stop fighting

Ling Qian slowly rolled up the sleeves of his shirt: "Captain Lu, you have two at 3 o'clock, and I have two at 2 o'clock, how about it?"

Lu Ze laughed: "Okay."

The few people who were hiding in the dark and ambushing saw the two of them stopped at the entrance of the alley and guessed that they had been exposed. Now that they had been discovered, there was no point in hiding.

After a teeth-piercing roar, 4 black figures jumped out from different directions.

The moment the voice started, Lu Ze and Ling Qian had already fled from different directions.

Lu Ze lifted his foot and kicked a taller man on the waist and abdomen on the left. With his strength, this kick only made him take a slight step back.He ducked down to avoid the opponent's fist, twisted the man's arm with his backhand and folded it back.

There was a crisp bone cracking sound, but the man roared as if he didn't feel the pain at all, and wanted to grab Lu Ze with his hand twisted into 90.

Lu Ze's eyes narrowed suddenly—infected body.

He didn't show mercy anymore, he turned around and punched the opponent's side face, and while the opponent was staggering, he hooked his hands around its neck and lifted it up—"crack" with a crisp neck fracture.

Seeing that he couldn't please him, the other infected body behind him took two steps back, hesitated for a few seconds, then turned and walked in Ling Qian's direction.

Ling Qian's melee combat is mainly about dexterity. Lu Ze had learned it before when he was in the old city. The strength of his shots may not be heavy, but the angles are often tricky and the speed is extremely fast. If you relax your vigilance, it is likely to hit his He fell down without even seeing the movement.

At this moment, he had knocked over one infected body, bent over and turned around in a second, bumped into its knee, strangled its neck from behind when it was unsteady, At some point between his fingers, a blade gleaming with cold light was flipped, and it pierced into the head of the infected body in an instant.

As for the one running over from Lu Ze's side, he had already fallen to the ground with his back and hands.

Ling Qian came over and rolled over the eyelids of the infected body: "It's hopeless."

The thing was pinned to the ground by Lu Ze, and it still howled "ahhh", saliva flowed out from the corner of its mouth and dripped all over the floor.

Lu Ze waved his hands away in disgust: "Who told you to come?"

The infected body struggled to turn its head, and seemed to regain its clarity of mind for a moment under the severe pain. He opened his mouth wide in pain: "Save... save me... I don't want to... ahhhh—"

His miserable cry echoed in the quiet air around him, and when the sound fell, his head tilted to the side, it was no longer enough.

Lu Ze was not at ease, and still stepped on its back and did not let go. Ling Qian knelt down and motioned for him to turn the infected body over. After checking its body surface roughly, Ling Qian's expression was a little disgusted: " It should be a temporary high-dose injection of the virus, and the brain has been eroded before the body has time to respond."

As he spoke, he turned around and looked at the other three corpses in the open space, all of them were in the same situation without exception.

He looked up at Lu Ze: "It seems that we should have been discovered."

Lu Ze's face was very ugly. If they were exposed, it is very likely that the informant named "Swift" last night would not be safe.

He threw the corpse in his hand aside, and strode to the door of Laifu Restaurant.

They made such a big commotion just now, the surrounding residential buildings are still quiet, there are not even half of people watching the excitement, as if no one lives there.At this moment, he pushed open the glass door of the restaurant, only to see Ah Fu guarding the door with his head poised.

Seeing him come in, he clapped his hands and smiled: "You guys are amazing."

Lu Ze glanced at her: "You've been here to watch the fun?"

Ah Fu smiled with a guilty conscience: "It's not what Master Shu ordered. As long as it's not in this restaurant, you don't care about the outside affairs. And according to my observation, such a few living corpses are not your opponents at all."

Lu Ze had no temper at all, and he didn't bother to talk to her, so he asked directly: "Is there anything unusual here last night? Has anyone come to see me?"

Ah Fu shook his head: "There was nothing unusual last night. After I locked the door, I slept until dawn. This morning, 10 minutes before you came back, someone sent this and said it was for you."

As she spoke, she handed over a folded note.

Ling Qian also followed in at this time, he nodded at Ah Fu, and said warmly: "I'll trouble you to deal with those corpses outside."

Ah Fu responded quickly, turned around and left.

"Any news?" Ling Qian looked at the note in Lu Ze's hand and asked.

Lu Ze shook his head, and passed the note with a sullen face.

It was blank, with no words in it.

Ling Qian also frowned: "This is..."

Lu Ze's jaw was tense: "Just as we left, we received this great gift here. No matter how you think about it, it can't be a coincidence. Either 'Swift' was also exposed, or..."

He didn't finish.

"Either way, your informant is no longer the person he used to be." Ling Qian helped him finish the sentence, his voice was rational and cold.

Lu Ze glanced at him, but didn't speak.

During the silence, there was a dull gunshot outside, followed by a scream, which sounded like Ah Fu's voice.

Lu Ze's heart tightened, he turned around and ran out, Ling Qian followed closely behind him.

