Chapter 70


Chapter 70: It is beyond your imagination

    Mao Yu, Lu Lin, and Xiang Guo, who saw Zhan Bei Tian’s changing expression, walked around and asked: “Boss, what’s wrong?”

    They looked out the window to the opposite villa, but they did not see or hear a damn thing.

    Zhan Bei Tian stared at the villa for a while before returning his gaze. He absent-mindedly said: “I just…”

    He suddenly remembered that the apocalypse had not yet officially begun, and that Mao Yu could not detect it. So, even if he tells them, they won’t believe that the energy fluctuations he has just perceived are the power generated by a zombie during its rank advancement, and that the zombie ability he has felt is at least above the intermediate rank.

    However, now was not yet the end of the world, how can there be a zombie above the intermediate rank?

    Zhan Bei Tian’s mind flashed with doubts. The previous fluctuations came too sudden and went too fast, which made him a little uncertain. What was even more uncertain was that it either came from or had passed through from behind the villa next door.

    Mao Yu saw Zhan Bei Tian’s confused look and asked: “Boss, what happened?”

    Zhan Bei Tian returned to reality from his daze and immediately ordered: “Mao Yu, you handle things. Tell the brothers to call home and let them buy more rice noodles and store them at home. It is best to buy enough to last for a year and a half. If they have parents and unmarried siblings that are willing to relocate to G City, let them immediately buy a ticket to G City. You will get a list when they arrive. Just arrange for their accommodation.”

    Though the three people were blankly staring ahead, Mao Yu immediately said: “Yes.”

    Zhan Bei Tian then looked at Lu Lin: “Lu Lin, you go and check the most recent time a child in the Shui village was killed and who killed that child. This person’s ancestors to the 18th generation must be checked out. Also, check out a private doctor named Li Qing Tian.”

    “Yes.”

    “Xiang Guo, you will check if the buyer of this villa is Mu-Mu, and if it’s another buyer, then check the buyer’s name in the same community and see if he has bought another villa. Right, afterward, check out the person who lives in the villa next door.”

    “Yes.”

    “Motherf*cker…. You get in.” Sun Zi Hao’s angry voice suddenly rang from the door.

    The four people in the living room looked at the door and saw Sun Zi Hao pushing a man in security guard clothing.

    Sun Zi Hao said: “Boss, this is the one, he told me he saw Mu-Mu leave the villa area that night.”

    The security guard said helplessly: “I really don’t know where Mr. Mu went.”

    Zhan Bei Tian looked at him with cold eyes. He did not say anything, just walked to the sofa, sat down, and began folding the letter in his hand a little bit, like treating a baby, folded it very gently and carefully, afraid of tearing it.

    Mao Yu, Lu Lin, and Xiang Guo walked behind Zhan Bei Tian and looked at the security guard who hasn’t said anything.

    The security guard felt like he was inside a triad meeting, and he could not help but swallow his throat.

    Just now, he seems to hear that the person who caught him called the opposite person as “Boss.” Is he really a triad boss?

    If this is the case, it is no wonder that Mr. Mu wants to sneak away and to prevent others from discovering his whereabouts.

    Mao Yu caught the fear flashed in the security guard’s eyes, and sneered: “Old Lin, when was the last time you killed?”

    Lu Lin and Mao Yu are comrades-in-arms for many years, and they have long been familiar with each other actions.

    He carelessly replied: “That was yesterday morning. Those people were really disobedient, and they were rewarded with one bullet each. Otherwise, they would think that I can be easily bullied.”

    Xiang Guo looked at Lu Lin with a puzzled look, that’s what really happened yesterday morning. Everything about them killing those foreigners was revealed here, right in front of this man, aren’t they afraid of being punish by the boss?

    Mao Yu smiled and said: “You are still the same, you can’t always look down on the gun barrels and solve everything with a gun. You are really ferocious.”

