The Devoted Second Male Lead Decided to Favor Someone Else - Chapter 148

Lin Dong became Du Jiang’s glasses and instructed Du Jiang to drive the others back to the base, while Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting followed them and drove back all the way.

Although it was a bit risky to do so, the one who could hit Gu was unexpected.

The two groups of people hurriedly rushed, and finally before the sun went down the next day, Lin Dong and Du Jiang returned to the base.

Afraid of attracting the attention of the sentry, Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting parked the car far away, then walked to the base near the base to ambush outside, waiting for Lin Dong’s news.

It was not until the middle of the moon that I saw Du Jiang’s figure appearing at the entrance of the base, but there was a rule prohibiting going out at night in the base, and the guards would not let him go out.

Du Jiang quarreled with the guard for a while, but the guard still refused to let him go. Du Jiang became annoyed and raised his voice to sneer at the guard: “Isn’t he just a gatekeeper, what’s so great, holding chicken feathers as an arrow. I’m doing things for Mr. Gu Yes, if you delay my business, you can wait until Mr. Gu finds you to settle the account!”

No matter how Du Jiang rubbed his mouth, the guards remained unmoved and performed their duties dutifully. Du Jiang had no hope of going out. Cursingly, he turned and left.

As soon as Du Jiang left, Lu Shijin, who was in ambush in the dark, also left, motioning to Xiang Ting to follow him.

“Go, find Lin Dong.”

Xiang Ting asked inexplicably, “Where to find it?”

“You didn’t hear what Du Jiang said just now?” Lu Shijin asked with a smile.

Xiang Ting was still inexplicable: “I heard it, so what?”

Lu Shijin: “When he spoke, he deliberately spoke loudly, obviously to let us hear, and he emphasized the word ‘behind’, so I guess he should have signaled us to go around to the back to find him.”

Xiang Ting suddenly realized, and had to admire Lu Shijin’s wit, “So it is.”

Lu Shijin urged: “Let’s go, hurry up, I’m afraid Du Jiang will be suspected.”

The two moved cautiously and quietly went around the back of the base. Of course, there were guards behind, but they were not as strict as the front. The two guards watching the gate even took a nap in boredom.

Although it was far away, Lu Shijin, with excellent eyesight, found Du Jiang inside the fence at a glance. Standing in a hidden spot, he cautiously moved towards Du Jiang’s position while avoiding the searchlights swept over.

After finding Du Jiang, the three of them stood across the fence. Lu Shijin lowered his voice and asked, “How is it? Have you met Gu?”

Du Jiang, whose consciousness was manipulated by Lin Dong, said: “After returning, a few of us went to Mr. Gu and told him that our actions had been discovered by you. Xiang Ting beat us back, but Mr. Gu did not say anything. How to deal with you next.”

“Didn’t you say?” Lu Shijin was slightly surprised, looked at Xiang Ting, and said in disbelief, “Could he just let us go so easily?”

Du Jiang said: “I don’t know exactly what he was thinking, but I think he has more important things to deal with in a hurry, so he sent us out without saying a few words.”

“More important things?” Lu Shijin frowned alertly and thought about it. Gu is definitely not like a person who can’t achieve his goal and give up easily. Could it be that he has some other tricks to deal with them? What could it be?

Lu Shijin: “Brother Dong, I have to trouble you to inquire again. Can the surnamed Gu be busy?”

“OK, then you wait here, I’ll come when I go.” Lin Dong happily agreed, anyway, in the eyes of others, only Du Jiang could be seen, and there was no danger to him, and Lin Dong became more courageous.

Lin Dong controlled Du Jiang to walk quietly to the place where Mr. Gu lived. However, the place where the surnamed Gu lived was usually forbidden to approach. There were more guards than the entrance of the base, and patrol dogs were patrolling back and forth.

Before Lin Dong could touch the wall, the patrol dog with a keen sense of hearing heard his footsteps and barked in his direction. The guard immediately rushed over to investigate the situation and scared Lin Dong into manipulation With Du Jiang turned his head and left.

However, the sound of footsteps chasing him got closer and closer. Lin Dong panicked and ran into a dead end. In the end, he couldn’t escape. He was about to go out to face the guards, but a woman suddenly sounded outside. speaking voice.

