through this.
————————
The ones who arrived here were undoubtedly Qin Jin and his combat team.
After notifying Li Bowen, they had Little Liu follow Lin Zhijie's directions and rushed over.
As they approached the residential complex, they happened to encounter Li Bowen's team, who had arrived from another direction.
So they joined forces and drove their vehicles in.
The gate barrier was completely useless in the face of the Saber-toothed Tiger's collision.
The six vehicles quickly stopped in the middle of the complex.
As soon as he got out of the car, Qin Jin sensed a gaze coming from somewhere nearby. He turned his head and saw several people furtively watching them from a distance.
He returned a fierce look.
Without even needing to ask Lin Zhijie, he knew that was the location of their target.
"Leave some people to guard the vehicles and defend against possible zombies! Lin Zhijie, lead the way! Everyone else, follow me!"
After giving his orders, he glanced at a certain unit in the building ahead and took the lead.
Faced with opponents without thermal weapons, he was too lazy to deploy any tactics and chose the simplest and most brutal way to crush them directly!
What if the other party threatened him with hostages?
That was not an option.
After getting out of the car, Lin Zhijie also looked in the direction Qin Jin was looking and saw several figures retreating.
He ran towards them, both excited and angry.
Sister, wait for me, I'm coming to save you soon!
The journey was smooth.
They didn't encounter any zombies or living people along the way, as if it had been cleared out, which saved them some effort.
(In the post-apocalyptic world, smart survivors usually search a building during the day and then make their own marks and close the doors to prevent zombies from wandering around at night and hiding in the buildings next to them after dawn, so most survivors' residences are surrounded by closed buildings.)
In less than two minutes.
They arrived at the door of the target apartment and saw the closed door.
Qin Jin stopped Lin Zhijie, who wanted to knock and speak.
In this situation, there was no need to waste time communicating. Anyone inside with a brain wouldn't open the door.
He chose a more direct approach.
He came to the door and glanced at the location of the lock.
His body tilted, his right foot curled slightly, and his muscles contracted and exerted force in an instant!
He kicked hard at the area near the lock!
Boom!
With a roar!
The entire composite door was completely detached from the door frame by Qin Jin's inhuman power and fell into the room!
The surrounding combat team members were already used to it.
Everyone knew that the boss was a monster who was strong beyond belief.
The combat team members who had been prepared on both sides of the door rushed in with submachine guns the moment the door was breached!
"Everyone, put your hands on your heads and squat down! Anyone who dares to move will die!"
A group of combat team members poured in and quickly took control of the entire scene in a few seconds.
Dao Ge and the others, who had been waiting in the living room, were also dumbfounded.
They had thought that these people would come up to find them, and they had prepared to negotiate and communicate through the door.
But they never expected that these people who entered the complex with guns would be so unprincipled!
Too brutal!
As soon as these people came up, just as footsteps appeared at the door, before they had time to observe and think about what to do next, the people outside directly broke down the door!
What the hell!
The door flew off!?
Then a group of wolf-like and tiger-like armed personnel rushed in, roughly piling them to the ground, with cold gun muzzles directly pressed against their heads!
The metallic touch and shiny luster of the gun told them this was not a joke!
Was it really this direct!?
The dumbfounded Dao Ge and the others then saw two other men slowly walking in from outside the door.
One of them was the man with the cold eyes they had seen before.
The other was Lin Zhijie, who had run away in the afternoon!
At this time, Lin Zhijie couldn't care less about being shocked that these people had controlled the scene so quickly. He found Dao Ge, who was wearing a jacket and squatting on the ground with a gun pointed at his head, and quickly asked:
"Where did you hide my sister!?!"
Upon hearing this, Dao Ge also quickly regained his senses. At this time, the only bargaining chip they could use was probably Lin Runwei!
The eyes of several of them couldn't help but glance towards that room.
"Your sister is indeed in our hands! If you want your sister to be okay, you better let us go!"
At this time, Dao Ge could only bite the bullet and use Lin Zhijie's sister as a bargaining chip. Who knew that things would develop to such a point all of a sudden!
Otherwise, how would they have deliberately tricked these two siblings.
Now they weren't asking for much, just hoping to leave here alive.
Qin Jin and Li Bowen followed the subtle gazes of some of them and roughly understood what was going on.
The two exchanged a look, and Li Bowen nodded.
He strode past Dao Ge and the others.
Ignoring their nervously widened eyes, he came to a door on the side of the living room.
He reached out his right hand to the handle, turned it, and opened the door.