    Lu Lin glanced at him: “I only felt a bit more ferocious than when you killed that whole family.”

    Mao Yu had on a look of nostalgia, and said: “In fact, I like to watch them beg for mercy. Like I said, I did not have the desire to do such a thing, and they should have remembered how to get on their knees to beg for mercy.”

    Lu Lin looked to the security guard: “You can rest assured that you will remember it very quickly. As long as someone does not satisfy the boss, we can take care of their family at any time.”

    Xiang Guo heard this and knew they wanted to scare the security guard.

    The security guard was slightly panicky and was doubtful about their words. He thought that no one would blatantly admit who they killed, but after thinking about it, since the other party is a triad, there is nothing they won’t dare to do. They talked about killing people, but since there is no evidence, nobody who heard it can prove anything.

    In addition, it doesn’t matter if you are guilty of the crimes. If you are afraid of getting your family in trouble, you will speak. The security guard is really worried that the other person is really talking about doing it, and that he will go find and make trouble with his family.

    At this time, Sun Zi Hao walked behind the security guard and gave him a kick behind his right leg. The security guard’s right leg slammed to the ground, scaring him from trying anything.

    “Sir, I really don’t know where Mr. Mu went. He gave me 70,000 yuan that day, just to let me turn off the surveillance cameras for 10-minutes. However, I was afraid that other security guards might find out, so I made sure the monitoring equipment was broken so as to create the illusion of equipment failure, the rest after that I really do not know anything.”

    Zhan Bei Tian stopped his action of folding the letter, and stared at him coldly: “Then you really saw him leave the villa zone?”

    The security guard said hurriedly: “No, Mr. Mu warned me that if someone asked about this, I should say that he had left the villa area.”

    “FML, you were really lying to me.” Sun Zi Hao gripped his hand to the guard’s head: “You spoke so honestly when I asked you to go to the street monitoring department to watch the video, did you really not see Mu-Mu?”

    The security guard was a little embarrassed: “This…this…”

    Sun Zi Hao: “You dared to deceive us, be careful of what you say next or we will kill you.”

    “I really don’t know what Mr. Mu looked like. He has rarely gone out since he lived in the villa. Even food is usually sent to the door. Even if he wants to go out, his face is covered or he would wear large sunglasses or wear masks before going out, so even if he stood in front of me, I may not know that he is Mr. Mu.”

    Zhan Bei Tian saw that he was not lying, asked: “Do you know about his family?”

    The security guard shook his head. “I don’t know. We only know that his family is very rich. The villas here are the most expensive in the area. There are also many luxury cars. The rest, I don’t know anything, and I have never seen his family come to him. In the half-year that he lived here, we have only seen you and a Mr. Li come to his villa, the rest are to bring delivery.”

    Zhan Bei Tian looked at Sun Zi Hao, gestured that he put the man down.

    The security guard then rushed out and ran out of the villa.

    Lu Lin sneered: “There is nothing close to being a security guard in that guy, he was so scared just like this. If these guys are considered as security guards, then I am really worried about the safety of the residents in this villa area.”

    Mao Yu did not say anything, he went straight out of the living room and made a call.

    Lu Lin and Xiang Guo also left the room to check the things that were ordered by the boss.

    The main hall was quiet again. Sun Zi Hao looked at Zhan Bei Tian, ​​who seems not angry. He felt drums beating in his heart. In fact, he hoped that the boss would slap him. Now that the boss said nothing, he was even guiltier: “Boss, I will go to ask if the people in the villa area had seen Mu-Mu.”

    He left the hall and chased after Lu Lin. He sighed with a long breath: “When the boss is silent, it is more terrible than when he is angry.”

   Lu Lin teased and smiled: “Kid, he let you take care of a man, but you have lost the man. The fact that the boss has not peeled your skin just now is already the best thing to you.”

    Mao Yu: “Lu Lin, don’t say that again. I see that he is very upset now.”