“Brother guard, it’s me.”

The woman’s voice sounded familiar, but Lin Dong focused on identifying it, and recognized what seemed to be Su Ling’s voice? How is she here?

The guard seemed to know Su Ling. Hearing that it was her, he stopped and had no doubts, “Why is it you again? Didn’t I tell you that you can’t approach his residence without Mr. Gu’s order?”

Su Ling said aggrievedly: “I want to find my boyfriend. I haven’t seen him for two days. He was arranged by Mr. Gu to do a task. I just wanted to ask Mr. Gu where my boyfriend went. As a girlfriend, I always have the right to know, right?”

Guard: “It’s useless for you to tell us this, anyway, no one can enter or leave this place without Mr. Gu’s order, you should hurry up and leave, since you just came here and don’t understand the rules, I won’t arrest you this time. You, you go! Don’t interfere with our patrol!”

“Thank you eldest guard,” Su Ling said pitifully, “then if you know the whereabouts of my boyfriend, can you tell me?”

The guard may not be easy to see Su Ling as a weak girl, so he readily agreed: “Okay, I will help you pay attention, don’t wander around the base so late, in case you shouldn’t go there. Place, if you get caught again, let’s go.”

Lin Dong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of footsteps outside. Fortunately, Su Ling helped him save him.

After confirming that there was no movement outside, he tiptoed out of the alley, and before he showed his head, he was startled by a face that suddenly appeared from the corner!

Lin Dong was still in shock, and quickly asked Du Jiang to cover his mouth to avoid screaming, and then led the guard over, and when he took a closer look, it was Su Ling again, and his beating heart became a little calmer.

“Scared me! How could it be you!”

Lin Dong is only a pair of glasses for Du Jiang now, so in Su Ling’s eyes, of course, only Du Jiang’s face can be seen.

“I still want to ask you!” Su Ling was also surprised and suspicious, “I just saw a person being chased by guards from a distance, and I felt that the figure looked a bit like you, but I wasn’t sure, but I didn’t expect it to be really you. Aren’t you dead?”

It turned out that Su Ling had discovered him long ago, no wonder she helped him cover.

Lin Dong thought about what Su Ling said just now that Tang Qin had been sent out on a mission by Gu who had not seen him for two days, and that Su Ling had been staying at the base again. Maybe Su Ling would know some secrets of Gu.

“I’m not actually dead,” Lin Dong didn’t want to reveal his identity, so he didn’t say who he was, but said through Du Jiang’s mouth, “The day I met the zombies, I hid in my storage space and escaped the catastrophe. When I wanted to go back to find you, I was brought here by Mr. Gu’s people and forced me to join them. Su Ling, what about the others?”

Su Ling believed Du Jiang’s explanation, without doubt, lowered her head, looking a little sad.

“Thinking that after you died, the five of us left, but we were also chased by zombies on the road, and we accidentally broke into this place when we were fleeing. In the end, Tang Qin and I chose to come down, and Brother Xiang, Brother Lu, and Brother Dong left. .”

“Is that so,” Du Jiang asked, “then what happened when you said Tang Qin was gone?”

Without seeing Tang Qin, Su Ling stayed in the base alone for two days. She didn’t know anyone and couldn’t find anyone she could talk to. She was on the verge of collapse, and finally met a familiar person. , Where can I hold back, sobbing lowly.

“They asked Tang Qin to go out on a mission with them, but it’s been two days, and they haven’t come back, and they won’t tell me where Tang Qin went. I’m worried…I’m worried…he was controlled by Mr. Gu…”

“Don’t cry first,” Du Jiang patted Su Ling on the shoulder to comfort her, “Tang Qin should be fine. Su Ling, I don’t think this Mr. Gu is a good person, forcing us to join this base to help him and control Our personal freedom, we have to find a way to get out of here to find Brother Xiang and the others.”

Su Ling cried: “Yeah, I have long thought that Mr. Gu is not as simple as it looks on the surface, but Tang Qin didn’t know what was going on at that time, and he was determined to stay here, and I had no choice but to persuade him. He, others don’t know where they are now, what should I do if they want me to stay here alone?”