A few meters away from the door, Ah Fu sat slumped on the ground, with a horrified expression on his face, and a living corpse fell two steps behind her.

Different from the four that Lu Ze and the others had dealt with before, this one seemed to have a deeper infection, and the exposed skin of the limbs had obvious festering and black spots. At this moment, it fell face down on the ground motionless .

"What's going on?" Lu Ze asked.

Ah Fu pointed at the living corpse a little tremblingly: "I originally wanted to drag the four who attacked you to the back of the yard and burn them, but when I came here, I heard gunshots, and then I saw this thing."

Lu Ze frowned, and walked up to the living corpse.

Ah Fu was right, there was a blood hole in the middle of the back of the head of the thing, and black mucus flowed all over the floor.

Lu Ze turned it to the front with his toes, only to see that the bullet penetrated its skull, and the bullet protruded a little from its forehead.

He knelt down and inspected the living corpse carefully, only to see that its eyelids were everted, and the entire pupil had turned white. If you looked closely, you could find a layer of black bloodshot on it.When his eyes fell on the bullet that penetrated the skull, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he stood up from the ground.

Ling Qian just walked over and was taken aback by his action: "What?"

Lu Ze looked around, left a sentence of "watch her", turned around and ran towards a residential building in front.

Ling Qian's gaze also fell on the forehead of the living corpse, staring at the bullet for a few seconds, his eyes slowly narrowed, and he turned to Ah Fu: "Ah Fu, you said you turned your head when you heard the gunshots. , and then discovered this living corpse?"

Ah Fu had already stood up from the ground, his expression still a little shocked: "Yes."

"You didn't see the shooter?"

Ah Fu shook his head: "No."

After thinking about it, she added another sentence: "We are not allowed to carry guns without permission here. Although there are some channels in the black market, there are too few people who are really capable of getting guns. Even Master Shu has few people. With a gun."

Ling Qian looked at the direction where Lu Ze left, and seemed to think of something, his expression became a little subtle.

On the other side, after looking around, Lu Ze immediately found the best location for sniping - the second window on the 7th floor of the opposite residential building against the wall.

Although he reached the 7th floor as fast as he could, he was still a step late after knocking open the door next to the window.

The room was empty, without any furniture, the windows were covered with a thin layer of dust, and there was no trace of human activity.

The old door panel wobbled on the hinges, making a low creaking sound.

Lu Ze stood at the door for a while, squatting down and tilting his head—from this angle, under the thin light coming through the window, he could see a line of obvious footprints on the dust on the ground.

The footprints stretched straight from the door to the window, and the position of the window looked a bit messy.

Lu Ze walked over step by step along the footprints, and picked up a brass bullet casing under the window sill without accident.

It is not a uniform standard of the training base. It is estimated that it is a firearm circulating on the black market, but it can be clearly seen that it is a special model for sniper rifles.

He held the bullet casing between his fingers for a few seconds, turned his eyes, looked around the room, and walked out as if nothing had happened.

When he got to the bottom of the building, a black shadow flashed out from nowhere, stuck to the window and looked down, making sure that Lu Ze had gone far and didn't look back, so he breathed a sigh of relief and walked away After leaving this room, it disappeared into the depths of the corridor in a blink of an eye.

When Lu Ze walked back to the restaurant, Ling Qian had already helped Ah Fu move the corpses of those living corpses to the backyard and lit the fire.

Seeing him coming back, Ling Qian looked at him inquiringly, and Lu Ze shook his head silently.

After finishing all these, when the two returned to the upstairs room, Lu Ze looked at Ling Qian: "This place is no longer safe, I have some things to check with Master Shu."

"But you are worried about the safety of that informant?" Ling Qian helped him complete the second half of the sentence.

Lu Ze let out a "huh" and didn't rush to speak, with a somewhat hesitant expression on his face.

"You go to Master Shu, and I will confirm the safety of your informant. This is the most time-saving plan. After all, I am a new face to them, and the possibility of arousing suspicion is less. However," Ling Qian She raised her eyebrows: "What are you worried about?"

Lu Ze sighed: "What the Shu Lord said earlier. Since someone offered a reward to you, it proves that you are no longer a stranger to some people. What's more, you are not familiar with the terrain in this area. I don't feel relieved that you are alone. To Nero's Palace."

Ling Qian smiled reassuringly: "You seem to have forgotten how I got here in the old city."

Lu Ze frowned a little irritably: "It's not the same. At that time you had Xiaobai, and those people in the old city had no reason to kill you. Now here—"

Ling Qian took a step forward, hooked Lu Ze's chin and kissed him, and pinched the back of his neck comfortingly: "Captain Lu, since it's your boyfriend, shouldn't you have some confidence in me?"

He said these words almost close to Lu Ze's lips, and his breath was extremely ambiguous.

Lu Ze sighed, and finally compromised: "I'll draw a map for you, and gather at the place I marked before 12 noon."

Ling Qian's answer was another kiss on the corner of his lips.
