The torrential rain was pouring down, and the drainage system in this area was not very good. A thick layer of water had accumulated on the ground in a short time, and the sewage had risen to the ankles. to the calves.

The drain mouth swallowed the black-gray water with a "gurgling" sound, and a thin strand of red was mixed in, flowing in from the gap of the iron rod, and soon mixed with the sewage, it could not see its true color.

Holding on to the wall, Zhou Dong staggered a few steps. Hearing the sound of hurried footsteps not far behind him, he hurriedly turned around and hid behind a pile of boxes. People searched from this area, and their rain boots stepped on the water, making a "slapping" sound.

In the black sky and the rain, there were people searching for him everywhere. Even if he couldn't be found for a while, he would have nowhere to escape at dawn.

After the large-scale prison breakout in city A prison, most of the prisoners were arrested and returned within a few days, and some were shot dead. There are only three people still at large, including Zhou Dong.The arrest warrants for them have been issued to various provinces, cities and villages, and one will be pasted on every pole. Even if ordinary people don’t pay attention to those photos, and they can’t connect them when they see the photos, he still hides. Like a bereaved dog, as long as there are people, it dare not show its face.

But Zhou Dong didn't think he could hide for much longer. The intensity of their hunt this time was not comparable to that of before. He couldn't even find a shelter. He was arrested on Sunday.

Being caught again, he should spend the rest of his life in prison.Instead of this, why not exchange this life for something, for example, Lu Yanwang's life.

Lu Yanwang, also known as "Lu Yanwang", is said to have started his business as a criminal, and now he has been completely cleansed, but he still has a large number of brothers who used to fight and kill in his hands, and his business methods are not clean. I don't know how many small owners whose families have been destroyed.The rich second generation who bullied Zhou Dong's younger sister back then was Lu Yanwang's son. Speaking of which, the reason why that young master Lu acted recklessly was all because of the support of this old man, and he was the real culprit.Zhou Dong wanted to find him a long time ago, but the security around him was tight, and he never had a chance to do so.

After escaping from prison this time, he sneaked up to Lu Yanwang's residence with expectations that he couldn't explain clearly, but unexpectedly found that there were no policemen around. Lu Yanwang was going to a charity party, and there were very few people around him. The security personnel at the party were scattered and the checks were not strict, which gave him a chance to sneak in.Unexpectedly, when Zhou Dong sneaked in to find Lu Yanwang, he realized that this was a trap aimed at him. Lu Yanwang refused the protection offered by the police, all because he wanted to take revenge on the murderer who killed his son.

Although Zhou Dong discovered the anomaly in time and escaped from the encirclement, he was shot in the abdomen, and it seemed that no internal organs were injured. However, if this continues, sooner or later he will die due to excessive bleeding.

——Not reconciled!Not reconciled!Not reconciled!

Zhou Dong clenched his fist and slammed the wall a few times, and felt no pain even though his knuckles were bleeding.As soon as he closed his eyes, he seemed to see his sister lying twisted in a pool of blood, her eyes staring straight at the sky.

There was a sound of kicking footsteps coming towards this direction. If you go further, you will definitely see him. Zhou Dong was about to run when he suddenly saw the electronic display screen on the wall not far from him change.

The indicator light that was originally flashing "Safety Exit" with green fluorescent light flashed twice, and turned into "Squat!" with a punctuation mark.

Zhou Dong was taken aback for a moment, his mind was a little short.

Suddenly the indicator light changed back again, a flashlight flashed over, and the opponent was closer than he thought, and it was too late to run at this time, he squatted down without thinking, and heard the footsteps getting closer, soon Just walk to a distance of only about one meter from him, and if you go further, you will definitely find him!

Zhou Dong clenched the butcher's knife hidden in his arms, ready to fight to the death.

"Beep...beep...beep..."

Suddenly, a series of car sirens sounded from a distance, as if someone had accidentally bumped into a car in the underground parking lot, and the search personnel yelled "he's there!" and they all surrounded them.

Zhou Dong heaved a sigh of relief, and when he looked again, the indicator light had changed into two rows of new small characters: "Go left for 55 meters, turn right and go up the stairs."

Zhou Dong couldn't figure out what was going on, but now, there was no need for Lu Yanwang to use this method to trick him, and he had no choice but to believe this mysterious message.

