75: Bring Wang Feng back

Ah.

Performance... performance... Tao Ruiyu was like a puppet.

He slowly turned around and looked at Shen Aoxue across the table.

The aura radiating from Shen Aoxue was extremely chilling.

“Tao Ruiyu.”

“I’ll gladly accept these eighty stars.”

“While my account is settled, you still owe Qiu Churou fifty stars.”

“What are you going to do about that?”

Tao Ruiyu's mind went completely blank.

He slowly looked toward Qiu Churou.

His voice trembled.

“I... I’ll pay you back later!”

“Don't worry! I... I am the Minister of the Guard Department! I can earn the Performance Points!”

However, Qiu Churou's gaze was suffused with a layer of frost.

“Tao Ruiyu.”

“You owe me fifty stars. What exactly do you intend to use to pay me back?”

“I... I...” Tao Ruiyu had never been as terrified as he was at this moment.

“Tao Ruiyu.” Qiu Churou's tone grew even colder.

“Not only do you have zero performance, but you also owe me fifty stars.”

“You can no longer keep your position as Minister of the Guard Department.”

“Furthermore, because your performance is negative, I will be applying for Arbitration from the Train Crew.”

“Tao Ruiyu, you’re finished.”

It wasn't until Qiu Churou said those words...

...that Tao Ruiyu realized Qiu Churou's sudden betrayal was also part of the plan.

From the very beginning.

He was the target being hunted!

From the very beginning... everything that happened!

It was all part of the damn plan!

Everything, down to the last detail, was within Wang Feng's calculations!

Negative performance, and negative fifty at that!

Only a dead end awaited Tao Ruiyu.

The position of Minister of the Guard Department would also be directly transferred to Qiu Churou because of the debt owed.

“Haha! Qiu Churou! Shen Aoxue!” Tao Ruiyu laughed in extreme despair.

“You set me up! You want to kill me! Hahaha! Hahahahaha!”

“But Qiu Churou! Don't think you're getting off easy either!”

“You don't have any performance left either! I’m going to apply for Arbitration against you!”

Qiu Churou was amused.

Shen Aoxue also burst out laughing.

“Deputy Chief Shen, can you return the Points I lent you earlier?”

“Heh, of course.”

And so.

Shen Aoxue handed ten stars to Qiu Churou.

“Principal plus interest, ten stars.”

Tao Ruiyu froze.

“So you... you were in league together from the start to destroy me!”

“But... haha! I won't be lonely on the road to the Yellow Springs!”

“I have Wang Feng to die with me!!!”

However, all that met him...

...were the cold gazes of Qiu Churou and Shen Aoxue.

“Whether Wang Feng dies is not yet certain.”

“But you will definitely die.”

“You should worry about yourself first.”

“Gao Jianbo!”

“Here!” Gao Jianbo straightened his back.

“Take Tao Ruiyu away! I want to apply for Arbitration!”

Several Guards walked over and hauled Tao Ruiyu up.

“You have no right to take me away!”

“Heh, sorry about that, Tao Ruiyu,” Gao Jianbo sneered.

“You are no longer the Minister of the Guard Department.”

“Once the result of the Train Crew's Arbitration comes down, that will be the moment you vanish.”

“You have no right to take me away!!!” Tao Ruiyu still tried to break free using force.

However, all the deputy car commanders present stepped forward.

“Tao Ruiyu, accept your loss.”

“Die with some dignity; at least leave yourself a bit of a reputation.”

“Don't make such an ugly scene. In the end, you'll still be dead, but you'll have become our laughingstock.”

Only then...

...did Tao Ruiyu finally collapse dejectedly to the ground.

He was strong.

But with so many deputy car commanders present...

...he couldn't win.

“Heh... Hahaha!!!”

Tao Ruiyu was taken away.

Leaving behind only a string of desperate laughter.

“Wang Feng!!! You’ll die a horrible death!”

“You just wait!!! Even if I go to hell, I will curse you!!!”

Shen Aoxue gave a broad wave of her hand.

“The reason I dealt with Tao Ruiyu was because he was insolent toward me!”

“Now that Tao Ruiyu's performance has been cleared, the grudge between us ends here!!”

“As for the candidate for Minister of the Guard Department, I believe a perfect result will be given after the Train Crew makes their ruling!”

“And regarding Wang Feng.”

“Tao Ruiyu replaced all the Attendants around him.”

