“Bro, bro, Team A has brought Specialist Li and his family out.”
“Get them on the bus. What’s the next location?” The man glanced down at his watch.
The baby-faced man tapped his phone to check. “Next is Shunfengli Residential Area. Normally it takes about fifteen minutes to get there.”
A coach bus pulled up steadily beside them. The driver opened the door, jumped out into the rain, and wiped his face. “Boss, Specialist Li and his family are all on board. They’re safe.”
“Mm, let’s go.” The man stepped on a cigarette butt that hadn’t fully burned out.
Just as he turned to board the bus, he heard the baby-faced man exclaiming beside him, “Wow, wow! Oh my god, who is that? Isn’t that the girl from earlier?”
Everyone sitting on the bus had rushed to the left-side windows to watch, their faces pale with terror as they cried out, “Drive! Drive away now!”
Through the curtain of rain at the residential area’s entrance, a small car sped out.
Following behind it was a large, staggering, swaying horde of rotting corpses. They were all trailing the small car, their speed not particularly fast, but their numbers were shockingly vast.
At a glance, there were at least a hundred rotting corpses slowly chasing after the small car.
Xie Ning drove her car up beside the seven-seater van and stopped.
Song Kexin was completely bewildered.
Without wasting words, Xie Ning simply ushered her out of the car, grabbed their luggage, and moved it to the nearby van.
The baby-faced man ran over to her through the rain. “Miss, what are you doing? Hurry up and leave!”
Xie Ning walked around, opened the fuel tank cap, and inserted a plastic tube into the fuel pipe.
“Miss, you… you’re trying to siphon the gas?” The baby-faced man glanced at the horde of rotting corpses advancing toward the entrance through the misty rain.
“Run for your life!” You’re way too calm about this!
“Are you an Ability User?”
“Huh?” The baby-faced man’s voice cut off abruptly.
“Can you lift it?” Xie Ning pointed at the beat-up car, swiftly and expertly siphoning half the fuel into a jerry can.
“I, I can’t. My brother probably could.”
As he spoke, his brother had already walked over. Through the hazy rain, the baby-faced man sensed his brother’s expression was somewhat grim.
Xie Ning’s head was still somewhat dizzy, and her vision was tinged with a hazy red.
“You’re not in a condition to drive,” the man said gravely. “Come with us.”
“Thanks, I appreciate the offer. But it looks like you have urgent business to attend to, so I won’t trouble you.”
Xie Ning looked up and saw the horde of rotting corpses gathering in greater numbers ahead, reaching the residential entrance and preparing to surge out.
“Help me.” Without hesitation, Xie Ning ignited the beat-up car. The baby-faced man gaped, speechless, but his brother reacted swiftly, kicking out with his leg.
The small car, now blazing fiercely, was sent flying toward the residential entrance by the man’s kick, crashing heavily into the horde of rotting corpses.
Flames spread and raged, countless rotting corpses crushed beneath the car, burning to ashes.
Both the baby-faced man and Song Kexin instinctively flinched backward.
Through the thick curtain of flames, Xie Ning picked up the jerry can from the ground, turned, and gave the man a deep look.
Then she quickly got into the van, slammed the accelerator to the floor, and drove off with Song Kexin in the seven-seater van, swiftly disappearing from the sight of the baby-faced man and his brother.
The baby-faced man’s mouth hung open. “I, oh my god. That girl is just too badass!”
Without a second thought, she set the car on fire. If his brother hadn’t reacted quickly, she might have taken them all out with it…
The man raised an eyebrow, his refined features tinged with a cool detachment under the flickering firelight.