“Don’t worry, I will rescue you,” Du Jiang said, “but Su Ling, have you found anything strange in the base these two days?”

“Strange thing?” Su Ling stopped crying and frowned for a while, “Yes, yes. I heard someone next to me talking about something while eating, saying that Mr. Gu has arrested a lot in the past two days. When the evil power user came back, he was locked in the basement of the small building where he lived, does that count?”

Lin Dong remembered that when Mr. Gu sent them away, he looked back. Mr. Gu seemed to have gone to his basement, so the important thing must be about the so-called “evil powers” he captured.

“Forget it, of course!” Lin Dong was overjoyed, and hurriedly went back to find Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting, and said to Su Ling, “Su Ling, go back, relax, I will definitely find a way to help you find out about Tang Qin.”

Su Ling nodded, “Okay, thank you Du Jiang, it’s great that you can live.”

Lin Dong thought to himself, poor girl, you still don’t know anything. If you knew what the person in front of you did, you probably wouldn’t think so.

After Su Ling left, Lin Dong asked Du Jiang to rush to the back of the base at the fastest speed. Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting were still waiting for him. Lin Dong repeated what Su Ling told him to Lu Shijin and asked: ” There must be a secret in the basement surnamed Gu, there is no ‘evil power user’ at all, what conspiracy is he planning? What are we going to do next? Do we care?”

Lu Shijin pondered for a while, then looked at Xiang Ting, “What do you think?”

Xiang Ting: “We have to rescue Su Ling and Tang Qin.”

“Don’t you blame them for abandoning you?” Lu Shijin asked with a smile.

Xiang Ting said lightly: “Tang Qin should be controlled by Mr. Gu, and Su Ling is even more innocent. They are not as wicked as Du Jiang. After knowing each other, they should save them.”

“What you thought was to save Tang Qin and Su Ling, but what I thought was,” Lu Shijin looked up at this huge base in the dark, like a giant beast crawling on the ground, and the people inside were Lu Shijin coldly hooked his lower lip for the food of the giant beast, and continued, “Save everyone in the base.”

Lin Dong: “…Little Lu, we can’t protect ourselves, so don’t mind your own business. If you save someone, you can leave quickly. You don’t know the people in this base, and they are not related to you. You care about them. What are you doing?”

“Don’t you understand yet?” Lu Shijin ignored Lin Dong, looked at Xiang Ting, and said, “Fleeing blindly, evading pursuit and killing is not the way, the way to survive in the apocalypse, two, one is to become stronger, The second is to unite more power users. Looking for some self-help organization, the journey is long, and I don’t know what dangers will be encountered. Even if we get there, who can guarantee that they will protect us forever?”

“What do you mean,” Xiang Ting’s eyes sharpened, “it’s better to rely on yourself than others. Let’s build an organization ourselves, right?”

“Yes, but you don’t have to build it yourself,” Lu Shijin raised his finger and pointed forward, “Isn’t there a ready-made one here?”

Lin Dong understood what Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting meant, and was surprised, “You two are ambitious enough, are you planning to usurp the throne?”

“It’s not like this to usurp the throne,” Xiang Ting said with a serious expression and a faint smile. He stared into Lu Shijin’s eyes and said, “We should count as—”

The two of them said in unison, word by word: “For, Heaven, Xing, Dao!”

Lin Dong noticed the tacit understanding between the two, and felt that he was forcibly stuffed with a handful of dog food.

God, he is obviously not a base, why does it feel sour when watching these two base friends show their love?

Ah ah ah ah, this world is so unfriendly to single dogs! Full of malice!

“How do you practice the law for the sky? Let’s say it first, I won’t do the hard work.” Lin Dong asked coolly.

Lu Shijin looked up at the sky and deliberately teased Lin Dong, “The moon is dark and the wind is high to kill the night…”

Lin Dong was shocked, and his tone changed nervously, “What? Killing? I dare not kill! I dare not kill a chicken!”

Lu Shijin said jokingly: “Don’t worry, don’t let you kill people, will you set fire?”

Setting fire sounds easier than killing people. Lin Dong weighed it and asked hesitantly, “How to let it go?”

Lu Shijin: “I observed it here last time. There is a warehouse in the northwest corner of the base, where they store their food. You can go there and set fire to it, and then leave.”