He went up the stairs according to the instructions in the message. When he looked up, the camera at the corner of the stairs followed him. Zhou Dong subconsciously wanted to hide, but he saw the red light on the camera flashing suddenly.He froze for a moment, and then saw that the display of a nearby indicator light also changed to "Go to the third floor, hide in the left room".

Zhou Dong hesitated for a moment, and followed his words.

Next, under the guidance of the mysterious indicator light, he went upstairs for a while, and went downstairs for a while. Every time a searcher approached, he would be reminded to avoid it in advance, or make a strange noise elsewhere to lure people away. It took ten minutes Later, he successfully arrived at the empty parking lot, and took a car key found in the room on the third floor, and opened the lock of a nearby car.

Sitting in the car, the feeling of being surrounded by iron sheets on all sides gave him a sense of security. Zhou Dong started the car and couldn't help but ask, "Who the hell are you?"

He knew he was being silly looking like he was talking to himself, and of course getting no response.But the car's navigator display once again showed familiar flickering and changes. This time it was not a text instruction, but a crooked navigation map.

After the engine roared for a few seconds, the black car rushed out, blending into the same dark rain and night.

……

Gong Lan anxiously rubbed her hands and walked around the room, and ran over immediately when she heard the door knock.Zhou Dong walked in clutching his stomach, and fell down as soon as he entered the door.

"Hey! How are you? Are you okay... Blood! You're bleeding!"

Gong Lan was so frightened that tears flowed down her cheeks. She wanted to help Zhou Dong up, but her thin arms and legs couldn't help her at all. She could only drag him a few steps into the room with her arms around her shoulders, and put him on the carpet. Then looked at the wound on his stomach helpless.

"What should I do? What should I do? By the way, call an ambulance... call 119... no, no, no, it's 120..."

Gong Lan took out the phone, her hands were trembling for a long time, and she pressed the wrong number, when suddenly two slender, white fingers pulled the phone away from her hand.Gong Lan yelled "Wow" in fright, sat down on her buttocks, looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and asked with trembling lips: "You, you, who are you? How did you get in?"

The person who came was a man wearing thin-rimmed glasses, a white shirt and gray trousers, with a gentle appearance and fair skin.He pushed down his glasses and said, "Sorry, I didn't close the door, and there was no answer when I knocked on the door, so I just walked in." He looked at Zhou Dong lying on the ground and said, "By the way, I'm a doctor and I need help. Is this the patient of yours?"

"Doctor?" Gong Lan just saw that the man was still carrying a medicine box in his hand, and without thinking about the reason why this man appeared here in time, she nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, doctor, please Save him!"

"That's natural, that's why I came here." The doctor smiled softly at Gong Lan, then bent down and easily picked Zhou Dong up and put him on the bed in the bedroom. He opened his toolbox, revealing the cold glow inside. Various surgical props and medicines.

Gong Lan followed behind him, watching his professional and smooth movements, her heart gradually settled down.At this time, I have time to think about some other questions-for example, who is this person?Is it someone Zhou Dong knows?Will he call the police?

She was thinking wildly when she suddenly heard movement in the living room. She thought that the door might not be closed yet, and it would be a disaster if other people saw the blood on the ground. She hurried out and saw two tall men standing in the living room. Gong Lan's legs went limp all of a sudden.

A man looks ordinary, but his eyes are as indifferent as ice. He stands by the door, leaning his back against the wall, looking at people with cold eyes, and always feels that the head on his neck is in danger; the other is handsome and wears earrings. Just like in his own home, without asking her for instructions, the owner took a can of beer from the refrigerator and drank it, let out a sigh of relief, and then turned his head to accuse her: "I said you, why don't you even open the door?" Do you know? What if a stranger saw him and thought there was a murder and called the police?"

Gong Lan subconsciously apologized: "I'm sorry..."

—Are you not strangers?

The indifferent man asked, "Where is the owner here? Why didn't you show up when you called us here?"

Gong Lan supported the wall and stammered, "I...I didn't...call...you guys..." Under the man's cold gaze, she felt as if she had made some mistake, her voice became lower and lower, her legs Shaking more and more.

That little part of the man's waist is protruding, isn't it a gun?Not a gun?It's really not a gun, is it?

Hearing her words, the man's body pressure became even lower, and his eyes were like knives.The man with the earrings said in surprise: "Isn't it?" He walked over, raised Gong Lan's chin to look at it, and said curiously: "However, you are just an ordinary person! Or..." He moved closer , lowered his voice and asked with a smirk: "Are you pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?"

