Chapter 53 We are 'accomplices'
Chu Xuange, wearing black pajamas and with wet hair, came out of the bathroom. Seeing that she was still struggling with the box, he said as he walked towards the kitchen, "Baby, why don't you go and collect the location card from the chat channel?"
Pei Hening sent the acquisition message to the chat channel, and unsurprisingly, she received a "location card" today!
Three!
After confirming that she had obtained the location card, Chu Xuange said, "I'll take you to take care of some things tomorrow."
——
Seventeen days of survival on the highway.
Pei Hening looked at Chu Xuange, who had called her early in the morning, and asked curiously, "Aren't you running for your life today?"
Chu Xuange unscrewed the bottle of mineral water, took a sip, and said with a smile, "They probably won't have time to catch me these next few days."
When he left the Highway Police Station checkpoint yesterday, he gave them some small gifts.
Sigh, they released some fugitives...
Of course, he didn't do it on purpose. He's an outstanding young man, a truly good person!
Based on the difficulty of arrest and priority levels, the Highway Patrol would definitely send bounty hunters to hunt down those fugitives first.
He should be able to have a few days of peace now; he'll definitely be thinking about his wallet!
"Baby, why bother with location tracking?"
Pei Hening paused for a moment, then understood what he meant.
—He wants to take her with him to kill [but what's the point?].
She remained silent for a long while.
Chu Xuange simply stayed quietly by her side, without urging her on.
Pei Hening's voice was hoarse: "Okay, I'll locate him now."
He said, "Don't worry, I'll be with you."
[Why bother?] He was driving with one hand.
After losing an arm, he faced many inconveniences in his life.
He narrowly escaped death several times, only managing to survive thanks to his intense hatred for that woman.
He even dreamed of chopping that damned woman into mincemeat!
Suddenly, he noticed that a parallel lane had appeared on each side of the road!
[Why bother?] Thinking of the players he had met before, those people would give him some supplies because they saw that he was disabled.
A glint flashed in his eyes, and he slowed down; it seemed someone was about to deliver something to him again.
There's a motorhome in the right lane and a sports car in the left lane.
They look quite wealthy!
We'll be able to get a lot of benefits this time!
The RV took the lead and drove alongside him.
[Why bother?] He rolled down the car window and shouted into the RV, "Friend, friend, I'm disabled. Can you help me?"
Chu Xuange rolled down the car window, his eyes cold and his lips curled into a smile as he sized him up—this piece of trash dares to lay a hand on the baby?
"That's really pitiful~ Stop the car~ I'll bring you something~"
[Why bother?] His eyes lit up, and he stepped on the brakes!
Chu Xuange got out of the car carrying a bag and walked towards him: "To prevent you from lying to me, you have to get out of the car so I can see if you are really disabled!"
[Why bother?] Seeing that he actually carried the things, the smile in his eyes deepened. He opened the car door and got out, eagerly saying, "Look, I'm disabled. What supplies are you giving me?"
Chu Xuange sneered, "Of course, I'll send you to your death."
As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed the collar of the man who had said "Why bother?" and yanked him hard!
Pull out the rope from the bag and neatly tie the person up tightly!
[Why bother?] By the time he realized what was happening, he was already tied up tightly and thrown to the ground!
[Why bother?] Confused, and suppressing her anger, she asked, "Friend? What do you mean? Is there some misunderstanding?"
Chu Xuange lifted his foot and rubbed his fingers together: "There's no misunderstanding."
At that moment, Pei Hening's car hurriedly pulled up beside them.
She got out of the car and saw this scene.
"Gogo, you're quick!"
Chu Xuange tossed her the dagger he was wearing at his waist, looking completely innocent: "I just did what a subordinate should do. The rest is up to the boss."
Pei Hening: "Okay."
[Why bother?] Seeing Pei Hening, I understand everything!
"Didi, what are you doing! You've been hurting me from beginning to end! I haven't hurt you at all! Not only do you not feel guilty, but you even want to kill me! Where is your conscience?!"
"How can you, a woman, be so petty?"
Pei Hening's expression was cold, her hand holding the dagger trembling slightly. She said, "You should have thought of this day when you bumped into me in the 'Competition' game."
The man's arm was severed by her, greatly affecting his ability to survive; they were already locked in a life-or-death struggle.
She shouldn't have been so soft-hearted!
Pei Hening decisively used the skill [I'll kill you and I'll be your only son]!
[I'll Kill You and Be the Only Child] (Rank A): The struggle for family fortune has always been like this! Select a player as your 'brother'. The 'brother' is controlled for three seconds and says the line "We are born of the same root, why are we fighting each other so fiercely!" Kill him within three seconds and you can inherit his money, items, and skills except for his talents! Costs 20 mana, cooldown time: 25 minutes.
[Why bother?] He shouted uncontrollably, "We are all born of the same root, why are you so eager to destroy me!"
Pei Hening, her face expressionless, decisively pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into his heart!
The dagger plunged deep into [Why bother?]'s chest. He struggled violently for a moment, then his head lolled to the side!
—[Why bother?] Death!
Pei Hening stared intently at the scene before her, belatedly realizing how frightening it was.
She killed someone!
Seeing that she wasn't in a good state, Chu Xuange quickly walked over to her side.
Grasp her hand holding the dagger and forcefully pull it out!
Blood splattered!
It was sprinkled on their faces and bodies!
The scene was bloody!
He pulled Pei Hening up, completely disregarding the bloodstains on both of them, and held her tightly in his arms.
He noticed her trembling involuntarily, buried his head in the crook of her neck, chuckled lightly, and said cheerfully, "Baby, I tied her up, I provided the dagger, now we're accomplices!"
As if sensing her fear, he joked, "If he becomes a vengeful ghost and comes to claim my life, I'll be part of it!"
Pei Hening smelled his scent and felt his warm and powerful embrace, and gradually calmed down.
Chu Xuange: "Feeling better? Shall we deal with this guy's things?"
The relics of [Why bother again] are 119 copper coins, 21 vehicle upgrade cards, 4 vehicle repair cards, and some vehicle upgrade materials, food, and ingredients.
She felt a little uncomfortable looking at these things.
Everything except copper coins, vehicle upgrade cards, and vehicle repair cards was listed in the chat channel at extremely low prices.
The items were gone in seconds as soon as they were placed on the table.
Seeing that she was staring at the corpse of "[Why bother again?]" and was in low spirits, Chu Xuange smiled and coaxed her, "Boss, how about I cook you a Manchu Han Imperial Feast to comfort your wounded little heart?"
Pei Hening's gaze fell on Chu Xuange: "I want to be a vegetarian."
Chu Xuange kicked the corpse of [Why bother again?] off the road and replied, "Fine."