“Burn food?” Lin Dong disagreed. “If you don’t have enough to eat, you still set fire to it. It’s too wasteful!”

Lu Shijin: “This is the only way to cause them chaos. You have to be reluctant to burn food, or you can burn gasoline, but I can’t avoid the explosion.”

Lin Dong: “…then let’s burn food. Although I’m just a pair of glasses now, I have to think about my own safety.”

Lin Dong returned to the base and waited for an opportunity to set fire to it, while Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting were going to take advantage of the chaos in the base to sneak into the base to find out what secrets were hidden in the basement surnamed Gu.

Although it was night, Xiang Ting couldn’t use his abilities, but Lu Shijin still had the golden finger of 711. As long as he leaned over and asked 711 to scan it, he would know what was in the basement.

Moreover, there is only a chance to approach Mr. Gu’s heavily guarded residence at night. During the day, the base is full of ability users with abilities. It is even more difficult to sneak in and hide from everyone’s sight.

After waiting outside for a while, Lin Dong did not let them down. Soon he saw the fire in the northwest corner rising into the sky and thick smoke. The alarm sounded in the base. When he heard that the food warehouse was on fire, everyone got up from the bed and rushed to the ground. As soon as he was about to put out the fire, the base was instantly chaotic.

Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting sneaked into the base while the guards were unprepared.

Mr. Gu’s residence and the place of fire are in opposite directions, so the two of them touched all the way and didn’t meet anyone.

After evolving into a third-order ability user, Lu Shijin’s five senses are more sensitive, and even in the dark night when he can’t reach his fingers, he can easily bypass all obstacles.

When they were brought to the vicinity of the second-story building that day, Lu Shijin saw the guard at the door from a distance.

Everyone else went to put out the fire, but the number of guards surnamed Gu was not small at all, and the patrols were not slack.

There is a power grid on the fence that cannot be climbed. Even if it climbs, it will be discovered by patrol dogs.

So how do we divert these guards and successfully enter the small building?

At this time, of course, it was 711’s turn to appear. Lu Shijin secretly ordered 711: “Convenience store, use a burst card to lure these people away.”

711 deftly threw an explosion card not far away. The guard heard the explosion and took his patrol dog over to check the situation. Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting seized the opportunity for them to leave the post, and quickly and successfully entered the wall.

Next, is to find the basement.

Lu Shijin was looking for the location in the basement, and Xiang Ting suddenly asked, “What happened to the explosion just now?”

Lu Shijin was stunned for a moment, and quickly returned calmly: “I don’t know, maybe God is helping us too.”

They were at a loss as to how to lure the guards away, and an explosion occurred. Did God really help?

It wasn’t that Xiang Ting didn’t believe such a coincidence would happen, but he felt that some of the facts that had happened to Lu Shijin these days were weird.

The first was the torture of Du Jiang. What Lu Shijin asked, Du Jiang answered honestly.

Then, he could control Du Jiang’s mind again and let Du Jiang act under Lin Dong’s command.

Is this using a power? But why has he never heard of such an ability before?

But since Lu Shijin didn’t want to tell him the truth, Xiang Ting didn’t ask any more.

He believed that Lu Shijin would not harm him, and also believed that if Lu Shijin didn’t want to say it, it must be the reason why he couldn’t say it.

Xiang Ting’s life creed has always been like this. Since he chose to trust, he should never doubt it.

“I found it!” Lu Shijin snorted excitedly and pulled back Xiang Ting’s thoughts. He asked, “What?”

Lu Shijin: “The location of the basement! Let me scan it.”

After 711 scanned it, he told Lu Shijin the result: “There are seven people in it.”

Lu Shijin: “So many? What is the old fox trying to do by hiding so many people inside?”

711: “Then you have to ask him.”

“There are seven people in the basement, but I don’t know what they are doing,” Lu Shijin told Xiang Ting in a low voice, asking for his opinion, “Would you like to go in?”

Xiang Ting nodded: “Of course, but now is not the time. The chaos outside will definitely arouse Mr. Gu’s vigilance. These are all his people. If we are found, we will not be able to leave.”

Lu Shijin: “Then what do you mean?”