“Yet he was still able to win the instance with such a massive advantage. This is sufficient proof that he did not privately take favors from the Attendants!”

“This matter ends here!”

“All those held in confinement for investigation are to be released immediately!”

All the Police Officers stood at attention.

“Understood!”

Afterward.

Shen Aoxue strode away.

Only after confirming no one was around did she finally lean against a wall, clutching her chest tightly.

Her face was filled with pain.

At the thought of Wang Feng, her heart felt like it was being pierced by a thousand needles.

Dai Yingying!

You must be fast! Hurry and save Wang Feng!!!

After leaving the public area, Qiu Churou strode quickly to Dai Yingying's private room.

At this moment, Dai Yingying had long been sobbing uncontrollably.

Qiu Churou's expression was also very grim.

With a clattering sound...

...the confinement room door opened.

“Dai Yingying.”

“I'll leave what comes next to you.”

Dai Yingying didn't say a word.

She rushed out like a bolt of lightning.

Qiu Churou watched Dai Yingying's departing back, her fists clenched tight.

Bring Wang Feng back!

You must be fast!

In the instance, those three Reaper Zombies will hunt Wang Feng down!

Dai Yingying naturally didn't need anyone to remind her.

At this moment, a monstrous rage was bottled up in her heart.

She was going to vent all that fury onto those three Reaper Zombies!!!

She would bring Wang Feng back!

Before the instance refreshed!

...The instance ended.

Zhang Yuqi vanished amidst the roaring.

The live stream cut off, leaving Wang Feng completely trapped in the instance.

He could hear the footsteps of the Reaper Zombies.

A rumbling sound, drawing closer to his position.

He couldn't stay any longer!

He had to leave as quickly as possible!

“Roar roar roar—!!!” The first Reaper Zombie had already appeared!

Wang Feng took a deep breath, raised his shield, and pulled out his dagger.

At the same time!

The long-silent system rang out once more!

“Bond Item detected!”

“Please follow the system guidance to find the item!”

“After finding the item, you will receive DP Coins (Blue) x10, a dp space upgrade, and a new Bond Upgrade Character!”

“The currently unlockable Bond Upgrade Character is Shen Aoxue!”

“Please increase the target's Favorability in a timely manner until it is maxed out!”

“Once maxed out, you can enter the Exclusive Quest. Complete the quest to perform the Bond Upgrade!”

Wang Feng's heart jolted.

The system?!

And there's a Bond Item?!

The Reaper Zombie had already charged forward with a roar.

Wang Feng glanced at the location indicated by the system and immediately closed the interface.

He charged forward with his shield raised!

“Roar roar roar roar roar—!!!”

The pressure from the Reaper Zombie was too intense!

Every step it took shook the ground!

But Wang Feng didn't feel the slightest bit of fear!

He wanted to live!

He would definitely survive!!!

The Reaper Zombie rushed in front of him and swung its right hand violently!

Wang Feng used his shield to perform a fierce upward strike from below!

He deflected the Reaper Zombie's attack, but his own arm was jarred into a numb tingle!

“Hiss—”

“As expected of a Reaper Zombie! What incredible strength!!!”

Wang Feng didn't dare to be careless. He aimed his dagger at the Reaper Zombie's arm and slashed.

“Skreeeeee—”

The sound of metal grinding exploded!

Where the dagger rubbed against the Exoskeleton, a series of Sparks lit up!

The attack was ineffective!

But Wang Feng hadn't intended to fight it to the death at all!

Taking advantage of the gap in the opponent's attack, he performed a sliding tackle to get past!

Without looking back, he sprayed a burst of bullets with his submachine gun!

Then, he sprinted!

The Reaper Zombie's speed was extremely fast!

Even though Wang Feng's Gene Enhancement had reached 2.59, he still couldn't outrun the Reaper Zombie!

It was just too fast!

Therefore, Wang Feng changed his tactics and began to use his own agility and the surrounding environment to constantly dodge and weave.

His powerful Gene Enhancement allowed him to evade the Reaper Zombie's pursuit several times.

Wang Feng sprinted all the way toward the direction of the Bond Item in his memory.

However, before he could even get halfway there, a second Reaper Zombie stepped out from a corner!

Two Reaper Zombies had him surrounded from front and back!

“Tsk!”

“They really don't give a person a moment to catch their breath!”