    Sun Zi Hao sighed helplessly: “Yes, what mission were you doing this time?”

    Lu Lin looked at Mao Yu and said: “It is not a task, just went to meet with the people from Y country and made an exchange.”

    Sun Zi Hao wondered: “What exchange?”

    Lu Lin said: “It’s not convenient to say now, I will tell you later. In short, this transaction is very exciting.”

    Mao Yu added: “It’s also amazing, beyond your imagination.”

    Xiang Guo also said: “It was also very dangerous. You must have thought that we would be pursued as soldiers.”

    The more they say, the more curious Sun Zi Hao became: “Do you want to dangle my curiosity? Saying only half and not saying the other half, what do you mean by this?”

    The three laughed and said nothing. Lu Lin and Xiang Guo took the car and left. Mao Yu took out his mobile phone and called someone.

    When Sun Zi Hao saw nothing was said to him, he took out his mobile phone and called the people who he sent out, asking them to look for Mu Yi Fan in the villa area.

    In the villa, Zhan Bei Tian also took out his mobile phone and tried to call Mu Yi Fan, but the other party’s mobile phone was shut down.

    He bit his lip, hung up the phone, and shook his hand. He stared intently at the name in the phone book on the screen, which reads—Mr. Mu.

    Zhan Bei Tian quickly changed the name to Mu-Mu, and then sent a message to the other party: [Mu-Mu, I am back.]

Chapter 69


Chapter 69: A wave of energy fluctuations

    Before Sun Zi Hao went to sleep, he knew that Mu Yi Fan had come to the living room to watch TV. Since he was worried that Mu Yi Fan might need him, he was sleeping near the door, and listened in to TV all night. There was just sound, and, without any abnormal movements, he slept until dawn.

    When he got up, the TV in the living room was still on. He turned off the TV and was ready to go out for morning exercises. However, the front door that was clearly locked was not locked.

    Sun Zi Hao thought that it might be that Mu-Mu went out very early, so the anti-theft lock was opened.

    However, just in case, he went to Mu Yi Fan’s room to see if the person was really absent. He knocked a few times, did not hear a response, and determined that the person really went out before turning and leaving for his morning exercise.

    After he had finished exercising and came back, he also brought back the breakfast that he had bought on the way.

    After setting the breakfast table, Sun Zi Hao went to Mu Yi Fan’s room and knocked on the door, but still no one respond.

    Suddenly he remembered that Mu-Mu’s body was still sick, and he was worried that the man in the room might had an accident. He opened the door, but there was no one inside, and the quilts on the bed were all laid out neatly.

    Sun Zi Hao frowned and scolded: “Going out and didn’t even say anything.”

    Then the stationery on the table caught his attention.

    Sun Zi Hao took a look and it happened to be something written to his boss.

    Mu Yi Fan was a little funny. At this day and age, he still writes letters. He wasn’t in the army, yet he needs to communicate by sending letters.

    Sun Zi Hao originally didn’t want to read it, but when his eyes swept across the word “leaving” on the letter, he no longer care about stealing a look from the private letter, picked it up and read it. Then his face changed greatly.

    He ran out of the room and ran the security room at the gate and asked: “Excuse me, have you seen Mr. Mu in villa A-101 leave?”

    Two of the security guards shook their heads, and a third security guard said: “I saw that he left last night, I don’t know if he came back later.”

    Sun Zi Hao looked at the tall and thin security guard: “When did he leave?”

    “At around 12 o’clock last night.”

    Sun Zi Hao asked again: “Was he driving or walking?”

    The security guard did not answer immediately, as if he was thinking about it. After a few seconds, he said: “Walking.”

    “Did you see him taking a taxi when he went out?”

    The security guard shook his head.

    Sun Zi Hao grabbed his own head with irritation.

    He didn’t know what Mu-Mu’s mobile phone number was, and he didn’t want to call and ask the boss who was on a mission. He didn’t know Mu-Mu’s appearance. In the sea of people, how would he find someone?

