I walked heavily, pushing open the dormitory door to find Wrench and the others huddled around the table, whispering.
When they saw me come in with a bunch of stuff, they all froze.
"What's the matter? Only a day and a night, and you don't recognize me?"
I smiled, locked the door, and put the bundle on my bed.
"Brother, it's so good that you're okay," Ba Yi cried out, running over to hug me tightly, tears streaming down his face.
This kid has such shallow tears.
Wrench and Chen Weiqiang were more reserved, turning their worried looks into joy, "You're back in one piece."
Screwdriver just gave a silent thumbs-up, "Brother!"
Li Jianguo, on the other hand, maintained his indifferent stance, looked at me, and asked, "Do you know the offshore medical ship is here?"
"Oh, you heard too?"
I patted Ba Yi's back, telling him to stop crying; I wasn't dead.
Li Jianguo stood up, glaring at me, "I got wind of it. Someone said I need to kill a person, and then I'll be sent out."
"Who do they want you to kill?" Wrench and the others asked, their faces serious.
I had a bad feeling. Could it be me they want to kill to silence?
It wouldn't be surprising if the Military Advisor wanted to burn bridges.
"You guys talk, I'm going out for a bit!" Li Jianguo avoided answering directly and got up to leave.
As he passed by me, I grabbed his arm, "Wait, you're not planning to escape with us?"
"I want revenge. I'm not leaving the KK Park!"
Li Jianguo shook off my hand and walked out the door without looking back.
Chen Weiqiang sighed, "He's lost it, completely turned into a killing tool for others."
I forced a smile, not wanting to discuss Li Jianguo's actions.
So, I briefly recounted what happened in town, including Ning and the others coming to the park to prepare for organ sales.
Then we discussed how to kill the doctors on the offshore medical ship and use the method I learned at the dead general's house to successfully drive the medical refrigerated truck out.
Wrench helplessly said, "Liu Shiyi is wary of me. He didn't tell me the details, just had Mao Dinglun follow up on it."
It's only natural they'd be wary of him since he was close to us.
"Yang Lianing, that pervert, seemed unusually excited at work today and even rewarded me with a thousand yuan."
Screwdriver frowned, puzzled, placing the money on the table.
Normally, they couldn't stand each other. If not for the park's merger, Yang Lianing would have already ruined Screwdriver.
Usually, Liu Shiyi personally rewarded cash for big deals. Today, Yang Lianing rewarded Screwdriver a thousand yuan for a fifty thousand deal.
When something's out of the ordinary, there must be something up.
"I'll go find him, you guys wait here."
No time to shower or change clothes, I ran out the door.
Whether we could escape depended on a fight to the death tonight.
I ran non-stop to Yang Lianing's residence, just as he was leaving with a briefcase.
"...You're back?"
He paused, quickly pulling me in and locking the door.
Scanning the large room, I coldly said, "Are you surprised I made it back alive?"
"What are you saying? Of course, I hoped you'd come back alive!" Yang Lianing set down his briefcase, "The offshore medical ship came early, did you know?"
"Where are you going? I heard it when I came back with Ning and the others."
"I'm going to see Ning. Mao Dinglun is currently entertaining them and will escort a batch of matched or worthless pigs to the basement for surgery. You go there at 3 AM, kill the doctors and nurses, then take their clothes and drive out.
Don't worry, I'll clear the patrol around and delay Ning and the others, but I have one condition: you must kill Mao Dinglun in the basement!
Without Mao Dinglun, it'll be easier for me to kill that perverted Liu Shiyi!"
Yang Lianing was eager to kill Liu Shiyi and Mao Dinglun. Now that the opportunity had finally come, how could he hold back?
"Are you sure the offshore medical ship is leaving tonight? Will they take live people..."
I was suspicious if Yang Lianing was setting me up. Would he really be so kind to let me go?
Even if they grabbed pigs from the Victory Park for kidney harvesting, there's no need for Ning to personally come unless...
"Live people? Blood slaves, yes, especially those with rare blood types. They will be kept alive and bled constantly.
Don't you want to leave? This is a rare opportunity. I'm telling you, the offshore medical ship only comes once or twice a year; you might not catch it every time!"
Yang Lianing's words reminded me of Li Jianguo's wife. Could it be possible that she's still alive?
Or maybe, she has been kept as a blood slave to serve the elite with rare blood types.
"Alright, I'll sneak into the basement at 3 AM to kill Mao Dinglun. You clear the patrols in advance, and contact me after I escape."
Given the chance to escape, I definitely wouldn't miss it. Who wants to stay here and die fighting in black-market fights?
If you fear wolves ahead and tigers behind, you'll never achieve great things.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Besides, I killed five of Pai Tuen's brothers. Even if the Military Advisor suppressed this for now, it doesn't mean Crazy Killer wouldn't find a way to deal with me later.
"After you escape, use this phone to contact me. I'll arrange your escape route and we can discuss cooperation."
Yang Lianing handed me a Huawei phone, followed by a stack of money from the drawer.
It looked like ten thousand, for my escape.
As I was about to turn on the phone, Yang Lianing stopped me, "Don't turn it on now, they might trace it."
"I'll head back to the dorm, and we'll act at 3 AM."
"They have medical supplies on the truck. No need to buy from the park, it might raise suspicion."
"I know, don't forget our deal."
I took the phone and money, and quickly left his place.
My heart was pounding.
Back at the dorm, I couldn't calm my excitement.
"How did it go?" Wrench and the others eagerly asked when they saw me.
"Action at 3 AM tonight. We'll go straight to the basement, deal with the doctors and Mao Dinglun, then drive the offshore medical refrigerated truck out."
Screwdriver clenched his fist, "Finally leaving this hellhole, damn it!"
"Great, I've been dreaming of going home!" Ba Yi hugged Chen Weiqiang, almost kissing him.
"Brothers, get ready. Tonight, we act decisively!"
Wrench picked up his AK, determined, "I'll go fetch the bullets I hid. We'll meet at the basement door at 3 AM."
