#804 - Chapter 804 This Account Must Be Settled
This night was destined to be a sleepless one for many.
The Fire Blade Gang members, who had chased their targets for half a day without success, returned to their headquarters only to find a chaotic scene.
Their leader had inexplicably died in his own room!
And all the captured prisoners had disappeared!
This was a shocking message that threw the entire Fire Blade Gang into turmoil.
For a time, the remaining squad leaders were doing everything they could to seize control of the Fire Blade Gang.
With the leader's throne, they could be the first to enjoy the captured prey and taste the best and most delicious food.
No one was willing to give up this kind of power.
They actually didn't have time to pay attention to the missing prisoners and the prey they had chased today.
Seizing power was the priority; other things could be discussed later.
This made it easier for Team Leader Li and the others to escape.
The night was filled with darkness.
A building in the outskirts of Stone Platform City.
Several zombies that had come out to work lingered outside the first floor, seemingly attracted by some scent inside the three-story building.
"Puff!"
With a muffled sound, one of the zombies was struck in the head by a steel rod and collapsed on the spot.
On the second floor, several figures were carefully cleaning up the zombies that had been attracted by the smell.
It was Li Bowen and the others who had escaped from the Fire Blade Gang's headquarters and found a place to spend the night after riding their motorcycles for a certain distance!
After easily dealing with these uninvited guests who had been hiding somewhere before being attracted by the darkness, they returned to their residence on the second floor after confirming that nothing was left behind.
The windows on the second floor had been blocked with obstacles, and a bonfire had been lit in the room at some point.
The warm firelight dispelled the cold of the night, making the room temperature much more pleasant.
The weather had been cooling down recently, and the outdoor temperature at night had dropped to minus seven or eight degrees Celsius.
Fortunately, it hadn't snowed recently, otherwise today's scene might not have happened so smoothly.
"Liu Qing! Thank you for saving us! Thank you so much!"
Finally arriving at a relatively safe place, Xiao Fei and Xiao Yun kept expressing their gratitude to their former partner.
Liu Qing naturally chuckled and repeatedly said it was nothing.
He didn't expect to meet his old friends in this place.
He was from Southern Fujian, but after graduating from university, he went to work in Guangnan Province and, by chance, joined the newly established Green Source Food Factory.
Before that, he had lived in other parts of Fujian Province before attending junior high and high school.
As a result, he met his old friends again in this situation today.
"We left in a hurry, and we don't have any food to fill our stomachs for the time being. Let's rest early tonight, and we'll leave this city immediately after we meet up with Yao Lei tomorrow!"
Li Bowen added a few pieces of firewood to the bonfire, gave a few instructions, and then ignored the others and went to sleep with his clothes on.
He had been exerting himself multiple times today, and the injury on his back had not fully recovered. The danger had not been completely eliminated, so he had to seize the time to rest and recuperate his body in order to deal with any situations that might arise.
The Fire Blade Gang's continued pursuit was one thing, and the force from Fuhai City was also a threat.
Even if he had a few pistols in his hand now, he probably wouldn't be a match for those people.
For now, it was better to focus on escaping first, and then think about revenge after returning to the base or finding more companions.
He had remembered all these enemies, and none of them would be able to escape in the future!!
Seeing the captain say this, Liu Qing stopped chatting with Xiao Fei and Xiao Yun. He would continue to take them with him on the escape tomorrow, and they could chat later. Moreover, besides Xiao Yun, he himself, including Xiao Fei and Qin Wanjian, were injured and should rest first.
The night watch was simple. With Xiao Yun, a human-shaped radar, he could easily hear sounds within a range of nearly a hundred meters around him.
As long as there were no sudden abnormalities, she could handle it alone.
The night passed without incident.
————————
On the other side of Stone Platform City.
Yao Lei also found an abandoned roadside building on the outskirts of the city before dark and hid inside.
Being alone, she didn't have a strong human scent, and basically didn't attract many nocturnal zombies.
This made it easy for her to spend the night safely.
The next day.
When the sky was still dimly lit, Team Leader Li and the five others woke up early to prepare for their journey.
Fortunately, they had referred to the technology of the former A-San country, so that a mere motorcycle could actually seat five people, and it barely moved forward with dragging and pulling.
After nearly half an hour's journey, they finally arrived at the location they had agreed upon yesterday.
This was a gas station they had passed by before.
"Captain!!!?"
Yao Lei had arrived here ten minutes early to hide and wait. When she saw a motorcycle full of people riding like acrobats, and saw the man sitting in the front, she shouted out in confirmation!
The captain is back!
And Liu Qing's figure behind him!
But...
Who are the others behind them??
Wait!!?
Isn't that Xiao Fei, Qin Wanjian, and Xiao Yun!?
Why are they here too!!?
Yao Lei was stunned for a moment, and then recovered after Team Leader Li simply said a word after meeting.
"Is the previous car still there? Let's change cars and leave this city quickly! We can talk about what happened later on the road!"
Yao Lei certainly had no objections. This was not a place to stay for long. She didn't know if the Fire Blade Gang would continue to chase them, so she had to escape to a greater distance first.
She quickly drove over the large off-road vehicle that had been tested yesterday, let everyone get in the car, and finally even the fuel of the motorcycle was not wasted and was extracted and added to the off-road vehicle before quickly starting and leaving.
——————————
"After we left Yonghua City, we kept heading south. After entering Stone Platform City, we encountered several flat tire accidents. At that time, we knew that something was wrong. Sure enough, it wasn't long before a group of people rushed over and started fighting with us. As a result, we were caught by them."
"Then Team Leader Li rescued us from the Fire Blade Gang's headquarters and we spent the night outside!"
Driving on the road, this time it was Liu Qing driving, and the others were sitting in the car taking the opportunity to chat.
Brother Qin was introducing the situation before the trio was captured.
"I didn't expect you to choose to go in this direction too. I also couldn't guess that there would be such a group of survivors in Stone Platform City."
Yao Lei sighed.
She also couldn't imagine that someone would use a city as a hunting ground to hunt down their own kind.
If she hadn't encountered them and rushed out, she would probably have been taken advantage of by those villains, right?
"Xiao Zhou and Xiao Gang both died in their hands! We must settle this debt with them in the future!"
Liu Qing said this sentence while driving, gritting his teeth.
He would not forget that two other companions who had parachuted down and survived were killed by the Fire Blade Gang.
Sooner or later, he would settle the score with them!