Although this person was smiling, he felt more dangerous than that ice cube face.The inexplicable sense of crisis made Gong Lan feel scared, wronged and inexplicable. She wanted to cry, but couldn't help but hiccupped.

The man with the stud earrings widened his eyes, round and round like a cat.

"Who's inside?" the indifferent man asked again.

Gong Lan said, "He..."

"Dong dong dong."

The house, which had never been visited by anyone but the landlord, seemed extraordinarily popular this evening.

Several people looked at each other, and the two men forced Gong Lan to open the door with their eyes. Gong Lan didn't want to go, she had a bad feeling, but she didn't dare to refute either of these two men, so she had to go slowly to open the door. He stood hesitantly by the door for a while.

"Dong dong dong."

The person outside the door waited for a long time without a response, and knocked three more times.Under the pressure of the two gazes behind her, Gong Lan only had to bite the bullet and open the door.

Outside the door was a drug addict-like figure, bowed and slumped, pale complexion, black eyes, thin as a bamboo pole, hair so long that it completely covered the ears, and it seemed that he hadn't bathed for a long time, and he exuded a smell.

He looked at Gong Lan weakly, and said, "I'll report." After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Gong Lan's question of "what to report", pushed her away and walked in, sat on the sofa, kicked his shoes and kicked his feet. Put it away, sit curled up and start playing with your phone.

The corner of Gong Lan's mouth twitched as she was completely ignored. Looking at the group of uninvited guests occupying the dove's nest, she yelled crazily in her head—what the hell is going on?

Then there was a young man with the appearance of a student, a beautiful woman with a smoky eye, a girl with a flat chest and ponytail, a middle-aged man with a short beard who kept smoking, and an old man with gray hair and the smell of alcohol. When she came in, Gong Lan was no longer surprised—she really wasn't surprised at all!

Moreover, apart from a few words with her at the beginning, these people all ignored her existence afterwards, and there was a kind of inconspicuous but real contempt in their eyes, as if she was not of the same class as them at all.Someone went to the doctor inside, and after communicating with each other, they seemed to have reached a consensus and began to wait quietly.

Only the beauty spoke a few words to Gong Lan. Gong Lan tried to ask about their background but failed, but was tricked out of her own.After learning that she was rescued by Zhou Dong, and later helped him escape and provided him with a place to hide, the beauty lost interest in her and began to pay attention to Zhou Dong instead.

Afterwards, Gong Lan cooked for them under the orders of these people, but she could only eat leftovers in the kitchen; at night they slept in beds, sofas, benches and the living room, and she could only spread sheets on the hall floor Do not mention all kinds of tragic things such as beating the floor.

The next morning, when Zhou Dong woke up, he was shocked when he saw the room full of strangers.

The owner of the house, Gong Lan, was driven to the balcony to have a wind blowing pitifully. Looking at the rest of the people, the doctor played with a scalpel in his hand and said, "I think all of us sitting here have received help from the same person. He was also guided and summoned by him. He used to be the person we feared the most. Now, he is our boss. We either once reached out to meddle in injustice and suffered bad luck, or we were oppressed but unable to resist, or because we lost important People want revenge but can't find the right way..."

His eyes looked over everyone's faces one by one, and Zhou Dong couldn't help but twitched when he heard the last sentence.

"He will tell us how to do all the things we wanted to do but couldn't do; he will help us solve all the difficulties we encounter now. Of course it will not be free. He will give us a copy The list, everyone on it is a heinous crime, a hundred deaths cannot be redeemed. Those who don't believe it can use their own methods to verify the authenticity of the crime he pointed out, or they can collect evidence and hand it over to the police, or..." The doctor paused , said meaningfully: "Use other methods to solve it. But there are three conditions - first, no innocent people can be hurt; second, relatives, friends and subordinates should not be affected; third, no cruelty and killing."

Most people nodded, some were excited, and some looked thoughtful. Zhou Dong remembered those mysterious and precise instructions, and asked in puzzlement, "Who are you talking about?"

The doctor glanced at him and said, "Crow." He looked at Zhou Dong's shocked expression, and said, "And the first person we're going to deal with is Lu Yanwang. There's no need for me to repeat the crimes committed by His Highness the King of Hades." right?"
