Chapter 608: Chapter 608: Caught Off Guard
Those at the Western-style house selling goods, including Su Xiangzhe, hadn’t expected Lu Hao and Lin Xiuyuan to come with a group of people to pick them up so soon.
“Can we leave now? Is everything settled?”
Su Xiangzhe asked.
“Settled, perfectly,”
Lin Xiuyuan signaled to everyone that all was OK with a hand gesture.
“By the way, Xiao Hao, I just sneaked in there, but Sister Xiao Jin and Qiqi weren’t there. I’m afraid they don’t even know we’re about to leave,”
Huang Yunxiang pulled Lu Hao aside and said worriedly.
Lu Hao thought for a moment and replied, “No worries, Auntie. You all go ahead first, I’ll wait in the base for Xiao Jin; she and Qiqi might be on their way here.”
Huang Yunxiang nodded. That was indeed the only choice, and moreover, Su Jin and her group hadn’t planned to leave for the S city base with them through the Teleportation Array. Firstly, because Lian Jiyue was with them, and secondly, it seemed like they also intended to take a detour to Xing Taian’s place near the F city base.
“Xiao Tian, Da Ming, you both need to be careful on your way,”
Wu Xingye, seeing that the group was quickly ready to leave, couldn’t help but express his concern again.
“Uncle Wu, see you next time,”
Lin Xiuyuan got into the car driven by Lu Hao. They were ready to enter the Space after leaving the city gates.
“See you next time,”
Wu Xingye sighed. Watching the car gradually getting farther away, he murmured to himself…
Lu Hao took his family out of the base’s main gate, then made a round trip and came back. Of course, by the time he returned, the car was empty apart from himself.
It was just a pity that he couldn’t go back to where Su Jin and the others lived because he had just taken a Face-changing pill the day before, so he had to wait another two days before Lu Hao could show up again.
Su Jin and Qiqi had indeed gone to the Western-style house, only to find that the sellers at the door had changed. Su Jin then realized something.
“Let’s go back and enter the Space; there must be something wrong,”
Su Jin held back Qiqi, who was about to move forward, and said.
Qiqi was also curious why everyone had suddenly disappeared. After Su Jin’s reminder, she realized that they must have gone into the Space first.
“Then let’s hurry, Sister Xiao Jin,”
Qiqi said in haste.
“Okay, no need to panic; look, those people are clearly from the True Martial Sect. Since they have managed the handover here properly, there’s definitely nothing serious,”
Seeing even Wu Xingye happily selling goods by the side, Su Jin felt less urgent. She then walked back to the rented house with Qiqi.
Han Jin and his group had been waiting at the base gate for two full hours before they finally entered.
Would they have to wait if Liu Jianyuan were still in charge?
Han Jin couldn’t wait to replace the new Base Leader of the F city base right away, but unfortunately, his father had told him he was here only for Long Aotian’s group and could not act rashly in other matters.
“Second Young Master, isn’t that Su Jin over there?”
Qian Hong thought he was seeing things. How could he encounter Su Jin here at this time?
Every time he remembered being beaten down to nothing but his underwear in front of so many people by a woman, he felt that Su Jin was the nightmare he could never forget in his life.
Han Jin quickly looked in the direction Qian Hong pointed. Although he only saw the woman’s side profile and her back, he was immediately sure that it was undoubtedly Su Jin.
In this Apocalypse, no other woman had skin as fair and a demeanor as clean as Su Jin’s.
He wanted to chase after her, but she quickly disappeared into the crowd.
“It’s her, and the little girl with her.”
Sun Manhui also came along this time, and she saw Su Jin and Mao Qiqi too.
“Strange, didn’t they run away from B city’s base early on?”
Han Jin muttered to himself, could it be… they really have some connection with Long Aotian and Chen Daming?
But the most pressing matter right now was to find Long Aotian and the others first.
Within the space, the whole family had arrived. After Lu Hao drove around the base for a while without spotting Su Jin and Qiqi, he parked the car in a parking lot and then found a secluded place to enter the space.
When Su Jin and Qiqi entered the space, the whole family was already assembled.
After seeing both of them come in, Lu Hao finally felt relieved and shared with them what had happened that morning.
So that’s how it was. Su Jin understood and also gave a thumbs up to her family’s reaction speed; they had managed to sort everything out in less than two hours.
“The storage bag is still locked in the car, Xiuyuan and the others couldn’t take it with them.”
Lu Hao said, and of course, he couldn’t bring it in either, so he had no choice but to hide it in a secret compartment inside the car for the time being.
“Good, tell me the location, I’ll get it later.”
Even though it was safe inside the base and the storage bag was an ordinary and inconspicuous item that shouldn’t pose any danger in the short term, she still planned to retrieve it as soon as possible.
“Hehe, we plan to rest in the space for two days before returning to S city’s base.”
Lin Xiuyuan stretched lazily and said, their Face-changing pills hadn’t worn off yet, but this unexpected holiday felt so relaxing.
“I can finally catch up on my dramas properly. Are there any good TV shows you guys can recommend?”
Nie Qing walked out holding a tablet and said, it had been days since he had a proper chance to watch any dramas.
Li Xiuying and Lin Yunguo smiled happily looking at their family–the more lively it got, the happier they were.
…
Bu Hong was also surprised for a good while after receiving the message passed on by Wu Xingye. Just now, Long Aotian and his group had left?!
However, upon learning that they had left a batch of supplies for True Martial Sect to continue selling on their behalf, Bu Hong couldn’t help but laugh; their reaction was indeed swift.
But this was good, as the Han family must have received news about Long Aotian and his people. Now that they had already left the base, he didn’t need to go out of his way to protect them anymore and could focus solely on dealing with those other people.
At this time, Han Jin was still unaware of this news. After Chen Liang arranged accommodations for them, they went straight to the small western-style building. In Han Jin’s words, they needed to act swiftly to catch them off guard.
But they quickly realized that the ones caught off guard were themselves.
“What? Long Aotian and his group have already left?!”
Han Jin grabbed the collar of a person selling supplies and asked.
“Yes, yes, they left early this morning, saying they were going to continue collecting supplies for the people,”
Wang Yongnan swallowed saliva and replied, also relieved that luckily Long Aotian and his party had left quickly.
“What brings you to True Martial Sect, may I ask?”
Wu Xingye walked out with a displeased expression, looking at this unfriendly group of people.
“Hmph, we’re just here to find Long Aotian and his crew, you better not meddle.”
Han Jin said.
“Well, that’s truly unfortunate. The customers here can see clearly that Long Aotian and his people left early this morning. We’ve already completed the handover the day before yesterday, so I suggest you leave now and not disrupt our business,”
Wu Xingye said.
