In Stronghold 73, it seemed like nothing else was happening other than a few underworld mob bosses fighting and killing each other. The Anjing House was still messing things up with text messages every day, but the Pyro Company still could not find the entrance to the research lab.
As long as the entrance was not found, no one would attack the Pyro Company in advance.
After all, everyone was hoping to get their hands on the research lab's information.
Right now, anyone who wanted to kill the Pyro Company's members would probably be stopped by someone.
Some people even speculated that the Zhou Clan was turning a blind eye to what was happening. They were probably also waiting.
Zhou's Army had already started setting up camp outside the stronghold, but none of the criminals in the stronghold were panicking. They were still lying in ambush.
At this moment, it was like the calm before the storm. A storm was brewing.
Ren Xiaosu also went to the spa center with peace of mind every day before going for a night run by East Lake.
The aunties in the square were still plaza dancing, but the Knight was nowhere to be seen. This incident even became news in the stronghold: "Shocking! A young man tried to stop an aunty from plaza dancing, but he was blackmailed."
When Ren Xiaosu treated the mob bosses' injuries, he asked, "Why don't y 'all just stay in the spa center? If you keep fighting like this, I'm afraid you'll all be crippled before the Pyro Company can even find the entrance to the research lab."
The mob bosses also realized Ren Xiaosu was not an ordinary person. After all, no one in the world had ever seen such a miraculous medicine that could heal such deep wounds in just three days.
However, the mob boss said with a laugh, "We'll recover in three days with you treating us, but they don't. If we keep fighting like this, they'll definitely be the ones to die first!"
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment. It seemed like there were also a lot of injured people on the other side. "Um … can I ask you something? Which spa center are they at?"
After all, there was money to be made.
One of the mob bosses looked at Ren Xiaosu speechlessly for a long time. "We'll pay you an additional 1 million yuan, but you don't have to treat them. You might not know this, but we've had a feud with those bastards for a long time. To be honest, when we encountered them at Stronghold 73 this time, we didn't even want to find the research lab's information. We just wanted to cripple them completely."
"Fine." Ren Xiaosu smacked his lips.
To be honest, Ren Xiaosu did not really regard these mob bosses as imaginary enemies this time. After all, as someone who had even stormed into a stronghold and defeated a combat brigade, he really did not think much of these so-called underworld bosses.
These people were really not good enough to fight. They were not presentable at all.
At the end of the day, the core of this world was still those consortiums and those powerful organizations with Extraordinaires as the core.
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said with a sigh, "I still think y 'all should be more rational. It's better to wait for the Anjing House to send us a message before seizing the laboratory data."
After all, for Ren Xiaosu, he was more willing to see the situation become completely chaotic, rather than two criminal organizations from the underground world fighting each other. They didn't even dare to fire their guns or go to the hospital because they were afraid of being arrested by the Zhou Clan …
That's so boring!
One of the mob bosses said, "Dr. Ren, you don't understand the situation. We used to be a local power of the Zhou Clan, but we were forced to go to Luoyang City's black market because they played dirty tricks on us. Otherwise, who would want to leave their hometown? So now that we're back here, we're especially envious of us. You're a doctor, so you don't understand how cruel the fighting and killing in the underworld can be. If there's a grudge, you have to take revenge. If you don't, outsiders will look down on you. "
Ren Xiaosu thought about it carefully. No matter how he thought about it, he felt it would be too slow to earn money if there were only one patient every few days.
He turned around and said to the mob bosses with a grin, "How about this? I'll help y 'all wipe out the local powers here. How much money would that be worth?"
The mob bosses looked at one another. The young man in front of them seemed innocent when he smiled, but the words he said made their hair stand on end.
But wasn't he a doctor?
Someone laughed and said, "Dr. Ren, don't joke around. They have guns in their hands. We're not using our guns because we're worried we'll be hunted down by the Zhou Clan. But if it really comes down to it, we'll do whatever it takes. That's not something you can handle as a doctor. Don't underestimate us. "
Ren Xiaosu raised his eyebrows and did not say anything else.
Just as Ren Xiaosu thought these peaceful days would last for a while longer, the Anjing House sent another extremely important message.
"We've located the Pyro Company's safe house in the Swan Pond villa district. There are 40 of them, and the number of people from the Knight Organization is unknown. The location of the research lab is suspected to be in the former East Lake Tunnel. The Pyro Company is currently trying to locate the entrance to the research lab in the East Lake Tunnel."
This was the original text of the message. Everyone in the spa center was rubbing their hands in glee. These mob bosses were originally locals. Ren Xiaosu wondered, "The East Lake Tunnel? Why haven't I heard of this East Lake Tunnel before? "
"You probably don't know about this." One of them said with a smile, "The East Lake Tunnel was an infrastructure facility from before The Cataclysm. It's said that it runs through the north and south of East Lake and shortens the time it takes for people from the south to get to the north. The tunnel is quite sturdy and was still in use for many years after The Cataclysm. However, the main structure was damaged by an earthquake more than a decade ago. Although water hasn't seeped through the tunnel yet, it's said that it's in danger of collapsing. As such, the Zhou Clan completely sealed off the East Lake Tunnel."
"Did the Zhou Clan repair the tunnel?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Of course not. The various consortiums are busy researching and developing weapons and military strength, so their infrastructure is far worse than before The Cataclysm." One of them explained, "But that tunnel is very long, so why would the research lab be hidden in it?"
"It's pitch-black inside the tunnel, and there are also many emergency passageways that only maintenance workers are allowed to enter. Who knows, the research lab might be hidden underground behind one of the doors. It looks like the Pyro Company used to be very secretive," one of them said with a sigh.
Ren Xiaosu packed his things and walked out of the spa center. He did not have time to waste on this group of mob bosses anymore. At this moment, there were probably countless criminals rushing towards the East Lake Tunnel.
This text message was like the Anjing House declaring war on the Pyro Company: "I've found you and roughly know where your research lab is. A lot of people are rushing there now. Are you going or not?
If you don't go, so many people will definitely find your research lab before you do. But if you go, you'll have to face so many enemies. "
It was already late at night. Due to the curfew, there were no pedestrians on the streets of Stronghold 73. It looked very deserted.
Ren Xiaosu walked down the street where even the street lights were off. He knew this deserted scene would not last for long. Stronghold 73 would definitely be especially lively tonight.
Gunshots could already be heard in the distance. The crisp sound was like the prelude to a midnight feast in the night sky.