    Then Sun Zi Hao thought of something, he quickly asked: “Do you have any surveillance videos from last night, I think…”

    He wanted to see the face under Mu-Mu gauze, but before he finished asking, the other security guards interrupted him: “Our monitoring equipment is broken, the previous video is gone, you see, we are currently repairing it.”

    Sun Zi Hao looked at the busy maintenance man, depressed and frowned. The monitoring equipment was fine at all other times, but it’s such a coincidence that it went bad at this exact time.

    Now he has to find the street monitoring department for help, but the monitoring department did not install cameras inside the villa area. Although there was one camera near the villa area, there was nobody found wearing gauze.

    Sun Zi Hao suspected that Mu-Mu left after removing the gauze, so he took the security guard who had saw Mu Yi Fan left to the monitoring department to identify Mu-Mu on video, but still could not find the person.

    The situation became an emergency for Sun Zi Hao. When the boss comes back, how will he explain this matter to the boss?

    After that, he sent a few more people to look for him but there was still no news.

    Five days passed in a blinking of an eye, and, when Sun Zi Hao was still looking for a certain someone, Zhan Bei Tian returned from the mission.

    Sitting in the living room, as he called to find people to continue looking for Mu Yi Fan’s whereabouts, Sun Zi Hao looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows and saw the off-road vehicle stopped outside. The phone in his hand became unstable and almost fell to the ground.

    It was Zhan Bei Tian, Xiang Guo, Lu Lin, Mao Yu, and Yan Ming who came down from the car.

    Sun Zi Hao hurriedly hang up the phone and opened the door for Zhan Bei Tian to come in.

    Zhan Bei Tian looked for Mu Yi Fan as soon as he entered the door. After seeing no one, his light mood turned dark and his face looked solemn.

    Xiang Guo, when he saw Sun Zi Hao with red eyes, became worried and said with a smile: “Zi Hao, you had only to stay at home for a few days and sleep well, how can you be more sleep deprived than those of us who went out for the mission? You seem to have not slept for several days.”

    Zhan Bei Tian noticed this at this moment, his brow rises slightly.

    Sun Zi Hao, who didn’t have the mood to joke with them, took a step and said, “Come in, we have to talk.”

    Xiang Guo walked into the living room, sat down on the sofa, and immediately stretched out: “I’m totally exhausted.”

    Sun Zi Hao looked at Zhan Bei Tian, ​​who was indifferent, and touched the letter in his trouser pocket. After hesitating, he took the letter and handed it to Zhan Bei Tian: Boss, sorry, I didnt look after Mu-Mu carefully. This is the letter that Mu-Mu had left for you.”

    Zhan Bei Tian suddenly has a bad premonition, he took the letter and opened it.


   [Bei Tian:

    When you see this letter, my time under the light has ended, and my body can no longer keep alive till the day you come back.

    Even if I can wait until that day, I don’t want you to see my sickness, and I don’t want to see you being sad for me, so I am leaving early.

   Don’t be sad for me, think that I just went around the world, maybe I am having fun in another country right now. Maybe one day, I will appear in front of you again and tell you all about it. I’m off to travel around the world, hehe.

   By the way, I don’t know how to take out the bead from my body to give it to you. If I ever find a way to take it out, and I am very sorry for this, but I will return it to you whenever I have the opportunity.

    That’s it, Bei Tian, ​​goodbye.]


   Zhan Bei Tian saw the last three words, and his pupils shrank, tightly holding on to the letter.

   Next to him, Sun Zi Hao was feeling guilty, and he said miserably: “Boss, I didn’t know that Mu-Mu was so sick. I only thought that he was only a little sick. At that time, I felt that he was a grown young master and could function normally, so why should people take care of him? But now, in retrospect, he should be very sick and cannot even hold a spoon, even walking was very difficult, no wonder when he was eating breakfast, the spoon kept falling into his bowl again and again. It took three minutes for him to walk from the first floor to the second floor.”

