Stronghold 73's Houguan Lake was a famous villa area. Ren Xiaosu had originally planned on taking Zhou Yingxue to Houguan Lake immediately, but Zhou Yingxue insisted that she was hungry.
Zhou Yingxue said patiently, "Don't you think so? After we rescue Luo Lan, we still have to plan our retreat route. After all, this is the Zhou Clan's territory. Even if we escape from Houguan Lake, we'll still be in their stronghold. Let me eat something, and I'll come up with a detailed retreat plan while I'm eating. "
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment. "Alright."
It had to be said that sometimes, Zhou Yingxue could really play a very good supporting role. For example, tracking, getting into the stronghold easier, or carrying a recording pen and other equipment. It would be great if she didn't just eat melon seeds all the time.
Moreover, Zhou Yingxue loved money even more than he did.
As Zhou Yingxue ate her hot-dry noodles, she took out her cell phone and said, "The reward for killing Zhou Xilong has been received. Wu Tong's cell phone has also been unlocked, so we can check how much money is in his account when we're free. I wonder if the others have received their cell phones as well."
Just now, Ren Xiaosu had only wanted to ask some questions when he entered the room. However, Zhou Yingxue had already gotten hold of the other party's account.
Ren Xiaosu asked, "Wu Tong is mainly active in the Zhou Clan. Do we still have to withdraw the money from this account from the Zhou Clan's bank?"
This would increase the chances of them being exposed.
"There's no need." Zhou Yingxue shook her head. "We'll withdraw the money when we get back to the black market. The Zhou, Kong, and Wang Clan's banks are located there, and there aren't even any surveillance cameras."
"Don't listen to them. They don't even have surveillance cameras." Ren Xiaosu curled his lips. "The consortiums are all liars. There must be hidden cameras somewhere. They set up a bank in the black market. How could they not want to know who the person who withdrew the money is? This is very important intelligence data."
Zhou Yingxue nodded. "That's true. This Wu Tong is also a veteran A-rank hitman. I believe he must have a lot of money in his account."
"Yes."
"I'm going to the washroom." Zhou Yingxue looked at Ren Xiaosu with an inquiring look.
"Go."
In the end, Zhou Yingxue was gone for more than 20 minutes. Ren Xiaosu sat quietly in the restaurant and thought about something. Zhou Yingxue should have run away. The reward this time was very generous, and she even got Wu Tong's account. If Zhou Yingxue wanted to run away, she had enough reason to do so.
Ren Xiaosu sighed. It looked like he would have to find another candidate to join the Anjing House.
He did not go after Zhou Yingxue. On one hand, she had been very obedient during this period. On the other hand, Zhou Yingxue's mother was seriously ill, and she really needed the money. Due to various factors, Ren Xiaosu felt there was no need to kill Zhou Yingxue.
She was just a normal girl in this chaotic era.
But at this moment, a voice interrupted Ren Xiaosu's thoughts. "Master, let's go."
Ren Xiaosu looked up at Zhou Yingxue in surprise. "Why aren't you running away?"
Zhou Yingxue thought for a moment and said, "Aren't you going to hunt me down?"
"Why would I hunt you down?" Ren Xiaosu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He stood up and said, "But I'm curious why you didn't run away when this amount of money should've been enough to tempt you, right?"
Zhou Yingxue thought for a moment and said, "I did think about running away, but I can't survive in this world by myself. So since I've managed to cozy up to someone, I'll have to cling onto him tightly."
Actually, Zhou Yingxue was indeed preparing to run away just now. She waited in the bathroom for a while as she wanted to see Ren Xiaosu's reaction and see if he would spare no effort to hunt her down.
But when Zhou Yingxue saw that Ren Xiaosu had no intention of moving at all, for some reason, she turned around and came back.
It wasn't until this moment that she really wanted to follow Ren Xiaosu and carry out the missions obediently.
…
When the two of them arrived at the outskirts of Houguan Lake, Zhou Yingxue looked at the tight defenses. It was only a villa complex, but there was even a fully armed company stationed there.
"Master, how do you plan on rescuing Luo Lan?" Zhou Yingxue asked as she crouched in the greenery.
But just as she finished speaking, she saw Ren Xiaosu get up and walk towards the entrance of the Houguan Lake villa complex. Zhou Yingxue was going crazy. Was Ren Xiaosu going to force his way in?
Could this be the mindset of a legendary supernatural being?!
At this moment, Luo Lan was smoking a cigar in the courtyard of the villa. Zhou Qi, who was next to him, said, "We've already prepared the troops to rescue you. After we kill our way out of Houguan Lake, we'll head west. There will naturally be some people guarding the stronghold. Once we get out of the stronghold, Qing Zhen's men will pick you up."
Luo Lan did not say a word.
Zhou Qi smiled and said, "Why? You don't dare to leave? Are you afraid that you won't be able to wipe the sh * t off your ass after you leave? "
Luo Lan thought for a moment and said, "That's only one aspect of it. But even a fool knows I didn't do it. Zhou Shiji is a smart man, so he won't be so foolish. But have you ever thought about it? If we really kill our way out of Houguan Lake, the 100-odd people lurking in Stronghold 73 will lose their lives? Besides, even if we manage to leave the stronghold, the Zhou Clan will definitely pursue us. Otherwise, how can they keep their dignity? This path is a bloody one. I don't joke around with the lives of my subordinates. "
Zhou Qi frowned. "You're too soft-hearted. You're the brother of the Kyung Clan's patriarch, so you shouldn't put yourself in danger. Your subordinates are risking their lives for you, but that's for a greater cause!"
"No matter how great a cause is, can it be more important than human lives?" Luo Lan pressed his cigar into the ashtray. "If someone wants to kill me, I won't hesitate to leave. But now that I know the Zhou Clan won't kill me, there's naturally no need for me to let my subordinates take such risks."
Zhou Qi curled his lips. "Alright then. There's not even a girl in this crappy place. It's too boring."
Luo Lan smiled and said, "And just like you said, if I run away, the Zhou Clan will definitely think I'm guilty. If I run away, even though everyone knows I didn't do it, I won't be able to explain myself."
But at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped into their yard, picked up Luo Lan, and ran away!
As the figure ran, he said, "Don't just stand there. I've already knocked out the security guards outside. Hurry up and leave."
Luo Lan exclaimed, "Ren Xiaosu, put me down! I can't leave now! "
Zhou Qi had never met Ren Xiaosu before, but when he heard Ren Xiaosu's name, he shuddered. Why did this ruthless person suddenly appear in Stronghold 73?!
When Ren Xiaosu heard what Luo Lan said, he frowned and asked, "Why can't you leave?"
"If I leave, won't I really become a criminal?" Luo Lan growled in a low voice.
Ren Xiaosu thought about it carefully. That seemed to be the case. But if he did not save Luo Lan, what would happen to his mission?!
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu said firmly, "No, you have to leave!"
Luo Lan was speechless.
