Chapter 164: Explosion
Long Yu held Yao Ran's hand and said, "Follow my footsteps."
"Alright." Yao Ran nodded and walked behind Long Yu, carefully following his footprints.
With him leading the way, it was easier for her to walk, and they slowly left the Ling Yuan apartment complex under the darkness. When they arrived near the office building, they did not enter but hid in another building and observed the situation.
The two observed the surroundings for more than half an hour before arriving at the office building. Seeing that snow had blocked the door, they looked around for a while and found a broken window that was not blocked by snow.
Long Yu checked around and made sure there was no one before turning around and helping Yao Ran climb up the window.
They moved cautiously while scanning their surroundings. While they were looking for the snowmobile, a group of people were heading to an office building five hundred meters away. More than ten snowmobiles drove at a fast speed toward the outskirts of Juncheng City. The leading snowmobile carried two people, and the passengers held guns and looked at a device with beeping red dots on the screen.
A few minutes later, the passenger on the leading snowmobile pointed to an office building not far away. The driver nodded and changed direction, and the others followed suit.
Soon, the drivers parked their snowmobiles in front of the office building. They left three of them guarding the snowmobiles while the others followed the man with the device into the building.
They raised their weapons and walked inside vigilantly. After checking the lower floor, the leader made a hand sign, and the group went upstairs.
Five minutes later, they arrived at the top floor. Seeing more than twenty frozen corpses there, they quickly checked them one by one, collecting the black badge on their collars.
When all the badges were collected, one of them said, "Captain, Yao Yuechuan is not here." The leader looked at the device and carefully searched the floor. In the corner of the floor, he found a black badge with a silver emblem, which he picked up and put away.
He then turned to look at his subordinates and said, "Bring the body. Return to headquarters."
"Yes, Captain."
At his command, they quickly took out the body bags from their backpacks.
After zipping up the last corpse, the leader pressed the watch on his left hand and said, "We will send the bodies down."
The next second, another voice came from the watch, "Roger that."
The leader nodded to the others to move the bodies, and then his subordinates picked up the body bags one by one and threw them from the broken window.
Below, three men who were guarding the snowmobiles quickly dragged the body bags and piled them up. When all the bodies were collected, they tied them up and attached the ropes to three snowmobiles.
When the leader came out from the office building with the others, they got on their snowmobiles and dragged the frozen bodies away.
At the same time, Yao Ran and Long Yu finally found the snowmobiles hidden behind the office building.
The snowmobiles were covered with a piece of waterproof cloth and thick snow. Without Long Yu's good tracking skills, they might not have been able to find them.
They cleared the snow, then took off the waterproof cloth and saw five two-seat snowmobiles there.
That day, more than twenty people attacked them. With their number, there should be over a dozen snowmobiles here. However, Long Yu and Yao Ran only found five snowmobiles here.
There's something wrong here.
Long Yu and Yao Ran looked at each other for a moment and then quickly started searching. Soon, Yao Ran found something not far from the snowmobiles.
"Long Yu, come here and take a look at this."
Long Yu stopped what he was doing and went to see what she found.
Yao Ran pointed to the black badge on the snow and said, "Look at this."
Long Yu squatted beside her and then looked at the badge.
It was similar to the one Yao Yuechuan showed them, except the color was different. Yao Yuechuan's badge is platinum silver with a black emblem, while this one is black and has a white emblem.
Long Yu's expression sank the moment he saw the slowly flashing red dot on the black badge. Knowing what it was, he didn't waste any more time. He pulled Yao Ran with him and rushed to the office building as fast as he could.
Just when Yao Ran wanted to ask why he suddenly ran away, Long Yu hugged her, turned around, and protected her with his body. The next second, a deafening explosion sounded from behind.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Boom!
The blast wave shook the office building, destroying half of it, and large amounts of snow fell from the roof.
Long Yu protected Yao Ran with his body, but she still felt the heat wave in the air. Her heart beat fast as she waited for the ringing sound in her ears to disappear and for the dust to settle.
After a few seconds, Yao Ran's vision and hearing returned to normal. She groaned and felt Long Yu's heavy body pressing against hers.
Just when she was about to call him, Yao Ran smelled iron in the air. When she realized what it was, her dizzy mind suddenly cleared up. Despite the pain in her back, Yao Ran gritted her teeth and gently moved Long Yu's body away from her.
Yao Ran coughed violently because of the dust for a while and then called Long Yu in a hoarse voice, "Long Yu... wake up."
Seeing that he had no response, Yao Ran called him again, "Long Yu, can you hear me?"
After she called him several times, Long Yu finally moved. Seeing that he finally opened his
eyes, the heavy stone in Yao Ran's heart disappeared.
She examined his body and found blood all over his back.