Xiang Ting pondered for a while, and said, “Wait. Wait a little later, about two or three in the morning. That’s when people’s spirits are the easiest to relax, so let’s find a chance to go in.”

Lu Shijin thought it made sense, so he pulled Xiang Ting to hide in a remote corner and waited for an opportunity.

The fire in the northwest corner disappeared, presumably the fire had been extinguished, and the guards outside found that the explosion was just a false alarm, and returned to the door to stand guard. Of course, they did not expect that someone had slipped into the wall.

After about half an hour, a figure came out from the entrance of the basement. Lu Shijin recognized the tall figure at a glance, and it was Mr. Gu himself.

Mr. Gu entered the basement alone and left alone, so who are the other six people in the basement, and why did he lock them up?

Lu Shijin was very curious about this.

Mr. Gu left the basement and went back to the second-floor building. The room on the left of the second floor should be his bedroom. Lu Shijin watched him enter the bedroom, turned on the light in the room, and sat down by the window with the curtains closed. A dark shadow appeared.

Mr. Gu has been sitting in front of the desk, as if he is dealing with things. Lu Shijin stared at it, and gradually became sleepy.

“Why doesn’t he go to bed yet?” Lu Shijin patted his forehead and picked up his ears to keep himself awake, but he couldn’t help yawning again and again, “It’s so late, he doesn’t Are you sleepy?”

Xiang Ting saw that he was slapping himself in the face and holding his ears again, feeling amused, rubbed his forehead, and said softly: “If you are sleepy, you can sleep with me for a while, and I will just stare. “

Lu Shijin shook his head, “How about that? What if we both fall asleep? Opportunities don’t come every day.

Xiang Ting knew that Lu Shijin was attached to it, and he didn’t force it, “Then let’s chat for a while and divert our attention, so we won’t be so sleepy.”

“Okay, what are we talking about?” Lu Shijin raised his head and asked him.

Xiang Ting: “Do you have any wishes?”

Lu Shijin: “Yes, I hope world peace.”

“Your wish is too big, I’m afraid it won’t come true in a while, let’s put it another way,” Xiang Ting chuckled, “What do you want to do in the future?”

“In the future?” Lu Shijin blinked and thought for a while, and said faintly, “I want to find someone to live a stable life with, I don’t want to live without a fixed place like this anymore, and I will be wandering forever. After all, there must be a harbor where I can stop and rest. If you wander for too long, you will get tired too.”

Xiang Ting brushed a lock of hair from his forehead for him, and asked warmly, “So, where will your harbor be?”

Lu Shijin rolled his eyes, suddenly pulled Xiang Ting’s hand around his shoulders, and opened a big smile on his lips, saying with certainty, “This is it!”

Infected by his smile, Xiang Ting couldn’t help laughing, his heart softened, he hugged Lu Shijin tightly, kissed his forehead, and whispered, “Well, it’s here, always open for you.”

The two cuddled with each other, whispered, expressed their sincerity, and occasionally kissed each other.

At this moment, Lu Shijin’s wish seemed to have really come true, world peace, as if there was only a corner where the two of them were left in the world, only the two of them were left, there was no trouble, no conspiracy, everything was so beautiful and quiet.

Lu Shijin looked at the sky from a distance and sighed: “I don’t know when such days will end. I really want to go back to the past.”

Xiang Ting: “Soon.”

Lu Shijin looked at him with a smile: “Do you know which past I’m talking about?”

“No matter which past or future,” Xiang Ting said in a low voice, giving people a sense of conviction, “I will accompany you.”

“That’s what you said,” Lu Shijin restrained his smile and said seriously, “You have to stay with me all the time.”

Xiang Ting nodded slowly and solemnly, and made a promise.

The moon was sinking in the west, and it wasn’t until about three in the morning that the lights in the bedroom on the second floor went out, and the surnamed Gu finally went to rest.

Seeing the lights go out, Lu Shijin immediately sat up from Xiang Ting’s arms, yawned, rubbed his eyes, and complained, “The old fox will die sooner or later if he stays up so late!”

Xiang Ting has always been very energetic, his eyes are still bright, and he patted: “Let’s go, let’s go to the basement.”

It’s time to uncover the secrets hidden inside.
