64: Our goal is you

All the way, Su Mianmian felt the rain hitting her rain jacket as if it were hitting her skin, and it hurt.

The water below was not flowing fast, but bodies and trash were visible everywhere.

Su Mianmian was certain that after the floods and snow disaster, an epidemic would definitely follow.

The inflatable boat traveled for a few minutes and then reached its destination.

Su Jinxuan went up first; after he was up, he threw a rope down.

Su Mianmian had to climb the rope to get up.

Shi Xu and Xu Qing had it much easier; the two of them just climbed up directly.

"Are we just leaving this inflatable boat here?"

"Will it be stolen?"

Xu Qing glanced at the inflatable boat below, feeling a bit uneasy.

Shi Xu and Su Mianmian both felt that few people would be up at this time. Seeing this, Xu Qing reluctantly left it there.

The four of them walked upstairs quietly. Su Mianmian walked in the middle, looking at the staircase here, truly feeling how messy the people here were.

With every step, fresh bloodstains could be seen.

Zombie blood and human blood mixed together, looking disgusting.

Su Mianmian was glad she wore shoe covers; otherwise, she wouldn't even want these shoes.

After climbing for about five minutes, the four of them finally reached the thirty-eighth floor.

There were four doors here. Su Mianmian took out the bird's feather, cut her hand, and dripped blood onto it.

In an instant, the blood-stained feather emitted a faint light. It floated up, leading Su Mianmian to the door closest to the window on the right.

Su Mianmian saw where it stopped. She turned her head and glanced at Shi Xu and the others, signaling that this was the place.

Seeing this, Shi Xu and the other two quickly walked over.

Shi Xu released his mental ability, probing inside. There was only one woman inside.

She was sleeping at the moment and seemed to pose no threat.

Shi Xu knew that the person who seemed to pose the least threat was often the greatest threat.

He gave everyone a 'one' hand gesture, indicating there was only one person inside.

Su Mianmian and the others nodded in response.

Xu Qing saw a peephole on the door. He took out a tranquilizer and blew it through the opening.

They waited for a few minutes for the tranquilizer to take effect.

Shi Xu nodded at Su Jinxuan. Su Jinxuan, seeing this, quickly unlocked the door.

Su Mianmian watched their coordinated movements and couldn't help but admire them.

They entered and closed the door behind them.

Xu Qing was about to go and deal with the person, but just as he reached the bedside, a dagger suddenly flew from the bed, cutting his arm.

Xu Qing hissed in pain, and the dagger in his hand dropped, making a 'thud' sound.

Su Mianmian hadn't expected her not to be knocked out by the tranquilizer. It seemed this woman had something special about her.

"Who are you people, and why are you trying to kill me?"

The woman looked at the newcomers with a tired expression. She didn't understand why these strangers wanted to kill her.

She clearly didn't know them.

"Does killing require a reason?"

"We kill if we want to."

Su Jinxuan didn't reveal their true purpose for being there. He looked at the woman with a sinister expression, raised his gun, and was about to shoot.

The woman hadn't expected them to have guns. Her eyes instantly dimmed.

Her current abilities had diminished by at least half due to the death of her spirit beast. Now, she was no match for these people.

What to do?

The woman's mind raced, as if trying to figure out how to escape.

"If you want food, I have some in my kitchen."

"You can take it; I won't move."

"Just spare my life!"

The woman's anger from earlier vanished. She looked at them with a fragile expression and said.

Su Jinxuan held his gun, unmoving.

He just needed to wait for an order from Shi Xu, and he would fire.

"Our target is you."

"As for your food, we'll see about that later!"

Su Mianmian said with a smile, her arms crossed.

How could she not know what this woman was planning?

Wasn't she just trying to get them to spare her life?

She was thinking of conserving her strength, but that was impossible.

Su Mianmian's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the woman's expression, full of killing intent.

The woman sitting on the bed hadn't expected there to be another woman among the intruders. She looked at her with an angry expression and condemned, "We are both women. Why must women make things difficult for women!"

Su Mianmian ignored her moral blackmail. She glanced at Shi Xu, signaling him to quickly state his position.

Shi Xu had been watching the woman on the bed. He subtly frowned.

"Are you Lu Xiao?"

"Huangzhou's daughter?"

Lu Xiao heard someone knew her. She nodded with an expression of finally being saved, excitedly saying, "Yes, yes, yes, I am Lu Xiao, Huangzhou's daughter. You know my father, don't you? Can you tell them to let me go?"

She was so excited that she didn't even recall the tone he had used to ask the question.

Su Mianmian glanced at Shi Xu. Did he intend to let her go?

If he really chose to let her go, Su Mianmian felt he wouldn't be the Shi Xu she knew.

"Let you go?"

"How is that possible?"

"Your father has done quite a few bad things!"

"Don't tell me you don't know."

Shi Xu looked at Lu Xiao with a sarcastic expression. A few wisps of lightning emerged from his fingertips, then quickly extinguished.

In this flickering light and dark atmosphere, Lu Xiao felt very oppressed.

As excited as she had been, after hearing him say that, she now felt utterly cold.

"Water and fire" were the words that best described her current feelings.

"I... how could I know?"

"I'm just the daughter he kept outside; he doesn't care about me at all."

Lu Xiao shook her head with an innocent expression. Su Mianmian watched, thinking she had the potential to be a white lotus.

She turned her head, not wanting to watch her clumsy performance anymore.

"It's precisely because you're not favored that you do bad things for him to gain his attention."

"Why do you think I know your name and appearance? It's because I investigated him."

"Lu Xiao, causing so many young men to lose their lives, I wonder if you feel scared in the dead of night."

Shi Xu looked at Lu Xiao with a sarcastic expression, his words sounding like a curse.

As Lu Xiao listened to his words, she seemed to see many long-unseen faces appearing before her. They were hoarse and grinning, covered in wounds, pouncing on her like demons.

She couldn't help but scream, her voice full of fear.

The screaming sounds of "Ah ah ah" made Su Mianmian's head ache. She looked at Lu Xiao with annoyance, wishing she could find a dirty sock to stuff in her mouth.

"Don't come over!"

"I... I didn't mean to!"

"If you want to blame someone, blame Huangzhou. He's the one who told me how to do it."

"Ah ah ah, I didn't mean to!"

Lu Xiao spoke in terror while waving her hands around.

Her behavior was as if she had gone mad.

Su Mianmian looked at her with suspicion, thinking she was faking it.

From the start, she had felt that Lu Xiao was a woman with strong psychological fortitude, able to remain calm when facing death.

How could she suddenly go mad just like that?

Unless... Su Mianmian turned to glance at Shi Xu, unless he was behind it.

"That's right, it was me."

"I used mental power to intensify her fear, trapping her in the bad deeds she committed in the past."

Shi Xu saw Su Mianmian looking at him and admitted it without hesitation.

There was nothing to deny.

"Then should we still kill her?"

"Or should we just leave her like this?"

Su Jinxuan put away his pistol, looking curious.

Shi Xu turned to look at Su Mianmian, signaling her to decide.

"Kill her!"

"I don't know if she can recover, so it's better to nip it in the bud."

Su Mianmian looked at Lu Xiao with a scrutinizing gaze, speaking indifferently.

Since such a person had committed so many evil deeds, she should go down and atone for them.

Su Jinxuan nodded. He raised his pistol, just about to pull the trigger.

Lu Xiao couldn't bear the torment of these memories and turned her head, slamming it against the wall.

With a "bang," when she fell, there was a huge hole in her forehead.

Blood flowed freely, and bones could vaguely be seen.
