In the apocalypse, you start with two knives, and all your equipment depends on drops.

Chapter 240 Proof

Upon hearing Dongfang Jin's words, a young man beside Lu Jingnian became unhappy.

"You're talking nonsense! How could a girl as good as Feng He do those things? It's obvious you're here to cause trouble because you're afraid our base's Linglang Pavilion will affect your Treasure Pavilion's business!"

Dongfang Jin raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with mockery.

"Have you ever seen anyone so brazenly causing trouble? I was just afraid you wouldn't suspect what we were up to. Also... to correct you, we were genuinely just curious, which is why we came to see this so-called Linglang Pavilion. But after seeing it, our assessment is... nothing to worry about. China is so big, losing the business of a Wolf City base is really nothing to us."

"You! You're just being stubborn!"

"But what this older brother said is true..."

A childish voice rang out from behind Lu Jingnian and the others.

When everyone turned around, they realized that the person who had spoken was someone living in the villa in front, who was currently watching the commotion from the second-floor window.

Cheng Xiyuan.

The little girl who was personally brought out of the demon cave by Yu Yao and Luo Mei, and who was also given a wooden plaque for peace.

She is now a member of the Wolf City Ascending Clouds team.

Lu Jingnian looked at her, then frowned and asked, "What do you know!"

Cheng Xiyuan laughed and said, "Last night, I saw Feng He come to see this older brother. It seemed like she wanted to give him something, but he refused. Later, she used some means to make him unable to resist, then pushed him into the house and locked the door. But after a while, she came out very angrily, and no one chased after her."

Her voice was calm and her tone sincere, making it difficult to tell whether she was telling the truth or lying.

Lu Jingnian was about to say something when Cheng Xiyuan added, "Moreover, my sister He Huan just came back, and she clearly said that she saw Feng He outside the base last night! Feng He was all alone at that time."

Lu Jingnian frowned. "You mean Feng He left the base by herself last night?"

As soon as Lu Jingnian finished speaking, another female voice rang out from the side.

"Yes, several of us saw Feng He outside, seemingly killing zombies. Is there a problem?"

Lu Jingnian and the others immediately turned around at the sound, only to find that He Huan had arrived behind them with several teammates at some point.

A young man next to Lu Jingnian scoffed, "You guys have never been close to Feng He, you never even go to his shop, so it's not impossible that you're making fake documents now!"

Nie Ting, who was next to He Huan, took out a cell phone.

"Coincidentally, we were doing teamwork training last night, and as usual, we filmed the process for review. There was a period in the video where we did capture the Feng He you mentioned. But... why does everyone say she doesn't have any special abilities? She's clearly a killing machine who can take on multiple opponents single-handedly."

As she spoke, she switched to the time period that featured Feng He and played the video for Lu Jingnian and the others.

The video does indeed show Feng He's almost ferocious figure slaughtering everyone in his path.

She even glanced in the direction the video was being filmed several times, and the red light that flashed in her eyes from time to time made Lu Jingnian's eyebrows twitch.

"Feng He...when did he develop superpowers?!"

How could someone have such a dangerous look in their eyes?

Nie Ting smiled gently, her demeanor both spirited and charming.

"We don't know anything about that either; we just happened to get a tiny bit of her in the photo. We're really not familiar with her."

Although there was video evidence, Lu Jingnian and the others still didn't understand why Feng He would leave the base in the middle of the night to kill zombies.

They still haven't returned.

There's clearly no record of her leaving the base.

Dongfang Jin and He Huan exchanged a glance from afar, then turned their heads away, pretending not to know each other.

At this point, it's best to avoid any unexpected incidents.

......

Dongfang Jin chuckled softly, leaned against the doorframe, and asked, "Gentlemen, may I go back now? I'm really sleepy!"

The young man next to Lu Jingnian immediately asked, "It's already late! What did you do last night that you still feel sleepy?"

Dongfang Jin chuckled, "How did you know I stayed out too late with my girlfriend last night?"

“Girlfriend…?” Lu Jingnian thought of Luo Mei, and of Feng He’s attempt to shake hands with Dongfang Jin at Linlang Pavilion yesterday.

Luo Mei suddenly appeared and grabbed his hand first.

Instant clarity.

"Mr. Dongfang, we are so sorry to have disturbed your rest. We will leave now."

Dongfang Jin hummed in agreement. Before closing the door, he said, "It seems your base doesn't welcome us. We'll leave on our own once we wake up."

After saying that, the door was slammed shut, showing no respect whatsoever to Lu Jingnian and his group.

Lu Jingnian frowned and turned to look at He Huan and the others, who had calm expressions.

I wanted to say something, but I didn't say it in the end.

......

When Dongfang Jin returned to the room, Luo Mei was still fast asleep.

Dongfang Jin took off his coat and lay back on the bed, pulling her and the blanket into his arms, and gently closed his eyes.

Luo Mei, however, suddenly stirred, laboriously pulling her arm out from under the covers and wrapping it around Dongfang Jin's neck.

Dongfang Jin's gaze softened as he leaned closer to Luo Mei and placed a kiss on her forehead.

Although I hate Feng He's dirty tricks.

But he did indeed get what he wanted.

No?

......