    If Mu Yi Fan was present at this time, he would be laughing at this.

    He was obviously a zombie, but Sun Zi Hao had made it out that he was seriously ill, nonetheless it also improves the credibility of the words in his letter.

    Mao Yu’s eyebrows twisted: “Is it so serious? Then why didn’t you find out anything wrong with him?”

    “I did, I saw that he was so slow, and I asked him if he was not feeling well, but he lied to me that he was just doing slow motion exercise.”

    Mao Yu: “…”

    Zhan Bei Tian raised his bloodshot eyes and asked, “When was this?”

    Sun Zi Hao answered: “The day you left.”

    Zhan Bei Tian recalled the situation on that day and suddenly squeezed the letter.

    It is no wonder that the person who usually talks a lot would have nothing to say to him when he left.

    Also, the day before leaving, Mu-Mu didn’t sleep, just ate, and only said a few words.

    At that time, he felt a little strange. Later, after thinking that it might have something to do with Qing Tian Bead, he didn’t think too deep about it.

    Looking back now, Mu-Mu should have found that his body was not right, but he was afraid to be exposed in front of him, so he kept sleeping.

    Xiang Guo asked anxiously: “You didn’t send someone to look for him?”

    Sun Zi Hao quickly explained: “Of course I sent someone to look for him, but I don’t know Mu-Mu’s cell phone number, nor what he looked like. I also went to the monitoring department to look at the video, but there was no person with gauze on their face. I thought that he might have took off the gauze, so I went to find a security guard who saw Mu-Mu leaving to help identify him. Looking for his traces, it’s like they just evaporated from the human world.”

    Lu Lin thought for a moment and asked, “Why didn’t you look at the surveillance video of the villa area?”

    Sun Zi Hao replied with angry voice: “I had first thought of watching the surveillance video of the villa area, but the monitoring equipment malfunctioned.”

    Mao Yu, Xiang Guo, Lu Lin were silent.

    Zhan Bei Tian suddenly turned an eye: “He is likely still in the villa area.”

  “In the villa area? But the security guard saw him leave.” Sun Zi Hao could not believe it, his eyes wide-opened.

    He has been working hard for five days, and person is still in the villa area? How can this be?

    Mao Yu joked: “The security guard must be very trustworthy? Is the monitoring equipment that bad?”

    Sun Zi Hao’s looks changed: “You mean… Mu-Mu had contacted the security guard early that morning and colluded with him to destroy the evidence?”

    He suddenly thought of the day he was asked to buy pizza, Mu-Mu specifically let the security guard at the gate come in, is that the time he planned a collusion?

    By the way, the security guard that saw Mu-Mu leaving and the security guard who went to the street monitoring department to watch the video with him were the same person (who delivered the pizza). Now that he thinks about it, that security guard was too eager to cooperate with him.

    “My goodness, I will go look for the security guard to question him again.” Sun Zi Hao rushed out of the villa.

    Zhan Bei Tian stared at the letter in his hand. From the font, it can be seen how much effort it took to write the letter.

    Licking his lips roughly with his throat rolled up and down, he closed his bloodshot eyes, raised his hand and rubbed his eyelids. The others could not see the emotions in his eyes, but Mao Yu could feel the boss’s heart was very heavy.

    Lu Lin bit his cheek and he hesitantly asked: “Boss, what was wrong with Mu-Mu?”

    As he heard, Zhan Bei Tian slowly opened his eyes: “Bone Cancer late stage.”

    The three people stared blankly

    They didn’t think that the person who had a special chat with them that night was that sick.

    The atmosphere in the living room suddenly fell into a faint sadness, and no one say anything, making the whole room particularly quiet.

    Suddenly, a wave of energy fluctuations caught the attention of Zhan Bei Tian.

    His face changed, and he stood up and stared through the right window, watching the villa next door.
