Chapter 393: Bajie by the Window
Sister Lan, are you hungry? I see there are snacks in that little shop over there. How about I go buy some for you?
Sister Lan, that outfit you’re wearing looks really good. With your temperament, it completely outshines those stars on TV by a long shot!
Oh, Sister Lan, your skin is so nice! Honestly, the maids at my house can’t compare to you at all!
Sister Lan, do you usually have an interest in Rolex watches?
…
Baili Pangpang leaned close to Jialan, taking one of the dozen Rolex watches from his arm and measuring it against Jialan’s wrist, shaking his head repeatedly.
No way… This Rolex doesn’t suit you at all; let’s look at something else!
As he spoke, Baili Pangpang casually tossed the Rolex into the nearby lake, creating a splash and making it disappear…
Cao Yuan: …
Baili Pangpang caught a glimpse of Cao Yuan watching him and immediately put his hands on his hips, asking defiantly, “Old Cao, why are you sneaking a peek at me?”
Cao Yuan pondered for a moment, “I was thinking, how many days it would take for you to run the Baili Group into bankruptcy after you take over…”
?
Baili Pangpang was about to retort when the gray mouse walking ahead of the three suddenly trembled, as if it had discovered something, and quickly scurried off in a certain direction.
The three exchanged glances, a hint of joy appearing on their faces, and they hurriedly followed.
…
Gusu City.
In a certain building, twenty-third floor.
This building is almost entirely filled with small business offices. Once bustling with white-collar workers and bosses, it now stands empty.
The dark night enveloped the sky, and the neon lights from the Southern Gate across the street shone through the large floor-to-ceiling windows into the corridor, where the lights flickered on and off. In a regular internet company’s office, a blood-soaked man lay weakly in the corner.
His right leg had completely petrified, the lower part of his calf shattered and missing, with the severed edge mixed with fresh blood that had already congealed.
Captain Qin…
By the floor-to-ceiling window, a pale-faced Molly shifted her gaze from the road outside, using her katana to support herself as she slowly moved toward Qin Kai.
I saw Sun Luan enter this building.
Beside her, Qin Kai, lying on the ground, smiled helplessly. That guy can smell blood from a distance; even if he’s controlled by [Bell Crand], his instincts remain. It’s only a matter of time before he finds us…
“Captain.” Molly reached his side and said seriously, “We can’t stay here any longer. I’ll carry you out.”
Qin Kai shook his head. “No, as long as I’m here, Sun Luan will definitely come looking for me… You should leave. With the Cleansing Charm protecting you, this mental pollution won’t affect you. Hurry and get out of this fog and tell the higher-ups… We absolutely cannot let the [Phoenix] team in!”
The entire [Phoenix] team has a trace of phoenix blood flowing in their bodies, and those two have cursed items specifically targeting this bloodline. If they come in, it will be truly dangerous!
Molly frowned and said, “But if I leave, Sun Luan will kill you!”
She gritted her teeth, as if making a firm decision, and used her katana to support herself as she walked toward the office exit.
“I’ll knock out Sun Luan first to ensure your safety, then head out of the fog!”
“You’ve already been injured internally by Zheng Zheng’s sound waves; you can’t win against Sun Luan.” Qin Kai lowered his voice, speaking seriously. “Listen to me, don’t worry about me… I’m just an ordinary team leader. Compared to a whole special team, which is more important? Don’t you know in your heart?”
Molly took step after step toward the office exit. Hearing Qin Kai’s voice, her lips pressed together, her eyes showing a stubborn look.
“So what? You’re our captain; I can’t let you die at the hands of your own team! Otherwise, when Sun Luan wakes up, he’ll definitely commit suicide to atone for his sins…”
The previous captain of the Gusu City team has already sacrificed too much. This time… I can’t let you repeat the same mistake!
Upon hearing this, Qin Kai’s eyes trembled slightly, as if recalling something, a hint of sorrow appearing on his face.
Captain Han Shaoyun…
The lights above flickered, and Molly pushed open the glass door of the office, walking down the long corridor. Behind her, a small gray mouse quietly followed.
Ding, ding, ding… Ding!
Twenty-third floor, arrived.
The emotionless mechanical voice came from the elevator shaft, and Molly’s body suddenly paused.
The elevator door beside her slowly opened, revealing a young man in a dark red cloak standing behind it, holding a blood-colored straight knife, his vacant eyes staring ahead.
He sniffed the air, stepped out of the elevator, and his hollow gaze fell on Molly beside the elevator. The straight knife in his hand slowly rose, a strange blood-red spreading from his neck to his entire body.
The Ancient God Church… all… must die… his throat emitted a series of whispers.
Sun Luan! Molly frowned tightly and shouted loudly, her voice echoing in the empty room. “Wake up! We’re not the Ancient God Church! We’re your teammates!”
Now transformed into a blood-soaked figure, Sun Luan slightly raised his head, staring at Molly before slowly speaking:
… Die!
Whoosh—!
Sun Luan’s figure flickered, leaving a blood-red afterimage in the air, and in an instant, he appeared in front of Molly, the straight knife slashing toward her throat like lightning!
Molly swung her katana, the blade vibrating violently at a mysterious frequency, meeting Sun Luan’s straight knife!
Boom—!!
A terrifying shockwave shattered all the floor tiles around Molly, and following the direction of her blade, a gust of air surged, shattering the floor-to-ceiling windows several meters away, sharp glass shards falling from the height, disappearing without a trace.
However, along that path, Sun Luan’s figure had long since vanished.
In the next moment, the blood-colored Sun Luan silently appeared behind Molly.
Molly seemed to anticipate his movement, spinning around like lightning, positioning her katana horizontally in front of her chest while quickly retreating.
Yet Sun Luan’s blood-colored straight knife seemed to turn liquid, eerily passing through the katana’s blade and slashing toward Molly’s chest!
But with her internal injuries, Molly’s speed was still a fraction too slow. The blood-colored straight knife passed through the katana and solidified, lightly striking her shoulder blade, leaving a long blood mark.
Molly staggered back a few steps, using her katana to support herself, her face paler than before, a trickle of bright red blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.
That last strike had aggravated some of her injuries; she could feel her body gradually weakening…
Sun Luan… Molly gritted her teeth, her eyes fixed on Sun Luan, anger flashing in them.
Sun Luan merely held his knife, moving forward step by step like a zombie.
He raised the blood-colored straight knife high.
Bang—!!
A blinding golden light erupted from the shattered floor-to-ceiling window behind Molly, flying past her body and directly blocking in front of her.
Molly was taken aback and turned to look.
In the hazy night, a man wearing a pig mask stood by the window, his back to the raging wind, holding a long sword, slowly walking toward her.
