Chapter 390: Chapter 388: The Method to Leave the Shelter
"Clones?"
Vice President Zheng crossed his arms and said in a deep voice, "You say that to me, and I can’t pretend I didn’t hear it."
Lv Bai spread his hands, "Then why aren’t you taking action?"
In fact, he had already suspected that Vice President Zheng, or rather the senior management of Can Society, wasn’t truly loyal to those so-called masters.
When he first learned about Can Society, based on the group’s objectives, Lv Bai thought that the society was full of extremists with problems.
However, once he interacted with the people inside Can Society, he clearly felt that they weren’t truly extreme and could communicate normally.
Some of the society’s members were even considered outstanding among the Death Fighter group.
Would such a group really be led by the nose by the so-called masters, obeying their every command?
A playful smile appeared on Lv Bai’s face.
Vice President Zheng clicked his tongue, then changed the subject, "So what exactly did you do to make my master put in so much effort to come find you?"
"Who knows, I ran into them in the Death Arena and just took them out."
"Can’t be that simple, can it?"
Vice President Zheng squinted his eyes, probing, "There are so many clones in the Death Arena, winning and losing is common, but this is clearly an attempt to silence."
Even though none of the Can Society members knew the true cost of their master’s arrival.
Based on how rare their master’s arrival was, one can infer some difficulty.
In fact, in the Death Arena, even if a Death Fighter humiliates a clone before killing it, usually the clones won’t come to find them in real life.
It’s more likely that a Death Fighter’s performance in the Death Arena was too outstanding, prompting the clones to come down early to eliminate them.
Lv Bai did not explain further but instead posed a seemingly unrelated question: "Have you been to, or know how to get to the ground?"
"Of course, after all, everyone in Can Society hopes to meet my master."
Vice President Zheng’s tone carried an unmistakable hint of allure, "I can tell you, do you want to know?"
Lv Bai lowered his gaze and casually snapped his fingers.
A blur of white leaped from his fingertips, and when it reached a height of about four or five meters, countless threads extended from the white mass, falling to the ground.
In an instant, Lv Bai and Vice President Zheng were enveloped in this white thread with intervals.
[Bird Cage (Gold): Forms a cage constructed from threads, after forming the bird cage, contact with the threads will cause some damage.]
"Do you have the ability to refuse me?"
...
"Open the door! Is anyone there? If you don’t open it, we’ll break it down!"
Outside the room, several security personnel knocked on the door, but no one responded.
The twenty-fourth floor of the Habitable Tower, Li Shan looked at the surveillance footage synced to the tablet, somewhat puzzled, "Are we sure there’s a tenant in this room?"
The bald middle-aged man quickly explained, "We’ve already asked the neighbors. A single woman lives in this room, she returned home last night and hasn’t left the room since."
Li Shan thought for a moment and pressed the communication device button.
"Permission to breach the door."
With his order given, the surveillance footage on the tablet soon changed.
Two security personnel took out door-breaking hammers, knocked three times, and finally shattered the door, creating a big hole.
One of the security personnel standing by the door reached inside, found the lock, opened the door, and the ones in the corridor filed in.
You could see that the available space in the room was quite small, the windows were shut, with the curtains drawn, making visibility low.
One security personnel immediately went to the window to open the curtains and the window for ventilation.
In such a short time, the other security personnel had already finished checking the house.
After all, the apartment was just a single room and a living room, with no place to hide people.
Things were randomly piled everywhere in the room, the TV, fridge, furniture and other appliances were visibly old, suggesting the owner was not affluent.
"Where’s the person?"
"No one is home."
Finding nothing special, Li Shan said without much thought, "Maybe that neighbor heard wrong last night. Try to contact this resident."
As he spoke, he touched the screen, preparing to minimize the surveillance footage.
But then suddenly.
Bang!
A sudden gunshot shattered the peace within the house.
Thud~
The security personnel who had opened the window had the back of their head blown open by a bullet, collapsing instantly.
The security personnel present were all stunned because the shooter was also a security personnel.
"Ah... Ah Wei, what are you doing?!"
Followed by three successive gunshots.
The room wasn’t that big, and only five security personnel had entered.
Excluding the first one shot dead, the remaining three couldn’t escape death.
One could only say the shooter had precise aim, three bullets pierced through three skulls, red and white matter splattered everywhere, even the old walls were splattered with blood.
Watching this scene, Li Shan’s pupils suddenly contracted.
In the surveillance footage, the security officer who had just shot and killed four colleagues turned around, showing an exaggerated smile, his mouth stretching nearly to his ears.
The security personnel holding the law enforcement recorder stood in the corridor, and from the shaking surveillance footage, Li Shan could clearly sense the panic in those on the scene.
The security personnel outside the door didn’t retreat because that crazed individual didn’t continue his rampage but instead pointed the gun to his own temple.
"Since that person isn’t here, how dare you come looking for me?"
He pulled the trigger, the gunshot followed, and he fell to the ground.
In an instant, all five security personnel who charged in were dead.
Witnessing the scene, everyone felt chills down their spine.
Faced with such an unexpected turn, there was no way Li Shan could remain seated.
He stood up abruptly, handing the tablet to the bald middle-aged man, "Watch the scene, I’m heading over immediately."
As he quickly made his way to the elevator, Li Shan’s expression grew stern.
Feng Yixuan, being his partner, naturally followed closely, without a mind for jokes along the way.
There are many ways to deal with five armed security personnel, but the terror lies in their total cluelessness about how it was accomplished.
If the murderer possesses such a silent control ability, deploying more security officers is futile, and the officers wouldn’t dare continue their inspection.
Li Shan quickly made a decision, "Yi Xuan, report to headquarters, request reinforcements."
